THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE._ It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious article of animal diet first made its appearance ; and already its celebrity is world-wide. It has been a subject of wonder, .and has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been brought about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts Concerning the food, our wonder will cease. A few days since, gentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a perfect bag of bones." He tried all kinds of things to get the animal into condition, but in vain. He then bought some of r Thorley's food; and he says the effect was wonderful. The norse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weeks had gained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agri cultural shows at Birmingham, Cardiff, &c., the animals which carried off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thor ley's food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we are forced to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely from its own intrinsic merits, and the great demand for it can Proceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those Who have tried it. All parties interested in horses and cattle do well to apply to 77, Newgate-street, London, for a Pamphlet which is sent post-free.

It would be strange to see Vesuvius again overwhelm the towns whieh have been built on the rubbish which buried Herculaneum."

[ADVERTISEMENT]. —Holloway Pills and Ointment. — For all skin diseases, hewever inveterate, these medicines are a sovereign remedy. 'While the Ointment passes through the pores of the skin, as water saturates the soil, or as salt penetrates meat, the Pills act upon the blood, which they correct and purify; the whole physical ma chinery is thus rendered, healthy, regular, and vigorous. The cure thus effected is not partial and temporary. The disease is entirely and fot ever driven from the system, and the patient need not be apprehensive of its return. As these medicines have no violent action they do not necessi tate any interruption of ordinary avocations. They are composed of rare balsams, and may safely be given t o young children and delicate females, r c' Ao• Is 5d 8s 3a irket.) Ld. MR. TUPPER'S NEW WORK.

ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ; with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De bility of the Generative system, er Sexual Hypochrondriasis. Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD. " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying-bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fear ful consequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Manhood, and prematurL decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condi tion, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health happiness, and privileges to which every human being ....- titled. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there arc principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self indulgence, how those penalties may be• mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

The official returns of the late_ elections are gra dually coming in from the provinces. A comparison of the total number of electors with the numbers which actually polled might seem a flat refutation of all that has been said about the general interest aroused by the occasion. An average cannot be struck till all the returns are before me, but the following are some specimens taken at random :- GOVERNMENT DISTRICT, COSLIN (PROVINCE PORE- RANIA.) Electors. , . • Polled.

Second ditto Third ditfci For Berlin I have .sent you the figures before, and thefgive, taking the three classes together, 43 per cent. of the constituency as haying exer cised their suffrage in the capital, where the parti cipation was most liiely. In the district of Potsdam (environs of Berlin) the percentage of those who polled is not higher than 21 per cent. of the whole constituency. Were we to draw our conclusions from figures alone, we should be disposed to think that general indifference, rather than excitement, was the pre vailing disposition of a population in the enjoy ment of universal suffrage. Such a conclusion, however, would not be warranted by the real facts. We must measure the interest taken in the election by the proportion of the electors who voted rather than of those who stayed away. Political sympa thies cannot exist without education and intelli gence. An ignorant town mob may have its passions worked upon, and may take a most demonstrative part in public policy, without understanding any thing of the question at stake. But in Prussia, where demagogueism and electioneering agitation coeuris that those masses se of political dis lections. The elections, cw d u s s o h o oh t n e dd x po i s nn t , 00 tt the vfoo lt c leo o w n a t s e tt q hh u ee e n ee therefore, are pretty much in the hands of the edu cated and intelligent. The interest awakened is that of sympathy and intellect, not that of blind pas sion. The stimulants of drink, bribery, and stump oratory are totally wanting. That portion of the electors who have exercised their suffrage have shown sufficiently how deep is their interest in the affairs of the country by the inconveniences, the loss of time, and the