MR. Gz.►neroxs has addressed at Chester, on behalf of his son, a constituency of very different composition from that whose suffrages he asks for himself. Cheater, it seems, retains a body of free men in its electoral lids which opens the franchise to 900 working men, or very nearly a half of the whole number of voters. And this constituency, being all resident in a single borough, has, and doubtless profited by, the opportunity of hearing with its own ears and applauding with its voice as well as with its vote. Oxford University includes no "working men," at least in the manual sense, and its members being to so large an extent non resident. their understandings must in great de. gree be reached by that colder channel of elo- quence which is found in written words. But, save in some incidents of manner and some peculiarities of local topic, the Cuaricxxxo• of the Exciesnrwe appeals to both in the same way. He avows with firmness his opinions, and he claims to be judged by his acts. He repeats in Chester, with only local application, the sentiment which be uttered to Oxford and the nation when in Parliament he declared that the measure of fitness for the franchise lay nob in property, but in intelligence and pelf diem. He points to the conduct of the Liberal party during not merely the period of the present Go. vernment, but the history of this generation, and declares that be belongs to the party by which so muck good has been done and so much evil re moved. And it is for both constituencies, as indeed it is for all, to decide whether they will select men whose opinions are thus approved by their acts, or whether they will choose repre sentatives who say indeed that they are not op posed to these principles, but who avow that they still belong to the party which bitterly opposed every measure by which these principles were vindicated. Pleading for his son, this is indeed all that Mr. GLADSTONE can say. That young gentleman ;+ not as yet, save by birth and by choice, associated with Liberal policy. But Mr. GLADSTONE, with perfect justice, put in a claim for him founded on his youth itself. It is quite true that the aboli tion of rotten and nomination boroughs has been attended with the disadvantage of placing a diffi culty in the way of young men of ability, willing to devote their lives to the science of politics, find ing • seat in the House of Commons. The diffi culty has been frequently made the subject of remark, and various ingenious devices have been suggested, by Earl GREY and others, for obviating it. But the simplest plan of all is now in the power of the Chester constituency. It does not appear that that borough has the happiness of prc ducing any citizen of its own with overwhelming claims to the honour of representing it. It might, therefore, wisely accept a young man come of so sound a stock, in the hope that he wi'l some day become a distinguished man, who will pay back the honour it now does him. And even if he should not ultimately rise to the height of his father's genius, it can scarcely be that with his training he will not do the country service and Cheater credit. For as the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER justly remarked, the House of Commons already contain• a very ample representation of business; in terests and business habits of mind. It crowded with railway directors, merchants, manufacturers, landowners, military men, and barristers. But it has far too few of those who, having sympathies with all but not over powering interest in any of these avocations, can devote themselves to the business of states manship fur its own sake ; a profession not less arduous than any other, not leas absolutely demanding devotion of the whole time and whole mental powers, not to be picked up suddenly by those who have already spent a lifetime in other pursuits, but yet one of the greatest and most important, because one essential to the prosperity and greatness of our common country. So for Mr. GLADSTONE the younger, &put from anything he has done, apart even from the question of what party be is to ally himself to, we should have a good wish in this his entrance into the profession of politics, sure that, even without genius, industry, firmness, and honesty will be able to render service to the State in that pnr..lit all the more if untrammelled with the cares of other avocations. But depending at present necessarily on his father's merits, it will be after all by his father's opinions that he will be judged. And Chester is already distinguished in that it has been the means of drawing out more explicitly the opinions of the future leader of the Liberal party. Since Mr. GLADSTONE last spoke on Reform the question has made progress. A certain proportion of those who professed it have indicated their concealed fear and dislike by the suggestion of plans for neutralising while granting it. Another section, more candid, has confessed its fear and dislike openly, and has voted against it. Mr. Grannotrx sympathises with neither. He accepts the idea of a " lateral " exclusion, but does not the less aban don his demand for • " vertical " extension. Hs has no mistrust of the working men. He has sat for a working man's constituency, and has found by experience, worth • thousand times the ugeat theories, that working men would not vote u " a " class," or " set up a separate interest." Therefore he is in favour of a liwilisesilinion of qbtifing to the franchise. He dim net desire to go too fat. He says that his "Witte :go salty end steadily. But he avows hip re lis that the &A and lot con stituencies hays been *Wished, di perhaps would be fair to translate this into modern phraseology by saying that he would approve a borough rating tranships. These are expressions which are of good omen to the Liberal party and the country. They show that Mr. Gr.aceroza's mind is still progressive, and that he is ready to accept in full enmity those modifications of his former opinions which the growth of the popular intelligence, and power of self-control, suggest, and he is well en titled to take some personal credit to himself for that growth. The French treaty saved us from a collapse of trade which might have been more than we had strength calmly to bear. The fiscal im provements which he has beenthe means of carry ing into effect have increased prodigiously the phyalcaloomfort and well-being of the people. Tf e facilities he has offered for prudent economy by means of the post-office savings banks, and for making a provision for children, or for old age, by means of the post-office insurance arrangements, have shown his anxiety to aid the moral improve ment of the population, and have heppay elicited the strongest evidence of the popular confidence in Government, and of the wide-spread desire to achieve independence in its best sense. These are the measures for which Mr. GLADSTONE is personally entitled to praise, and it is not too much to say that they are almost the only measures of domestic policy by which the present Adminia tastion will be known in history. It I. of course only graceful in Mr. Gransrons to allude to the past services of his colleagues. But the burden of the present and of the future lies on his shoulders. And as the present and the future are what we have to provide for, and what in the ensuing election we must chiefly contemplate, it is well for us that we can draw some assurance of Mr. GLAASTONK'S course from his own more recent sots.

