ANcalipt ENLIRGIEMENT. OF THE WEEKLY DISPATCH. This Journal at ores ;nt the largest in existence—un vaUed for its early intel igence and aneompromislug advocacy of thy 131k.hta of Mankind—will be ENLARGED, 011 and after SUNDAY, the 7th of JANUARY, 1849, to SIXTEEN PAGES, CONTAINING SIXTY-FOUIt COLUMNS, OF TEC SAME 'SIZEAND FORM AS AT PRESENT, WITHOUT ANY EXTRA CHARGE. ~1 17 its zeal in the cause of progress, and its staunch devotion to sue interests of the People, the DISPATCH has become a terror to the upholder of abuses, and a powerful auxiliary on behalf of the Dppressed, whose wrongs will always meet with sympathy an exposure. Encouraged by their success, and anxious to extend the sphere 0/ their Political Influence and Social Utility, the Proprietors have re- Solved on the proposed Enlargement ef the DISPATCH, which here after will answer the purpose of FOUR NEWSPAPERS, Dad thus accommodate four readers at one and the same time. . The columns of the DISPATCH will still continue to be enriched: by the powerf u l con t r ib u ti ons o f . PUBLICOLA," " CII7STIC," " CENSOIIIIIS," ELIZA COOK, and other writers eminently distinguished for their literary attain ments. and whose opinions have ever advocated the cause of the People, in opposition to tyranny and injustice. It may also be obi nerved, that the POOR MAN will always receive LEGAL ADVICII and assistance, as heretofore, from the DISPATCH. A beautiful New Type has been oast, on which • the DISPATCH Will next year be printed. Advertisers are respectfully requested to forward their Advertise ments on or before Friday Afternoon, otherwise no attention can be Paid to them for the current number. An Edition'of the DISPATCH is published at Five o'Clock every Saturday morning, for transmission by the First Train and Morning se that persons residing in towns 250 miles from London may receive it the same evening. An EXPRESS EDITION of the DISPATCH is published every SUNDAY AFTERNOON, containing news direct from Paris, aid other parts of the Continent, sip to eight o'clock on Saturday Evening. To prevent disappointment, orders should be given early to Mr. RICHARD WOOD, 139, Fleet-street, London, to whom Post-office Orders may be made payable, or to any of the Newsvenders, in town said country.

Empowered by Ac of Parliament. •'" This Institution embraces impchtant and substantial advantages With respect ,to Life Assurances and Deferred Annuties. Policies issued by this Society haye a twofold advantage :—provi lion for the family of tfie Assured, and an augmenting pecuniary available resource to himself, if neeciftl, while living. The Assured has, on all occasions, the power to borrow, without expense, or for feiture of the Wien two-thirds of the Premiums paid. • - -DIVISION OF PROFITS. The continued prosperity of the Society has enabled the Directors at the Animal.Meethig,sheld on the 10th of May, 1848, to declare a sixth bonus; Varying from 27 to 65 per cent. on the Premiums paid on each Polfey effected on the profit scale.

By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or, at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of b urrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk of forfeiture from inability to - continue premiums, besides affording an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and nonid the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives. The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan !Ages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure through this Society.• • I. tENEFITB • - " Secured on attaining the age of 65, by an Annual Premium of 21. ru: rTnutt's:' -1 "' be r, , Annuity.

You have done yourselves no credit in electing one alien (Mr. Cobd en ), and, - therefore, don't go out of the county again for a second. Don't let it be said there is not a man in the West Riding capable and fit to represent you and your interests in Parllament.—(More hubbub and noise.) You have in Mr. Dension a man of the West Riding, he lives amongst you, you can appeal to him on all occasions. As to his ability to serve you, I leave him to answer any question you may put to him.—(Cries of "We won't have him," and much noise.) I tell you this, Mr. Dension is pre pared to answer any question in a straightforward, frank, and manly manner, without any shuffling. He is no shuffler, and without any equivocation or shuffling he will answer any question you may put to him. I beg to introduce Edmund Denison, Esq. EDMUND DENISON, Esq., then presented himself, but the cheers from the friends who surrounded him were drowned in the tumult of groans and hisses from the people below. He said—Gentlemen, I appear before you as a candidate for the honour of representing the West Riding in Parliament, not for the purpose of gratifying my own feelings alone, but in obedience to the earnest request presented to me by parties of all shades of politics, that I would give the electors of the West Riding the option of choosing between two candidates as to their fitness to represent them in Parliament.—(Hear, hear, and uproar.) It is on the ground of duty, and duty alone, that I now appear before you; and in order to make my observations as short as possible I will promise you this most safely, that whatever occurred in 1847 with respect to myself, I will on this occasion most undoubtedly give you an opportunity of going to the poll.—(Cheers from the Tories, and cries of " We don't want you," "We wont have you.") Most of you in this large district of the Riding are more or less engaged in trade, and therefore I have no doubt that much attention has been paid by you all to the question of free trade. My Hon. Opponent has done me the honour to quote, though some what ambiguously, my opinions on free trade. Gentlemen, do as you like with his definition of free trade, but do me the honour to listen to mine. —(Hear, hear.) I say if by free trade is meant a reduction of the duties on all the articles imported from abroad, especially if those imported are neces saries of life, then I am in favour of such redaction ; and I tell you that, with the exception of one article, which I shall not leave unnoticed, during the time I had the honour of representing you in Parliament I supported every such reduction proposed by her Majesty's Ministers most heartily. klaving state6d.ll4.tikagageat- the.!epeal of the-corm i r. laws, which he would lief seek to re-enact, Mr. Denison repeated his opinion, previously expressed at Brad ford, that free trade meant a total abolition of all duties on articles imported into this country, and contended that as his opponent did not go this length he was not, any more than himself, a thorough free-trader. He suspected that in Halifax, as elsewhere, those who advocated free trade had got more of it.than they liked- (" No, no," and a cry of " Then you would go back, would you ?")—and those who advocated a repeal of the corn-laws never meant them to be abolished. and wished part of them back again.—(Cries of " Nought o't sort ;" " Don't you ;" "We don't believe it.") I find, said the Hon. Gentleman, that a great number of respectable persons, advocates of free trade, said, " I did not mean free trade t applAto me, only to my neighbour."—(Laughter, and cries of disapprobation.) " I want," say they," protection for my goods, but to make free with those of others."—(No, no, and disapprobation.) It was a very popular subject; and although some said it was humbug, a great many per sons thought it would lead them into a land flowing with milk and honey.