DEAFNESS CURED:

By the most simple, delighttul, and fragrant Compound?
Its mode of application is fraught with pleasure; many thousand
cures have been accomplished by its use, at a trifling expense, yet
certain in its operation. It testimonies be necessary to induce the
sufferer to make trial, Kings, Lords, and Commons have used it.
The Lords of the ireasury have sanctioned its use. Their late Ma.
Psties, the Duchess of Kent, the most eminent Oculists, Medical
Practitioners—with that gigantic balance, the Press—leave eulogised
Brimstone's celebrated Herbaceous Compound, known as " Grim.
stone's Eye Snuff," for its efficacy in removing all diseases incident
to the Eves and Head. G. J. Guthrie, Esq., F.B.S. See .1. B. Lech.
Geld, Fps .'s Letter, Whitehall. Dr. Thomas. Dr. Andrews calls it
a national blessing—see his Reports touching its utility. The late
Mr. Abernethy, with many others, recommend Grimstone's Eye
Inuit, and call it " Man's best Friend," and the "student's Vade
Mecum."

Dr. Andrews also recommends its use as a preventive. See his
reports in Nov. MI. He states that the tenacious sympathy of the
membrane, within the nostrils, with the nervous system, that Grim.
stome's Eye Snuff, when frequently takes, must be of the greatest
benefit to the consumer; and, further, recommends its universal
adoption as a preventative.
Dr. Thomas, of Hatfield, having witnessed many cases both of
headache and ophthalmia, has kindly given his testimony thereof.

