Dr.Clifford, the eminent Nonconformist divine, hopes they will be drowned in the Red Sea, like Pharoah; while Mr.Byles.founder of the Bradford \u2018Observer, and member of parliament for North Salford, declares, \u2018 We have got \u2018the Lords by the throats and are \u2018going to strangle them.\u2019 It is evident that while the English may'dearly love a lord as an individual, they have been saving up a first-class lot of bitter feeling against him collectively.If that is so in England, it is much more so, it would seem, in Ireland.Says Mr.Redmond, speaking to a big audience in Dublin :\u2014' It \u2018this budget were dead, what would \u2018happen ?A Tory Government would \u2018have to raise the money required, \u2018and in doing that they would not \u2018give exemption to Ireland.This is \u2018the first time the Irish party has \u2018got an.opportunity\u2014that they had \u2018prayed and striven for\u2014of dealing a \u2018deadly blow at the House of Lords, \u2018which has been the traditional ene- \u2018my of the Irish people, which has \u2018driven the Irish people into emigra- \u2018tion, and which Las plunged the \u2018 country into a hell of turmoil by thus \u2018wrecking the Budget.\u2019 This extreme language everywhere \u2014 which -we need not endorse\u2014will give some idea of the swarm of hornets the House of Lords has brought upon itself.\u2018Whom the gods wish to destroy they first make mad\u2019 says the old Latin proverb.The Lords were so led astray by a purchased press that they seam to have verily believed that the people- would vote for them and their privileges against an emancipating budget.We shall,\u201d however, still have to read special cablegrams of all sorts devoted to the theory that the very life of England depends on protection and on the Lords.\u2014anrnteanee The United States has pract'ca\u2019ly declared war on Nicaragua.Marines have already landed and ships are on the way.fully manned and armed, for the purpose.of feizing Corinto, the.Pacific coast port of the ; whence the troops wil bé Dushéd for ward to seize the capital, Managua, and the offending President, Zelaya.It will be remembered that a sort of lttte civil war Las been in progress in Nicaragua\u2014a quite ordinary custom there\u2014and that two Americans\u2019 caught under arms\u2014to wit, using\u2019 bombs upon ships on behalf of the rebels, or, au we would say, the Opposition, were shot forthwith, on the orders.of the President.Upon this the United States demanded reparation, but Ze- jaya: replied that foreigners attempting to blow up the ships of the republic when no state of recognized war Existed ougkt to be shot, and to the United States bullying has metaphorically put his thumb to his nose and \u2018made what the Artful Dodger in \u2018Oliver Twist\u2019 describes as a \u2018Cart- contempt and ridicule.This made Secretary Knox very angry.He denounced Zelaya in the most scathing terms, he gave his passports to Senor Rodriguts, the Nicaraguan charge d'affaires, and now a navy and an arthy âre on the war path to support the revolutionary government.and \u2018prevent Zelaya from Fanding over the reins of power to any of his \u2018creatures.As for Zelaya himself, every \u2018effort 1s to be made to prevent his escape, and when captured it is propos- 6d to punish him.The kind of pun- | ishment 1s not yet decided upon, but\u2019 perhaps it will - be something with \u201cboiling off in it, as the Mikade pro- miséd his peculating Lord High Chancellor.like, the job.of neighbors.: spanking .its little PEER, BEER & CO.The \u2018iñtiimate connection of the Peers and \u2018The Trade\u2019 was strikingly demonstrated by the fact that \u2018bn the heels; as it were, of Lord Lans- downe\u2019s amendment, the announcement was made by the brewers that the price of beer wduld be reduced.\u201d This course was decided on at a meeting of London brdwers held at Brewers\u2019 Hall, when it was also resolved that the price of beer to the publicans should be redueed to the normal level.This is an unblushing catch, of course, an electioneering bgit, Intérided to demonstrate to the publicans and thetr customers that it is the Lords that give cheap beer to the workingman.Such a dodge as this however, will not be nedtly as potent to-Gay sa it might 4nd PfebAbly would have been a.féw.\u2018ing the debate in which so Many not- coufitry;

