things, and when I take that line I assure you there are scores of men who
absolutely laugh at me, and sometimes make very unpleasant remarks
Lord P—. " Ower mony maisters," as the Paddock said to the
Harrow. But they are heartily welcome to abuse me, if they will only
vote right.

Sir W. G. H— (solemnly). Believe me, my dear Lord, that is
just what they won't do. See how we got beaten on Monday night! If
they only unlearn old habits, and get used to dividing against ua, there's
no-saying to what lengths their spirit of "independence" may carry them
Why, it was only the other day ROEBUCK told me he was "an old bird"—
Lord Striking novelty in zoology !
Sir W. G. And BRIGHT said I might be DAULAR, but he
wasn't SAMSON. I don't know what he meant, but I'm sure it was some-
thing unpleasant.

Lord P—srm Well, my dear Dalilah, what is to be the upshot ?
The Thanes Ay from us, it seems. How are we to rally them ? I
suppose you haile sounded our "Independent" friends as to their wishes in
the event of a new Liberal Government being formed. How many seats
in the Cabinet do they want ? You might mention three on speculation.
No promise, of course, but merely as a friendly hint.

Sir W. G. H—. I'm afraid it wouldn't do—

Sir W. G. H—. They say they want a programme
"Lord P—. A—how much ?
Sir W. G. H—. A formal programme, my Lord, of what they call
"substantive reforms," which you and Lord JOHN must undertake to carry
for them.

Lord P—. I'll see them d—l mean in as favourable a light as I
can. But I must know what they are. Dear me, how oppressive this
heat is. I must take a leaf out of CLARENDON'S book, and start a

Lord P—. Over boots, over shoes, eh ? Well, I don't like it, but
if they forget the tenth commandment that's their look-out. I won't
meddle with them. "What next ? (Fans himself with a newspaper.)
Sir W. G. ll—. A large measure of Reform—in fact, something
very like household suffrage.
Lord P—. No no—that won't do—it's premature altogether. Bat
you may tell 'em we'll trump Dizzy's highest card in that line. That
must content them, surely. Might I trouble you to set that window a little