THE ALLOTMENT SYSTEM.
c notice,
given a few days ago, the occupiers, friends, and sup-
porters of field-garden allotments, together with the
members of the Bingley Cricket Club, dined together
yesterday evening, in the Odd Fellows Hall, Bingley.
About twelve months ago Mr. Ferrand introduced the
allotment system into this parish. A field of about 15
acres in extent, the property of Mrs. Walker Ferrand,
aunt of Mr. W. B. Ferrand, M.P., was given by that
lady for the purpose of ascertaining how far the allot-
ment system would prove serviceable to the poorer inha-
bitants of the parish, on condition that she continued to
receive the accustomed rent. These 15 acres were
divided into 59 allotments, the rent of each being 11s.,
which were appropriated to 59 persons, chiefly opera-
tives engaged in the Worsted mills in Bingley and the
neighbourhood. The rent and various taxes levied on
the 15 acres amount to about 401, and cropping them to
about 60L, making the sum total expended 100/., whilst
the crop produced amount in value, at a moderate
calculation, to between 4001. and 500/. During the
whole of the present summer and autumn these fifty-nine
men and their female's have been provided with good
vegetables, many of whom are keeping two pigs, whilst
there still remains growing on nearly every allotment a
good winter crop of potatoes. Tho cultivation of these
field gardens has given hundreds rational employment
for their leisure hours, which would otherwise have been
passed in idleness or dissipation : and their wives and
families have gladly assisted in the cultivation, or en-
joyed the beautiful scenery by which the allotment
ground is everywhere surrounded.
The day being exceedingly fine, numbers of persons
came to Bingley from the surrounding townships, to
see for themselves the advantages of the allotment sys-
tem, as well as to partake of the general joy which
prevailed on every hand. Shortly after eleven in the
morning, Airs. Walker Ferrand, Mrs. Disraeli, and a
party of ladies, accompanied by Lord John Manners,
Mr. D'lsraeli, and Mr. W. B. Ferrand, proceeded to the
cricket-ground, which is about a mile from Bingley, on
the road to Bradford, where the members of the cricket
club and their friends were enjoying themselves. The
scene was gratifying .in the highest possible degree.
Lord John Manners, in the most good humoured and
unaffected manner, joined in a game of cricket.
" See thee," said a hale-looking oldYorkshireman
who stood near the writer, " I declare if 't great man
hasn't doff'd his coat, and bawn to bat our Jem's ball.
Well, to be sure, who could 'a thought it ?"
The occupiers of the garden allotmerita and their
friends, headed by a band of music, arrived on the ground
about noon, and after remaining there a few hours, re-
turned in procession to the Odd Fellows Hall, Bingley,
to dine together. The room, which is the largest in the
town, could not accommodate all who applied for admis-
sion, and many persons who had come from a distance
were, in consequence, sorely disappointed.
The char was taken by W. Busfield Ferrand, Esq.,
M.P., who was supported on his right by Lord John
Manners, M.P., the Hon. and Rev. Philip Savile, Robert
Milligan, Esq., Cowling Ackroyd, Esq., the Rev. J.
Beaumont, Incumbent of St. Mary's, Leeds ; and on his
left sat B. D'lsraeli, Esq , M.P., F. Bulmer, Esq., Dr.
Thomas Smith, Dr. M'Turk, &c.
The cloth having been removed,
The CHAIRMAN proposed " the Queen—may she long
reign over a happy, loyal, prosperous, and contented
people;" which was drank with very great applause • as
was the health of the Queen Dowager, Prince Albert,
and the rest of the Royal Family.
The CHAIRMAN, in calling upon the Hon. and Rev.
Philip Savile to propose a toast, said that as soon as it
was known that the occupiers of the allotments and
members of the cricket club intended to dine together to
celebrate the success to both, the Hon. and Rev. Gen-
tleman he was about to call upon had expressed his in-
tention to be present.—(Cbeers.) His ancestors for gene-
rations past had been honourably connected with York-
shire, and he trusted the name of Savile might long con-
tinue to be respected.—(Cheers.)
The Hon. and Rev. PHILIP SAVILII, in proposing the
health of the occupiers of the allotments, the members of
the cricket club, and that of their families, said no one
in that assembly could be more proud of the name of
Yorkshireman than he was.—Cheers.) His object in
attending their meeting was to take a' leaf out of' their
book.—(Cheers.) He intended to get up allotment
grounds in Methley, and was anxious to see what had
been done in Bingley.—(Cheers.)
The CHAIRMAN called upon one of the allotment
tenants to respond to the toast.
EDWARD SMITH said the allotment system had been
one of the beet things for the inhabitants of Bingley
that ever happened. Before it was commenced, they had
to fetch their vegetables a distance of from twenty to
thirty miles; and it was very difficult to get them fresh,
as the time consumed in their carriage was very long.
During the present summer, the occupiers, and not only
them, but the whole parish, had the pleasure of having
fresh vegetables daily--(Cheers)—and as they went
through the town carrying the produce of their allot-
ments, people cried out, " Why, you're loaded like bees
again."—(Cheers and laughter.) He had been married
twenty-six years, and never till last summer had fruit
earlier than October; and before the allotment system
was commenced, although born and bred in Yorkshire,
he had never seen a potatoe either cut or set. He was
an operative, and never had the chance of following any
agricultural operations, but now he understood a good
deal about them. When trade was good they were sup-
plied with wholesome vegetables; and if it slackened, as
he thought it was doing, they had enough laid by to keep
them and their families till spring.—(Cheers.)
The CHAIRMAN called upon the Rev. J. Beaumont to
propose " The members of the Bingley Cricket Club."
They had that day seen a Noble Lord present, the son
of a Duke throw off his coat and enjoy the old English
game of cricket, in company with the humble and
dustrious operatives of Bingley.—(Cheers.)
The CHAIRMAN, in feeling and appropriate terms,
called upon Mr. Outerside to propose " The health of
Mrs. Walker Ferrand," which was received with very
great cheering—that lady rising and repeatedly acknow-
ledging the warm and prolonged reception the mention
of her name met with.

" Tho health of the • lord of the manor, George Lane
Fox, Esq.," was next proposed, and drank with cheers.
Tho CHAIRMAN then called upon an operative to pro-
pose "Success to Agriculture and Commerce," and then
introduced

