THE MAN WHO LAUGHS.

In one of Viet ,r Hugo's celebrated works the chief
character is L'hometas qua rig, ••'fhe man who laughs,"
who is described as having "C mouth stretching trona
ea • to ear, ears coming forwent upon his eyes, •
shapeless za se adjusted fur balancing the spectacles .1
a grimace maker, and a count/nose. that you could
not look at without laughing." Not having scrutinised
the c untenasce of the member for itti loon, we
cennot ray whether Mr. Warkw answers to the a4ove
description, but that he has a claim to the title or
" the man who laughs" is iacoatertsble. A wan in
the Gallery ye that in the Tiqaca report of the
Transvaal debate it is state(' that when Mr. Gladstone
referral to Air. Rathbones speech as able, it is repre-
sented as being followed by 1°4(1 laughter, whereas it
turned out to be only the nnisy member for Brilport,
who came out with a loud gsffaw. The man was
already famous for his band .noa, but, to his nasal
performance, is n,w t 133 a•l1c1 the ability to laugh
like a mitititade. Henceforth let us give him his
proper title Ekossmsic qui rit—" The man who
laughs."

The following letter has I;ecu received at the publish-
ing office of the Telegram.
Poole, Dorset, August Bth, Ism
- -

. _
Sir,— I am instructed by the c^rninittee of the (141.
fellows demonstr.tion to write'you with reference to the
report of their dsmonsirsitin which appeared in your
paper of yeaterdar'd date. From my own observation I
can say that the whole of the report in its main parts is
a tissue of lies, and a most Infamous libel n a body of
respectable working men, and my iris' ruc,ions are tocsm
menus proceedines irnmodiat.dy against you. unless you
withdraw your remarks uocon iitionally, and tender a
public apology bo,h in your roper and in writing to the
committee. A more dastardly and cowardly attempt to
Injure a Friendly Society has never been perpetrated.—
Your obedient servant.
P. S. Li.Oltit BUMS.

The Editor of the Dorset Telegram, • l5o;c-lia;t-ar-:-
Our. cortospondent observes on this :
It is all very well for Mr. Budge to designate the whole
of my report, in al wain ports, • " Unglue of lies," but I
should be glad if he would kindly point out from his
"own observation " where I have shown myself •
perrerter of the truth. Is he prepared to deny that the
Invitation to Mr. Schreiber to preside caused considerable
diversity of opinion—to put it mildly—in the ranks of
the committee, and that one if not more resigned in eon-
sequence? Is it not a fact that Mr. Schreiber was told
to go home with the rest of" the 14"? Can Mr. Budge
affirm in the face of testimony which can be borne by
hundreds of unprejudiced witnesses and the poliee that
the scene when Mr. Schreiber had left the field, and Mr.
Budge himself had dutifully trotted after him,,bocame
simply one of drunken riot?

It is hardly needful, however, for me to pursue his
further. Let me quote Mr. Budge's own words need
before the magistrates on the following morning when
he very successfully defended—(that is he got him off
with a flne)—a man who at this vary Plc kicked up a
row and gave a policeman a black eye. Mr. Budge Mid:
"The rain came down, and every one rushed into the
tent, and speaking had to he put a stop to. The. a
general row began, and one would shout what did you
knock over my mother for," and another "just you
mind my sister," and it was during that unnatural
excitement,

One word more I dumb' like to y. and that is that
in my report I in no way intendoi—nor does a perusal
of the paragraph show me that I have—to reflect upon
the Oddfeflows themselves. I simply gave what I
believed to be a fair comment upon the proceedings.
and the honesty and truthfulness of that comment I
think I have proved by the utterances of Mr. Budge
