believe
that some disclaimers were the consequence.
We then said ".We will give no opinion on
paragraph, till we are assured,
any part of the by
the silence of the Ministerial Journals, that it is
is true." Five days.have we waited; the para-
graph has been copied into a great number of
Journals, both metropolitan and provincial ; and
it has not been contradicted. We assume,
therefOre, that it is true—that there exists at
Tamworth a school in which gratuitous edtica-
tion is given to children, so long as a PEEL shall
represent the borough; and thelpresent Prime
Minister has . excluded from its benefits the
children of all those who signed the Tamworth
Address to the QUEEN. Let us look at both
these branches of the assertion. •
A school fur the gratuitoUS education of chil-
dren, as long as a PEEL sits for Tamworth, is one
of the most injurious but at the same time most
direct, pieces of bribery that' ever fell under our
notioe.
Si
seat to Sir ROBERT PEEL is indebted for his
this system of bribery. Looking forward
with Prudent calculation, the PEELS have insti-
tuted
a scheme to bribe the electors of Tam-
worth
in
_alt time
by the annual donation of
schooling, which is money's worth, to return a
PEEL for that borough. We should think that
on a petitiontliell
House of Commons ought to
unseat the
Premier for systematic bribery. If
that be tolerated, it
will be a scandal to the
Hto House of Conn