DREAM.After the abrogitioh by the United States of the reciprocity treaty with Canada there were societies and newspapers in Montreal and Toronto advocating annexation.This extraordinary statement was made in a remarkably fine speech by Mr.Hemming before the Manufacturing Jewellers\u2019 Association.\u2018 It might be possible to let such à statement pass, had it not, through repetition and accretion, became a cyrnént myth, diligently propagated and unconsciously added to.Over and over again those who wished to renew reciprocity with' the United States were, by the beneñ- claries of protection, denounced as annexationists, a statement which those who made it knew to have its only foundation in Their own gratuitous theories as to £he ultimate effect of reciprooity.\u2018and -which at the time they also knd¥ Je he, in so tar as the sentiments of: these they sought\u2019 to.stigmatize\u2019.wrk\" Goqosrned, to be \u2018false.But here \u2018for the first tims we -have the statement: in.concrete form that thera were Soclaties and newspapers in Montreal and Toronto advocating annexation.If there were societies of thé sort, Mr.Hem- inihæ's informant must have had advantages ôf knowing'of them that the public had not.But it would be edi- tying, indeed, to learn what newy- papers in Montreal or Toronts advocated annexation.We never knew but one voice raised In either city on That voice belonged to no particular era, but has kept shouting continentalism from the time we began to hear it till now.We are not finding fault with any who may have, or may have bad, en- pexation views.We simply say that thers was not suck a sentiment in Montreal or Toronto that amounted to anything whatever.If, there was some of it in Nova Scotia, it is to be remembered that that province was united, against her will, with the Do- minfon, and that she thereby adopted a higher tariff than the free trade later, not for her benefit, whose life was almost exclusively in agriculture, fisheries and commerce, but at the demand of manufacturers in Ontario and Quebec, that tariff was crushingly increased = There wis orice, indeed, an\u2019 annexation movement: In Montreal.It was \u201can outbyesk of \u201ctHe British Conservatives.It .was not due to the fact of the \u2018loss of a reciprocity treaty but .to tke adeptien by | \u201cGreat Britain.of free trade by which |'Drssio Canada lost the Speaisl privileges she had in the British Market \u2018Why should We rémaih fn the empire\u2019 sald these loyalists, \u2018and not get Advan- \u2018tages over.other, counties trading \u2018with Great Britain?The recipro- \u201ccity treaty was sought by Lord Bigin as a cure for this annexation feeling, and it did gyre it wô.effectively that when the reciprocity.treaty was denounced by tke United States the reu- son was that Canada~\u2014still these sams \u201cConservatives\u2014hud best\" the y of the United Btates-guritig tke wer.That was hot à true chadé &s Canada sent more soldiers to aid ths North than \u2018she sent to Africa &nd alt the papers of lafger circulation -mdvoeated the Northern cause = !

