PEDESTRIANISM.
JOHNNY HANNAN AND DAN. DI/HORE'S SIX-fig
MATCH.—A merrier group than that which clustered in
front of Jem Burn's " retreat," the Greyhound, in Ful-
ham-fields, yesterday, it has not of late been our lot to
see. True, the matter was rather looked on as funny
and fanciful, than pedestrian and punishing; yet it was
known that Hannan had gone into severe training, and
that mine host of the King's Arms, strong in his tried
prowess, considered the matter " all over but the shout-
ing." The genial rain--a blessing to the parched cab-
bage-fields of Fulham, was by no means well-timed, in
the estimation of jolly Jem, except as it operated in
driving the multitude in doors, for belly-timber, fluid or
solid. At some two hours after the stipulated time of
starting, for " your great bodies move slow," Dan and
Johnny showed at the scratch in orthodox racing costume
1. e. divested of all ordinary apparel, and partially encased
with a Cl uernsey and short drawers, their pedal extremi-
ties, defended by spiked walking-shoes, and comforted
with ankle socks. The word given, off went the
pair ; for the first 100 yards Dan, who looked fat as his
Irish namesake, the Liberator, only on a smaller scale,
led the way ' • Johnny, who was comparatively thin and
genteel, although neither so tall nor so straight as a
poplar-tree, hereabouts challenged, the rivals tried a
spurt, and right gallantly did they go ahead, alternately
leading for the first mile, which was done in 9 min. 575 c.,
in a smartish rain. For a pair of old ones, whose fistic
prowess, in days of old, has gladdened the hearts and
memories of rwg-goers, their pedestrian perseyerance I

was most commendable ; two, three, and four miles were
covered at a rattling pace, and yet the tough ones stuck
together, within e, yard or two. At let tg;th it became
apparent that Hannan's condition was mit terior, for Dan,
who had " done all that becomes a man," , and " he that
does more is none," was told out. Johnny shot ahead,
and Dismore toiled after him in vain t.s the goal, at
which Johnny arrived first by 100 yard s, the distance
being covered in 59 min. 16 sec. The jollification at
the Greyhound we pass ; suffice it to may, both con-
queror and conquered were pleased with the close of
the day, if not with all its events.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.

C ORN-EX CH AN GE—FRIDAY.
The quantity of English Wheat received fresh up to
our market since Monday has been somewhat on the
increase, yet the show of samples here to-dtty was very
small. All kinds, owing to the pressure of foreign qua-
lities for sale, were a dull inquiry, and to effect a clear-
ance lower rates must have been submitted to. The im-
ports of foreign Wheat have amounted to 9,.20 quarters.
That article was a very slow inquiry, at, in some in-
stances, a decline in the quotations of is per quarter.
The fine rains had considerable influence upon the sale
for spring Corn in general. Barley met a dull inquiry at
Is per quarter less money, with a large quantity of fo-
reign on offer. Malt was a dull inquiry, but no decline
was submitted to in value. The best parcels of Oats
were quite as dear, but the out-of-condition qualities
declined 6d per quarter. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and
Flour as last advised.

the whole representative power of the
country in your hands. And now, when the question
of universal right, property, or class exclusiveness, is
being brought home to the mind of every individual
among you, there•ean be no longer any just doubt re-
garding the moral duty you owe to your unenfranchiacal
brethren.
The old aristocratic doctrine of holding your political
power " in trust for the millions," was exploded by the
Act for your own infranchisement, and is, happily, fast
dying away with the despotisms which created it.
Alt questions of exclusion on the grounds of safety,
Policy, or expediency, must, also, all yield to the greater
queition—political justice, unless a class despotism is to
be set up, condemned by all morality, and not to be de-
fended by religion.
• Be assured, fellow-countrymen, that the fears and ap-
prehensions you entertain of universal suffrage are
unfounded. As 'masters and employers I would appeal
to your individual experience for a verdict in favour of
my working brethren, as an intelligent, peaceful, and
well-disposed class ; far worthier to be entrusted with
representative power than the ministers, legislators, and
warriors, who, for years, have ruled and governed our
destinies, and whose momento of fitness is the present
depressed pauperised condition of England, with her
war debt of 800,000,0004
And to those among you who are not employers I
would say, trace our working population to the field,
the factory, and workshop, at their plodding toil, and
ingenious occupations; then follow them to their bumble
and often cheerless omes, and estimate the cares, the
thrift, the patient and enduring spirit that characterise
the great bulk of our industrious people, and you will
find among them a virtuous stamina for free institutions
not to be surpassed by any country in the world.
That ignorance, intemperance, and violence, are still
too prevalent I admit; but I believe that these wretched
fruits of neglect and misrule are more likely to be re-
deemed by quickening the aspirations of freedom within
them, than by branding them as the despised and ne-
glected pariahs of society.
—Think you that the working classes of England are
less prepared for the exercise of the franchise than the
same class in Switzerland and Norway? whose long
enjoyed national prosperity and happiness afford the beat
testimony of their fitness.
Do you beleve that the same Saxon race, transplanted
in the new world, have acquired greater knowledge and
rarer virtues to qualify them for the exercise of the suf-
frage than those of their brethren at home?
Do you imagine the population of Germany, Austria,
Prussia, and Italy, just freed from the reins of despotism,
imbued with a military and warlike spirit, and unaccus-
tomed to freedom of speech and action, are better quali-
for the suffrage than our own people?
Shall France afford you the most striking examples of
the heroic forbearance, popular honesty, and true con.
servatism of her impulsive population, rallying, support..
ing, and maintaining all that can be made to advance
public order, individual security, and national freedom,
and yet you continue to regard with suspicion the peace-
ful, thoughtful, patient, long-suffering, hard-working...-
people of England?

