SATURDAY, APRIL 10th, 1880.
THE ELECTIONS.

That Great Britain still retains her place
in the councils of Europe is amply attested
by the fact that the -utmost interest in the
progress of the contests has been manifested
all over the continent. The nation which
has inscribed upon its banners such names
as Cressy and Agincourt, Waterloo and
SebaAtopol, finds after centuries of active
political life that in Paris and Berlin, in
Vienna, and in Rome, in St. Petersburg and
in Constantinople, in the capital of Greece
no less than in the island of Cyprus, the
people have been watching the progress of
the electoral battle in this country. The
home of liberty and the mother of free Par- i
liaments sees her action watched from all I
the centres of civilization—a striking tribute
to the commanding position which she
occupies amongst the peoples. It cannot be
said that Englishmen reciprocate this interest
when contested elections are going on in
other European lands—save perhaps with
the single exception of France. When
Marshal MacMalion dissolved the Chambers
in the autumn of 1877, the result was un-
questionably watched with a great deal of
anxiety on this side, of the Channel. But
this remark would scarcely be applicable to
the elections to a new German Parliament,
to an Austrian Reiehsrath, to an Italian
Chamber, or to an assembly of represen-
tatives at Constantinople. That all these
people should take an interest in the English
elections is a strong testimony to the indi-
viduality of the nation, and to the influence
in the courts of Europe, which after long-
rolling ages of active life, it is still enable
to exercise.
The elections must have produced upon
every one—in whose mind chagrin or
triumph has left mow for calm reflection
tlie same impression llowever strong may
have been his previous sense of the un-
certainty attending the results of all appeals
to the cohstituencies and of the extreme
obscurity of the conditions under which
those results were obtained, his opinions in

_
this subject must have been indefinitely
strengthened by the events of the last few
days. If before this lie was disposed to
doubt whether anyone could approximately
frame a probable forecast of the issue of an
electoral struggle, doubt is now likely to
take the form of absolute denial. It is•seen
that the voters under household sufferage
are likely to sway in vast masses from one
political party to another. The. oscillations
in the political pendulum since the 7assing
of the Reform Act of 1867 have been from
one side to the other with a weight as
startling as they have been remarkable.
There have been three general elections
from the time when that statute became law
in 1868, in 1874, and in 1880 ;and no matter
what the party complexion of the Govern-
ment has been, each time the verdict has
been pronounced against it. There are
various explanations of this result of pro-
nouncing the national will, as applicable to
one party as another. To begin with, a
large proportion of the electorate are men
of no decided political views, who having
seen a Government in power five or six
years, such as that of Mr. Gladstone in 1874
or Lord Beaconsfield in 1880, think it no-
thing but fair to give the other side a turn
and vote accordingly. In such a time, too,
other questions than those of the previous
general ele, tion•come to the front; a con-
siderable number of those who tLen voted
hav bet.o called to their rest ; and the lad
of 15 or 16 half-a-(1 zen years ago is now of
full age, and qualified to be placed upon the
register if he occupies a house and pays • the
' rates upon it. In vast constituencies, such
as those of the metropolitaiaboroughs and in
Lancashire and Yorkshire, causes like this
with the natural increase of population
derived from the attfaction of large numbers
from the rural districts to the great towns,
effect enormous changes in the composition
of the electoral roll. Whims, prejudices,
personal likes and dislikes, caprice, and desire
of change, are often amongst the,motives by
which an indefinitely large number of the
electors are sway ed.
There never were such extraordinary
fluctuations in the days of the old ten-pound
householder. Seats were then r.ot gained
and lost by the dozen in a few hours. There
were politicians who could say with a reason-
able approach to certainty what views the
ten-pounder would take of a particular ques-
tion, because they were politicians who had
actual acquaintance with all or nearly all the
various classes from which that electorate

was taken. In those days the talk of public
opinion as a determining agency in politict,
had a certain meaning, and tho thing
itself was discernible and was a guide.
Flit now those who speak of public
opinion are speaking only of the opinion of
the classes with which they are conversant—
the merest fraction of the whole. None
can say what opinions this huge electorate
holds with regard to foreign and domestic
policy, the attitude which we should main-
tain abroad, and the legislative ends -which
we should propose to ourselves at home.
None can say how this or that form of appeal
or argument will influence the votes on this
or that subject, or whether it will have any
influence at all. It is this element of un-
certainty as tothe real opinions of the masses
which renders the results of any general
election so problematical before these can be
actually known.

