LONDON,
FRIDAY, MARCIII 3. 1890.

A public dinner, very respectably and mime-
roissli .'tended, was given yesterday at the Crown
uud Anchor Tavern. to Mr. 11011110111 E, by his ,
friends in Westminster, for the purpose of con-
gratulating him on his release from prison, and of
expressiog their abhorrence of the gross injustice
and illegality pursued Ivy the late Rouse of Com-
mons in I 'ling this Gentleman for en act over
which that branch of the Legislature possesses no
legitimate or constitutional jurisdiction. Mr. Flom-
HOUSE, we 111;4Mit to state, evinced in his sp-
wrmier the ill effects of his unjust imprisonment,
hut the vigour of his mind wes in no respect im-
paired, and 'fever on any former occasion was he
more felicitous in addressiog • public assembly
than lie was yesterday evening in his comments
upon the circumstances connected with his pose-
cution. Considering the severity with which Mr.
Ilonnoust: has been treated by the late House *of
Commons, end the went of generosity which was
displayed ipyrortle him, even in • place where we
cannot presume that evil pessious could ever exer-
cise en influence, we might naturally expect that
Mr. floottuuse would take advantage of the first
opportunity presented to him iii public of express.
log keenly, and with souse degree of iicrinsony, his
hitter sense of his sufferings ; but in his able and
eloquent speech there was uo harshness of invec-
tive ; the es pri ssiun of his feelings wes tempered
by the exercise of sound judgment, and offered sin
alloy to the pleasure that must here beta felt by
those who experienced the charm of his manly and
graceful eloquence. With Mr. flooliouses politi-
cal opinions we pretend not at this moment to have
atiy concern ; his notioria of. the degree of reform
which the constitution of the Manse of Commons re-
quires far outstep. ith4 we,gossirrive to be necessary
or the security of therubtie Fad; but we still fur-
ther differ from him With referenne to the *treasurer
which' lie believes ought to be pursued upon this
,ul,ject. This diversity of .sesetionent does mot,.
liu*ever, present us from allowing to Mr. lion-
tinusc the merits lie really pn ea, from adini,_
the strength of his argumentative powers, cud
the classical elegance of his illustrations.

A monstrous rind 11110 q unnatural union has of
litre hero forme...if lirtoeen the Radicals and the
'ltuiss, which in its consequences c•autiot foil of
pr.:vire! extremely dangerous to the Constitution of
this country. These 'parties concur most cordially
in assailing the 11•Itige as a body, rind emulously
besputter with every foul-mouthed epithet those
men of England who stand lutist eminent in the
canotry, either by the lustre of hereditary rank, the
splendour of fortune, or the unsullied integrity of
private character. The ultimate object of the !ta-
ctic rls and of the Tories is, we are aware, distinct—
that of the Routed, it to destroy the Constitution
for the advancement of certain individuate to
supreme power—that of the Tories is to destroy the
Constitution for the establishment of arbitrary
authority in the persons of the heads of their party.
Neither of these parties can be successful s 3 long
as the great body of the people entertain genuine
Whig princ:plee, and repose their curditleuce
oi the great OWIS of the nation who are most
eidisrustrle fur rank, wealth, arid virtue. The
Radicals and Tories are well aware of this truth,
amid therefore they now join forces, for over-
throe ing the barrier ol,toot•rii to the ambition of
and arc eumsur, if they succeed to their coot-
innu object of ilegrvateog the Whigs in public esti.
matirm. to Iritve the resolt to chalice. In such
I,,,heshe the ItitlicaJ4 'law more wisdom than their
fru-rids the Tinier.; fur in the event of a coirdict,
single handed, between these fretionv, there can Ise
Ho doubt of the ultimate strives* of the blediculs.
and of the triumph of enormity.
