why we stood by the g meet Ia its peril, whim an
aresad us were pulling governments down, I answer that

aphis% *a seniketims of which chiefly, 1 believe, carried
us Isis through the year of revolution, and through the
year of eminter-nvolution, I would place two great re-
forms inseparably associated, one with the memory of an
illustrious man who is now beyond the reach of envy,
sod the other es closely awe steel with the name of
;mother illustrious man, who is still, and I hope will Wag
be, living to be a mark for detraction. I speak of the
great commercial refurin of 1846—the work of Sir R. Peel
—and of the Helmut Bill of 1032, brought in by Lurd John
Russell. (Cheering.) 1 have particularly called your at-
teethe' to these two great reforms, because it will, is
In) opinion, be the special duty of the House of Com-
mons—in which, by your distinguished favour, I shall
hare a seat—to defend the commercial reforms of Mr
Robert Peel, and to perfect and. extend the Perlis-
meet ry retorm of Lord John Russell. (Loud cheers.)
With respect, gentlemen, to commercial reform, though I
ray it will be our sacred duty to defend it, I do not appre-
hend that we shall find the task very difficult. Indeed, I
greatly doubt whether we have to apprehend a direct attack
upon it. (IL Cr, hear.) From the expression' used during
hat sessim, awl during the late election, by ministers and
their adherent', 1 should, I confess, find it utterly loom-
bible to draw any inference whatever. (Laughter and
cheers)) They have contradicted each other ; they have
contradicted themselves; and I would engage to produce,
selected from their speeches, amasses which should prove
t hem to be free traders, sod passages which
'Wield prove them to be protectionists. (Laughter.)
It is, therefore, gentlemen, utterly impossible for me to
pretend to throne, from the Impels/ held out and used by
the member* of government and their sdhereniv, what their
COII.IIIOI may boon the subject of protection. N helms,
I think that I can confidently say that the great reform
effected by Sir Hebert Peel is perfectly safe. (Cheers.) I
believe that the law which repealed the corn laws stands
now on • firmer foundation then when it was first paved.
Free-traders are stronger in reason and they we stronger
its numbers. They are stronger M meson, bemuse what
was only prophecy is now history, end because no one can
dispute the salutary effect which the repeal of the corn
laws has had on our trade sad our industry. (Cheers.) We
are infinitely stronger in numbers; furl am sure you will
all recollect when an exceediugly strong and formidable
opposition to the repeal of the corn laws proceeded from a
stem whisk was most deeply intenistid in their repeal—l
mean hem the labouring clan. Ido not sow remember
—I ought to remember perhaps—whether that opposition
prodeeed mach effect here, bat I do know that there were
any of the lamest towns in England where the free traders
dant art venture to call a meeting for the purpose of pa-
titionieg against the corn laws, for fear of being interrupted
by a crowd of working people, who came, taught by a cer-
tain clamed demagogues, to say that it was • question in
1 which working people had no coseern—that it was purely
a capitalist's question—that if the working man got • loaf
twice as large for hi, money, the capitalist would give him
only • ed. instead of a lc—that it was a matter positively
unimportant to the working-clamm, nay, that any chasm,
would be absolutely injurious to them. I never had*,
slightest faith in these doctrines. Experience seemed ton@
completely to etialute them. I compared this cur.=
other plasm, and I found that, though bread wee
