IN the present state of political parties there are
few circumstance so disheartening u the ahmeass
of anything like independence of thought or the
determination to originate end maintain a policy
because it is founded on sound political peiniples.
Can any man in England tell what the pre-
sent Opposition represents? Who are the leaders?
Han they any deficit* objects? Are there any

social world with which the name of any Opposi-
tion leader is connected P Ave there any ideas which
they desire to en realised P Is then soy goal to.

eams no premises were ever made. The truth is
that his policy is purely maths, palely &straw

They feel that the political arena is sot a mere

Nitre /row has s esavietioa as the gamins deduct-

his downy. His spserkes show that he has
