The principle upon which the business of this Office is con dulled, is that of affording TEMPORARY LOANS to per sons assuring their lives with the Association, upon terms cal culated with reference to the amount of the Assurance effected, and the nature of the security offered for their repayment. The Life Assurance and Loan Bank transactions are distinct. ADVANTAGES TO SHAREHOLDERS. It has been proved by the experience of other Establishments founded on the same principles, that the mode before stated, of employing the capital of the Association may, if aced upon with judgment and propriety, be adopted, not only without risk, hut with the certainty of increasing the profits of the Shareholder to a degree far beyond that attainable by the ope rations of a Lire Assurance Company only. The profits of the Loan Bank belong exclusively to the Shareholders. with the addition of a remunerating deduction from all Premiums paid monthly into the Bank. Interest at the rate of Five per Cent. per Annum will be pad upon the Deposit half-yearly, and the Dividends upon the Profits of the Loan Bank declared annually, after the accounts are audited, 'in the month of January. ADVANTAGES TO ASSURERS. 1. A subscribed Capital, acting as a guarantee to the Policy-holders. 2. As no Loan is granted without an Assurance, a large amount of additional Assurances is obtained by a repetition of Loans ; and as a considerable proportion of the Policies w.ll probably be dropped on repayment of the Loans when the pur pose has been answered, the risks on those Assurances will then cease, and much profit accrue in consequence to the Policy-holders. 3. The Premiums received, after deducting charges, are at the end of each month paid over to the Loan Bank, and inte rest immediately allowed thereon, so that the capital of the Policy-holders is always bearing interest. 4. Theparticipating Policy-holders will, after the payment of Five Annual premiums, become entitled to the whole nett profits of the Life Assurance, which will be applied to the re duction of their subsequent Premiums annually. 5. Individuals possessing real or personal property, Officers in the Army or Navy, Clergyman, Professional men, Mer chants, Tradesmen, and persons of respectability and charac ter, if assured with this Association to the amount of £3OO, at least, for life, may obtain advances of £lOO, and upwards, for terms varying from Three Months, to any other agreed perioi, upon either real or personal security, to be approved of by the Directors, including the security of Policies effected by parties with this Association.

The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, usele.., and even bad books. With the force of this prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To ipsrbeveen.ting some of the most quote passages from the work in preof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and is one of the skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for ir —Old England. fur nishingfrightful themm the public on such few books now coming before . a subject which ' to ti - e character of being strictly professional, at can lay claim . the same time that it is fully intelligible.to all who read it. alad w ie it s h to a wh m i e c a h n fl s es o li f The moral and medical precepts given i n it, render it invalu- Messrs.

The London Anti-Coin-Law Conference held their second meeting yesterday morning, in the great room at the Crown ind Anchor Tavern, Strand, at eleven o'clock. The Delegate. began to assemble as early.ae half-past ten, and by the time the proceedings commenced, the room was nearly filled. Duncan Mac;aren, Esq., took the chair at half-past eleven o'clock. The CHAIRMAN said that he had yesterday announced to the Conference, that on the day previous a letter had beer written by Mr. Brooks, the Chairman of the Executive Committee, to Sir R. Peel, requesting permission for a depu tation from the Conference to wait on him before he should bring forward his motion on the subject of the Corn-laws, in the House cf Commons this evening. An answer had yes terday been received from Sir Robert Peel, after a lapse of twenty-four hours--(Hear, hear)—stating that he was sorry he could not receive the deputation. —( Hear, hear.) Me would_ read the letter and the answer.—(The Chairman then read the letter of Mr. Brooks, stating, that a, Chairman of a preliminary meeting of deputies from various Anti-Corn-law Associations throughout the country, of ministers of different congregations—he requested an inter view in their behalf, from Sir Robert Peel, previous to his bringing forward his motion in support of the Corn-laws. ) That letter was dated Feb. 7, and was delivered at half past-two o'clock on Monday. Yesterday, at half-past two, just twenty-four hours aft er th e l etter h a d b een despatched, the following answer had been received.