distant journeys to the polling-places which they have been subjected to, the courage with which browbeating Landrathe have been confronted, and the thousand impedi ments overcome, which the old system purposely threw in their way. I may deceive myself, but the real representation of the people appears to me to be attained under the present Prussian system as nearly as is practicable under the circumstances. It is much more the real expression of the national will than if a much larger proportion of voters was brought to the poll by artificial indgeetnents—by the orders of the Prefet, or the money of the can didates. We must not, indeed, assume, even of that small percentage of the constituency which has exercised its right of suffrage, that it has done so with any very accurate political insight. What exactly isthe significance of the late election—what wishes and hopes the country intends An express by its vote— in an object of much anxious speculation. The pro vinces have very unanimously spoken ; this one hears most variously interpreted. In England we are accustomed to regard a general election as a vote of confidence or the reverse in the Ministry. Many persons accordingly write and speak of the late Prussian election as if it meant the same thing , but, except in Berlin and some of the large towns, where the character and position of public men are pretty correctly estimated, this is much more than can be assumed. Not to speak of the Polish province, where German papers do not penetrate, in many remote country districts it was hardly known at the time of the election in the first instance who the new Ministers were, or if there were any. Even if this was known, who shall say that the votes of the farmers and peasant pro prietors meant more than loyalty to the Regent, the brother of the King, who had called certain men into his service, and whom, as his servants, it was the duty of all good Prussians to support ? Between this blind loyalty of the least instructed part of the voters and the close scanning of the personal cha racters of public men, which is brought to bear in Berlin, there are infinite shades and gradations of insight and appreciation. To combine these into one general expression would be impossible. It must certainly not be assumed that the country meant to express a positive approbation of the policy of the new Cabinet, when no one knows what that policy is likely to b. As in politics it is always easier to say what we do not wish than what we do, it might be safe to say that the coun try meant plainly enough to decide against the potty aristocracy (Junker party). The good Bauer who knew nothing of the Prince of Hohenzollern or Von Auerswald, knew what the rights of chase and exemptions from land-tax were, and that he had a personal interest to protect there. The Kreuz Ritter were never weary of repeating that, however radical might be the corrupted and disaffected po pulations of the towns, yet that they knew they were backed up by the " sound" country peasantry. Now that in all the provinces, even in loyal Pome rania, in Gumbinnen, under the very eyes of their own President, Von Byern, the Landrathe have been everywhere turned adrift, the Stinker routed, and a new class of men chosen, we can never again be told that the feudal party have the goodwill of the agricultural classes. The real nation (das wahre yolk), who were always held in terrorent over the towns has now spoken out for itself, and it appears that it is quite as little disposed to stand at the back of the squirearchy as the tradesmen and artisans themselves are. The peasants wish to be the King's subjects, not the Yassals of the great proprietors. If the Feudal party is utterly beaten in the House of Deputies, it is not to be concluded that it is therefore powerless. The Second Chamber is very far from being the decisive field of battle here which our House of Commons is. It is im portant, but other things are more so. Flourishing as the prospects of the new Ministry seemed at first, it must not be supposed that their seat is a secure and easy one. Any wavering in the dispo sition of the Regent would seriously damage the triumph, which a little while ago seemed so com plete, of the Constitutional party. From whatever cause, the spirits of the Reactionary party are re covering. It is believed that extraordinay urgency is being used with the Regent to readmit into the Cabinet some of "the right sort." If liberal mea sures are all that is wished, no one is more ready and desirous to carry out liberal measures than one or two of the chief of the Manteuffelite set. The different fractions of the " Right" are holding , meetings here to concert their plans for the ap proaching session, ostensibly ; but they have much higher hopes than fora dreary opposition campaign in the Chamber. A fire of letters, too, is kept up from Italy, announcing the King's entire recovery, or his dissatisfaction with what is being done, or his speedy return. Even if these announcements are understood to be " pious" frauds, s certain amount of uneasiness must be produced by them. - Whatever may be the cause, it appears that there is a stoppage somewhere. The symptoms are, the constant reports of modifications in the Cabinet, in the Interior, or in the Trade Department, and tho , unaccountable delay in filling