It is the boast of the Tories that Sir R. PEEL'S
I;overnment is stronger than any Government
ice the days of Mr. PITT. We are not dis-
posed to deny that assertion, and the stronger it
is the more conspicuous will be the success of the
principles which will certainly triumph ever it.
Sir R. PEEL has been placed in office by the
monopolists ; he is their creature, and he takes
power to uphold their monopolies. He cannot
succeed, and we hazard nothing in making the

lie and they aim at two incompatible things.
They want more wealth for themselves and for
t',te State, and more wealth for the people. At
the same time they will not allow of that free
strenuous exertion, by which alone the
tv,alth of the State or the people can be in-
cree.sed. Greater burdens than industry now
is•?ars it cannot sustain ; to feed the people,
s;ltisfy the monopolists, and keep up the revenue
of the State at one and the same time, is not
possible ; but as the people must be fed, and as
il,t.lustry cannot bear additional burdens, the
monopolists must give way.
Sir ROBERT PEEL is in fact already suspected
by them, because they are sensible of the neces-
sities of his condition. He is said to be, though
we give no credit to the statement, preparing to
rat from the principles he took office to support,
We know that he will, and must rat; but he will
not as long as he can help it; and nothing has
vet happened to influence his mean and coward
soul. Generosity and magnanimity arestrangers
to him. He will condescend to repeal the
Corn laws when he finds them ruining the em-
ph.c. He will give nothing, therefore, to justice
_:_nothing to the people, while they are
patient • under a merciless law ; but he
„ill grant all to fear, and all to his love of
place and power. He cannot yet be alarmed;
he is as yet quite secure in office,
but he has
avowed impossible principles, and the time will
come when ?hen Sir R. PEEL must again rat, or he
down the whole fabric of political