—( Laughter, and cries of " Non sense.") " Oh," said these persons, " but we did not mean this." But you have got these laws repealed, and I tell you I will not vote for the reviving of them. So much for trade, and so much for the cern-laws. My friend (Sir Culling) did me the favour to refer to a private trans action of mine, not connected with Parliament, and he al luded to some observations of mine relative to a reduction of the salaries of the clerks engaged on a railway with which I am connected. He said, I should have begun at the top.— (Hear, hear.) How does _he know I did not ?—(Laughter and cheers.) Sir CULLING—I will tell you how I don't know. You said you had cut down the salaries of the clerks, and you said nothing about anybody else.—( Hear and cheering.) Mr. DENISON—That may be a satisfactory reason for my Honourable Friend making the observations he did, but it would have ill become me to boast of any reduction with regard to myself. But I tell him, if he will become a share holder in the railway of which I am chairman, and ask me the question, I will give him an answer, but I wont answer him here. Mr. Denison then proceeded to the question of economy, and professed himself as anxious as his opponent could be to retrench, if it could be done with safety to the constitution of the country. His Hon. Friend had promised to vote for the ballot, but he would not, as it would give additional facility for deception. On this point he referred to a conversation with a respectable tradesman at Leeds, who had complained that a good customer, two days after he had voted, came and paid his bill, and left his shop, because he had voted against the customer.—(Cries of" That's common enough in Halifax.") Mr. Denison observed—Now, if we had the ballot, and this man had been applied to, he would have said, "Oh, to be sure, you are a very good customer, and I shall be happy to give my vote as you wish. Pray give my compliments to Mrs. So-and-So, and say I hope she liked that sugnr I sent her."—(Laughter.) Well, he then goes quietly into a corner, and puts a ball into the wrong box.—(Laughter and hisses.) Now I do hope tradesmen will exercise their own judgments, and set their customers at defiance, if they wish to compel them to act contrary to it. After stating that he should oppose any ex tension of the suffrage, he spoke at length on the subject of State education, concluding his remarks by observing that he would call upon the State to furnish money enough to enable the working classes to insure their children a good religious education. As to the endowment of the Catholic priests, he was with his opponent on that matter, and should vote against any measure of the kind. 'The Hon. Candidate concluded by answering a question put to him from the crowd, as to whether he would vote for the separation of the Church from the State. M-. Denison replied that he would not, and, added he, " I'll tell you another thing, when the dissolution between those two elements does take place, they will both fall to the ground. I will vote for them being united as long as I live."—(Cheers, hisses, and groans.) Sir CULLlNG—Gentlemen, I want to say a word on a sub ject which has been referred to elsewhere by my Hon. Oppo nent. I have told you already that what I say behind his back I will say before his face, I have told what I am about to mention behind his back, and I now repeat it in his pre sence. I have been reading what be 'said at Barnsley the other day. He said, "if he had studied his own interests he would have remained quietly at home, and he would have been content to do so, and allow them to elect the son of their respected neighbour, Lord Fitzwilliam. But that young gentleman retired, and he had no hesitation in saying he did wrong." Now, gentleman, did not Mr. Fitzwilliam tell you, did he not tell the whole world that he intended to vote for the endowment of Popery in Ireland ?—( Hear.) Then why did not my friend oppose him, holding, as,he did, the opinion which is so opposed to that entertained by himself. For qui facit per alium, qui facit per se, which means that if a man will do any act through another man, he will do it himself.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) Now, Gentlemen, I don't mean to say for one moment that my Honourable Friend does not mean now what he says, but it appears that a fortnight ago he would have voted for a gentleman who openly professed himself to be favourable to the endowment of Popery in Ireland.—(Hear, hear.) How, then, do we know that before the end of another fortnight my Honourable Friend may not change his opinion again ?—( Hear, hear, and cheers.) Mr. DF.NisoN--My Hon. Opponent, though not inten tionally, I am sure, does me a great favour by reading my speeches.—( Laughter.) I cannot say that I return him the compliment of reading his.—(More laughter.) Now I wont quarrel with the words he has put into my mouth, for I believe the reporters are perfectly correct. lie says I was favourable to the return of Mr. Fitzwilliam. I say now what I have said for the last month or six weeks. I have said that if any one gentleman of respectability belonging to the riding had come forward I would not offer him an opposition, whether that gentleman should happen to be Mr. Fitzwilliam or any other good Whig.—(Laughter and derisive repeats of " A good Whig.") I would not have come forward, for I did not wish to disturb the peace of the riding, but to keep it quiet.—(Laughter and interrup tion.) And I was anxious, rather than to have engaged in this contest, to have remained quietly in my arm chair at home. I had had the honour of representing you once--(Cries of " Misrepresenting us")—and a great honour I considered it to be; but I tell you that, looking at the laborious duties a representative of this large constituency is called upon to discharge, I was not anxious for the honour a second time. I will tell you how it was. Those who suggested that the son of a Noble Lord should come forward as a candidate, afterwards not being very well satisfied with him, asked him to retire from the field.—(lnterruption. and cries of " It's not true.") I say those who met at Normanton passed a resolution in favour of young Mr. Fitzwilliam standing as a candidate, and I must say that it would have been quite as well if, before doing this, they had had a slight acquaintance with him before doing so. But without knowing him, or what his opinions were, they pass a resolution in his favour, and afterwards, when he will not comply with certain conditions, they say, " Oh, you are not the man we took you for."—(Laughter, and repeated cries of "It is not trae.") Well, they set to work to make the progress of the canvas so hot that the young gentleman is obliged to retire. Well, one word on another point as to myself. I never promised to vote for him. And I tell you another thing, if he had asked me I should have told him I would not vote for him ; and I will tell yen why. Because I had long ago made up my mind on this] subject of the endowment of the Roman Catholic priests.—(Cheers from the Tories.) I could refer you to passages in my speech, delivered when Mr. Cobden was brought out to oppose me.—(Cries from the Tories of " We'll have him out next time.") I hope you have had enough of him.—(Cries of " No, no," and " We'll have him again.") I say I can refer you to passages in that speech, which many of you, I dare say, have read; and if not, it is here, I have it in my pocket, and I said in 1847 I would vote against the endowment of the Roman Catholic priests. It is not, there fore, a new-fangled opinion, as my opponent now suggests to you, taken up to suit the humour of the day. It was then a settled conviction in my own mind, when I was a candidate for this Riding before, and I expressed it fairly and openly. —(Hear, hear.) But my Hon. Frie nd s ay s, why do I was in him, and would not oppose Mr. Fitzwilliam, who favour of the endowment of the Roman Catholic priests whilst I am opposed to it? Sir CULLING—Yes. when 1 first read the account o f the retirement of Mr. Fitz- Mr. Ditinsorr—l will tell you wh y . I was in London william, at which I was very much surprised; and on the following morning I saw in the newspapers an exceedingly well-penned address to the electors of the West Riding, signed Culling Eardley Eardley.