LONiKiN. Jan. 24.-The seerets of the Ministry
__bk--MIK the details of their iiroj*rnmme for the
com inf. sis. ion hnve been well kept thus far. Not
? day BBflBta without revelations, but these reve?
lations reveal too little or too much; they Br?
too rtlM or Kio preeise. In the former ease they
?ie obviously mwWSStB', in the latter th<-y eontr.i-.ict
aaeh o'.if r I hear to-day a new version from
s__ authority whi.li ught to lie authoritative.
Fir-t, Mr Ql_ky__B*_B_M Wt all wrong In prediet
fng a t...t|_in.in. nt of the ly. .eal Government bill
till aft-T Easter. Ital measure will be brought
In at Ita beginning of Ita session. It Will bo
found very flfOtilUtl-l la cha meter, nnd will bo
heartily supported bf e\ery number of the Gov?
ernment, Ineladh-g Mr. Gtoootan, who wished to
modify it and to narrow the basis of suffrage.
leard Hartington has seen Ita bill and approves it.
Bc and his fellow Liberal Uni.mists will support
lt. not less eoidially than Ita converted Tories
themselves.
Seeondly, which, perhaps, ondit to hnve come
flr>t. tin- new ruh's of procedure are far moro
?tringent in two HBptCH than they were hitherto
supposed to be. Following American proeodenis,
closure liy a tan majority will be ptopofl d. This
ls Loni Salisbury's bu fi ration. Some of his more
timid eoll< a.Hrs u rared lhat when the 1.ibt inls re
tuni.-il to power .-Insure in lins fotXB would h'ave
the Torus helpless to t*mm\ Ita most r.idieal
nr .isi res ?? True.*' replied Lord Salisbury, "but
the otatlge is inevitiihle. If we do imt establish
BlOBOfB l>.V majority itislt-nd of the present cumb?
rous ami often iiivvorkiihle systi m, the Liberals
?a*.ill. They will be ettger for legislation, in?
tolerant of nb-1 ruction, and far loss considerate
of minorities than ourselves. The eountry will
never necuiiesee in the permanent paralysis of
1 .irliami-nt bf Iha Irish. Let us. therefore, recog?
nize the ine\ it.idle. We may as well have the
credit of a reform whieh both pMtico know to bc
necessary and the benefit of it while we are iu
?tower.** These arguim-nt s pi*.-va iletl. um] (Insure,
whieh now tlependa on .anons artificial arithmeti?
cal teeta, and whieh has often fnileil becaUM fewer
than .on membeia roted for it. will preaentiy h.
enforced by an Bbooluta majority, no matter how
many or how few -BCBtbci. niay be present.
Furthirrmoro, a BOW and efficient means of chock
ing obstruction will be t-tlled Into exiatenoe under
Ita Haine of automatic closure. The details an
too elaborate fat telegraphing, bm the effeet will
be Ital at midnight detate will be suspended
without a lnntioti being made, ami th.- Speaker
will put elthei the main question, or, if called
upon, trill without detate take thc sens., of the
House ns to whether the mai ti question shall ur
.tall not be put. Tlese two rules will revo
lutioni/e procedure. They may not crush ob
Btruction, bm they will compel the invention of
tonie new ohstroi-five niaelr.ni-ry if the will ol the
n_ii)i'tit\ is hetieeforth to prevail.
'I'liirdh. a lull for the go.ei-tn.enl of London
luis been drafted and will protably be brought in
at .nee. Th.- attempt to or.Hiii.e this hog. eily
into u single mimi, iimliiy has been Bbswdoned,
Bini tile present BchCBBC provides for four separate
munit ip ilties. This, if Denerend with, will ta
Ita (.rent st surprise of all. It has tint ye! boen
ni-p ced that ihe Ministry meant to t-ickle this
li antie pr. iilem.
Finally, the Ministry?ea. li member of lt?Lord
Hartiiij,'ion and ita whole body of Liberal-Tnion
ists an- absolutely at one in Approving and u|k
holding Mr. Balfour in his Bdministnttion of the
Coercion Act. They approve his general policy,
they approve the methods hy which he has en
foroed the law. They regard coercion as ;i toe
ces- ao far as niotoaa is pooaible within tin- period
daring which the Crimea Act h;is boen really In
good work nu order. They will not apologize for
the action i f the police, ol tba DtagiatnteB, of the
adi n nut lu. ii i >. or of Dublin (tattle. They
m logue then all. and they will meet I._.rliament
-_>it li .ver", appeumnoe of .-onfldenee, whether thoy
feel it ur not. Mr. Balfour himself, though un?
moved either by the aocusatii ns conattmtly made
again-, him or by the deadly peril in winch he
uadoubtedlj stands, will tt__ooa_e an opportunity
of uieeting all aoeusations in the House itself.
Such is the account of the purpooes anil spirit
of the Ministry which cornea to me, as I said,
from a source which ought to be accurately in?
form' d. This Attitude, IO far a- il concerns Mr.
Ball ur. will have one important effeet?it must
give Lord Randolph (hun lull pause, if Loni Ran?
dolph really meditated the attack on Mr. Balfour
whieh his friends believe.
