improving the dwellings of the poor assisted not a little
In promoting that which we heard • Reentries' of now-as
days—the education of the lower cloaca If every land-
owner would set as Lord Wasimiorter had done in that
eeighboarhood, they would bear very little indeed of
what he should always resist as long no he had a peat in
the [donee of Commons—a compulsory rate for the
edocalloo of the people—(ebeers). He had always
itaiontiord, and always should, that it wee the duty of
eoontry gentlemen, as far a. it was in their power, to
build cottages lor the poor on their estate., although he
knew very well that it did not pay. It muat be done be
cl-grees. for be knew that a man could net get • toed
pereeotag• for his money by oottap building; but still
he g.t something that wee more valuable than rent, is
S.. lower I kneirleige of baying done something to
promote the eotnfort and b ippincs. of the peasantry of
the country—(bear, hear, and cheer.). He would say •
me, for the advice of country genisinen and
lam nnenekee, that if they wished to keep
their pleat and be looked up to and respected, they must
do 'hairdo', in that stated life in which it had pkathd
hod to place them —(oheen). Fie wished next to a., a
word or two to the icemen of Donsetshire sal of the
country in general. He Wee sore they would Grease
hini—nod he hoped the rev. goitleinso present would
accuse him if he said the termere of this country had
not got enough devil about theon--(Laghter). He said—
and he did so adeitedle—that the fanners and the
agriculture' interest of this coontry snff red inituitioe
and hardship which no other class in the Gaited
Kiiißdom would put up with —(hear, hear). His would
teke. for instant..., the cattle plague. That was a matter i
which was no doubt in the Steely reeollection of •great
many gsntleinen in that room. In 1866 olive than fifty
out .1 every 100 cattle in this conntry diet of pleura ,
pnettrannit. In the station of 1866, after the Cattle ;
Plague Bill was passed. only one per eent of cattle were
'net in this country. Well, it wee only fair, it was only .
juit, that the Legisistare should piss nieasores against
• repetition of what he thought he might safely sell •
gnat ii tional crlamity. But bow were they met?
They recollected that is the Hones of Croomou• this
year a bill we, brought forward called the Metropolitan
Cattle Market Bill. That wee merely a bill to guard
seainst the retietition of the scourge ; but it wee hoot.,
out of the licelql of Gonmens—(hear, hear, and cheer.).
Well, that was an act of true injustice, and nee which
the agrien'kural Intelsat, if they bad any spirit about
them, would not tolerate—(hear, hear, and enotoe).
Healthy cattle meant prospetity to the farmer sod cheap
food for the people; and diarists,' tattle meant ruiii to
the agricaltoral intones*. end had meat for the people.
He confessed that he lied hoped, And still hoped, that
the jealousy between town and county esoi at an end,
more pertienlerly when the agriculturists merely
demanded the benefit of enlightened leataleti•ne blear,le
agriculture. which would inarevie the productions of the
etuntry, and thereby cheapen the food at the people
(hear, heat). That was one care, and be would now
bring theta another, and give them a little advice by and
by. They suffered inimaiee from not bar ng
mo,rvelitoa cattle market in London, and from not
haenne a repeal of the malt tax—(bese, hear). He would
read k. them an egtreet frau the report of • *morainee
of the Roost of et/flllllOOl on the malt tar, net a packed
commiitee, but half one way and half the other, who
examined several agriculturists of great etperience from
all parts of the country. They said :
