Gladstene Discusses Home Rule. Tue Buffalo, N. Y., Cuwrier prints the following: —A little over four weeks ago, John J. McBride, of this city, wrote a let- ter to Mr. Giadstone, enclosing a list of names that had been signed to a memorial circulated by McBride, expressing sympa- thy with the cause of home rule for Ireland. This list included the names of President Harrison, Cardinal Gibbons, Speaker Carlisle, Vice-President Morton, Arch- bishop Ryan, Secretary Blaine, and a large majority of members of both houses of congress. A few days ago, McBride re- ceived from Gladstone the letter published below. Every word of it from address to signature was written by his own hand: House or Commons, Lonpox, April 12. Dear Sir,—I have the honor to acknowledge your letter of March 22, and the remarkable list appended to it of those distinguished citi- zens ot the United States who have testified through the memorial you mention their in- terest in the condition of Ireland and their desire for just aud reasonable acknowledg- ment of her national claims and aspirations. I rejoice not only te think but to know that throughout the wide confines of the race to which we all belong there is an overwhelming preponderance of sentiment in faver of that acknowledgment. At home the judgment has been constitutionally recorded by Ireland her- self, by Scotland and by Wales, representa- tives of all three being in favor of home rule by a majority of three or four to one, and founding ourselves on evidence of elections which have taken place since the general elec- tion of 1886, we firmly believe that England herself, were the opportunity now afforded her by dissolution? would record a verdict decis- ively in accord with those of the other por tions of the United Kingdom and of the Anglo-Saxon race at large. Kneouraged by these indications at home and abroad and by the wise advice of their representatives in Parliament, the Irish people show an indisp»sition to crime and out- | raye not less remarkable than their determi- tion to carry forward their cause to its suc- cessful consummation, now retarded by the votes of men who do not represent the real sentiment of the community. lt is a further satisfaction to me to include in this acknow- ledgmént the local but authoritive manifesta- tions from America, only less remarkable than what has proceeded from the centres and has had the illustrious sanction of the President himself. This very day 1 have received a communication in the same spirit with yours from the Legislature of Nebraska, one fur- ther indication of sentiment and desire which prevail throughout the vast domain of the United States. Finally, I rejoice to be pat in possesseion of such declarations at a mo- ment when your great country is about to celebrate on the 30th instant the centennial anniversary of the inauguration of George Washington, the first President of the Ameri- can Commonwealth. I have been requested f:om Chicago and elsewhere to intimate an assurance of my participarion in your national joy. Itisa real and grateful participation, tor the statesmen of the American revolution have taken their place once for all among the greatest political instructors of the world. George Washington was their acknowledged and illustrious head, and to him and them [ have long felt that [ owed no trivial part of my own public education. Long, without limit of length, may that Union flourish under the blessing and favor of God. with the foun- dation of which their names are inseparably associated. Ihave the honor to remain, My dear sir, Your most ebedient and faithful W. E. GLADSTONE. b~eoh+-2 rr Charlottetown Markets. There was a good attendance at the market to-day.

Olaf Wuglund, one of the few English speaking people among the Danmark’s passengers, has arrived in New York. In conversation with a reporter he made a statement that before the accident occurr- ed one of the Norwegian immigrants told him he overheard a conversation in the of- ficers’ quarters. One of the ship’s officers had said to the others, in an apartment, he thought the vessel would never reach New : York. Her machinery was in bad order, had not received the care it should have before the steamer sailed, the pumps were broken, and, in case of accident, would be found of little service in throwing out water. Wuglund further said the vessel’s coal bunkers were afire on two occasions before the machinery gave out. He also said of seven lifeboats of the Danmark used intransferring the passengers from the Danmark to the Missouri, only two were manned by the officers of the Dan- mark. ~The other five were manned by Norwegian immigrant sailors, among the passeagers of the Danmark. Wuglund was loud in his praise of the captain and crew of the steamer Missouri. VOL, 24.—NO, 129. Local and Gther Items. Earty Prantine.—Mr. A.

It is estimated that Barbados will produce 10,000 puncheons more than the crop of last year, which was probably the largest previous crop on record. This will make the total Barbados product for the year 55,000 puncheons.—.S/. John Sun.
