London, May lfi.?Tlie inteution of Lord Salis
bury with reference to N.-wfoundland la not quibe
eleai, but it looka as if lie were not fully sati-fied
with the aasent of the Legislature to Sir Williiun
Whiteway's proposnl. There nuist be a pennam-nt
act, and it aaOOt l?e pasae.l within a certain time,
saya the British Prime Mimster. He apoke ln the
Hous* of Ltirds after the ncws had couie from
St, John's, an?l li is sj^.-eh was cxtremely flrm in
tone. His a??erlion of the binding force of inter
natlonal ohii^ations waa not less peremptory than
before. The dehato in fkc French Ohamber on
the 6ame day was angry, and there were epeakers
who thought that mattero could be improved by
the language of nienace.
So aerioua is the situation in Portugal, both flnan
rial aaid politieal, t;Mt l.urd Saliabury has come to
the relief of the Portticueae Government. I/.r.l
SslUbnry Indee.i. now tliat Prince Bisiuarck is ex

replacing him in hia eharacter of an enrthly provi

Africa large enouir.li. it is hoped, to coutent tlie
Portuguese mitul as repre-entcd ln the Cortca.
Thev are consi.lerable. but they do not. appcar to

more rctrarried than their effect on the Piin?e.
Lord Salisbury s aim is to strengthen the Portu?
guese throne, to <iuiet the revoltitionary spirlt
which fee.ls on discontent, and to restore lf pos
lible aome dcirree of business confidence-. It
matters little whether this partictilar Mlnlatry
Mavs or goes. In fact. it s.c>n6 likelv to <ro:
but a fresh MinLstcria] Of_rit m-ed occasion no dis

tlon. Its ore object aeema to be to prevent Mr.
Blaine's nomination, the probablllties of whleh
this English Journal disousses this morning with
painstaking aimplicity. The basis of its specula
tlous la a Uispatch frora the Dalziel Ageucy ln
New-York, eaying that Mr. Blaine ? broken dowa
physloally. Some of his frienrls, who did not
knovv the true degree of credibility attaehing to
Mr Dalziel, oabled yesterday for nr-ws and heard
with pleaaure that Mr. Bluine wa* very well.
But "The Timea's" editor aeoms still trustful of
its corrcspondent's veraclty, whoso calumnies
acninst Mr. Blaine with refcrence to the Behring
8ea have been the worst soandal of reecnt English
Journal?ni. Hence this column of placld commou
places, vague reminiscenoea, conjectures and pre
dlctions. The ho*tility of tho writor i? less nnked,
less clumsy, than Mr. Dalziel's, but nonc tlie less
uiarked. He perceives, however, that Mr. Blaine's
diplomatio succcsses are likely to 6ecure him "a
rush of electoral approhation"?whatover that may
aiean?or will aecure it, ehould he settle the
Behring Sea and Louisiana difliculties and one or
two othens to the Nation'a Uking. "Otherwlae,"
concludes thia oracle, " lt looks ivs lf hig history,
with if* diver* approaches to tbe cn.wn of Ameri?
can auibitiou, would repeat the ovperienoes of
other eminont leaders Wbooi thrir partics were
willing to follow, but not to vote for." You will
all undcrstand, therefore, that tho greatest favor
you can do " The Tiines" in to nominate anybody
but Mr. Blaine.
We have been favored wlth a verbatim report
by eable of one portion of Mr. Clcvcland's spcech
to tlie Cleveland Democratic Assooiation of Btif
fnlo. It has been rend here with joy. The good
Free Trader, the good anti-Republican, tlie anti
Ameriean, all flnd ln this speech something to
delight them. So does that large soction of the
English {public which likes tinkling rhctorie,
mixed metaphors aud the classic style of Mr.
Jotferson Brick.
Mr. Parnell'e epeeches, negotintlons, plans, re
oeptions and political tactlcs continue nmonjt. the
cssential topics of each weck. He is slill lielieved
to be lugiiiK (rround in Ireland, where (iericalism
is arrayed against him, where ihe four Arch.
biabopo, the twenty-three his'ions and the whole
Koinun Ofttholic clergy have set in ni'>ti<>n. and
are keeping in motion day nnd nlght, every engine
of priestly influcnce that oan be used lo eompass
hi6 destruction. Nevertheless, he siirvives. He
not only survives, l.ut he is still tbe most
pi.werful living IiishYiiaii. He may not be, ai:d
probably is not, a match for the big i>!:iek band
who beset him; but neither araor? all _19 f08d la
there any one man who is his uiatch. Hc baa made
this week a remarkahle si>eech at. Mullinga. ln lie
land, nnd aaotbec la ihe East End of London.
It is the epeech of ? atateea__, and in tbe Irish
party or part?? there is no other etatuaman
There is, on the whole, no other Irishmau who
knowg the land qoeetton to tbe botto?, none
(ithcr who matnt.iins a position of perfect indif
ferenee with respect to the English parties, none
other who puts the welfare of the Irish tt-nant
liefore all party advantage. He has of conree
the tuost cxtroine and probably tnaaonable ultenor
views, bnt he never lo?cs a ahaaee to seize an
adrantage for the tcnants. He will probably ax
tract from Mr. Baltour such a modifieatioa of
the Land bill as will go lar to seitlc the Irish
land questton for some general ii-ns. To hope
tluit anvthing can be settlcd once for all, or per
lDanently, in Ireland is to hope too maab.
At Mullingar on Sunday and at U-M hoiise on
Wednesday he set forth his new proposal. 01 his
reatwnfi for aupporting what is known as the allo
cation amendment. to Mr. Balfour's bill. This new
clause provides for the allocation of the sums avail
able for purchase in proportion lo the value of the
holdincs. lt seemed pmbable that under the
uriginal bill the expenditure of the ?30,000,000
sterling provided by the bill would huy out only
one-fourth of the whole number of tenants. There
are. aeoordlng to Mr. Parnell's flgarea, 985,000
teiiincies in all, and he believes that by bdopting
this prinelplc of allocation 914,009 teaante vvtr.il.l
become ownera of 1-0? In other worda, while the
i.rifrinal scheine would relieve ano-fonrtb of the
taaaata, this will turn Into contynto.l poaatinra ol
tiie soi! niore t!i:m live-si.\th.s of tiie whole number.

