DINNEFORD'S CONCENTRATED COR-
DIAL PEPPERMINT WATER.—The medicinal vir-
tues of the Herb Peppermint in relieving cramps, spasms, flatu-
lence, and other affections of the Stomach and Bowels, and also
langour, lowness of spirits, general debility, Sc., have been long
so well known as to render it one of our most valuable Do-
mestic Medicines. The advantages of this preparation are that
its high state of concentration, agreeable form, and general effi-
cacy, obviate those objections usually urged against all others in a
moi e simple state. Ladies suffering from the effects of crowded
assemblies will find it invaluable.
Prepared only by Dinneford, Chemist, 172, New Bond-street.
Sold by Sanger, 150, Oxford-street; Heudebourck, 326, High

UNDER the PATRONAGE of HIS MAJESTY, and AU-
THORIZED by the LORDS of the TREASURY.
cjIGHT RESTORED.-NERVOUS HEAD-
c, ACHE CURED.—This discovery has proved itself of the
greatest importance to the public. The numerous testimonials the
inventor has received during the last twenty years, from families and
editors of the first respectability, proving the truth of this infallible
restorative, all of whom may be applied to, who have been relieved
from cataract, gutta serene, opthalmia, and inflammations, all dis-
eases of the eyes and head having been completely eradicated, glasses
.eft off after twenty years' use, and the person rendered imperviou
to contagion by the frequent use of this delightful compound of the
most wholesome, choice, aromatic, and odoriferous herbs. It is re-
commended by occulists and medical practitioners for its many vir-
tues. The high patronage and character it has attained, is a testi-
monial beyond suspicion. To prevent imposition, ask for GRIM-
STONE'S EYE SNUFF, manufactured by the inventor, No. 39,
!=road-street, Bloomsbury, and No. 24, King-street, Long-acre,
London.

COPY OF A LETTER sent to Mr. Grimstone, 39, Broad-
street, Bloomsbury .—" Dear Sir,—You may make use of my name,
for a true fact, in -taking your Eye Snuff. I have received such
great benefit, that I can see to write without glasses, which I could
:sot do before I took your Eye Snuff, my eyes being so very weak;
I.:v are now perfectly strong! Many of my poor aged men and
'n would purchase it in preference to other snuff, but they
eannot afford sixpence per ounce, or buy it in the cannister. I re-
main, Sir, your's respectfully, H. PLUCKWELL, Governor of the
Poor.—Poor-house, Tottenham, Middlesex, January 24, 1834.
Sight restored."
OBSERVATIONS of the Editor of the " Old England,'
Sept. 22, 1833:—" EYE SNUFF.—This is really an extraordinary
preparation. Of what it is compounded we know not ; but this we
know, that it is wonderfully efficacious, relieving headache and
purging the eyes of injurious humours, especially if they are of a
scrofulous nature. It is also an extremely complaisant companion
when toiling over musty books or writings, and tends most power-
fully to enable the eye to perform, without fail, an unusual quantity
of labour." . .

OBSERVATIONS of the Editor of the United Service Gazette,
April 19, 1834.—" The advance of civilization, which gives birth
to so many new forms of infirmity and disease, brings in its train
new discoveries of remedial agents and new applications of science
to their 1 irtues. In no case has this remark been more signally
verified than in the modern prevalence of near• sightedness, and
the new appliances for its relief. Truly, we are a blinking gentra-
!ion ; every second man glares upon us in the streets through varied
,liades of blue, green, or amber, but none of these optical preser-
vatives profess to restore the impaired faculty to the vigour of health.
Let, however, the student and the literary devotee learn, with gra-
titude, that such a remedy exists. The instances in which Grim-
stone's Eye-snuff has renewed the power of vision by restoring
one to the over-strained organ are so numerous and well authen-
ticated, that the individual who neglects to make an experiment of
:ts efficacy may justly be said to ndulge a silly scepticism at his
wen expense."
OBSERVE the Inventor's Signature on each Cannister. Sold
n cannisters, Is. 3d., 9.5. 4d., 4s. 44., and Bs. each. Observe the
signature on each cannister, " With the patronage of his late Ma-
and authorised by the Lords of the Treasury." A liberal
,diowance to all venders of " Grimstone's Eye-snuff." All orders
mad payable in London. Letters post paid. Genuine old Snug
"cl Segars as imported.