—(Laughter.) I said to myself, this is the man for them—he will walk over the course—he is a thorough-going free-trader, and everything else that seems delightful. — ( Lau g hter. ) I sai d , Well, Mr. F it what nvm ; aynd do as they please, they may d o they, the electors, ma y d o as theyill iam t 'hs think friendspro proper; a p they like, it is all the sa me to me." I came home from Lon don on Friday night, when I heard there bad been a meeting at Normanton of the Conservative party, with some Whigs. I understand they said "This is too bad. We wont stand passedbeing resolutions in my brought in." They Fit zw illiam being turned out, and Sir Culling E ar dl ey , w h o is accordingly connected w with entto w t o h r e k riding, an d fa vour unanimously. This was the conversation.---(Cries of "We don't want it.") No, but you shall have it all. It is owing to your friend on the other side. He accuses me of getting up opinions for the moment, which I have proved to you is not the cue. I have living witne sm w ithi n two • i g ejer. T y lan Denison 1. the pe Yorkshire he will give omen Catholic teache,"s m° they pay no regard to their o , • principles. Mr. DENISON (w h 'h much warmth)—lderd sO,-- (" ' '-oudi la —B you a did. C ou : friend said be would give them ey to each their ch:hicen the principles of the Church o nd.—( Hear, hear, etci cries of " Yes, yes, he did.") lam sorry to contradict hi m, .11„t appeal to you who hear me if he did not say that the education he would give should be in a ccor d ance w i t h t h e Dri,:ciples of his own church.—(Cries of "Yes, yes.") Well, nem we understand, stud the reporters will take down what has bees: said to-day. Remember this, respectable Roman Catholics, remember' that every one of you, if you a re t o hive money for your ,schools according to our friend Mr. Denison, it is. to be on the con dition that yon teach your children according to the princi ples of the Church of England.—(Loud cries of "Hear.") I am glad our friend has shown himself in his true colours. (Cheers.) lam glad he has taken down th e white flag and hoisted the blue.—(Loud cheering.) Whigs, li s t en ! y ou who thought you were going to vote • for a man who, to a certain extent, supported religious liberty.—(gear, hear.) He tells you plainly and fully he will vote for assistance to no sort of schools of one denomination or other unless they will abandon their principles and teach those of the Church of England.—(Cries of " Capital," ." Excellent," and loud cheers.) Gentlemen, I have a question to answer which has been handed to me, as I said before, in writing. It is— " Will I vote for a national system of secular education entirely free from all religious dogmas." Gentlemen, t will tell yon why_ I wont. I consider religion an essential part of education. A man is imperfectly educated who has not been religiously educated. I should deprecate any Go vernment supporting any system of education in which reli— gion was left out; therefore, on conscientious principles, I should think it right to vote against such a measure. One word more about free trade. Our friend on the other side spoke of somebody who had got more free trade than they liked. I am sure it is not I.—(Loud cheers.) I. do not think it is you.— (Laughter, and cries of " No, no, he doesn't know what he's talking about.") From what he said I am almost convinced it is himself.—(Laughter.) Mr. DEsasost—Well, Sir Culling, have you done Sir CULLING —My Hon. Opponent asks me if I have done. It is almost time I had, for I think I have done for him.— (Laughter and cheers.) I am sure I shall have the sup port of every man who does not mean to have a thorough Tory to represent him. My opponent is a most respectable man and an excellent magistrate I have no doubt ; but he always was a Tory, is a Tory, and always will be a Tory. Mr. Deursost—Gentlemen—(Groans and interruption from the crowd belew)—you will permit me to have one word before Kpull off my!hat. My friend says he his not had enough of free trade. I should have thought he had.—(Laughter.) I know no particular gentleman here who complains of free trade, but I have met persons who have. For myself, I have nothing to do with it, and I have no right to com plain, for lam not a manufacturer. But as far as the Chan cellor of the Exchequer can go with safety in the reduction of duties, and such reduction will enable him to believe that he can get more money into the Exchequer, so far I win g() with him.—(Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, I have-other places to go to, and therefore I will not detain you. When the day of nomination arrives I shall be at my post, and when it does I trust -I StUdi have the honour of being your Member, whether my colour be blue or white.— (Laughter.) If my Hon. friend thinks that from this change of colour my politics are changed, he is mistaken • neither is my regard for my colour or my principles changed. The reason, as I believe, that white was adopted instead of blue was simply because to many parties it was t h ought to be less offensive—(" Hear, hear, " from the Liberals)—and when all is said and done, I may add that if my friend was to adopt a white favour instead of an orange one, it would be quite as likely to ensure his election.—(Laughter.) Those whose colour he has adopted will not have him. He knows they will vote for me, and he winces under the im pression that whether he bids high or bids low they will not have him.—(Cheers and hisses.) Immediately Mr. Denison had concluded his speech, the Tories began to move off, when it was suggested by Sir Culling that they should remain till a vote was taken. They, however, only moved the more rapidly, and therefore one of Sir Culling's friends immediately called for a show of hands in his favour. Every hand appeared to be upraised, this manifestation being followed by great cheering, whilst at the same moment the Tories were to be seen hurrying out of the yard in all directions as fast as their legs could carry them. Several questions had been handed up in writing, but any interest they might under other circumstances have excited was entirely absorbed in the discussion which took place between the candidates. The questions were not further pressed, and the assemblage immediately separated. