"Dr. rickford is known to English readers by his frequent practl-
-051 cantriinations to German medical literature. This is the Brit
time, he informs to, that ho has addressed himself to the non-medi•
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect an,
other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to cor-
rezt."—London Medical Gazette. " The tribe of Quiet Sympathisers,

plaint of which it treats, wo are 'satisfied that many hundreds would

The paramount object of" The Statesman" will be to promote the
interest of the entire nation, irrespective of party or personal consi-
derations: It Hone Politics " The Statesman" will support those
principles of our constitution which have been established by the
will and reason of the English people, and will urge he extension of
political power in correspondence with the increasing intelligence of
the community. In accordance with these principlo, " The States-
man" will seek to correct the abuses and amend the defects of the
representative system; it will support all measures for completing
the great work of commercial reform; it will aid in developing the
municipal power of local bodies, with a view to a more faithful and
vigilant administration of local affairs, and a more prompt execution
of the measures required for promoting health and general well-
being.

The subject of Education is one which now occupies the most
anxious thoughts of all earnest thinkers. `• The Statesman" will
endeavour to obtain the cordial co-operation of all those practical
reformers to whom the public good is the supreme consideration.
In pursuing this object, it will not confine itself merely to a discus-
sion of the various schemes which have liven proposed for the educa-
tion of the labouring classes. The worst evils under which the
nation is now suffering, sprint mainly from the want •f such a
system of education among the middle and hirher classes as would
teach them to be more earnest in the fultllment of their duties.
Without a reform in that direction we cannot expect much improve-
ment in the government of the nation from any system of education
for the poorer class.

The principles of our own Constitution will be the guide in Foreign
Policy, with a view to render it just, bold, d uncompromising.
"The Statesman" will act wi;h those politicians who seek to aid
and animate the Government in giving its cor.iial co-operation to
foreign states struggling to develops a freedom cognate with our own
—a policy of alliance with constitutional governmen's forming the
only true and practical counteracting force to the dynastic combina-
tions now threatened la Europe
As regards India, wide diversities of opinion prevail. " The
Statesman" will endeavour to show that the time has come for
organizing the Government of that vast empire in a manner alike
consistent with the dictates of Christianity, the welfare of India,
and the true interests of Great Britain. Party Politicians and Anti-
National Journalists may try to show that, is India, these objects
are irreconcileable. "The Statesman" will seek to unite those
patriots wbo believe that the national conscience,and an enlightened
regard for the national weal, equally demand that our Eastern
Empire shall no longer be governed by the short-sighted policy of
Lea denb all- street.

The startling events of the last few years, no less than the present
aspect of affairs, hive taught politicians that the efficiency of the
army is one of the first elements of national independence and na-
tional strength. "The Statesman' will give Its hearty support to
the various measures required to make the army, in the largest
some of the word, efficient, and accessible to all ranks of her Ma-
jesty's subjects.

In the Literary portion of the paper the main object will be to
give the readers of " The Statesman" full and accurate information
as to what is going forward in the various departments of the Book-
world.
