Faeraot Voting In England.
t Fleetwood, Eng., Chronicle, Oct. I, 1883.]
An extraordinary cage of fnggot-voting
came to light in the Revision Court at Ox
ford laat week. Rev. Waehbourno West,
bursar of Llncolu Colcge, claimed a vote
for *he city. Objection wag taten to the
claim on the ground that the reverend gen
tleman did not occupy the houae which con
ferred the franchise. Ai, however, Mr.
West stated that he owned the house and
had used It during the year, the ob)-ctlou
was overruled. But the Interest in the
claimant did not rest on the Immediate
cause
of his appearance in tlic
Revision Court. Mr. West is a remark
•bl« person, apart from Oxford, al
together It appears that he enjoys
the distinction • f being "one of the
largest faggot-voters in England."
Not only Is he qualified to vote In numerous
constituencies but he spends much time and
oney in exercising the privilege. It
admitted that be had voted 17 times a
last general election, and then was obliged
to miss seven places In which he was en
titled to perform the same operation. Alto
gether Mr. West owns no fewer than 94
votes. Indeed, he claims to be represented
In the House of Commous by as many as 64
memberaof Parliament. Groes as this abuse
of the electoral franchise ie, it It difficult to
see how it can be avoided so long as the
suffrage Is not residential. Let us hope,
however, that the new Reform bill will put
an end to the proceedings of active and indus
trious geutlemen like Mr. Washbourne
West.
A Man With an Ancastry.
[St. James Uasette. ]
The claim of a Hebrew gentleman to be
exempted from aervlog on a Coroner's Jury
on the ground of bln being a descendant of
Aaron, the High Priest, and forbidden in
that character to approach a dead body,
seems a strange one to advance, aud so
many years have passed since Aaron's death
that the 1'act of being directly descended
from hiui must in the present day be diffl
to establish. In England It is considered a
great thing to be able io trace back to a
man who "came over with the Conqueror.''
In France a nobleman Is more than satisfied
If he can prove that any one of bis forefathers
took part in the Crusade«. What, however,
in point of antiquity, is the first Crusade ?
What is the Invasion of England by the Nor
mans compared with such
escape of the Israelites from Egypt and the
giving out of the law in tho wilderness?—
for these, and especially the latter, are the
historic performances with which the ances
tors of Mr. Lewis David Cohen, the gentle
man who refuses to "enfer unto a corpse" is
associated. Mr. Cohen had been five times
fined, when he at last appealed to the Magis
trates at Quarter Sessions, who, after hear
ing his evidence and receiving the written
testimony of the rabbi as to tho Aaron c
descent, has ordered the rem ssion ot the

Utlea druggists to use Hunt's Remedy, us he
had sold a good deal of It to many of our leading

that my reoovery will induce some sufierer to do
as I did, "use the great speclflo and bo oured."
For nearly a whole yoar 1 was an invalld.unable
to g» out of the house, and a great part of tho
time confined to my bed, a living, powerless

I became weak irom the loss of strength, with
a lack ol vitality, and very much reduced In
flesh. All this time I was taking various mi dl
clnos, and under the oare of onr family doctor,
and not receiving a particle ot help. 1 had al
most despaired ol getting well when my atten

in my family. 1 commenced taking it(unknown
to the doctor) with but little hopes ol relief.
This non-belief was soon dispelled, however, as
1 daily begun to Improve. 1 continued tho use
or Hunt's Rcmedy(and to mako a long story
short), used eight bottles, disposed with tho

aud tny own great satisfaction, became as well
as ever. All pains and achos vanished, appe
