RRADLAUGH v. LORD LYTTIMTON AND
PUBLIC OPINION.
To the Editor of the " Obserrer.-

SIR,—I notice in the Ilirtianyham bay ,Gtts. fle for
Wednesday, Nov. 29th, " That Lord Lyttelton liss:ad-
dressed a letter to the Stourbride Town Commissionern.
requesting them to re-consider their decision in allowing
Mr. Bradlaugh the use of the Corn Exchange;forithe
delivery of two lectures (viz.), • The impeachment of the
8.0.0 of Brunswick, and • The Land, the People,Cand the Coming Struggle: And that "The Bosrl bare
decided to inform his Lordship that they have no power
in the matter as the room, together with the Market
Hall, is leased to Mr. S. G. Smith, who can:let the room
for whatever purpose he way think proper."
As an inhabitant of Stourbridge, and • disciple of po.
litical and religious liberty, I beg to thank the gentle-
manly Board of Stourbride for the very courteous sad
candid manner they have decided to answer Lord Lyttel-
ton, and also to inform hi, lordship that his arbitrary
interference and express attempt to prohibit public die
CUSSiOII OD national questions, does not :augur well for
his present creel and future position, and respect:n.l,
inform him that be can be better employed in trying to
keep the " House " in order he is • member of, instead
of iuterfering with the House of Brunswick.
As there are always two aides to a question (sod we
admit that we do not accept the whole of 11,. B.s, we rem
pectfull " request' his Lordship to attend the lecture.,
and controvert the objected propositions or if it amnia
not be considered compatible with his exalted position tO
descend to the political arena of debate, we beg to sug-
gest that he exercise his great influence in sending an
able man to oppose Mr. Bradlaugh and defend the Hotta
of Brunswick, or the principle of Monarchy r. llepublic.
This course, in our humble opinion, would be for more
satisfactory to the public, more creditable to himself, and
more honourable to the Queen, than to at onm tyranni-
cally exercise a poworfol influence in attempting to stifle
free enquiry, and cripple the right of free discussion. A
free platform and a free press is an Boglishumuss jewel,
and all we ask is a fair hearing, and will be happy to
retarn the compliment, and to show that we are not afraid
of our principles public discussion is invited at the close
of each lecture.

HoLLoWAY s OINTmENT AND Pzu.B.—At the present
time much watchfulness must be exercised, and the ear.
liest evidences of 111 health immediately checkiid. or •
alight illness may result in a serious malady. Relaxed
and sore throat, diphtheria, guinsey, coughs, chronic
cough, bronchitis, and most other pulmonary affections
will be greatly relieved by rubbing this cooling Ointment
into the skin as nearly as practicable to the seat of mi.
chief. This treatment, at once simple and effective, is
admirably adapted for the removal of such diseases din-
ing infancy and youth. Old asthmatic invalids will de-
rive marvellous relief from the use of Holloway's reme•
dies, which have brought round many such sufferers, and
re-established health after every other means had sig-
nally failed.