M. DE LAMARTINE'S PILGRIMAGE TO THE
HOLY LAND.—" Our poet pilgrim informs us that it was not
originally his intention to have given this work to the public,
as it consists of the sketches which he jotted down at the in-
stant they occurred to him in the course of his perambula-
tions through scenes in every way so interesting and remark-
able. He says, that he wrote them sometimes during the
repose of noon under the shade of a palm tree, or the ruins of
a monument in the desert ; oftener at night by the light of a
resin torch, under our tent, beaten by the wind and the rain ;
one day in the cell of a Maronite Convent of Lebanon ; ano-
ther rocked in an Arab bark, amidst the cries of the sailors,
and the interruptions and disturbances of every kind which are
incident to a journey by sea and land.' This statement, in-
deed, will convey some idea of the character of the author's
adventures ;
but it is far from doing justice to the materials of
which the book is composed—to the many eloquent, descrip-
tive, and poetical passages, which are liberally strewed through-
out his pages. It is the muse of De Lamartine en deshabtlle,
but she is not the less attractive (perhaps more so) en that
account. The work contains the free and sparkling outpour-
ing of a high genius."—Edinburgh Evening Post.

ESTABLISHED CHURCH.

TO THE VERY REVEREND THE DEAN OF
NORWICH.

MY DEAR SIR—I am obliged by your kind attention in
making known to me your purpose of holding a meeting of
the clergy, within the precincts of your Cathedral, on the
subject of "the present crisis so momentous to the Church,"
and for " couching an Address to his Majesty, beseeching
him to take it under his especial care," and I am further
obliged by having a copy of that address forwarded to me by
your directions, and which I have carefully perused. As to
my own co-operation, which you have done me the honour to
solicit, as "of one holding so high a station in the Church," I
must beg leave, with every becoming submission, not only to
decline it, but to urge upon your consideration, in return, the
following reasons why I have thought fit to do so. In the first
place, I look upon those warm professions of loyalty and duty
with which your Address opens, when uselessly and super-
fluously made, as I think they are in the case before me, as
among the most cruel snares by which any monarch, and espe-
cially the constitutional monarch of these realms, can be at-
tempted to be beguiled. They are peculiarly, in my view,
ill-timed and mischievous, when coupled with that object at
which your address so directly aims, and in which you have in-
vited me to join. For if they are meant either to imply a
want of such virtues on the part of those who may decline
to unite with you, or any superiority of claim to them on
your own, such an implication is unfair, and as far as I
believe, groundless; but if they are meant to be the means
of urging on his Mafesty to measures still more decided than
those which he has already adopted, then I must not only
question the wisdom of such counsellors, but most devoutly
pray that their end may not be answered. For, Sir, let me
ask you whether his Majesty has not already done and risked
for you all that a King of Great Britain can safely, and more
than many good friends to monarchy think he should pru-
dently or constitutionally have done, under the existing feel-
ings and circumstances of the country over which he rules ?
Has he not dismissed a Ministry, without even letting them
even meet the Parliament, and called to power, in their place,
those very individuals whose measures you so much eulogize,
and whom you would gladly see again restored? Has he not
dissolved also, at their instance, the great council of the na-
tion, and what has been the result? The council that suc-
ceeded has been not less firm in determination than that which
went before it ; the Government thus constructed has, after
the shortest tenure ever known in English history, been driven
from the helm, and his Majesty left to the sole alternative of
calling back to power those whom he had, under the baneful
influence of such suggestions as your address conveys, so has-
tily and so recently banished from his presence ? Is not this
enough ? Would you have>your King humiliated still further ?
And are you not. aware that the next step, if your advice
should be adopted, will be a fearful collision of the Crown
and of the Commons—such a collision as .has lost, one monarch
his head upon a scaffold, and may go far to endanger the safety
of another.

