TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF
BRADFORD.
GENTLEMEN, At the last election the har-
monious call to your representatives was dependent on
the voluntary withdrawal of Mr. Salt.
If it is in my power to contribute anything of the same
kind now, turn and turn about is fair.
To those who see in the Dissolution nothing but the struggle
of rival parties for being the authors of a Bill which shall
postpone for twenty years the great public want, which is the
Ballot, it must be agreeable to find a Leviathan employer of
the Working Classes coming forward to advocate their just
claims.
Meanwhile your old representative is as able and willing as
ever, to Serve in any other quarter where he may be wanted.
The question is only one of time. An eminent statesman,
almost in the words of Marlborough, has pronounced "They
must go off--They must go off 1"
Yours very truly,
T. PERRONET THOMPSON.

MI?. BRIGHT AT MANCHESTER

A large and influential meeting of the Lancashire
Reformers' Union was held yesterday afternoon
in the assembly room of the Free Trade Hall. The
meeting having been addressed by Mr. George
Wilson (who presided), Sir Elijah Armitage, Mr.
Henry Ashworth, Mr. Thomas Porter, Mr. Thos.
Barnes, and Mr. Parkhurst,

Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON read an address from
the Lancashire Reformers' Union to the constitu-
encies of the United Kingdom, urging the general
adoption of Mr. Bright's Reform Bill.
The address was unanimously agreed to, and also
a resolution thanking Mr Bright for having laid
his proposals before the country, at the same time
pledging the meeting to every practicable assist-
ance in carrying them into law.

Mr. BRIGHT, who was received with protracted
cheering, addressed the meeting for the space of
three-quarters of an hour. In the course of his
speech the hon. gentleman said,—We are assembled
at a time of intense interest in :public affairs, and
what is done at this and similar meetings, and by our
countrymen generally within the next few weeks,
may have the greatest possible effect upon the career
and condition of this country for years, and it may
be even for generations to come. (Hear, hear.) I
wish one could, by some accurate gauge, ascertain
what it is that the people understand by the ques-
tion of Parliamentary Reform, and how much they
think they ought to have, and are anxious to ob-
tain. (Cheers.) I suspect the result would very
much disappoint some persons who are satisfying
themselves with the notion that this question can
be put an end to either by no concession at ali or
by some concession so small that it is not worth

offering and not Nyorth accepting. (Hear, hear.) I
have proceeded in the discussion of this question in
the belief that there is throughout the whole of the

middle and working classes of the country a posi-
tive and unchangeable conviction that the Parlia-
ment, as it now exists, is not careful of the people's

