London, Juno 9.?If this morning's news bc true, as it probably is. it i- -i political event. The two loading Unionist papou agree in announcing that the licensing clauses of the Local Government bill are to be dropped. The Ministry have taken a very sudden resolution. Down to yesterday they meant to postpone these clauses. Perhaps it may Mill be felled postponement. Neither last Satur? day's Hyde Park meeting tor Mr. Gladstone's op? position greatly nlarmed them. It is the diseon teut of their own supporters which has discon? certed th' ir plans. There was discontent among the Liberal-I'niinists, but it was not genoraL All at onoe the metropolitan Conservative membors re? volted. They met yesterday under tho presidency of that vt a nc U Tory, Sir Algernon Borthwick, and unanimously advised thc withdrawal of the clauses for the present session. No reasons are (riven, bat they are obvious. The dislike of tax? payers to paying condensation for cancelled licenses is ceneial, and Sir Algernon and his col Issjaas are convinced that it cannot be overcome. So liny counsel surrender. Nobody doubts that the clauses could be carried, but only after a weary and bitter st merle, which would weaken Um M. -try more than this concession weakens them. That most inconveniently candid friend of the Government, " The Standard." remarks that the lb me Wule fai t;on will make the most of the vic? tory winch they may legitimately claim as a test), mony to their strength, and will carry to the Bl of their own cause the prestige of which they have deprived the Unionist Government. ? The Times" is good enough to print a two column account of the last sittin? of the Demo? crat ie, Convention, plus a long leading article on tho subject. Again wo are permitted to read thrilling accounts of bandannas, pty cotton cloth. j?oitraiN.horn-blowing, band-playing and the eccen? tric dolivoraneos of excited Democrats. The author nf this dispatch spares no detail which lead! to make the proceedings seem ludicrous. Editorial delight ever Mr. Cleveland's nomination is freely (xpr'ssed. though the writer's enthusiasm is not always according to his knowledge. I fear That Mr. Godkin is not read in " The Times"' office, when nothing sec-ms to Ik- known of his melan? choly avowals of Mr. Cleveland's Civil Service delinquencies. Ibo Repnbtieans, we are told, have ?roved none of their charges; the wholesale re ino%als of political opponents have been brought to an end; and Republican officials have kept the places which they secured during a long monopoly of Bowes. Perhaps it is on thc faith of Ihlt curious delusion that Mr. Cleveland is said to be a wort Im r representative of American political life than has often been installed in the White House. The other papers hardly allude to the subject. I met yesterday an Irish peer, who is.also a lime Ruler, a combination occurring but seldom. and ssksd him how things were going in Ireland. " The Pope will win," was hi* sententious answer, not less d?*?*onfeiited than smtentious. There is very little Irish nows, unless it be Irish news that Mr. John Morley has made one more elaborate and pungent speech in London Sgsiasl Coercion. Roth sides seem to be waiting for the next MW! from Rome. It is well understood that nobody now practises obs'not ion, direct or indirect, in the House of Commons. There were eighty-three ques? tions on the paper Thursday night when the Ljfe] Gorernfeent bill %vas coming, but all these were of vital consequence. So, of course, was Mr. EUis'l motion to adjourn the House in order to dis MM ? mattel of urgent public importance, a mo tii n supported bj nearly tho whole Opposition. Tah particular matter of urgent public impor prOTed to be the tithe disturbances in " gal? lant little Wales." This having been disposed of by ch sure, anotlr r Opposition motion followed, wi:1.! the result that the House rot into Committee on Locai Government at ten mlnntee to lt, and got out again automatically at midnight. ' I/-t ne mend the House of Lords a little," says its T< ry leader. The voice is tho voice of Lord ' it the man behind it is Lo:d Salisbury. Eui Cadogan, as Lord Privy Seal, is one of the ?eel dignified ann ornamental members of the Cabinet, whose wife gives exeelleal parties as Cado? gan lions?. But it is not from him that will onie any great measure of reform for the House Sf Lords. No, nor from Lord Salisbury either. Tins is not a great measure of reform; it is a lit? tle measure, meant to stave oft" that great BMBSOJN, Whiel imi^t come some (lay or other. All it does sppolal a Shot Committee to report on tho ksndlni Orderi of the House. This committee %vill consider at what hour the House ou^ht to meet, how many ought to constitute a quorum, Whether the Lord Chancellor ought not to have PowertSSSj who shall s;>ouk when several corn lie'.tors rise together, how old a Peer ought to be Whoa he takes his set, and other such matters, Rene of them <;iiit.o radical. Lore! ( sdogao, however, pledged the Ministry lag in a bill to create lifo peerages and enable the Honst to rips] black sheep. This is what Lord Salisbury some time since intimated he would do. lt is the day of small mercies IV panic about National defence was supposed to have bat ii decently interred on Monday by Lord '? [ami t ??:.. A % cry good Royal Commission Was appolated to bury it, with Lord Hartington Bl ehaiaBSB. Rut neither Sir Edward Hamley *? ' Lord Wolseley will allow it to be buried. Kir Edward bas wrtttea another letter and Lord Wolseley bas ? sde another speech; and now " The Lady Telegraph'' starts a fresh scare, sad seems inclined to hang Lord George i: too because he is not scared, to haag Mr. Stanhope, and appoint a Minister ol National Define, with full control over tho ?Jl | and Navy. The other popers, including the oriana! patent ?