The rumors of Mr. Gladstone’s retire- ment and of Cabinet changes have sub- sided as quickly as they were raised. If they were put out as feelers, the response of the Liberal papers ail over the country has been that Mr. Gladstone’s personality is an indispensable necéssity te the con- tinuance of the Liberal party in power, and this acknowledgment of the import- ance of his personality is seized upon by the Conservatives as a sign of want of con- fidence in the party. The past week was ‘distinguished by a bitterness and an acri- ‘monious recrimination avusual in English ‘politics. After” Mr. Bright had de- ‘nounced the “* fair-traders” as lunatics and rogues, it was not surprising to hear Lord Salisbury taunting the Liberal Ministry with having eaten dirt in vain. Sir William Vernon Harcourt retorted that he did not understand the decencies of public discussion, But the speech which caused the most stir has been that of Lord Randolph Churchill, the dash- ing young leader of the so-called fourth | party, who declared that what Sir William ‘Harcourt had said did not much matter, ‘but that the implication of indecent repre- seniations frem other Liberals must be noticed. Lord Randolph Churchill styled Mr. Gladstone an ‘‘incendiary who had touched the iJowest depths of political cowardice and ingratitude.” Thereupon Mr. Broadhurst denounced Lord Randolph ‘Churchill as a miserable, contemptible ‘young man; Lord Wolverton toid him that ‘he was net worthy to black Mr. Gladstone’s boots, Nevertheless, Lord Randolph Churchill’s speech is well worth reading, especially in reference to America, and his comparison of American and English commercial prosperity, which are much in favor of the former and in advocacy of ‘* fair trade.” + —- « - cence The hiedin® OATS, The Lendon market for oats has been |quiet, and shows a decline of three pence ‘per quarter.

From a Boston circular of the 5th we quote:—‘*‘ There has been a gradual falling off in the trade, and the season fer active operations is drawing toaclose. Receipts, however, continue liberal, and find buyers at pretty full prices. About two-thirds of the mackerel fleet have arrived and are hauled up for the season, and the remainder will probably be home in another week. The total quantity of mackerel landed here and outports during the past week foots up 9,000 barrels, against 14,000 ne _previous week Total quantity landed at New Eng- land ports since May Ist, as compiled by the Boston Fish Bureau, is 321,43 bbls” against 240,961 bbls. for the same time last year, an imerease of 80,465 barrels. From the Provinces the ‘receipts are 55,669 barrels less than last year, which deducted from the increase in the Shore catch, still leave a supply of 44,796 bbis more than last year. Notwithstanding this gain, stocks are light and dealere wil! have no more than enough to carry them through the season. Prices of mackerel are with- eut material change. We quote P. E. Island at $8 to $8.50 for 3’s, $10 to $11 for 2’s, and $15 to $16 for 1’s, with sales of several lots at $8.50 and $10.50 for 3’s and 2’s. Large Nova Scotia 38 at $6.50 to $7. Shore mackerel are nearly all ont >f first hands, with sales in fare lots at $6.50 to $7 for 3's, $8.50 to $9 for 2’s, and $17 to $18 for 1’s. Codfish are in fair demand, with sales of N. S. Bank at $4.25 to 4.50, and Shore at $5 to $5.25 per qtl. To the Editor of the Exaininer. Dear Sir,—The Rev. Mr. Lawson, Editor of the Presbyterian, preached in the Presbyterian Church, Dundas, on the 9th of October, two good gospel sernions, to great satisfaction of his hearers, The people felt that, had his ecclesiastical per- secutors succeeded in their evil in regard to his usefulness as a minister, the Church of Christ would have lost a better and a more sincere man than if she had been de- prived of the services of some of his perse- cutors. But, thank heaven, political spite and evil intentions did not carry the day, and are not likely to de so in the future, as may be inferred from the decision of the venerable Commission of Synod. Yours, Dunpas. | £10,500,000 to the Country. It is cited as a remarkable fact that, since our National Policy was adopted, we are actuaily larger cusiomers, and a great deal betier payiog customers of the Mother Country than we were before. Or this point and on the importance of the colonial markets geverally to Eng- land, we are happy to have the testimony of ‘ Blackwood’s Magazine,”’. which bases its statements on the official records, given in