Lord JouN MANNERS, M.P., who was very cordially
received. He observed they had met to congratulate
one another on the success of the allotment system. It
had been his good fortune to be a member of the Com-
mittee of the House of Commons on that subject,
and be could safely congratulate the members of
the Bingley society on the great good, he had no hesi-
tation in saying, they would derive from it.--(Cheers.)
The time was not far distant when the great truth would
be felt and acted upon, namely, that the peasant who
had himself a stake in the hedge was a better member
of society than he who merely worked for another.—
(Loud cheers.) The speaker then referred to the advan-
tages arising from the employment of spade labour in the
cultivation of waste land ; and which he strongly recom-
mended should be tried on the small allotment plan. It
was the intention of his father :to try what an acre of
waste land, dug by the spade, would pruduce ; and he
(Lord John Manners), bad no doubt the result would
prove favourable ; indeed, he anticipated great good
from the spread of such
,societies by the increased
production of the soil of England. In allusion to the
cricket club, his Lordship, after apologising in a hu-
mourous manner for his indifferent play, said the
time was when Kings of England thought their time
well employed in giving encouragement to the manly
sports and athletic games of their people. Such clubs
were especially advantageous in bringing various classes
of society together, and he wished the example set that
forenoon might be followed. In conclusion, he trusted
they would persevere, and they would have the satisfac-
tion of thinking that the parish of Bingley was not the
last, but the foremost, to set a good example, and that
such institutions as they had established would be found
to work for the good of all, and for their children's chil-
dren ; and they might reasonably anticipate the time
when they would all be blended together by one common
interest, and thus—

" Hasten the clay
When the despot and anarch shall pass away;
When the dawn shall break, and man awake,
To the light of a fairer day."
—(Loud cheers.)
ROBERT MILLIGAN, E3q., briefly responded to that
part of the toast which referred to commerce.
Mr. TIPPING proposed the health of their worthy
Chairman.
The CHAIRMAN returned thanks in an eloquent speech,
which was repeatedly cheered. He then introduced, to use
his own words, " the talented author of Coningsby,'
Mr. D'lsraeli, M.P. for Shrewsbury ; and may the
honest men of Shrewsbury, who are not the tools of a
faction, ever remember the brightest ornament that ever
represented their city."

Mr. DISRAELI rose amidst Rauch cheering. He said
—Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen, although I to re•
turn thanks for myself and companions for the great
hOIIOIO you have done us under the not very hospitable

