The Shmspore de Marseilles of the 6th, in detailing news from Rome to the let inst., says that the Holy City was never more tranquil. Public con fidence is restored, and the people have completely recovered from the excitement occasioned by the discovery of the conspiracy of the retrograde party. The wise and loyal course pursued by the principal authorities, and particularly by Cardinal Fer retti and the temporary governor of Rome, Morandi, had removed all apprehensions. The Pope himself shares in the sentiments of the people, and openly confesses that he never ex perienced a more complete security than since the last trials, which elicited in so signal a manner the love of the Rowans for their sovereign. The service of the National Guard was admirably performed. Strangers were surprised at the progress made by the armed citizens in military manceuvres, which can only be accounted for by the patriotic zeal which animates them. The people, notwithstanding the assertion of Father Itoothan to the contrary, per sist in regarding the Jesuits as hostile to the liberal system inaugurated by Pius IX., and the holy father himself appears to concur in that opinion. On the 31st ult., the day of the festivity of St. Ignatius, the Pope was to Wave assistcd, according to usage, at a ceremony celebrated in the church of their con vent. To the great annoyance of the reverend fathers, and the satisfaction of the people, the holy father thought proper to depart from the established rule, and abstain. The proceedings against the conspira tors were conducted with activity. All classes of society in Rome are determined to support the Pope in the glorious mission he has undertaken. The nobility and people have given him sufficient proofs of their devotion. Now is the turn of the clergy. All the religious orders are anxious to contribute towards the institution of the National Guard, and to alleviate the burdens its organisation entails on the public. They have all subscribed considerable sums for that object. This conduct of the clergy deserves the greatest praise. It now remains to be seen whe ther the Jesuit., who possess immense wealth, will also subscribe." MEMBERS RETURNED. ARMAGH COUNTY. Verner and Canfield. No opposition. AYR BURGHS. Lord J. Stuart.

We yesterday gave reports of the harvest prospects from various parts of the United Kingdom, to which we now append some further returns. DVIAYSIt Int.—The harvest has commenced under auspi cious circumstances. The crop., particularly of wheat and barley, are remarkably promising. With respect to the for mer, it is a matter of some difficulty to speak confidently as to the amount of the yield. But if reliance may be placed tines appearances, the crop will, at least, be a fair average One, both as to quantity and quality , . The ears are not only large, but there is an abundance of straw. The barley crop plentiful. In some instances, where it has been more than w ully - heavy, it has been laid,—a circumstance wh 'd , may be attended with the effect of depreciating the quality of the grain. In other', be - reasonably dared. The bean will prove a serious failure, and p price of oats. 'f be rain which beneficial to the turnip and potato ins . under the late prevailing drought emotion of produce, there is also • promise and the reports which lately prevailed, e• asses of the disease of last_y_ear, are now 0 LOUCUTII6BIIIB33.—Wheat-eutting aridly, and in some few instances ricks It proves ninth better than was expected, fins in the ear awl grain, and scarcely at all injured by being laid. Beans are • failure ; so mush so that in some Instances they have bees cut down. There will not be half an average crop. Barley is long in the straw, without being laid, and good in quality. On the early land it is being cut. The potato disease has est made its appearance yet. What was said to be the disease is nothing more thin a speck or scab, which in other years Is not naiad. Swedes and turnips are generally a gad plant, though suffering for want of rain, and In some fields they have been attacked by the grub ; but it is too early to speak confidently es to the result of the crop. CUMBERLAND.—The market has commenced most pa misingly. Barley has been cut, and some tine samples of new exhibited in market on Saturday last. The crops ars all most abundant. aad apparently of very fine quality. especially those of wheat and oats. A finer harvest woo never known. The green crops are also excellent. Potatoes are, so far, remarkably good ; and there is no appearance of disease or failure, save in some very partial cases, sad those to a very slight extent. Ins or Wit:tire—Some fields of Talavera wheat has been secured. As to the wheat crop generally in this island there will be a deficiency in quantity. as it is thin on the lend, and a deficiency in the ear. Barley promises better. Beans are blighted to a great extent, almost a failure., Peas are blighted, but not to the extent of the beans. Potatoes are looking well. SOMERS ETS Hlllll.