But, Sir, let us now see what is really the object for which
all this grand struggle is to be made. It is true that you
express, and no doubt feel, the most grave and serious alarm
for the Church of England ; but the, real question is—not
whether you and many others may feel them—but how far
such alarms are reasonable and well-grounded ? I also feel
alarms, and of the most serious, but yet not of the same kind
as yours. It is very possible, my dear Sir, that you, and
those who are ready to act with you on this occasion, may be
more sensitively alive to a certain sort of danger, and, even
unconsciously, more prone to confound the temporalities of a
Church Establishment with its spiritual influence and useful-
ness, than I am ; because it is possible that the spirit of Re-
form, or innovation, as you would probably prefer it to be
called, which is now abroad, may leave my poor Archdeaconry
unmolested, whilst it did not scruple to disturb the " Anni
cum dignitate" of some of our richly endowed deaneries. But,
my dear Sir, I am under very little apprehension even for
your safety, and none whatever for my own, if the spirit of
agitation which is now abroad, and I care not under what
name, shall not hasten on the crisis here, as it has done in
Ireland. It is from the State that our Church Revenues, as
Protestants, were derived. It is under the sanction and by
the protection of the State that they are continued to us, and
the same authority has a full right to see that those endow-
ments answer the intent for which they were conferred. It
has an unquestioned right to regulate them as the change
of times and circumstances may require, for, if not, all the
title we derive from the Reformation is worth nothing beyond
what we derive from the Statute of Limitations. But I have
full confidence in its justice, and am ready to bow with sub-
mission to the wisdom of its decrees. It will not and cannot
oppose the will and voice of those for whom it legislates, and
that will and that voice will be with us so long as we are
careful to deserve it.

The Church of Ireland is an entirely different and isolated
question. It is so widely separated from the Church of Eng-
land, both in character and usefulness, that it is idle to repre-
sent them, except for the purposes of party, as linked together,
or to make the safety of the one dependent on maintaining the
corruptions and abuses of the other. The Established Church
of England is a mode of Christian faith and discipline, not
only acceptable, but dear to the affections of the great majority
of her people. No Churches are hero seen without a respon-
sible minister, no minister without a flock to feed. We may
have sinecures and pluralities which call for remedy—we may
have accumulations of wealth which might be usefully distri-
buted in less unequal proportions, but we have none of such a
nature as those to which the measure that so much alarms you
can be needfully applied. The Established Church of Ireland
is an anomaly to which the whole Christian world supplies no
parallel ; unions of eight or ten, or even more parishes, con-
solidated to make up one rich living—that living without
either church or manse, or Protestant congregation, its in-
cumbent enjoying, through a tithe agent, its large emolu-
ments, and those emoluments wrung from a population who
never behold the face of their minister, or hear from his lips
one word of exhortation. In every other part of his domi-
nions his Majesty accepts and acknowledges as the estab-
lished faith that form of worship which is most agreeable
to the consciences of the great majority of his subjects.
He accepts and acknowledges Presbyterianism in Scot-
land, and Catholicism in Canada, and exercises the greatest
caution in any interference with even the debasing and cruel
superstition of the Mahometan or Hindoo in India. But in
Ireland we are not content to force upon her an establishment
which is the hereditary aversion of six sevenths of her inha-
bitants, but we persevere in presenting this establishment to
their view, under the most forbidding and repulsive form. If
conversion be our object, can any means more unlikely be
adopted—can any project be marked by a more signal failure ?
