M. niers. No one can forget the brilliant part which
M. de Lamartine took in the Regency Bill. M. d 4
Lamartine, who by his memorable speech on that oc.
casion separated openly from the Consevative party,
became all at once the object of advances from all the
opposition leaders, who were anxious to attach to
themselves b 0 powerful an auxilery. M. Gamer
Pages pretended that M. de Lamartine was decidedly
republican; M. 0. Barrot affirmed that be was
liberal and dynastic ; in fine, even M. Thiers desired
to join to the Left Centre the man whom be used to call
disdainfully a great poet.' M. niers asked.tor an inter-
view with M. de Lamartine, who granted it. It took place
under the trees in the garden of. the Paiais Bourbon. '!he
conversation, which was a long one, did not terminate Ca
M. Thiers would have wished. 'lt iii• impossible,' said he,
at last, when about to withdraw, that we should not
come to some understanding. One day or other we shall
meet again.' Xes,' replied M. de Lamariine, 'we shall
meet again, but only to oppose each other; for you/ M.
Thiers, are revolutionary and not liberal; and I am
liberal and not revolutionary: M. de Lamartine was
right; M. Thiers is revolutionary and not liberal."

SPI_ IT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.
TIMES.—The Derbyites are about to play over again
in the metropolitan county the game which they carried
4000 so successfully in the recent election for Liver-
pool. The seats of Lord Robert Grosvenor and Mr.
Bernal Osborne are suddenly menaced by Lord Villiers
and the Marquis of Blandford. One experiment on the
gullibility of the people has prospered so far beyond
anything that could possibly have been expected that
it is determined to leave nothing unadveniured and un-
tried. After his triumph on the banks of the Mersey,
what may not. Lord Derbyh9pe on the banks of the

utterly impossible, and, finding that accomplished, we
must estimate their . success in.the present elections very
highly, for their views are obvio 1 expanding as they
go on. They were contentllB Y

turned by the patrimonial sof Blandford to be

to them how much
may be done by ignorance and bigotry,
people are of professions of their abandonment hecredulous
policy to which we have the word of one of their
of a
colleagues that they mean to adhere, and how, l'i.titrleotwhne
highest Parliamentary services and reputation are valued
by the mass of voters compared with local piques and
personal sympathies and antipathies. Therefore, the
noble Viscount and Marquis, the rejected of Cirencester
and the accepted of Woodstock, are summoned forth in
hot haste to attack a constituency which, a few days ago,
no supporter of the Earl of Derby would have ventured to
solicit. Liverpool, which has probably gained more
than any town in the empire by the operation of free
trade, has recorded her vote on the side of monopoly,
and Middlesex is now invited to follow her example. To
be sure, the Protectionists put forward for Middlesex are
of the palest and most ineffectual order, and will pro-
bably be ready, in common with the rest of Lord Derby's
supporters, to profess an unwillingness to return to the
exploded system. But can the etcetera of Middlesex—
can any electors really zealous and earnest in the cause,
place any confidence in such declarations? if they are
seriously and heartily averse tp protection in any shape
why do they disturb the county in order to bring sup-
port to Lord Derby's Government? Protection is the
pen feather in the wing of the Ministerial eagle; draw
out that portion of its plumage and it falls to the ground.
Notwithstanding all the talk about loyalty and aristo-
cracy, Protestantism and the Bible, Romanism and the
Deluge, it is quite clear that unless Lord Derby devise a
substitute for Protection his party is a rope of sand,
and his Ministry a mere collection of atoms rolled to-
gether without choice, cohesion, or plan. The prin-
ciple on which they are founded is, as we have shown
before, the inherent suferiority of the agricultural class
to all others, and its consequent right to live somehow or
other at their expense. If they withdraw their preten-
sions to Protection it is because they intend, if the con-
stituencies will give them the power, to force upon us
something compared with which Protection itself would
be a boon. With a happy ambiguity they talk of the
distress of the agricultural interest, and promise a relief
to the land from the burdens under which it groans.
Now what do these terms, " agricultural interest "
and " burdens on land," really mean? The "agricul-
tural interest " does not mean the labourers employed in
agriculture, for they are admitted to be gainers by
the change. Neither does it mean the farmers,
for p_.9 fact is more certain than that a reduction of
rent lethii relief -*Moir can—be administered
to the farmer—a relief which we apprehend Lord
Derby, favourable as he is to them, will hardly
seek to enforce by legislative enactment. The agricul-
tural interest means, then, those who live from rent—
those who possess land to which an immense artificial
value has been attached by the progress of manufactures
and commerce, and whose fertility has in many cases
been developed at the expense of the temporary occu-
pant. Cast away all ambiguity and disguise, and it will
be found it is the rent-receiving class which! is su-
ing Parliament in fermi pauperis• In the same way no
metaphor can be more unfair than that which speaks of
the " burdens on land," and represents it as possible to
alleviate them by legislative enactment. Whatever taxes
are levied oath. occupant are retail so
aid many
deductions
from rent, so many sums which, if not p y the tenant
to the State in the shape of taxes, would b© paid by him
to the landlord in the shape of
rent. As, then
propose to substitute the term "proprietors of rent"we
E I interest," so
for the vague- words
" 8-ricu t
also we ought to speak of burdens on rent in-
stead of burdens on land. Justice
to the agricultural
burdens on land, will

thus, when translated into
clear
prhraseology, mean an attempt by the
richest
people in
arepted b
the country, owning property ead
many burdens, and tree from the ecimatiny law from g
effects of
the legacy duty, to release that property from contri-
buting to taxation, and to transfer that burden from
their own shoulders to those of all other classes. We
have gone into this discussion its order to show that if
Lord Derby no longer means to raise rents by the
im-
position of high Customs' duties, he is equally bent on
attaining the same object is a worse way, by remitting
the taxes which those rents DOW pay, and casting them
on the community at large. The Government have
widened the question. It is no longer, 4. Will
you
submit to protection?" but " Will you Consent to any
measure passed for the purpose of enhancing rents?"
We put this question to the electors of Middlesex.
Everyone disposed to answer it in the negative should
withhold his support from the Derbyite candidates, and
give it to those gentlemen who have represented the
county with so much credit and ability, and have de-
served so large a measure of public confidence and
esteem.
