'"*.ra P.'• "" • , - The arrival of the China brings us important news from the 'United States, includine , the PRESI DENT'S Messag e and the meeting of the Congress. The Speech and the Assembly have alike been looked for with interest and expectation in this country as well as in America itself, and both have realised the conjectures formed respecting them, the Message of the PRESIDENT being as quiet and conciliatory as the opening of the new session was animated and exciting. The previous career of the PRESIDENT since his sudden accession to the highest office of the State has given encouragement to moderate politicians to believe that the policy indi cated in the Message would be that best adapted to restore the fortunes of America, and to preserve the pe ace o f both hemispheres. There were diffi culties enough to deal with to alarm any statesman but President JOHNSON is not a man who lacks courage. The reduction of the war establishment, both past and prospective, gi'res good earnest that he has no anxiety to plunge the country into another war, for whicU indeed its finances are verx ill pre- pared. Since the beginning of the year the navy has been reduced from 530 vessels, armed with 3,000 guns, to 117 vessels with 830 guns. So much has been already accomplished, but more is in tended, and the President tells us that he pro poses to reduce the army to a peace footing, comprehending 50,000 troops, organised to admit of an increase to 82,000 if necessary, while the war estimate has been reduced from $516,000,000 to $33,000,000. This is certainly an arrangement, no less prudent than necessary. It has long been the boast of America that the people were not taxed to support a standing army like the old European na tions, and unless she wishes to impose burdens which the people are quite incapable of sustaining in the present condition of affairs some very prompt measures arc necessary. She has proved her mili tary capabilities most conclusively, and to preserve a large force in time of peace would serve only as a defiance to other countries and a standing ground of suspicion and irritation which could only re-act most unfavourably on American affairs. Coming to the financial situation, the PRESIDENT recom mends the adoption of measures to reduce the cur rency and to discharge the national debt within 30 years. The reduction he aims at can, he thinks, be almost imperceptibly accomplished by funding the currency. The relations of the States with Foreign Powers occupied a good part of the Message, and English men will naturally turn with interest to learn what the PRESIDENT says of the vexed question of the Alabama claims. On this subject he must, of course, adopt some of the injured innocence and virtuous indignation tone so popular among his countrymen on all matters concerning the Britisher; but there is good reason to believe, from the PRE SIDENT'S language, that he means to follow the dis creet course of letting the matter drop. The accord ance of belligerent rights to the insurgents was, he said, unprecedented, and had not been justified by the issue. Certainly, if there is any country in the world in which success is the test of virtue, it is the United States, but we in England are not in the habit of considering it an infallible one. England, in a great measure, furnished the war material to the insurgents, and British ships, manned by British subjects, and prepared for receiving armaments, left British ports to prey on American commerce, and increased the desolation of the rebel States by prolonging the contest. But the PRESIDENT found it convenient to forget, though some, at least of his auditors could hardly have failed to remember the share which British subjects, British arms, and British ammunition had in the suppression of the rebellion. Certaintly the war was prolonged indi rectly by British aid, for the Federal Government would not have found it very easy to recruit their exhausted armies from their own countrymen, even the New Englanders finding it pleasanter to de nounce the rebels than to fight them. The real truth respecting the assistance derived from this country during the war is pretty well known, and the accu sations brought against this country are worth about as much as the charge of purposely encouraging the fitting out of the Southern privateers in order that English vessels might profit by carrying American goods. This charge, directly made and gravely substantiated, in the face of the losses inflicted on this country by the cotton famine, is little more than ridiculous ; but its perpetual repetition is not calculated to encourage an entente cordiale between the two countries. President JOHNSON, after re ferring to the proposed arbitration, said that the proposed commission to settle mutual claims, ex cluding the Alabama business, had, "in that very un satisfactory state," been declined. The United States, he added, did not present the subject as an impeach ment of the good faith of a Power professing the most friendly dispositions, but in the interests of peace and justice to establish important principles of in ternational law. At the same time he did not advise any attempt to redress the matter by negotiation, which was a hint to the Congress