A vely crowded meeting took place in the
Corn Exchange, Stourbridge, on Wednesday even-
ing last, to hear the address of Sir Richard Tenipe.
Michael Gnzebrook Esq., of Hagley, taking the
chair in the absence of Major Walker. There
were also on the platform' M. Onslows M.P., C. P.
Noel, W. Tfow, A. Freer,L Freer, B. 'Wooldridge,
W. (J,srbett, S. Brooks, T. Hickman, W. P.-Try, T.

&c., &c.
Th, Chaii man said he was very glad to Ste so
laree an attendance that evening to receire Sir
Richard Temple.—(Hear, hear.) It was net his
intention t ) make a politicat sp, ech tolitem, as Sir
Richard Temple had come for that purpo,e, and would
address them on tlio,e polities which, he trusteA
I would C. him as member for the Eastern
Divison of the County of Worcestershire.—(Hear,
hear.) In every disttict, Sir R. Temple had been
enthusiastically received. They, as ele.tora, fel:,
proud that one who was born in their county,
liaving fuitilled one of the highest offices of .he
, State, was ready to come forward to represent them
in the House of Parliament—hear, hear)—and he
hoped they would do their best to return him.
(Hear, hear).
Sir Richard Temple, who was enthusiastically
received, said he was proud to stand before them,
because Stourbridge was the acknowledged principal
place in the manufacturing , portion of East Wor-
cestershire.—(Hear, hear) One reason why ha
wished to stand for that constituency was thri.,.
Worcestershire was not only an agricultural dis-
trict, but a large indus•rial inariutncturing district.
He &so came mainly to advance the interest of his
cauntr,y men in East Wore, sti-rshire. And not only
his agricultural conntryn en—to wisich class he
especta ly beion;ed—but also the interests of those
workingm n, who tie knew to be ern thc St ites
of he Empire, and he usszlit to understand, because
he had lived so long am,:ng those markets where
their products went. He was able to rememiler to
day when there was but little industry of in inu-
facture there, but now he found tYs county b cu-
ing wi.;ll interests of different airts of thi gs. On
of he Liberal friends in Birmingham had taken
him to task for bringing a local cover in' o bis
speeches. The el atars would think it wa- the
duty of iheit candidate to make himself equipped
with all the work they did and with the birth Ley
followed How was he to satisfy them that he was stV
to be their rcpre.,:entative, unle-s he showed them
had learued everything that concerned them. lie
was surpri•ed at the astonishing gi owth of halos
-
tries of the Stourbridge district, and he was equally
astonished at the pr 'en-8s it had made V the
o xi
cause of .Conservatism. He was o'd enough to
•g
remember when no Conservative candidate dare
show his face in the streets of Stourbri!ge,---he was
told the Conservative candidate got his car, iage
smashed—but he was
.rece.vcd wilt voi,iferous
applause. (Cheers). He was touch ot,liged to any
of his opponents who wet good enough to come
there to listen to what he had to say, and if a ter-

wards they wished .to put questioes to im li
woutt au-wer them, then ,they %valid Ewe whet
answers he was able to give. (Hear, ht-a ). 11,
was atraid Unit the boys at d grl ire the "strivi,
sewed to be much against him—(laughte,)-11( wr-
theless it appeared that the grown men were on his
sire of pontes. (Hear, hear). Not only were
nurnb-rs of working men inclined to give him an.
in epenuent support, bu, ma,-y ,f Vle ir,mmaste,s
and gri-at manufacturers were united wi h the (An-
servatite side. He was proud to think that h- wtzs
supported by such a ma . as Mr. Foster—'„ heer -)
and Mr. Turney—(cheor s), !hey were men of who,e
support any candidate might be p,oud. (Applaus.3)
He was addres-ing an industrial district, no d.,u,t a
number ot the great working classes and the
werking class whom he was anxious to addr
Ilere were prophets who would tell them that th
Liberals were more thtir friends rather than the
Conservatives. The electors .would say to thin
"It is all very well to promise us things in fu ure
and to profess an interest in us, but will yo t shov
what you have done," that was the main thin 2.
He could say that there was no party that had done
more for them than the Cons..rvatives. (Heir,
hear). He did not disparage ids opponents, nor say
that they had done nothing for them. It was a
olitcal mee,ing and they met ti consider matters
oi pol teal ).,usine-a, and not to i-dul,..re in va.ue
dechtrua! ion. lie then poin' ed out the various
we sures passed by the pre& [lt Conservative
attreinistration, and reo,dn•led tern of the "biset,r
ind Workmen'i. Act:' the obi et of which w
fi.;,tly, to prev( tt an tijus• coastrumion of the con-
spi soy laws to b:tnish the 11:!ion of wor sing men,
which the men [night jus:ly form for their int. rest, ;
-eeendty, to pre%eut masters having any olttrol
over the ink itutions of the men; thirdly, t pre-
vent bad or indifferent workmen from iutimi:ati-g
tie good workmen. Next he reminded thorn of the
"Artisan Dwelling Act.", He believed it had not
be, n much applied here, but it had been appli d in
Birmingham, and it Was a law that was formed for
the sake of the work ng mem Then he raurtioned
the •'Public Health jet." He then referred tit the