Mi. Ha Hour's declarion to arrest Mr. Cox, an
Iri.-h Member of Patti rn nt, in London, seems a
BUI print! to M**\ ("\'s In. mis and the puhlje gen?
erally. Mr. Cox eluded arnst in Inland and
supposed himself safe in London, hut an ad
passed in 1881, called the Fugitive Offenders' An,
confers the power of arnst in most express
terms where the aecuaed person fur whom a war?
rant is out tao eaeaped to another part of the
Kingdon.

Asbury EL Perkins is :i t;ill, dignified man with B
pleasant face and keen blue eyes. Ile is ii fnruier,
und lives in Lancaster, South .'arolin;.. Ile is a
prominent man in the community, has the eonli
dettee of every one, and when he was appointed
County Commission" r about n year ago everybody
lu the neighborhood sn id that he was the right
man in the right place.
Mr. Perkins came to New-York daring Christ?
mas week and stopped at Karie's Hotel, lie had
just returned from Boston, where he had left
$200,000 in county bonds in the vaults of a safe
deposit company. Mr. Perkins started out for a
stroll up Broadway during tho afternoon to pass
Straw laren] hours before the train left for the
South. Near EHeeekei St, a uell-ilros.se.I niau tSBSt
up from behind, hit him B vlgOtOUB dap on tlie
bael-, B/___tpe_l his hand, shook it with great vigor,
and said that he was heartily arln-i to MB him.
Ile was u little astonished and did not think that
thia was tin- propel way io tn at a County Com
misaionei but tha awn would not hear of nay
rcluifTs, took hold ot his arin in a most familiar
manner, and aald thal they would take a walk
together. On the way up to Fourtectith-st. Mr
Perkins fonnd that be had stet an old Mend from
Charleston. lits friend ki ew all about Lancaster,
ami ll,lit, nd Mr. Perkins by telling bini that since
he li;id been made Countv -'oinmissioner the Un?
ion-s of the county lind been greatly impro.rd.
Tba man knew sn much about Mr. I Vil-ins's family
and ti story thal by thc th_w they gol to Four?
teenth st, the count] official was thoroughly in?
fatuated with his new found friend,and Invited
him to quench his thirst in the Morton House.
liKNTI.Y BROACBIXO nu SI li.tl cr.
While standing af the bar Mr. Wilson, as the
man had called himself I.nine eonfldential and
told Mr. Perkins that, although he was doing
splendidly in the clothing business, yet be was
making a large amount of monos lu ? quiet way.
He asked him if aehadever beard of " grecugooda."
The South Carolinian replied in tbe negative.
Then Mr. Wilson explained that they wen- coun?
terfeit, hills so cleverly executed that no one could
tell the billa from genuine ones. He _k*___o__?tiated
the fact by buying several drinks at the bar and
paying for tin-tn arith si me of tba " green goods,"
as bc sn ni. Mr, Perkins, as itu honest man said
that lie did not wan) to deal in counterfeit money.
but Mr. Wilson quiet -I Ins conscience by telling
him that the Government officials al Washington
yearly applied nulli.ult of dollar- of this sort of
money to their osm use, and that be bad bb
much right to tin- monej hs they bad.
IVrkins thought ao too, and expressed hia regret
that lia hud not met Wilson before going to
UoKton, as he then had about 1200,000 arith him
and could have gone Into the business on a larger
scale. However, it was settled that he was to go
bach to Lanes ter, get some money, and eome
a!t.r the " greeu goods." Thia was the da] after
Christmas.
mixixa mr. itrrtu " dual."
Since then Mr. Perkins ims been In co-nmnnlc-k
tion with Wilson by letter and be arrived ben
hut Sunday from [.ancaster. At Earle's Hotel
lu- was Introduced to William Boger-* who had
bc-a delegated hy -Yilsoii tu look after the
business, IJctectives McCloskoy and Mulholland
have long been on the track ol' Bogers, and when
they saw him with tho County Commissioner they
concluded that an " oyster" had leen found mid
kepi a watch on them. Mr. IVrkins bad brought
with him .loo, for which he was to get g.,000 in
'" green goods." He had S.HO iii silver dollars,
and Bogers " kicked" ut this and said thal some
ot them ini?flit be had. So a messenger was called
ami the sih r was taken to Wall-st. and exchanged
for bills. Mr. Perkins got $i.uoo of green g.is
in thn-c package-, of .10. J 5 and -Jl bills and Mr.
Bogers got g-ioo in good money. The bu-dni-ss
was sett] rd yesterday morning and Mr. Bogers and
Mr. Perkins left the hotel arm in arm. HM
County Commissioner earned a new bag contain?
ing the green gooda. Tbey took n car to the
DeshrosBCB St. ferry and were just going through
the ferry gate when McCluskey nnd Mulholland
seized them. Mr. Bogers got out a bier pistol, but
it wns knocked to the sidewalk and one chamber
exploded. He iras quickly subdued ami was taken
to I'oliee Hcadquartem with the County Com?
missioner,
The latter protested against the arreat of his
Wend Rogers, Inspector Byrnes told Mr. Perkins
that he had been swindled anil Mr. Perkins denied
it. The Inspector opened the satchel, took ont
the packages <>i money, broke the little rnbber
banda and green paper with no marks on it fell
np.." ttl., fh'or.
'" Well. I'll be poid -nd "' exclaimed Mr. Perkins,
"if t lift donut beal any thin' [ ever need." This
ams the first idea that he got of the swindle and