—(The Chairman then read a letter signed W. H. Stephenson, in which the writer stated that he had been directed from Sir Robert Peel to ac knowledge the receipt of Mr. Brooks's letter, requesting an interview with Sir R. Peel, on behalf of the Deputies from various Anti-Corn-law Associations and religious congregations, in order that they might state their views to Sir R. Peel respecting the Corn and Provision-laws, previous to the announcement of the intentions of the Government on the subject on Wednesday next, and also to express Sir Robert Peel's regret at his inabi lity to comply with Mr. Brooks's request, as he was pre vented from doing so by various pre -engagements. The reading of this letter seemed to excite a stron,t feeling of surprise,l not unmixed with disgust.) Thus, the object for which their p resence h a d b een required at eleven o'clock this day, had not been accomplished. The let ter ha I been under the consideration of the Executive Com mittee, which had met two hours ago, and he could take upon himself to say, that every gentlemen present upon that Comit tee had felt deep regret, and no small degree of astonishment —( Hear, hear)—that the interview should not be granted. There was a general feeling among the members of the Exe cutive Committee, that as the repeal of the Corn-laws was the great measure before Parliament, and that as the subject was to be brought before the House of Commons, this evening, any other engagement might with propriety have been set aside—(Cheering)—in order to enable the Prime Minister of this country to become ac quainted with the opinion of the Delegates before introducing his measure to the House this evening.—(Cheers.) Of course now they could not help themselves. The Com mittee had not come to any resolution on the subject as to the propriety of renewing their application ; but he might state that it was the unanimous opinion of the members of that Committee that the answer to this request ought to have been different.—( Cheers. ) He would also state that the Executive Committee recommended that the several Delegates should individually wait upon any Members of Parliament with whom they might be acquainted, to impress upon them the importance of supporting Mr. Villiers's motion for the total and immediate repeal of the Corn and Provision-laws.—( Loud cheers.) The Executive Committee had not thought it expedient to come to any formal resolution to that effect, but they earnestly re commended that each Delegate should wait upon any Members of Parliament to whom he could gain access, to impress upon them the importance of supporting the motion, and to info. In them of the state of the various districts with which they were con nected. It had been agreed yesterday that any gentleman capable of giving statistical information to the Conference should do so at as ear y a period as possible. A Committee had been appointed for the purpose of receiving and arranging such information. That Committee would meet at two o'clock, and would be happy to receive any information with which gentlemen might be inclined to furnish them. The Secretary would now state some other matters to the Conference before proceediog to the business of the day. Mr. S. SMITIL (the Secretary) called the attention of the Conference to the recommendation of the Executive Com mittee yesterday, that those gentlemen intending to address the Conference should previously inscribe their names, and that they should each be called on by the Chairmao in the order in which their names were inscribed. He had now to state that a clerk was in waiting in an ad joining room to take down the names of those gen tlemen who were desirous of addressing the Conference. He would also state that some inconvenience had been felt with regard to the arrangements to be made between the va rious London Anti-Corn-law Associations, who were desirous of receiving the deputies to the Conference from the various country associations andthe deputies from the country. In or der to prevent this it was desirable that the names of the various London Associations, desirous of receiving the country deputies, should be inscribed, and. also•the places in which their meet ings are held, and that such deputies as might feel inclined to address the various London Associations should also inscribe their names, and he begged to state that a clerk was in attend ance for that purpose. The CHAIRMAN announced that Mr. Dixon, of Carlisle, vvished•to explain a portion of the proceedings of yesterday. Mr. DIXON explained, that in stating yesterday.. the number of signatures to the petition from the city whicir he represented. he had not stated that the petition had been signed by 5,009 individuals, constituting a majority of the inhabitants of that ancient and loyal city, but by a preponderating majority of the male adult population of Carlisle. He would also state that he was not the only Deputy from Carlisle, for so strong was the feeling against those laws in Carlisle, that five or six other gentlemen had been appointed Deputies to the Confer rence.—(Cheers. ) Mr. HAY WARD said nothing could exceed in point of national importance—nay, even in a moral point of view, as a subject affecting the interests of the whole human race—nothing could exceed in importance the carrying out the princi p'e of free and unrestricted commerce.—Loud cheering. ) He felt how important was the motion which had been in trusted to him to propose. It was, that it was most desirable that in the House of Commons some Member should come forward immediately and move for the total and immediate re peal of the Cern and Provision-laws.