biome in the Liberal party. lie, as you know, greatly
die turbed the borough-mongers. I recollect reading an
account of Lord John Russell's speech in Introducing
the Reform Bill, end some member, I forgot now his
name, sod I think he was not much of a borough-
monger, if at all ; but he paid, as he beard the speech,
and the gradual explanation of this groat outscore, that
his hair stood on so sod ; and what moat have been
is effeot I know out upon that rich baiter at Leeds,
of whom I think I have once before spoken to you, who
odd that if the members for Gotten and Old Sarum, or
any two of them, were transferred to Leeds, he should
think it necessary to remove his beak, with his gold
and silver, to some quiet town like Pumfrot—(loughter.)
But then the result of the dietorbance of th.• borough-
mongers was this, that the country Was saved from
anarchy and civil war, and the pessing of that groat
m- azure made the growth of the tree of friedom in this
country certain and perpetual—(hear, hear) ;—and
not long ath r we disturbed another set of people—
(laughter),—l mean those who in that day were called
the Old Corporator', the men who were the officials of
the corrupt end unreformed corporations to the country.
Why, they were busy mostly in a I kinds of jobbery for
their own interest with the funds of tbe corporation. I
am told that In one town not far from here the corpor-
ation regularly soli the seats in parliament, and applied
the money in an economical and in a somewhat
judicious way in the Improvement of the town. Why,
what would you think if your oorporation put up the
three seats for Birmingham in the market—the
political market—end offered some of these great con-
tractors, Australian merchants, and landed proprietors
permanent seats in parliament as members for Birming-
ham if they would give you ten or twenty thousand
pound, a-piece, and then you would apply that money
to some purposes of Birmingham improvement? Well,
that is what was done, I sin told, in • borough not far
from this town ; but after the Reform Bill—the Cor-
poration Reform Bill—was passed • new state of things
arose, and we have bad since then—l believe everybody
toted admit, taking into consideration the state of
intelligence and virtue of our population—we have had
in all Our great boroughs • very admirable system of
Ice,! and municipal gem rnmeot—(hear, bear). But the
reformed parliament went on with these disturbances ;
the people of England beard the cry of anguish from
the West Indian Colonies ; every breeze from the west
brought with It the sound of the sufferings and torture"
of nearly • million in population. And the Liberal
party—for it was they who did it—they not only heard
this, but they resolved to abate the evil, and they did
it in • manner by which they offeted what I will call
lavish jostles and consideration to the planter, at
the sone time that they extended perfect and complete
mercy to the slave—(hear, hear, and cheers); and by
and by there got up another gnat question—failing
harvests, failing trade, and suffering people, which
brought up • champion to abolish the hated system of
protection. Trade was strangled, the poor were stricken
with famine ; and then we had disturbed lords and
dukes, and Noires and fernisre, and, I am sorry to say,
not a few clergymen—(laughter)—were distressed and
harrassed to an alarming degree— (hear, hear). One
duke—if I recollect right—geld that the country would
not be worth living in—(laughter), and Hist they should
go abroad—(applause and laughter); but a Sussex
peasant—not • distant neighbour I suspect of tlnt duke
—slaked, "They beass't going to take the land with
them, be they r —Ural laughter and applause); end
the duke, as you know, did not go abroad. He
remained to the end of his life as much attaehed as ever
to his an/astral acres, and now doubtless he sleeps
tranquilly in that smell portion of his vast estates
which is enough finally for the great duke and for the
peasant —(hear, hear). Well, but the dukes were not
all, the farmers thought they were injured, and Mr.
Chowler—(latighter)-70u recollect Mr. Chowler—(re-
newed laughter)?—he said they bad more horses than
anybody else, and they knew how to ride them, and
they would rather ride down upon Manchester than urn
Parb, but, fortunately for that ledustriour unwalled,
and undefended town, Mr. Chewier relented, •nd
Manchester was spared—(laughter). Well, but five-
and-twenty years have passed sines that disturlyog and
that:hemming of all these great interests, and where are
we now ?—(laughter). Why, every man, duke and
lord, and replies and parson, and peasant and mauu-
f.cturer, and merchant and artisan,