title of strangers who are present, I and my companions
have, in the course of this hilarious festival, almost
forgot that we were unknown to you, and have drank so
many glasses of wine, assisted by some beakers of
brandy and water, which made us feel that your hearts
were as open as our own, and that you would rather
have weleomed us as brethren than toasted us as
' strangers.—(Cheers.) I am using no hackneyed phrase
of rhetorical common-place when I assure you I was
never at a meeting which gave me so much grad-
flee don, and which I believed was more full of
hopeful and consolatory circumstances than the
present.—(Loud cheers.) I will tell you the simple
reason which causes me to entertain that opinion of
it. I have been present at grand meetings to encourage
agriculture, to reward industry, and promote what is
called a good feeling among the different classes of the
community. I have been present when those who had
received rewards for having distinguished themselves in
their proper sphere, had been, after the banquet was
over, invited to enter the chamber and and receive from
the chairman the mechanical expression of public' appro-
bation ; and these, even these demonstrations, I have
though were not to be despised, for it was my opinion
that any approximation to public feeling and sympathy
were circumstances not to be rejected with contempt—
but I must honestly tell you that I have never found in
these associations any of those means which could save a
state anything of that ancient character, the loss of which
we all deplore. But to-night everything stamped On
this meeting is indicative of that truth, of that sin-
cerity, of that deep and ancient feeling, which I think
not only augurs well for the community in which you
live, and with which my Hen. Friend, the chairman,
is so deeply concerned, but it augurs well for Eng-
land, for the country at large, and impresses on me the
irresistible conviction that, though we may be only
on the eve of a great change, it is a change that will
bring back some of those old feelings, some of those
ancient and hallowed feelings and principles of loyalty,
of good faith and mutual trust, that once made England
great, and which, in my opinion, can only keep England
great. Gentlemen, I comae not merely to be the guest of
my friend, though I know no friend I honour more and
value more than. your Chairman, but I come here be-
cause I was anxious with the Noble Lord on his right,
my companion before this time in some efforts to elevate
the condition of our community and to raise the tone of
public feeling—because I was anxious to be present on
an occasion characterised, as this meeting has been, by
a hearty desire to bind all classes together, and restore
fully and completely that ancient feeling of good intelli-
ligence which once was the boast of our country.
Gentlemen, I must say that the fruits of that movement
which is now making are neither scanty nor flavourless.
When I remember how very recently the first effort was
made to produce associations of this character, and
encourage sentiments of this description, I think those
who first originated that movement, those who had
that confidence in the character of their fellow-men,
that they believed that the people could be aided
by them with success—have no reason to complain of
the tardy justice they have received. I remember when
the Noble Lord (Lord John Manners) first published a
slight pamphlet which was to advocate the just recrea-
tions of the people. I, who know him well, knew the
strong conviction that impelled him, from a sense of
duty, to take that step. I remember—it is barely, I
think, five and twenty months ago—the frigid senti-
ments which it received from friends, the ridicule from
enemies, and have heard the sneers which have been
lavishly bestowed upon it. He (Lord J. Manners) came
forward to proclaim a truth to a careworn population.
He presunied to think that a people might be overworked.
And what was the result of that step ? Why a total
want of candour in those ranks where he might have
looked for sympathy—ridicule and insult from those
quarters where he was prepared to receive criticism.
But I can't forget that, within a week of the time I and
the Noble Lord have met the greatest meeting that ever
was assembled within four walls in the greatest city of
this country, with the exception, indeed, of the metro-
polis. And what has occurred in that city ? Why,
21,0002 have been subscribed in that city recently
to form public parks for the people.—(Hear, hear.)
Why, gentlemen, we did not want that success to induce
us to go forward, because, before we embarked
on this great enterprise, we had determined to struggle.
We were prepared for failure ; but when a very few
months hate brought us such signal success, and such
unprecedented triumphs, you may imagine what our
feelings are—you may feel assured that so long as we
have the support of our fellow-countrymen, no preju-
dice, however rooted—no dried dogmas of political eco-
nomists, however quoted—will stop us in our course, sup-
ported by the sympathy of millions, and working for the
benefit of a nation.—(Tremendous cheers.) You are hero
to-day to commemorate the institution of the Bingley
Cricket Club. Twenty-four hours after that great meet-
ing at Manchester I paid a visit to a Noble Lord—not
merely noble from blood, but from his enlightened mind,
his deep sympathy with his countrymen, and by the largo
intelligence, which well qualify him for his high position
—I mean Lord Francis Egerton—(Cheers)—and the first
thing he said to me was, " I founded a cricket club for
my cotters, and you have no idea how they enjoy almost
the first sight of the sun." I mention that, Gentlemen,
because it shows how the spirit is moving, and that so
long as it is responded to by your sympathy, by the feel;
ing of the great body of the nation, it will make its way.
Founded on a right principle, its course will be irresistible,
and the day will arrive, and not tardily, when you will
be proud, not merely of your allotment of these native
spots you have revered and cherished, but because you
took a lead in that revolution, because you were among
the first and foremost that set an example to your
fellow-countrymen.--(Cheers.) Gentlemen, the time
has come when it is utterly impossible that the great
truths upon which this movement is established can any
longer be resisted. The fact is, that society, like man,
has an immortal soul. That is a truth which, for the last
fifty years, seems to have escaped the attention of our
rulers. All that they aimed at was the material comfort
of the people, and that, necessarily on their part, has
often been left to chance ; but to suppose that a nation
has affections, that it has a heart that.can be appealed to
with success, and which, if they do not appeal to that
nature, must be unhappy, and that they must cherish and
cultivate those feelings, was a truth nearly forgotte
and the result has proved that that bundle of sties
which, while bound together, none could break, becam
disseveredi and has singly been split into lncifer matches
—(Laughter and applause.) What we desire is this-7
that England should become once more a nation,
and not a mere collection of classes, who seem to
think that they have nothing in common, ne
interest which it behoves all of them to unite
together for, and no pursuit which it is the duty of all of
them at the same time to cultivate. Now this is simply
what my Noble Friend and myself believe. We are of
opinion that it is a truth, founded on a thorough know-
ledge and complete acquaintance with the character of
our countrymen, and we are not deceived in the appeal
we have made to them. We are told sometimes, "What
do you want ?" They give us nicknames—we don't
quarrel with them that way—call us what they like.
They call us " Young England."—(Cheers.) Gentle-
men, when the Prince of Orange was anxious to vindi-
cate the liberties of his country, and save his fellow-
countrymen from the tyranny of Spain, they called his
party " The Mendicants." He said, " I accept the
term ;" and at the head of the mendicants he saved his
country.—(Cheers.) So it is with the title of Young
England—(Cheers)—given to us in derision. We ac-
cept the title of Young England; we believe there is not
an hamlet or village, a town or a city, to which that
name does not now ring hopeful tidings. We are asked
sometimes, gentlemenovhat we want? We want, in the
first place, to impress on society that there is such a
thing as duty. We don't do that in any spirit of conceit
or arrogance—we don't pretend that we are better
than others—but this we do say, that we are anxious to
do our duty ; and if we are anxious to do our duty, we
think we have a right to call on others, whether they be
rich or poor, poor or rich, to do theirs also.--(Cheers.)
Gentlemen, if that principle of duty had not been lost
sight of for the last fifty years, you would never have
heard of the classes into which England is divided ; it
had once a unity of purpose and unity of feeling, be-
cause every man, feeling the position in which he was
placed, did his duty, encouraged by the conviction that,
if entitled to rise from the sphere of a workman by talent,
the law permitted him to rise. That gate of hope, which
my Noble Friend has so properly and rightly said is
the only passage of communication, is open, it is by the
allotment system we want to see a bold peasantry, our
country's pride. Would any man, ten years ago, nay,
ten months ago, have talked of England's peasantry
being a bold peasantry, their country's pride ? Not a man
would have had the audacity. Yet that was a phrase in
every body's mouth. We are asked what we want ; we
have no mystery in telling what we want. We want to
put au end to that political and social exclusiveness which
we believe to be the bane of this country. Where
there is exclusiveness there cannot be sympathy ;
whore there is no sympathy we hold no society can be
safe. This is what we want ; perhaps we want much
more ; that is enough at present to communicate to the
public. We do not care to talk politics, or to say that
we can remedy every evil ; we have our opinion on great
public subjects, and whenever these are brought out in
the Senate, we will, with all fairness, and with modera-
tion, express those opinions, and if they are true they
will be adopted.—(Cheers.) But we are profoundly im-
pressed with this conviction, that it is not so much by
law as by manners, that we must look to the influence
of manners and not law to remedy many of the
grievances and much of the injury of our people.—
(Cheers.) We believe, then, in the influence of manners;
but how are they to influence men if they are divided
into classes, and the population of the countryb e
mesa
body of sects, and are never brought together.
believe that when the farmer and the manufacturer the
land proprietor and the great millowner—when he who
employs and he who is employed—are brought together;
when they communicate their opinions—
when they ex-
press their feelings, if there is a sympathy of intelligent
sentiment, not only would better feeling pervade all classes;
but we believe that many will discover that really they
are rather differing about phrases than facts. For this
reason there is another thing we desire, which, though I
do not wish to be particularly confidetilial as to what we

