      Mr. Gladstone Was Observed The Other Day...

      Mr . Gladstone was observed the other day to make a rush at Mr . Disraeli in Downing street with the unparliamentary observation , " I'll have your hat . " The Premier superciliously replied , "Go to Greenwich ! " but has since been heard to characterise Mr . Gladstone ' s behaviour as " rather a [ Bright idea . "

      At The Mansion House, Mr. Disraeli Spoke...

      At the Mansion House , Mr . Disraeli spoke with the utmost assurance of his being Prime Minister on next Lord Mayor ' s day . At the Admiralty and the War Office no steps have yet been taken to prepare the estimates for the ensuing year , which at this period are usually two months advanced in preparation .

      It seems clear , therefore , that , however highly Mr . Disraeli estimates his chance , he is not prepared to chance'his estimates .

      A Number Of Unknown Young Men Have Been ...

      A number of unknown young men have been invited to Compiegne on purpose to dance with the frisky matrons of the Imperial Court .

      enough ~ to make any one votefor a representation of minorities . To her eternal disgrace as a body of educated and rational human beings , Oxford has rejected Sir Roundell Palmer for Mr . Mowbray . One feels it a positive disgrace to be the son of an " Alma Mater " who can deliberately prefer to be

      represented by a mere nonentity , because he is weak enough to echo the parrot cry of nervous old women , rather than by a man of the very highest political and moral character , one of her most distinguished sons , and one whose whole career in life has been a spotless course of triumph . The clergy must wish to bring themselves and the Church into contempt by such a choice . Their success is perfect .
