The debate now progressing in the English Parliament is one of intense interest and spirit. The men engaged in it are among the ablest statesmen ofthis century that has been so proli fic in greatness. Mr. Gladstone, the leader of the Liberal party, and the ablest man in England, leads the op position to the war.. The English Cabinet, with Earl Beaconsfield (Mr. Disraeli) at its head, is evidently very much inclined to take sides with the Mussulman. The whole matter is not. only of the first importance to Great Britain, but there is not a man, wo- ,;u T- . -i cuJ. manor child in the Lnited States whose welfare is not involved more i tc i j j or less. If England is drawn into the war the grain growers and man ufacturers of munitions of war will be greatly benefited, but the cotton growers, and corn, wheat and flour buyers in the South will be greatly injured. Mr. Gladstone has modified his re- solutions materially, but as they now liament will in part be arrived at .., ,i ,, - .... ,.JCtuC. trcj lu,ua,u a,'llu,'1J' neutral, or whether they are for ta- kino- sides with the Turk ao-ainat rhp king siaes witn tne l ur against the Aiuscovite.

But at pre sent Beaconsfield appears to be strong in Parliament and with the governing classes, and it is not probable that Mr. Gladstone will immediately achieve success in the House of Commons. Nevertheless the de bate on his resolutions is a matter of very great interest, and will be watched with great anxiety by the world." In the debate on Monday Mr. Gladstone made a powerful and ag gressive speech. He denouneed bit terly the policy pursued by the English Government, and accused the Disreali Ministry with having deliberately defeated the efforts of Lord Salisbury to compel the Turks to enforce genuine reforms. The Conservatives made strong replies to the assault, and the debate will con tiniie until a vote is reached. Meet ingsire being held, some to uphold the Ministry, others to sustain Mr. Gladstone. At St. James' Hall a gjjeat meet ing was held on Monday night. Mr. Tho'mas Hughes, M. P., author of "Tom Brown at Rugby," presided. The Dukes of Westminster and Ar- gyle sent letters of sympathy. Reso lutions were passed declaring that for England to engage in war which might have the effect of prolonging Turkish rule would be a crime against the world. The meeting separated 1 1 -i. . , -1 . .4- n at sw in aisoraer, an aumijuuiem uaviug been proposed to vote confidence in Mr. Gladstone. An overflow meeting was also held at Trafalgar Square, at which "counter-resolutions were pro posed expressing confidence in the government and in Mr. Gladstone. It is impossible to say which were carried. Mr. Gladstone gained a partial triumph in the House by a vote to allow him to move his resolutions with Mr. Trevelyan's amendment. In the course of the debate Mr. Gladatoue said: "He did not intend to move a censure on the government, because he did not see what public interest would be thereby pro moted. He did not refrain because he be lieved them uncensurable, forheknew "no chapter in the history of the last sixty years of our foreign policy so deplorable as that of the last eighteen months." He repeated his former accusations as to Sir Henry Elliot's encouragement of the Turks during the conference. The conference became a farce from the moment Turkey was in formed that England would not enforce any decision that might be arrived at. There was a power behind Lord Salisbury which determined he should not succeed, and when the Porte was informed of the fact it drew from the Grand Vizier expres sions of gratitude to Lord Beaconstield. Mr. Layard's mission was another mistake, because Layard is a partisan of Turkey." We are all concerned in this de bate, and we shall watch the conclu sion of the matter with deep interest. HEWING TO TBK LINK. The extreme New York Demo cratic papers are or course grum bling because the Chamber of Com merce ot that great city did not depart from its long established cus- torn, and retuse to invite tne rresi- dent of the Inked States to be present at its annual banquet. One of the papers construes the invitation inio an act to foree Democratic mem bers to recognize Mr. Hayes as Pre sident, and evidently wishes them to return their tickets. Thus far no Democrat has withdrawn, and the demand for seats at the dinner is greater than ever before known. That able and dignified paper, the New York Journal of Coniee,bas this to say, and every well oidered intellect will probably indorse the view.' "Had the Chamber of Commerce left out the President from the list of guests, that Cxctption, made for the first time since it began to give yearly dinners, would have justly provoked censure upon the officers, t happens that the President and the two Vice-Presidents