These professed political economists are on certain
points the most bigoted of the human race. A writer of this class in
the Chronicle derided Lord Brougham, for saying that practically
there are no poor laws in Scotland, and then with a taunt re-
plied that his Lordship knows there are poor laws. He further
attempted to prove, that all the agricultural improvements in the
lowlands were owing to the poor laws, and he very properly alluded
to Mr. Dawson of Frogden. We admit the influence of the latter, but
deny that of the former. It is well known that the Poor Laws have
hardly passed the Forth, and certainly not the Tay, and that in the
counties of Perth and Forfar agriculture is in as great perfection as in
East Lothian or Berwickshire. But Lord Brougham need not repel the
attack. The writer in the Chronicle yesterday morning does it for him,
by stating that there are about 70,000 persons destitute in the Western
Isles and Highlands of Scotland, and then asserts that such a number of
destitute persons never at one time existed in England where Poor Laws
exist.
CONTROVERSIAL DISCUSSION BETWEEN THE
Rev. Messes. MAGUIRE AND Gaston —The columns of the Dublin Papers
arc heavily laden with the report of the polemical discussion now pro-
ceeding at the Rotunda. The Dublin Evening Post, speaking of the
controversy, says " It is most singular that, no(Withstanding the vast
libraries which have been written on the subject, the public appetite
seems to grow upon what it feeds on. Fur the last three days the Round-
room of the Rotunda has been crowded- to the brim—and the run upon
the papers containing the accounts of the controversy, have been, we
understand, extraordinary. As to the merits of the combatants—it
would not, perhaps, be fair to speak, flagrante beg,. We cannot help
thinking, however, that it was a very comical proposition of Mr. Gregg,
to maintain that the Law Church of Ireland was the Church of the
Apostles—but enough."
The proximity of the London and Birmingham
Railway to Leighton Buzzard causes a great influx of travellers from the
surrouiiding neighbourhood, a vast number getting up at this station at
all times of the day. Sixteen trains pass regularly every day; one
passed a few days ago with thirty-two carriages attached, each contain-
ing about twelve persons. On Friday last an engine, without carriages
attached, performed the distance from Euston-sbuare to Leighton, a dis-
tance of 40 miles, in 37i reinutes.—Bedford Uercury.
