t believe that we an agreed. We alike hoed that it is duty oldie government to de something to promote that and If we have failed in details,— t sad innntetest object; EamoZtoiuntgthwe pa t i h n 4 eites pe u rte pc c e ti zhi s c ‘i t hi w e e l d:i l tr:l . to . act— Imam scheme'. At all event', those details are capable of am endment. Ido not know, however, whether the ma ! eagle u pon which we profess to act is in accorduce with Lad lonian opinions. He told you that religion is an essential Fort of educatiou, and so do I. When he talked to you of the true religion and of education, I do not know whether he intended that no assistance should be given by the state ea ves to those schools which conduce their education in some. d eu ce with the principles of the established church. Lord LOVAINU. — No. • Sir Gto. ORLY.—lie disavows that intention. Then he , ress with me, perhaps, on the principle we have set up, Which is, that respecting and admiring the voluntary exer tions made with so much advantage to the public by the church mid different religious communities, it is desirable to strengthen those efforts without in the remotest degree infer rer* with the religious instruction which, in their con sciences, they believe moat likely to promote the wel fare of the children educated in their schools. (Loud a t o m) This is a principle of perfect fermis and impartiality. I hope, therefere, that If any d o ubts were entertained repenting the intentions of the goviniment of which I am a member, these doubts will now have been removed ; and I believe from n e ed Loraine's disavowal of any intention to confine state mature to those schools only which are conducted in &c -onduce with the principles of the established church, that he agrees with me as to the torneral principles on which an educational system ought be based. This at lad I know, that, standing here as he and Lord Os sulston do, as preecionise, the head of that party, Lord George Bentinek, gave his cordial support to t h e principle and details of the ministerial scheme. If they stand here as members of the protectionist party, you ought clearly to understand that their leader and chief is pledged to the support of that measure. (Rear, hear.) Again, with regard to Roman catholic endowment, Lord Lovelorn dis dained to employ that as a weapon with which to a sail me. lie said it is given up by all parties. I don't know exactly when it was entertained by any party as • party measure. 1 Pa only say that the apprehension which has been excited through the country that there is some latent design on the part of her Majesty's government to propose to parliament, as soon as they are elected, and without saying any thing on the subject, thereby deceiving their constituencies to whom they should appeal—to propose, I say, some large measure for the endowment of the Roman eathosc priesthood in Ire land—has no existence, except in the imagivation of those who have given utterance to such a statement on the hunt- My dating the recent elections. I believe that such • mea sure would be impracticable, impolitic—repudiated alike by the Roman catholics of Ireland themselves, and obji eted to—l admit, honestly objected to, though I do not concur in the oh jeetion—bv a large portion of the protestant coma.unity in this country. 'lVhen I my I do not concur in that objection I by no means wish you to infer that I gin indifferent to religious truth. This is not the place—this is not the time—at which a man is called upon to make a profession of his private opinions on religion. Let a man be judged, not by his opinions, but by his actims. I say that, net only with regard to candidates appearing before you on the hunting', but with regard to the general subject of civil disabilities on account of religious opinions. To the principle of imposing those die abilities, on the ground merely of opinions, 1 am decidedly opposed. (Loud applause.) I would not pry into another man's conscience. If be does not perform the duties which he is called upon to discharge as a member of society, I think he ought to be exposed to those consequences which the law impines on ell those who violate those laws which are established for the benefit of society ; hut as long as he performs all the duties of a good citizen and a good subject, I would hold out to him my political right hand of fellowship, however much I might differ from him in my estimate of religious truth. (Piulonged cheering.) Therefore, I do not object on any principle to the endowment of the Remelt catholic priesthood. I cannot concur with those who think that that endowment, if it were expedient—if it were de sirable—would bring down upon this country the wrath of heaven, Those who hold such language must be strangely ignorant of what we are doing every day, and of what has been done for years, I might almost say for centuries. Why, we have in Irelaud a Roman catholic population. If we