It Has Been Officially Announced By The ...
It has been officially announced by the Liberal journals that Mr . J ohn Bright and Mr . W . E . Forster have resigned their membership of the Reform Club . It appears that the two right honourable gentlemen had joined Mr . Wentworth Beaumont in a requisition to the committee , proposing , in accordance with the one rules month of the but Club when , an the American ballot was gentleman taken the as candidate a member was for black-balled ; whereupon Messrs . Bright and Forster took their names off the , Club . It is at the same time statedthat the matter will not be allowed to restbut that the affair wi , ll be submitted to the decision of a general , meeting . Highly interesting as any proceeding of Mr . Bright must necessarily be to a large class of the community , nevertheless , it seems to us a little strange that the private proceedings within the four walls of a London Club House , which is essentially a private institution , should be magnified into large type paragraphs for the newspapers . The custom , however , of giving to the world such items as these of the doings of great people is , we are sorry to observe , fast gaining ground , and if it is allowed to proceed unchecked , we shall soon be reading some such announcements as the following in the leading journals — Mr . Gladstone . —We are able to announce that the right honourable gentleman contemplates re-decorating the drawing-rooms of his mansion in Carlton Terrace . The ceilings of the upper bed-rooms have lately been whitewashed . The ordered Duke of upwards Cambridge of a hundred . —His Roy boxe s of ci hness gars from has just his tobacconist in ordinary . It is fully believed that this supply will last his Royal Highness for some weeks . Mr . Disraeli . —According to the latest advices from Park Lane
