He was educated at Eton and Christ Church, Oxford, and at both places early developed High Church tendencies, and those Tory principles which he apparently inâ€" herited from his father. At school he contributed largely to The Eton Misâ€" cellany, and subsequently took an active part in the discussions of the Oxford Union. He was married in 1839 to Miss Catherin» Glynne, daughâ€" ter of Sir Stephen R. Glynne, of Haâ€" warden Costle, Flintshire. ENTERS PUBLIC LIFE. Shortly after the passing of the first Reform Bill, in 1832, Mr.. Glads‘tvone made his entry into pwblic life at New-( ark, where he was elected, as the Duke: of Newcastle‘s nominee, in the Tory inâ€" terests, defcating Sergeant Wilde, the popular candidate. It was on May i7 1833, that he delivered his maiden speech in the House of Commons, in reply to Lord Howick, on the slavery qusstion, when he expressed himself as opposed to slavery, Lut not in favor of hasty and wholesale enfranchiseâ€" On the death of Sir Robert Peel, in 1850, Mr, Gladstone paid his memorable visit to Naples, which laid, the foundaâ€" tion of his future friendship, with Cavâ€" our and Garibaldi. During this period he finally severed himself from the Tories, although holding aloof from the Liberals, for a time, and in 1852 became Chancellor of the Exchequer in Lord Aberdeen‘s mdministration, but fell with the collapse of that Cabinet after the Crimean War. Subsequently he was appointed by the Earl of Derby Lord High Commissioner to the lonian Isâ€" lands. CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER In 1859 he accepted the Chancellorâ€" ship of the Exchequer in Lord Palmerâ€" ston‘s Government. His budgets were always looked forward to with absorbâ€" ing interest; but no little sensation was caused by that of 1861, which anâ€" nounced the total repeal of the muchâ€" debated paper duty. On the dissoluâ€" tion of 1865, Mr. Gladstone was rejectâ€" ed at Oxford, but was returned for South Lancasbire, receiving great ovaâ€" tions at Manchester and Liverpool, On the death of Lord Palmerston in the auâ€" tumn of that year, Earl Russell, beâ€" came, Premier ; his old foe, Mr. Gladâ€" stone, being the leader of the new! Reâ€" form bill, a " cave," was formed) in the House of Commons, and the Ministry fell in 1866, to be succeeded by the Earl of Derby‘s Government, with Mr. Disâ€" raeli, as leader in the Commons, who passed a bill in 1867, by the operation known as " dishing the Whigs." It was in this year that Mr. Gladâ€" stone made his famous declaration in favor of disestablishing the Irish A BIOGRAPHY Newâ€" Church. In February 1868 Mr. Disraeli became Prime Minvister, but Parliament was dissolved in the following Novemâ€" ber, when Mr. Gladstone, rejected in Southwest Lancashire, was elected for Greenwich. In the Parliament of 1869 he becamePremier for the first time, and thence up to the dissolution of 1874 a number of important measures were placed on the statute. book. The Irâ€" ish Church, baving been disestablished and while Europe was distracted with the Francoâ€"Prussian War, the Liberal Government carried the Elementary Education Act, the Irish Land, Act, the Abolishment of Purchase in the Army, by Royal warrant, the Act for Abolâ€" ishing University Tests, and the Balâ€" lot Act, but they were beaten on the Irish University Education bill in 1873 and Mr. Disraeli returned to power in 1874. THE BULGARIAN ATROCITIES, Mr. Gladstone then decided to resign the leadership of the Liberal party, but in 1875 aroused much public indigâ€" nation against the atrocities which the Turks were perpetrating in Bulgaria, In 1879 he made his first visit to Midloâ€" thian, and on the dissolution of 1880 be was returned for that constituency, and became for the second time Premâ€" Amongst the important Acts he carâ€" ried between 1880 and 1885 may be menâ€" tioned the Employers‘ Liability Act, the second Irish Land Act, the Hares and Rabbits Act, a reform in the Land Laws, and chief of all, the third Reform Act and Redistribution Act. After the dissolution of the autumn of 1885, Mr. Gladstone again came forward for Midâ€" lothian, and was reeleoted by an enâ€" _ ormous majority. ; On the fall of the Salisbury Adminâ€" istration, January 26, 1886, Mr. Gladâ€" stone was summoned by the Queen to again take office. He then held as Premier the office of First Lord of the Treasury and Keeper of the Privy Seal. In consequence of a divergence of views between some of the leading members of the Liberal party and Mr. Gladstone with respect to his proposed Irish polâ€" icy, several of his old colleagues, notâ€" ably Lord Hartingtor, and Sir H. James, did not join his Cabinetâ€"Mr. Chamberlain and Mr. Trevelyan, who accepted office, resigning March 27. THE UPRISING OF THE UNIONISTS. Mr. Gladstone introduced bills relatâ€" ing to the government and land of Ireâ€" land, the former in a great speech on April 8, and the salo and purchase of land (Ireland) bill on the 16th. But in the meantime the revollt of a large section of the Liberal party, who were known as Unionists, became pronouncâ€" ed, and on April 14 a @great Unionist meeting was held at her Maâ€" jesty‘s Theatre to protest against both the Home Ruls and the Land Purchase bills which, the Premier had announcâ€" ed, were indissolubly tied together..On May 10 the second reading of the Gavâ€" ernment of Ireland hbiil was moved in the House of Commons, and a lengthy debate commenced. On May 27 a meetâ€" ing was called by Mr. Gladstone at the | Foreign Office the invitation being isâ€" | sued to "all members of the liheral‘ party, who are desirous, while retu'ln-‘ ing full freedom on all the particulars | of the Irish Government ball, to vote | in favor of the establishment of a Ieg-'. islative body in Dublin for the manageâ€" \| ment of the affairs specificalty wmd . e xcrusively fArish." _ Morse ¢han 200 members attended.

At a Cabinet Council on the same day the Government resoived to» resign, the annoumcement being made in Parliaâ€" ment on June 10, the Sale and Purchase of Land, Ireland, hbill being on the same evening withdrawn. On June 1i Mr. Gladstone issued bis election address, and on June 17 left London for another Midiothian camâ€" paign, his progress to the north being yet again marked with every sign of enthusiasm. On July 2 Mr. Gladstonse was elected for both Midlothian and Leith, and chose to sit for his old conâ€" stituency, but the result of the generâ€" al election was to deprive him of powâ€" er. During the remainder of that year and throughout 1887 little of special importance occurred, though Mr. Gladâ€" stune delivered many speedhes, both in the Hoase and the country, on Home Rule. He visited Italy early in 1888 and, was most warmly received, In September he again visited Italy, reâ€" turoing in February, 189.

"Etmdies in Homer" folâ€" lowed. and "Juventus Mundi," while the pamphlet on the "Bulgarian Horâ€" rors‘" is still fresh in memory.