up the foreign dip. lomatic posts. - The nomination of Herr Balau to Stuttgardt is the only one• which has yet been made. • Some people, on the other hand, think that it is part of the policy of Ministers to sham weak ness in order to keep down the hopes of the ,Libet rals, and to prevent the Left from falling away from them ; and to coquet with the Right, in order to_ draw them into a false. position. All,. however, that can be safely affirmed is, that the Ministry, far from having it all their own way, have a very difficult part to play. We are in the middle of a little after-act to the elections. The 3d Berlin District elects to-mor row (Friday), and the 4th on Tuesday, in the places of Grabow and Mathis. The 24 re-electioni still to , be made are arranged on successive days, that there may be no more choosing the same can didate in several places. The Wahlmanner have *resumed their evening deliberations. In the 34 district the election of Stadtrath Duncker seemed assured till a, new candidate was started in, the person of Von Kirchmann, who made a strong _ impression upon the electors by a manly and prac.l tical Speech, in which he stated his views. Von . Kirchmann was formerly a President of the Court of Appeal, but retired' about three years ago into the country, and occupied himself with farmingl being a man of some property. He is one of th Left Centre, and voted in 1849 for the "-stoppage of the supplies" (Steurverweigerung). Though hd is thus classed with the " men of 1848," he places himself now on the ground of the Constitution, which he desires to see carried out in a liberal sense. He eipressly warned the electors against untimely pressure upon the Ministry at first. " The several Liberal fractions," he said, " were at pre. sent united. As long as things proceeded peace ably they would continue so ; stormy debates might divide them again." He thought it a measure of policy that some deniocratical members should be returned to the Chamber, on the principle that no party ought to be unrepresented. If Duncker had not preoccupied the field, it is thought Von Kirch mann would have been elected, but it is hardly likely now. In the 4th district Dr. von Tasmund, ex editor of the TVochenblatt, and now Director of the. Central Press Bureau, comes forward at the last moment. If some one else has not secured the ground, Dr. von Tasmund is likely to be elected. The place of August Reichensperger, at Dussel dorff, is filled up by the election of Dr. Hasen clever, also belonging to the Catholic fraction. On Tuesday evening a ball and evening assembly were given at the British Embassy by Lord and Lady Bloomfield in honour of the Prince of Wales. There were present his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, the Princess of Prussia, Prince Frederick William, and all the other members of the Royal family at present in Berlin ; his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, Prince August of Wurtemberg, the Prince of Hohenzollern, and all the Ministers of State, members of the Foreign Embassies, &c. It may interest your musical readers to know that Hans von Bulow, son-in-law and scholar of Liszt, has been appointed Hof-pianist (pianist to the Prince Regent).—Times. THE COMMISSARIAT. A royal warrant has recently been issued reor ganizing the Commissariat attached to the forces, substituting the following new rules, in pursuance of a report of a committee of officers, recommending alterations in the system existing up to the date of the warrant, the 28th of October last. Those parts of the Treasury regulations of the Ist of March, 1852, which prescribed rules for the admicsion of officers into the Commissariat Department, and for the employment, promotion, retirement, full-pay, _half-pay, retired-pay, designations.relative rank of such officers have been cancelled, and in lieu thereof the subjoined rules have been substituted : "1. The duties of the Commissariat shall be superintended and directed by an officer of that department, with the designation of Commissary- General-in-Chief, acting under orders from our Secretary of State for War. " 2. The ranks of Commissariat officers in our army shall be as follows, viz.:— " Commissary-General, " Deputy Commissary-General, " Assistant Commissary-General, "Deputy Assistant-Commissary-General, inclu-. ding a probationary class of Acting Deputy Assistant-Commissaries-General. " 3. To be eligible for promotion, an officer must have served on full-pay during the following periods, dating from his first entrance into the Pro bationary Class : " A Commissary-General, 13 years, and at least years thereof as Deputy Commissary-General. " A Deputy Commissary-General, 10 years, and at least two years thereof as Assistant Commissary- General. "An As iistant Commissary-General, five years. " 4. All first appointments to the Commissariat shall be made from the subalterns of our army, provided a sufficient number of qualified volun teers, duly recommended by their commanding officers, can be procured. Volunteers shall be of not less than two years' service as commissioned officers, and under 25 years of age ; they shall be subjected to an examination, and, if found compe tent, shall be placed on a li s t acco rding totliei r merits, and in their order thereon shall be employed by the Commissary-General-in-Chief, under