THE EARL OF RRAFFESBURY ON THE

The mien of artistes by a Wykshamist +Melt sp.

beim His lordship save :
The question of Ltd rieriltura labourer has essumed

Perhaps, se in that oeuntry, it thews le cull el Im-

disown the signs of th.• times. No one can deny that,
during tbe last forty ytan, or even more, the (rendition
of our rural population, In all it. satiate has been
such as to demand tho attention of over, thinking man.
The riots and ineendiary violenme at the pried of the
Reform Rill, in 1832, sufficiently Indicated their usury

were the oomplaints that they maks ti-day; lad there
would have been much wisdom on the part of the
landed proprietors had they, wham the fever had sub-
sided, looked Into the cause cud eons, queues@ of the
general 0./Treat°. The objection then, se it le the
objection nue-easel in both invent), a ta thruway
othorted—was that the whole was the work of agitators
and revelationists, It may be se, but Out the lees it is
besessary to trace the whole matter, sud amends
whether the agitators have real trotted, of ureter to

or two matters *Melt may seem to be of minor impot,
UMW But minor they are not in respect of the
domestie anagemeats and pausal life of the labour-
ing man. He speak! far too glibly in disparagement of
the proposition that 'farmer. shell pay in money, never
partly in beer." I am n 41111184 that such • system
would be both preettable stud benefielid in all the Items
of health, effielety, and thrift. I do not deny the
difficulties of the first Institution of it, raised, alike, by

to be of opinion that unions are now inevitable, and

the peasants to join a union ; but every MALI has a