that they had better leave so delicate and dangerous a subject alone. The fact, no doubt, is that the PRESIDENT knows enough of the English temper, and has received sufficient information as to the public feelings in this country, with respect to the privateer claims, to be fully aware that he world be following a most rash and reckless course were he to press the com pensation question. He is unprepared for support ing his arguments by force of arms, even were it not suicidal folly to provoke a European contest, and therefore if he began to threaten he would very soon find himself in an undignified dilemma. With regard to Mexico the PRESIDENT'S language was also temperate. He declared it would be a great calamity to all parties if any European Power should challenge the American people to defend the cause of Republicanism against foreign interference, and while they were unwilling to consider what might drive them to such a course they relied upon the justice and wisdom of Foreign Powers to respect the system of non-interference. In the earlier part of the Message, the PRESIDENT spoke at length on his reconstruction policy ; and, alluding to treason, said that all persons charged with it should have a fair trial before a civil tribunal ; desiring, no doubt, that the long-deferred trial of JEFFERSON Davis should be decided upon, after which we may reasonably hope the PRESIDENT will exercise the privilege of mercy, and spare his country the disgrace of punishing one of her most eminent citizens. Mr. JOHNSON plainly intimates that the Southern members should be admitted to Congress, and this will be the great question of the Session. Already it has been brought forward, and considerable excitement has been manifested on the matter. The course taken by the Congress will be watched with great interest, and we can o nl y ho p e I that the principles of their Constitution will be respected, and that moderation and magnanimity will win the day. One thing is very certain, that whatever other social and d omest i c Government this next Scleusseisotnio,ntsheaimreponretagnletcmteadttebrys of the working of the poor law system and the management of our workhouses must come under con sideration. A paper,* which was read at the meeting of the National Association for the Promo tion of Social Science at Sheffield last October, is well worthy of attention just now. It has been repro duced in the form of a pamphlet, and one we would here confidently recommend to the study o f t h ose who are desirous of improving their knowledge on the subject, one alike so interesting and important as the welfare and comfort of our houseless and suffering poor. Many circumstances have of late come under the notice of the public which prove that much is wanting to perfect the system now in vogue, and also that much is taking place which never reaches the public ear, but yet which is most culpable in every respect. It is truly stated, here, that " the in sufficient and miserable provision for the casual poor in many places in London is but too well known, and becomes, as ar e all aware, the ground of constant appeals to private benevolence, the refusal of parochial rel i e f leading in some instances to actual death by star ' vation." Even the attempted improvement of the , recent legislative interference has in a great measure * The Administration of the English Poor Law." By Frederic Hill, Barrister-at-Law. 1, Adam-street, Adelphi Chambers of the Social Science Associa4 n. rETE SUN, LONVON, SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 16, turned out to be a failure, in consequence of the ex cuse so constantly made that the casual wards are full. And the inquiry just made into the state of the houseless poor in Bermondsey has proved that 142 applicants for admission to the work house had recently been turned away. No one can say that a system is successful which can sanction such anomalies as the pre sent poor law does. When we reflect upon the inconsistency of the order by the authorities at workhouses, counteracting the effect of the measure which has received legislative sanction, we must deplore and denounce the existing state of things. Mr. HILL declares, with perfect justice, that those are mistaken in their notions who consider it eco hnomical thus to cut down the number of the work house inmates, for " no being is so expensive to the State as a criminal at large, " the effect of the I arbitrary restrictions now in vogue being to drive many to the commission of crime. It is worthy of attention that a heavy tax is levied on the benevolent portion of the community, in consequence of their having in a great measure to supply the deficiencies created by the imperfect condition of our workhouse management ; and another evil accruing from this must be mentioned, that many persons trade upon the ignorance and mistaken generosity of others. It is seldom those who are really the most in want who obtrude them selves on the attention of alms-givers, and yet im mense sums are squandered on worthless individuals, while the deserving poor are sinking into decrepi tude and pining away through lack of that care which the State should exercise for the protection of its helpless subjects. What can be truer than