II contains fifty-eight peges, and is timilar in tbe excellence ot ile style to Mr, Oladitone'a pstnphlat on tbe Bul- garian atrooities. The brochure it under two beads. The first is " The History of an Idea," in which Mr. Gladstone summarises the following condition* under which alone, in his view, Hemo Bole became possible : (1) Tbe abandonment of the hope that Par- liament could serve u a poatible IsgUIative instrument for Ireland ; (2) the unequivo- cal and oonstitanonal demand of the Irish members ; (3) the possibility ot dealicg with Scotland in a timilar way in circum- stances of eqoal and equally clear desire. Mr. Gladstone then paaws on to defend himself from tbe charge of having sprang tbe Home Bole meaaun upon hia friend*. Beplying to the obargea of Lord Hartington and Mr. Chamberlain tbat be had oooeeived tbe idea precipitately, and to the charge of Mr. Bright that he bad concealed it unduly, be denies that il ia ths duty of a Minister to make known even to bit colleagues every idea lormiog in bis mind, which would tend to conlubo and retard instead ot aid businsss. He continue* What ia true It, tbat I had not publicly and in principle condemned it ; but I had neither adopted nor rejected it, and for the vary simple reason that it waa not ripe either for adop- tion or for rejection." Mr. aiadelooe then goea on to point oat that daring all ths earlier years ol bis public lit* the alleraa- livee ware, repeal on tbe one band and en the other the relief of Ireland from ber grlevaneea. " II was not possible," he aays, " at tbat time to prognosticate bow in a abort time Parliament would stumble and almoat writhe under its oonitaotly accumulating burdeaa or to premise tbat it would eventually provs incapable ot meeting the wante af Ireland. Evidently there wae a psriod when Irish patriotism, aa represented by O Council, looked favorably upon tola alternative policy and had no fiitd oonelntiia at lolhe absolute necessity lor home government, and aeemed to allow that measorea founded on justice to Ireland might possibly soffioe to meet the neeeeaily of tbe ease." Il was as early aa 1871, Mr. Gladstone Bays, tbat bs took tbe first step toward plating tbe eontreveray en its true basis. He opposed Mr. Bolt's scheme because the alternative described la ibe last paragraph had not been eibausted, bat sven at Ibat time he did not close tbe door agaiust a recognition of Ibe qnealion ia a different atate ot things, for instead of denouncing the idea ot Horns Bole at one in ite eisenoe destructive ot the noity of the Empire, in tbe following words bs accepted the assurance g.vsn to Iba con- trary : " Let me do the promotara of tbii movement tbe fullest justice, always speak- ing under tha conviction, Ibey moat empha- tically declare, nd a* I fully believe tbem, tbal tbe union of Ibeec kingdoms under Hsr Mtjealy ia to be enaintained, bat thai Parliament ia to be broken np." Similarly in 1874 Mr. Gladatone accepted without qualifloatloo the principle tha) Home Bole bad no nseetaary connection witb separa- tion. Coming to I h electoral campaign cf 188S Mr. Gladstone says bia great objscl waa to do nothing to binder the prosecu- tion cl tha question by the Tories, bat to me bit beet iffirte to impress ths pabllo mind with tbe importance and urgency of the question. In tha second portion of the pamphlet Mr. Gladstone begins draw- ing certain leasone from tbe elections as tbey sffeol tbe Liberal party. He esti- mates the loaa to the Liberal party from tba Unionist sobiam at two seven tbt of Ibe whole, but this fraction is distributed, be poials oat, very unequally among tbe classes. It baa commanded nve-eixths, bs aaya, ol the Liberal peers, hot nol more than one-twentieth ot tb* Liberal working- men. Mr. Gladstone points oul that evsa now tbe Tories have failed to secure an absolute majority, and draws tbe final eonelnsion tbat at ths first moment Liberalism is agsia uniied il mnit again become predominant. Mr. Gladatone sees) further ground for hope In ths abate- ment tbat baa already taken place in tha Tory opposition. " We hear no mere pot- valiant language," he aays, " no mors of Ibe Hottentots and no more of the famous twenty yean, daring which Parliament wae lo grant special powsra for home gov- ernment to Ireland, and at tha end ot which time, in a larger or less degree, Ibe coercive lawa might be repealed, and mea- sorcs of local self government bs entsr- tainsd." Mr. Gladstone then goes on to point oat thai tbe Unioniela areeJready pledged to an immediate and large conces- sion, many ot them on snob a scale tbal tbey declare themselvea favorable to tbe principle ol Home Bole, and only opposed lo " the awkward and perverse manner in which il waa handled by the late Adminia- ration. ' " Look at the qoeatioo," Mr. Gladstone eontinnss, "which way we will, tbe aaoaa ot Irilh self-government livea and moves and oan hardly tail to receive more lite, mon propulsion from the bande of thoee who have been ile saoosstfol op- ponents in one of Its particular forma. Il will ariae aa a wounded warrior aometimsa arises on tbe field ol battle and ataba to the heart some soldier of the victorious army wbo baa been exalting over him." Mr. Gladstons then looks at the election from a geographical point ot view. He points out thai sven in tbe cue of England what we have la not rosily a rafasal, but is only a slower acknowledgment. The cfftel ot all this on Ireland be describes aa follows : " All the currsnta ot tbe political atmos- phere aa between tba two ialaidt bsve bean eleanaed and sweetened, for Ireland 10 w know! what she never bat known before, that even ander her defeat a dsep liflol Otvteinn runs all through Iba Kog- lleh nation in ner*favor ; that there is not tbrongboat tbe land a parish or villsge where there are not hearts besting in anison with ber heart, where there are not minds earnestly bant OD tbe acknowledg- ment and permanent establishment of her claims to national ezietenee." " Under those happier circumstances what ! there, 1 ' Mr. Gladstoni goee on to aak, "in separation that would tend lo make II advantageous to Ireland T Aa an island witk many hun- dreds of miles ot coast, with a weak marine and a people far more military than nautical ia its habile, ot email popolallnn and limited in bar preMnt ntounea, why sboald the expose herself to tb* rinks of invasion, and to the certainty of an ei or- moaa cost ia Ibe enatioa and maintensnoe of a navy for defenoa ralbsr than remain under tbe abield ol the greateat maritime power in tbe world, bound by every oontid- eratioa ot honor and interest to gntrd ber ?