were in their position—if we, as protestant', saw the Roman catholic church exclusively endowed in this country, and representing only a small minority of the populution,—l should say we should have a just cause of complaint ; and I have never heard the argument which could satisfy me that there was nothing reasonable in the complaint which has been made auto the course we posited at the reformation in taking away from the Roman catholic priesthood all the revenues they then possessed, and transferring them to another body of clergy, leaving the masa of the people attached to their ancient religion, when, in fact, no reformation whatever had taken place in that country. (Cheers.) I am, however, deeply attached to the principles of the protestant reformation. In the Rouse of Commons, or on the hustings, I am never ashamed to confetti that. But I do not think that we have any right to take exclusive privileges for ourselves, and therety impose disabilities upon others. (Cheers.) I have already, I fear, detained you too long. (Cries of " Op on.") Isepg anxious, however, to express to yon r my hearty and corded" thanks for the honour which a portion of you have done me in inviting me to become a candidate for the representation of this county. I have said before that I had no personal interests to seek ia offering myself to your notice. I had • seat in parliament, by the favour of my late cointituents, at my &Tout, and if I had vinsulted my own ease or my own interest and convenience, I should not now have oc cupied the post I now do. But I will not deny that as a resident in North Northumberland—ss a member of a hmily which for centuries has been connected with this county—l shall [alit an honour, an honour which I shall highly prise, to be raised by your independent, free, and unnamed sat frays to the distinguished post of one of your representatives. (Much cheering.) I heartily thank you for the cheers with which you have greeted me to-day, in which I read the best auguries of our success. I thank you for the enthu siasm you have shown in my behalf. I thank you for the reception which you have given me in all the districts of the county which I have been able to visit during the limited period since the termination of the sea con of parliament. You know, I believe, the reason why I did not follow the track of, or even precede, my noble friends in a public canvass of the electors. I felt that my duty was in the House of Commons as lone as parliament was sitting. There L. was day and night, declaiming to take any advantage which might have been derived from the neglect of my duties, and which would have enabled me to canvass the electors individually. But I have that reliance on your sense of justice and right, that I be lieve I shall not suffer anything in your estima tion, or lose any of your votes from haring abstained from the own to which I have adverted. (Cheers.) I did the best I amid under these circumstances. I le't town the day after the dissolution of parliamsat and was here--theebe to Mr. Hudson and his railway—in eleven hours hoe the time when I left London. Since then, I have every day em ployed myself in meeting as large bodies of electors es add be convened on market days and fair days throughout the county ; and most heartily do I thank them for the reapplies which they have there given me. I thank those deny ego Tenants w h o axe here to-day, for the kind and rand hearing which they have given me, and assay Oboe who, though unable to promise me their vow& lave ezpreseed their best wishes for my moms. My mai eallesee is on those who agree with me in political prise** and I bare so much confidence in them that I have me oiesbe that on Tuesday next, and without waiting for Weffeemlny, the result will be decisive in my favour. Our next mating in this courtyard will be on Frida , when the aril* will declare two of the candidates now hokum yes day 'hated to be your representatives. I in any use elan ayes betas you; end I look &mud to appearing %Aro yes, net lel the position I at present occupy, but as ea d par representatives. (Deafening cheat) If Invested eft that high office, I shall mums it, as I said Imam with a deep sense of the responsibilities which acts& to It, and with a deep feeling of gratitude to you for the beam which you will have cordoned me. The right lea. arouse concluded amidst sad prolonged Amin and waving of hats. A show of hands was that tam Ist the respective ma& dates. About 6,000 were preset, and of these four-fifths raised their hands . for Sir G. Orey. Lest Lovable had re spectable winkling ; but for lard Omalstoa the display wasmiserable.On behalf of the la* =Meagan a poll was demanded, which the sheriff anemeueset will take place on Tuesday (thenorrow) and Wobeentrffn the ofacial declara tion of the poll being deferred until Friday next. L•MIDITAHLII ACCIDWIT.