the passage here met with concerning the chief objects which for the most part reign paramount in the minds of those who select the authorities at a workhouse—" the immediate saving of the parish funds, and the bringing down to the lowest possible farthing, of the next half-year's assessment !" Such ends are considered more worthy of attainment than the many important things which rightly belong to the responsible positions of master, matron, and medi cal attendant, who, as stated here, "did the subject admit of mirth, might often be supposed to be called from jocoseness, the relieving officer, a name to which he has about as good a title as those who appoint him have to that of Guardians of the Poor." The Lancet, which has recently appointed a Commissioner to inquire into the medical condi tion of workhouses, gives it as its opinion that no amelioration can take place while the Board of Guardians are so badly constituted. An inferior and uneducated class of small tradesmen compose the majority of these bodies. Such are described as " inconceivably petty, ignorant, and unfit to govern institutions of so much magnitude." Certainly the recent collision between the Board of Guardians at a Workhouse and the Poor-law Board, on the sub ject of admission of the vagrant poor to the casual wards, bears out the statement of the Lancet as to the faulty construction of these Boards of Guar dians, and leads us to inquire what steps should be taken to improve the position of affairs. In this pamphlet it is stated that too much power is vested in those who are not likely to know much of the matter, in appointing Boards of Guardians, and Mr. HILL proposes that the power of voting should be brought into " closer accordance with the amount of assessment," in order that a clearer knowledge may prevail among the majority of those who have the power of voting. It could do no harm to try this plan if it did no good ; and we question if any particular argument can be brought forward against it. It is an acknowledged fact that the poor do not meet with equal consideration from those a few degrees above them, as from those quite out of their sphere, but who have finer perceptions of the making of systems and a more accurate knowledge of the details which are so necessary to be ac quainted with. Some of the facts here mentioned are condensed into a summary, which is very well worthy of attention from the powers that be, as well as from the influential classes who atudy such sub jects. One of the conclusions cannot be gainsaid, and that is the one which affirms that the inhabi tants of a country which, like our own, grudgingly pays more than six millions a year in support of the poor, ought not, and, under a good administration of the poor-law and police would not, be harassed by beggars, and have their feelings outraged by authentic accounts of deaths from cold and hunger, and their lives and property endangered by the temptations to crime which ex posure to great misery creates." All this is strictly true, and it is a great scandal to society at large that the state of our poor-laws should be so defective, the management of our workhouses so extremely faulty, and the condition of our poor in many instances so deplorable. The aspect of affairs is, indeed, bad ; when it is no matter of surprise to any general reader of public news to take up a paper and find that another death has occurred in our streets from sheer starvation. It is high time for us to awake from our lethargy in this important re spect, and to pay that heed to the subject of the administration of the Poor Laws, which justice demands from us, and which humanity should long ago have led us to do in an efficient and effectual manner. " un- LATEST INTELLIGENCE. (RELTTER'S TELEGRAMS.) SPAIN. MADRID, DEC. 15. The Correspowlenria de Ecpano says that the Queen's health continues to improve. It is therefore probable that her Majesty will open the Cortes in person. 7he same journal states that the Ministers have not yet prepared the speech from the throne. MARSEILLES, DEC. 15 (Evening). The Messageries Imperiales steamer Peluse, with the Mauritius and Reunion mails, arrived here to day at 4.30 p.m. BELGIUM. INAUGURATION OF THE NEW KING OF THE BELGIANS. BRUSSELS, DEC. 15 (Evening). It has been officially announced that King Leo pold IL will take the oath to the Constitution before both Chambers at 12.30, on Sunday, the 17th inst. At 8 a.m. the ringing of bells and a salvo of 101 guns will notify the solemnity. At 10.30 the general staffs of the civic guard and army will form upon the Boulevard d'Anvers. The King will be escorted from the palace of Laeken by mounted civic guards and a body of regular cavalry. At the entrance to the capital his Majesty will be received and complimented by the Burgomeister at the head of the Communal council. The King's entrance into Brussels will be announced by a salvo of 101 guns. his Majesty will follow the route taken by the King on the 21st July, 1831. The civic guards and the troops of the garrison will be under arms in the streets through which his Majesty passes. The entrance to the Chambers will be occupied by the battalion of Chasseurs-Eclaireurs, a battery of artillery of the Brussels civic guard, and the