—(Loud cheers.) It was most difficult to discover the exact character of those laws. —( Hear, hear.) By one set of men they were described as a tax imposed fur the purpose of revenue, and by another as no such thing, but simply as a protection for the agricultural interest, meaning thereby the landlords. --( Cheers. ) It remin 'ed him of the old fable of the bat, who was a bird or an animal as it suited his purpose.—( Hear, hear, and a laugh.) Was it a tax for revenue or was it simply an impost imposing a penalty upon all the inhabitants of the coun try, by raising the price of corn to the starving people of this country above its price in the general market of the world? Was it a tax imposed for the purposes of revenue? No?— (Cheers.) Such a tax would be abhorrent even in the eyes of every arbitrary and aristocratical Tory in the coun try.—(Loud cheers.) Every one would rise against a tax which pressed so hardly on the necessities of the people. To endeavour to raise the finances by such means, he was sure would excite universal abhorrence throughout the whole com munity. In order to impose such a tax, it would be necessary not only to levy a duty on the importation of corn from other countries, but to levy it also on every grain of corn grown in this country ; then it would be a regular tax for the sake of -upplying the revenue and the exigencies of the State. But he thought that every one would at once feel an abhorrence to such a sys+e nof taxation. There was, therefore, no such tax, but the duty was merely laid on the importation of corn from foreign countries, simply, as Lord Stanley had the candour to confess, to raise the rent of the landowners. This was the precise view they must take of it ; and unless they simplified it in this manner, all discussion of the su bj ec t wou ld be confusad, and not understood by any body. Having resolved it into this principle, he should proceed to treat it as unjust and unrighteous, for what justice could there be in a portion of the community—the landlords—wishing to levy a tax on the rest, they being rich and the rest poor ? Surely it required no great oratorical power, no mighty powers , of eloquence, to • show the in justice of such an abominable scheme.—(ffe.ar,) If this tax were raised in this manner for the purpose of supplying the wants of the State and the necessity of the public, and were a just mode of remunerating any part of the community who were serviceable to the State, surely there ought to be some systematic mode of calculating what amount such a tax would produce. Some mode ought also to be proposed of showing how much each individual who had done service to the State ought to receive, from the highest officer to the lowest subaltern. For instance when the Minister of State brings forward his Budget, he makes his particular estimates for the army or navy, and states what amount he expects from a certain tax, what portion of the revenue the army and navy will require, and apportions the amount which every officer, of all grades in both services, is to receive, from the highest grade to the low est ; all have their specifi c amounts a ll otted to them. Now, if the Corn-tax is meant for the support of the aristocracy, let the same principle be observed; let the people know what is the amount to be received in the whole, what amount is to be appropriated to each landowner, from the greatest to the smallest, in the agricultural interest, even down to the labourer. They would then know what each received in pro. portion to the station he might occupy in society. The thing would then be done in a business-like mariner ; they should know what was received by . Lord This or Lord That, or Mr. So-and-So, from the landlord down to the plough-boy ; they would know what was contributed to each individual, and what the people had to pay. But at present they never knew the precise amount they had to pay the landowners; in this way the people deceived themselves, and the landowners themselves were under a great deception.--(Hear, hear.) When they looked at the operation of this law, they at once per ceived that the effects it produced were of the most malignant character—effects that denounced at once the wickedness of the enactment, that brought on the destitution and misery he saw around him. How did the tax operate? The effects of the duty, or he would call it the penalty, on the importation of corn fromabroad, was to raise the value of corn marketed in exact proportion as the penalty adds to the first cost of the article brought from abroad. The consequence is, that it raises the price of bread in this country in a time of scarcity (for it has no effect at other times) to an enormous extent. Thus, if a family consume every day a quantity of bread, at the price it ought to be when wheat was cheap, to the amount of Bd. a day, when a duty or pas natty on the importation of corn', is laid on, such as that at present existing, it raises the price to something like Is. ; that was ad. a-day difference to each labouring family, and 4d. a-day on each family would amount in the aggregate to upwards of thirty mi lli ons per annum— ( H ear , hear)—and the whole of that amount was, by the operation of the Corn- laws, withdrawn from the manufacturing market, The con sequence of the decrease in the demand in the home market was an increase of exports, much of it on speculation, and consignment to foreign agents; and he had remarked in his own commercial experience that when bread was cheap in England the consignments to agents abroad decreased ; but when bread became dear, it diminished the home demand, and gave rise to those gluts in the foreign market which led to mercantile bank ruptcies, the stoppage of mills, and the misery of. the VOrking classes. The evil had been ascribed to over-production, but this wy S fallacy. There was not au over-productieas )'"" ~.._U t. < , ~ ~. . ,an under-consumption.