QUESTION. The annual Lord llaycr's banquet took place Tuesday evening , atGuild- n ll , and , in accordance with cuEtom , 3Ir. Gladstone , in responding to the toast to the "Ministry , " took occas ion to state the. position of the gov ernment on Ilia leading tgpics cf British political interest. Mr. Glad stone's remarks on the Irish question arc worthy of serious consideration , as coining from a liberal minded and fearloBa statesman , who throughout his entire parliamentary course has shown the greatest sympathy with wrong and oppression , and an earnest deairo .to do strict and impartial justice to all the elements cf the British government. It is evident that the English ministry are determined to preserve the peace in Ireland at all hazards &ud at any expense. This is plainly manifest from the premier's remark that "the gorernment recognizes the duty of enforcing laws above every other duty and will not hesitate to ask for in- crea'.ed powers should their present powers prove insufficient. " The most urdent lover of Ireland cannot deny that the Gladstone ministry wilfully closed their eyes to the beginning of the land league agitation , and even refused to intarfero when agitation had risen to inflammatory appeals and governmental defiance. It is only now when tl e whole country seems ripe for revolt , when landlordsagainst whom no tenant is uttering complaint are prohibited from reaping their harvest under threats of assasin&tion aud when law and order a'ra openly set at deGance by F.II organization whosa heads are constituent members of the imperial parliament , tint the liberal govern ment finds it its sworn duty to interfere and protect the lives and property of its citizens. Mr. Gladstone's speech voices the disippoiutment not only of the minis try , but , alee of thousand ? of the warmest trienda of the Irish people. Universal sympathy had been aroused by thcir famine suffer' ings , and land reform was ripe Joi execution through the lawful chan nels of parliamentary enactment. A. ministry backed by a strong major ity in the house of commons had shown its active desire to aid in tht juci&cation of the country and tin "permanent relief of her wrongs , anc the sober secsc of the English pooplf would have supported the governmeni in the measures looking to the refora of land-tenures and the elevation oi the peasantry. The present violent ogitatior and lawlessness has worked great in jury to the cause of Ireland. Tn Mr , Gladstone's words it has been "en' tTrely illegitimate and totally in compatible with the concerns oi a well constituted society. ' ' The sentiment - timent of obedienco-to law is firm tei in the Anglo-Saxon mind , and it i : manifest that the English go vcrii- tnent will never submit to ba coerce d into land reform under threats of at- sissination , murder and rapine , backed by the destruction of life and prop erty. Mr. Gladstone no doubt spoke by the card wben he declared that the maintenance of the existing lawa , which the government hzd sworn to enforce , muat precede reforms , and in his declaration he will be backed by an united English'sentiment. It "is very unfortunate that at a time when there really seemed to bo a good pros pect of peace and prosperity in Ireland , when her wrongs and injuries were brought into strong relief by the horrors of a year of panic , and } when the sympathies of thejtrholo world were demanding a per manent relief in her system of gov ernment , that hot headed leaders should deliberately aet to work to deetroy what had already been gained and raise the people in fruitless insur rection cgaiust the first government which for years had shown an earnest intention to yield to the demands of the people. If the slightest chance of success by revolution presented itself , the cane would be different But when the odds are eo frightfully dis proportionate , as they are in the pres ent case , armed resistance ceases to bo defensible , and becomes the sheer est folly. The only hope of the oncjjd and oppressed people of Ire- hind lay in the earnest yet peaceful presentation of their case to the nc- tion who a few months ago were thor oughly in sympathy with their misfor tunes. To-day the Irish leaders ecem to be doing & 11 in their power to wipe out every vestige of that sympathy , and to antagonize ) every law-abidinc citizen against the menace , intimida tion and crime which now hold carni val in Ireland. EVERY onca and nwhile the people who protest against the outrageous Ewindlos of railroad corporations are informed by the managers that as lepitimato business investments , the profits of the railroads are greatly ovcreJtimatcd. How little they ate overestimated may bo soon from the statistics of th ) Pennsylvania rail road , which since its first dividend in May , 1S5G _ . has paid dividends , cash and scrip at par , together amounting to 220 per cent The company h&s never passed a dividend except in No vcmber , 1857 , and again in August , 1S77 , when dividends were suspended till November , 1S78. An investment in the stock at par in 1S5G would 1m e paid an average of 11 per cent since then for twenty-four years , adding to the dividends the premium on the stock dividends made at par. could not steal California , " remarks' DC.

