I )1111' , My attention hay le oi drawn to a
letter appearing in the Trbyrant .4 to-lay upon the
" I/et-Aimee if Toryism in Donut." It is pm.
immably written by '' an Amused Radical," who by
Wl)' of retnrning whatever entertainuient ha in

arnuaing Radical. Poor Mr. 1./umphrey. meetiil to

Mr. Ihimphreys hax Men, and for aught I know now
connected with leather (like which there in
nothing), and the terniv. " Itermondevy tanner,"
"comma manipulator .pf raw helve," "working
man tanner," occur at intervals in the epistle. It is
no
new thing to hear the social po.ition of
ophounts scuffed at, and regretfully we must twine
to the conahmen ii. .t thie touch .4 Radical unture
proclaims our " amusing Itadicaf " like many of his
kidney —a snob. The verdict of the (smutty upon the
Cumphreys v. Chamberlain contain wax that though
defeated our late visitor wu by no means disgraced,
and if an example .4 an overwhelming majority is
wanted, reftrence might he made to the return for
the city of Lyiden, prOialtly the most enlightened
constituency in England. Let me also remind our
classic that it woe Gioiar not the trraele who came,

WARIIIIAN.
THE ALLOTMEXT titaortom. —Mr. Jesse Collings.
M.P., has written a letter to a gentleman at Ware-
ham, in reply to a commiinication respecting his
efforts on thelaboursni behalf, and the laying out of
allotments by Tory landowners. In the letter Mr.
Collings states—" I can assure you that any service
whirli I have. been able to tender to toy friends, the
labourers, btu been a labour of love, and I trust that
the tint,. ol not far distant when the hard lot of the
rural labourers of tine country will be lightened and
made brigher fur thew. There ii is. doubt that ono
result of our efforts in relation to allotments and smell
holdings has been, as you say, to make the Tory land-
lords nov. in the direction of supplying the wens, of
the men in a manner th tt they would not have done
but for thow• efforts and forth,, fact that the minnow
possess the rote."
