in the journal as it was introduced Illegally and the Democrats holding the reverse The amendment was lost by a party vote Mr Pitts then moved that Friday's message be received and read Mr Murphy

Ad LONDON April 25--Sir John Gond Parlamentary Secretary of the India Office stated in the House of Commons OM after- nooa that the Ameer of Afghanistan reports that the Ghlizal rebellion is not spreadiug and that his troops are meeting with suocow in their encounters with the rebels Mr Sexton asked the Hon WmSt John Fremantle Broderick Conservative member for the Guilford Division of Stirrey whether In a recent speech be had spoken of the Times' forgery Mr Parnell's letter Mr Broderick anewered: "Yee In addressing any meeting on this subject will uot Mince words but will call the letter Mr Parnell' In the absence of any action in a court of law to disprove the statement It is a popular desiguation to call the letter Mr Parmil's letter The justice of it can be left to the House and country" Conservative chum Mr Sexton itsked whether in view of the fact that Parnell bad deecribed the document- as a villainom and barefaced lorgery Mr Broderick was not committing A BREACH OF PRIVILIGN In so describing the letter Inasmuch as it was Imputing a deliberate falsehood to Mr Parnell Speaker Peel replied that the remarks of Mr Broderick did not refer to anything done by Mr Parnell in the House and therefore the matter did not come within the definition of breach of privilege The House then went into committee on the budget Mr Giadstone contended that the 'main proposals of the budget were at variance with sound financhd principlee Instead of being the humdrum budget which Mr Goschen promised it wee one to be re- membered in the future for goodpr for evil If there was anything good in it(the Unionists would have the credit and upon them would rest the responsibility for whatever was obectionable Among the proposals of the budget was one to change stamp duties which would facilitate businees upon local loans He would meantime give no unfavorable opinioff except to say that the concurrent creation of new per cent stock would be A GREAT DISADVANTAGIL Regarding the tobacco duties it was easier toreduce the duty than to get rid of it The manufacturer of tobacco would certainly be benefited but the reduction would never reach the consumer Regarding the Income tax the reduction ot a penny per pound would doubtless be a peculiar boon At the same time the proposal was against Bound financial principles because such a reduction should arise from a rigid system of public economy not at the expense of the sinking fund The House had been asked to reduce the fund from 9000000 to 5000000 pounds Serious reflection could not warrant a proceeding so opposed to the traditions so contrary to the intetests of the British nation It was the first thne that a 'proposal of this nature had been made in the history of the country and it was made when the country wm becoming richer than ever before He believed the country was adding about 100000000 pounds yearly to its savings yet they WERE ESKED TO MINE from the very moderate effort that had hitherto been made to provide a sinking fund in pursuance of a wise broad policy that was supported by all financial authority He hoped Mr Goschen would not reply at once but give the House a chance of hearing his linptial judgment upon the matter apart from political or party issues Cheers I Mr Goechen said he would reply later if Mr Gladstone were present Lord Randolph Churchill praised the "weighty remarks" of Mr Gladstone Spesking as a true friend of the Government heenust condemn the policy of making grants IN AID OF LOCAL TAXATION Did Mr Goschen think that these grants were compatible with national economy? Regarding the appropriation of the sinking fund he could add nothing to what had been-taid by Mr Gladstone in whose general criticisms of the budget he fully concurred He quoted from speeches made by Mr Goschen in 1885 in support of Mr Gladstone' financial policy He declared lhaiffr Goschen's budget had quashed all his hopes of public economy A judicious budget would have reduced the-military expenditures without impairing the efficiency of the army Be trusted that Mr Goseben would assent to a reconsideration of his proposals amending them on the basis of wiser finance 11' Mr Goodell said be felt that the onslaughts made upon him by the great man of financial orthodoxy and the latest brilliant recruit of the financial corm required a prompt reply First as to load loans he promised to consider the objeo tions to the issuing of new Mock for loans With reference to the tobacco duties he defended the reduction of the duty on the ground that the increase had not answered expectations having Checked consumption while it failed to bring the anticipated rove nue He was confident that in a few yowl the lose arising from the current year's reduetion would be recovered Mr Gladstone bad attacked the proposals to reduce the Memo tax and to suspend' a portion of the sinking fund as against recognized PRINCIPLES OF MURCIA He (Goschen) could see no force In this general charge In taking a penny off the Income tax the Government would benefit a class upon whom there was mach tuniam pressure Be adhered to all his former views as to the desirability of reducing the national debt but he contended that his present proposals to relieve tax payers and maintain the strength of the army and navy were more real economies than thoee sug(Ittalctild by his opponents Mr Cremer cal) asked Mr Goschen if he knew tha the reduction of the duty on tobacco wpuld throw out of employment several thousand men engaged In the tobaqco trade in London Mr Goschen replied that be bad arranged to confer on that subject with delegate from the worktnel themselves Sir John Lubbock Liberal Unionist and Right Hon Hugh Childers Liberal criticised the budget on the grounds -taken by Gladstone After further discumion the budget resolutions were agreed to A GOPERSKRET actiata Loewe April 25--It Its reported in the lobbies of Parliament that the law officers of thecrovra have advised the Government that