the au thority of our Secretary o f St a t e f or W ar , as their services may be required. These volunteers shall be subjected to a probation of six months, with the rank of Acting Deputy Assistant-Commissary- General ; at the termination of which period, if found competent, and still willing to serve in the Commissariat, they shall be required to resign their military commissions, and shall be furnished in stead with commissions as Deputy Assistant- Commissaries. " 5. The establishment of the Commissariat shall be fixed from time to time on the same principle as that of our army ; and in order to furnish a rea sonable preparation for war, it shall be main tained to such an extent as to provide suitable employment in peace for officers, not only in the colonies, but also at the several camps and large military stations at home, according to the ordi nary requirements of the service. " 6. In selecting officers for promotion, provision shall be made for the advancement of those who have shown special aptitude for their duties, or have distinguished themselves by zeal and ability in the performance of them ; but such selection shall be mainly guided by length of efficient ser vice. The promotions in the Commissariat shall take place, as in other branches of the public ser vice, as vacancies may occur. " 7. On reduction of the establishment, the junior officers of the respective ranks shall be the first reduced, and on restoration to full pay the re duced officers who are senior in their rank shall be the first restored, except in cases in which a strict adherence to such rule would be manifestly detri mental .to the public service. " 8. In order to obviate the necessity for an un due augmentation of the establishment in time of war, and the consequent inconvenience arising from a large reduction on the termination of hostilities, 4 the Commissariat shall be allowed to avail itself of the temporary assistance that may be afforded by officers drawn from our regular army, or from the half-pay of our army, to be selected under regula tions which shall be framed for the purpose by our Secretary of State for War and our Commander-in- Chief, to act in the capacities of Assistant and Deputy-Assistant Commissaries-General. The offi cers of our army thus placed on the Commissariat staff shall be considered supernumerary in their regiments, retaining their proper places in their respective corps, and participating in regimental promotions as opportunities offer, but they shall be employed exclusively in the duties of the Commis sariat and shall not be at liberty to withdraw them selves from those duties, so long as their services promotion to tmhaeyrabnekroefq u fi i e r l e d d ,0 ffiexcept i their a ses regiments.f " 9. The relative rank of the Commissariat officers of our army shall be as follows, viz.:-- " Commissary-General, as Major-General, " Deputy Commissary-General of five years' standing, as Colonel. " Deputy Commissary-General, under five years' standing, as Lieutenant-Colonel. "Assistant Commissary-General, as Major. " Deputy Assistant Commissary-General, as Captain. Commissary-General Acting Deputy Assistant " 12. It shall be competent to our Secretary of State for War to place Commissariat officers on the retired list at the rates specified in the preceding scale, after a meritorious service of 20 years in the department as commissioned officers, including the period of service on probation, if, by reason of mental or bodily infirmity of a permanent nature, to be certified by a medical board, they shall be unfit for further duty ; and all officers shall be at liberty to retire after 30 years of such service. " 13. A roster shall be observed of home and foreign service, not to be departed from except in cases of necessity. With respect, however, to the West Coast of Africa, officers are to be allowed to volunteer, receiving such special pecuniary advan tages as may be fixed by our Secretary of State for War." * In case of military officers, to be made up, on confir mation, to 10s. a day, from the date of entering on their probation. A Commissary-General with an army in the field, to receive a special rate of pay, proportionate to the magnitude of his charge. as Lieutenant in the army • and their quarters and military allowances, including pensions for wounds, and allowances to their widows and families, shall be regulated accordingly. 10. The Commissariat shall be allowed to draw subordinates ' such as clerks, storekeepers, issuers, butchers, bakers, &c., from the soldiers of our army, to be maintained permanently on the Com missariat establishment, to the necessary extent. These subordinates, when they shall have been detached for a sufficient time on probation, shall be wholly withdrawn from their regiments ; but their names shall be retained on the rolls as super numeraries, in order that they may be sent back to their regiments or depots in case of mismanage ment or inefficiency. The individuals thus employed shall be employed, exclusively in the public duties of the department, and shall be -appropriately Clothed, and placed under the charge and' direction of the Commissariat officers wherever they may be employed, who shall be answerable for the discip line and regular payment of the men, whose places in their regiments shall be filled•up by rectuitS.

