London, June 9—In the
House • of Commons last
night, the Hon. Hash Chil-
ders, chancelor of the ex-
chequer, announced that the
government had decided not
to refnnd to tax payers the
amount of the increase of
duties on spirits, paid over
and above the extra shilling
per gallon formerly decided
on, because consumers had
been charged higher rates
after the announcement of the
original increase. The gov-
ernment would, however, cause
inquiry to be made to ascertain
if there existed sufficient reason
to modify this decision.
After a long debate on the
new spirit tax, Sir Stafford
Nortbcote and several others
having spoken in opposition.
Mr. Gladstone arose to reply.
He thought that the opposition
were creating a precedent
which they would regret when
they came into power again.
The previous reduction of
wine duties bad a beneficial
effect in preventing adultera
tion and increasing the trade
tnany millions annually. It
would be móst impolitic to in-
crease the wine duty. Under
the most extreme pressure
the government were com-
pelled to raise money in view
of the impending danger to
the empire, a danger which
evpp now was unable to say
b d passed away. The opposi-
tion cavillod at the mode of
raising the money without sug-
gesting an alternative. Tea
would require an additional
tax of three pence per pound
wh All work attended to with great
go-promptness mid dispatch,
abs Quality of work guaranteed.

Referring to the notice of tlio
)ublication of Lord VVolse-
ey's dispatches denouncing
the evacuation of the Soudan.
He warns the government that
on the withdrawal from Don-
gola the wbol«; province will
be .given up to anarchy and
will revert from civilization to
barbarism. The withdrawal,
be says, will not avoid the
struggle. The Mahdi in a few
yearswill attack Egypt Year
of internal trouble in Egypt
have been a burden and strain
on her military resources. The
best policy in both a military
and financial point of view
would be to attack the Mahdi
at Khartoum.

ministers will attempt no
measures calculated to give
the liberals a chance to gain a
victory. They willjrecast the
budget in accordance with the
votes ot tho house, and when
the estimates are passed will
dissolve parliament. The Par-
nellites count upon the laps-
ing of the coercion measure.
The ¿ministerial circle taken
the defeat with equanimity.
It is supposed that the cabinet
in view of the tendency to dis-
ruption and internal discord,
were willing to take advan-
tage of a chance to resign.
The crisis postpones indefinite
lv a settlement with Russia.
The conservatives will adopt
Karl Granville's frontier con-
vention, but will insist upon
gtringent guarantees against a
further Russian advance.

The Standard in an editorial
says : We cannot believe that

they like it or not, agree to

The Standard says that Earl
Spencer wanted the duration
ot the crimes set to be three
years, but a compromise on
two years was agreed to. A
bill drafted undor Earl Spen-
cer's direction has been consi-
dered by the cabinet. It is a
comprehensive measure of lo-
cal. self-government for Ire
land, including tho abolition
of tho viccroyalty.

patch from Cairo says: Some
excitement has been created
here among tho Engli.Mli olli-

tic merchant from Khartoum.
He states that he witnessed
the capture of Khartoum, and
that immediately after tho
massacre of tho garrison the
Mahdi demanded the head of
(jeueral Gordon for a trophy,
but his warriors produced the
head of the Austrian consul,
Mr. Hansel. When tho mis-
take was discovered a second
search was made for General
Gordon, but the Mahdi's fol-
lowers Wro unable to iiod t\
trace of the her of Khartoum
They found several other Euro-
peans, but no doenmeuta were
found on their clothes to show
that either of them was Gen-
eral Gordon. The Coptic says
it is possible that Gen. Gor-
don, seeing that all was lost,
escaped south.

diffictily encountered by the
conservatives in their discus-
sions regarding tho formation
of a ministry, says the Pall
Mall Gazette is the problem,
what to do with Lord Randolph
Churchill, lie claims to have
done much in the work of de
livering the government and
demands his share of tiie spoils.
It is apparent that the older
tories regard liiin as trouble-
some and somewhat dangerous
to have around hi national
councils.

The Gazette intimates that
a polite effort will be inado
to got rid of him. J f tho con-
servatives form a government
he will, it is said, be requested
to go to Ireland. If not to
succeed Earl Spencer as lord
lieutenant, then as chief sec-
retary. Lord Randolph is
susceptible to flattery and lie
might prove a great Irish
governor.
