" WIIAT NEXT ?" is the question which is nttito
on, ,
asked, since the House of Lords has given its sath„lstiOof
a bill for the demolition of the great educational
tion of the Church. If Oxford can be turned by jest
Parliament into Stinkomalee the Elder, where is Peeof,
lative pantomime to end? If the endowmenis i
crated to the training of youth in the principles log
and Jeremy Taylor, can be appropriated to the reaf,_,oll
disciples of Henry Garnett and Tom Paine, what o'c,
to be set to the transfer of property ? If the,„iotS
liberty,—" Liberty, Equality, Fraternity,"—is to be v.
on the top of the Maypole of "Reform" at thrlisilr
long will the cap of maintenance be supported at tfif
by the flagstaff of royalty ? If the spirit of the an Abs
in o
abetted throwim-; down the foundations of 'lo'
IJR,
is the meaning of a Conservative policy ? If the
siovie
rence between " Conservative" and " Radical', 9rvosp
that the Radical has no principle, and the Copse
upholds none, is it worth while to keep up an nni3l
distinction ?—John Bull.
POISONING OF ELEVEN PERSONS AT STR°I:I-
- last week unusual excitement was caused nje,
out Stroud, by the report that nearly a dozen Peffigero,;
been poisoned, and that several were lying in a a 7,0 VeJlj
state. It appears that, on Sunday mornings,_s°re,
were going along Summer-street carrying a E'avirilkricl
they were stopped by an old man named Joshua clou,„f
who made overtures for its purchase, and finallYdn_ itro
a bargain at 9d. The poor fellow proceeded to oot
dinner, and, when some neighbour happened Y„a itn
how far it was gone, he replied that gentlefolk lisivaei
and often ate it when quite rotten. Having I,ot;i
onions, pepper, &c., Joshua Wilkins roasted
little thinking how serious were to be the conNrell
upon himself and others. He ate his dinner wit cisoPle
gave some of his much-loved delicacy to his gran are
several of the neighbours were also allowed to se'eitri,
treat. In the afternoon Wilkins was taken sr N eS°Ao
and, after enduring great agony on Monday anu.
expired about two o'clock on Wednesday mornnteetv
other sufferers, about nine in number, are pru'
favourably,—Bristol Mirror,