—( Hear, hear.) The distress was not partial, but general. It was not confined to Manchester or Paisley, but was spread over every town and village in the kingdom, and was shared by the agricultural labourer himself, who was miserably affected by the Corn• laws, for this class l of men were now receiving not more on an average than from seven shillings to eight shillings a week. —( Hear, hear. ) : He defied the agriculturists to show him that the wages had advanced under these circumstances. It was not to he expecte,: that they would, because the farmer had always a snrplus quan: 'ity of labourers at his command. In all agricultural districts there would necessarily be a great number of la hourers who were seeking employment from the far mers. The cause of this was plain enough. Ever) farmer, whatever might be the extent of his farm, em ployed a given number of labourers, and that number had been employed upon the farm from time immemorial. He asked a "armer in Essex the other day what number of labourers were required for the management and tillage of a farm of one hun lred acres. He replied that five men would be sufficient. Suppose these men had five sons, what, he ask e d, wou l d aecome of them ? .. Why," was the reply, " th^y must look out for employment elsewhere."—( Hear, hear.) These per sons had all those local attachments which were common t,. human nature, and, doubtless, would prefer to remain in the neighbourhood where they were born; if they went to an other, it would be from dire necessity. It was not to be sup posed that the farmer, more than any other class of men would raise the wages of his labourer unless he were com pelled to do so; that, whilst he could obtain labour at a cheaper rate, he would say to his labourers, " Because of your indigence and distress, I will advance your wages one or two shillings a week." It was not to he credited; and even if it were likely to be the case, the labouring man ought net to depend upon such commiseration.--(Hear, hear.) He should receive his wages because his services were indispensable, and because he was able to say, " You shall have my services at such a 'price ; and if you are not wil• -; ling to pay that sum, I will - go elsewhere for ern ployment."—( Hear, hear.) That was the position in which every labouring man' should be placed. But the Corn-laws utterly prevented him from occupying that position. By the excess of labour in the agricu!tural districts, he was driven to the commercial districts to seek employment ; and if the Corn laws operated in such a manner as first to diminish the means of support, and secondly, the demand for labour, how could the agricultural labourer*, find employment in the manufacturing districts, except by competing with the labourers, who were there already, and reducing their wages ?--( Hear, hear.) So that, in fact, the operation of the Corn-laws was to reduc, wages to the most miserable pittance imaginable. The land lords held out the delusion that if bread were dear, wages must necessarily he high ; but if that reasoning were correct, it was evident that if, in a manufacturing country bread was dear, wages must be proportionately enhanced.—( Hear, hear.) And, for the same reason, when bread was cheap, wages must be reduced. Where, then, was the humanity of those legislators who adopted such a law as the Corn-law? The sole object of the law was to secure sordid gain to one class. There was a distinction between the different kinds of grain. It was a holy, sanctified gain, when the buyer and seller were both benefited ; but it was unholy and un sanctified gain when one man extracted from the pocket of another by violence, what would be supposed to en rich himself. Those who held the reins of power made this law to benefit one particular class ; he denied that they hao any such right. The legitimate power of the Legislature wa , a power to impose taxes for the pecuniary exigencies of th, State; they had no right to impose a tax upon one portion o! the c immunity for the benefit of another.—(Hear, hear, and cheese.) They had no right to vote away the property of the people, except for the use of the State.--( Hear, hear.) It was to prevent such abuse, that by the Constitution of this country neither the Crown nor the aristocracy were permitted to impose taxes.