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. THE COAST OF AFRICA. PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—The Siren, 16, Com mander Chaloner, arrived this afternoon from the above station. She left St. Paul de Loando on the Ist of Oc tober,St. Helena the 19th, Ascension the 25th, and Sierra Leone Nov.t 7. The squadron was distributed thus at the latest dates :—The Penelope and Philomel at St. Paul de Loando ; the Amphitrite in the Bights ; the Tortoise at Ascension; the Alert left Sierra Leone on the sth of November for the Gambia; the Bittern off Loango and 111ayumba; the Bonetta in search of the Commodore; the Britomart cruising between Cape Mayumba and the river Settee; the Contest off Ben guela; the Cygnet in the Bights; the Dart cruising off Ambriie; the .Dolphin in the Bights; the Favourite gone to Loango with provisions for the Bittern; the Pantaloon, from England, in search of the Comthodore; the Ranger, recovered, and gone under sale in search of the Commodore to report herself all safe; the Rapid left Congo on the 16th of October, to go northward ; the Star in the Bights; the Wanderer off Cape Lopez ; the Blazer en route to St. Paul de Loando ; the Cyclops left Sierra Leone, Nov. 6, for Ascension; the Firefly in the Bights; the Grappler, in Elephant Bay; the Pluto up the river Congo; . the Snap tender, en route to Ascension ; the Sealar k and Adelaide sailed from. Sierra Leone on the 7th of No vember, the latter en route to Port Adelaide; the Water • wLeh cruising off the Gallinas. Commander Rutherford has invalided from the Commodore's vessel, and gone to St. Helena to recruit, and First Lieutenant Charles B. Bailey was made Acting Commander of her. The slave trade was very brisk. The Siren, since she has been on the coast (for the last twelve months cruising off the river Settee), has captured two prizes herself and shares for two others. The Penelope, Siren, and Bittern, were lying at anchor in Mayumba-bay on the sth of August, when a vessel was sighted becalmed ; the Penelope got up her steam, went cut, and presently made capture of the celebrated slaver Polka, a fine brigantine fitted for the traffic, and having twenty-four slaves on board at the time. The Britomart has taken two—one empty and one having 425 slaves on board. The Dart has taken one empty prize since the last mail. The Philomel, which lay outside of St. Paul de Loando on the Ist of October, reported the Grappler having taken another prize a day or two before, which she had destroyed in Elephant bay. The Kingfisher had not arrived on the coast. The Siren has lately been very healthy. - She lost a man named Richard Sapper, a supernumerary from the Phi lomel, yesterday, in a heavy gale; he fell overboard and although every means which could safely be adopted for his rescue were put in practice, he was lost. Another man, a sailmaker, from the Tortoise, died on the passage. The Island of Ascension was exceedingly healthy, and it was computed that there was a three years' ample sup ply of good water; all the turtle ponds were full, and vegetation and food for the flocks plentiful. The Siren was commissioned on the 9th of May, 1845. She has been ordered to land her pay books, supernume raries, and sick, and proceed to Sheerness to be paid off. The Prince Regent, 92, Captain W. F. Martin, has been ordered to take on board among many other sup plies fur Sir William Parker's squadron, a number of seamen, gunners, and gunners' mates from the Excel lent, to the number of 25 in all.

I ,:~ _ W OOLWICH_ DEC. s.—Captain Lord John Hay, C. 8., one of the Lords of the Admiralty, and Mr. Lloyd, Chief Engineer of Steam Machinery at the Adasiralty, visited Woolwich Dockyard on Saturday, and remained some time on board the Arro g ant, 46-gun frigate, ex amining the machinery fitted by the Messrs. Penn in that vessel for working her auxiliary screw propeller. She is now taking her guns and stores of various kinds on board, and will shortly have her sea-going speed fairly tested. The Samson steam-frigate, Captain T. Henderson, arrived at Woolwich on Saturday afternoon to be paid off, and commenced taking down her topgallants and rigging to-day. Mr. Field, senior inspector of police at Woolwich Dockyard, has been promoted to be senior inspector of the detective force of the metropolis, and left on Satur day last for that duty. Mr. Macgill, second inspector, has been promoted to first inspector; and to have the charge at Deptford Dockyard; and Mr.Feltham returns as senior inspector at Woolwich Dockyard. KING'S COLLEGE HOSPITAL.—"It appears that several desirable improvements are about to be effected in the densely populated neighbourhood of King's Col lege Hospital, at the instance of the Commissioners of Woods and Forests, and the new institution about to be erected instead of the present limited one in Portugal street. At the recent quarterly court of King's College Hospital it was observed that the intended new street would, in all probability, require the removal of the houses .in Cleinent's-lane, and an opportunity having offered, the committee secured the advantages of having a frontage both in Carey -street and the proposed new . thoroughfare, by purchasing the whole for 7,600 L MURDER IN A LlTNAXlCmelanchol y occurrence took place on Monday morning, in the nt Derby. pri vate lunatic asylum kept by Dr. 13r2 and d e w of ho th w e harmless esoos idiot than anykeeper in the room.

Gentlemen —I should not have addressed you again so soon merely to report progress. My friends deem the result of our first week's proceedings highly satistac'ory, but I have such important communications to make to you on matters of principle that I will not waste your time by anticipating the , poll. My object is to de serve success, even more than to obtain it Imputations of rancout towards Roman Catholics were made against me at the beginning of the contest. No one has at tempted to substantiate this imputation at any of the 'met= tugs which I have attended. With my controversies on purely religious topics, • Blectori feel they have no con cern. The only question with them is, have I ever proposed, abetted, or contemplated injaatice to any class of religionists ? If so, let it be proved. lam ready to demonstrate that I have used no arguments about the contemplated endowment of the Roman Catho lic priests which they would nObe perfectly welcome, if our poSition was reversed, to use against me.- Henceforward, if men of honour think fit to assail me on this point in my absence, I am sure they will have the manliness to try to substantiate it in my presence. I am ready to meet them, in fair argument, on the day of .nomina tion. I only ask to receive beforehand a written stateasent of the imputation against me, and of the facts by which it . 1a thought to be sustained. Failing such proof, I call upon all friends of ClvD•and Religious Liberty to support me. I call on them to be as true to their princi ples as my opponent is to his. Mr. Denison, at Halifax, on,Satur day, declared that he should, upon principle, hive voted against Mr. Fitzwilliam, as an advocate of the endowment of the Irish priests. Liberals !of all classes and of religions, be not otitdOne by a Con servative in fidelity to your convictions. You desire equality for all religions, and that is my desire too. I will not, be a pasty to en dow the Roman Catholic church, neither will I consent.to pay out of the public purse additional Colonial Bishops of thi Church of England. Mr. Denison said on Saturday, that he concurred'• iin a system of National Education based upon religion, but that he disap proved aiding the Roman Catholic schools, unless' bn poi:Milton that the religion taught their should not be the religion' , of their own teachers 1 I can only express my astonishment at such a de claration, On the broad ground, then, of principle, I appeal to the Liberal Electors of the West Riding not to be ashamed of their colours. Let Toryism heist false flags to lead the unsuspicious to believe that it has changed. Let it lower the " Blue" standard, to which even its enemies never refused the name of " true," and let it hold forth the white flag of a hollow and dishonest truce to men who wish to be deceived 1 Bat let those who have inherited from their ancestors the principles and the symbols of liberty, rally round tile Orange standard 1 Rest assured that, of all impolitic thingi, a hollow co alition is the most impolitic. The party which adheres to principle is the only one which can count upon success, because it is the only one which deserves it. I am, Gentlemen, Your faithful and obliged servant, ' C. E.