L. SIchoTj Sketch. Gen. Garficld likea books and mu sic and pictures He is withal ver versatile. He sit. i songs and read , poetry , studies u ilhernatic ; , prob lems and translate " " , ! "knotty"paseagei oftho Greek Testament with equal in terest and ralish. I remember enc ( seeing a gentleman showing htm whal is called a "trick with cards. " Aftei trying it a few times , Mr. Garfield said : "That is no trick it is the re- suit of some law of numbers ; it's a mathematical problem , depending on the number of cards , spots , etc. " That night he determined to solve the problem. I went to bed at midnight and left him working at it. In the morning he said ho had cot up till af ter three , but , like Archimedes , he had "found it , " .and ho had covered a dozen sheets of" paper with algebraic formulas in the operation. I think Garfield would like to be rich at leapt better off than ho is ; but he could never endure the kind of life that makes men rich the con tinued and monotonious routine and attention that is required in mere money-getting. That kind of mental food wouldn't nourish'his intellectual .nature. He is ambitions and , in a aud laudable sense proud. He likes to excel. He told me the evening the nominations were madu iu Chicago that he would rather have the credit of making the best speech before such an audience than to get the nomination. People may not readily believe it , but Garfield'a speech nominating Sherman was very nearly an impromptu speech. Garfield is a temperance man , though not a "total abstinence man. " I have seen wiiio on his table twice in Washington , once at a breakfast and once at a din ner party. I know that liquor is not habitually used about his house , and that he very rarely touches it himself. He is not at all sensitive on the sub ject of temperance , nor desirous of concealing his views and practice. Gen. Garfield ia fond of his homo aud his farm. He walks his visitors around and shows them ell the im provements bo has made and explains those he contemplates. He shows his stock , machinery and crops with aa much enthusiasm aa Horace Groeley used to display on the same subjects. Ho finds the farm a source of perpet ual pleasure and interest. One cannot be about Mentor long , rithout finding out that Garfield likes his neighbors ana that they likohim. Mrs. Garfield is a very pleasant but not a demonstative woman. She is well educated and appreciates the good tilings in literature and art She reads "aolid" books , and the magazines ; looks well after the house , and teaches her own children ; ahe is a "help-meet" and an entertaining com panion for her husband , and abund antly able to entertain his most intel lectual friends and visitors I should think her most marked characteristic is that of perfect attantic n t j her own business , and no meddling with other people's. She is unostentatious. Sha refused to allow her photograph to bo sold or her picture to be engraved , though earnestly pressed to do so by photographers , engravers and by many- friends. I suspect she don't care to. be written about much , either , and I flon't wish to do violence to her desire " "n this respect by extended comments. The children are two boys , one girl , nd two more boys. Their first child was a girl , which died when a few months old. The last one was a boy that died when about 2 years old. Harry , the oldest living is 15 ; Abram , l.he youngest , is 8 ; "Jim" Is 4 ; Molly 12 , and Irvin 10 years old. Harrj is a quiet , steady boy , very obedient aud dutiful , particularly respectful to wards his parents and grandmother. The writer had an opportunity t.i seeing a characteristic letter which ha wrote to his mother shortly after tbo Chicago convention , ho and "Jim" baing in school at Concord , N. H. , at the time. Ho epoke of the fact that some of his deal moro interest in himself and "Jim" since their "pa" waa nomi nated for president. He evidently thought this a little snobby , and said he didn't consider they were a bit big ger or better than they were before ; and that he would respect his father juit as much "even if ho were noth ing but a congressman all his life. " Ho didn't seem _ to think it a very big thing to be a congressman. Jim is what is called a rollicking boy. He is never known to bo still unless asleep. Both physically and intellectually he is very strong and verquick. . He masters his studies almost without effort and in incredibly short time. At school he likes the gymnasium ; ho excels on the trapcza and the springboard. At home he stands on his head , walks on his bands with his heels up , turns hand-springs and somersaults , and jumps the fence in preference to opening the gate. He is good-natured , kind-hearted and ac commodating , and famous for boyish devilment. Molly ia a ratherquiet girl , with remarkable good sense for her years ; sha keeps to her lessons pratty close , and plays the piano very well. Irvin ia the queerest genius of the family , though I don't know how to describe him. "Abo" is an artist. He is always making pictures , and seems to prefer drawings of machine ry. A train of ears h ono of his favor ite drawings , and ho will have the engine , bagsjaga and mail cars , the