—( Hear, hear.) They were called upon, then, as a body, to denounce the Corn and Provision-laws which so deeply afflicted the country, and to make every effort in their power to secure the abolition of those wicked and pernicious laws. If not repealed, the result would, in the end, be as fear • ful to the aristocracy and the landed proprietors themselves, as it had been to the poor man, from whose house it had swept every vestige of comfort.—( Hear, hear.) It was evident that such must be the case. It was manufactures and commerce which had given such immense value to the large estates of the country. If, therefore, through the operation of these laws, the working people were driven to other countries, the -landlords would suffer equally with the other classes of so ciety.—(Hear.) The labourer and the capitalist would seek in America those advantages which were denied to them in England; and the result would be that the landlords would be eaten up by the paupers who remained, and were inca pable of gaining a sustenance.--(Hear, hear.) Let them all lend their energies to prevent such a disaster. Let them endeavour to gain access to the minds of the Members of Pars liament, by publications, by speeches, and by every available means of producing convietion.—(Cheers.) As patriots they could have no more glorious object than that of coming for ward to repudiate and assist in abolishing a system of mono. poly—eionopoly which, in its own nature, and stripped of all delusion, was the pewer of one man to plunder and ruin his fellow man.—( Hear.) As England had already declared of slavery, so let her now declare of monopoly— that it should exist no longer.—(Cheers.) As we were amongst the most prominent nations of the earth, we should show that we had our eyes open to the delusion of obtaining money by sinister means, of becoming rich by nefarious legisla tion. Then would that day arrive, whom all who 'believed in prophecy expected to arrive, when the promise would he consummated that all nations should be linked to gether by bonds of mutual interest and mutual ad vantage, so that war should no longer exist. He viewed the present as an occasion of the utmost importance. and not important to themselves alone, but to the inte-e,t of the whale family of man.—( Cheers.) He should therefore most cordially and zealously propose the following resolution : —" That this meeting is of opinion that a resolution ought to be submitted to the House of Commons, to the effect that the Corn and Provision•laws should be totally and immediately abolished ; and that the meeting re joices that Mr. Villiers has given notice of his intention to take the sense of the House upon the subject, and they re quest him to persevere in the course lie has taken, and to divide the House, upon all occasions, on the question of the total and immediate abolition of these laws." The following Gentlemen were then appointed to wait upon Mr. Villiers, on the subject:—The Chairman, the Mover and Seconder of the resolution, the Rev. Mr. Burdon, of Stroud, and the Rev. Mr. Bailey, of Sheffield. The Rev. Mr. CAIR.NES, of Paisley, in rising to second the ' resolution said, that the resolution passed at yesterday's Con ference gave a decided opinion upon the Provision and Corn laws. Those laws had been denounced as unjust in principle, and cruel in operation ; as opposite to Divine benevolence, and to the bounty of Providence ; as injurious to morality and religion : as fertile sources of disease and distress ; and as causes of discontent throughout the community. —( Hear,hear. ) The Conference also resolved to persevere in the course they had taken, and not to retire from the contest - till those infamous statutes were abolished.—(Cheers.) Almighty God had given fertility to the soil of the earth, year by year he had crowned the world with plenty, he had rained fertility from heaven that their hearts might be filled with gladness and with food, and these things show that his design was the intercourse of his creatures—(Cheers)—and not that monopolists, with daring effrontery, and recklessness, and selfish conduct, should step in with a veto upon his bountiful intent, and fill their coffers by despoiling the homes and habitations of their fellow men, of everything deserving the name of comfort.—(Cheers. ) It was right that the meeting, representing as it did a large portion of the inhabitants of the country, should be known to the Members of the House of Commons.—( Hear.) Those Members, at least the greater part of them, very little re garded the opinions of any others than their own. It was a perfect mockery to call the present a House repre senting the feelings of the people.--( Hear, and cheers. ) they ostensibly represented the opinions of the people, but the moment they entered the House they were their own masters. and held their own opinions.—(Cheers.) Was that- state of things to continue ?—(No, no.) It ought not—the people ought to be more respected than they were, and they soon would be if they were true to themselves.-- (Cheers. ) Let the people speak honestly and decidedly on every subject bearing on their interests, and then what Ministry would dare to trifle with them ?—( Cheers.) Let the working men, and those im mediately above them—and let the ministers - of religion, stand forward with them in their proper character, as friends of the people, to advocate every measure tending to their good, and soon,verysoon,the circumstances of the ceuntrywould be changed. The resolution which he was to second alluded to Mr. Villiers, and he must say he had laid the country under a deep debt of obligation to him, which it could not well repay.