—The weather still continues to be every thing that could be desired, and reaping has become general. The wheat will not only be of excellent quality but abundant in quantity. The accounts of the barley crops are also every where most flattering, and exceed the most sanguine antict pationa. The potato crop continues to look mat promising, and the early sorts offer an abundant yield. The late potatoes want rain. but the genial showers of the last three or four days cannot fail to prove most beneficial to them. Beans are almost a total failure, and in many instances the farmers have bad them mown, not considering them worth anything but litter for their cattle. ERTFORDSH IRE. —The harvest is in full operation. The crops of all descriptions are very good, with plenty of straw, especially the barley, which promises a most abundant yield. The eyre i o s tit Ag onies, the lato T g e entle rains being ben t vial tal ind turnips. re is - Milk rumours of the disease having appeared among the potatoes, but at present nothing . has been discovered at alllikely to prove of any serious injury to the crop. BERWICKBHI RE. —The crops are progressing most favour. ably, and already some patches of early barley have been cut. From the rich yellow appearance of the straw there cannot be a doubt of the superior quality of the grain of every description. The beans and peas are a great crop, filling well and bulky. Potatoes have hitherto completely resisted the influence of the blight, and are getting ripe • on good land the crop is abundant and well favoured. White turnips are on some farms affected with that peculiar disease, "fingers and toes," which entirely destroys the plant. Unless we have a few days' rain the second crop of clover will be very poor this season. Inverrecas-aurne.—The weather is again most favour able, and the cereal crops are ripening fast. The barley, oat, And wheat mope are expected to be ready about the lath cur rent. The quality of all crops is excellent. Turnips never looked better in the fields than they are now doing. Potatoes are nearly ripe. To all appearance the crops of every kind will be most abundant. . . . . . PEartratt inn —NV heat is changing colour fast, but barley will come first to the sickle, and a commencement is expected the end of this or begining of next week. The fine filling weather we have had for some weeks has added greatly to the weight of ell the grain crops, and all kinds, it is new ex pected, will considerably exceed an average. The turnip crop is the most splendid ever on the ground ; and potatoes continue to swell to the bulb, and look healthy in the show. Altogether there never was a richer promise on the face of the earth, and only a few weeks longer of fine weather would see it all safely housed. AREIWEEN.—Some Oats and Barley have been cut, but the crops in general will be about a fortnight or three weeks later than last year. They are all very promising ; in the meantime the potato crop is looking remarkably well, and no appearance of disease as let.

MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. Two o'Clock.—We have reports of two extensive City failures in the corn trade this morning, and of another from Sligo. For the present, and until in the possession of more positive particulars, it would be improper to give names, although only too cur rent in many peoples' mouths. the funds opened well this morning, however, and in advance of yesterday's prices, which is partly attributable to the return of the i a t i: . i t ircious weather, lately rather overclouded, and y also to purchases yesterday and this morning y the Chancery , broker, this being the last week, from the Court of Chancery breaking up for the holydays, when the fonds in its charge can be laid out in stocks or realised. Consols were first done at 87 to 1 for money, and 871 to 1 for time. They subsequently improved to 871 to for time, and so are at present, after being done at 874 ; for money, 874 to 1.

The few sales effected must be considered u at last week's rates, though we heard of some good Wheat changing . bands at 141. per load; indeed, dealers generally would g ive no more, while holders demanded 161. to 171. FAREHAM, Aug. 10.—Wbeat sold freely; best, from 161. to 171. per load ; good red, 161. 100. to 16/. ; common samples, 14/. les. to 151. New Barley, at from 4/s, to 465. per qr.; old, at 425. Oats, at from 25s to 28s. New Peas, at from 40s. to 455. Beans, at from 48s. to 565. Flour, at 525. to 565. per bag. Tares, 71. to Bs. per bushel, - - _ - - - LEEDS, Aug. 10.—We are fairly supplied with Wheat. Fine fresh qualities are in demand, at an advance of Is. per qr. from Friday's rates. Other sorts without alteration in value. Barley nominal. English Beans inquired for ; prices as before. Oats and Shelling steady. No variation in other articles. Arrivals during the week : Wheat, 5,863 qrs. ; Oats, 1,952; Barley, 294; Beans, GB9. . - LIVERPOOL, Aug. 10. - Much rain has fallen at in tervals since Friday, attended by a colder temperature, and this has also been the case in various parts of the country, though by no means general ; but strong drying winds have so far prevented any material injury to the coops in this dis trict, where harvest is partially in progress, and with favourable weather would soon become ger.eral. Notwith standing the important decline of late established on all grain produce, the near approach to harvest under auspicious circumstances, and successive large weekly importations, entirely preclude disposition to speculative investment, and even the consumptive demand hu been but slightly stimu lated by the manifest inclination of holders to meet it, though dealers are mostly rather low in stock than other wise. To meet the abundant arrivals noted at foot, we had a large attendance of both local and country buyers at this day's market, and for the finer descriptions of Wheat, more particularly, a tolerable sale was experienced at prices a shade over those of Tuesday lit; while Flour, being relatively cheaper, was in rather extensive request at Is. per barrel above the rates of that day, each thus losing a portion of the advance made on Friday. In fine qualities of Bea we make no change to-day, but Egyptians must be noted Is. per qr. cheaper, which induced a moderate retail demand. Oats, of which the market is neerly bare, preserve their late value, but Oatmeal has receded fully 2s. per sack. The middling and low sorts of Indian Corn con tinuing to be much wanted for feeding, such brought an advance of le. per qr. ; the best descriptions were, however, slow sale, and without improvement in prices.