The Emperor is coming to Paris sooner than he had intended—no doubt on account of the serious aspect of affairs. The orders for his reception at Toulon on the 10th are oountermanded, and he is looked for on the 7th at Paris. The papers are ordered to say there is no truth in the report that General Bourbaki is going out to Mexico at the head of a corps of 10,000. This contradiction does not exactly meet the rumour which was in circulation, %is., that 0,000 men were to be sent to reinforce the Mexican army. It is quite oertaia that many move than that number are wanted if France means to keep Maximilian on his throne. Even the Courrier des Etats Geis, which is almost as much a French journal as if it ware published in Paris, admits that 40,000 men, instead of 15,000, would be required to put down the " Juarist bands."

Mr. Brownlow North delivetad one of a eyries of religions addresses at Willies Rooms, a few days ago. Though apparently unconnected with any special institution or incorporated society, these meetings are in reality a portion of a great whole, being neither more nor less than another develop ment of that revivalist movement which is still making itself felt in various of London. Differing widely in their surrouncli i i i i r gi ti i, in the ability they display, and in the results they are able to show, the promoters of the gatherings we refer to are alike in ruling motive, similar in their indiffer ence to mere secular opinion, and identioal in spiritual aim. Mr. Brownlow North's addresses are so far exceptional that they are given at a fashionable hour, in a fashionable locality, and to fashionable people. The cards of invitation simply say, "At the request of several friends, Mr. Brownlow North has consented to deliver , addresses at Willis's Rooms," without giving any hint as to their subject matter being of a religious character , save that supplied by the speaker's name. beee cards are only sent to people whore names figure in the "Court Guide ;" and it is confessedly that the upper classes may receive the spiritual instruction so freely accorded to those below them, that such meetings are held. Observers who were aware that Mrs. Thistlethwayte's Sunday ministra tions at the Polytechnic have attracted many of the aristocracy, over and above the respectable middle-class men and women, who rather than the very poor seem to make up the bulk of her congregation—that prompted by curiosity, or a higher motive ? members of the government, in cluding a cabinet minister, clergymen, noblemen, and ladies of title, as well as notabilities is the worlds of letters and of art, have been among her auditory, and who hastily inferred therefrom that the bigner classes of this country would eagerly flock to a service designed solely for their spiritual benefit, were proballly somewhat disappointed at the aspect of Willis's Rooms at the lecture of Mr. North. The absentia of male bearers was marked, and the ladies filling the bench's seemed to be rather of the class already "called "—to employ the conventional phraaeologf—than the hardened unrepentant sinners to whom Mr. North's powerful denunciations and able appeals were particularly directed. I Quite ninety-five per cent, of those present were females, and had little to distinguish them from a mixed assembly drawn together for a more mundane purpose. The two fair hearers who brought their crochet-case , midget r!aeidly at work up t,', the very moment of Mr. North's appearance on the platform, aptly symbolised that desire to make the best of both worlds which is so difficult to eradicate even from purified human nature ; while the nods of critical approval perceptible in other quarters whenever a portion of especially strong spiritual meat was given out proved the doc trines heard to be familiar, and that their enunciation occasioned reither amazement nor dismay. Indeed it was impossible to avoid the conclusion that to the majority of those present the typical sinner so vigorously denounced was the sinner of the parks, the streets, the clubs, the mansions, and the shops around, and an altogether distinct personage from the sinner who attends religious meetings without entering into their spirit, or who hsa the phrase ology of Christianity on the lip, without its tenets and teachings influencing the actions or touching the heart. This must have been so, or the thrilling exhortation could never have been borne so pla cidly. Mr. North is familiarly spoken of as an " awakening " preacher, audit is only fair to say be is fully entith d to the adjective. Steering be tween the wild extravaganoe of a Habakkuk Biro klewrath on the one hand, and the faustical denunciatiou of a Balfour of Burley on the other, be calmly puts forward a proposition, and sake his . hearers to follow it to its legitimate conclusions. Men and c omen must die, after death the