A CAUTION.

Although rogues seem to have an endless variety
of tricks for catching fools, displaying an ingenuity
in conception and a skill in carrying them out
which is amazing, they occasionally resort to
some of the good old-fashioned modes of robbery.
After a time they reckon that people have forgotten
some of their plans. Pimlico, Brompton, and
other neighbourhoods have lately been favoured
with visits from a well-dressed gentleman seeking
apartments. He would manage to get an insight into
some of the valuable contents of an upper bedroom.
He would then descend to the drawing-room, and
ask for pen and ink to write his reference. As the
housekeeper descended to the lower parts of the
house for materials, the enterprising man ascends to
the upper. On one occasion he did not come down
soon enough to anticipate the occupants of the house,
and his career is likely to be cut short by incarcera-
tion in one of her Majesty's gaols. There may be
some new features in this mode of thieving which
would entitle the man to a patent, but the general
utune is so old, that we wonder people are taken
_in
by it. I

" FANCY " BREA24
',The great 6-N-rns which arose in consequenee of the
baker selling his bread by measure and measuring it
by his eye, caused an Act to be passed in the reign cl
George IV. prohibiting the sale of bread other than
by weight. A provision, however, was inserted which
exempted " fancy " bread. That proviso has been the
source of continual irritation. At the time this was
passed the fancy brea.d was that baked intins, or crusted.
Other bread, being joined, had only the top and
bottom crusted. " Fancy " bread was then rare ; it
was indulged in only by the better class. Since then,
however, the times have changed—old manners gone.
The fancy bread, once the exception, has become the
rule. One rarely sees now the "ordinary loaf," as it
was then called. At any rate, it is not commoner
than other kinds of bread. The population seems
to have a liking for crust, and gets it. The
proviso, therefore, really opens the door for
fraud, fraud that cannot be punished. The
time, therefore, has come when the clause should be
repealed, and good weight secured to everyone, no
matter whether they prefer crust or not.

VERDICTS.
The jury has returned a verdict of "accidental
death" at the inquest upon the poor man killed by
the fall of a warehouse in Rigby-street, Liverpool.
They recommend competent inspection of build-
ings which are used for warehouses without being
originally built for them. The late accident of a
similar character at Hull, would suggest a periodical,
inspection of all warehouses. Some philanthropist
might take the general subject in hand
for the next session of parliament, and turn
his attention to boiler accidents and explosions
at the same time. The coroner's jury in the case of
the Newnham accident will hardly acquit everyone of
Jame in the eyes of those who have lately turned
their attention to these railway accidents, though it
so pleasantly whitewashes the company and its
servants,

hope to emerge in any conspicuous degree invigo-
rated, there are reasms rendering it very desir-
able that we should direct attention once m)re to
one, at least, among the more remarkable of the
stormier contestsnow in preparation. We refer to that
struggle nearest at hand of all---in the very seat of the
Legislature—the conflict through which Mr. SMrrII,
as the Conservative candidate, is resolved, if he
possibly can, to wrest from the Liberals the power
of returning one at any rate of the representatives for
the City of Westminster.. And the prospect there is
of his doing so is, beyond all question of it, very for-
midable indeed. If successful in his endeavour, very
much indeed of the result will be directly trace able
--who can doubt it for one instant?—to the extra-
ordinarily perverse, eccentric, and unjustifiable pro-
ceedings of that serene philosopher and model states-
man, Mr. JOIN STUART MILL. His malignant perse-
cution of ex-Governor EIRE alienated hundreds of
his supporters to begin with. is inconsistency
in declining to contribute sixpence towards the
payment of his own electioneering expenses at the
very time he went out of his way to forward (unasked)
ten pounds sterling towards the payment of the elec-
tioneering expenses of Mr. BRADLAUGH down at
Northampton, went considerably further towards
shaking the confidence still cherished in regard to his
candidature by many others who gave him their vote,
and contributed for him their money at the time of the
last General Election. His dictatorial tone towards
Mr. BOUVERIE, coupled with his preposterously
exaggerated eulogiums upon Mr. CHADWICK, dis-
gusted a large number of others, among those
hitherto numbered up as his most faithful fol-
lowers. The objection already referred to, how-
ever, as having been raised against his pecuniary
contribution towards the funds collecting in favour
of the working man's candidate at Northampton, was
directed less against the inconsistency involved in his
transmission of the ten-pound note than against the
fact of Mr. BRADLAUGH being a notorious blasphemer.
In regard to the circumstance of Mr. BRADLAUGH
being a blasphemer, Mr. MILL has never hard the
decency to utter one word in the way of ex-
tenuating his own conduct in picking such
a man as that out for his praises and
his pounds sterling. Noscitur a sociis is an epigram-
matic phrase having a core of truth in it. And
with Mr. BRADLAUGH, Mr. MILL was the very
one to put himself into direct association before the
public. After the blasphemies had been pointed out
he might have repediated all knowledge of them—
though even then he would have been just as cul-
pable in commending a man, of whom he knew so
little, to any liberal constituency, as Mr. GLADSTONE
was in evidencing such fatherly interest in a
man like Mr. Fimeeer, a man of the lowest and most
miserable antecedents. Instead of doing anything
I like this, however, instead of deprecating any assecia-
tien of his name directly or indirectly with the
hideous impieties set forth by Mr. BRADLAUGII, that
pet candidate of his for the suffrages of the Liberal
working men of Northampton, Mr. MILL never opens
his lips even once upon the matter, never gives the
faintest indication as to the sentiments with which he
himself regards the opinions enunciated by Mr. BRAD-
LAUGH in the matter of religion.
The Philosopher has written a letter, however,
in answer to one of his own canvassers, in