The trilling business in Wheat was at about last week's rates; 621 b. to 631 b., 58e. to 605.: fine, 625. Harvest has began pretty generally in this neighbourhood. Averages posted this day Wheat, 31. 10s. 6d.; Barley, 21. 61. ; Oats, 11. 12s. 0d- ; Beans, 21. 15e. PLYNIOVTII, Aug. 10.—Our corn market to-day was well attended with country millers, who purchased small wall of foreign Wheat at previous rates; but owing to holders not being inclined to give way in price, little business was done. The weather ts unsettled with rain. SALISBURY, Aug. 10.—For Wheat the highest price given was 68s. per qr., that being 2s. per qr. beyond the top price given last Tuesday; Infenor samples were also deare i r se bi ls. M qr., at which rate but few samples were dis of. There were several samples of new Wheat shown, t being in bad condition they were not sold ; the torn very bright, bold, and heavy, fine weather only wanted to bring It into good order. Several superior samples of new Barley were shown, and offered at 4os. per qr.; some sold at 445. ; old Barley, 40s. to 425. Malt offered at from 70s. to 72a. per qr. Oats rather scarce ; the price rather higher than last week ; some good Pulands fetched 30s. per qr. ; moderate quality, 275. Peas were cheaper ; this year's fully 2s. per qr. lees, finest net making beyond 48s. ' • some good sidling at 42a. Beans down 2a. per qr. • prices from 48s. to 645. per qr. New spring Tares 71. per babel. Sr. Iva, Aug. 9.—The corn market a little better, at an advance of 2s. to 2s. 6d. per load ; but the buyers were con fined to millers for home consumption. No business done with the merchants. Erten'', Aug. 9.—The comparatively broken weather of the last few days has cawed a partial reaction in some of the English markets, and the prices of a number of articles are quoted a shade higher than in the beginning of last week. In our market, however, prices oontinue to tend downwards. First Flour, at the Templegoirran Mills, sells at 225. per cwt ; second, 205.; third, 16s. •, and fourth, 12s. Indian Corn Meal remains at 9s. per cwt., and American Flour at 30e. per barrel. A good business is reported doing at these prices. Potatoes continue plentiful, and the quality of all lunds of the best description. Prices are now 6d. to Ild. per stone. Some quantity of rain has fallen, but we have had Rae stir ring breezes, keeping the grain well on its feet. In the mean time r has partially commenced in our neighbourhood, and th ud premises to beood. None of the new grain Cr7sCorns , Aug. 8.-. The price of Wheat has fallen Wont 3 th. 9 s. to I th. 27 s. 8 pf. ; and this day the price of bread has diminished by 1 a. 7 pf. B . r. PETERSBURG, July 30.—A general fall in the prices of grain of all kinds. A corn-dealer at Zwickau, who bought up all the corn just as it was being brought into the town, had a momentary monopoly in the market, and demanded the old prices. The people made a stand ; complaints were made to the authorities, and he was instantly arrested and put into prison. METALS.—Outecow, Aug. 7.—The price of Scotch Pig Iron delivered free on board here maybe quoted at 4Ss. per ton, net cash, for mixed numbers. Our market has thu week participated in the depression prevailing in the money market, a decline of fully 2s. having taken place since Monday last, notwithstanding the continuation of the strike amongst the miners and colliers, and the stoppage of blast furnaces in the Maitland districts. CHEESE. SALISBURY, Aug. 10.—A greater quantity than usual pitched; trade good. Chedder, of last veer, 86e. to 83. per cwt.; good, 765. to 785.; moderate, pOs. to 729.