Wilson, Chemist, Moak 'Ear York, " To Mr. Thomas Prout, 14th June, 1847. " SlR,—Having suffered most dreadfully for the last six years from repeated attacks of the gout, and receiving no benefit from the best medical advice I could obtain, I was induced about six weeks ago to try a box of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills. When i commenced taking them, which was in the afternoon, my feet and elbows were very much swollen and inflamed : I was suffering the most intense agony. I had that night sound and refreshing sleep, and awoke in the morning coMparatively free from pain • and before I had finished the box. I never was better in my lif e : they have not only entirely removed the gout, but have also very much improved my general health. I have since recommended them to four individuals, who have suffered much from gout and rheumatism ; and they all speak highly of the benefit they have received from them. If you think my case worthy of insertion among the many cures effected by your wonderful medicine; 3Eu are at perfect liberty to publisivit. " I am, sir, yours respectfully, • " J. WILSON." The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing -effects of this valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheuma tism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy and certain relief. They require neither confinement nor attention of any kind, and invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach, brain, or other vital part. Sold by Thomas Front, 229, Strand, London ; and by his appolift mint by all respectable Medicine Vendors throughout. i the.United Kingdom. Price 2s. 9d. per box.

A R R I A G E. One half the wend ars desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a MIN of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em guar the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un cosnprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form as item in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er leglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " rub. in 2 vols., Is. each (by wet, in stamps, le. 6d. each). Let no • imaginatively refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered oy misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle cariosity, but tor the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or Tgether, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, twO other ittle publications claim your attention (same price Is. each, by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and Avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob servance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he would be done unto—to live atter nature's laws—and to keep always m the "sunny side of the way." The above works may, be had of iherwood, 23, Paterncster-row ; Carvalho, 147, Fleet-street Mann, 39, Cornhill; Nelson, 457, West Strand; or direct (by Post or other wise) from the anther (who may be conferred with personally, mornings and evenings), 10, Argyll-place Regent-street . ; and all R,-wsksellers. • . . L 0 V E is the leading feeling of -therhuman breast. More exalted than mere passion, it soars high above every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice, but more engrossing even than ambition. No mastic , exatipt from its influence, or can avoid its sway; and business, , plensnre, 'philo sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under the senthrpfling power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases 'in-intoyisity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of nwriage. When union does not take place, however, this piisfon, this fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feellngslAcomes a deadly poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life time spent in the fulfilment of every engagement, snap. the very con tract asunder which should be most binding to an hononrable mind? It is the effect of conscience. The Lover. by enervation of early habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be disqualified, and dares not enter a state which lias been instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be beyond measure deplorable Loving and beloved, he entails the most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the attention of all. Those desirous of investigating it will find the fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work entitled SELF-PRESERVATION. illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology, and diseases of the reproductive organs ; with practical observa ions en tke secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from solitary habits, excesses, or infection. By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., DOCtOr of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Mall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. This treathic is the result of a long.course of study in a peculiar and much neglected branch of medical practice, and the author having ob tained the highest medical honours, is a guarantee for his profes sional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treat ment of those diseases.

Early on Sunday morning we had a keen frost with a slight fall of snow, but the temperature became milder in the forenoon, and in the evening rain fell in torrents with wind from the south west, which blew during the night with the fury of a tempest.

MEETING AT HALIFAX. • (From an Extraordinary Edition of the Leeds Mercury.) Sir Culling Eardley Eardley, Bart, and Edmund Denison, Esq., met again upon the same platform at Halifax, and never had the Tories a more complete defeat even in that good town. The weather was most inauspicious, rain and sleet, some• times very heavy, falling during most of the time that the candidates were addressing the electors. Notwithstanding this there was a large gathering of electors and non electors in the spacious area of the Piece-hall. From two to three thousand persons were in attendance, most of whom occupied the open space in front of the side gallery, and maintained their position gallantly with the aid of umbrellas. After the usual speeches by friends and candidates a regular discussion of a very important nature, and which was started by Sir Culling Eardley, took place between the two candidates. The proceeding was altogether a novel one and excited the liveliest interest : so deeply were all present absorbed in it, that questions which would otherwise have been asked were never put at all. Sir Culling came off most triumphantly, and in the opinion of all impartial judges, put his opponent to utter shame. He was frequently and loudly applauded, and when a show of hands was about to takd place, the Tories sought to hide their diminished hands by a precipitate retreat. Before they had escaped from the gallery, however, in which they had stood, the show took place, and every hand appeared to be held up for Sir Culling Eardley : but one solitary .hand was elevated among the crowd for Mr. Denison. The result was hailed with great cheering, which was renewed on.the Honourable Baronet's arrival at his committee-room, and on the way thither. The two candidates had reached Halifax in the same rail way carriage, and each had been conducted to his com mittee-room. Almost immediately after, processions of their leading friends were formed and they walked to the Piece-hall. Among the gentlemen who walked in procession with Sir Culling Eardley, or who surrounded him on the platform in the Piece-hall, were Frank Crossley, Esq., George Binns, Esq., the Mayor of Bradford, John Crossley, Esq. Samuel Hodgson, Esq., (the Bowers), Thomas Hodgson, si:Ex tir isjd, Rainsdem, Aid. W. Thompson, Sutcliffe, Esq., (Will ow House), Ald. Binns, David Sugden, Esq., E. M. Wavill, Esq., Jas. Hodgson, Esq., (Stubbin House); Morley, Esq., (Sowerbv Bridge); Royston Oliver, Esq., (Hebden B r id ge ) ; James Fawcett, Esq., (G r een Field); T. T. Orm ero d, E sq ., (Brighouse); John Holland, Esq., Charles and Abraham Pitchforth, Esqs. Mr. Councillor R. Brook, Fredk. Baines, Esq., and Ald. thehardson, of Leeds, &c. It is worthy of notice that not a single member of that party (the Whigs) whom Mr. Denison had attempted to decoy into his ranks by pulling down the blue and hoisting the white flag, and of whose support he too confidently boasts, attended him to the hustings or manifested interest in his favour. Had any of them been in his ranks, they could not have continued there when the Hon. Gentleman was forced by the question of Sir C. Eardley to acknow ledge that "his principles and his colour were just the same as ever I" and that he would have voted against Mr. Fitz william ! But to the proceedings of the day. GEORGE BINNS, Esq., of Norland, came forward, and amidst much applause introduced Sir Culling Eardley to the assembly. He said,—Gentlemen, Freeholders, Electors' and Non-Electors.— (Hear, hear.) We have an important busi ness to decide to-day. It is a business which interests all his Majesty's subjects in my opinion.—(Lauglster, and cries of "Her Majesty.") Well, Gentlemen, I always respected my King, but I doubly respect my Queen.