LONDON, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 13.

Thre.e is a formof dual devotion occasionally to
Le found in families of which the principal charac-
teristic is the use which it makes of the parents'
name to engender discordamong the children. The
reotlicr who has just succeeded in soothing a rising
store has scarcely left her offspring to themselves
when she is recalled by fresh symptoms of strife
and confusion. On her re-entry, she finds that
her leteific endeavours have evidently been all
threwn away. The former combatants are again
arrayed against each other, and her intervention is
claimed by one of them on the plea that he has
°el; beau acting in support of the maternal autho-
rity. " I was only telling my brother," cries the
itinecent aggressor, " how badly he had been
" behaving to you, and he: got into a passion
"a;ain.- It is in vain that this too dutiful infant
is hidden to mind his own business, and
leave his mother to assert her supre-
macy. The having such a stone to throw at
the fraternal head seems to make it his obvious
duty not to keep it useless in his hand, and finally
his arent finds the genuine rebel far less trouble-
some to deal with than the little Pharisee who has
so estentatiously enlisted himself on the side of
doniestie order. The dispositions which disturb the
nor--ry are apt to re-appear in later life. Ina 3th
of November row at Oxford, it is, we have heard,
an ap;reved undergraduate expedient to raise a cry
of " !hip the Proctor," in the hope—usually, it
met confessed, a vain one—of diverting that
wary etlicisl from his search after University dello-
; and many people can tell what it is to
sueer film the devotion of an over-zealous friend,
vth> let'ite on saddlin; them with half-s-dozen
r.tees, on the pretence that he is standing up for
the.ir Llnt of all the mischievous defenders
cf aetlesaities which could dispense with their
snt.;e:t, the Orangemen of Ireland may
the uncontested palm. No other body
have suce...edcd in noing so near to treason
.ee,e of loyalty, in producing so good an
helto tien of civil war in the alleged interests of
p. r. • e ;11 frustrating the legitimate ends of go-
!It nl.ile professing to obey its laws, or in
•• to be the bulwark of "civil and religious
erty," while they are ministering all the time
to l•-.:..hrian and exclusive tyranny. It is hardly
ten to say that, if this pestilent organization
he,' never been set on foot, the final pacification
cf ei.and would not be still unachieved, and that
