The British House of Lords.


People are so much accustomed to de-
scribe the British house of lords as
body of hereditary legislators, that it
may doubtless prove a surprise to quite
a number of my readers to learn that
some two hundred out of the FIVE hun
dred and odd members of the upper
chamber of the national legislature owe
their presence there to causes other than
direct hereditary descent.
1t is doubtful whether there are more
than three hundred and twenty peers
who have Inherited a right to sit in the
house of lords. and of these quite a
number are debarred from voting by the
fact that they are minors or undis-
charged bankrupts; some, too, are under
restraint In lunatic asylums, as for In
