Hunilreds of marines and raw troops were engaged in unlonding hugo vans of ship stores and mess luggage, and tumbling them down the gangwaoy. The busy scene,was rendered still livelier by the appearance of tho Sixty-fourth and Onc- Hundred-and-Eighth Rogimenta by train.

He te ilterally over@helmed with work, Cabinet meetiays having been held almost dally for a month past, So rare ie it to meet Lim at any of the fashtonable resorts that & newspaper mentioned as a strange circumetance the other day that he was out walking in Kensington Gardens, Just what hie sentiments are in regard to the war no one secins tu know, although the Liberals ascribe to bin all that occult influence in Governuient affairs which, while proclaiming the strictest noutrality, persiate in mobilizing the army and in putting the feet ia communication with Constantinople. Whether or not ho ts deserving of so much credit cannot be gained frum any sdmis- sion of bie own, av, out of all her Majesty's Minls- tore, be is the only one whose tips have from Grat to last remained sealed. Even those prominent Conservatives who, {f anybody, might be supposed to be in the confidence of the Gov- ernment, stamimer when ssked to define exactly ibe Premier's position. It ie known, or claimed to be known, certainly, that ho is with the war party, but as to the fervor of bis convictions much that la believed by the poople is mere supposition, Some weeks ago Count Scebsch, «German diplo- mat, peblisled @ letter declaring that at the close of the Crimean war Disraeli came to Paris to TAKE LE3BONS YROM LLM $n Continentat politica, saying that be expected the Palmerston Ministry would soon go ont of power aud that he should wucceed to the Premiership. ‘The letter also charged Disraclt with being pro- Kusslag.

If Mr. Gladstone had carefully stadied how and by what means he could soonest lose bis popularity, he could not have deviecd a better plan than the one that he has latterly adopt- ed, Tho history of politics in America haa shown how easy it In for even the greatest states. men to relinquish all the prestize which they havo been tong years in building up; nor fs it. necessary to mention names when you heve anch striking instances In your own City of Chicagy, But in England, where [dean grow slowly and’ aro suppored to change with the moat stubborn reluctance, one would not expect to hear such wholesale denunelation of Willinm Ewart Gladstone as have burdened the public tongue cring the past two months.
