LAW NOTICES.

COURT OF K
SITTINGS AFTER T
Before the Right Hon. Cu

duct,l affirm, gives me a fair claim to your confi•
dence on this head ; and I declare again, in all sin-
cereness,that the Bill itself has not a firmer friend in
his Majesty's Ministers than in me.—(Cheers.) And
if there should arise arty specious suggestions which,
in my own private judgment, 1 might consider as.
amendments, but in the opinion of the best friends
of the whole measure, nay, in that of his Majesty's
Ministers themselves, would, in any degree, impair
the efficiency and endanger the success of the Bill
itself, then I should feel it my duty to withdraw my
private opinion, and sacrifice them to the general
object. Therefore, unless you could suspect the
authors of the measure itself of deserting the great
cause which they have had to carry through diffi-
culty and doubt, but now have triumphantly in
their hands, you can have no reason to suspect me.
(Loud cheers.) 1 speak their own language. lam
sure I speak the sentiments of Lord John Russell
himself, if not the author, at least the great ex-
pounder of the measure. Sentiments which he
would not scruple to avow before any assembly of
his countrymen, an assembly such es this which I
see before me.—(Cheers.) If I am asked still more
definitely as to the various clauses of the Bill, I give
my hearty assent to what are called schedule A and
schedule B, and I am disposed to look favourably
at the proposal for a general and low rate of qualifi-
cation throughout the country.—(Great applause.)
With regard to the Corn Laws, I am taxed with not
being sufficiently 'definite in the pledges contained
in my address ; but who is there among you
who would like to be definitively pledged to
any particular modification of the existing sys-
tem, before it had been actually produced, and
thoroughly discussed ? Your late illustrious
representative, my lamented friend, himself the
greatest authority on these subjects, saw oc•
casion for doubt and variation upon this
point. Indeed, he had some share in' establishing
the very system as it now exists. I do, not there-
fore, say that it may not he amended ; but I may
surely be allowed to draw this consequence, that it
is no reproach if, at my age, and without more ex-
perience than I possess. I should be slow to pledge
myself to one specific modification of the Corn
Laws, as the best for the interest of the whole
community.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, all I can say
is, that no aristocratical bias—no partiality for arty
supposed landed interest shall for a moment influ-
ence me in the consideration of this question.—
(Cheers.) I say supposed, and I will tell you why.
I would look round at this great county, the county
of Lancaster, and compare the value of the landed
interest now with what it was fifty years ago. I
should discover, no doubt, a wonderful change in its
value. And to what circumstance above all others
should I trace this change ? To the numerous
commercial and manufacturing communities which
have risen up within its bosom.—(Cheers.) I have
only to look to my native county, Staffordshire, to
find the same causes that produce the same effects;
to find that the prosperity of the landed interest
depends entirely upon the prosperity of the
manufacturing and commercial interests; that they,
rise and fall together. Nothing but faction can pre-
tend to separate their natural and indissoluble con-
nection.—(Great applause.) Gentlemen, I believe
I have now said all I have to say in answer to the
doubts as to my sincerity, which has been placarded
on the walls. I shall be very happy, if any others
are now suggested, to give them a straight-forward
answer; if nor, I beg to thank you for the patience
With which you have listened to this declaration of
my sentiments. If they have not been clearly, they
have at least been honestly delivered. If you elect
me as your representative, I can confidently assure
You that you shall have no reason to charge me with
the desertion of one pledge or the breach of one en-
sagement.—(Cheers.)
In answer to a question from Mr. T. Baines, upon
the rate of franchise, his Lordship answered, " That
if his Majesty's Ministers, undoubtedly the most
Zealous supporters of their own Bid, and the best
Judges of what would or what would not affect its
efficiency, ultimately see no reason to prefer any
variation from the amount proposed, he, Lord
Sandon, would not be the man to raise his voice
against it."
Several persons then exclaimed, " That is all we
want," and his Lordship retired amidst enthusiastic
cheering.
After which the assembly separated.