—( Cheers.) We wish the business of the day to be conducted in a peaceable, patient, and orderly manner. Let the candidates speak fairly without any interruption ; hear all they have got to say, and then I have no doubt you will arrive at a proper con clusion.—(Hear, hear.) I have a firm faith and always have bad in Reform principles.—( Hear, hear.) I have supported them all my life; now I am near 70, and shall never desert them.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, I will not detain yon a mo ment longer, except to introduce to your notice Sir Culling Eardley Eardley, and I have no doubt he is a man who will tell you freely his whole heart and mind on all the subjects connected with government which require reform and im provement.—(Cheers.) Sir CULLING EARDLEY EARDLEY was received with cheers. He said—Gentlemen; I suppose my Honourable Friend who introduced me is of the same opinion as the person I heard speaking about our Government the other day, who said we had a better way in England of making revolutions than they have in France, and that we were in this country making revolutions continually, for when we were tired of our Government we turned the Ministry out of Downing-street, and put another in its place.—(Hear, bear.) Now, when we speak of her Majesty's Govern ment, we mean King John—Lord John Russell.—(llear, hear.) Gentlemen, I come before you to-day, not as an advocate of "King John" or of King Robert, but I come before you as an • advocate of King John Bull.—(Laughter and cheers.) I owe my allegiance to my Queen, and I love her, and I hope I shall never see the day when we shall cease to have a constitutional Monarchy in this country. —.( Loud cheers.) And one reason why I love my Queen because I believe she loves her country, and is anxious to promote the interests of all.—(Applause.) Gentlemen, I will endeavour, as the weather is so unfavourable, and you have to stand in the rain, to make a long story short, especially as I shall have a great many subjects to speak to you about. Gentlemen, I am speaking not only to you in front, but (turning to Mr. Denison and his friends) to those on the side.—(l.lear, hear.) And lam glad to have them by the side of me.—(Hear, bear.) They would' not come and meet us yesterday at Wakefield.—( Hoar, bear.) I believe they had enough of us the day before at Bradford.— (Laughter. ) Now that they are here, we shall have a fair fight and no favour, and you shall say who is the best man that can serve the county best in Parliament.— (Cheers, and cries of "Not you" from the Tories.) Gentlem en , th e quest i on i s not, who will serve the county best at Quarter Sessions; if it were, Mr. Denison is worth a dozen of me.—(" Hear," " No, no," and laughter.) I have no doubt in that he is far superior to me, as he has had a great deal more to do at quarter sessions than I have, but I should stand some chance with him if the business of a board of guardians was the question. I have been there as well as he. If you were going to choose a man merely because he happened to be a good magistrate, a respectable gentleman and a neighbour, why you would take him and not me. But I take it that is not the question to-day. (No, no.) You want a man to represent your opinions in Parliament.—(lnterruption from the Tories, and cries of "Go on," •" Go on," from the crowd.) Gentlemen, lam sorry you are obliged to be out in the rain so; therefore, I will tell you as briefly as I can what lam for. lam for the ballot.—(A voice, "Yes, but not without the suffrage.") Well, I'll tell you all about that presently. lam in favour of an extension of the suffrage too.—(A voice,—" How tar?") lam for its extension at present to those who now vote for town councillors. lam for that at present, and a further extension afterwards. Will that do for the suffrage ? —(No.) Why, how far should I say?—(A voice—" House hold.") I don't go for that at present, but I will ex plain to you my views. If you had got the ballot, the great big gentlemen could not compel you to vote againit your consciences; and if you had municipal suffrage, I believe you would have good government. I come next to the question of economy, and I will tell you why. Because the two sub jects are intimately connected -together ; - for if you have a Parliament which represents public opinion in the country properly, fairly, and fully, the pounds, shillings, and pence will be looked after better than they are at present.— (Cheers:') And lam not afraid to say this, although Sir Charles Wood, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, happens to be Member for this borough.—(Cries of " He's one, and our grandfather for t'other," followed by much laughter.) I have a great respect for Sir Charles Wood, but my respect for him is not to prevent me looking sharply after his accounts. I think it is high time the exchequer of this country was looked after more sharply than it has been.—( Hear, hear.) I say not at Halifax what I will not say elsewhere. . Now I will give you a decided and candid opinion where reduction should take place. I think it should not be simply a reduc tion of the salaries of the clerks and the subordinates in office. My Hon. Opponent said, the other day, at Brad ford, that he was an economical man and that you might trust him on that point, because he was Chairman of the Great Northern Railway, and he had assisted to cut down the salaries of the clerks.--(Hear, hear, and laughter.) I think we should begin at the other end, and not cut down merely the little expenses, but begin at the top.—(Loud cheers.) The Hon. Baronet then proceeded to point out the necessity for a reduction in the expenses of our foreign ambassadors, public offices, the army and navy," and in other items. In reference to the question of , free trade the Hon. Baronet said—l don't mean by tree trade what my Hon. Friend says of it. He explained it in his way at Bradford the other day. I think he should endeavour to find some schoolmaster to teach him political economy, and instead of going to Parliament he should go to school.—(Laughter, cheers, and cries of " Yea, send him to a Government school.") My excellent Friend takes free trade to mean a .trade without any duties.—(Cries of " Nonsense ; he didn't understand it.") That is not my idea of free trade, but what I mean by it is that no taxes should be put on for the interest of any party in the State. Whether the articles imported come from India or China, from the Brazils or our colonies, they should be taxed alike. My friend's idea of free trade reminds me of what happened to some friends of mine who went to Italy. They were missionaries. They went to Leghorn, which they understood was a free port. On arriving they immediately began to unpack their books and distribute them. This, however, was soon put a stop to by the police, who took them up. They were su r p r i se d , and on being told that this was prohibited, they said they thought the port was free for them to do what they liked.— (Laughter.) So my friend's idea of free trade is, that im ports should pay no taxes of any kind.—(Laughter.)i Sir C. E. also explained his views on the endowment question, but as his views in detail on that point have already appeared in print, it is unnecessary to repeat them here. The Hon. Baronet concluded his speech amidst loud. cheering. H. EDWARDS, Esq., M.P. for Halifax, next came forward, but his appearance in front of the gallery gave rise to such a hubbub and noise, that it was some time before he could be heard at all. Every sen tence he uttered was met with a regular chorus of groans, of laughter, and loud vociferations of "my grandfather." Such was the noise and uproar that prevailed, that to give a full and accurate report of his speech would be impossible. We understood him to say, Gentlemen,—With regard to the two gen tlemen who have come forward to solicit your suffrages as candidates for the representation of this great constituency—(Laughter and groans)—l have the honour to introduce one of them to your notice — (Hear, hear, laughter, and hisses)—a gentleman — ( A cry of "my grandfather ") —who has long lived amongst you, who was born and bred amongst you, and who has before served you in Parliament like a man.—(Shouts of laughter, and shouts of "Hear our grandfather.") I have the honour to be in Parliament mv self—(Groaning and interruption) —and I have the happi ness to represent yeu—(" No, no, misrep resent you mean, " and cries of "Grandfather")—and having been in Parliament myself, I can say to you he is a man— ( l nterruption) —he is a man who has served you on Co m mittees.— (Uproar.) I will tell you one thing my friends, and grandchildren ,• I say again— (Peals of laughter, and uproar)—l will tell you I know as a fact that he sat more than 100 days on Committees. —(Uproar.) Well, gentlemen, does not that show to you be is a man capable, in the estimation of men of different opinions, to serve you well in Parliament?—(" Hear," from the Tories, and cries of "Nought at sort, grandfather.") You may talk as you like, but I My it does.4.(Laugbter.) OPEN THIS EVENING, BANVARD'S GRAND PAINTING of the MISSISSIPPI and MISSOURI RIVERS, at the Egyptian Hall, Piccadilly.