reference to an inquiry as to whether or not
Mr. MILL himself is an Atheist. And a more
astounding reply to any such inquiry we suppose
never before was penned by mortal man. It is worth
examining minutely. In fact, it appears to us
to be a solemn duty on the part of every elector in
Westminster, to examine it minutely. Having said
this, we shall give, first of all, the canvasser's inquiry
—beginning " Mr. MILL, Sir," and which is thus ex-
pressed in two sentences : "As a volunteer can-
vasser and committee man (St. Anne's district) I
have met several refusals to vote for you on account
(as the voters say) of your being an atheist. It would
give me great satisfaction, and also secure a large
number of votes for the Liberal cause, if you would
in some public manner contradict what I consider a
slander upon your public character." Now, cour-
teous'y put, that involves a plain question enough,
and-0113 might reasonably expect—would, as a
matter of course, elicit a correspondingly plain an-
swer. Yes or No? Atheist or No Atheist? That
is all any one wants to know. And the
alternative involved is one of so momentous a cha-
racter, is one of such stupendous importance, we
won't say between Man and GOD, because that is for
the moment beside the question, bat between Man
and Man, that one might ordinarily expect any one to
come to the point at once—very certainly, at least,
any one who was not an Atheist. Not so'
however, Mr. MILL, who is a Philosopher, and
a Logician, and a Statesman. Take his reply,
sentence by sentence. Here is the first sentence—
" I suppose the persons who call me a n
Atheist are the same who are impudently asserting
that Mr. GLADSTONE is a Roman Catholic." But
Mr. GLADSTONE has done what Mr. MILL has not
done, he has repudiated the assertion—he has given
it a flat contradiction. Here is Mr. MILL'S second
sentence—" I should think my friends in Westmin-
ster must by this time be aware that Tories in
Election times stick at nothing." Now, Tories
in this instance, hal nothing whatever -to
do with it. Mr. MILL'S correspondent, his
own canvasser—(and surely as rational men
Mr. MILL'S canvassers don't waste their time by
calling on 'Tory voters in the hope of winning their
support ?) —Mr. MILL'S own correspondent and can-
vasser has just informed him in the very letter the
philosopher is answering, that he (the canvasser) has
met several refusals to vote for Mr. MILL, "on ac-
count (as the voter says) of your being an Atheist !"
Otherwise—could the canvasser but authoritatively
assure the voter that Mr. MILL is not an Atheist,
he (the elector) would vote for him ! Clearly, there-
fore, not a Tory ! And, by consequence, quite as
clearly also—that Mr. MILL is shamefully mis-stating
the case when he talks iu that second sentence about
the " Zories sticking at nothing !" Now for the third
sentence, however, in this astounding communication.
"An attempt was made," says Mr. MILL, "to raise
the same cry against inc at my first election, and the
defence which I did not choose to make for ruyse'f
was made for me by several eminent dignitaries of the
Church of England." What was that defence, by
the way ? Let us have it. Surely it is worth publish-
ing over again. Was it of more. value, we wonder,
as affecting the root of the one question in-
volved in all this—was it of one atom more
value than that letter the other day penned
in favour of Mr. MILL by the Very Reverend
the Dean of WESTMINSTER ? A most philosophic
intellect, a wonderful logician, the clearest mind—and
all that sort of thing. But not a syllable about any
principles of religious belief whatever—which
at the very same time is precisely the matter in
question. However, let us hear Mr. MILL'S
fourth sentence, which runs to this effect:—
"At that time"—remember he is referring to
