The scheme further provides that Ireland shall have contvol of the local police, and requires Parnell to furnish guarantees that the rights of the minority and tho interest of landlords hall be protected.

SS wean een an | Sir William Vernon Harcourt and George J Goschen support Gladstone’s Irish scheme, ville approve Gladstone’s scheme. Joseph Chamberlain and Sir Charles Dilke avd the Marquis of Hartington are wavering in their objections to the scheme. i A despatch to the Jrish Times saya: " Should the Queen’s speech on the open- ing Of Parliament not allude to the local government of Ireland, Gladstone will move an amendment to the address, stating that such a measure for Ireland is neces- sary. The Parneilites will support the motion, Gladstone will then take office, and introduce a bill granting home rule to [reland,”’ The correspondent of the Dublin Express telegraphs as follows:—“‘There is no longer any doubt that Gladstone has ap- proached members of the royal family re- garding the Irish reform, and is seeking to enlist the Prines of Wales’ help in removing obstacles thereto.” Oa the other hand, enother despatch says: The Pall Mall Gazette having alleged that Earl Spencer had acyniesced, Karl Spencer telegraphs ‘no scheme of home rule has received my approval.’ Childers tele- graphs, he has no knowledge whatever of Gladstone’s alleged proposals. Sir Charles Diike says: It is premature to discuss the subject. Mr. Healy says he cannot ex- press his opinion on the subject before his party meets. Later stili, Mr. Gladstone is reported to bave said: ‘° My reply in regard to the Standard’s statemen's applies also to those of Pall Mall Gazette and Daily News. Althongh those statements were unautho- rized, proposals may be conveniently can- vased. Only an Irish parliament will meet the case. Local councils, eto,, would be useless. The right to veto acts of the Irish ministry would be an illusion. I propose instead the exercise of sovereign power on the advance of a minister res- ponsible to the lomerial Parliamen?. The suggestion of an Prish Privy Council is un- worthy of attention. The Privy Courcil survives only as a relic, the substitute of a Cabinet. The questions of commerce and police are difficult ones, but with limitations i believe Home Rule may safely be granted, and that it wceuld tend to raise the character. of Irish members, Eari Granville being asked his opinion of report- ed ‘Home Rule scheme, said : ‘ Gladstene’s message in regard to the Standard’s alle- gation is svfticient. it is neediess for myself to say more.’ ” It is further statei that a movement has been imavgurated, in Londen, which in- volves a scheme of revenge and prescription for the Irish. The movement, it is said, grew out of a meeting of the nations! lib- eral club of those liberal members elect wiose majorities have been reduced by the esting of the Irish vote for the tories and of those liberal candidates for parlia- mentary seats who were defeated by the sime tactics. Great bitterness against the Irish was displayed in all the speeches Many of the speakers said that their own Irish workmen on their farms and estates and in their mines and factories, whem they had provided with sustenance in troublous times, agitated and voted against their masters at the bidding of strangers. Other speakers declared that it was easily proven by statistics and by every man’s own observation that the chief employers of Irish labor in Great Britain were liberals. These were found all over the land, among the great mine owners and iron masters of the Black country, the great mill owners of Manchester and -Lanceater, the great mana- factures of Birmingham, the great shipping merchants of Liverpool and London, and the great ship builders of the Ciyde and Tweed. These great liberal proprivtoras had free'y employed Irish artiaans and laborers, and aco sd§ able proportion of the wages paid by ‘he liberal masters to the [rish had gone to strengthen the national league agitation. Therefore, the speakers declared, it would be suicidal folly and madness to continue to nourish such vipora in their bosoms. The result of the meeting was the adoption,by a unanimous vote, of a resolution pledging each gentleman present not to employ Irish labor in future, and to gradually, but as epeedily «s possible, discharge all Irish workmen now employed by them. e+ <> tm New Goops rrom THK LonpoN MARKET. —Last instalment for this season.