Has not the present system been preserved long enough to
answer every purpose of experiment ? It has gone on for
about three hundred years, and that wretched country, so far
from becoming more Protestant, or more reconciled to their yoke
of spiritual bondage, has gone on in one unvaried course of
discontent, rebellion, and bloodshed, a burden instead of bene-
fit to Great Britain, and that gospel which should have been
the harbinger of peace, has been used as the source and watch
word of the most savage barbarities and the most relentless
discord. If this experiment of controuling the conscience by
brute force, or overawing it by a splendid and gorgeous hierar-
chy, althoughin support of truth, could be justified by any tes-
timony of its utility, it might then be some reason why we should
not abandon it as hopeless. But the very contrary, not to repeat
what I have urged already, is the notorious and admitted fact,
and why then invite me to co-operate in urging on this course
still further? But you will perhaps say that you quarrel only
with the principle, first making the emoluments of the Church
dependent upon the performance of and commensurate with
the duties for which you will not deny them to have been ori-
ginally designed as the befitting recompense. And to this
part of the principle I do not wonder that the Deans and
Chapters of Cathedrals should be peculiarly hostile. Most of
the spiritual duties that once belonged to them, exist only in
our monastic records, and the wise plan of Cranmer, as a sub-
stitute for those duties, never was fulfilled. But their tempo-
ralities have come down unimpaired, and may it not be ques-
tioned whether, as these now constitute the largest portion of
their official care, they may not sometimes influence their opi-
nions on any question of Ecclesiastical Reforms—whether
even the rumbling of the clouds at a distance may not some-
times be mistaken for a storm destined to burst upon their
heads ? But that the labouring Clergy, the best pillars of the
Establishment, should unite in their apprehensions is not so
obviously reasonable. No blow is aimed at them. Every pro-
posed step of alteration is in their favour. But what can be a
shorter or more simple mode of dealing with an idle and non-
resident clergyman than to tell him plainly "you must faithfully
labour in your vineyard or the grapes will not be yours." Is not
this the mode in which you deal with every department in so-
ciety, and is it not found to be the best and most effective sti-
mulus to exertion ? You very properly tell the poor man that if
he refuses to labour, neither shall he eat. But as things now
stand in many parts of Ireland, is there not a direct interest in
keeping these sinecures above-mentioned as they are ?
Is there not a direct premium upon the non-per-
formance of duty ? Can any system be devised more likely
not only to obstruct the propagation of the Protestant faith,
but even to destroy it where it is now existing, than to enable
a clergyman, by getting rid of his flock, if he has one, or by
taking care not to assemble one, if he has it not, to allow him
to enjoy his benefice as a sinecure, free from every care and
responsibility, and without even setting his foot in the country
in which it lies ? It reminds me of the anecdote of being once
invited, when at Oxford, to accompany a clergyman to the
evening prayers at Carfar, when, upon entering the reading-
desk, he found only himself, the clerk, and his friend assem-
bled, upon which he very significantly nodded to me, to make
the best of my way out, as there would then be no congrega-
tion. He took care to follow me with all haste, and upon
meeting a poor woman in the church-yard, he said, " My good
neighbour, you may go home ; you are too late for this time."
It suited his indolence and convenience to make it so, and it
equally suits the indolence and convenience of many an Irish
incumbent to have no church or congregation. But, Sir, let
us now proceed to that other portion of the abstract principle,
which forms so prominent a feature in your address, and which
I find at the late Conservative dinner in Saint Andrew's
Hall, described by one individual as "disgusting"—by ano-
ther as "irreligious," and by a third as " impious." I