—(Hear, hear.) And while they rejoiced that he was again to bring forward his motion for a total repeal of the Corn-law, they should not be satisfied with that, but should persevere, and let the House of Commons know what they thought, and what support their representatives might theyexpei l w e hm tlte s e t a again to solicit their votes.—(Cheers.) in very important position as the Delegate of Paisley.— (Hear, hear.) He was not alone the representative of his own congregation, but of six others, the ministers of which would have been there, in their own persons, if the unfortunate circumstances of that town had not kept them back.—( Cheers. ) He might be permitted to say that Paisley was once a pros perous and happy place, and was remarkable over the whole country for the piety of its inhabitants, and for their enlightened and liberal sentiments, and for their activity in every righteous cause.—( Cheers.) But what a melancholy change had come over that town ! Since Midsummer, two-thirds of the mer -chants and manufacturers had become insolvent ; shops had been closed in every direction, and those still open were draw int, little more than the expense of gas-light. In tenfrewshire, 17,555 depended on a charitable supply for their support. In the town of Paisley alone, according to the report which lie held in his hand, there were 14,777 persons in a destitute con dition, to whom, during the last week, 497 had been added, and who were supported by the private fund which was col lected for their support, as well as by the public fund. His brother ministers exerted themselves in the most exemplary manner in the circumstances in which they were placed. They went from house to house collecting funds for the support of this poor suffering people.--(Hear, hear.) He should also make mention of the conduct of the Magistrates there, who exerted themselves in the most praiseworthy manner, and among these the Provost was particularly conspicuous for his humane conduct—agentleman known to be of the most liberal sentiments, and who earned for himself on this occasion greater fame than he ever procured by his generous conduct before.—(Cheers.) He and hit brother ministers felt deeply interested in the state of the suffering people in the midst of whom they were placed. He and his Reverend Brethren knew many connected with their churches who would not come forward to incur the dekr,sa dation of asking or receiving relief in a public manner. Anxious to save their feelings, he and his brother ministers astspealed by circulars to the various religious denominatieos of the land ; and he took this public opportunity of moat gratefully acknow ledging the assistance these kind Christians had given them. (Cheers.) The Episcopaliank the Presbyterians, the Metho dists, in short all the various religious classes of the country, had sent relief to Paisley, and were still sending it, and more he feared would be still required to get the people through the period of distress ; for in addition to the 14,771 persons wbo were publicly supplied with relief, he was within the mark in stating that they had 1,500 persons also who were supplied in the private manner he had just stated. There were 2,000 persons and 400 or 600 young persons, who were receiving a course of education to keep them from the ways of evil and ruin. They had endeavoured during the whole of this disastrous period to lay out the funds entrusted to them in the most econom i cal manner ; and he hoped that tl s blessings o f G od would rain in abundance git those Cs- • ..e churche s an d on those kind frie wil who had thus I" aristian 1" .inerally hissup phleiedwasj p u o st o i r fie fe d llo in wk w-town i sr, th — ese { Hoehn ...ar. ) H e trusted from 9, 444* which tiad _.ervations, as he came other finder the Pre""' suffered more than any -- he w as aware ths-' ." sYstenl•—( Hear, hear.)

Let any per illie i v w e o r s u a l d l o ur sc s e e n e e of distress, commercialour a o n st d operatives, even whet, they could obtain employment, toiling at tasks far more severe and exhausting than those which used to be extracted by the moat heartless slaveholder of the colonies from thebenes and muscles which were his due property ; but the operative was often deprived of the privilege of this murderous la bour; in the dwellings of the operative the spectator would behold the most appalling destitution. Let one further think of the thousands on thousands of parents suffering acutely, yet who would endure this if they suffered alone ; but their hearts were agonized, as from day to day they saw their helpless little ones thanrising up i n rags an d s t a rvation, uneducat e d, b ut i n a state of preparati o n to come forward rather a pest a useful a ccess i on t o soc iety.—(Hear, hear.)

Now his answer was, that whatever odium or reproach might wadi to him and his brethren around him and throughout the e )untry on this account, they were ready to bear it al in such A came.—(Cheers.) They could bear all this and mere.— (Cheers.)