wounded and decorated of September. After the oath has been taken their Majesties will return to the palace under a salute of 101 guns. blunder to allure a small country on by promises which we did not intend to perform. (Hear, hear.) No one wanted to go to war for Denmark, but if we did not intend to support her we should never have promised her any assistance at all. (Cheers.) They could not but regard the present state of affairs in the country as eminently prosperous. The revenue was increasing, and while the exports of the country had amounted to £200,000,000 ster., the savings of the people had amounted to nearly £100,000,000. In such a state of prosperity it was for the Govern ment of the country to show what they would do in the forthcoming Parliament—whether great organic changes were, in their opinion, necessary, or whether the more even tenor of our way was to be continued —ameliorating our institutions where necessity re quired, but not making those radical changes which at the same time that they might shake the consti tution would not do for those who brought them the good they expected. He felt certain that the pre sent Government would receive that fair and just treatment from all parties which any Government was entitled to receive so long as they did that which the country required. At the same time he felt equally sure that if, for party purposes or for retaining power, they did that which the country did not think necessary, Parliament would at once reject them, and the country would ratify the rejec tion. (Cheers.) With regard to recent affairs inJa maica, he asked them asEnglishrien and honourable men never to judge of men until they had the whole facts of the case before them. In this case they had men sent out from the country to uphold the honour and dignity of the Crown and the country, and if those men were not to be supported till they were found guilty where could they ex pect to find men who would undertake such respon sible positions ? To say that such men were to be written or talked down, or that the Government were to give in to a cry, was to say that no man who might be traduced by others was to be safe at home, where of all places he ought to be supported. (Cheers.) He, for one, earnestly hoped that Go vernor Eyre and those who were accused with him would come well out of the matter. A searching inquiry was about to be instituted. That ought to be sufficient for us, and if the Government did not do its duty in the matter it was to them we had to look without taking upon ourselves the task of try ing individuals. (Cheers.) " The Health of Mr. Fitzgerald" was then pro posed by Colonel BAnTrELoT, who expressed a hope that it would not be long before he again found his way within the walls of the House of Commons. Mr. SEYMOUR FITZGERALD, in responding, said he had long occupied the double position of president of that association and member for Horsham. He regretted that he was unable to appear before them in that double capacity on the present occasion ; but, in all good humour, he could assure his hon. friend who now represented the borough that he in tended to take the earliest opportunity of occupying that double position again. (Laughter and cheers.) The hon. gentleman referred to the cattle plague. He said—l differ very much from the opinions which have been expressed that nothing more could have been done by the Government. My opinion is that they did not appreciate the gravity of the position and the heavy responsibilities which devolved on them. We had first an Order in Council giving certain directions ; that was soon after supplemented by an order altering the first order ; that in its turn was succeeded by another adding to the first order ; next came an order explaining the former orders ; and so it has been going on until I do not know how many orders in Council there are existing, and I defy any man, unless he has an acute legal train ing, to say what is or is not the effect of the various orders on which the magistrates are called upon to act. I think, also, that a great mistake was made in the first instance in the course taken with regard to the local authorities. I have always been averse to see the powers of Government centralised. It is contrary to the spirit of our institutions. I think the great safeguard we have is that every man should take part in the local administration of local affairs. lam not one of those, therefore, -who like to see the local authorities excluded from the ad ministration in affairs of this kind, and I think that Government ought to have adopted a much more comprehensive system at first than they did, and that they ought to have instructed the local authorities with the duty of carrying the system out. The disease ought to have been met in the first instance by the most vigorous measures of re pression ; but, at the same time, I have always been of opinion that where private property is sacri ficed for the public good the loss ought to be met by the public Exchequer. (Cheers.) I am told that there are great difficulties in the way, and that it would open the door to fraud as well as throw a heavy burden upon the State. But it would not be half as heavy a burden as the risk of having this dangerous