"Reform the House OF Lords.-'

sReform the House Of Lords"
The progress OF the Supreme Court OF Jurisdic-
tion bill through Parliament excites vast deal Of
attentian In Great Britain. as the measure is re-
Rarded as nrst attempt on the part Of the Crown
and Cabinet to denude the Peers Of large portion
of their legislative power. The measure was de-
bated with great animation in the House OF Com
mons on the motion TO 90 into committee.
Mr. Gladstone stated that the government had
determined TO accept an amendment py Mr.. Bou-
vsrie transferring the appelats jurisdiction OF the
House OF Lords, IN cases from Ireland and Scot
land, as well as In England, 70 the Supreme Court
Of Appeal; and they would bring up clauses 10
carry these changes into effect
Mr.. Bouverie expressed mis- grstihcation at the
concession OF tue government, and DR.. BAH claimed
that Ireland and Scotandsshould be represented in
the new tribunal.
MIR. Disraen considered 1t inconvenient that the
House should be as'ked to decide upon important
matters after O bill had gone through committee,
and suggested that the debate should be adjourned
until the amendm ents had been put on the paper.
The Attorney General objected to the postpone
mept.
Mr.. Bourke oontended that It would be a fatal
error to abolish the appellate Jurisdiction Of the
House OF Lords.
Mr. Vernon Harcourt could not understand how
the House, could deal with the clauses OF the bill
until th1f knew the nature OF the proposals IN re-
ggsrd to Ireland and Scotland. he criticised the
whole bill, the eject Of which, he predicted, woud
!, be to have the law OF England setted BY tnfee

THE HEAT.

The Third Hottest Day OF the Season.
1t was very fortunate that we had breeze yes
terday, else tired nature would have certainly
given way. 1t is certainly true that on the whole
we have had 1t mild but when 1t does come it
takes sweet vengeance for letting us on so easy
On Monday the Thermometer registered s5 degrees,
and yesterday, in spite OF the breeze which pre-
vailed, it went up to 81 degrees, o figure which
made Manhattan swelter and sweat. The heat, in
fact, only did one good thing-that is, furnishing
q subject FOR conversation for those who never
have anything to say. For the unfortunate portion
of the population which had TO work physically the
day was indeed, q terrible one, and it seems q
great wonder that more casualties did not occur.
However, II the thermometer should continue in
the high regions we SHALL no doubt, have plenty OF
them soon. Let US pray however, that IL may
moderate.
