LADY WARWICK'S JEWELS.
It was announced the other day (says the London correspondent of the Aigus) that Lady Warwick had sold all her jewels in order to provide funds for the socialist cause; at the last genera) election. In reply to questions on that subject, Lady Warwick says that her letter, from which the above news was taken, was personal to the gentleman to whom she sent it—Mr Willshire. It was not intended for the press; but it is a fact that she has net a single personal jewel left. She fail to see what concern that is of anvonbut herself. Her contribution," binadds, was but a drop in the ocean oi' lory and Liberal gold poured out at the election. "The socialist cause," says Lady Warwick, "is not affected by any individual. Nothing can stem the flowing tide, and the world's regeneration." The officials of the Independent Labour party declare that in not one single instance did a penny oi Lady Warwick's money go to any of their candidates, or to the assistance of any candidates whose elections were promoted by the trades unions. I hose officials insinuate that the price of the lady's jewels must have gone to Mr Hyndman's Social Democratic l'oderatiott.