mean the application of the surplus revenues of the
Irish Church, after satisfying every claim of Protestant
service, to the purposes of general education, and therefore,
" per saltum," to' purposes not strictly and exclusively Pro-
testant. Now, my dear Sir, may not all this be at once met,
first by saying that this principle, which it is now convenient to
set up as a shibboleth of party, has been recognized and acted
on without alarm or murmur for many years, and even by those
who now make it the subject of agitation. Parliament has
for a long series of years, and under Tory Governments, voted
Protestant money for Catholic and for Presbyterian purposes,
for Ireland and for Scotland, without that religious outcry
which is now attempted to be raised. It is well known that
Mr. Pitt's plan for Catholic Emancipation embraced a main-
tenance for the Catholic Priesthood, and I have good reason
for believing thai the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert
Peel would not have objected to this arrangement being part
of their plan also, when they passed their Bill, if the jealousy
of the Irish Priesthood had not at once rejected it. And they
were right in their purpose. But, secondly, by reminding you
that there is in it nothing which upon more mature consi-
deration you will not find to be truly Protestant both in cha-
racter and in purpose—you will not tell me that to instruct
the ignorant, and reclaim the wanderer, to turn men from
darkness unto light, and from the power of Satan unto
God, is not purely and directly a principle of Protestant
duty ? You will not tell me that it is Protestant to pre-
tend to pity the darkness of a poor erring brother, and yet
oppose ourselves to any measure which would hold up a
light to guide him ; to mourn over his spiritual bondage
and then debar him from access to that liberty in which we
walk ourselves. And lastly, you will not tell me it is Protest-
ant, before you deal out your charity to a poor beggar, to exa-
mine him in the 39 articles of religion, and yet, if I presume
to relieve him without this, may I not be possibly found guilty
at your tribunal, of having applied the revenues of the Church,
as the source of my emolument, to purposes not exclusively
Protestant. I well remember the outcry raised against the
Lancasterian schools when first introduced amongst us. The
downfall of the Church was then as loudly prophesied as it is
now. The notion of sinking religious differences in one broad
and comprehensive scheme of education, was by some
said to be the sure road to infidelity, by others to sectarianism,
and by a large body, both of laity and clergy, but especially
the latter, to be totally destructive of the Protestant faith as
taught in the Church,of England. But none of these terrible
denunciations have been verified. Thousands of poor children
have found in these seminaries a rapid and a safe increase of
knowledge, and then returned to their parents, and to that re-
ligious path in which they would in all human probability have
walked, if trained under teachers of their own respec-
tive communions. But, Sir, let me further ask, is this
boon, harmless as to evil, and probably subservient to
good, more than we ought, as Protestants, to extend
to the posterity of those from whose ancestors these
very revenues in question were wrested, and to whom they had
for so many centuries previously belonged ? Is it not enough
for us to enjoy that great mass of temporalities which will yet
remain, and all that can be usefully employed, without grudg-
ing that little and scanty dole which is here proposed to be
dealt out to them. Shall we "eat the fat and drink the
sweet," but forget the other portion of the prophet's counsel,
to " send our portions to them for whom nothing is prepared ?"
Shall we proudly and contentedly sit down beneath our own
vine and our own fig-tree, and revel in the luxuries of prospe-
rity, and forbid these Papal dogs even to taste the crumbs
that fill from their master's table ? No, Sir, whatever may
become of the principle you oppose, the principle you set up
against it is both monstrous and impracticable. It savours
neither of a truly Protestant nor of a Christian spirit, and
would, if carried out to its full extent, reduce society to a
chaos and make every man his neighbour's enemy. The bul-
wark of our- Sion cannot be defended thus. The faith of our
primitive founders was not moulded in such a cast. If our
Church do fall, it will fall not from a spirit of kindly con-
cession in things just and reasonable " towards them that are
without," but from that spirit which will listen to no sugges-
tions of charity, and admit no reparations to be needful for
their edifice, till they find it tumbling about their ears.
I am yours truly,
GEORGE GLOVER.