malady spread over the whole country. If the Government found their powers insufficient, they ought to have called Parliament together. It is one of the most vital and important questions that has been brought before a British public of late years, and it was a subject wellworthy of the consideration and meeting of Parliament. As to the measures that may be necessary, I am very much afraid that what would have been effective a few weeks ago will not now be sufficient, and that we shall find we are shutting the door after the steed is stolen. As soon as Parliament meets I have no doubt that measures will be adopted of the most vigorous kind, with a total disregard of private profit or advantage. (Hear, hear.) Passingfrom that topic there have been other questions of public in terest adverted to this evening, and I think it has always been permitted at this table, so long as we did not trespass upon the domain of politics, and offend the wishes of those present, to speak can didly on public affairs. It would be ridiculous to suppose, in this free-thinking and outspoken country, that 150 men could be brought together and induced to shut their eyes and mouths in regard to the great public questions. I think, therefore, that I may be allowed to venture a few observations on that - which is the great public question of the day. We are told that we are to have a change in the system of representation, and a great deal has been said by a distinguished public speaker as to the de merits, the failings, and almost the crimes of one great party in the state in reference to that measure. We are told that what Mr. Bright calls the Tory party have always been averse to all those great questions which for some years past have been car ried, and which have advanced the prosperity and welfare of the country. In his speeches he is con stantly quoting to us the example of America. I am one of those who regard with the greatest ad miration the system which has been pursued in America, the efforts they have made in the direc tion of self-government, the enormous extension of education, and the position which that republic has been enabled to take in the councils of the world. (Cheers.) There is no man more willing to tender a meed of admiration to the course pur sued by the American nation than I am—Tory as I am, and as Mr. Bright chooses to call me. But what will suit a new country with new institutions, which they began to build up from the foundation, will not suit a country where the interests are so complicated, where the institutions that exist are so interwoven in the heart and feeling of the nation, as in this country. (Cheers.) What suits the one will not suit the other, and it is impossible to reason by any method of analogy whatever, from the suc cess of the institutions of America that the same success would attend similar institutions here. (Cheers.) Now, as regards the abuse which has been thrown on one great party in the State by the distinguished speaker I have alluded to, we have this great consolation, that although he now abuses us, it is only a few months since he abused our opponents just as much. (Laughter and cheers.) There is not one single word of reproach, of con tumely, and of condemnation which he now throws upon us which only a few months ago he did not as unsparingly and emphatically lavish on those whom he now calls his friends. (Laughter,) What do I argue from that? Why, that he thinks it is desir able in the present instance to give his full support to a Government that will bring in a reform bill, be it wide or not, because he is determined to take whatever he can get, with a view, upon the very first occasion, of getting more. (Hear, hear.) I be lieve there is not one man I now address who does not feel that with regard to these great constitutional Native Literature in India. (From Galignani's Messenger.) We find several curious facts concerning the intellectual state of India at the present moment in M. Garciri de Tassy's inaugural lecture, which is now printed. After stating that the dialect more particularly called Hindoostanee or oordoo, which is composed of Hindee, Persian, and Arabic, is likely to become the reigning dialect of India, owing chiefly to the influence of railways, the dis tinguished professor informs us that no less than seventeen new periodicals printed in Hindoostanee have this year been added to the already existing ones, and that most of these new journals have appeared in provinces where none existed before, such as, for instance, the Punjaub, Oude, and even Afghanistan. Most of them are in oordoo, but a few are in Hindee, which is the old dialect of the country. The Agra Law Journal is pub lished both in English and in oordoo ; and the students of medicine at Lahore have got up a scien tific periodical, called the Panjabi. There has also been a vast number of new publications : among them Bagavat Allalwa, being a detailed account of the insurrection of 1857, in the province of Malwa, by Nizam Uddin ; then the Jauhar-i'acl, an allego rical moral novel like the " Pilgrim's Progress," and various poetical works chiefly of an erotic stamp. E a: g a l s o h r g f e u l r a t h p e i r e c e n o c t a i l c l e e t d a h s s singular n f fact that e ur r s e tr n l t tng in e l c n o i d n i a c d u e I n ), der r Our th t i h ts at own soo bnaarmwel thevin meaning of which is " fine g o r t i o g i t n h a e l colour," also signifies gold ; and as the conversion of a b into a v is very frequent, as well as that of a French on into an English short one, the Indian has adopted the Eng lish word with the greatest ease ; it moreover ina gurates the decimal system, the value of the sove reign being exactly 10 rupees.

