He is no more capable of writing "to meet sir Stafford Northcote and Lord salis bury" on his dinner card-thus ignoring the high personal rank of the latter without knowing thoroughly what he is about, than he is of com- manding the Channel fleet; and so it has come to be talked of to-day for the first time that it is an accepted fact that Sir Stafford Northcete is publicly recognised, with Lord Salisbury's full assent, as his leader and the chief of the Opposi tion in both Houses.