don your suspicions, and cast aside those notions of

15 of your largest and wealthiest cities, comprising
149,953 electors, are neutralised by the votes of 16
aristocratic little boroughs, having unitedly only 5,802

The idea entertained by many of you that household
suffrage is a more respectable and conservative suffrage
than universal, has been ably shown, by the Editor of

on that of household suffrage above
difference between the two numbers is doubtlessly made
up of mechanics, clerks, and professional men who at
present live in lodgings, or single men who live at home
with their friends, and who might be induced to contract
early marriages, if housekeeping were made the premium
for citizenship.
It is also to be apprehended that household suffrage in
some districts might lead to an extension of the cot and
hovel system, and might be made subservient to the
selfish interest of the landlord class.
I am aware that some among you, perceiving the great
injustice of confining the right to householders, have
proposed the expedient of extending it to lodgers also.
This seems to me to be an expedient to meet prejudice
as foolish as it is unjust, for though it might embrace an
equal number in the franchise, it would unjustly give the
right to the tenement and not to the man. it is a low ap-
peal to the mere money qualifications of the individual,
instead of his intellectual and moral fitness as a human
being. It would also carry with it the thousand legal
quibbles of house, tenement, land, rating and taxing,
which have rendered the Reform Bill a nullity, and
which have wasted a countless amount of time and money in the vain attempt to unravel their legal and technical • .
mysteries.
You may also be assured that the adoption of house-
hold suffrage would not settle this great question of
representative right. The excluded class would keep up
and prolong the agitation, and be more and more clam-
orous as the injustice towards them would be the more
apparent.

15 is, therefore, my friends, the interest of all classes
that this question should be settled promptly and effect-
ually; for no gagging law, however severe, no punish-
ment, however great, will silence, or ought to silence,
the public voice, so long as the monstrous doctrine is
maintained, in practice, that one class of society, and
that the most industrious and best deserving, have
nothing to do with the laws but to humbly and silently
obey them.
Let it not be urged, by the thoughtful and benevolent
among you, that the power and prejudice against which
you have to contend are insurmountable in enabling you
to carry the wider measure of reform which I am con-
tending for. There is no power to fear in the advocacy
of truth; and seek not, I implore you, to propitiate pre-
judice at the expense of justice—rather resolve to dispel
it at any self-sacrifice. Better be longer in achieving a
righteous object than to obtain a ready expedient by a
sacrifice of principle.
It is for you, then, the electors of the United King-
dom, to declare, by a generous relying act of justice,
whether the industrious millions of England shall cor-
dially and honestly co-operate with you in peacefully
removing the corruptions, the burthens, and restrictions
which cripple the industrial energies of our noble
country; or whether by your vain fears, prejudice, or
pride, you will delay justice, weaken their sympathies,
divide their energies, and consequently perpetuate the
misery and wretchedness of our people.
Hopeful that you will cheerfully and earnestly adopt
the wiser course, and that we may all peacefully and
cordially co-operate together in working out the po-
litical and social salvation of our country, is the earnest
wish of your fellow-countryman,

the chair, when the churchwardens, the overseers, the
board of guardians of the poor, and the improvement
committee, were successively paid the like compliment.
In acknowledgment of the health of the board of
guardians, it was stated that while the populous pariah
of St. Luke had incurred no censure, either from the
public press or the inhabitants, on the score of deficient
relief, yet two-thirds of the reduced rate imposed was
not yet expended. While on the part of the improve-
ment board, it was urged that Chelsea, once a neglected
spot, was now, on a fine day, aye, even in December, a
pleasant pronienade in most of its principal thorough-
tares. The dinner, wines, singing, and general arrange-
ments of mine host Smith, were like "corn, wine, and
oil, which make glad the heart of man."
THE DUCHESS OF ORLEANS.—EISENACH, MAT 26.
