Special to Press Association. London, Dec ‘2B. It is announced, that tho Admiralty have decided to replace all Her Majesty’s sailing vessels on the Australian station with steamships. Mr Gladstone, on his arrival at Dover, was hooted and snowballed. He addressed the assemblage, and said it was impossible to rely upon the present Government for a continued existence of Freotrade. The Liborals, he argued, would not stand by and see the work of a century undone. Bubear ridicules the challenge he has received by cable from Hanlan to row on the Thames for £SOO a-sido and the championship of England, and for £SOO a-side on tho Tyne for the championship of the world if the championship is held by Hanlan. The Earl of Dunraven, in a letter to the Daily Telegraph, suggests that the House of Lords should consist of a hundred members elected from Peers of the Realm.
The Daily Telegraph is advocating a systematic emigration of unemployed and others to Western Australia.