—Fats OW TEN HIIIITINOII. Friday having been hoed for the nomination of the eon& dates for the representation of the county, the proceedings commented at the hustings, which bad been emitted in front of the Town-hall. The day being fine, and there being some excitement regarding the 00•••••, a large concourse of people had assembled. The hustings were of unusual height i _beimt made so as to admit of &mesa from the windows Of the Town-hall, which are twelve feet above the level of the street. Before the proceedings had begun, Sheriff Napier had ordered and obtained a report as to teir suffi ciency. Mr. Mackenzie of Portnoy*, the recent member for the county, and his friende, occupied the half of the hustings en the right hand of the sheriff, and Mr. Car michael, of Skirling, the opposing candidate, and his friends, the other half. After the sheriff had concluded, Mr. William Forbes, of Slipperfield, proceeded to address the assembly, with a view to propose Mr. Mackenzie. He bad scarcely got through two sentences, when in a moment the joisting gave way, and the entire flooring of the hustings be came separated from the front and back supports, and went down with a fearful crash, bearing the whole of its occupant' to the ground, except Mr. Forbes and Mr. Charles Blythe, who both clang to the front rail. The table in front, at which two reporters were seated, at an elevation of about six feet from the ground, was overturned by the shock, end the reporters kncked over and injured. There were about fifty gentlemen on the hustings when it fe ll . A ft er they had been extricated from the wreck it was fourid that ao life was lost, but that several were severely Wood. Thomas liorsburgh, Esq., of Pin, had his left leg beam; John Veitch, Esq.. of Woodside, suffered a compound has tare of the tibia, and dislocation of the ankle joint ; Juan Robertson, Eq., W.S., had several ribs broken ; Captain Gray, Innveleithen. received a severe injury in the =Me joint ; Hugh Horatio Brown, Esq., of Newhall, simple fracture of the leg ; Mr. J. Gibson, jun., Lochurd, abhor Lion of wrist joint ; Dundee Murray, Esq., dislocation of shoulder ; Mr. Drummond, the reporter for the Edirefireph !Yana., was injured, and the reporter for th e North Dribs* Mail was also hart ; Mr. C. Cowan, the new M.P. kr Edinburgh was amongst those slightly injured. After the lapse of some time the nomination was quietly gene through, and the polling days fix,' for Wednesday and Thursday. It is expected to be a very severe contest. BUTLAND3BIBB. The Declination and elation et smarm for this aitenty took place on fletneday is the Castle, at Gramm. The attendance of froeboleen was very scary, aced sot meek la tenet erased to &trek to the election, ft beg looked upon by many as a arra between two powerful bandies, and • matter m which the electors preen only a secondary am era. Mr. Fydcll, of Morcott, nominated Mr. Gilbert John Methane, one of the late members, r a fit person to be again returned. Mr. Ralston receded the nomination. Mr. Finch, one of the late menthers, proposed the Hon. Gerard James Noel, son of the Berl of Gaiaaborongh. Mr. Stafford O'Brien (father of the member for North North amptonslike) seconded the nomination. No other can didate was proposed, and Mr. Heathcots and Mir. Noel were declared by the sheriff duly elected. WARWICKSHIRE (NORTE!). As was anticipated in this paper on Saturday, Mr. Spooner's friends have been enabled sufficiently to "get up the steam" to ioduce the hen. gentleman to come forward and contest the representatio a with Mr. Dugdale, solely because that gentleman voted for 81r Robert Peel's mea sures; and it is with some regret we announce that the very shadow of Mr. Spooner bas induced Mr. Dugdale to withdraw from the contest. This resolve came most unex pectedly on the liberal party on Saturday. They would to a man have supported Mr. Dugdale, thus rendering his re election completely certain; and in these circumstances they will make an etfirt to induce him to forego his resignation. In the meantime, however, the liberals of Birmingham have not been inactive: it was at once determined that Mr. Spooner's election should not ho unopposed; and aimed at the instant that the antouncensent of Mr. Degdale's resignation was made knows, an address was issued by Mr. Charles Holte Bracebridgs, of Atherstosirelisll, who contested the county is the liberal interest in 1837. [This will be found in our advertising columns.] It is well known to his friends that Mr. Bracebridge is not now ambitious of a seat in parliament ; but that he conies forward on this occa sion solely ( or the lake of those principles which he has, for a long course of years, consistently advocated, and to prevent the representation of the division falling into the bands of a bigoted tory. It is to be hoped that the liberal elector s will properly appreciate this motive, and, that notwithstand ing the disadvantage under which he labours of • late appearance in the field, that they