Therefore the ministers could bear all that might be said against them, feeling that they had the eool wishes of the poor, and the prayers of the pious in the land, and knowing also that they had the sympathy of that God, who as his diseensations declared, " For the oppression if the poor, and for the sighin" of the needy, n o w will I arise, saith th e Lord."—(flear,hear. ) But this was not a political question. He took his ground on the principle that this was a great moral question, involving the morality and the religion of the people of this land to an inconceivable extent. When they regarded this vast and wealthy metropolis, or the provinces, as to their use of those means of religion with rut, which piety could not flouri h--would they not find that igreat multitudes of men an d women were, through the necese sities resulting from those infamous Corn-laws, prevented from appearing in the gate of the Daughter of Sion, and par ticipating in the public ordina nces o f re li g i on on the first day of the we e k ? And was it not too easy . to apprehend that these people were more likely to neglect their private devotions, and to be let on in the course of vice and ruin ?—(Hear, hear.) Must it not, too, be admitted that such continued sufferings end privations tended to undermine in the thoughts of the operative population all feelings of devotion, and revering faith in the Providence of God? Therefore religion joined social justice in urging him (Mr. C.) and his brethren to come for ward on this occasion to assist in removing the destitution that involve, so many awful causes. Did not religion call upon them to respond to the wailings of the needy and the cries of distress that were now rising from the hamlets, towns, and ,citi es , ' f and ringi ng alone the hills and dale s o f the country ?-( H ear, hear.) He sho u ld be ashamed of himself as a professing Christian, and blush as a Minister of the Gospel, indeed ha should be, almost worthy of eternal reproach, if he were re strained by any considerations from coming forward i n suc h a cause as this.—(Ch eers .) H e read in th Bible that he who withheld corn from the people shall have a curse on him. But this curse could not be expounded so as to refer only to the metropolis. No, it must be extended to every one who, when corn was withheld from the people, took no opportunity of saying or doing anything to relieve them—( Loud cheering)_ skulked away into the b ick ground, instead of coming out as he ought to do in the sight of God ! He cat ed not what station a man occupied whose conduct was such as this ; whether he found hire in the Chureh either as a Minister or a member whatever his station in society, he violated the law of God, and disgraced himself, and while the curse of the people lighted on him the frown of Almighty G ad would rest upon his head. —( Loud cheers.) Allowing, however, that this question was 'o be regarded as a political question, he was still prepared as a minister of the Gospel to protest against the statement that they had nothing to do with such matters. The cry of " clerical influence" was very easily raised, just on account of the side on which the minister might stand forth. Let high stand forth to advocate the cause of the starving many in opposition to the monopolising few, who had ever en trenched themselves behind class legislation, and he was the worst of men. Let. him take the other side, and not one word is said against him ; let him say one word for the poor, and the magazines of scurrility are poured out upon him.—( Loud cheers.) He (Mr. Cairne) held that polities were identified with the very existence of man in society ; there was no living man who had not certain duties to discharge, and no man was at liberty to retire from the activity of life.—(Cheers.) The Christian was (ailed on to do good to all men (Cheers) -as he had opportunity ; he was indeed bound to take care that he did not by any mischance give occasion for his good to be evil spoken of, bat he was imperatively' called on to follow the same mind which was in his Divine Mas ter, and to imitate him in this, that he went about conti nually doing gool.—( Hear, hear.) If the poor were to be relieved, human misery to be lessened, and human happiness to be advanced, the Christian was called on to avail himself of every means within his reach to bring about such blessings. He knew nothingof an abstract religion that could not be brought into action in dailylife; he knew nothing of aChristianity so delicate that the man who professed it might not mingle with his fellow.. man in his rational enjoyments, and stand side by side with bite when the good of society might be enlarged; he knew renthinge of a religion which required its ministers to give up the influ ence which their station afforded them to stay the course of the evil which surrounded them. Nothing to do with politica ! When they could ch inge their n itures as human beings, when they could destroy the relations which God Almighty had formed between man and man ; when they could so alter their lot, that no man should depend upon his fellow-man for comfort, assistance, and support, when each should stand "iso hated and alone—all independent of each other,- without any common sympathies to bind them; then might the cry be rais. ed, but riot till then, Nothing to do with politics I What ! were they to look on silently and indifferently, when, through i wicked class legislati on an d a l ong course o f monopoly and in justice, they see their country brought to the very verge of rebellion and ruin ; when they see their neighbours—with ahem, it may be, they have been wont to kneel at the family altar—kept. down year after year, their comforts abridged, and every feature in their lot indicative of misery, should they not rather stand prominently forth, denounce that system of monopoly, and declare what are the judgments which God has denounced on thosewho grind the faces of the poor?