coihers and sleepers , all EO perfect that it would take an expert to find a part left out. SHAMELESS SHAMS. SHAM GENERALS , SHAM COLONEIJj SUAU CAPTAINS , SHAM JUDGES , SHAM EVEEYTHINO. New York Spirit ot the Tlines Thirty yeara ago the sharp pen of Charles Dickens pricked the bubble of American titles , and made our militia "generals , " corner-grocery "judges , " and town-council "honorables" as ridiculous as our spittoons and our dollar aristocracy. But before the title nuisance could be quite laughed out of existence the War transformed all our people into soldiera. Wo know from the official records that a million of high privates enlisted on both sides during the war ; but the slanhter was terrible , and net a sin gle soldier escaped alive. All the survivors are officers , tnd al though perhaps few of them could show their commissions , they take every possible opportunity of air ing their rank. In aristocratic coun tries hsir titlds are hereditary ; but in this country they are infectious. Abroad , the son of a lord becomes a lordship when his father dies ; but in this free republic ono title generates another ai fast as flies in the sun. When the head of a'family becomes a judge or a general , all the boys are dubbed colonels or majors or commo dores , so aa to keep up with the old gentleman , whozo brothers and brothers-in-law straight-way confer on themselves titles of honor or distinc tion , in order that the original judge or general may not. eclipsa them by the brilliancy of his preSx. Thus it happened that this democratic repub lic is inhabited almost exclusively br men of title "generals , " "colonels" and "majors" are as plentiful as cranberries , anl everybody out of jail and a majority inside is con sidered an "Hon. " Four "generals , " o .ly one of which has a genuitio ' claim 'to the title , are running for president , find the lists of campaign speakers show so many "honorablea" supporting these candidates that , if there bo anythinpfin a name , the per fect integrity of all the political par- tics ought tc be thoroughly insured. * The proposition that only these who have earned tbwr titles should wear them is self-evident ; but while wo may discover real soldiera contented to .be pkin "Mr. " now that they are mcs- tpred out of service , wo eee thousands . .f men , who ao citizens in war aud soldiers in peace , strutting abont with military handles to their names These snda-water "colonels , " all fizz and cork , manige our theaters , direct our operas and run our circusoJ. Eng land sends us a militia "colonel" to give us Italian opera , and wo recipro cate with an American "colonel" of negro minstrels.Military oflisew are tha landlords of hotels " " our , a "major" mixes drinks and " " a "squiro" attends to the boot-blacking department. All the editors who are not "Colonels"are "Hons. " To some Americans yon may ba bold enoagh ( o deny a prelim inary title , but to address any body a letter without the affix ot "Esq. " would ba regarded as a rersonal in sult the smaller the social position of the person addressed the greater the insult , of course. Thus titles which , honestly won and honestly worn , would do equal honor to those who ' b'ear and these who respect them are cheapened by bogus imitations and be come ludicrous instead of distinguish ed As regular officers are most anxious to get out of uniform and into mufti as soon as they are on duty , so these who have a riqht to titles are beginning to discard them , while the bogus bearers flourish more aud moro obstrnsively , like the raw militia captain on his first training day. Wo iObserve , also , aa organized system of self-promotion among these sham aristocrats. Ono penonage , whose card bore the proud but modest title of major five years ago , has just returned from Europe a full' colonel , although ho has never seen service since Bull Run. With steady devo tion to duty and a new card stamp , this type of his class will bccomo a general by the time the next Newport seison opens. There are no "corpor als , " and outside of the police , no "sergeants" among our civil mili tary heroes , all the non-commissioned officers having shared the sad fate of the privates during the war ; and. although wo can count our "generals , " "colonels" and "majors" by the hun dred , wo do not remember a single "lieutenant" among our acquaintance outside of the regular army and navy. Why do these minor titles remain un attached ? "We cannot all be tailors , " the English nobleman remirked to Mr. Poole , who complained of "mixed company , " and Americans ought to have sense enough to know that wo cannot all ba superior offi cers. The visit o ! Gen. Grant to Now York affords each reader a capital oc casion to reflect upon this bogus title nuisance , and to resolve that , honca- forward , In his own case , and among his acquaintances , he will steadfastly discourage it It is nnropnblican , un- American , and unmanly ; it renders us absurd at homo and a laughing-stock abroad ; it encourages petty vanity and snobb'sh affectation , and it should bo so severely punished by society , ii not by law , as any other form of ob taining undeserved credit under false pretenses An Early Start.