Any of tbe teams would compare favorably with tbe ooelly pairs driven by men of wealth. Kaeb animal waa covered withanettiag ot colored thread, and on these dainty guards against moiqnito aiingi tbe women ot the tribe had worked por- traits and forest and field iceoes. Hii oanvae-oovered waggons followed tbe cara- vansaries, and each vebicls was drawn by two boraea. About thirty valuable bines were led in a pro3eesion four abreast by two stalwart young man whe wore black velveteen jaeketa, brown corduroy trousers, wide-brimmed gray soft hats and scarlet wool shirta, with loose flowing scarfs of dark- blue bilk. No ball was mads in this oily by these bou-tou wanderere, but when they arrived at Lyons' farm, west ot Waver I y Park, tbey went into camp. They obtained from Olara Thornton, " The Hermiuees ol Ibo Farma," permission to use a small grove through which a sparkling brock rippled. Here they ereoled scow-white shslter and wall tenta, lighted tirea ander big iron pots suspended from a pole stretched on forked sticks, and then awoke the families sleep- ing in tbe eiravansariea. In a lew minutes several women of middle age, three vener- able and swarthy dames, acd a score of yoong women and girls in their " teens " popped out cf the caravansaries. BOILS bad on Icose wrappers, all were in their bare fsel, and none had their hair done up.

Coffee, bread and cold ham were eerved for breakfast, which was prepared by tbe women who travelled in the canvas-topped waggons. Arthur Ma) ti 5! d ia the leader of the band.

All the women bad escaped to Michigan with my father, who bad purchased land there. He died in October, ItHiS, and when I arrived at the camp during ine winter of 1866 there were lae than thirty of the original band there. " Early in the spring of IWi'J.af ter repaint- ing all the waggons, I drsw from tbe bank the money father bad deposited in my name and etarted for cur Virginia home.

She had the most beautiful yellow hair I ever aaw, and beriyea were large and dark blue. My wife pleaded with me to let the atranger remain witb tbe tribe, and when I saw tha baby I consented, for il waa a lovely little girl.

The Sylvan Ulen waa coming down tbe river only a tew hundred feel above, and her oaptatn waa mnabiurprised at ths sudden appearance of the iron monster.

Acting Deputy Itegister Weil blaahingly toid tbem tbal it tbat waa their " raoke: " uo license waa needed. " I'm so glad," said one of the gentlemen, " we'll get married right here. My friend here, the Rev. William Frizsle, of Toronto, Canada, will lie the knot." Mr. Frizala stepped into an adjoining room, aod in a minute the Rev. llnury James Hamilton, ol Mnllioa llill, N J., and Miss Catherine Ellen Brown, of Scotland, were made one. Tbe ceremony waa wit- nessed by Mrs. Catherine Hamilton, the mother cf tbe groom, and Health Inspector Lucas, wbo waa " roped in" for tbe occasion. The bride aaid the was 21 years old and wae born in India. Tbe groom ia a native of Philadelphia. Hs ia ten f can older. None ol the party would talk abeol tha courtship, bul il is believed thai the contracting par- ties were cousins and tbal tbe hasty mar- riage was due to a desire of having Mr. Frizz'e, whom they happened to meet ia tbe city, perform the ceremony.