Mr. I'ainell and cried out:
" You bad man! It's a shame you didn't. behave

There is no lietlcr proof that the QkdatoalaOi
liave rtqalafiil hope than the reappearanoe of Blr
Wllliam Harcourt on tbe stunip. Tiiat stalwart

Parnell-Gtaktone alliance sought the eweei
[oa of his domeatle Breslde. The rietorlea
ai Stowmarket add Harboro have brought him
out, aad his apee. bee in Deroaahlra thia week hhr
wlth exultation, n-al or assumed. Probably there
is some of both.

Copyright quest lona have suddenly taken a rathor
serious turn: but before deolin_ with the scrioua
part, I will quote textually a lt-tter froui Mr. Ulad
stonc on the Atncrii; .11 Copyright Act:
"1 am not at present prcpured to say what
' ateps ought to be taken in the state of things
| you describc; but whether in relation to the in
terest of labor. or the dlgnity of authorshlp, or
of States, I re^nrd it as highly unsatisiactory."
Now. tliis oracular utterance ls suppused to
refer to that boneiioent aeotion of our act which
mukes the manufaoture M a foreign hook in
America tlie conditlon on which the foreigner may
have protection atrainst piratcs. Lord Monks
well might have quoted it ln his speeeh to tho
Peers of this realm on M-mday. but he dld not.
He preferred to quote Mr. Godkln. It ia ever
gratifying to the British censor of Ameriean morals
to support his censurc l.y te.stiniony which ho
can describe more or k'ss acrurntcly as Ameriean.
It was gratifying to Lord IfookSWelL He told
the Lords "to flnd that the most scathtng criticism
of the printlng provisions ol the Ameriean act
came from Amerioana themsclves," and then hc
ad.luoed Mr. Godkln, ornittin? to inforra his
audience that Mr Qodkifl la an Ameriean by adop
ti.m and due procees of naturalization. Lord
Monkswell, ln spit* of this little l.ipse, made a
good 6peeoh w copyright in general. Tiie blll
which hc lnduced the Lords to rend a sccon-l time
is a blll to re.luce tlie copyright ebaoo to order, to
codify, simplify, clarify and o.therwise to amet.d
the body of Eaguah itatateo on thla rnbjeet, These
are now in force eigbteen acto of l'r.rliaiucnt, plus
sundry ili-delined eommon law rlgbtO. Here, said
Lord Monkswell, with pathoO, "are all the elcmcnta
oi a glorious muddle." But tlie Lords. especially
tlie Law Lords, like a muddle, and tha Loid Chnti
ccllor only a!lo\ve<l Lord IfoBkawell'a useful bill to
he ri-ad a aecond time on OOBditlOO that it should
not proceed furtl.cr M tbe pKf.n1 sessiun.
Lord MoakowelPa later-oting opeoch was fol
lowad by a l.-t.t.T to "The Tlmeo" more Intereating
stil'. With the beat iiif-ntioiih in tlie world, hc
has raised a storru which hc may not be able to
btill. The poiat is of eqaal intercst to us and to
the Lii-'lish Slr Frcd.-n k Pollook baid r>nmc
tbing abont it in hll now w.-ll known arti.-le in
"The Contettporary Beview." Among many
doobtfal qaeotlooa in Engllah eopyright law is the
.lu.-sti.m whether an Amcri.an, m order to ol.tain
Engllah eopyright, nci i>c on Kn.4l1.sh aoil at tbe
time of poblicatioB. The beal legal oplaioa la, Sli
Frederiek Polloek. laolnded, tha! he pwad aot bo;
but Lord Monkswell admitted the B-OOOnt