and Treasurer, and a num ber of other officers of the Chamber, are not politically affiliated with the adminis tration. Had they barred Mr. Hayes from the honor uniformly extended to his pre decessors, these gentlemen would have been guilty of a great piece of discourtesy. and could be fairly accused of importing political prejudice into the affairs of the Chamber. They are too well bred to think of committing such rudeness, and since I they have held office it has been their con- 1 keep it strictly to the line of its duty and I worK. it is not invidious to say mat tney have raised the character of the Chamber by utterly purifying it from political bias, and the very last thing that they are likely to do is to stultify themselves and degrade 1 tQe organization they manage by a studied Maior Reno, on trial for indecent approaches to the wife of a brother officer who was absent, and for "using the whole force of his, power as com manding officer of the post to gratify 1 , . , T- ... - nis resentment against her," was found guilty, and his dismissal from the service recommended. The Pres ident has, however, approved the sentence, but is pleased to mitigate the sentence to suspension from rank ta f-w, u iQ.v cf May, 1877; He thinks that in view I of his twentv vears service and : hia .o.t 4u i r00" . IT . 1 . . i . ii i aoie omoer, me sentence snouta De I a t m mitlgated, hopes Ma. Reno wil appreciate the clemency and "th I very reprehensible character of the acts of which he was found guilty." We have but one remark to offer the "clemency" was -unworthily be stowed, and such will be the judg ment of ninety-nine men m a hunr dred throughout the South. Sunset Oox and Representative Sayler indorsed George Butler, who was recently set aside by the Presi dent after having been appointed to office. George, like his wicked old uncle Ben, is a very rotten egg, and Sunset and Sayler should not try to foist such creatures upon the- coun try. It was a blunder to appoint bim, but Democrats recommended him. H : ' Corn has declined. It clo8e! in Baltimore Tuesday at G8 3-4 cents. The decline this Wbk is 3 cents Flour and wheat steady. If the President and his Cabinet i shouldlpllow the army to gradually i disbind besrase the 44th Congress I failed to make the necessary appro ; prialions, as is said to be the talk in j Washington, we shall not put on mourning. We prefer to see retained two, four, or six thousand . as a nucleus, but the other eighteen thou sand, mere or less, can be dispensed with, and safety and economy will thereby be consulted. The Balti more Gazette severely Democratic says: "The arguments in favor of such a course are certainly difficult to answer. Congress, by refusing to make any appropriation for the army, showed that they were of the opinion that its services might be dispensed with. It is not for the executive to assume that Congress, in thus acting, committed a blunder. He might carry out their instruc tions and throw upon Congress the whole responsibility for the destruction of the army." Gov. Robinson, ot New York, has a well balanced brain. He is a strict conservative and is an able aud hon est public servant. His last official act is to veto the bill passed bv the Legislature allowing women to be elected members of public school boards. Right again, Governor. The women have no rights in that direc tion. Let them not be vulgarized by becoming public servants. The vi ragos will put on the war paint and go for him. The Baltimore Sim says: "He thinks there is no valid reason why women should hold such positions unless they -be also permitted to be justices of the peace, road supervisors, town clerks, &e. Their proper sphere, he says, is defined by the Gou of nature. And he prolests that the movement is iu contravention of the spirit and letter of the constitution, which powerful instrument positively prohibits women from voting; and inferential!' from being voted for." Mr. Tilden and Mr. Hayes will sit down to the same table in New York, Mr. Hayes will not feel comfortable, we should think. He knows the past, and the past will not down at his bidding. But since the 4th March both have behaved well. Mr. Tilden has acted with good sense, dignity and calmness. Mr. Hayes has car ried out much of Mr. Tilden'a policy of reform. Read the extracts from the Richmord Dispatch published elsewhere to-day. Oregon has a new invention or de vice, livery liquor annfcer has to be licensed. He cannot even smell a buns-hole without a license. The lquor dealer who sells to an un icensed person is guilty of a penal offence. The public debt of the United States is two thousand and seventy- bur million dollars. The public debt of Great Britain is 776,970, 544. The debt of France is 937, 584,240. Messrs.

