The manner In which the quean announces tho retirement of Mr. Oladitonu to the people v?lll prore In terestlng to AmerlcnnH. It la contained In the court oircular ami In written by a court official. K very word of this circular la generally submitted to the queen In nd Tnnce. The announcement la tinted Wind sor Castle, March 3, and begins thus: "The queen, accompanied by Her ltoynl Highness Princess Beatrice, drove out yes terday afternoon." Then follows a list of arrivals at tho cattle, headed by the names of the children of the Duchess of Albany, Prince and Princess Henry of I'tttenberg, the Hon. Thomas F. llayard, American ambassador to the court of St. James, and the French runbatsndor, elid ing with tl!e mimes of Mr. and Mrs. Glad stone. It then goe.a on to enumerate all those who attended her majesty's dinner, wherein the names of Mr. and Mrs. Glad atone come last. This is followed by the information that the queen aud Princess Iteatrlce went out this morning, nnd then oomes the fact that a cabinet council had been held. Finally, following the announcement anent the council, comes the announce ment that the Itlght Hon. W. K. Glad stone had an audience with the queen aud tendered his resignation, which was gra ciously accepted by her majesty. It adds that tho queen has summoned Karl Rose bery, K. C., secretary of state for foreign affaire, and offered htm the post of prime minister vacated by the Itight Hon. W. E. Gladstone, M. P., aud that Earl Kose bery has acceptod her majesty's offer. Mr. Gladstone yesterday wrote a letter to Earl Hosubery congratulating him upon his accession to the premiership. In his letter Mr. Gladstone promised to aid tho new prime minister whenever his assist ance was asked. It is understood that Earl Itosebory's communication to Sir William Vornon llarcourt has resulted in the latter consenting to retain his position as chancellor of the exchequer and to his accepting ths government leadership in the house of commons. Lord Hosebery was busily engaged all day yesterday. Mr. Herbert Asquith, the homo secretary, and Knrl Spencer, first lord of the admiralty, visited him and re mained for sometime. Afterward Lord Hosebery called upon the Karl of Kim berly nnd offered to hlmthopostof foreign secretary, made vacant by his promotion to the position of prime minister. The new prime minister has appointed Mr. Monroo Ferguson his political private sec retary, The speech from the throne proroguing parliament was signed by the queen on Saturday. It is neither long nor signifi cant. The speech is the last official docu ment prepared by Air. Gladstone. It is stated that Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone will go to Uridgeton tomorrow, and that they will spend taster at HawnrdeuC astlo. Prime Minister Hosebery held his first cabinet council at his residence yesterday atternoon. All tue milliliters were pres ent except Mr. Asquith and Mr. Henry iowler, tue president oi tue local govern ment board, who will retain their offices, Upon its conclusion Lord Hosebery sent a message to the queen, submitting the names of tbe members of tue new cabinet. Premier Hosebery will be given an audi ence by the queen at Buckingham Palace at 8 o'clock this afternoon. Interviews with leading members of tho house of commons show that while a Mo tion of the Radicals continue to stronglv resent the election of Lord Hosebery in- tteaa ot air William Vernon llarcourt as Mr. Gladstone's successor, there is a large preponderance of Liberals who favor loy ally accoptlng liord Hosebery. Mr. Ilenrv Labouchore continues to lead the irrecon- cileables. He hints that they will soon find an opportunity to protest in a prac tical form iu the house of commons against the selection of Lord Hosebery a prime minister. The Times today says: "The prevailing belief is that Mr. .7ohu Morley, chief secretary for Irclund, will go to the Indian office, but there is much doubt regarding his sucoessor as IrUh secretary. If the general desire of his colleage bo that he retain his present offlre be is prepared to do so. To Arbitrate Tlielr DlfT. r. ., s. BELLAIRK.O., March 5.
