There have been occasions, or, at least, one occasion, when the President's message was printed in a newspaper before the day of its delivery to Congress, but the fault did not lie in the Government printing office. When the original copy is received there it is cut up into very small "takes," or sections, only one to each compositor, and he puts it into type with an inspector standing alongside his case. The Government printing office has not yet introduced typesetting machines, and the composition is ail done by hand in the old-fashioned way. When the forms are put on the press a guard stands by each machine and watches it so closely that not a single sheet could be abstracted.

Pooh! Look Here, Says Labouchere. i vfc "Progrers is revolution in disguise ,se and by degrees," a well known tory t0 has recently said, "it is destined to make the peers powerless and the -jj poor prosperous." The description K will remind many of the phrase utterhe ed by Cromwell: "There will never ug be a good time in England till we ild have done with the lords." It ; What is the value of our peerage la- of today? Lord Beaconsfield answerer ed the question in "Coningsby" many m years ago: nd " 'Ancient lienage,' said Mr. Millit bank; T never heard of a peer with of an ancient lineage. T^he real old . all families of this country are to be ul found among the peasantry; the gentt0 ry, too, may lay some claim to old 1 ;n4 blood. I can point you out Saxon bs families in this country who can -w crace their pedigrees beyond the con- . i quest; I know of some Norman gentlemen whos fathers undoubtedly came over with the conqueror. But a peer with an ancient lienage is to me quite a novelty. No, no; the thlrj ty years' war of the roses freed us j from those gentlemen.- I take it after ! the battle of Tewkesbury, a Norman j baron wa3 almost as rare a being in j England as a wolf is now.' ; " T have always understood/ said >, !

Of thosfe 29 -j not five remain; and, as the Howards, for instance, are not Norman nobility. We owe the English peerage to three 4 sources?the spoilation of the church, the open and flagrant sale of honora by the elder Stuarts and the boroughmongering of our own times. Those are the three main sources of the ex- 'J lsting peerage of England, and, la | my opinion, disgraceful ones."* | Lord Beacons field , might have added a fourth origin of the existing peer' age, to wit, the bestowal of honoze upon the mistresses of the kings and their illegitimate children.