Mt 1. MM.... 9W. 1.1 3. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, AUG.II. THE retirement of Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN from the representation of the county of Limerick has not excited much memorise amongst that gentleman's private friends. It has been evident for some time that he was thoroughly disgusted with his position, though he would probably be reluctant to confess it. The station at which he aimed demanded far greater powers of eloquence and versatility than he could display. Ile has been a mere shuttlecock, knocked to and fro by the battledores of Old and Young Ire land. He influenced no votes in parliament—he wielded no greet influence outside the house. lie had some talents for committee business. Within a certain compass he was more clear and methodical in his ideas than the majority of the Irish members. His com mand of facts was large but he had no power of setting them off in a striking manner, or making his knowledge of a particular ques tion attractive I to each an impatient audience as the House of Commons. It must be acknowledged that both Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN and Mr. JOHN O'CONNELL were, personally, two of the most mediocre tribunes who ever canvassed the support of the Irish demo cracy. They both traded on their names. Deprive Mr. O'BRIEN of the memory of his ancestors, strip Mr. JOHN O'CONNELL of the fame of his father, and neither of the gentlemen, in eloquence , intellect, or energy, have any pretensions to fill leading parts in public life. Mr. O'BRIEN, however, has committed a great mistake in withdrawing from parliament. lie fancies that be loses none of his influence by ceasing to sit in the House of Commons. But to abdicate always betrays weakness. His withdrawal from parliament is en instinctive admission of his inaptitude for the senate, and of hie incapacity to wield political power. Besides, his countrymen love the externals of power, and in their eyes he will appear much shorn of pub lic honour in his private station. In the state of civilisation in which Ireland is at present, the fact of being a member of an old family is of great social advantage to a candidate fizerpularity. The OlitHENs are of "the real old Sir Lewis O'BRIEN, of Dromoland, in the county of Clare, brother to Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN, re presents one of the first families in Ireland. He is now • candidate for the county of Clare, and his can vass has been very successful. Unswerving probity has been an attribute of the house of Dromoland. The electors of Clare do not forget the virtues of the late estimable Sir EDWALD O'BRIEN, and report speaks most favourably of the merits of the present baronet. It is very likely that he will be elected ; and even though his polities are conservative, many of the Irish liberals will rejoice at his return. The re-appearance of Mr. O'GORMAN MAHON, now M.P. for Ennis, in Irish politics was =looked for, and has been very unwelcome to the supporters of Mr. ions O'CoNNELL. Some years since, Mr. O'GoßmAte MAHON played a very eccentric in public life. The " scenes " which part caused in the House of Commons can hardly be forgotten by some of our readers. His politics were always of the popular school, but he refused to be one of Mr. O'CoNNELL's "tail members." He was ambitious of leadership. Like many other Irish public characters he has few of the qualities desirable in a senator, though possessing nearly all those required by a tribune. He has personal courage bor dering on recklessness, and a love of adventurous enterprise partaking of extravagance. In the calm atmosphere of our English politics he is not likely to find his element. If public life were a melodrama, Mr. O'GORMAN MAIION would be exactly ignited for its "striking situations." The bravura line of poli tics is that in which he excels. His humour and vivacity will, however, be a relief after the pro verbial dulness of the " tail members." The boldness, also, of Mr. O'GORMAN MAHoN's character will invest him with a kind of respect. He has none of the mean, time-serving, pitiful qualities, which have disgraced the character of some of the Irish popular members. The city of Cork election has been attended with more personality and bitterness of feeling than any other contest in Ireland. Three repealers stood for the city, and the question for the electors was purely a personal one. The contest was calmed by the de claration of Mr. CALLAGHAN, that he would not seek again to be returned to parliament. The popular voice in the city of Cork nominated Mr. FAOAN as the colleague of Mr. M'Corrur, whose maiden speech in parliament was so extravagantly complimented by Sir It. PEEL. It appeared, however, that Mr. CALLAGHAN was only coquetting with the constituency. He presented himself again to their notice, but the majority of the repealers were most anxious to get rid of him. Mr. CALLAC,HAN, however, was too ponderous a gentleman to be easily shaken off. A very disagreeable contest was the result. The conservatives decided the struggle by coming to the aid of their old friend, who, 18 years since, had been sent to the House of Commons to ad vocate their principles. They