the twenty-fifth report of the Commissioners of Customs. We quote: ‘** From it we find that, whereas the total value of our exports to foreign countries in 1880 was £147,806,207 and to British pos- sessions £75, 254,179, the increase to foreign countries over the exports of 1879 was £17,276,620, or only dS} per cent., against £14 "152,068, or 234 per cent., sent to our colonies and dependencies. Nor do these figures represent the accident of an abnor- mal year. In the last ten years the value of our exports to foreign countries has fallen from £171,815,949 to £147,806,267, while the value of our exports to British pos- sessions hes Serene from £51,250,213 to £75,254,179. Ta 1871 the proportion of exports to teat countries was 77 per ceut., to British possessions, 23; in 1880 the proportion stood at 66.3 te foreign countries, 33.7 to British possessions. The increase to Australia alone exceeds that to France, in spite of the much vaunted Cobden Treaty ; and the increase to India stands in the proportion of £9,500,000 to United States, from whose country we derived mofe than ono half of our extraneous food supplies. J is perhaps even more significant to know that the increase to our own North Americau colonies, £2,250.000. exceeded the increase to France, Italy and Belyium, all put to- gether. W hy then, with this inexhaustible mine of trading wealth waiting to be de- veloped within our own limits, are eur negotiators and statesmen to go cap in hand to foreign Governments, and beseech them of their clemency to permit our manufacturers acces;, on whatever terms, to their markets? The ball is now at our feet ; shall we allow it to roll away ?” The few lines we have put in italics may help to calm the fears of those who think that Canada’s Natioual Poliey is ruining the Mother Country. ~oa>> Immoral Literature. rs. Besant having felt aggrieved at scan ‘remarks made by the : Bishop of as “ brea ing down his lordship to prove his assertion. In his reply his lordship remarks :—‘‘ I say advisedly,.on the authority not only of the clergy, but of Taymen who mix among the working elasses, and krow their thoughts, thatthe sanctities of do- mestic life are not valued by men who adopt the atheistic and secularist hypo- thesis. A book that has been condemn- ed as utterly immoral in its teach- ings and tendency—for which I be- lieve, with whatever intention, you are responsible—is still publicly sold in the streets of Manchester, and was not long ago taken by a clergyman in Burnley out of the hands of a young unmarried Sunday scholar, who was thus taking poison into her nature. In Manchester, net many months since,47 men were apprehended by the police engaged in the most detestable practices, and I say distinctly and firmly, that if mens faith in a God and righteousness is destroyed, and they are taught that there is no hereafter, and no account to be given of their lives here, these doctrines and their natural and necessary outcome will destroy the moral health of life at its root and make purity an impossible virtue. I feel bound to lift up my voice against these terrible issues wherever I have the opportunity. The spreading canker of impurity in all classes of society, of which medical men sadly assure me, is the one thing that alarms me for the future of England.” A Free Trade Tariff. The Contemporary Review contains a paper from Professor Goldwin Smith on the tariff question, which has recently been the subject of animated controversy in the press and on the hustings in Eng- land. The Professor, though ‘a member of the Cobden Club, takes up the end- gels in behalf of “ fair trade” as against ‘free trade.” He tells the English people, in substance, that their pretence of being a free trade nation has never been more than a fraud, ivasmuch as Ehgland raises $100,- 000,000 annually by customs duties, which are, and always have been, dis- criminate in favor of English goods. The English, he says, have regulated their tariff according to what they thought to be their own interests, as have the people of other countries, . . Eugland, generations ago, took the lead in manufacturing, and by means of superior machiuery and improved inyen- tions established her industries and reaped a wonderful harvest. But mean- while the other nations have been learn- ing to provide for themselves and are defending themselves from English com- petition by tariffs. It was not reasonable to expect that other nations would per- petually abstaia from manufacturing in- i dustries.