La'Mert on the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity.—" There are scenes in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf into which such scenes must plunge him 1 In the book lidera us such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and • instruct the erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a nand not al ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally, upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By un taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed ; but wherever laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing in these pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions ot a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine." —United Kingdom Magazine.

BEDFORD-SQUARE. LONDON.. f [PRICE op. yards of me, that after the meeting at Normanton, never was man approached by a deputation of greater respectability and influence than I was. They said—" Come forward or not, willingly or nor' we will not submit to this dictation to the riding." I fenced with them as long as I could. I appealed to them, and desired them to look out for some other person who would be more fit to represent the riding than I was. But the result was, they were determined to have me, and I assure you that nothing but a sense of duty to the riding could have induced me to consent to become a candidate; therefore it is not I who came out voluntarily ; it was others who made me, as. they were determined not to be over-ridden in the way that was attempted. Sir CULLING—I am sure my opponent will admit now that lam a good hand at drawing a cover.—(A laugh.) And now, I think, you will understand better how matters are than you did before.—( Hear. hear.) When a man says be would be content that a candidate should walk over the course, it is natural to conclude that he is not diametrically opposed to him.—(llear, hear.) But if I found a man was going to do a thing which was disgraceful and abominable —and I think this intended endowment of the Romai Catholics is abominable—l would moot it myself and oppose him.—(Hear, hear.) I am glad to hear that my friend would have voted against Mr. Fitzwilliam on this point. Yorkshire now knows this for the first time, and probably Mr. Fitzwilliam knows this for the first time, and I only hope that Mr. Fitzwilliam will go and vote against him. Mr. DENISON (interrupting Sir Culling)—What I said was this : Mr. Fitzwilliam never asked me for my vote, but after that declaration of his in favour of endowing the Ro man Catholic priests in Ireland, I should most undoubtedly have voted against him.—( Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") Sir CULLlNG—Gentlemen, I only repeated my friend's words in saying that he would have voted against Mr. Fitzwilliam. Gentlemen, it is high time that this unnatural coali ion of Whigs and Tories was put an end to.—(Cries of "It is," and loud cheers.) It is now clear that every Whig who votes for my friend Mr. Denison votes against his own principles.—(Cheers.) Now I like men to do what they say they will. A Whig says he is in favour of religious equality; but Mr. Denison is:not in favour of it.— (Hear, hear, and " No, he is not.") I!'should be ashamed to be a Whig to vote for him and against a Liberal; and I call on every Whig who may venture to vote for Mr. Denison—if such there be—to come forward on the day of nomination—to state their reasons why they vote so entirely against their principles.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") I have a great respect for consistency. My friend is a man of honour and a straightforward gentle man. He professes to be a Tory, holds his opinions and acts upon theta consistently, and therefore I can respect hiewfor his consistency. But I have no respect at all for a man who calls himself a Whig, is in favour of religious equality, and after that goes and votes for Mr. Denison against religious liberty.—(" Hear, hear," and loud cheers.) Gentlemen, I want to know what my Honourable Opponent means by " religious education." Does he mean an education based on religious liberty, or does he mean an education based on the principles of the Church of England ?—(Cries " of course he means his own.") No, I believe he means a system of re ligious education aided by the State, money being given by the State both for Church schools and for the schools of , other denominations.—(Cries of "Not he.") Now I want to know whether he would give money to assist Roman Catholic schools in Yorkshire and:Lancashire ?—(Hear.) If he would do this in England—that is, give money for a re ligious education in Roman Catholic schools in England—l want to know where his principle is, if he will not give money to the Roman Catholics in Ireland?—(Cheers, and cries of " Hear, hear," and " Bravo.") Now, Gentlemen, I think Halifax has done a good day's work. I think we have afforded you some little amusement, and have brought out a little truth.—(Hear, hear.) Any principle which wishes the union of Whig and Tory is not a true principle, for instead of leading to religious equality it will lead to the opposite.—(Hear, hear.) A Whig, as I have said, professes to be in favour of perfect religious liberty. My Honourable Opponent, as you will have seen, would do one thing in Eng land, and another thing in Ireland. I therefore, in order to be quite sure on the point, ask, would he give money to help Roman Catholics in England, and if so, why not give money to help Roman Catholics in Ireland ?—(Cheers.) Mr. DENisosi—Gentlemen; we have come into a new stage of the proceedings. Instead of being questioned by you, I am put into the witness-box to be examined by my 'non. Opponent.—(Laughter.) I thought I had come to submit my opinions to the electors, but never mind. What I mean by religious education is this—that the children of poor people may have an opportunity of being educated according to the principles of the Church of England,—but I believe all parties, Roman Catholics as well as others, if they choose to apply to the State for assistance, will have assistance granted to them ; it is, therefore, their own look out if they do not choose to avail themselves of it. I know why they object. It is said that those who grant the money of the State have a right to control the management. That may be so, but I have given you my view of the case. Sir Comasia.—The question which I put to my Hon. Opponent is— Will he vote for a system of education that will give money to the Roman Catholics in Yorkshire? And if he will, upon what principle does he refuse to give money to the Roman Catholics in Ireland?—(Hear, and loud cheers.) Mr. DENISON—I can very well vote for giving money to the Roman Catholic schools in Yorkshire, whilst at the same time I would not take the money of the State to endow the Roman Catholic priesthood.