LONDON , Nov. C. [ Now Yoik Herald
Cable Special to the 15in. ] The descend-
unts ot two lord chancellors of Knghind have
this weuk shown that not even the loul chan
cellor himself can entail his estate so as to
prevent its sale by spendthiltt heirs. On
Wednesday Hoddison , of Clianceiy Lane ,
auctioned off the rcmants of Lord Cairn's
splendid law llbraiy for S2.2flO. llio great
Lord Cairns , of Foitescuc ( ! rant fame , was
not present , but a number of eminent deal
cis attended on the chance oC picking up a
few valuable volumes which bad survived the
cullinc piocess through which thu Ilbiary has
passed since its piivato sale --omo months
ago. During the whole of thi1veek ; Lamloy
also has been engaged in auc
tioning of tbo household ellccts
of another recent lord chancellor
Lord St. Leonaid. The ynction sale was held
at I3oylo farm , a pretty sidu place winch was
built by the old Boylu family one hundred or
more years ago and sold by them to pay tbo
debt of the ( unions gambling Lord Dcros. It
was now resold by ordur ot the court of
cbanceiy on account of the debts and other
troubles of thu piesont notorious Lord St
Leonard. Boyle Farm Is just below Hamp
ton Couit and has a wide and beautiful river
frontage now soon to be cut up into build
Ing lots the house of the Georgian times
flat-fronted and ugly , even the big entrance
hall spoiled by the low ceiling. The grounds ,
although neglected , are pretty enoiiirh to
make up for tlio deficiencies of tlio House ,
lioth are rather famous among the country
neighbors for the wild pranks committee
hero by the present lord.
IIISTOISIC
To this came the undurtakois , snnimonci
by the great lord chancellor's giandson am
heir , to lay out his still living giandfathcr.
The oht.Iawyer politely showed the under
takers to tlio door , and then immediately
drew an entail so btilct that his grandson is
now toreed to live In Australia on Sr < 00
a year allowed him by the tiustucs , while his
plctmcs , furnltine , etc. , bilng 80,000,000 In a
single week's salo. On these grounds
the piesunt lord held some of Ins
wildest sprees , fiom ono of which
ho went to commit the assault on
a tavern chambermaid which sent him to jail
tor six months. This felony enabled his
wile , a great heliess In her own light , to pro
cure a divorce. In Austialla his loidsblp has
recently been In jail for the theft ot a coat ,
\vhllehlswlfuuvciib no the family reputa
tion by devoting hoiself to charity and the
opening of charity bazaars. The utmost that
Is now hoped from Lord St. Leonards
Is that ho will not retinn fiom
his Ansliallan jail to resume his plaeo
in thu house of lords.

ST. Pin-nnsnuno , Nov. 0. [ New Yoik
Herald Cable Special to the Uci.J : The
feeling in diplomatic circles beio Is that in
spite of the noisy , bombastic bind and swag
ger ot England , and of tlio more dignified
but sullen growls of Austiia , no power in
Kuropo vv onld move a single soldier or sailor
to icstiain Russia from acting as she pleases
in Bulgaria. A Russian statesman , who
was a member of tlio cabinet under tbo late
emperor , said tome to-day : "It was solely
due to Russian blood and Russian money
that Bulgaiia ever obtained her existence as
a nation. Thu Bulgarians are like iininly
schoolboys. If they mutiny against Russia
they must be flocgcd , that's all , and nobody
in Kuiope would prevent their chastisement.
Hcsiilcs , Bulgaria Is now on the verge of an
archy , and affords no sccmlty or protection
to Russian subjects and Russ Ian prop
erty. Kngland under similar circum
stances bomliaidcd Alexandiia and
occupied Kgypt , thus alfoullng a
valuablu pieccdentjfor our acllon In Bul
garia. But Russia is , In foreign politics ,
moro liberal and morn lorbeailng than Kng
land. Wu do not even dream of bo mharding
and deslioylng Ararna , which , after all ,
would bo a very small affair compared with
England's wanton dcstinotion ot tlie second
commeiclalmctiopollsot the Jludltmrancan.
Nor do wo Intend to occupy Bulgaria , as
Kngland did I'Vypt. unless , of coinse , luture
ov ents compel us to do so. As to tliu hjturo
pi luce of Bulgaria , the essential condition Is
that ho should belong in religion lo tliu 01 tho-
dox deck chinch. "
I remarked , "That would bar Piinco Wai-

The icply was , "Yes , " and the interview

it Is no fcoipt hero that tor some time past

Spanish minister. Mnruaga , and Ilia oilglnal

SenorMorct in Mailiiil. The latter had stip
ulated that thu old contention of 1SSI should
remain In foicu until January 1 , l T , and
that the new tieaty sliould be negotluted be-
fold that date , vvhccas ) it seems Hint thu statu
derailment and the Spanish minister in
Washington lixeil no timu lot duration of a
modus vlvendlvhlch grants to American
products and all aiticle.s , even foieit'n. pro
ceeding trom the UnlttU' States , under tie )
Aiucilcau tla. , lower duties ot.tho thhd col
umn of Cuban tariff In exchange for lhoropc.il
of the 10 per cent ndvaloiem duty on Spanish
West Indian Imports. Scnor Moret and
Minister Currle , when they llxed a delay and
virtually agreed that If the treaty were not
neeotlated i before January 1 , 187 , a d"forcn-
tlal I treatment of imports would bo lencwcd
on both sides , bad grave ro.isons for so dolnsr.
The prcssuie brought to bear on the Madild
government by public opinion In thcco'onles ' ,
and by their lupiesentatlves ot every shade
In tbo cortex , and thu well known free trade
inclinations of Scnor Morel , are very nearly
balanced by tlie protection Influences of the
shipping and manufacturing Interests icnic-
sen led In llio cabinet by tbo colonial sccie-
tary of state , Senor Balabncr. Scnor Moict ,
dliectly bo relumed from a few days holiday
In tbo north of Spain , wiole lo Minister
Cm rlo that he was ready to begin negotia
tion. Though both Moret and Cunle show
great reserve , It Is considered almost cer
tain that they will negotiate n convention
similar to that ot General Foster in issi.
The only stumbling block and great difficulty
will a aln bo the exclusion of other count ! lea
fiom the concessions which Spiln may make
lo the United Stites In Cuba and Porlo Uico.
American diplomacy Insists that a icclpioclty
tieaty Is a special bargain in consideration
for ceilaln special advantages cionted by ono
party to the other which creates special re
ciprocal advantages that nations which have
he most favored nations' clause In their con-
enllons cannot claim unless they Hist giant
pain special advantages equivalent to the o
liat America would give by tills reclpioclly
reaty. It Is no seciet that at the time ol thn
[ 'oicst-Eduayln treaty the Ficnch anil Gcr-
iian governments protested aealnst these
lews of American diplomacy , and more ie-
enlly Ihltlsh Minister Sir Claie-Foid has
old Senor Moiet that he held Kngland to be
ntttled -whatever advantages any treaty
nay grant tbo United Stales in thu Spanish
, Vest Indies. The piotentlons of tbo Kuio-

ivhon American imports were granted the
liiid column of West Indian taillf by the
lonventlon of ISS , and recuntly the Billl h ,

criticises tbo speech for not showing