will exert themselves to secure his election; the course Mr. Spooner has pur sued in this matter has been of the most tortuous character. "On Saturday," mys • correspondent, '.ice harangued some of the electors in the neighbour hood of Warwick, in his usual inflated and wordy style, each sentence containing some half-dozen adjectives, none of them having reference to say particular thing which any one of his auditory could understand. The other day it was the " will of Providence" that Mr. Spooner lost Bir mingham, that is, according to his own conception of the matter. Successful or unsuccessful, the hon. gentleman will be rare to have the same phraseology shout his present election, although it might have been supposed that such a list for his rejection by one constituency might have deterred hint from " wooing another." It is to be hoped that, in the coming contest, his defeat will be as complete as that which be encountered in Birmingham. YORKSHIRE (WEST RIDING). The election of two knight's of the shire to represent this large constituency commenced on Saturday, at Wakefield. Owing to the announcement that Mr. Cobden would be pro posed as the second free-trade candidate, contrary to the general expectation that the two late members, Lord Moe peth and Mr. Denison, would be elected without opposition, considerable interest was excited, especially as it was not ge nerally known whether • contest would ensue or not, or whether a second conservative would be proposed. The hustings were erected within the court-house yard, facing down Wood-street, the same site as was occupied when the memorable conflict took place between the Blues and Yel lows, at the nomination in July, 1837.—The high sheriff, J. Dent, Esq., arrived at the court-house at twenty minutes past 10, and was immediately followed by Mr. Denison, supported by the Hon. E. Law:elks, 14. P., and Mr. Rand. his proposer and seconder, and a numerous procession of his committee and lending suppor t ers. They came up without flags or banners, end but a single band of musicians. The friends at Lord Morpeth and Mr. Cobden followed next, with a . != array of orange flags andlssionare,and several bandedmsefa. Lord Morpeth was habited Se a knight of the shine, saimewneed on a charger richly caparisoned, and bearing acme dsvuem. The high sheriff opened the proceedings in a riff epee* and called upon any elector who had a candidate to propose to stand forward.—Mr. W. R. Milner ' of Non Appleton, proposed the Right Hen. George William Freda** Howard, commonly called Lord Viscount fit and proper person to repromat this large in parliament. He had great dillimity eint , _ lhr of one who had long enjoyed this list_ Mr. liawkaworth Fawkes—who was peened* gattalligudtion from being present. He had, however , the date of proposing to them a nobleman who in pest time done honour to their choice, and who was the friend of the whole human race—the true friend of civil and religious liberty. He trusted that they would again return him as their repre sentative for the ninth time, not only in approbation of kis past conduct, but in token of approval of the principles of the government of which he was a distinguished member. He (Kr. Mil net) had heard this morning for the first time diathermia to be a contest for the riding. It had taken him and many others by surprise. He would have preferred that such •move • ment had been made two or three weeks ago, but so it had commenced, they must lay private feelings aside in the din charge of a great public duty ; and as tbe great pioneer of commercial freedom was to be propcsed, it world be his duty and a 'demure to support him. Mr. Milner aoudads& by reverting to the past services of Lord Morpeth as a guarantee for his future course. Mr. Thomas Dunn, of Sheffield, seconded the nomination. The observa tions of Mr. Milner had left little for him to say; for be felt that it was not neceseary to enlarge apes the personal qualifications of the noble lord. It was the lea anemary to do that, because the present elastics wee not to tern upon personal eonsideritions. lie admitted that Mr. Denison h d ad i ; th rhuali fi cations, and that he had ably and promptly the duties which attached to his late high poetics ; but the question now was whether they would return one member to support liberal and progressive and another member to oppose them—whether V s wield have one member for free trade and one hr protection; or whether they would return two men to support the advance of free trade principles. (Chseise.) And though it might be thought that the West Riding was large enough to furnish two suitable ment hes teem its own body, yet the gentleman to be proposed as the esilesese of the noble lord was a man of sufficient mark te entitle him to this distinction. He hoped, then, that they would keep th at object singly in view, and that there would a• g. of Lord Morpeth or Mr. Cobden.— The as. S.