the period of the last General Election —" At that
time 1 declared”—what ? Ile was charged then, as
he himself says —exactly as he is charged now—with
being an Atheist ! " I declared," he says, "my de-
liberate determination ou principle (!) not to answer
any questions whatever respecting my religious creed,
because I acknowledge no right in any one to ask them,
and because I owe it to future candidates, and to
the interest of future constituencies, not to en-
courage a practice the effect of which would be that
when no objection can be found to a candidate's cha-
racter or political opinions, attempts would be made
to extract from himself materials for raising a re-
ligious prejudice against him, which is often easiest
stirred up—[hear this, I'udicitia !]—against the best
men" (Meaning me, Sir). " I think," says Mr.
MILL now (in the November of 1868) "I think I
shall act most rightly, and most in conformity with
my principles by adhering to this declaration." The
next sentence is really admirable as a put off —" If
any one again tells you," writes Mr. MILL to his
correspondent and canvasser, " that I am an Atheist,
I would advise you to ask him how he knows, and
in what page of my numerous writings he finds any-
thing to bear out -the assertion ?" It is, for all the
world, like the red-faced man in the " Sketches
by Boa" Mr. CHARLES DICKENS'S " Parlour
Orator." " What I say is, prove it, Sir !" Mr. MILL,
as the last known specimen of the red-faced
man (and it may be a question as to
whether or not he has cause at the
moment for blushing) is so perfectly well satisfied
with his imposing poser—with his reference, that is,
of so many necessarily illiterate electors to his own
voluminous, and most of them profound, lucubra-
tions, to the end that, on reading them, he should
therefrom " Prove it, sir !" that he adds, with a sort
of simpering complacency, " You will find he has
nothing at all to say." Adding, by way of conclusion,
"If he talks about my subscription for Mr. BRAD-
LAUGH, he should be asked whether he thinks that
the working men of Northampton, who have
adopted Mr. BRADLAUGH as their candidate, cr
the members of the Reform. League who
elected him one of their council, are all Atheists ?',
And that is all ! Mr. MILL is charged with being
an Atheist, and that, Great Heaven, is his answer to
the el'ar6e ! Why, a reply like that one can only
be read with a feeling of abhorrence. The whole
thing amounts simply to this—the letter is an elabo-
rate evasion. Au ordinary man—not a wonderful man
like this, not a man like Mr. MILL, a great logician,
a great thinker, a great author, a great statesman, a
great philosopher, but an ordinary man, one of your
average men, a man of parts, of education, of intellect,
such as it is—in a word, a man like the general run of
the candidates now before the country—would have
regarded a charge like this as an outrage of the gros-
sest description, and would have answered it and
repudiated it accordingly. Not so Mr. MILL, whose
reply in regard to it, whose disgraceful reply in re-
gard to it, as we conceive, is only another and a crown-
ing insult to the whole body of the Electors of the
City of Westminster.

Mn. BRIGHT occupied a curious position on Tues-
day night. He, a member of the Peace Society, had
to address a meeting of the gun trade. If he had
been called upon to address a meeting of under-
takers he could scarcely have been more awkwardly
situated. He could not wish his audience a busy
time. He would as soon think of expressing
a hope that there might be a brisk demand
for coffins as anticipate with satisfaction a large demand
for rifles. Nevertheless, he extricated himself from
his position with his usual ingenuity. Assuming
that the gun trade would continue, he told his gun-
making constituents that they ought to have the