HORSHAM, Friday. The annual exhibition of stock, roots, and poultry was held in this town yesterday, and was well attended by the farmers of the district. Although the show of fat stock, owing to the cattle plague, was numerically smaller than it had been for some years, the quality of the animals exhibited was considered unusually good. In the afternoon the farmers at the Black Horse Hotel, under the presidency of Mr. Seymour Fitzgerald, the late member for the borough, who was supported by Colonel Barttelot, M.P., Mr. Hurst, M.P., Sir Percy Burrell, M.P., &c. The CHAIRMAN, in proposing the " Army, Navy, and Volunteers," referred to the recent occurrences in Jamaica. He said that there had been in late events in connection with Jamaica, in regard to which he thought a portion of the public and of the press had not behaved with that justice and forbearance which the absent at all times were en titled to claim, and which we, taking a pride in the honour of our army, were bound on their behalf to demand. He did not think that any thing could be more pitiable, or could call more for their regret than the spectacle which had lately been held out to us as regarded the position of the colony of Jamaica. We saw there race set against race, religious sect set against religious sect, and from the highest to the lowest, society in discord and divided against itself. In such a society, at a time of the greatest difficulty, the army had been called upon to perform great, diffi cult, and important services. There was about to be an investigation into all the circumstances of the disturbances in Jamaica, and he thought we might ask this at least of the most bigoted of our coun- trvmen—that they should not pass a judgment until they had heard the whole case. (Cheers.) And if in a moment of difficulty and danger, such as those resident in Jamaica had passed through, there had been in some instances errors of judg ment, let us at least abstain from that which he was sorry to see had been too common among public speakers of late years—namely, the passing of a general condemnation upon all those who had been engaged in such difficult circumstances in the ser vice of their country. Let us believe this—that what British soldiers have hitherto been, not more remarkable for their valour than their mercy, would be found to be their characteristic now, and that it would be shown that in Jamaica, as well as in every other part of the world, their conduct had been a credit and an honour to the British name. (Cheers.) Major ALDRIDGE, in responding, strongly censured the strictures which had been passed upon Governor Eyre and the authorities in Jamaica. He believed that when we had the whole of the case before us it would be found that Governor Eyre, whose sym pathy for the black was well known, had acted throughout for the best. Mr. Lnuorr gave the " Health of the Members for West Sussex," which was received with great cordiality. Colonel BARRTELOT, M.P., on responding, said was a most responsible and arduous duty for a member of Parliament to discharge in a straight forward manner the duty of representing a consti tuency in Parliament. He had endeavoured to the best of his ability to discharge his, and he wanted no ;further reward than the kindness with which they had hitherto received him. They had now a new Parliament. The late Parliament, with all its good, and with all its shortcomings, had now passed away, but he thought he might venture to say of it that although it might not occupy a very high position in the annals of the country, yet that that Parliament bad done as far as it knew how ex actly what the nation wished, and that was not to do too much, but only to pass those measures which were absolutely necessary for the welfare and well being of the country. That Parliament was presided over and guided] by a man now gone who would ever be remembered as an Englishman, who never swerved from doing all he thought necessary for the advantage and honour of his country. (Cheers.) At no period of our existence had there been a man so well suited to all parties in this country as the late Lord Palmerston. He and many others had differed from the noble lord, but still, taking Lord Palmer ston on the whole, he was the true type of an Eng lish gentleman, and as such would be for ever hon oured and respected. (Cheers.) At the same time, there was one passage in the history of the late Par liament which he regarded as a dark spot—namely, the way in which Denmark was treated by this country. He regarded it as a mistake and a fatal questions, that what we ought all to labour for and have hitherto Sat on different sides of the House, ought all to desire is a settlement, and the removal but of men who, although they - may differ on cer of