—(" Answer the question," " Shuffle," and much laughter.) My Hon. Friend says a great number of the Whigs cannot consistently vote for me. I will take the liberty of telling yon that a great number of the Whigs are going to vote for me—(Cheers from the Tories, and disapprobation from the people in front)—and I think there is no inconsistency in their doing that.—(Cries of "Hear, hear," and loud laughter.) And I consider myself honoured by their isfention of doing so, because I think it is the greatest compliment to a man who has served the riding for six years, that the Whigs should throw overboard a cer tain amount of their politics to vote for the man who will best serve them.—(Laughter, and cheers from the Tories.) I know the Whig gentry, and I do not think that any Whigs who vote for me will be afraid to come forward and at once state their reasons for so doing. They will say to my opponent, " We have a right to vote for whom we like, and we will not ask your permission to do so. On the whole, though we differ with him (Mr. Denison) on many grounds, yet we think he will come to do our business better than you (Sir Culling), whilst he (Mr, D.) will better maintain the institutions of our country, and we will therefore give him our support."—(Laughter.) And, standing here before you, I say, from the information I pos sess, I feel confident that I shall once more have the honour of representing you.—(Cries of " We wont have you," and much uproar.) Sir CULLING—I have a question to answer which is put into my hands in writing; but before I do that, allow me to reply to one observation of my honourable opponent. I don't object to persons throwing over party, if by that is meant politics, but I do object to them throwing over their principles.—(Loud cheers.) And I tell any man who is a Whig and in favour of religious equality—any man who holds this opinion, who votes for Mr. I)enisen,who has got one principle for England and another for reland—(" No, no," from the Tories, responded to by loud shouts' of "Yes, yes.") Mr. DENISON interposed some denial of this view, as we understood, and added—it my Honourable Opponent goes on as he is doing, the sooner be leaves Yorkshire the better, for the electors will tell him they are themselves quite able to judge as to the manner of exercising their privilege of electing a representative of the riding.—(Laughter.) My friend must forgive me for telling him that before behas done, the Whigs of the West Riding will be as tired of him as (we could not catch the remainder of the sentence, from the noise and in terruption offered to the speaker). Sir CULLlNG—Gentlemen, the people of Yorkshire want nothing but what is fair, and they don't want what is unfair. My Honourable Friend said he wished to give the children of the poor a religious education.—(Hear, hear.) He said, as I understood him, that he would give religious education to any parties, or to all who applied to the State for pecuniary assistance to help them so to do.—(Hear, hear.) He will, therefore, give education to children in Catholic schools—not secular, but religious education— (Loud cries of " Hear, hear")—an education based on Pro. testant principles.—(Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, you will admit I have been pretty successful in drawing the cover, and I will ran the fox to his home.—(Laughter and cheers.) Well, oar friend said he would give education based on religion to all parties, amongst others to the Roman Catholics ; and therefore, in England, he will help the teachers who teach Roman Catholic doctrines to their children.--( Hear, hear, and " That's capital.") Mr. DENISON—My Hon. Friend knows I never said any thing of the sort. What I said, at all events, what I meant to say—(Derisive laughter, and cries of " Ab, ah l")—what I meant to say was this—l would have all of our children educated in the principles of the Church of England ; but I am quite willing for those of other denominations to have aid from the State, if they apply for it.--(Hear, hear, from the Tories.) Sir CULLING—My Honourable neighbour is quite inca pable of reconciling the two things. Our friend must say one thing, and only one. Does he say to-day that he would vote for the Church of England schools being helped by the State, and no other .• or will he vote for Roman Catholic schools also being helped by the State? Does he or does he not mean this ? Mr. Dinersorr—l have answered the question more than once.—(Laughter, and cries of " Shuffler, answer the question?') Sir CULLING—I will not leave this gallery till I have an answer. Does my friend mean to help the Roman Catholic schools or not?—(Cheers.) Mr. DENISON—Then I will answer my friend in another way. I will vote for the application of money by the State according to the resolution of the Committee of Council on Education, and I will give no other answer.—(Laughter, and cries of "It's no answer," "Shuffler," &c.) Sir CULLING—WiII my opponent tell us whether the plan he proposes is one which will give assistance to Roman Ca tholic schools as well as to Church schools; and if so, w ill he have any objection to vote for assistance being given to Roman Catholic schools?—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) Mr. DENISON—I have answered it over and, I ov er vote for (Laughter, and cries of " Shuffle, shuffle.") giving money for education, based on the principles of the Church of England.— (Laughter, and derisive shouts ) Sir CULLING-1f Rome hears us t o- d ay, if there .are any honest Catholics here, it will be said that if I am an op ponent, am at least a straightforward opponent.—(Hear , hear, and great cheerin g .) O ur friend says Church of England s c h oo l s. W ill he help other scho he w ols with State money ?—(Cries of "That's the question; answer it like a man.") Mr. DinsisoN—l will, if they come within the rules of the Committee of Council on Education.—(Laughter.) Sir CULLING —Then I ask, do the Roman Catholics come within the rules of the Committee of Council on Educa tion.—(Cheers, and cries of" Bravo.) Mr. DENISON—I believe they do, but I am not sure. Sir CULLING—I want to know if they come within these regulations, as our friend says he would act on the principle of giving assistance to those schools which come within the rule alluded to.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. DENISON—Again, I say, for the tenth time, that I would have their children to be educated according to the principles of the Church of England.—(Cries of " Send him to school again," and " Shuffle, shuffle.") Sir CULLING—I believe Roman Catholics to be honourable men, and as such, they don't profess,to hold the doctrines of their own Church, and teach their children Church of Eng land doctrines.—(Hear, hear.) And to tell them you will give them money to teach the principles of the Church of England is neither more nor less than insulting them. Will my opponent give money to teach the principles of the teachers in these Roman Catholic schools?—(Cries of " That's it, stick to him," and much laughter.) Mr. DENlSON—No.—(Laughter from the Tories, and de risive laughter from the meeting.) Sir CllLLlNQ—Crentlemen, let us have your attention.
