He sets out with congeatas lation on the abundanes of the trish harvest, aud with an intimation that tie Miusters aro seriously considering the condition of the country and the state of the law, with a view to xe aimending the hitter, and) thus: sinetlor- ‘ating the former, that cantty and Justlea wight go hind in land with prosperity and contentnent, ‘The Government, ho says, Wil not seruple to advise such mensures as WHI bring about such a result,—from which ft may be Inferred that the Government means to deal with the Irish question In Athervugh aud radieat spirit, But, pending stich setticinent as ho fndieates, he says that the Government 1a detormined to protect life und property fn Lroland nt all hazards, “The imatntenaice of. publle order,” he sak, “should be considered before the improves ment uf the Jaw.” ‘Lo which those to whom ho referred a8 resorting to WMeglthnate tulle ences in [refand inay retort that it is the ex- istence of unjust lows, the want of Improve: ment in those unjust laws, or thelr repent, which have ted to the menace, dnthuidation, and erie to which he alludes, It is appar- ent, however, that Mr. Gladstone does not agree with tha Lrigh landlords tliat: the pres- out elremmstances require a resort to co ercive menstires, oud that he belleves that tho Government can protect life and property with the powers now possessed by It, fur he says tint the Government will not antlelpate vu contingency where it may be compelled to ask for an Snerease of powers Ho adds, asa kind of qualificatton, atl prob- ably for tho purpose of soothing some of his Whig followers who have become hysterieat over Irish liwleaness, that the Government will not shrink from the obligations doyaly- ing upon tt. In all tits there fs nothing detk alt, of course, and My, Gladstona las prot~ ably not yet made up his mind what course to pursue, and has purposely avolded being so, When he comes to the Busuto war hy fads himself on dangerous ground, and treads lightly, Ho passes with an expression of regret that such a thing exists. ‘The Indian and Afghan questions aro also referred to very briefly, ‘The Governinent has not care rled gut Sts purpose In regard to these ques tions, but then Mr. Giudstone appeals to the Lrltigh taspayer when he intimates that there has been a reduction in expenditures, und that 20,000 troops have been withdrawn from Afghanistan, Let Englishmen ex. tract satlsfuction from tho statement that the cosdiign of Arghiulslan ly more Lope which he’ fal if they can. ‘Thero has hardly heen a Britsh Premier who ever spoke on this subject who did not uso words of the same import; yet the queatlon, like the Irish auestion, is constantly recur- ring to bother Uritish Ministers and Hrttish olichis, and to embarrass British Premlers who would like toe make happy speeches at Lord Mayors’ baaquets Uf they could with any ehanee of belng considered otherwise than Mark Tapleylst. Mr, Gladstone was moro definit in hts ref crenvo to the Eastern question (iin on any topie touched on, Ile held with Lord Beas consfuld—and Mr. Gindstone could hardly feel comfortable tn agreelyg with his: great rival—that ft was England's futerest that the Treaty of Berlin should bo upheld, asd that England should not shriik from the obligations imposed on it thereby. He was right in saylng that tls. ctforts tn trylng to tunellorate the condition of the Turkish sth- jects and to amend the lnws of the Ottoman Kinptre, if suceessfil, would redowni to the benetitof Turkey, and that fa making the effort he showed England was not the ene- wy but the friend of Turkey. Lt ls evident, however, that Mr, Gladstone is not sathsiled with the action of tho other Powers which wero represented at the Berlin Conference, and) that he eludes at tha delay which thelr indvetsion or tnstneertty has caused: and yet he does not, nor does the Cabinet of which he fy the elief, wish to taku the responst- Dility of ndvising that England should try alone and single-handed to force Turkey to fultill Its International obligations and: its obligations to ils subjects.

If such a result is Not actually contemplated, and the purpose is only to cover up the Jnenpacity of the Dem- ocratic campaign management, then It amounts only to 0 stock-jobbing scheme, Lin elther event, however, the proposition de mands prompt and emphatle renuneiatlon by the men who are regarded a3 the leaders of the Democratic party, Any sertous effort to deprive Garfield and Arthur of the Electoral yoto of New York, which the people of that State have declared shail by given them, cannot reach fruition short of civil war, Che Republicans, who represent the popular majority and the ma- terfal strength of the country, will not sub- mit to such a conspiracy, no matter what nieans may be employed to glve it the sem- Diance of vitallty. ‘The reading people of tho country know that the Republican candidates have been deprived of the Efectoral votes of several of the Southern States by a system of fraud and terrorism. ‘That atone is hard enough to endure, It would not be endura- ble if the eltizens of. the remainder of the country were not numerous and intelligent enough to overcome the effect of Southern fraud. Any attempt to add to this mass of Lnjustlee the thoft uf a State which holds the balance of power and was carried In spite at a Democratic organization that has mnain- tatned Itself for years by fraud, would exelto a resistanee not Jess-deternitned thon that Which secession encountered twenty years ngo.