Steam was got up on Friday on board the screw steamship London, 90, at Keyham-yard ; her machi nery is reported to answer well. On Saturday she was placed alongside the sheer hulk ; and to-day, Monday, weather permitting, she will go outside. Plymouth Sound, and try her speed at the mea sured mile. It is reported that she is destined to take the flag in Ckina. The crew of the screw steam-sloop Curlew, 9, Commander William Horton, were paid off at Devonport on Saturday. Her marines were sent to Stonehouse barracks. Twenty-one tons of Government stores are ordered to be sent from Plymouth to Liverpool for conveyance to Cape Coast Castle. After remaining one week in Plymouth Sound, the dismasted troop-transport Bombay, Captain Flamank, was towed into Catwater on Saturday. It is understood that ker repairs will be completed in the Plymouth Great Western Docks. The Acadia, Captain T. Thomas, has arrived at Chatham with a cargo of Canadian timber and masts for the dockyard, and on Saturday com menced unshipping her cargo. Admiral Sir George F. Seymour, K.C.8., and Major-General Hon. J. Yorke Scarlett, K.C.8., had the honour of dining with her ,Majesty on Fri day evening. The Illustrious, 42, training ship, Capt. R. Harris, will be paid off at Portsmouth on the 31st inst., and the crew will be turned over to the Britannia, which will be commissioned by Capt. jt. Harris on the following day. The Himalaya, steam troopship, Commander J. Seccombe, will be under the hands of the engineer department at Portsmouth until the 21st. Owing to deficient discipline on board the screw steamship Russell, 60, Capt. H. A. Storey, the Lords of the Admiralty have been under the neces sity of taking her away from her station as guard ship of Coastguard at Falmouth, for the purpose of instituting official inquiry. In consequence of in structions from the Admiralty, the Port Admiral signalled the Russell, and on Thursday instructions were received from the Admiralty for holding a court-martial this day (Monday) on board the flag ship Impregnable, 104, Capt. W. 11. Stewart, in Hanmaze. The affair is exciting considerable inte rest among naval men and others. Mr. Lindopp, the quartermaster, will be brought from prison at Exeter to give evidence for the prosecution. The charges of Capt. Storey against Lieut. Hall are seven in number, and framed in very copious terms. The following is an epitonc: : " First.—Nov. 14.—Punished Michael Kennedy and Jesse Wybrow greater than was awarded by Capt. Storey. " Second.—Nov. 16.—Capt. Storey wrote, in de faulters' book, that punishments were not according to his orders. Lieut. Hall returned the list to the Master-at-Arms, and said, If the captain did not choose to punish the men he did not.' Contempt. " Third.—Sept. 6, 1858.—Punished Frank Le Montre ;10 days' leave stopped. Capt. Storey ordered this not to be done ; Lieut. Hall ordered double punishment. " Fourth.-L--Lieut. Hall did not enter this punish ment in the defaulters' book. _ . _ " Fifth.—Aug. 22.—Lieut. Hall shook his finger in Lindopp's face. " Sixth.—Oct. 27.—Behaved in an unofficerlike manner to Lieut. Osburn. " Seventh—Oct. 13—Behaved in an unoffieerlike manner to George Jones." The following appointments were made on Satur day at the Admiralty :—Lieut. T. Bullock, to the Nile; Lieut. T. W. Bennett, to the Orion; and W. H. De Burgh, midshipman, to Victor Emmanuel. THE ARMY. The East India troopship Marseilles, 1,130 tons, Commander Thompson, embarked the following officers andtroops from Custom-house quay, Graves end, on Saturday, for Calcutta. The r einforcements were made up of draughts from the depot batta lions at Chatham, Canterbury, Maidstone, Colches ter, Winchester, Pembroke, Jersey, Stirling, Perth, and Cork. The following were the officers who embarked—viz., Captain F. A. Astley, 6th Dra goon Guards"; Captain D. S. Miller, 67th Rep , 31st R . egiment • ment; Lieutenant G. N. Pepper., Lieutenant T. Lloyd, 35th Regiment ; Lieutenant A. 0. Tabuteau, 93d Highlanders ; Cornet J. Brad ford, 9th Lancers ; Ensi g n H. S. Williams, sth Fusiliers ; Ensign C. B. Crease , Bth ‘ RRegiment; Ensign T. P.