money—(cheers)--and that it does not, either with
regard to legislation for home affairs or in matters
of foreign policy, on many occasions adequately or
truly represent the public mind. (Hear.) We have
lately had an opportunity of seeing a good deal of
what may be called the inner life of Parliament
with regard to this question. We have had from
one party in Parliament, which boasts that it is the
largest party (the party opposite being disunited),
an actual Cabinet proposition. I will not stay even
for a moment to describe it. (Laughter.) Its cha-
racter was so bad and its features so ugly, that not
its enemies only, but those who should have been
its best friends, were anxious that it should be put
under ground as speedily as possible—(renewed
laughter)—but we know from that bill what its
-authors mean when they talk of having no objec-
tion to Parliamentary Reform. I have heard Mr.
Disraeli, when he was leader of the Opposition,
during the last few years, on several occasions say,
" You have no monopoly of attachment to reform ;
we have no objection to reform ; we are in favour
of a removal and a correction of the anomalies of the
Reform Act ;" but it is now manifest that " the
anomalies of the Reform Act" were the features of
that measure which gave to the people some portion
of political power; and that the object of removing
and correcting anomalies was to do that which this
bill attempted to do—not to give you a more popu-
lar representation, but to mar whatever you have
now obtained, and, in fact, as Lord Derby said, no
longer since than 1852 or 1854 I think, to stem
what he calls the tide of democracy which is
threatening to submerge the country. . (Laughter
and cheers.) This Lord Derby—(laughter)---who
by virtue, not of Parliamentnry majorities, but of.
Parliamentary accidents, is for the time Prime
Minister of England ; he stands up in the House of
Lords and makes a speech some columns in length, -
in which he treats this question as he treats the
people, with absolute contempt—(hear, hear)—and
every man who stands forward, either to instruct
the people or to represent them on this great ques-
tion, he treats as if he were an enemy to the throne,
and to the constitution, and to the people. (Hear.)
We know perfectly well that there is no monopoly
of loyalty in his (Lord Derby's) order. (Hear, hear.)
We know perfectly well that the time may come
when his order and ours may come in closer con-
flict. (Hear.) If his alone were left in these islands
where would. be the British nation ? (Prolonged
cheering.) Our order may be left here and left here
alone—(" hear," and cheers)—and the British na-
tion may be as great and as free as it has ever been
in the past ages of our history. (Renewed cheering.)
I don't want to promote discussions of questions like
these, but if Lord Derby chooses from that eminence
which he occupies and from the floor of the House
of Lords to cast his taunts upon us—(hear)—upon
our order—(hear)—upon the people in the United
Kingdom, let me tell him from this floor that there
is a power greater than his power. (Immense
cheering.) On the question of Reform there has
been a sort of mystification ever since the bill was
withdrawn on the part of the Government; at one
time we are told that they are free from their
pledges—that it is no longer a question in the r
wallet. (Laughter.) At another time we are
told that notwithstanding all that has passed,
they don't consider themselves in the least
degree shut out from dealing with it in future.
Well, I am willing to admit that I don't want
anything whatsoever from that manufactory again,
(Hear, hear, and laughter.) I should just as soon
think of going for my confectionery to that un-
happy individual who sold the celebrated Bradford
lozenges—(prolonged laughter)—as I should think
of going to Lord Derby's manufactory for a Reform
Bill. (Cheers.) However, crossing to the other
side of the house, we come to an eminent and aged
statesman, who is leader of a small section in the
house, and who was latterly Prime Minister. We
have had from Lord Palmerston some expressions
as to his views on this question, and I don't think
they are of a nature to create much confidence in
him as a Parliamentary Reform leader. (Hear.)
I understand that he does not think that a £lO
qualification for the counties is safe or desirable,
and that he is not willing to give his approval to a
proposition made in another quarter for the lower-
ing of the borough franchise to persons occupying
houses of the value of £6 rental per annum. I
have never had, as you know, any kind of faith in
the politics of Lord Palmerston. (Hear.) At the
same time, on this question I believe he may be
said to be on the whole consistent, and he has as
fair a right, of course, to his view and to act upon
it as ourselves. Therefore I don't in the least blame
him for any opinion he has expressed on this sub-
ject ; but I say that if the people of England look
to him for any real concession on this question, un-
less he change his mind very considerably, I think
they are disposed to lean on what will prove a
broken reed. (Hear, hear.) Travelling a little
further we come to another statesman not less emi-
nent, and on this question much more eminent than
Lord Palmerston. (Hear, hear.) Lord John Rus-
sell only a fewnights ago made a brief explanation
of the sort of idea which was floating in his mind
as to the kind of measure which he would think it
desirable for a Government to propose, and I pre-
sume if he were Minister he would be willing to
propose. He said he was for a £lO qualification in
the counties. I think in the last bill he proposed
that at least half of that value (and I have reason
to believe that he would agree to something more
than half) should consist of a dwelling-house, in
order to make it more difficult to create fictitious
votes. With regard to the boroughs he has made
what I conceive to be a very great improvement
in his proposition, for, instead of fixing upon any
rated value (which is a very uncertain and unsatis-
factory test on all occasions, because it varies so
much), he is willing to give to every man who lives
in a house of the value of £6 rental per annum a
vote for the borough in which he may live. This
is not the franchise which I was ready to propose,
but still it would be very unfair to depreciate the
offer that has been made, and to say that it is not
very. much in advance of every offer that has been
previously made by any statesman in the position
of Lord John Russell. (Hear, hear.) If such a
bill as that were introduced it would of course be
open for every man who thought that a further
extension was desirable to propose such change as
he thought proper—for example, the clauses that I
have introduced into m 7 bill, or any other clauses
that might carry out his view, and I should be ex-
tremely glad if a majority of Parliament would
agree to some further extension. At the same time
L I think it would be unjust to Lord John Russell,
and unfair to the question, if we were to persuade
ourselves, or to endeavour to persuade others, that
, that proposition would not be an infinitely, better
proposition for the country than half a hundred of
those fancy franchises about which so much has
been said. (Cheers.) There is a considerable sec-
tion of the House of Commons who are very much
disposed to follow the leading of Lord John Rus-
s sell with regard to this question. I am sorry to
say he has differed from them on the question of
the ballot. Judging, however, from the language
of his address to the city, of London, I cannot but
believe that if the constituencies of the kingdom
were to add to the present ballot vote in the house
50 or 60 more votes, a man of the experience and
