BRITISH POLITICS.
SPEECH BY LORD ROSEBERY. LONDON, March 11. Lord Rosebery last night delivered his promised address at Glasgow, where he received an ovation. Ho disclaimed having designs on the leadership—he simply desired to make the Liberal party more patriotic. His severance from Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, he declared, was not personal. The jubilation of tho Nationalists in tho House of Commons over the disaster to Lord Methuen’s force, his Lordship declared, was further proof that Ireland could not be trusted with an independent Parliament. Ho refused to further reveal’ his programme until called upon to prescribe. (Received March 13, 0.30 a.m.) LONDON, March 12. In his speech at Glasgow, Lord Rosebery spoke of Britain’s “firmness an'd equanimity in seeing this thing through. In the history of tho Empire a reverse was a momentary incident, not retarding for a single day the flow of fortune.”
