The Coming Crom,xeII.

Charles Bradaugh, the leader of the
English Radical Republicans. has divul-
ged to a World correspondent the plans
and expectations of his party. Brad
laugh fully expects to be President Of
the British Republic in 1876. He states
that he is only afraid the crisis will come
too sOon-that he is strong enough to
pull down the monarchy, but not strong
enough to erect on its ruins a republic.
According to Bradlaugh, there are two
great movements of which he is the head
-one is the republican movement, the
other the free thought, secular or infidel
movement. The infdels are not all re-
publicans, however There are now in
Great Britain sixty eight avowed repub-
lican clubs, with an aggregate member
ship of 10000 men, and it is estimated
that there are 75,0 900 ardent republicans
in the kingdom outside of the infdel
republicans. There is no central organ
ization to govern these associations, but
Bradlaugh seems to be held as the lead.
er. The republican strength is made up
Of artisans mainly, and almost wholly in
towns, as nothing can be done with the
agricultural class" BradIaugh, howev-
asserts that the farmers will make no
trouble when the revolution comes. He
hopes that the revolution may not come
until 1876, but says it may be precipita-
ted at any moment-by the death of the
Queen, for instance, or by her being off
eially declared incapable of longer exer-
cising her duties by reason OF mental
alienation. The republicans will not
permit regency; they will have none of
the dissolute, spendthrift line of princes
TO rule them. The republic must be
proclaimed. The revolution need not be
a violent one. Parliament is all power
full. What one Parliament has done au-
other may undo. The reigning family
holds the throne, not by what is called
.'divine right" but by virtue Of an act
of Parliament. Parliament may repeal
this act, and the republic be set up peacea
bly, but should it not, it will be attain
ed through .sbloodshed