(Hear, hear, and sheen.) And I Pm. amtlomen,l have sometimes been led to think that tbe importance which has always been attached to the eludes he Ile county . of York, sad for your district of Yorkshire espethdly, the imposing character ef the audiences that one time or soother have been gathered on these *cessions, and the weight which their imbues have obtained in the public councils of the united realm, certainly have given me an opportunity, such as in the ordinary run of business in parliament, or the common place strife of parties there engaged, is seldom supp.ied, of carrying our range of view beyond the immediate demands of the hour, and of speaking as if from an eularred acres the national feeling and the national heart. (Hear, hr.) With this feeling, gentlemen, although I may have shared, although I may have incurred, mishaps or failures elsewhere, yet as nos as I have been brought front to front with the West Riding constituency and within the hearty ringing of West Riding cheer., I feel ;hat I have obtained a full warrant to speak —aye, eves with authority, to all my countrymen. (Cheers.) I thus venture here to tell them, that I think one of their present dangers at the present time —I do not say their only danger-1 do out say that there may not be l i even opposite dangers which they ought to geed against.— I but one of their prose it dangers is a ?semi of religions bigotry. (Hoar, hear, and cheer..) I don't mean that we are in any danger of seeing bigotry re.illuminating its extinct tires or whetting its blunted sword—its weapons now are not of such coarse temper. (Hear, hear.) I don't expect to • hear it even talking of coercive restrictions or arbitrary ex clusions ; though we now and then try to banish a Jesuit or unseat a Jew. (Laughter and cheers.) But these are not its ordinary caprices. Ido not either quarrel with persons who say" We will not endow." I think that persons and de nominations not endowed themselves, have a positive right to object to an j enlargement of the endowment we already have—(cheers —though I may not think that churchmen can object. owever, I believe endowment is not now in the remote contemplation of any persons or of any party ; but then I think it necessary, for my own consistency, to make some nos 'nation when I hear it said that the state shall not educate—(hear, hear)—when I hear it said that we will not be privy to promote or disseminate error—that we will sanction nothing but the teaching of truth. ( hear.) Why, gentlemen, what words, what mockeries are these, in the lips of us and such se us ? Truth and enor,—which perhaps may escape the outward discern• meat of even angelic natures! I doubt even, if we coed summon before us some bright ishabitant of the aim sphere, whether he would not be the foreman to tell lathe the Almighty has made all his creatures to love him, and none to comprehend him. (Hear.) At all events, man has been distinctly told that the sum of his religion consists in two points—unfeigned piety to his maker, sad unbounded love to his fellow-man. ',Cheers.) With respect to such a question as endowment, fur instance, though I am not pre pared to consent to any endowment of duo Roman catholic clergy.