A very handsome silver goblet, richly chased, has been presented by the non-commis ;ion& d officers of the 2d Battali on o f I n f an try at Chatham garrison to Colour-Sergeant Joseph M'Carraher, 61st Regiment, on the occasion of his retirement from that corps, having been appointed to the South Devon Militia Regiment. The testimonial was pre sented to Sergeant M'Carraher, in the pr: Bence of nearly all the non-commissioned officers of the bat talion, by Sergeant-Major H.

The vacancies created by the departure of the numerous draughts constantly despatched for servicein India are readily supplied by recruits who have for some months past joined in large numbers, a great majority of whom are found to be of a class of men superior to the or dinary grade formerly existed, the ages ranging from 17 to 30 years. The good conduct of some of these men having been brought under notice of their commanding officers, - notwithstanding Mei. short term of service, only five or six weeks, they werea, few days ago rewarded with the first step in pro motion—namely, a good service stripe. Private George Drower, 81st Regiment, who a short time since deliberately shot off his right leg at St. Mary's Barracks, Chatham, in order.to obtain his discharge from the service, has since died at the garrison hospital from the effects of the injuries he inflicted on himself. MR. BRIGHT ON TIIE NEW 12,EFORM BILL. Mr. Bright's speech at Manchester may be ,aken as a sufficient answer on the part of the manu facturing -middle class to the anti-Reform declara tion at Kidderminster of Mr. Lowe. If Chartism had an orator, the appropriate reply would come of cmirse t•om him: The . blind and reckless spirit of oligarchical - resistance tends inevitably - to provoke an equally reckless and- blind spirit of exaction. Insult is oftener the parent of violence thaii injus tice, and many a noble-hearted but busy and good natured artisan, who has hitherto given himself little trouble about the wrongful exclusion of his class from a fair share in the privileges of citizen ship, will be moved by the arrogance and folly of language like that of Mr. Lowe to ask how much longer -the present system of exclusion ought to be quietly endured. It behoves the head of the Party of Resistance to consider well before they again _put forward So indiscreet an emissary. When in office this same right honourable gentlemiiii, — bra - similar display of his entire want of judgment, tact, and candour, plunged his friends into one of the deepest sloughs, from which only Lord Palmerston's great dexterity could extricate them. In his ruth less zeal to carry the only bill of any consequence he was ever entrusted with, he undertook to brow beat and bully a Conservative House of Commons into admitting certain raw and random notions about corporate property, and succeded merely in leaguing against himself and his colleagues an overwhelming maiority, consisting of men of all parties. His latest exploit would probably be attended with no less striking results if it were not duly followed up in the same temper and tone, and if the inorganic mass of popular discontent were as easily acted on as various sections of the Legislature. Were we the advocates of subversive change, and the enemies of safe and temperate progress, we might hail with pleasure the undiscerning violence which confounds municipal with manhood suffrage, and argues that if the sober, loyal, and educated householders of the kingdom were enfranchised, we should thereby "break with the past," and enter on a course which all the " bright intellects of history" would have disapproved. The names of Mr. Fox and Earl Grey are, with matchless temerity, especially relied on by the future ex-member for Kidderminster. Without deigning to notice directly the misrepre sentation, Mr. Bright quotes, with accuracy, the recorded opinion of both illustrious statesmen in favour of household suffrage. It so happens, more over, that embalmed in the eloquence of Mr. Fox is a passage from Glanville, one of the oldest and most learned of the constitutional authorities we are abjured not to discard. " I think," said Mr. Fox, "that to extend the representation to house keepers is the best and most justifiable plan of re form. I think also that this is a perfect recurrence to first principles. It is the opinion of the cele brated Glanville that in all cases where no par ticular right intervenes the common-law right of paying scot and lot has the right of election in the land. This was the opinion of Glanville, and of one of the most celebrated committees of which our Parliamentary history has to boast, and this, in my opinion, is the safest line of conduct you can adopt." Such are the memorable words of Charles James Fox—the leader of all who did not turn renegades and courtiers among the Whigs of other days ; and this was said in Parliament upon a motion made by Mr., afterwards Earl Grey, to give the fran chise to all registered householders. Far from laying himself open, however, to the imputation of his anti-reform critics that he dreams of electoral levelling, Mr. Bright hints very plainly that as far as he is concerned he would not refuse to take a .