Whether it rains or not, be certain to plant corn, potatoes, peas. Tbey will be called for before tbe year ends. Wby the Session of Co icrei was Postponed. Col. A. K. McClure writes from Washington to the Philadelphia limes: "1 believe that the chief consideration that made tbe Presi dent decide to delay the assembling ot Congress was tne possible renewal of sectional agitation by demagogues who call themselves statesmen, and that he is quite willing to accept po litical failure according to the judg ment of partisans, if failure must come, if thereby he can give the country a faithful and peaceful ad ministration of the laws in every part of the Union. Does any one doubt that Ben Wade would gladly recall his rude assault upon the President six months hence, if there shall be such a period of universal tranquility and the prosperity that ever attends it ? And will any one look for Blaine to swing carpet-bag telegrams dra matically iu debate in the Senate to impeach the President, if law and or der shall reign in the South until Congress meets in October? But what would both Wade and Blaine do, and what would scores of hesita ting revolutionists do if the Nicbolls and Hampton governments should prove failures, and riot and murder could be pointed to as the fruits of their rule ? They are charged with the preservation of the peace, with the impartial maintenance of law, and with the restoration of their despoil ed States to economy and integrity in . the administration of their go vernments, and: their failure would restore the heroes of sectional strife to the leadership of a powerful fol lowing, while their success would make all worship at the altar that President Hayes has crowned with the green chaplets of prosperity and peace." u ' "The Democrat-r will not Ultband, Louisville Courier Journal.l ' The Democratic party will hardly disorganize itself for Miv Hayes. It will support such of his measures as it approves, it will divide m others. But if will not abandon its claim to the succession. By 1880 U will have sent its blatherskites to the rear.

Like other, culprits, H must pay the penalty of its excesses. The President can never become a recogniied leader of tile Democrats; he, of course, desires, nothing of the kind; but he can save himself from goiDg to pieces with the party which i rpsnnnsible. among other sins, foir placing: bim in office that rightfully j c nnir to aUOMier. ine wuuwr interested in making a success of his administration.

WASHINGTON TfKULATIOIM. Redaoion In Number of Government Employe. Special to Richmond Dispatch. Washington, May 9. If the reductions already made ri the number of employes in the seve- ral departments ana reirencnmeni in general expenditures be continued during the;next fiscal year, the aggife- gate of money saved will amount to millions, and the economical meas ures of the new administration will rival the sum saved to the public treasury by the last Democratic House. Mr. Holman has been twit ted upon this by some of his late col leagues as illustrating the blindness of the House to some of the plainest modes of effecting retrenchment of public expenses without embarrassing the interests of the government. Re publicans allege that whatever of extravagance there was during the last eight years was due to the laxity of the control of General Grant ovr the administration of affairs, and the loose notions of bis Cabinet counsel lors; and tbey point to the immense sums already saved by the Hayes ad ministration as evidence that the Re publican party meant real reform when they preached the theory from the stump last fall. The fact is,how ever, the Republican leaders are in tensely disgusted that the President turns out to be one of those whd be lieved they actually meant reform and honest government when they said so in the Cincinnati platform The latest sensation at the capital i .i . , -it - n T . it 1 is a report that the Cabinet will ! fall to pieces before many weeks have elapsed by the withdrawal of Devens, McCrary, and Schurz. It appears to be based upon a suspicion of incom patibility of political views on i cur rent questions and personal preju dices among the ministers. The lat ter is said to bo more particularly di rected toward Schurz, because of his severe denunciation of Grantisra when it cursed illmWffi of his present Cabinet colleagues were its earnest supporters ; yet Schurs seems to be utterly uncon- scions of any prejudice towards him- self, and certaiuly has no idea Of. re- . w til lug. MoCrary is believed to have very little sympathy with the President's disposition of Southern questions, and is restive under tbe repression of his own preferences. Besides, there are evidenees of great dissatisfaction with Mr. Hayes from tbe bitter Re publican State which McCrary repre- sen ts. These are not sufficient grounds, however, to warrant the belief that he will let go bis portfolio; and it is improbable that llnvnnn wnnM aten down after having resigned a high L judicial station to go into the Cabi net, except for more potent reasons than can now be assigned. j ,n POLITICAL. POINTS, The Washington Star says that enough Republican Senators have been heard from to make it certain that the President's friends will outnumber his op ponents in tho Senate. Gentlemen at Washington from New Orleans state that Gov. Nicholishas given offence to his supporters by the ap pointment of Pinchback as a member of the School Board of Trustees. Hon. Jesse J. Yeates says the Whig party will fail; that the only party in the country is the Democratic, and that the Republican organization is irrevocably split to pieces. Major xeates is m fine health and spirits. Norfolk Virginian. Tbe Speaker's chair ot the Illi nois Legislature was filled on Friday last by a negro member.

It seems now that about the ouly important patronage being distrib uted is going to Louisiana. The city is full of hungry office-seekers from the Peli can Slate, and no a night passes that the President is not bored with some "distin guished" Louisiana politician who wants an office. Most of them would swallow any policy; naj'an alligator, to succeed. Wash. Star.