--( Hear.) 3lot.opolising• pa , ty spirit might inflict its evils on the cum munity for a little while longer, but there was no Government which would dare to trifle much longer with the suffering people of this country.—( Hear, hear.) Whatever the owners of the soil might think, Britain owed its chief glory to trade and commerce; the working classes constituted its very sinews and its greatest strength. —( Bear, hear.) It would be well if statesmen would consider this matter aright, look at the signs of the times, and mark what was going on in society. The working classes deserved commen dation for the patient manner in which they had demeaned themselves during their difficulties. The working classes in the district to which he belonged could not be too highly praised ; but let statesmen not depend too much on their en durance. Their patience unduly tried, their hopes everlast ingly blasted, their misery slighted and increased, ana every remaining comfort just about to be wrested from them, might lead to circumstances which those who did not mingle with the working classes might not be aware of and must deplore.—( Loud cheers.) The cup of suf fering was almost full—it would not hold much more, itindeed it were not even now running over—and it was high time that these abominable Corn-laws should be immediately and for ever repealed.—(Tremendous cheers.) He had much pleasure in supporting the resolution which had already been proposed. —(Mr. Cairne sat down amidst the most deafening applause i ) Mr. TAUNTON, of Coventry, rose with peculiar pleasure to support the resolution which had just been proposed and seconded. He did so because he thought it was high time that they brought those parties who were in the House of Commons to the test, that they might know who were the friends of England, and who were the friends of the aristocracy, He trusted that Mr. Villiers would at once proceed to divide tt l iS House on the subject of the Corn-laws. They had been contending for a long time, advancing arguments, gathering facts, and making statements to convince the Legislature of justice and necessity of repealing those obnoxious laws; yet it would be quite consistent with the character of the Legislature if they should appoint a Committee to inquire into that, with which every body else was acquainted ; but whenever the nation re quired the abrogation of certain laws, or others to be enacted. Honourable Gentlemen of the House of Commons moved that a• Committee be appointed to inquire into the circumstances, as if it were not their dnty to be acquainted with tile whol P of the facts. —.(Hear.) He had come as a deputation from the town of Coventry. from, the Anti-Monopoly Society of that city, to inform that meet o . ing that they would accept of nothing less than - , a total and entire repeal.—(Cheers.) They were resisters!, !pan no surrender, as it would be giving the power .:.of: k ee pi n g agitation. Any attempt to adopt the sliding, tittle would only break up for the present the the country in a most unw p i h se ala :t . e :f n p a n in wer e4 , ,, T . l . ,:,r. 4 ocuj . nemit : together; and at another. period the whole question worth[ have to be commenced again.--(Rear, hear.) The Society to which he belonged, and which he • was there to repre sent, was opposed to all monopoly ; to the monopoly of food, and commence in its fullest extent, and to that unjust and, wicked monopoly of class legislation, that system which had brought the country to its present state, in which a total a.., regard was shown for universal interests for the selfishrif,ss of a class.—(Cheers.) He was happy that the middle classes had become sympathisers with the labouring classes, and were determined to stand by them.—(Hear, hear.) Th► town of Coventry had been most infamously dealt with by...t.te system of class legislation as it respected its commerce. He alluded to the manner in which the ribbon tra"--, of that city had had to compete with the French, and.t)''e manner in which the Legislature had sanctioned in every possible way goods coming iu from foreign ports.—(Cheere.) he was an advocate for entire freedom of commerce, spa'itEnglish intellig ence and manufac tures could nut comv,:ie with other nations, he wouldbe greatly deceived when lie considered the intelligence and known i n . dustry of tlte people.—(Ch eers. ) He loved humanity, he loved his country too, but ho l ove d humanity bettel— (Cheers)—and if it was for the god of the Inm an race that England should fall, let it fall. Brat he did not believe that such a sacrifice was necessary ; he be lieved that the industry and intelligence of the people of Eng land would soon obtain for her entire justice. —( chem.) One that the a le of the reasons that had been stated as a cause which clogged the country in competing with foreigners was, that the er r were so heavily taxed. He was not going to say of this country were not taxed, but as far as a per centage was concerned he did not think they were so heavily taxed as other countries.—( Hear, hear.)