£5 rating franchise. He says with truth that this would admit a very considerable propor tion of the class which is now excluded; and it must be assumed that the portion so admitttd would be in general found to be the best educated and most thrifty and frugal it contains. 'What the numerical difference would precisely be between the aggregate constituency such a concession would give, and that which the heads of families through out the kingdom, dwelling in separate houses or distinct portions of houses, would supply, we have no sufficient data for determining. We see no ground to modify the opinion we have so often expressed, and which is sanctioned by numerous authorities beside those already cited, that every householding and ratepaying citizen should have a voice in the election of members to serve in Parliament. The ignorance or intolerance of faction may , in its ravings mistake or misname this for Americanism ; but history—that history with which we are pompously told not to break" —declares that while America was yet the Red Man's hunting-ground, and Lang before the Conser vatives and courtiers of the seventeenth century had driven men of English birth to seek therein " a refuge for soul liberty," this righteous law for which we plead was the recognised usage and cus tom of England. In seeking its revival and re enactment, therefore, we are but taking our stand upon the ancient ways of the constitution, and no amount of hardy misrepresentation or affected fear of reverting to the popular wisdom of our ancestors will be able to abate the calm but steadfast zeal with which the demand will be made until it is granted. We own we have less faith in the inductions of mere arithmetic than the eloquent member for Bir mingham appears to have. We thoroughly agree with him that the Lower House of Parliament as now constituted is more a house of Lords than a House of Commons, and that it does not, in point of fact or in the opinion of the country, adequately or fairly represent the people. But in our judgment this does not arise from the absence of equal electoral districts, nor would it be cured by any rigid fol lowing out of the statistics of population. We have no desire to see agricultural industry stripped of its ancient privileges for the sake of heaping super fluous representation upon the great towns ; nor would we denude the southern portions of the kingdom of Parliamentary rights to aggrandise the Prrliamentary power of the north. A moderate and reasonable re-arrangement of seat s i as any bill can possibly effect, and to . insist t as on m a u n ci ; wide or general redistribution as a si ne qua non would be merely to play the game of Marplot. Whatever may be our desire for a complete and perfect measure, we shall feel it our duty strenu ously to resist everything of the kind that tends to prevent the passing of a good franchise bill next session. No man shall persuade us that half a political loaf is not a deal better than no political bread. Nobody can persuade us, in the face of all observation and experience, that by taking a large concession of one sort when it is offered, we are disabling ourselves from obtaining another large concession which may be for the time withheld. Mr. Bright talks of electoral . re-distribution as in dispensable, and Mr. Milner Gibson would make the ballot a sine qua non. Both gentlemen ought to recollect how Free Trade was carried. In 1842 one half the articles "enumerated in the tariff were set free. Were they discouraged thereby, or did they relax th e i r e ff orts to emancipate the rest ? On the contrary, they persevered, and in [845 the principle of Protection, having been once weakened, gave way again, and another vast schedule was torn from the volume. Did this extinguish the cry for complete Free-trade ? Far from it. The very next year the greatest of all the monopolies was vanquished and taken. And so it may be in the legislative progress of reform, Whatever is in itself • sound and right is worth taking whenever and whencesoever we can get it—first for its own sake, and next for the enhanced power it confers of get ting other things that are sound and good.—Daily News. ,1 A [cnvEnTisEmENT.]]—Rarey's Horse and Cattle Improv ing Food is equallnadapted to improve the stamina of ill conditioned Horses, Cows, Bullocks, Calves, Sheep, and Pigs.