—(a voice : " No, nor the church of England either ") —though I believe that no persons or party are prepared to bring forward such a proposal, yet I must frankly say that bringing forward such a proposal would, in my bumble judgment, be a folly and an insanity, but it would not be a crime. (Rear.) And while no one is more ready than my self to object to such a proposal being made at the present time, or at any future time which I conceive likely te onus yet ray objection is not, like that of many well-meaning ami excellent people, upon religious grounds. If I thought est the recognition or endowment of the state could inert the character of truth to any denomination, to any form of belief or mode of worship, I should he tate before I stamped it with that r; but the character of truth is of a higher order than legislation can give. So with respect to education, I think it quite a fair ground for those who object to government grants and state assistance to contend that voluntary effort is a more efficient and powerful agent than state effort, if I may so term it— d that state effort would displace so much of the voluntary effort as to give us less of the article, and a lea good article than if we left voluntary effort to itself—this, I say, is a quite fair ground for them to take. lus not disposed to concur with it ; I am disposed myself to think that if the state comes forward, where education cannot be otherwise supplied, end where a corresponding exertion is made to meet it, if it adopts the most useful methods and best ap pliances at its command, it is more likely to rouse and guide voluntary effort—(loud min of " No, no," and some of "Yes, yes")—more likely to assist in the way of stimulus—("No, no," and ' yes")—than if they left voluntary effort to its own laudable, unassisted, sad uncontruted energies. (Cries of "No, no," and "hear hear.") I fear that we tannin attain that which I should myself prefer; that is, schools to which all should resort, and by which all should be benefited in common, without distinction of meet or rivalry—(hear, hear, and oheen)—to at tain which desirable end lam ready, as have stated to' all the mailman I have addressed on the subject, to forego the giving of any specific religious instruction in connexiint with the ordinary business of the school; and to leave that to their own pastors—(hear, hear)—to their own parents— (hear, bar)—to the Sunday school—(hear, hear)—to their ems senotmaries—(hear, hear)—and to the not less precious saw deo family hearth. (Loud applause.) There is one antilest to which I have already referred, which has occupied ewe of my own attention, which I cannot refer to without eel feelings of pain and regret, but which nevertheless I meld not avoid making a short reference to on the present amemion; I allude to measures for the improvement of public health. (Hear, hear). Ido not think it is to our present pur pose that I should enter into any explanation of the causes why the Health of Towns Bill did not pass is the last session of parliament. If any blame attaches to myself, I must at , apt it. I will frankly own, that in looking back upon all that is passed, I think that one mistake was made in the party campaign. (Hear, hear.) I found, at a comparatively I early period, that it was a very geaeral impression, that a subject so important and so complicated could not be under taken with any success in the last anion, and at the close of an expiring parliament. (Cheese.) Bat so =none was Ito effect something in the way of a beginning, that I was led to propose the omission of those parts of the bill which seemed most likely to meet with general opposition, in order to steam W rest.

There cannot be any question, *mo t what is the feeling of the West R • the albite ef free trade; and I flatter myself that asvas dont view apes that subject, lam in harmony with the glum Aiding.

