(To the Editor of the Evening Star.) Sib—Permit me to warn those Con servative disciples who accept the Auck land Herald as their journalistic prophet, that tbe writer of its leading articles may sometimes prove a false prophet. In the Herald's leading article of the tbe 13th inst., referring to tbe results of the English elections, and the Conserva tive mejorify of 24 at that dab, the fol lowing statements appear:—"The general election may now be said to be over. . . We believe that this msjority will be in creased by the returns still to bo re- j ceived. . . . Home Bule is dead. . , « The present general election has, we believe, settled that question for ever " There was a possibility of the Conserva tives being returned to power again in England, owing to the secession of certain Liberals, who left their party on the question of Home Bule for Ireland, and joined the Conservatives as '' Unionists." But from latest cablegrams we learn that Mr Gladstone has now a majority of 38 If the Herald is disappointed at the Conservatives being in a minority, it may leern the reeson by knowing that, thaoks to " vote by ballot," tbe tenant farmer is not now obliged to vote as his landlord directs him, nor the working man accord ing to the instructions of his capitalist employer. As a Liberal I am rejoiced to learn that tbe English electors, like their brethren in New Zealand, have placed a Liboral Governmental the head of affaire; and, as the result, I hope they will legis late so that we will not be told in tbe future, as we have beard in the past, that tbe rich in England are getting richer and the poor poorer,—l am. &c, 0 Justice to All,
