MR. PARNELL AGAIN,
01* HIMSELF, ON MR. GLAt-STONE. AXD ON
THE FUTURE OF HOME KDLB.
l.on.lon. March 18.
For a depoaod nnd disoredited leader Mr. Parnell
Bttll engages a prelty large ahare of public atten?
tion. He oertalnly ia more intorcstinj. in one
way than when he was al the height of hLs un
contested power, with both ??Bb rationalist > atul
Engludi Gladstmians looking up t<a him as a Und
of deity. Then he niaintainetl an attitude of lofty
reaerve. impressive hut ehilling. Now he tells the
world a ?ood many things about himself, and
erems of the world rather than ao far above it:
aa lt Wrere, a heavonly Vaoily, renmte from hiuman
toueh. but visible to liuuuin sight and to Im?
worahipped from afar.
llie attitude of worship really was. in those
day*. a oominon attitude. It ie alnnx-t Btortllng
t? recall the tone in which. among titie beiievers,
tlila great man was spoken of duririg, Lt ns say,
the sittlnjrs of the Parnell "Commission. He was
then tlie p^raecuted patriot, pure, ndmirable in
l.fe. the liberator of lreland. the guest of Mr.
Gladstone at Hawarden: which last eomes ns
near to an aet of canonization ns anyt??MI Bhort
ot a Papal decree. He was nn idol. if not a
dirinity. and they who liftcd tbeir voiee.s atminst
bim were gttilty not n mucli of ruere siander an.l
ealumny as of Irreligion. I do not dwell on
reminhtcences which have beoome pnlnful to the
trtie believer. I toueh on them only to mn!te
one remark wliich ia ohvlous, antl nuother which
may surprise the good Gladstonian iu Amerioa.
where the Gladstonian cult seenia almost more
ferw?t than here. The obvious remark is that
Mr. Parnell waa in the pre-Divoiee Court days pre
cieely the same man he is now. The leia obvious
or leaa familiar one is that the jro. .1 Gladstonian
knew almost as mueh then ns he doea now about
Mr. Parnell'a relations with Mrs. O'Shea.
I will limit thia. out of charity, to that section
?f the party which dwclla in London, or which
eomea to London for the Farllnnientary session.
The seandal which is whispered in the oomeia of
every drawin?-room in London. whieh is discussed
ln the lobby, which k> notorious in the clubs,
which creeps into eveuing pap?rs, may not pene
trate the provinces. It does r.ot, as a rule, wlien
it is purely, or hnpurely, 6oeial. When it is
politieal the dissemination of it is wider. It is
eometimes hinted at in the London TiCtter of the
provincial journal. The local potttlen]I BM
may come to hear of it. Tlie niember of Parlia
ment from Penryn or Clackrerinnsliire may earry
it back with Ua on his retnrn to those reruoto
districts. and confide it to his politieal friends in
the secrecy of eleetioneering eonelavee. But it
never. I think, or seldom, beoemee a toj.ic of dis?
cussion at the provincial tea table. It. does not
penneate the circlcs which aro fonned for purposes
of social interco.irse in Hirminghnm OT Paisley, in
Manchester or Aberdetvi, in Wohrerhampton or
Stockton-ou-Tees. This should be s;.i.l distinctly.
becauae otherwiee thut sudden clcvelopment of the
Nonconformist Conscic nce. after tlie proeoedaTi:r<
ln O'Shea vs. O'Shea, Parnell eoi-Bpondent, might
seem too 6ndden. I suppoK* that not mueh, if
anythiwr, wns known ln these provincial ebeles;
the word provincial being limitcd to Ita nrbon
senee, or being. to speak more aee_rately, onder
ttood to inelude all tliat social life of which the
county faujilies are tl>e soul an.l centre. It was
known in what are ealled countiy-houses. mst. as
it wa_ known in London. and it never affected in
the kast the general Gladstonian faith in Mr.
Parnell'a fltness for the positaon to which the Irish
peopie had ealled him.