judg ment, and after judgment endless torment or eternal blies. Such are his leading statements, the novelty being that they are delivered with the prac tised ease of a man of the world, who knoas what is called IK 3iety, its weakness and its strength, and who deliberately runs counter to its customs, because he believes the salvat'on of souls to be of higher importance than the canons of etiquette. There was no singing at this weekday service, and after offering up with feeling a commendably short prayer, Mr. North gave out this toxt from the Epistle to the Epliesisns :—" That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the com monwealth of Israel, and strangers from the cove nanta of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world." The question between the people present and God, commenced the preacher, was whetber they would believe what their own reason, learning, and sense told them, or whether they would believe what God himself bad said in the Bible. And this opening statement formed the keynote to the sermon. The practical atheism of the unreflecting churchgoer, of the man or woman who joins Sunday after Sunday in the liturgy with out really caring for the things they profess to seek, was strongly, almost fiercely, denounced. The parable of Dives and Lazarus was brought forward to show that contentmen, in our station, unless it be subordinate to our love for God, is in itself a heinous sin, while the rch man's cry to "Father Abraham " was quok d to prove the first prayer for intercession ever made to a saint to have come up from bell. Those present were warned that if they did not feel the want of God it was just as a corpse did not feel it, and the realistic view taken of biblical truth was well shown by the argument that Dives had endured the torment for 1,800 years, and would endure it for all time, as if 1 e were a real instead of an allegorical personage. Although it would be very unfair to quote the preacher in Crabbe's "Borough"— " We're pardoe'd ?either for belief nor deed, For faith nor practice, principle nor creed ; Nor for our sorrow foe our former sin, Nor for our fears when better thoughts begin ; Nor prayers we pelisses in the rause avail, All sweet remorse, all soft eostritiou fail ; It is the call! till that proclaims us free, Is darkness, doubt, and bondage we must be ; Till that means us, we're ui vain endured, And all is over when we're once assured." as accurately representing the tenets put forward in Mr. North's sermon—it must be said that occasional touches in it brought the quotation forcibly to mind. Of the energy and sincerity of the preacher it would be difficult to speak too highly, and the one matter for regret was that more of the class for whom his exhortations were obviously meant were not present. Mr. North's avowed belief that p- ople of his own station need reformation and repentance to the full as much as the poor pariahs and outvote for whom special services are held must command sympathy and respect for its honesty and downrightness. Further, if an earnestness which at times becomes almost painful in its intensity ; if a faith which believes in its mission and rises superior to external circumstances —a faith which casts bread upon the waters, and seed upon stony ground, with the utmost confi dence in results ; if an obvious purity of purpose, and a steadfastness of belief which knows not hesi tation, and will not listen to doubt—if any or all of these qualifications fit a man for the task of making proselytes, assuredly Mr. North's labours should be crowned with success. His great difficulty, as it seemed to us on the occasion referred to, lies in the thick crust of indifference through which he is en deavouring to pierce, an indifference which asserts itself by neglecting his invitations. Major Pentlen nis repeating the responses with much unction, and always attending church when in the country, because he considers it his duty to society, is after all a far more difficult subject to deal with spiritually than Nancy or Bill Sykes. The hard, selfish philosophy of the former gentleman is an almost insuperable bar to religious enthusiasm, while in the untrained rugged natures of the latter, words of kindness, peace, and mercy take root and fructify in a way incredible to all who are unacquainted with the results of London missionary effort. What would be the precise effect of Mr. North's "awakening" exposi tion bad it been delivered in the same room when some fashionable revel was at its height, or if it • were brought thoroughly home to the strollers in IPall-mall, was • perhaps pardaaable speculation, as with sin and punishment, death and damnation, heaven and hell, still ringing iu their ears, the little assembly passed out into the clatter, noise, and glare of the bustling pavement, to become rapkny merged l'ito the busy world.
