Russia’s Continued Hostility to the Berlin Treaty. THE SPANISH ASSASSIN SANE. —-——_ {BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.] Loxspox, Nov. 1, 1878, Mr, Gladstone, in s speech delivered to-day at hy}, Beclined to give the government the confidence they Beked om the Afghanistan question, and com- plained ef thoir withholdthg authoritative in- Sormation. Reviewing the information which Was obtainable he showed that the relations ‘with Afgbavistan were satistactory during bis admin- tstration, and he justified the displeasure of the Ameer at the British occupation of Quettah. He Pointed out that the woak power which a pro- Sessed!y chivalrous government threatened to punisn for receiving a Russian embassy was jess culpable than the wader of tho Embassy. Th ding of the Embassy was apparently a breach of Russ engagements to England, but he feared Rusma would cite as justification the uniriendly Douduct of the British government Mr. Glad- Bene declared that to saddie India with the ex- penses of a defence against imaginary dangers Would be an injustice as monstrous as any Fecorded in the history of tne world. Mr, Gladutene, ip conclusion, asked the people to Compare the stato of England in 1873 with that in 1878. He energetically ndea the Geneva arbitration, and thought it far better to make a nation of 40,000,000 a friend than one of 80,000,000 an enomy. What they were 20w protest- ‘ng against was not merely a series of false stops, but & new systom of government by personal responsi- Dility of the Sovereign—only too likely t Pp the foundations of monarchy. WHAT WILL RUSSIA DO? The rumor that the Porte had sents noteto the Powers complaining of the formation of armed bands in Balgaria is, at least, premature. Such Feprosentations wero made to Prince Labanof, Russian Ambassador to Constantinople, bat @ denied positively the correctness of the Qssertion upon which the reprosestations were founded, and the Porte has aphed to the Gov- ernor of Salontca to verify the previous information. Tho Times, editorially commenting on the foregoing Genial of Prince Labanof, says:—‘‘We can understand % as referring only to she complieny of Russian “im the movement The tact of Abo movement is beyond al doubt; Ber would it be easy in the present posture of Affairs to exaggerate ite importance.