these questions as soon as we possibly can from taro questions, yet upon great public questions have the arena of agitation. We should settle them, if found their opinions the same. My right hon. not at once and for all, at least for a sufficient period friend simply suggested that that is more probable to last out the life of any single man I now address. than many men imagine from the eagerness with (Cheers.) But the fault, as it seems to me, and that which Mr. Bright deprecates any such course, and which is the great obstacle in the mind of every , seeks to place an impossible chasm between that thinking man, is the difficulty, in any change of our party and their opponents. lie says that if mode representative system, of finding some spot where rate men of both parties can be brought to act to we can stop, and where we can say, "Here we stand gether the game of those who seek extreme mea on principle. Here is a fair ground of settlement sures is gone. (Hear.) He talks of a coalition, beyond which we will not go; but to this, as a matter , but what can be such a coalition as an union be of principle, we are willing to advance." If you say 1 tween himself and those whom he calls Whig s, you will lower the franchise to £ 8 and do so, there whom he has been for years systematically abusing? is an immediate demand that you should admit £7. (Hear, hear.) He does this because he fears that From £7 you would be called on to go down to £6 ; , moderate men would forget party ties, and, looking from £6 to £5 ; from £5 to £ 4 ; and, if we come I only to the interest of their country and the settle to a test of that kind, we shall soon find that there ment of those great questions, will say we have is no resting-point. We cannot hit upon any been long separate, but for common interests and mode which would enable us to settle for a length- for the attainment of one common object let us for ened period that question, upon the solution of ' get what is past, and unite over an effort jointly to which I believe the greatness and happiness of this support the throne, to improve the Constitution , country for many years are at stake. (Hear, and to extend the representation as far as we can, and cheers.) One point which has struck us in so as to admit the working classes to the benefit we reference to the late speeches of Mr. Bright is that ourselves enjoy. (Cheers.) Let us unite for these he affects a moderation which I am afraid he does purposes, and I believe that if honest men do so not feel—a moderation very different from that which combine the member for Birmingham will not long he has expressed in former times. He tells us there I enjoy the authority which he now possesses. Mr. are 5,000,000 heads of families unrepresented, and I Fitzgerald resumed his seat amid loud and general he only asks that 1,000,000 of them shall be admitted. cheering. If all the 5,000,000 are entitled to be admitted, he is Several other toasts were given, and the proceed certainly making a moderate demand in asking that ings were not brought to a close until a late hour. only one in five should be admitted ; but there lies ':= all the question. The constituencies now number 1,500,000, and if you introduce 1,000,000 men all of one class, of one feeling, and with one general in terest, you at once introduce into your Constitution a disturbing element. (Cheers.) You do not do that which will settle or that which will conciliate, but that which will derange and disturb. You will introduce a class that will almost counterbalance all the other interests put together, and it would be per fectly certain to have a monopoly of power unless those who shared in the representation were of one thought and mind. In support of his views, Mr. Bright, to my extreme surprise, in his last speech quoted the opinion of the great Lord Somers. There is no name in the wide history of England or in the annals of all our constitutional history, which is en titled to be regarded with more admiration and re spect than the name of Lord Somers ; but any one who knows the writings and opinions of that dis tinguished man will be astonished to find that if the words quoted by Mr. Bright are to be taken lite rally, Lord Somers is quoted as an advocate of unj,,, versal suffrage. The result of Mr. Bright's -modera tion is that he either asks too little or he proves too much. If five millions are entitled to a vote, why does Mr. Bright stop and say that he will only ask for one million to be admitted ? He does so because he knows that if he expressed an intention, nakedly and broadly, of going for this enormous addition to the franchise, his proposition would be at once and definitively rejected. (Loud cheers.) But there is a greater, I will almost say, crime in the course which has been taken by Mr. Bright at this time. He says, in the very last speech which he delivered, " I shall be told that I am advocating communal opinions. I am doing nothing of the sort." But when he makes this disclaimer, what is the tenour and the course of his observations? He is address ing thousands, perhaps 10,000, of the working men of Birminingham, and he says, " I ask you to look at those who are the governing class of this coun try. Look at their wealth, look at