<? of sensational scares, cannot be lad iced to take the oracle of Fleet-st. seriously. Nor doss the British public seem seriously frights sm i. Perhaps the real sensation of the week is the hm*, i st jimmy relatinc to th* Board ol Works in i'iUiii'-s. The whole story about corrupt dealings Jn the Pivilion Music Hall business came out yes ;md other stories aro coming. The evi? dence is the evidence of those who took part in the trhtisactions, and the Board is doomed. The sweating inquiry, too, supplies a weekly BmssttOW, The evidence affects many well-known Arms af tailors, as far apart as Poole and Benja? min, and several others, including Redfern. Yes? terday Mr. Arnold White accused Mr. Maple of kSBptlteg arith, his witnesses. 'Ihe Committee of Ihl Lords twice cleared the room, in order to con ?iet the matter, and linally adjourned, leafing thc 'iuistion anea. The pablishod aoosants af Mr. Bright's progress OantiLue to !*? favorable, and um true, so iur as ?Bf relate to hil recovery from congestion of the IhlBB, Ba| j um sorry to say that his family c<'ii.?ider his condition one of extreme weakness. It is characteristic of London journalism that ?U. Blaine should have come and gone without a word in any leading paper. If he had been the King of Sweden he would have boen honored by paragraphs everywhere. Being merely the fore? most of living American statesmen, his arrival and depart ti re are matters of no interest to tho average British render. When Mr. Blaine was hore Inst summer ho was, as you know, much lionized in Lnglish society. He made many friends who looked forward to seeing him a,Tain, and ho would ha\*o been received with cordial.ty not less than that of last year. But his present stay in Loudon was less than a week, and he chose to avoid parties and dinners, and willed at but two or three houses, whose owners had particularly interested him. The two persons whose ac ( quaintance he now has first made are Sir George ' Trevelyan, whom he met at lunch, aud his country? woman, Madame Waddington, wife ot the French I Ambassador, with whom he took tea thc afternoon I Oeforf he left. Mr. Whistler retires from the Presidency of the Royal Society of British Artists with something more than the honors of war. Defeated by the Philistine majority, ho takes out with him nearly every man whoso work gave distinction SS tho Society. Mr. Alfred Stevens, of Paris, Mr. j Waldo Story, Mr. Roussel, Mr. Jacomb, Mr. Hood and many other artists shake off the dust of Suffolk Street once for alL There remain a eompany of painTers who have signally failed to interest the public or to give any promise of good work. Mr. Wyko Bayliss is the new president, a most respectable person. ? The Mikado"* was revived on Thursday even? ing at tho Savoy Theatre with all the circum? stances of ceremony usually attending a first night. The Princess of Wales and her daughters and Princess Louise were present, and many other per? sons of varied distinction. Sir Arthur Sullivan condueted. The cast remains the same as before, except that Mr. .1. G. Robertson replaces Mr. Loly and Miss Geraldine I'lmnr is now the " Yum-Yum." " The Standard.^ whose critic is a person of aus? terity, speaks of her as specially graeoful in move? ments and attitudes, and singing and acting with charm. Messrs. Gilbert, and Sullivan's opera %vent. in fact, as well as over from beginning to end, neither Mr. Gilbert's humor nor Sir Arthur Sulli? van's music seeming to have lost any part of its hold on a London audience. D'Oyley Carte has mounted the opera with his usual taste and splendor. Thc more deliberate criticism of thc weeklies on Miss Calhoun's Hester Prynnc in " Thc Scarlet Letter'1 is even more favorable than tho next morning's impressions of the first night in the daily papers. I quote Mr. Wedmore in " Tho Academy" : " Miss Calhoun has grasped the true character of Hester; proud and embittered when the town reviles her. penitent when alone, full ot tenderness, and full of womanliness. The per? formance is consistent and harmonious. It has real beauty." From this and other notices, as ' well a.s from tho interest shown by society and the general public, it is clear that this young American actress has made no slight impression on tho play-going world of London. I am desired by the Honorable Stephen Cole? ridge, who thinks That I made an invidious dis? tinction between Tho authors of "Tho Scarlet Letter,? to say that none such should in his opinion, nor in the opinion of Mr. Norman Forbes, tie drawn. " Wo give ourselves to tho world," he %vrites, " as joiut authors. As such, we wish to be accepted for better or for worse." I am sorry if my distinction was invidious, the more so as I steted thc facts correctly. But everything shall ! give way to the joint wish of the joint authors. G. W.
