OCTOBER 1, 1853. MR. GLADSTONE IN SCOTLAND. COMPLIMENTS such as Lord Palmerston reeei‘ed at Perth and Glasgow were Lestowed on the Chancellor of the Exchequer at Dingwall and Imerness, elicit ing in his ease likewise a couple of speeches. The Dingwall affair eante oft' on 'Tuesday morning. In aeknowledging the gift of burgesship which hailinst been bestowed upon him. Mr. GLAusroxt: founded, upon certain expressions in the civic address areom pan)ing that present, some remarks upon the eonsti nolo') of the present Government, and the gradual obliteration of party spirit in the Cabinet and Legis Lame. lle ' lOU express a 11s1 and praisewewthy heels. that I. awl the Governmeia of which I and aI member. • may long con• unite to eselleW I.arty warfare. lily sure alit progivsshe reform, and carry out in all the institutions of the State thorough and needful atneliorati tttt Gentlemen. I feel and believe, and it is a sOUrce of no Milan hilitigNirtiolt to myself, that the present tioVertlllielli is distinguished more than many which preceded it by coining less in contact with mere party organisation, and being less pledged to the purposes of party warfare. It is composed, for the most p a rt, of men having great experience in public service. They are • 41 by an honourable loud : and 1 may take it Itpolt na to say that their objeeta and wialwei are no other than you have expressed. Looking to the course which legislation has taken—settiti/ minor objects 'wide—allowing for that freedom of opinion which. thank God, pre‘ails in thi. country—and for the ditkrenees with which that freedom must be attended, 1 think we w h at all feel that the insti tutions of the country have been working well—that tiny have. been working for the benefit of the inass o;f the eom utimity. The steps taken may by some lee deemed too slow or too short ; but, on the whole. they have been in what is called the right three • : the diameter of the volley which the country has pursued has been of a nature which will I eilely distinguish her history, and which marks her state and condition in a manner the must nivourable as compared with those of other nation*. When Lord Aberdeen took office he declared it to hi his special mission to defend, complete, and seal that great work of commercial reform, the extension of Which lilts heel) t h e main characteristic of the last ten years. 1 hope you think hint faithful to hi. pledge. At this particular moment, when it is pleasing I'mvidence to press on other nations something like a scarcity of the fruits of the earth. I hope there are none who do not feel pmfounilly thankful tar the iuloption of that wise policy, by which we have removed every tranrlurl and restraint on the supply of that article lapin which our population art. dependent for subsistence." Inverness had its turn in the evening of the same day. When duly invested with the honour of citi zenship among the inhabitants of that town, the Chancellor of the Exehequer delivered an address of thanks, much to the same purpose as that at Ding wall, but somewhat more discursive in its range of remark. The first places were here also assigned to laudations of the company present, the Ministerial corps, anti our "recent commercial policy." Mr. at.PaetToNt.: then proceeded to prognosticate a long snecession of triumphs for that policy in other countries:— •• What was once lout an opinion of philosophers in their closets, spread from one etas% to another. occupied the minds of statesmen, 'obtained the voice of Parliament, took the force 01 Ism, is now the flied policy of England, and reigns enthroned its the sanction and heart of the count►"•. And let ►ue add the expression of an anticipa tory hope that the end of its triumphs has not yet Will leached. of England is of mighty fusee. tier example has had innels to do in persuading tile other issitioMS of E1111.0)1 , that in a restrictive eonitstercial code there was some magical 51 . 1 . 114 of national wealth and lour• perity. ltnt the delusion once rejected by as will not be long maintained by them; the empliatie testimony to the advantages of free commerce, which the triumphant moults of a full and unsparing application of its principles has yielded here, will work its way among the intelligent people of the continent. producing a similar• develooptnent of plenty and blessing among them: mutual intercourse sill be ►el•sua v d, and the benefits which collie in the trail' of increased co l • •atios and augmented wealth will Mils be Willi'': great sos•ial and moral aims which 'oe desire to Sol' pronto doll will be helped onwards; the tone dewy to international strife• and war will be repressed : and, if we do not thus realise all the blessings which I ',iris tianity promisee to mankind, many of these evils • valid' must seriously hinder their itolvaisec. will be taken out of the way. (bald shone. 1.. Still treating of foreign countries. Mr. Gladstone bestowed some rs'!reis upon the evil results which had followed the democratic outbreaks of Is4s, and the reaction that had set in, especially in Italy, await o.t the eanse of liberty. Ile then alluded to the existing and troubled state of foreign attain : At present we cannot speak with satisfaction of fore km polities. lola well know that causes are operative which ►hreaten Ihr pe•nee of Europe. 1 trust yon also know. and are well persuaded, that the most anxious efforts of the British Goveniment have deer directed towards the main• tcnauce of general peace. and the protection of those who want strength to protect themselves. (Cheers.) No assur ance from the to this effect is wanted. for the temper and attitude of the p•opb h a ve shown how thoughtfully they confide in their rub r.. and how onxions they are for the maintenance of peJer combined with honour. The time is happily past when an ignorant eagerness for war could take nossession of the masses of the community. We do not fail to profit by the lessons of history, though after forty years of peace, when must of u. have grown up with ont any actual esperieuce of the Mk of a do; of war. at may THE PRESS. be Mitt to forget their nutulavr and inaptitude.