SOUTH STAFFORD ELECTION.

NOMINATION, MAY 23.

The Brox SHERIFF (Edward Monckton, Esq.), together
with the candidates and their friends, first assembled in the
Guildhall, where the writ was read and other formalities gone
through. This done, an adjournment took place to the hust-
ings, where the parties arrived about half-past ten. There
were now about 10,000 persons on the ground. As each can-
didate made his appearance on the hustings he was loudly
cheered. Colonel Anson and his friends were stationed in
the booth on the right of the High Sheriff, and Sir F. Good-
ricke and his friends on the left.
J. H. FOLEY, Esq_., proposed the Honourable Colonel Geo.
Anson, of Shugborough, as a fit and proper person to repre-
sent them in Parliament.--( Great applause.)
THOMAS LISTER, Esq., seconded the nomination.
EDMUND PEEL, Esq., nominated Sir H. Goodricke.
T. W. GIFFARD, Esq., of Chillington, seconded the no-
mination.

Colonel ANSON now presented himself, and was received
with tremendous applause. He stood before them as one whe
had always been a consistent supporter of popular rights, and
most anxious to support the best interests of his country.—
(Cheers.) The name of his family was well known to them;
and he believed it was as well known that the members of that
family had always shown a disposition to promote liberal
measures generally, and the prosperity of that county in par-
ticular.—( Cheers.) The county was ransacked to find some
one to stand forward against him, until at length all uncer-
tainty was ended by the borough of Stafford consenting to
make the great sacrifice of the champion of its interests at
the overpowering representations of a Conservative club.—
(Laughter and cheers.) Having named the Conservative club
of this county, be would allude to one or two matters which
he met with in the course of his canvas. He had a right to
suppose the constituency of the county liberal, for since the
passing of the Reform Bill they had uniformly returned four
Liberal Members, and for some time previous to that Bill
passing, two Liberal Members were chosen.—( Hear, hear.)
This was sufficient to warrant him in coming forward. Had
the county been decidedly of Tory principles, he would have
been the last man to have come forward to disturb its peace.—
(Cheers.) They had at the late election unanimously re-
turned four Members of Liberal principles, and he could not
suppose that in six months they had completely changed.—
( Hear, hear.) But he was going to show that, from the
existence of the Conservative clubs, the county was not taken
by surprise, as contended by their opponents ; for he could
bring instances where votes had been canvassed so long ago as
six weeks.—( Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") And by whom
were they canvassed ? By the Conservative unions of the
county 1 For whom had they canvassed ? That they knew
not, and they absolutely beguiled many persons to barter away
their right of giving their votes for individuals, by lodging
them in the keeping of a Tory club.—(Hear, hear.) And
who were the gentlemen who had thus combined together to
wrest from them the right of returning their own representa-
tive ? They were the very men who were the denouncers of
the Political Unions.—( Loud cries of " Hear, bear.") If
blame was to be attributed to either party, he thought the
conduct of the aristocracy and the gentry in the county was
most to be blamed, who joined together for the purpose of
wresting from the electors their dearest and most valuable
rights and privileges.—( Loud cheers.) They certainly ought
to be above such means, and should rely upon their character
and standing with their neighbours for any influence which
they might wish to possess.—( Applause.) When, therefore,
he was charged with taking the county by surprise, he threw
back the charge, and declared that in his canvas he met with
many instances in which votes were engaged weeks ago.
He was not a Reformer of yesterday only. He found himself
voting in minorities on the great question of Parliamentary
Reform long, very long, before the people were aroused to de-
mand a redress of their grievances in this respect, and to
call as with one voice for that great measure of reform
which was conceded by the Administration of Earl Grey,
and which was the means of upsetting the Government of
Wellington and Peel, who had declared against all reform.
—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) He looked forward with much
interest and anxiety for the fruits of that great measure.
He had always been an advocate for civil and religious li-
berty. He had voted for the Repeal of the Test and
Corporation Acts; and year after year had he voted for the
emancipation of the Catholics.—(Cheers.) And here, had
he time, he could state to them numerous instances of the
effects of that cry of " No Popery," coupled as it usually
was with the other cry of " The Church in danger," which
had been alluded to.—(Laughter.) He might refer them
to 1806, when these cries were raised, and had an effect
which those who raised them vainly flattered themselves
they could have produced now—namely, the turning out
of a liberal Ministry.—(Hear, hear.) In ten years after
this, however, the very Tories who had got up these
cries admitted Roman Catholics into the army and navy.
—(Hear, hear.) In 1826 they well remembered, these
watch-words of the Tories were again revived at the gene-
ral elections, but failed; and in 1829 Sir Robert Peel and the
Duke of Wellington actually came before Parliament with
measures of relief for his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects.
—( Hear, hear.) Did he accuse them for this ? No, he
thanked them for it, and gave them his support in carrying it
through.—( Cheers) But, he asked, where was the consis-
tency of the men who raised these cries year after year for
election purposes, and who then turned round and acted in
the manner he had stated.—( Hear, hear.) He was not one
of those who would deny to his opponents full credit for any
measures of liberality which they might propose ; but he did
blame that policy which, year after year, would refuse mea-
sures of conciliation and justice which at last it was compelled
to yield to force.—(Cheers.) He now came to say a few
words on the subject of the Irish Church. His wish was not
to destroy it, but to remove its abuses--( Voice from the left,
"To rob it")—for abuses he believed were a source of weak-
ness not of strength. There were many parishes where there
were no Protestants at all, or next to none, and the clergy-
% men perhaps were receiving from 8001. to 1,5001. a year. Of

Qs the a • o a poor curate 100 a year, and with the -
n to live in some fore n country, and thus was

rel • r k4W.' 'IMF., shame !") His object
was to put an end to these abuses ; and, by paying the work-
ing clergy better, make the Church more efficient. The
surplus, whatever it might be, he would appropriate to th
purposes of general education of the people.--( Cheers.)
He felt confident that the only way to stay the march of Popery,
and increase the Protestant religion, was to instruct the igno-
rant, reform the morals of the depraved, and generally to in-
form the minds of the people, and thus we should render them
capable of judging between true and false religion, and of ap-
preciating the great truths by which they were distingu;shed.
--(lmmense cheering.) The question had been asked him,
whether he would devote the surplus_ revenues of the Irish
Protestant Church to the Catholics ? His reply was, he would
not do so, but would apply it to the general education of the
people, without any reference to their religious belief?—
(Cheers.) And here he would :;sk gentlemen opposite, was
it to the system of education they objected? It certainly could
not be so ; for the plan of education proposed by Lord Stanley,
and which was what was wanted, had been sanctioned by Sir
Robert Peel himself.

Mr. EDMUND PEEL—But he does not plunder the Church
for it.

