hampton made directly for the door. and
30 eager were tie crowd to hear and
see al that should occur, that the rush
nearly pushed him and the deputy
sergeants-at-arms within the sacred
precincts. Erskine, however, barred
the way and informed Bradlangh that
by the speakers orders he was obliged
to forbid him an entrance. A short
barley ensued in low tones; suddenly
Bradlaugh seized Erskine and attempted
to push him aside. Immediately he
was seized by the other deputies and
policemen and dragged across the lobby
toward the members entrance. He
struggled violently and a most painful
scene ensued. He was half pulled, half
showed through the door by sheer force,
and followed by hundreds Of the MEM
bers, mostly conservatives. Many of
them INDUCED in unbecoming jibes at q
scene which will be remembered with
pain and sorrow as long as the history
OF parliament is recalled to mind.
Down the broad stairway, struggling
with might and main all the way, at
the risk of breaking his own and his
captors' necks, the member from
Northampton was dragged through the
outer doors Of the palace yard, which
swung to, and Bradlaugh was released.
A number of delegates who had OBJ
tanned admission to the precincts, wit
messed the conclusion of this disgraceful
scene, and cries of 'sshamel shamel"
arose as the member was hurled through
the door. These men made a rush to
his aid, and umbrellas were brandished,
and the angry cries of the spectators
were taken up and re-echoed by thou
sands who were shut out Of the yard.
For a moment it seemed that a physical
contest with the police was about to
ensue, and had the struggle with Brad
laugh continued. the matter would
probably have ended in a riot.
When Bradlaugh, who stood within
the circle Of policemen like a stag at
bay, recovered somewhat his breath, he
said he would return with q force which
would compel his admission orhis arrest.
Inspector Derring m~ockingly asked,
''how many that would be?" to which
was replied, something less than a
million" Cheer after cheer was given
Bradlaugh by the people, which were
heartily repeated, and they teft the
precincts OF the house.

At a quarter to IL, sounds of distant
cheers made themselves family heard,
and murmurs ran through the crowd
Of assembled members Of parliament:
HE has come!n Almost Immediately
BradlauRh appeared, coming through
the entrance reserved for members. He
was pale and evidently suffering from
suppressed excitement. He was clothed
in black, which heightened the effect of
his palor, and it was frequently re-
marked, '.he looks like an animated
corpse"
Labouchere welcomed his colleague,
and took the opportunity of this short
delay before proceedings could begin,
to hold q consultation about the tactics
to be pursued. Rumor u through
the body that B~radlaugh meant to use
actual force to obtain an entrance and
resist any movement toward expulsion.
This heightened the interest, and when
the speaker passed to prayers, scarcely
n honorable member followed. AT
the door of the house stood two deputy
sergeant-at-arms, Erskine and Gosset,
ir, thanked on either side by policemen
picketed for great bodily strength. A
number Of athletic conservative men,
bers stood close to the door, only too
anxious to distinguish themselves as
volunteers in suppressing an atheist.

Of the commons has called forth a great
deal Of criticism upon the action of this
body. The Daily Necs has always
maintained, in accordance with the
opinion of Lord ~Selborne, law officers
Of the crown, the late attorney general,
and a majority Of prominent lawyers,
that the right claimed by the house of
commons is n which does not belong
to 1t, which 1t never exercised before,
and which, soone or later, If persisted
In, must bring it into serious conflict
with its constituents. Bradlaugh's

that he represents a principle of the

THE GERMAN IMMIGRANTs.
Dissatisfied with Their ReceptxO
At EdgemD0R.

A number of the German immigrants
who came here for the purpose OF going
to work at Edgemoor. as detailed III yes
ierday's GAZETTE, seem TO be dissatis-
fled with their reception by the owners
of Lhose works.
The dissatisfied ones returned to this
city last evening and called upon the
Mayor for protection. From what could
be learned from them it appears that
they were brought here under the stipu-
lations Of having steady work and that
homes would be provided for them. This
they say was not done. Work wa:
plenty, but on the other hand the food
furnished them was very meagre. Fol
dinner they received nothing but wateI
ana bread, and Furthermore the entire
about one hundred and sixty were
crowded into eight small houses.
The Mayor informed the party that he
could not do anything with their case
aud referred them to Austin Harring
ton, Secretary of the Society for thu
Prevention Of Cruelty to Children.
On the other hand, one OF the clerk
of the Edgemoor company states tina
they didn't expect SO many to arrive q
once and In consequence were totall,
unprepared for them. The compan!
were doing everything in their power u

When Mr.. William Mcmillan, one

saw the paper to press yesterday morn
ing, he lay down on the lounge in his
sanctum in Park row to take nap.
On awakening he found the building
in darkness, and, cropping his way to

secured the doors believing that all the
attaches of the paper had retired. A
wing of the building opens on Ann

enough to attract the attention of Jack
Gallagher, a pressman on the Aer-
cury, who was walking along the street.
He called for a rope, or ladder, or q

The ladder was procured after some