But, gentlemen, let me put it to each of you, whether the same eireumatances, the same melookoly proof that we see of these vintations of dearth and ihmlite, do not in the moat positive manner urge the propriety of giving the greatest possible access to foreign grain—(cheers).—mud of encouraging the foreign Brewer to ruse additional crops for __ T/~.. with gluiest a you like. I aware yes yes menet hurt me if yen emu mg ern, and I will take care yet de eot damage area If yen keep me U. Ido not say that I 'lipoid not regret losing the law= at repramatiag you, but I have notbought the halter by width lam to hang myself . But they tell me that lam and a free-trader. What do you mean by free trade ? If mit moan the taking off of duties from the venous consumed by the community, or the duties an theme salmis, ea which their labour depends, if you mean the tether egad sash duties as will net affect the safety of the fitadhelder, then I am a freeereder ; but if you mean the taking off of those duties which produce an immense re venue, if you mean the taking off of those duties a ithout jadgessat and without we not to endanger the interest of the f'.- I '.r, I tall you that lam no free-trader. If yea ma show me with respect to tea, which yields from heir to flee millions a year, that the Chancellor of the Ex tholes, CM take the duty off without injury to the revenue, I would support it. (A voice, " Was the corn law for pro be:ilea ex revenue ?") The answer I give is, that it was not put oneager either; there is no analogy between the ditties an corn and on other articles, because the duty on tea, sugar, fie., is for the purpose of raising a revenue to enable the Chan/allot of the Exchequer to pay the interest of the na tional debt, the expenses of the judges, &c. Now, with respect to the duty on corn, I say it was not for the protec tion of landowners, but to encourage agriculture for the benefit of the working classes—(great laughter end hinies)— and in order that upon an average of years there might be sufficient corn grown at once for the consumption of our own population. When Lord John Russell tried to form an administration in 1845, it was the question of the repeal of the corn laws that upset the attempt, and it was the party associated with him who would not consent to the proposal. It was left to Sir It. Peel to pro pose it, and I am bound to say he did it from conscientious motives. It was, therefore, the conservative party, after all, with the assistance of the whige and radicals, who carried that measure. (Cries of " No, it was Cobden.") The whigs were for a fixed duty in 1841, and I said that was a fixed injustice, and that a sliding . scale was better than a fixed duty, and had the scale existed at the present time there would have been no duty at all. I know very well there are merchants, and whig merchants too, who are now complaining of the importation of manufactured goods from abroad. They are imoehng inferior articles, and. I beg you will consider what effect this must have upon the palace ' who have to stand this severe competition. Mr. Denims next referred to the part be bad taken in taking the duty off foreign wool, and to the several votes he had given in support of Sir R. Peel's measures. With respect to future prospects, he was disposed to congratulate rather than condole. lie implored I them to do all in their power to give assistance to the noble lord and to the government with respect to education. He had no doubt this country would rise higher and higher, and would stand in a nobler position than at this moment. With respect to the other nations of the earth, he could not for a moment doubt that we were destined to convey christianity and religious feelings to the distant corners of the globe. (Cheers.) In reply toe question on the subject of the navi gation laws, Mr. Denison said it was a subject of a difficult nature. He was not on the committee, and he defied any One to give an opinion until the whole of the evidence had hese gone through. With respect to church-rates, he held property subject to the payment of those rates, and he would never be rogue enough to endeavour to get quit of the liability. (Mr. Denison then retired amid cheers from his Mends on the hustings.) There were here loud calls for Mr. Cobdea's representa- tive, and the name of " Bright, Bright," and cheers. ,Joule BRIGHT, Esq., M.P. on presenting himself, wee ' received with loud and prolonged cheers. When the ap plause had subsided, he said:—Mr. High Sheriff: I have been requested to stand before this vast assemblage, and to speak on behalf of your candidate and my friend, Richard Cobden. And I feel that I need not offer sny apology far so doing, for I have the satisfaction of being an elector of the West ?tiding of Yorkshire. I have also the satisfaction el saying that from a recent happy charism it my domestic cir cumstances I can scarcely consider myself a stranger in thilf term of Wakefield. From the manner in which the propo sition of Mr. Cobden's name has been received by this meet ing, I feel quite assured I need not stand here to utter say words of praise on him past services, or, by anything that I can say, to justify his put political career. lam proud to live in the coun tr y which has produced a man like him