LONDON LETTER (Correspondence of the \u201cWitness.London, Nov.26.There is only one possible subject this wsek; the debate now proceeding in the House of Lords covers the newspaper sheets and engrosses the public mind from day to day.The number of peers desiring to speak is so great that the discussion is to be prolonged til next Tuesday Instead of concluding to-day.Let me give some little idea of the speeches so far.The gilded but usually empty chamber is tilled to overflowing from day to day.Never since the great Home Rule debate, sixteen years ago, has the attendance been so large.The supporters of the Government are described as forming \u2018a little island of men\u2019 engulfed in the vast crowd from all over the country, who usually know the precincts of the House of Lords pa little as they themselves are known 0 the public.The steps of the throne are packed with listeners\u2014Cabinet ministers and other members of the Commons who as Privy Councillors have a right to be there.The galleries are packed with dark-clad men,\" and prettily fringed with well-dressed women.The Diplomatic gallery includes among the foreign visitors the young King of Portugal.~ Lord Lansdowne is not a large man in any sense, and as he moved the amendment rejecting the Finance Bill, one was reminded by way of contrast, of the burly form and bluff massive arguments of his predecessor, the late Lord Salisbury.Whether his action has been forced by his followers or not, they showed great delight at his hits.He argued the question which has been argued every day of the de- bate-\u2014is the action of the Lords con- urging his party to rise to the situation and face the responsibility.\u2018The.worst and { most damaging thing you: couté do,\" he concluded, \u2018would be to face-ttiose who look to you as the guardians of their constitutional rights:\u2019 ie, the Lords are simply insisting on the people having the final voice as to the fate of the Budget.The Lord Chancellor followed.His contention was that the rejection of the Budget on their part was legal, but was not constitutional.\u2018My lords, it is a step towards a constitutional revolution\u2019 And this view has recelved impressive emphasis throughout the debate from the men of most weight in the House of Lords.Lord Cromer, next day, representing the Free Trade Unionists, was popular on neither side,.but his finger was at once on the real problem of \u2018the debate.\u2018The question is not whether the Budget is good, bad or indifférent, but whether we _are justified in sending it back to the country.\u2019 On that point he opposed Lord Lansdowne, \u2018but a8 a vote against the amendment would be construed as a vote for the measure, 1 am reluctantly compelled not to vote at all\u2019 The speech of the third day's debate was Lord Rosebery's, and he followed in Lord Cromer's wake with an even more impressive warning.Without abating one jot of his antipathy to the Budget\u2014I quite agree that the Budget is likely to poison tte very sources of our national supremacy\u2019\u2014he argued very frankly the disadvantages of the Lords.\u2018You are aware that the hereditary character of this House does lend itself to effective satire and.criticism when it comes before the people.I confess I do apprehend the results of an appeal to the country on an unreforfned hereditary chamber mixed; up with the promises of the Budget.I doubt whether you are choosing -the best battlefield.\" He ended, T should wish the House of Lorde to pass the Bill, not because I have a good opinion of it, but because I have such an excessively bad opinion of it.I am sorry with all my heart that I cannot vote against .the Budget, but I do not wish to see the Second Chamber risked in all the varied and tumultuous influences of & general - election.\u2019 - The real hereditary peer was per- Laps not badly represénted by the re- \u2018narkable speech of the young Duke of Marlborough\u2014a speech

\u2018some semblancé of that santtity which time: alone can give.\u2019 The government were prepared to lay irreverent hands on a political fabric that was the admiration of the civilized world.Was that magnificent monument, - that.unique expression of the genius of our people, to be shattered at the bidding of a demagogue from Wales?The bishops have not been present In full force.Perhaps some

the sense of the gravity of the issues at stake.Lord Rose- bery\u2019s opening words will arrest attention even from those who do not follow his lead, as the words of an exprime minister and a Than of long political experience: \u2018I am oppressed with the awful gravity of tre situa- tion\u2014by far the gravest in my life- time\u2014the gravest since 1832.That gravity will have been increased by the division that will end this debate before these words- reach the reader.: \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE HOUSE OF LORDS.\\ The Tory Party Also Wishes to Reform It (From the \u2018Canada.\u2019) The Liberal press of England, Scotland and Ireland is unanimous in declaring that by adopting the Lans- downe motion rejecting the budget, the House of Lords committed suicide.It is useless to assert that the Liberal party is quite decided, if it returns to power, to remodel on a new basis, the House of Lords\u2014the second chamber\u2014 and more especially to deprive It of the power to meddle with questions of finance and taxation.It is therefore evident that, in the event\u2014which is the most probable\u2014-of a Liberal victory at the January general elections, the House of Lords will find itself deprived of some of its remaining prerogatives.But, in the very improbable event of a Unionist victory it seems that the House of Lords wiil equally run the risk of being reformed.The Montreal \u2018Btar\u2019s\u2019 special London correspondent, who seems to have the ear of the Unionist leaders, andl whose correspondence at lease ig fMmbued with the purest jingo toryism, on Thursday last telegraphed to our confrere the following astonishing piece of news: \u2014 \u2018Whatever else happens, the electorate will not abolish the second chamber.What is much more lkely to happen is the addition to the Unionist tariff reform programme of the meastirs for its reform, shedding those peers who are not serious legislators, adding the hei g's of the English free churches, and the Salvation Army.and in reasing the number of spokesmen of tha overseas Dominions and outlying parts of the Empire, such as India.\u2018The ITouse would then become one of the greatest dignity and importance; indeed this obvious fact makes the Uninnists hesitate, because even they would object to see the Commons overshadowed by an upper chamber embodying the beat brains and ripest experiences ¢f all the Empire.\u2019 - Thus the Tories themselves are /of opinion that the House of Lords should be reformed; that the hereditary peers should be eliminated therefrom, an:l that it should be made a sort of Senate, including the leading figures in religion, literature and society throughout the United Kingdom and thc cclonies.This would certainly be the end of the House of Lords, as it exists since Magna Charta, based on heredity, large real estate and great wealth.If, by their inconsiderate \u2018coup de tete\u2019 of Tuesday last, the Lords had not opened the-door far such a reform, it is probable that their charmber would have been able tu live for another generation with lis present constitution, while now une party wants to abolisn it, and the othor reform it.Tac party of dukes is now going from Charybdis to Seylla.® - That is certainly the suicide of the House of Lords.{rte THE CALL OF CANADA.The Rev.J.A.Macdonald\u2019s Appeal to Young Canadians.Catiäda\u2019s Call to Christian Men was the subject of an eloquent address to the young men of the Y.M.C.A.yet- terday aftérnoon by the Rev.J.A.Macdonald, LL.D.editor of the Toronto \u2018Globe.\u2019 Speaking to the young Canadians he said, I would have you believe in the religious intérest of the nation just as the Jews of Old did.The pious Jew .swore that awful imprecation, \u2018Let my right hand forget her cunning if 1 forget thee, O Jerusalem, and let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.\u2019 If the inhabitant of a little country between the