Act of Friendiy Si•eieties, which enabled the work-
iugman to lay up, in the days of sunshine and pros-
peaty, agsmst a rainy day. Then there was the
Unseaworthy Ships Act, which w•is destined to save
the lives of their fellow countrymen from a watery
grave. (Hear, hear): That was p issed at th
instenee of Ar. Piitnsol!, a Liberal, but was !nisei 1
by a Censervative Governinent,—(h.ear, hear) - and
it showed the impartiality of the 'Con•ervittiv•-s, in
respect to subg:stions from whatever side they
came. (Hear, heat). Then we had the Enidosule
of Commons Act, the ce ject of which was t • tecure
for I he:working men a pla ir for recreetion, (Her,
hear). Ti en we had rhe It. gulation and In•pection
of Canal Boats, which was a great boon to ad- tae
persons dwelling or working therein. Tries() are
4.. ts of domestic legislation, and be w-ald ask them
0 consider, whether or ~not, in view of what the
C'enservatives hial dune in the past, they have not
some claim fey their eimfidenee in the futere.
(Cries of "es") there acre hundreds of °the.
things still-required, and if they re rimed them io -
Parliament, they should, thereu4hly study the to
quirements of the workiag nun, and pro-
mote the interests of thar class. (Hear, hear,)
But domestic legisl .tion was not the oniy direction
in which Government could move for the intere•ts
of the Working man., He had come frolk the
markets where their products went. lle ould
assure them that the manufactures of East Woree:-.1-
tershire .found that their way throughout the
World, and it was for the sake of foreign trade that
our ;empire was maintained—the empire extend-
ing far beyond the territories. under the direct
control of England—not on. ly to millions 7 of square
miles and hundreds of millions of the human race,
but to many extensive, oceane, and shores, and
countries not under our .management(eheera).
There were vain prophets whOtold them that bad
trade arose from a Conservative Governmen—(A
Voice And the weather"). Such men could
nbt poe•ibly know the real causes. Besides th
protective tariffs anj :he competition of other
countries, there were causes far beyond the control
Of hittnati agency, such as the dreadful famines in
China and India. the bad seasons on the Continent
and the culminating sot tw—the lead seasons in
England—(obeers) All these things would happen
equally as much under a Liberal Government. Th •
Liberais might b in power; might Heaven grant
that they would have luckier tm. s than the Con-
servatives had—(cheers). But if they did not
might they have more FOnerous treatment from the
Conservatives than the Liberals were giving to
them—(heir, hear, and applause). He hoped tne
Conservatives would not come forward to taunt the
Liberals with every misfortune with- which Provi-
dence afflicted the world—(heer, hear). If they
doubted the importance of the empire let them
consider that the largest of all their industries was
that of iron, the greatest employment for which
was to be found in railways. How was the iron
trade to go on unless railways were opened up in
fresh countries' and peace, quiet, and order were
maintained by the ascendancy of some great civil-
ised Power, and that Power should be England—
(loud cheers). If the Conservatives vere returned
to Parliament in a strong minority he would pro •
mise that there should be secured a course of
English poiicy, running uniformly, which should
take care that all British ngagements, direct
indirect, all over the would ste uld be strictly and
rigorously observed. In Asia,. Turkey, Egypt,
Persiit, Mesopotamia, China, India, and South
Africa, there were projects of railways thousands
of miles in extent, which would not only require
rails but carriages, engines. bolts. bars, and all
minor artieles of iron—(cheers). The Conservatives
were accused of being too fond of going to war, and
of being apt to spend ton much money. What were
the wars which the Conservative Governmtnt had
undertaken ? The, Zulti war was undertak,n to
prevent an organised army, ef bloodthirsty savages
from having the Colonyeg Natal entirely at their
mercy (loud cheers). Natal was full of our white
countrymen and countrywomen, and our adminis-
trators were not to be hoodwinked by the assert•on
of the Zulu King that his army was simply ore ill..
ised for aggression upon neighbouring Afriean
tribes They were aware that, it was ten times
stronger than was necessary for such a purpose,
and thnt such an army could be wanted but to over-
come the colony of Natai—(cieers). And now,
