WHAT SALISBURY SAYS. Lancashire, challenged Gladstone to give the facts concerning the Hawarden inter- view. He said a similar vague dark policy on thej jart of the liberals toward Home Rulers would be imposssible in the future. Lord Salisbury asked what right Messrs. Healy and SeXton and others) who were trying to hound Parnell to earth had said Lord Salisbury, the enthusiasm of the Healyites is disinterested, it is worthy of the highest applause, but if itis merely a screen for political maffeuvers it is worthy of the deepest condemnation. Lord Salis- bury proceeded to denvunce the Gladstun- ians for cffering the chief secretaryship for Ireland to Parnell while the foulest things were slleged of him. Gladstone's recent denial of Parnell’s statements did not amount to much, It was due largely tu the brilliant lines of Gladstone’s own imegination and ought to be received with Fa‘nell, Lord Salisbury declared that the land question would be a subordinate one if the Irish parliament had control of the police, because control of the police includes contro! of all legislation in regard to pro- perty. Giladstone’s proposals, his lordship asseried, were ingenious and he was sur- pr sed that Parnell’s virtuefhad compelled him to refuse them. Had they been car- ried into effect every landlord in Ireland would conclude that it would be very ad- vantageous bargain to sell his land at one- tenth its present value. GLADSTONE S$ REPLY. The following is the text of Gladstone's reply to Parnell’s manifesto to the Irish people ; It is not part of my daty to canvass the manifesto of Me. Parnell, which | have read this morning, and I shall not apply to it a single epithet; for I am not his judge in any matter, and believe myself to have shown in the matter of the Pigott commis- sion that I have no indisposition to do him justice. But the first portion of the docu ment consists vf a recital of propositions stated to have been made by me to him, and of objections entertained by him to these propositions, The Irish as well as the British public has a right to kiw whether | admit or deny the accuracy of that recital, and, in regard to every oue of the four points stated by Mr. Parnell, I at once deny it. (1) The purpose of the conversa*ion was pot to meke known intended proposals. No single suggestion was offered by me to Mr. Parneli as forma), or as unanimous, or us final. It was a statement perfectly free and without prejudice, of the points in which either myseif or such of my col- leagues a3 1 had been able to consult in- clined generally to believe that the plan of 1886 for home rule in Ireland might be im- proved, and as to which [ was desirous to learn whether they raised any serious ob- jection in the mind of Mr. Parnell. (2) To no one of my suggestions did Mr. Parvell offer a serious objection, much less did he signify, ia whole or in part, that they augured the proposel of a measure which would not satisfy the national aspirations of the Jrish race. According to hia present ac- count, he received from me in the autumn of i889 information of vital changes adverse to Ireland in our plans for home rule, and kept this informatioa secret uati’, in the end of November, 1890, and in connection with a totaily independent peigonal matter, he pro. duces it to the werld. (3) I deny that I made the statements which his memory ascribes to me or anything sub- stantially resembling them, either on the re- tention of the Irish members or the sett'ement of the land or agrarian difficulty, or on the control of the constabulary, or on the appoint- ment of the judiciary. As to the land in par- ticular, I am not conscious of having added anything to my public declarations, while as to the the Conntvy Court judges and resident magistrates I made no suggestion whatever. (4) The conversation between us a — ly confidental, and in my jalgment anc, & : understood, in that of Mr. Parne 1 to publish even atrne account of it is to break the sea] of confidence which alone renders pulitical co-operation possible. (5) Every sugg: stion made by me was ~~ written memoranda. The whole purport - my conference was made known by me, in the Se cs eaten edaseatnaenren LY EXAMINER, - - - - ’ strictest confidence, when it had just taken place, to my colleagues in the Cabinet of L¥S6, i I assured them that in regard to none of them had Mr, Parnell raised any serious difli- oulty whatever, (6) Neither Mr. Parnell nor myself was bound by this conversation to absolute final acceptance of the propesitions then canvassed, but during the year which has since ¢ lapsed I, never received from Mr. Parnell any intima tion that he had altered his views ‘regarding any of them. : oT I have now done with the Harwardea con versation and conclude with the following, simple statements :— a _ (1) Thave always held, in public as well as in private, that the National party of lreland ought to remain entirely independent of the Liberal party of Great Britain. (2) It isour duty, and my duty ia perticular, conformably to the spirit of Grattan and O'Connell, to study all the adjustments in the | great matter of home rule which may tend to | draw to our side moderate, equitable oppon- | ents ; but for me to propose any measure, except such as Ireland coulJ approve on lines already laid down, would be fatuity as regards myself and treachery to the. Irish nation, in whom, even by the side of Mr. Parnell, I may claim to take an interest. | TO SAVE IRELAND, Tn . ; Timothy Harrington on the 2ad inst, | Leahy, McCartan, Justin McCarthy, Peter! received the following cablegram, signed | by Kedmond and Kelley ; | r : } , sveturn to England at once, if you want!

Vernon Harcourt has written a letter in which he conffims McCarthy's statement made at the Parnellite meeting relative to what took place between them at the time of McCarthy's recent visit to him. Sir William says he did not regard Parne!l's proposals as practical. He told McCarthy the condition of secrecy was in- admissable. The document accepting the proposals could be of no value to Parnell, or any one else unless the contents were made known. Sir William says the state- ments of Parnell relating to his (Sir William’s) views and conduct were opposed to truth. | Endorsed by the best authorities in the world i | | Nearly 14,000 in use and good accounts ‘given of them.
