the Anti- Corn-law League. It is now several weeks since
Mr. Paulton visited Tamworth with a similar intention,
but was repulsed by the refusal of the Mayor (a Tory of
the name of Parsons) to permit the delivery of lectures on
such a subject in the Town-hall. A correspondence sub.

groundless objection to inquiry en this important question
as had propted him to a refusal of the eccerttroadation so-
licited. The Mayor, however, having refused to assigo any
reason for his illiberal conduct, and persisting in his un.
courteous decision, the Council of the League, recalled
Mr. Acland from the South of England on the triumphant
completion of his tour of discussional agitation in Devon-
shire and Cornwall, and instructed him to enlighten the
constituency of Sir Robert Peel upon a subject so unpalat-
able to his bigoted adherent the Mayor of Tamworth.
Accordingly the attention of the inhabitants of that borought
and the surrounding district, was called to the .:Ib.leo b