otate of the law t.i be aBeertala, and
said, r'It is absolutcly BilWBOaiy that
tba English law should he amended in this par
tteular before the lot of July, otberwioo Eagli-h
i.utliore could not take gBvantOfO of the An.enc.ui
A-1." This Innoeent expreaoion lt is which ha*
broaght a storm about. Lord Mookawoll'a head,
tilied the breaol of tho British author with ulurni,
and prodneed a oeeond deUveraace on the eabjecl
from the author of the Copyright bilL Uc now
thiaka that he said too muoli, and urge_ tliat
there is r.o Inotaaoo in which copynght hOO heen
deenaed or held invalld for want of residem-e.
Lord Monkswell thereforc trust<s "that the lYaol
dent may deem tliat under thfl present law tiie
rlghtB of Ameriean c.iti/cns are sufliciently eafe
guarded, and will thcicfore give his certilicate, aB
ti.e Act requlrea, that __i_li_h law satiislics tliat
reciproolty clause."
This tooeblng appeal deserves the best attent-On
of the l'rcsidcn. ? -! iaii ia BOt
entirely one of law, bat of law and fact mixed.
Although len-'il opinion Ls dividc.l 011 the
pure.y legal polat, the greal prepondetaaee b In
favor of Lord MonkswelTa oontention. tJnleaa,
then-forc, some eaoe .an be eit.-.l in which Engllah
copyrigh! has been refuaed to an Aaieriean author

of up to 3 a. ui. When the CharLston
entered the harbor she passed near the Chilian

to quarters and landed a battery for
an euiergency. The Esmeralda aneaks all ves.

get any, becauae of lac_ of coln. Soon aftor the
(. harleston anchored the Esineralda steamcd into

coinmaiider of the EferoeraMa.. The latter said
frankly that the Charleston WOBld never
take the Itata until the Esmcnihia was
sunk. (aptain Remey replied that his ordcrs
were to take the Itata and it would make no dif
feretico whether the Esineralda was in Acapulco
or not. The Charleston is ready for action as
every one expects a H_lit if the Itata appcarn.
WashiiiKton, May 19.?United BtatM Consul
Lou^bery, who is stationed at Acapulco, Mexico,
lelagrapbed the State Dcpartmei.t thls afternoon
that. the United States stcatner Cl.atieslon had ar?
rived at that place aud that the OhUt-fl vvar vcss.-l
r?aeralda wm also iu sluht. Captaia Kemey, of
tbe 1 barleetoa, bber lafonaed the Kary [tepart
ineiit of his ,-irrival at Acapulco, and stoted that
he had taken on OOeJ for renewed operations.
The M-xh-an aotboritlei had denied the Esineralda
fuel, and she was known to be in Seed ot coal.
She was eviiltntly ou the lookottt. for the Itata,
which was ori^inully expected to stop at Acapulco
for coal.
Now that the Mexican officiaLs have shovvn thelr
attitude tOWbld the Chiliau lnsurgents by r.-tus.
ing fuel to the Ksuier.dda, they can 1m? depeiuh-d
upon to ihow no yreater favor to the pnraned

Acapulco or Panama. The cireuiiMances a' I
paleo make it doubtfnl us to her attouiptin^ !?>
Boal at thal j.ort, and ir is thought that she may
gO into Panama or take on coal at some amall
port in Me-leo where there is no telc^raphle oom
maaioation with the world. Such proeeedlag
will enable her to continue her e.uirse without an
eneoaatei with tlio Charleston. The itfltimore
