" " RETIOLDS, of the Salvation Army, has
received "mar bine orders," in other words he le to
leave Poole for fresh fields and partite,. new. The
" General " had better send "Colonel" Pepper from
Salisbury down bare. He seems a nice sort of man.
The other day be told some wicked scoffers, who
chose to doubt his assertion, that the moment the
breath left his body he would find himself in glory •
that if it were not that he had the grace of Goi in hi.
heart be would pull their noses. The "Colonel" is
evidently a hot member, is feet quite Cayenne Pepper.

mil " Captain " takes with him my best wishes. No
ome ma help feeling a certain amount of sympathy for
a maa who has to gain his livelihood by walling back-
wards hall his life. - -

By the way, I we, from • rather curiously-worded

Ii aggrieved because the job was given to a member of
the Army. I can't redly me what there is to be
annoyed M. Most people mike it • rule to play with
their playmates, and the "General" would be very
ungrateful did he not divide the loaves and fishes
=mg those who help him keep up the show. If the
aggrieved builder had only reflected for • moment he
would not have wasted time, pen.and.ink and paper
in tendering.

To turn to matters which are really worthy of notice,
I may draw tbe attention of my residers to a couple of
votes given by our Member during the post week. In
the first, on Friday be made one of the victorious
majority, which best the Government by 13 votes. It
was simply upon the question as to the tumes during
which the Irish police should be empowered to searoh
house in which they had reasonable cause to think
traitors, against law and order, or unlawfully-puma-03
arms and amithition, were orsackaled. Mind you I the
Government in their Crime Prevention Bill, in the
first place, had incorporated a clause that the power
of search at any time out of the 24 hours should be con.
levied upon the oolistabolary ; but, the Irish members
drew such a piteous picture of the blushing agony
whkh would be felt by the Colson Been should she
be seen in her night-dress by owe of the " dirthy pk-
lakernes" that they strosic it out, and made the Bill
applicable only to the hours between run-rise and no-

It would be just as about in wartime' with
common mum if Mr. Superintendent Bunt baring an
idea that a large quantity of stolen property was to be
found In a certain house in Poole, seat a pot-card
saying, "My dear sir, or ms.iiim las the cam might be)
