thems _Still we shall not-forget thet after all the
best defetice in war is,a judicious economy in peace,
because' when . war
.comes upon us the- resources of
the country will not fail the high spirit of the
people. (Cheers.) You remember that the Emperor
Napoleon I. called us a nation of shopkeepers—, but
he soon found to his cost that the profits of the *
shop are the exchequer of armies and the savings of -
peace the sinews of war. (Hear.) There is a ques-
tion which all men must desire to see settled, and
which has hitherto baffled all attempts at complete
legislation. I mole the great and important ques-
tion of church-rates. A bill for the extinction of
church-rates will probably be passed -thronvh the
Reuse of Commons this very day ; but there e, no
man so sanguine as to expect thet the noose of
Lords would be likely to aesent to a Measure for
1 the total abolition of church-rates, unless it were
accompanied by some mode of ma,iutainiug in re-
pair the fabrics of the national church: (Cheats,
mingled with expressions of dissent.) ' Now, , I
most earnestly hope that that august - assembly
will devise some conciliatory means of effecting
that object, and of thus terminating for ever
a dispute which believe me, cannot be more
annoying to Dissenters- than it is. painful to
the feelings of Churchmen. ( Ilear,* hear.)
There is only one other topic of domestic interest •
on which I shall detain you. I allude to
Parliamentary Reform. I would say a word or
two on that subject in connection wish myself. In
my early youth there were two political measures
to which .I was most warmly attached. One of
them was the emancipation of the newspaper press,
as the great agent of political* knowledge, from all
taxes and Eical imposts. The other eves Parlia-
mentary Reform. With respect to the first point,
when Mr Glad tone, the. then Chancellor of ,the
Exchequer, conceived the idea of the entire repeal
I of the newspaper stamp, which was carried out by
his successor, Sir G. C.. Levis, although I was
*opposed to the Government of that day I gave to
that measure my most cordial suppert. I said
then that I had such a strong confidence in the
good sense and the good feeling of the masses of the
people of this country, that I was persuaded that
that change would not tend to create but rather to
put down and . extinguish licentious and revolu-
tionary periodicals. I said it would prove a great
boon to the Cons rVatiVe4, because, then we could
have a cheap newspaper which could defend our
opinions among the mass s. Well, both of these
pi edietiens have been verifitd. We have the penny
presP, on the whole, c .nduc.t.ed with singular pro-
piety as well as talent, and the .Standard news-
paper, which advocates Conservative opinions,
has an enormous circulation, and now penetrates
large masses of the population which were never
approacbe I by a Conservative organ under the old
system. I now come to the question of Psrlia-
mentsry Referm When I accepted in 1852 the
r, qaisi-ion of the Conservative electors that I shou!d
stand for this county, I thought it fair and right,
in order to plevetlt all future misunderstanding.,
that I should address a latex, which I accord-
ingly did, to the Chairman of the Conservative
Aeisociation, in which I stated that, though during
the 10 or 11 years that I had been out of Parlia-
meet and alienated from arty political party, 1
hid modified certain views of mine as to certain
details of Parliamentary Reform, yet that,
with regard to the plain I,road question that the
Reform Bill ought to be improved and the frau-
clise extended my opinions were unchanged. I
ventured Cent also " to imply a belief" that it
werild b-3 resoived ft r a Givernment under Lord
Do by* to effect that settlement of the ques-
tion whidi ha• . never been accomplished by Whig
Governments. N(.w, it r,quires to he seen wh ther
that pri...dicion will also be verified. But, I take)
leave in the meanwhile to say, that the party with
which I act have nq more to fear from a fair and
just extension of the franchise than they have had
to fear from a fair and just circulation of p slitical
knowledge. (Rear.) Gentlemen, the all-important
and psramount consideration immediately before us
is the pscificie don of India, and the °lust' notion of
an administrative system under which capital and
eiviisation may become the quiet but remain agen-
cies for confirming our rule and allaying disaffec•
tion. I dare say there are some among you who
may remember the disturbed state of Ireland about
20 years ago—the agitat'on for the repeal of the
Uniert, 1113 secret societie<, the depreciation of pro-
perty, and the insecuri y of life. Well, there is now
li,, ..,,re tranquil or more itotriPhilt part. of her
Maj--sty's downeenes than Ireland. Bait how has
that change been eff cted ? Has it been by any i cry
rash me ms, and violent enactments f Net ; it has
resulted from ft st of all convincing the Irish people
that the idea of a repeal of the Union is a hopeless
delusion : and, next, from the adopion of some
very simple, very mill practical measures, which
have tondo( to relieve the prope.ty and the in I US..
try of tJie soil. Well, I bel eve it will be the same
with Indio. . We Inuit first convince the native]
than. a re' e li ,n is as hopeless and delmi ve for them
as the idea of r.-peal proved to the Irish ; and we
inu,t, then gradually and mildly introthre , our im-
provements and reforms, so iis not to shock tle it

ejtelices but to advance their Material intercet4.
(Cheers.) Amid all the varieties of race and reli-
gion human nature remains the same, whether iu
Europe or in Asia; and wherever you find a
.man
you find a creature who can be tamed,—tamed by
that justice which coinmands his reason and that
kindness which concliates his affection. If Mr.
Rarey, the horse-t,iner—(a laugh)—?an subjugate
the th_reest brute, fir.,,t by ascertaining the general
characteristics of the species, and then by seam
kindly secret which sYns its c nfi lent© and love,
surely the same arts which subdue the animal,
which has only instinct, will not fail with that no-
eler being whom the Creator has gifted with aeoul.
(Cheers.) Reverting, gentlemen, to the House ,of
Commons, there is one thing that I will say. Every
matt who joins our standard in that assembly shall
have the fai, est play for his industry and his talent,
no matte- what his birth or fortune. Why, our
beater in the House of Commons is a living i.lustra-
tion of a great popular principle. He is ana
wile has fought his way from the ranks of the party
to its head, who has obtsined a power and a pOsi-
tion higher than birthright and property give to
the son t.f Dukes. And how ? By his own re-
markable tal,nti, by his own indefatigable industry,
and, permit me, who have known him from our
earlier youth, to add by many gallant and generous
qualities which attach friends, and which, while I
claim them f r my friend, I really grant to every
eminent man of every party who aspires to lead the
gentlemen of England in the House of Commons.
(Cheers.) Gentleman, I thank you for the great
patience with which you have heard me. If any
gentleman is still very desirous of a contest I refer
him to those fair electors whr m I see around me.
(Laughter.) I am quite sure that any candidate for
their favour will be sure of a very severe rivalry.
He cannot hope that all opposition will be with-
drawn—(laughter)—and I am also sure that he
will spare no pains to secure himself from the grief
of a rejection. Gentlemen, I now take my leave
of you ; and when the time shall come for me to
retire from public life, and to enjoy, if Heaven so
please, between old age and the grave, some inter-
val of leisure and repose, I hope that many of those
who have so kindly received me thii 'day will be
enabled to say that upon the whole .the Hertford-
shire nacmt:er has been rio_ discredit to their choice.