ported from abroad—trade his extended to fourfold its
thou amount—work is far more plentiful and wore
stable as you all know—wages are from 21) to 30 per
per rent. h.gber throughout the country. As to farm
labourers • writer in the Saturday heriew said, not tong
ago, that if the farm labourer wee a son of agriculture
be WOO a disinherited obill—(applarne). The farm
labourer, abject, soli ring, and neglected, is now find-
ing that the beneficont shower iti even &tic:ming upon
him—)applause. Why, I have beard Mr. Disraeli in
the house ef COU3ll3ool—(hiases an 1 groaes).—when
cleim,ug from Parliament compensation for the abolitiun
if the corn laws, I have bawd him say that he would
rest his whole case upon the condition—that Is, upon
the future condition—of the agricultural labourer.
Well, I met about a year ago a moo doing WWI work
for my firm uuder. • o intraotor. Lie WAS lookkg rather
weekly aud ill, and I entered into conversation with
Lim, sod asked him where he owns from. He said he
was just recovering from an illnese of many weeks ; that
he had only just returuod to his work; the', ho was •
native of the county of Buckingham, Mr. Disraeli's own
county. He solo that when he WWI a lad, and that was
about thirty years ago, his father went to work
regularly for the wages Of seven shillings • week
(hisses). And he said further, that when be left Buck-
inghluoshire wages had got up to eleven shillings, and
he added, "I have hoard lately that they are at
fourteen'—(hear, bear). Therefore, I say that the dig-
turbanoe that set free the iudustry of this country,
which doubled the wages of the humble labourers,
amongst whom Mr. Diereeli moves wheu he is at Lis
country home, that disturboica is not to be condemned,
but is one of those great things for which we may take
credit, &lid in which we may glory—(hear, hear). Now,
If there was nobody to speak but myself, and! were able
to do it, I might go through I do not know how
many cases of the game kind. One or two I will
refer to. Take the ease of the shipping interest for
example. Why, the great shipowners were terrified be-
cause the navigation laws were to be repealed, and it
was gall that your mercantile navy would rot in your

knew nothing about It. But the result of the abolition
of the navigation laws has been to give • vast increase
to the shippiPg of the ocnatry, such as was never
conceived possible. There is noises' a bay, or harbour,
nor • spot on the watery surface of the globe which is
not visited by the ships of your magnificent commercial
marine. There is now no doubt that the shipping
interest would be extremely sorry to go back to the
system which we attacked and they would have upheld.
There is another point which I wish you, working men,
to pay particular attention to, and that is wish respect
to the newspaper press. Thirty years ago the news-
paper press of Ens/laud was strangled. They durst not
do as they do in FIWZIOO and other countries, suppress
It; but they managed to strangle it effectually in other
ways. The paper itself had an Imola tax upon it to
nearly equal its own value; and it had a stamp in one
corner of it, absolutely exceeding the value of the
paper; and besides this, every sivertbiement at that
time, although it was only one line, "Wanted, a
gardener; apply 8o and loo," bore • tax three times
as much as you now pay for the advertisement itself, to
such an extent was the newspaper press stesogled and
depreeted What is the ease now? First the tax same
off advertisements; cent we did away with the stamp
duty; and at lest with the excise duty on paper.
Many of the papers were moat bitterly harassed and
distressed. They were ODO of those distressed intereata,
The Films grieved dreadfully about IL You will
recollect what • miseraWe towlines" it wee; and then
the late Lord Derby, who, I think, was one of the most
passionate and Ignorant political leader", dared to use
his majority in the Houses of Lords to raj 'at the bill for
the repeal of the paper duty after Mr. Gladstone had
carded it through the Howie of Commons. I should
think that if there was any class in the country to which
It was necessary to give some knowledge of Lots and
some decent kind of political education it WOO tine fury

which we eff. red the of obtainthis great slums

thing now It has passed. For thirty years in the House
of Commons men discussed the question of church rates,
and what did the clergy say—oot all of them by • great
many I think--hut what did their friends in the House
of C 'moons say? that if you abolish church rates,
if you did not tax the Wesbearis, Independents,
and all the rest of the Dissenterowhiob seemed to keep
up the churches, the churches would go to decay.
Why, It was • scandalous imputation upon churchmen.
But what lay-voted? A clergymen was speaking to me
about it this very week. Why,i believe there ie nobody in
the kiogdom who is any the WON° for the abolition of
church rata ; nor in there one single church, I believe, in
the kingdom that has been allowed toga more into decay

gentlemen on the otter aide 41 the house, end was sup-
ported II gentlemen on the ether sido of tte bonne arid

