had mentioned his name i am to address the here in the market place to morrow and i should have been sorry to do so without st paying my respects privately to my chief friends as there may be points on which they particularly wish me to explain myself you speak sir and reasonably said mr with a vague short sighted gaze in which a candidate s appearance evidently went for nothing pray be seated gentlemen it is my habit to stand he placed himself at a right angle with his visitors his worn look of intellectual eagerness slight frame and rusty attire making an odd contrast with their flourishing persons costume and comfortable freedom from excitement the group was fairly typical of the indifference between the men who are animated by ideas and the men who are expected to apply them then he drew forth his spectacles and began to rub them with the thin end of his coat tail he was inwardly great self mastery � the thought of his personal needs which s presence tended to in order that he might be equal to the larger duties of this occasion i am aware � mr has told me said what good service you have done me already mr the fact is a of intellect like you was especially needed in my case the race i am running is really against only who calls himself a liberal though he cares for nothing and understands nothing except the interests of the wealthy and you have been able to explain the difference between liberal and liberal which as you and i know is something like the difference between fish and fish your comparison is not sir said mr still holding his spectacles in his hand at this epoch when the mind of the nation has been strained on the passing of one measure where a great weight has to be moved we require not so much selected instruments as abundant horse power but it is an evil of these massive achievements that they encourage a coarse of more nicely wrought results and an exaggerated expectation inconsistent with the of our fallen and struggling condition i say not that compromise is unnecessary but it is an evil at tend ant on our and i would pray every one to mark that where compromise intellect and conscience are thrust into room wherefore it has been my object to show our people that there are many who have helped to draw the car of reform whose ends are but partial and who not the principle of selfish but would only substitute for egypt � thinking chiefly of their own share in gold and ivory just so said who was quick at new languages and still quicker at other men s into his own special and immediate purposes men who will be satisfied if they can only bring in a buy up the land and stick the old on their new now the practical point to secure against these false at present is that our should not divide their as it appears that many who vote for are likely to split their in favor of i the radical it is of the first consequence that my should give if they divide their they can t keep out and they may help to keep out me i feel some confidence in asking you to use your influence in this direction mr we have to praise ourselves more than is graceful but you are aware that while i be � long by my birth to the classes that have their roots in tradition and all the old my experience has lain chiefly among those who make their own career and depend on the new rather than the old i have had the advantage of considering national welfare under varied lights i have wider views than those of a ni re cotton lord on questions connected with religious liberty i would stop short at no measure that was not thorough i hope not sir � i hope not said mr gravely finally putting on his spectacles and examining the face of the candidate whom he was preparing to turn into a for the good conscious of his political importance as an organ of persuasion felt it his duty to a little and also to do his part toward a probable with a sense of his responsibility but the latter branch of duty somewhat the for his mind w as so urged by considerations which he held in danger of being overlooked that the questions and answers bore a very slender proportion to his it was impossible to leave the question of church without noting the grounds of their injustice and without a brief of reasons why mr for his own part would not present that passive resistance to a legal which had been adopted by the friends whose heroism in this regard was nevertheless worthy of all honor comprehensive are apt to be tiresome when we are not for information but to he quite fair we must admit that superior is a good deal due to the lack of matter speech is often barren but silence also does not necessarily brood over a full nest your still fowl at you without k may all the while be sitting on one nest egg and when it takes to will have nothing to announce but that delusion was not at all a patient man but in matters of business he was quite awake to his cue and in this case it was perhaps easier to listen than to answer questions but who had plenty of work on his hands took an opportunity of rising and saying as he looked at his watch i must really be at the office in five minutes you will find me there mr ti you have probably still many things to say to mr i you sir said the minister changing color and by