Surely great polltteal campaign was never before tutrusted to the innds of suehan Ignoramus as William IL Barnum, WATTERSON’S WAIL, We print elsewhere Mr. Henrl Watterson’s wall, Like all of Mr Watterson’s walling, itis purely emotional. It Ineks mathematles, facts, logical sequenee,‘or sound reasoning, in which qualities, Mr, Watterson sald, in lis North tmertean Tevtcw artice, that the Southern stutesmen, of course includiuyg lnimaself, are sadly defieient. Myr, Watterson devotes the first part of his wall to the Dem- oeratic party, Ilo graphically likens tt to a tlekety old carryall, He says tt is “very obsolete and very cranky. It his certainly Wabbled Jn Its gait and zone astray, tthe any. thmeserver.” He has tried, to the extent of his poor means, “while holding fast to tts gout traditions, to set ft on a career suited to the sHered times we Ive fu.” but in vain, Ilo fs fust ns emotional in fits estimate of tha, Republican party. ‘The tendencies of that party, he thinks, are bad, and the designs of the Rudleal politicians are wicked. "As a pretender,” says Mr. Watterson, “tha Re- publican party 1s an dnmmoral agent. As an organigin, tt isa menace,"—to the Soll South and the red-shirt bulldozer. Henry then goes on with his walling: “It has debauched atl our modes of thinking, and {3 bringing tnta play an enginery, and the tools to hundle ft, of the most dangerous character. It may sueceed, and probably will succeed, in supplanting the antique In Southorn fife and thought with that whieh fs Northorn and modern, and, In doing this, it will oxtirpate much that the South were well quitofy but it will supply a vactiiin wilh a deal thatean In no wise improve the people or the country, und will tose tha South itn virtue moro than ibwill gain In eraft and thrift’? . All this ls very tonching, very senthnental, and very emotional, but, tnluckily, it is not true, Stilt it constitutes the reasons why Mr. Watterson cannot aet with the Repub- ican party, and we imust respect them, though they are tho rensons of a poetical and somewhat Inckadalsical polltieiaun, In- stead of a man of common sense, Nor shall we quarrel with Mr. Watterson’s de- ‘eision, Iu sa “May not aman, may not a party, be useful In opposition 2” Certalnty, Mr. Watterson, You can bo of more use op posing tho Republican party than favoring it. “ What sort of a Governmentshould wehave If all of us belonged to ono party 2” Mr, Watterson ought to know, for his white friends fis the South all belong to one party and will not tow the other party, whieh Is in the majority, to elect Its candidates, What sort of a party weshould havels clearenough to sco [fhe will-consult tho infamous frauds and corruptions $n Qeorgta, Mississtppl, and South Carolina, and the manner in which his party, haying contrel, stuits ballot-boxes and bulldozes negroes, Me saya: “The old car- ryast was never more rickety than now, May bo it will go to pieces.’ Nevertheless ho Is going to stick to it, AN right, Mr. Wutter- son. By so dolng you ean bo of great service to the Republican party. So long as you let tho Bourbons drive tho old earryall and keep the Democratic party together so long your old carryail will bo distaneed by the spanking Republiean team. If you shoutd join the Republicans ‘you could not be of half the service to them or have halt tha Influence that you ean exert by remaln- Ing in tho Democratis organizintion. So go on arraylng the Democratle party against all the real interests of the party, keep up your Solid South, continue your ballot-bos stutt- Ing and bulldozing, keop on polsoning the intnds of the Southern people agalnst tho North, and tha Republleans will keep on thrashing you over and over again til your old carryall goes wlio pleces and $s left In the mud past all repair, At the sanio thine one can hardly help pitying the child of emo- ton, and gush, and poctry continually buttlag lus head agatnst hard facts and stern logic, It doesw’t InJuro the facts any, but it Istrough on the head. THE DISTRIBUTION OF HIGH PLACES, 'Thé Cinelnnatl Commeretal has been fine duiging Uself fn certain yatieinations con- corning the bestowal of offices, ‘merely to nid to the stovk of general information,” and not with the authority of'a prophet, Some of Its suggestions are timely nnd sensible; others are governed rather by desire than Judgment, Asto Gen.

But wo doubt whethor ho on- tertalus any ambitlon In that direction. It is much more likely that, in ease Gen, Grant shall dechie to retnter public fife, tho position of Minlster to tha Court of Be James would bo in overy way more congenial to him than Beeretary of State, and that should ba open to hin equally with a Cabinet place, It would be still more creditable to the Natlon if Congress should erente n life positlon for Gen, Grant in con- nection with the army, suchas ield-Mar- shal or Captaln-General, which shonid attach to him in history and provide for him during life Ina manner becontng to Ls em! nent services {n tie past, ‘The Commerclat ia In error, howover, in assuming that John Shorman should be and will bo retalned as Secretury of tho Treasury, Mr, Sherman hhuself evidently recognizes: the embarrassinent whieh such a determina- tion would put upon the new President, since he has written a letter indicating his willlngness to return to tho Senate in caso the Ohio Legislature shall indicate 0 prefereyco for him, President Curfleld can hardly retain Sherman consistently untesa he were also to retain Secretary Schurz, for Schurz Lis uot been less succy ss: ty but they would bo 4 ful in his Deparcment than Sherman in the ‘Treasury. ladeed, Me.