I believe that any uniunre--aty reasonable mesatint
—as reasonable men would judo°, in regard to this
trade, if It wens an advantage to the public at largo,
would be still more full of blessing to the families of the
publicans themselves. But parliament is riot desirous,
is not likely, nor it the Liberal piety, nor Is the present
government, to deal unjustly or barehly with any body
of MOO. And I beg to express my opinion—you may
not take it to be worth much, but still I give it—that
they are not wise, even for their own hsterestm that
they should say to the great Liberal party, triumphing
in the past, destined to triumph in the future, " We
deem you our natural enemy, and in all election
cantata you shall feel the strength of our tesentment "
—(shears). Well, I bens shows, I thick, that it we
have made disoirbaoce, if we made men anxious, If we
have barsaged Masses or trades, trade has not suffaied,
and the good of all per pie hes in reality been conaultet ;
but what happens wlnn they are in and we are out.
They came in in 1841 under Sr Robert Peel with a
majority of ninety, and in 1848 they repealed the oorn
laws—not tbe whole party, but one hundred of them,
with Sir Robert Peel and his colleagues joining the
Morale to do that great act of justice, while they went
into parliament pledged to the lips to the maintenance
of protection. Why these poor Fentsee, abut whom
we ere reading, who swear great oaths by the blue coat
of General M'Cartby—buttons and all— why, air, they
do not make more dreadful vows than did the
Protectionist and Conservative members to aupport the
Corn Laws for ever. And yet within five years their
great leader, mad accomplished and able statesman, now
of historical greatness and renown, was obliged to turn
round and do the very thing which we advocated, and
which his party had almost sworn never to do—
(applause). And then in 18811—that Is only the other
day—yon recoiled what they did ; they said that the
bill Introdueed by Lord Russell and Mr. Gladstone for
the etten•lon of the borough franehise to £7, and the
lowering of the county franchise to £l2 or £l4, I forget
which, that it was a measure of a most desperately
democratic tendency, and they said it would give
working men control over the elections, and they would
be masters of perliament—(laughter). Well, having
by them arguments, arid mat y others equally stupid—
(laughter), destroyed the bill, and got rid of the
government, Mary came into offioe, and in the very next
year, the very next session, votelet three parts of the
house were gone to chnuer—(laughtei), the leader of
the house at that time, who now tells us that we are
haraioing every bedy, occsented to the exteesion of the
franchise to every householder in boroughs, leading
necessarily to the exteneion of the francl&e to bons,
holders in the counties—(appltuse), and leading,
necessarily, too to other thbigs, some of which are Ojos

IHE GI. .ISRAL ELEUTION.
NEW MEMBERS: PERSONAL AND POLITICAL

CEIANGES.

The country has resolved upon a change of Ministers.
140 ' new " members have been already returned to the
new Parliament. Mr. Gladstone had been taunted with
fearing to facts his oonstituents at Greenwich, but the
Premier was re-elected, though plead seemed to Mr.
Broad, the Con ITO representative. Tbe returns
for the metropolitan elections show • marvellous change
In the repreeentstion. In the election of 11368 the Coe-
servetives obtained only two seate—one for the Oity
ureter the provision for the representation of minoriteon
and one for Westminster; and although they afterwardi
obtained • third by the 11u00•111 of Colonel Beresford at
Southwark, and • fourth by Mr. Beord'm at Greenwich
In August last, the loss of Mr. Bell's seat for the City
reduced the total to three. The returns ef Friday give
them no less than tan. seats—three In the City, two for
Westminster„ and one each. for Merylebone, Charlie*,
Grtehoich, Southwark, end the Tower Hamlets. This
I, • net gain of seven seats. It includes Mr. Forsyth,