Perhap6 Mr. Parnell himself undervalned social
Influencee ln those days. He regarded them with
oontompt. Contempt, indeed, is an attitude of
mind only too conimon witl him. There is DOM
more dangerous. He aiid the other day at Gnl.
way that during the whole sixteen years of his
public life he had never been insidr of an Engllah
elub six times, nor ever dined out in London
half a dozen timee. Nay, ha had " never liee.n one
who mixed among English memliers of the Uonae of
Commo-s, being hail fellow well met with them.''
He found it possible to lead a politieal party
and to attain a great measure of politie.il power
without resort to those means which Lord Pul
merston thought essential supports to any great
leader's authority. He found something in tlie
aociety of Mrs. O'Shea which suppl.'ed the place
of other aociely. It might I.e hanl to say whether
he ever knew or caretl about the current seandal
whieh connected his name with hers. Probahly
he knew that aomething was known and saw that
tt did not affecthis politieal repute, nnd therefore
deeplaed it and thought it eonld be s-.fely Mf
lected. He omitted. in fact, to allow for the
Nonoonformist Conseience.
In order to be perfectly frank on this rather
dellcate 6i;bject, I ou_rht to refer to the explana
tion which Mr. Gladstone's friends have given of
his share in the matter. They say that Mr.
Gladstone received. as Mr. Davltt reeeived, an
atturance of Mr. Parnell's innoeenee. If it vms
no more oompleto than Mr. Davitt's, it did not
amount to mueh. Mr. Parnell told Mr. Davitt
he should come out all right. I have no donbt be
did thiuk he should. He relied on Mr. G
Lewis to pull him throu?h. Hc believed that the
legal proceedings would end in 6ome aOft of com
promise which would permit his friends to say he
had be?n unjustly accused. That is a very dif
ferent thing from an assurance of Innoeenee. It
may well enough bave answered the pnrpo?_ ol
Mr. Gladstone. He wished to l>e eonvinced, and
there never lived a man whose wishes so entlrely
pot the better of that aoutenehs of mind whioh,
when no purpose is to be served by keeping it in
check, eurpasses the acutenes- of other men.
There are considerations into which I should
like to go more fully?should have gone at the
time had circumstances permitted. The qotetlon
of Mr. Parnell'a position is, however, still a born
ing question, and it cannot Ih* fully understood
unteaa tlie facte of a few DBontha ago are kept
freohly in mind. Mr. Gladstone said last Tues
day at Hastings that his refusal to aet with
Mr. Parnell waa linal. Not long since he was
very angry with some Tory sp.riker wim Inter
preted his letter of last November to Mr. John
Morley as a pledge that his co-operatiou with the
Irish leader was at an end forever. He rather
fieroely explained that it related only to that
present moment; precisely as he once said, ninid
roars of derision, that when hc solemnly dedan-d
his Home Kuie bill and Land Purchase bill in
aeparable he meant they were iaseparable at the
moment. But let that pass. What baa bnp
pened since has eonvinced him?his wlahea run
nlng 6trongly in thut din-ction?that he can
tbrow Mr. Parnell over for good; iiay, that he
must tbrow him over, and that on no oth r
terma can the c_ntinu<'<l allegiance of a great botly
of Nonconformist voters be had. They are what
he culUs the aoundest nnd beat Pnrts ,,f 1J|P party.
I believe I quoted Mr. Gladstone's words the other
day hy cable, but in endeavoring to inahe out
whBt is in his mind, exactuerss is so neceseary that
I will quote them again. After referring tn the
Divorce Churt disclosu>es, Mr. GladatOM said:
" We have to decide whetiiet we still, alter
these disclosures, will place the consritutional
leaderahip of lreland in Mr. Parnell's Ji;.th1s We
will not do it. If that was the c-iivietion of
the Liberal party in December last, I Ixlieve it
ia now their eonviction. lt is a linal fact in the
case. We are ready, gentlemen, t<> face deleut,
exelusion, politieal misfortune, but to do that
which I have deserilMd?to creHte c.n
stitutional leadership in lreland under gnlrtonot
such aa I have referred to?ihe [ibeiaj
party are not prepared. and no consideration will
induce them to I* prepared."