fact to be.remembered is that the perils which beset democracy in this country make this call to-men who believe urgent beyond all other calls.These dangers are many and imminent.The vernment of the people by the people for the people is threatened by the materialistic s - ards and ideals of life.The very vastness of our country, but increase this peril.We are.accustomed to magnify our wealth

of a pri- | vate telegram from Ottawa was received on Saturday by Mr.À.Pani- neau Mathieu, counsel for John Dillon, to the effect that the condemned man's sentence had been commuted to imprisonment for life.This was not unexpected, as word was received on Friday that the alienists had reported Dillon as insane, but it marks the last phase of the long and persistent fight ror the prisoner's life that has been carried on for months in the local courts.The next, and probably final act in the career of the whilom book agent will be his removal to the place for the criminally -insane at Kingston, where it has been decided he shall spend the days that remain to him.Upwards of $20,00v have been spent altogether In the efforts of the Crown to secure Dillon's execution, and those | of his counsel to save him from the | hangman's rope.This included the | sending of two commissions to Great | Britain to make Inquiries as to Dil lon\u2019s family and antecedents, in order to decide as to nis sanity, with practically two trials, and many appearances in court for minor points which were fought out at various times.While no statement has yet been made as to the reason for this final decision by the Department of Justice, under whose advice the Gover- nor-General acts in such matters, it 18 evident that it was based upon the report sent by Dr.Phelan.of Kings- | ton.and Dr.Burgess, of the Verdun Asylum, who last week examined the condemned man.The examination took only a few hours, and the probability is that their report showed that Dil- |].lon was in np fit condition to death at the hangman's hands.WAS THIS HERBERT READ ?Bartender at Cafe Parisien Claims to Have Seen Missing Man.The first information that looks like a clue to the mystery of the disappear- encé of Herbert W.Read,

who answered Read's descrip- tiont, came in and telegraphed to the Canadian Express Company's Bullding on McGill street, to someone who was to meet him in half an hour.at Gravel's Hotel (the Cafe Parisien) on St.Catherine street.The most recent story has a sinister sound.It is to the effect that two ladies, the Misses Mitchells,\u201d of 476 Mount Pleasant avenue, a week ago Friday saw a man on Mount Royal Park, who answered Read's description, and \u2018according to the ladies, \u2018seemed to be doped.The problem of Read's disappearance is one of the mcst profound: that the detectives have to deal within Montreal for years.The absolute lack of a possible or probable motivé, makes the case a black mystery-of.the most baffiimg type.Distective Lapointe, of she Provin- clal force, is