did net forget his in trepid defence of Irish landlordism in the last session, from the attacks of Mr. ROEBUCK and Sir BENJAMIN HALL. Their votes enabled him to outnumber Mr. M'CARTHY; and Mr. FAGAN, who, by the electoral voice, was at the head of the poll, retired rather than permit his relative, Mr. M'CARTHY, to be unseated. No other Irish member has appeared in so many lights SS Mr. CALLAGHAN ; the facility with which he has at various times changed . his party is startling. He has been successively a tory, a whig, and anti-repealer opposed to agitation ; then a repealer and violent O'Connellite. The " member for Cork" has been in politics what the " Vicar of Bray" was in religion. In recognition of the "artful dodges," by which Mr. CALLAGHAN makes his political transitions, his humour-loving fellow citizens have conferred on him the title of " the great Core of Cork!" It is certainly a pity that Mr. CAL LAGHAN has not been more consistent in his politics. He has many of the qualities wanted in the Irish members. He has talents for business, if he were industrious; and great knowledge of Ireland, if he would only apply it usefully. But indolent and insin cere, he has loitered through political life, unrewarded by office, unsupported by public esteem. Much was expected from him, as a commercial member, but he has disappointed expectations. His ejection from Parliament would have been a gain, rather than a .~_ loss, to the liberal party, as he cannot be depended upon. Amongst the " promising young men" returned to the present parliament is Mr. KEOGH, the member for Athlone. He is a barrister by profession, a catho lic in religion, and a conservative in politics. He is reputed to be a gentlemen of more talents than judgment. For several years he has enjoyed a repu tation for political ability, and amongst the young lawyers of the inns of court he is well known for his talents as a declaimer. It is very safe prophecy to speak of him as " a man of whom the world will one day hear more." He has vast energy and great audacity of character, a stentorian voice, great fluency of speech, and vehemence of delivery. At the Irish bar, he obtained very rapid success, and has a large practice for &junior. Whether Mr. KEOGH will obtain the influence he aims at we will not now conjecture. He is likely, however, to prove one of the most active speakers in the present parliament, and he will pro bably be found very useful by the PEEL party in Irish politics. We are glad to perceive the success of Mr. Sneth at Duogarvan, and Sir DENUAM NORREYS at Mallow; both members of the liberal party, opposed by the fanaticism of the repealer.. The member for Mallow is a most independent and upright public man, with very fair talents for business. The liberal whigs in Ireland are placed in an awkward position, between the violence of the repealer. and the apathy of the conservatives. Up to the present time, the repealers have nothing to boast of in the contest. As might have been expected, the Middlesex elec tion has ended in the total rout, horse and foot, of Col. THOMAS WOOD and his tory friends. From the begin ning there was little doubt of the result, and at the close of the first day's poll the late member was plainly defeated. The final majority has proved so decisive as to satisfy every one that nothing but the most culpable apathy on the part of the liberal electors could have allowed Col. THOMAS WOOD again to occupy the post of member for the metropolitan county. This contest has furnished another proof that simple conformity to the industrial public policy of the day will not satisfy the intelligent constituen cies. It is not enough that legislators will not oppose they least be willing and able to aid it. R i lfl7 ll l4MAB WOOD had come ow to the point of tans trade in corn, but that was all. He was probably as good a free trader as could be manufactured out of a tory country gentleman of not more than average abilities, but he was not imbued with that sympathy with industry which is necessary for a representative of Middlesex. Still there were powerful influ ences at work in his favour. The whole tory aristocracy of the county actively supported him. His opponent, Mr. OSBORNE, came forward without the assent—almost in spite of the discountenance—of the whig aristocracy of the county ; and it was quite cer tain that he was the popular candidate before he was avowedly supported by the government. Moreover, he is a young man without that species of family con nexion which hes, until recently, been deemed requi site for a county member. Such were his disadvantages. But on the other hand he had proved himself an able debater in parliament, and had taken his stand la Idly and unreservedly on the side of industry and progress. ' This was sufficient. The Middlesex electors see that it is not now a question of free trade in corn, or any other particular commodity, but whether the dead weight of the land, or the living industry of the community, shall rule this commercial nation. They have done their part on behalf of industry. Hence forth, the battle of the industrious will have to be fought in the counties. The towns—at least such of them as are not mere nomination boroughs—are