Now there ia in thoae words and phrases a
degree of explicitness aud precision, an nhWMB of
qualifying claiuiee, and of what Lord Salisbury
ealled loopholea, possibly without, ptoeedenl in
Mr. Gladstone's public declaratioijM. At any rate,
aueh preoedenta are very few in number. I think
we may venture to aay that the li-stin_s w.mls
are of such a clenincss and do so l.in.l |fr. <<1.t-1
stone to his iucmnt purpose ihat it Wonld be
extremely diflieult for him t-> aet with Mr Parnell
ln the future. or agaiu to propoac Home li\ t- lor
Irclaiui if the v^oplc o.* ireiimd aheald happen
to insist on btivi!:_r Mr. I'nrneli for their con
siitutional ruler. Tbc people al Ireluinl WOuW,
in s'nii eircutnstnnccs. hn\e to nttnin their onl
without Mr. (Jl.nlMone's lcuve, or. which is pefhap
?aaahaa pebable, kava it aaaUaiaad,
Mr. Piirnell doea BOi alwafl troiihle liitnself
to r.otiee altaeka or denlala, ?r t,> cienr __?__?_! <>f
iniputJitions. even when they procceil Irom Mr.
Cladsloiie. He has. however, notiecd this. He
spokc nt Pregheda ag Sunday? SnwhVv i? Um
day whleh ParaeUttea and Anti-l'arnellites who
agree abont nothing BBBB ugTBt ln selecting for
their fnetion light*. Ile did DOl lail to point out
to aa irish aadtoaee tha arreganea ai tha elaini
made hy an Knglish party leader to dkoUk who
should and who should not l>e the ennstitutional
ruler of Irelnnd. The qatattoa, said he. who
should l?e the tirst or the second or the third or
any other Minister in Irelnnd would lie for the
Crown, and not for Mr. Gliidstonc or the Lihernl
party, and he was practic.illy arrotrating to him
galf the prerogative of the Sovereign.
Mr. Gladstone is a gnat sticklcr for prfroRa
tive and this is just the sort of answer whleh
would di.strvss him. Mr. rarneli, with hLs usual
1 dexterity in dehate, has lound the joint ln his
enetny's armor nnd plantcd his shall. there.
Hut h<> wtabed to ?aha Ur. (Hadateae- mind eaay
and he would tcll him thnt it. wus extreincly ,ni
prolml.le that he should ever ner.-pt oflOC under
.1 Crown in nn Irish I'arlinnictit, suppor^hg an Irish
raiHagbtlBt to l?e created; or re-created. In his
own opinion liis Kcnius aml inelination are not
for offlce. He ?locs not like bcing ticd
down. If he consults his own wishes he should
certainly. at that perhaps disUiut date when Irc
hmd shall have the right to send representatives to
College Green, choose some other position thun thnt
of pnid minister.
Apparently he would like to remnin tincrowned
King- His amhition, whatever clsc Bta] be snid of
it, is not cormnonplace. Mr. Parnell's words re
quire, it is true, to he weighed in a liulance not
less delicate than that which sutlices, if any suf
llces, for Mr. GladMone's. Whal lie now aaya th.es
nevcrt.hele.ss seeni to express his real Ceeliag. He
Baad to speak coldly, or at least coolly. He apeaha
now wi-h such passion, atid with such fieqnent
pxplosions of tineotifrollnhle rpjre, thnt the truth
comes onl whether he wills or no and, as I began
hy aaying, he is aa a atndy all the more Intereal
iug. You see more ol the real man. Aud it i.-.
still paaaible, thongh far from oertain, that he will
hold in the futurc, as he baa in the past, the
threads of Jxi_.h palioy iu his own hands.
