the support of all who held those principles.—(ll-ar,
hear.) He had never attempted to gull those singularly
confiding men, the tarmers, with promises of protection;
nor bad be ever denounced the greatest minister this
country had seen for two hundred years as the leader of
an " organized hypccriq." and then turned round and
adopted his principles. Had he done so, the electors
might well be exhorted to " beware of Osborne."—
(Cheers.) He would say—" Beware of Lord Derby," or
the Protestantism of 1852 would be lett in the same
position as the Protection of 1847 —(Cheers.) A new
dodge was about to be tried on the constituency. Farmers
were now told to exercise a temperate forbearance,
and to look only for a modification ot taxation.—(Hear,
hear.) They were much in the position of the man who
supposed be had been promised an elephant by a friend
in India, but which in reality was an evivaleut, and
turned out to be a Japan tea-tray.—(Laughter.)
They were promised an inquiry into the burdens on
land. What were they? It would never be dis-
covered in the House that they were any other
than Sir John Tyrrel, and Mr. Newdegate, and one
of their neighbours, who was hawking about the requisi-
tion against him—(Cheers and laughter.) As to the
malt tax, he considered that its abolition would be a
relief to the consumer. He would vote for its repeal if
any substitute could be found. He believed that the
alleged burdens on !Yuri were a mere sham and delusion,
got up by that accomplished juggler, the Chancellor of
the Exchequer, who was a quitabler and a political Pu-
seyite—(eneers.) Along with his Noble Colleague, he
was favourable to removing the duties from tea and to-
bacco as soon as the condition of the revenue would
allow. He had been charged with holding extreme
political principles. Ile was a man of smell but intle•
pendent fortune, and had everything to lose by violence.
He saw no danger in admitting the people co the suffrage,
convinced that if England ever tell, it would be by toe
vices of the upper, not of the lower classes.—(Ch.-ers.)
He was an advocate for our representative system being
made a reality, and not a sham; and he was no true
Conservative who refused to throw open the partaie of
the constitution and admit the people to power.
As to civil and religious liberty, he had ulways vAed
with Lord John Russell for the admission of the sto
Parliament.—(Hear, hear.) He asked no man hie re-
ligions principles; that was a matter between him and
his Maker.—(Cheers.) Though a meenber of the r;stab-
lishment, he had voted fur the abolition of church-rates,
believing that this paltry tax was an injury to the Church.
—(lleer, hear.) Bat it was said that he had voted for
the grant to l!LLeynooth. Tins was a misrepresentetien.
He had never done so. He had voted for Mr. Ward's
amendment that the additional money fur Maynooth
should be taken from the Church property of Ireland.
—(Cheers.) Lord D.-rbv Irmself was the very man
who, on the 3d of April, 1845, had proposed in the
House of Lords the additional 14,000l—(Hear, hear.)
Was not this of a piece with all the other trickery that
was g ring nu? LI Ireland the Derby ite candidates said
they would maintain the Maynoeth grant, just as in
those benighted counties where Mr. Christopher pre-
sided, they were still taught to believe in Protection.—
(Rear' hear.) Bat it was said that he was a member of
" the Pope's brass-band."—(Laughter.) He had cer-
tainly taken no part in the Ecclesiastical Titles 13111, ex •
cept on the third reading. believing that Lord Jelin
Russell had taken the wrong coarse. lie thought it a
resisted the
dwigracefal concession to a cry.—(Cheers.) It they

pery and ignorance convertible terms—it must ne done