Colonel ANSON-But he would ask Mr. Edmund Peel,
then—Did not Sir Robert Peel approve of Lord Stanley's
plan of Irish education in 1832 ?
Mr. PEEL—I allow he did, but that was not proposed to be
effected by an appropriation of the revenues of the Church.
Colonel ANSON said all he had contended for was that
Sir Robert Peel had approved of the system of education pro-
posed, and that was allowed. But they say, "what we object
to is the appropriation of any part of the revenues of the Church
for other than ecclesiastical purposes," and here they took
their stand.—( a voice, " and there you'll beat them," great
laughter.) Now, upon this point he would refer to a very
high authority, which was Dr. Van Mildert, Bishop of Dur-
ham. He asked if that Prelate did not two years ago himself
propose and support an Act of Parliament which was passed
and now formed the Charter of the Durham University, the
express object of which was to appropriate a portion of the
revenues belonging to that diocese for the purpose of Uni-
versity education ?—( Loud cries of " Hear, hear.")
Mr. E. PEEL-That was voluntary.
Colonel ANSON—Mr. Peel says that was voluntary ; and
that was precisely the reason why he (Colonel Anson) ap-
proved of it.--( Loud laughter and cheers.) It was for that
reason he held up the worthy Prelate as an example to his
brethren. ( Great applause.) He asked what was the
ground upon which they now proposed to take their
stand ? He had shown that Sir Robert Peel had sane-

tioned the system of education proposed, and he had like-
wise shown that one of the highest dignitaries of the
Church in England had not only sanctioned, but pro-
posed and procured the appropriation of a portion of the
revenues belonging to his diocese for the purposes of edu-
cation ; and if this was good for England, why should it
not be so for Ireland ?—( Vehement applause.) This was
surely a sufficient justification for him (Colonel Anson), and
the party with whom he acted, for the line of policy which
they proposed to pursue.—( Hear, hear.) He was favourable
to a commutation of tithes in England, but not on the plan of
Sir Robert Peel, allowing of a voluntary commutation, for
this would be totally inoperative for good, and would not re-
move those unhappy differences which in many places existed
between the clergyman and his parishioners.—( Hear, hear.)
Ile was for making the commutation of tithes compulsory
within a certain period.—( Cheers.) He would now proceed
to say a few words on Corporation Reform, in which he could
assure them he felt deeply interested. In the famous Mani-
festo which Sir Robert Peel put out, on his acceptance of
office, he told them certainly that this subject should have his
attention upon the presentation of the Report of the Commis-
sioners ; but so cautiously did the Right Hon. Baronet abstain
from giving any pledge to touch the root of this great evll,
that had he (Colonel Anson) been in Parliament, he could
not have given him his support.—( Cheers.) Here, then, was
the wide difference between himself (Colonel Anson) and his
Hon. Opponent—that he (Colonel Anson) should have voted
against Sir R. Peel on nearly, if not quite, all those questions
upon which Sir Francis Goodricke had supported him.—
(Loud cheers.) He had now accepted an office under Lord
Melbourne, because he believed he could be more useful to his
country by holding that office than not, but he assured them it
was not his intention, nor should the office so accepted be a
sinecure.—(Cheers.) The Colonel then retired, amid loud
and long-continued applause.
Sir F. H. GOODRICKE was received with loud cheers by
his friends, and tremendous shouts of disapprobation from
his opponents. When he saw the men now in office, together
with their supporters—forming altogether a patched and pie-
bald assembly—offering the most factious yet zealous and de-
termined opposition to the late Ministry, who he believed were
prepared to reform every abuse—he thought it his duty to give
them all the opposition he was able. He trusted the coun-
try would soon again have the services of those highly talented
individuals who were lately in power, and he believed they
would, for it appeared to him impossible to go on long with
the present men, who seemed resolved on the spoiliation
of one of their most valuable institutions.--( Hear. bear,
and groans.) He assured them he wished to see the re-
form of all proved abuses—(Loud shouts of derision)
and the strictest economy enforced in every department
of the State. He had no other object in view than the
good of the country, the perfection of the Constitution, ard
the happiness of the people. No man felt more deeply than
himself for the present depressed state of agriculture. To
every proposition for its relief he pledged himself to pay
strict and earnest attention, and to give to it his most cordial
support. He hoped, too, to be enabled to show to the ma-
nufacturing classes, and particularly those engaged in the iron
and coal trades, that he had their interests fully at heart.
The Hon. Baronet concluded a very brief speech amid much
confusion.

The SHERIFF then put the candidates to a show of hands,
when there appeared a majority of at least five-sixths in favour
of Colonel Anson, which was announced by the Sheriff amid
the most tremendous cheering. A poll was demanded for Sir
F. Goodricke.
Colonel ANSON returned thanks—after which thanks were
given to the High Sheriff, and the parties left the ground.
The polling takes place on Tuesday and Wednesday.