who has been proposed for your selection. Born of parents in my own walk of life, and the rank of the vast majority hers, he, by his own exertions, by his own ability, by his own honest following of holiest convictions, has made him self what he is, and has become one of the greatest and most distinguished benefactors to the country which is proud to own him as a citizen. I have been a fellow-labourer with him for many years, and there are hundreds in this great meeting who have seconded his efforts, and my efforts, and the efforts of every labourer in the great free-trade cause ; and it is a proud thing now, at this general election, to we how firm a hold the principles of free trade have taken upon the public mind of this country. Orly three days ago—only the day before yesterday, I think Iffir. Villiers, himself the parliamentary leader of the free: tide interest, was elected without opposition by the great eartituency of South Lancashire. He was already a mem ber, without opposition, for the great end enlightened con stituency of Wolverhampton ; but we in South Lancashire Might that we might affix our seal to his political charac ter, sad if it be possible (I doubt if it be possible) give him a r standing than that be already occupies. And Mr. M Is himself now a member of the House of Commons, elefetod, I may say, without opposition also; for there was an opposition to him intended in the contest for Stea -1 p or e ; and there are thousands within your county who are resolved to give him also additional honour. (Loud cheers.) And if I may be permitted to give an opinion I should say that the great peobability is, that Mr. Cobden will also be elected without oppesities. Every man who is distin guish ed for his labours fa ouseesian with the Anti-Corn Law League —almost every awn who has solicited, and some who have not solicited, have been returned to parliament on this occa sion. Mr. John Biegamm Smith, our first chairman of the League, is roternmi for a Scotch borough, and as to our pre sent highly-reepend and valuable chairman, I don't know how many born& he has bees solicited to represent. I have been returned hr Handestar without opposition. Colonel Thames' has bum. returned for Bradford. Mr. Fox, the man whom eloquence in the free-trade cause will never be forgotten by thorn who heard him, has been re turned for Oldam. Mr. George Thompson, whose elo quence is, perhaps, not less remarkable than that of Mr. Fox, and which he has often exerted in the same great cause, has been returned by an extraordinary majority foe the metropolitan borough of the Tower Hamlets. lam not astonished at the oonsistency of one of your candidates, for his consistency is not dsputed ; but I am astonished that kit should expect that either at the poll or without he could have the smallest chance of being returned again. If the constituency of the West Riding—if this great acinstitheney were in favour of protection, you could have no better repre sentative than Mr. Denison. But the whole country—the whole world—would lose is faith in the sync& of poen& representation if you were to send Lord Hoops* to par liament to say " aye" and Mr. Denison along with him to say " no." I won't pan compliments on the West Riding ; but I have an idea that you do a great de al to direst the go vernment of tbe country. When year fiat goes forth it es understood to be, to a large extent, the opinions of the intel ligent people of England. And to-day, when the show of hands comes, I know how it will be. Nicer, hear," and loud cheering.) And next week, if you should be invited to go to the poll, I have not a dew of a doubt that, as surely as next week emu, you will place Lord Morpeth and Mr. Cobden in the high position of yes. When traversing one county on =ll7 l th ei rerttcorn-law cause I premixed that we would Wog MY& el electors through the Summit Tunnel; and I las prembe yen that now. At this moment, in laateehire, the intense intiteseritt regarding this contest is probably as great as in this county itself, an wherever the mem of Mr. Cobden has been announced, as helm meadolsi nth the honoured nee of Mork thaw has hen en emeny and oemplately a mast undoubted convidien that these two names weld be haven in futon parlia ments as the rspr toting of the greats& 111001Iti homey in the empire.

The income-tax was consequently imposed, and you know the result. The inoome-tax enabled the Chancellor of the Exchequer of the present day to cause the Memo to exceed the expense of the country by between two and three millions. The government of the country also proceeded to reduce various duties ' • the duty on corn was reduced one-half, and th e duty was reduced on several other articles--and what was the consequence ? The trade of the country revived. (Cheers.) Within the five yeses that they were in office the wealth and the power of this kingdom increased at a more rapid ratio than ever it had been known to do before; and the proof of it is this--the exports rose within that period from fifty to above sixty mil lions per annum, and the imports from sixty to seventy or eighty millions. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) It is going on at this moment at that rate. These are all the acts and deeds of the govemument I bad the honour to support.
