Jumbo; of no good, and capable of ro
harm. Ii that be his view, he might
have spared the House the trouble OF
appointing a committee. He might also
have spared his par y the raproach OF
championing an atheist.
The reproach, and many other eauallv
foolish reproaches, come from the Daily
Telegraph, whom the Pail Mall Gazette
rebuked sharply for its "curious base
ness'' in attempting to charge irreligion
and Malthusianisms upon an administra-
ton containing three of the most devout
men in England. The three most devout
men are Mr.. Gladstone, Lord Selborhe
and Mr.. Bright. Whether they are more
devout than their colleagues | will not
presume to say. But absurd as is the
accusation directed against the party and
the Government, there can be no doubt
that the Bradlaugh business has brought
serious distress of mind to many worthy
N0ncenformists. .--s
Mr.. Bradlaugh's friends now give out
that he does not care for the role of mar
tyr and will take the oath. He has
played martyr long enough to want
something fresh. For many wears he has
fought for a seat for Northampton.
Thanks to Mr.. Labouchere, he has at last
been elected. Whether he has or has
not conscientious scruples against TAX
ing the oath Of allegiance, may be a ques-
ton. That he is ready to affirm his al
legiance to Her Majesty seems to be ar
gued on all hands. 1t is not his repub'
licanism, but his atheism which stands
in the way Of his entrance to st. Ste
phen's. .....

The Question Of His Politics and
His Taking tho oath.
[Smalley's Letter in N. Y. Tribune.1

[smalley's Letter in N. Y. Tribune.1
As for Mr.. Bradlaugh's republican
ism, it seems to be Of O modern type. 1t
is, if not Laodicean, Parliamentary. |
remember saying some years ago that
people were asking why Mr.. Bradlaugh
did not hang out his republican flag at
election time. His answer was that he
did hang it out. I shall be curious
to zee what form and color it takes when
he GENES to swear allegiance to the Sow
ereign, as he must do on taking his seat.
He must take the oath or refuse it. If
he affirmed, the obligation would be the
same.
presume he satisfies his conscience by
the reflection that the title Of the Sow
ereign is a Parliamentary title, and that
when he swears to bear true faith to
Her Majesty this pledge is compatible
with the intention to use every effort
within the law to upset the throne he
agrees to support. He may be able to
persuade his colleagues to vote the
Brunswickers back into Germany before
the session ends. He will be strictly
within his right in trying to do SO. None
the less do wait with interest for the
first motion or resolution, or even speech

Gated by MFR. Bradlaugh,
I understand Mr.. Bradlaugh's friends
to say now that, as matter of taste, he
would rather not take an oath which
seems to imply recognition of the exist
ence of the Deity, or Of Deity. But
he has a duty to his constituents. Sooner
than allow the sheemakers of Northamp
ton to be deprived Of his services a
their representative, he will accept, or a
any rate utter, the formula $50 help mi
God" When he pronounces the words
he will pronounce them as meaningless

The manager led the chorus music, an

citation of the ludicrous is the
happy birthright of some fortu-
nate people, but there are these
who never see joke quickly and
who cannot comprehend why 1t
makes others laugh, even after 1t
has been duly explained. Ii as
the proyerb says, laughter is
medicinal they are much to be
pitied. They are not cushioned
against the sharp corners and
hard knocks OF life. There is
coarse wit which is allied to but
foonery, and many descend to
indelicacy, and the less we have
of that the better. The bright
ness and buoyancy which makes
the dull day cheerful, which lift
the wearied and the i'll from their
depression, and which impart
courage when disaster seems I'M
minent, are priceless gifts. The

how much worse misfortune

said that. "The joyousaess OF a

the nimbus was much used as a
substitute fot the latter, and was
sold in the shops for this pur-
pose.
The tradition of ..'good luck,
as embodied in the horseshoe
theory, may thus be easily traced
since it became a common occur

lief in charms and symbols to
adopt the horseshoe worn to

other, which be nailed over his
