LONDON, January 1.-THE eventual fall
Of the House OF Lords is again foreshadoWed
in the announcement that the Government
contemplates introducing once more, at the
next session of Parliament, the black sheep
bill, the object of which is to keep out from
the Upper House those peers who are dis
credit to their order. The bill VIII differ from
others, in that it will invest Committee of
the House, consisting of Judicial peers and
certain lay peers, with power of penal disci-
pline over the House of Lords. The action
of the committee will be subject to confirm
alton or rejection bv the House itself, but if
the bill is literally construed upon lines
designated, the membership of the House of
of Lords will be materially decreased.
Even a hereditary House divided against
itself cannot stand.
The minds of English politicians and
traders are Just now occupied with guesses
as to what Mr.. Goschen will do with the
handsome surplus which the revival of
trade is putting into the treasury. The
amount Of this surplus may be anything be-
tween e3, 900, 900 and $4,000, 900, and Yari-
GUS trades are already laying themselves
out to get remission of taxes. There is
notion that the tax will be taken off from
tea entirely, and that income taxpayers will
receive some relief, and that provision may
be made for free education for the masses.
The Tory Government is threatened with
serious trouble over a matter which all
sensible people regard as trihing. The new
Minister of Agriculture, has renewed the
order for the muzzling of dogs in some
special places, and from the counties in
vicinity OF London. Tory dog owners have
howled and threaten to transfer their votes
10 the other side, unless the obnoxious order
is withdrawn. The agitation is such that
she Government is pretty certain to give
way, but as these restrictions were honestly
to stamp out hydrophobis, this
'esult will not reflect credit upon the
patriotism of the ordinary Tory.

ALL ENGLAND AFFECTED.
The Cleveland street scandal OvershadOws
the Whole of the Island.

rBY CABLE TO THE DIsPATCH1
LONDON, January 11-All England to-
day is under the shadow of the cloud that
the disgusting scandals in Cleveland street
have caused. The trial of Newton has
demonstrated this week that the hideous
rumors which have been circulating for sew
eral months past are not only founded on
fact but are almost short of the facts, and
that members of the first families of the
Kingdom are criminany implicated. But
the storm has not burst yet,
and until Parliament opens all
of the horrible details will not
be known. After that will be the deluge
1t is not pleasing to a country that prides
itself so much on its hereditary arIstocracy
to think of policemen waiting outside of the
most fashionable London clubs with the
boys who had been inmates of the Cleve-
land street den of infamy, to identify the
lords and gentlemen who had trequented
the place.
1t is not pleasing, either, to the lords and
gentlemen who belong to the best clubs, to
be compelled to watch from their windows
to ascertain if the coast is clear for exit, and
then not to venture to walk in Pail Mall or
Piccadilly, but to go around by way of un-
fashionable streets in cabs. Tremendous
efforts are still being made to avoid further
publicity in the matter, but nothing can
avail to prevent complete exposure now.