their luxury, look at their ostentation, and look at their weari ness of satiety." He says they are called on to move from place to place in order to escape from the position of wealth and luxury which they occupy. Now, does he mean those who are really the governing classes of this country ? I think not. The governing classes are the middle classes of the country. (Hear, hear.) It is not with the peers and the rich, with those who have this wealth and osten tation, that the great power of the country rests. (Cheers.) When Mr. Bright points to the govern ing classes and says, " Look at their ostentation and their wealth," what does he mean ? He means to separate and single out a particular class—to separate the wealthy and the noble, and to hold them up to a great assemblage of working men as having interests different from their own, and de priving them of what he tells them is their birth right—namely, a participation in the representation of the country. Now, in making such a statement he does that which is a disgrace to any public man —he does that which is calculated to raise up bitter and angry feelings between class and class; he singles out those whom Providence has placed in great and distinguished positions, and he holds them up to the working men of the country as those who are their greatest enemies and oppo nents. (Hear, hear.) If he means that the go verning classes are those who exclude the working men from a share in the representation, it is not the rich, the wealthy, and the noble, but it is the great middle class, and those who support the middle class, because they believe, having much to lose, having a great stake in the country, that their opi nions are stable, firm, and sound. (Hear, hear.) It is:to them that Mr. Bright's remarks must apply, and they are not to be addressed only to the wealthy and rich and noble of the land. (Cheers.) Let Mr. Bright ask himself a question. He speaks of the great success of liberal and democratic institutions, and he says that if there was this wide extension of the suffrage in this country it would be accompanied by an extension of education over the whole surface of the country such as has never yet been seen. He is certainly referring to the agricultural districts as being districts where there is a total want of education, where the peasants are brutalized and debased, and are like the serfs upon a Russian estate. Now, I would ask him to refer to the report which has recently been made by a Royal Commission as to the condition of the children in some of the great departments of industry in the North. (Hear.) I ask him if he has ever been able to read, without his cheeks blushing with shame, that account of the condition of the children employed in the large works in the North. We are told that there are children even of the advanced age of 9 or 10 who do not know the name of the Sovereign, the days of the week ; who never heard of a Saviour, and who do not know even the meaning of a God. (Hear.) If he wishes to seek for a class of children where there is a total failure of education, where there is an ignorance such as scarcely can be paralleled on the face of the whole globe, it is not to the agricultural districts that he must turn. (Cheers.) It is not where he says the labourers are paid a poor pittance, such as almost to justify robbery, but he must go to those districts where fortunes are heaped up and obtained in a very short time. (Hear.) I admit that some of the manufacturers, like Sir Francis Crossley, ex. pend their fortunes with a most princely munifi cence ; but, as a general rule, you will find that where fortunes have been rapidly made by means of the labour of the practical class, the interests of the practical class have never been rightly or justly con sidered. (Hear, hear.) Let me remind Mr. Bright of this—for he read his recantation in the House of Commons—let me remind him that he was the most persistent opponent of those laws by which the labour of women and children was proposed to be limited, simply with the intention of enabling those women and children to obtain education. (Cheers.) He has been the persistent opponent of those laws, and yet, in spite of all the opposition brought to bear against them by the manufacturing interest, they were passed, mainly through the instrumenta lity and by the assistance of the country gentlemen of England. (Cheers.) There is one other point on which I wish to say a word. Mr. Bright addressed himself very strongly in his last speech to some ob servations made by a right hon. friend of mine, the member for Droitwich, who showed how moderate men of different shades of opinion might be got so to combine as to form an Administration possessing the confidence and respect of the country. (Hear.) My right hon. friend also said, quoting an old sen tence of one of the leaders of our party, that " Eng land dislikes coalitions." That is very true, but I understand by that expression the conjunction of men in office differing in opinion, but who will yet consent to waive the opinion they entertain in order to enable them to act together. (Hear.) Ido not understand by a coalition a number of men who Cart - ---_ Crmiliar, The Prince of Wales. - -..--- WINDSOR CASTLE, Friday.