won, for scarcely a city or borough member has been elected on any other ground than as a promoter of industry. The Middlesex election confirms the opinion we ventured to express several weeks since—that county constituencies were far more open to liberal can didates than bad been generally supposed. That opinion was not hazarded without warrant. We well knew the impatience with which the liberal electors in general, and a large proportion of the farmers in particular, SAW the great families in one district, or cliques of squires in another, preparing to send their own delegates to the House of Commons with the name, but nothing except the name, of representatives of county 'constituencies. We then said that pro perly qualified candidates, of liberal opinions, would gather about them the earnest support of county electors, and scatter the devices of the tory and pro tectionist landowners to the winds. Other county elections, as well as that of Middlesex, afford corroboration of these remarks. Wherever a vigorous effort has been made by a liberal candidate, in whom the liberal electors can confide, be has succeeded. Take the case of South Essex. There the landowners imagined they could palm upon the electors such a candidate as Mr. Bou TER SMYTH, whose address formed one of the most offensive compounds of ignorance and intolerance which even county candidates have put forth. It was obviously intended to attract the sympathies of a backward and narrow-minded body; and the electors of South Essex have done themselves great honour by rejecting its author,and electing Sir E. N. BUXTON. Let this 'be a lesson to the liberals in other counties; for if South Essex, always deemed a stronghold of toryism, could be carried, there are many other counties and divisions of counties which might return liberal members with far less dif ficulty. In many cases the effort is alone wanted. Let the thinking middle-class electors in each county organise themselves into a registration society, not with a view to support a particular man, or a parti cular party, bat with the single object of giving the middle classes of the county the power of combined and prompt action upon the county election, and the work will be well nigh done. The power of the land owners, who now domineer over the county consti tuencies, is in many instances as nominal as their interests in their estates. Both are derived from the forbearance of the real owners, and the interference of the mortgagees would not be more fatal to the squires' possessions in the one case, than an earnest and combined movement of the electors would be to their political power in the other. See what resistance to dictation has enabled the electors of West Gloucestershire to effect, with no better card than a GRANTLEY BERKELEY to play with. Surely these and other similar political incidents elsewhere must make the leading liberals of various counties somewhat regret their own apathy. There is no reason why one third of the protection ist county members, who have been re-elected with the gracious declaration of their intention to give free trade " a fair trial," might not have been dis missed to the retirement of private life to watch the great experiment. It will be well clearly to understand what these protectionist landowners mean when they talk of giving " free trade a fair trial." Their fair trial means neither more nor less than that they will watch whether the circumstances of 1848 and the temper of the community will bear an attempt to perpetuate a 4s. duty on imported wheat. This has been obscurely hinted by several of the apparently conforming protectionists; but Lord OSSULSTON, the protectionist opponent of Sir GEORGE GREY in Nor thumberland put it beyond all doubt. He said "that with respect to the old battle cry of " protection to native industry," he would just observe that, though for the present in abeyance, it was by no means to be considered at an end, for the protectionists were only waiting for the result of a great experiment, which had not yet reached the farmer." That is not to be misunderstood. The protectionists are waiting to see whether one or two fruitful harvests may not so greatly reduce the prices of grain, that they will be able again to delude all the agricultural constituencies into a belief that farmers can be benefited by " protection." That such sinister expectations will be disappointed we arc satisfied, for the farmers themselves are fully aware of the impos sibility of reviving protection. But a struggle for the purpose will assuredly be made, if only for the purpose of impeding and interrupting progressive legislation. It was, therefore, no unnecessary cau tion which induced Mr. COBDEN to recommend the free-traders to elect as their representatives none but men of earnest convictions ; and the liberals have well responded to that call. It is necessary to keep prominently before the public that the great work now to be accom plished is to secure the voice of the counties on behalf of civilisation and progress. We must lessen the obstructive power of The dead weight of the land fered to retard, as it hitherto ' cation of sound principles to The farmers will no longer th. into the landowners scale.