propose, I will venture to express—We have little hope
for this country so long as that spirit of faction, which
has by circumstances been raised, and which has been
rampant of late years, is fostered and encouraged. We
believe that the time has arrived when the course of that
factious spirit should be stayed, and we know no more
practicable, no surer course, any that possesses success
more speedily, than throwing ourselves in the breach.
It is nothing to meet each other in our private chamber,
to mourn while we are reading the newspapers in our
slippers over a good fire on the ill effects of faction on the
people—that may be an evidence of our philosophic spirit,it
is not in our opinion a testimony of our eivic courage.
Therefore we have come among you to meet you and
congratulate you on what you have done, and stimulate
you to future efforts—to encourage you by the ex-
pression of our sympathy as public men, who are ready at
all times to uphold those opinions which we profess
on this solemn subject, when we believe them, as
we have expressed to-night, sound, virtuous, and true. I
can assure you that what you have stated in this cham-
ber to-night fills my mind with the greatest hope for the
future. It is only meeting men that can prove the tem-
per of their minds. You may speculate for ever about
public opinion—you may calculate the affairs of parties
and the probable duration of particular interests—but
unless you mix with men—unless you have the sincere
expression of their feelings—unless you have a temper
of mind that can endure criticism and submit to investi-
gation—it is utterly impossible to form an acquaintance
with the opinions of the nation in which you live. Now
I will illustrate that by the subject which particularly
calls us together this evening. How often have you
heard of the allotment system? See what it has done.
You will hear the sympathy of parties indulging in
panegyric on the allotment system, and summoning some
proprietor of the spade to receive, before an aristocratic
assembly, some reward; but he has no opportunity, and,
probably tae courage to express his feelings on the oeca•
sion ; but at the meeting respecting the Bingley
allotments you have been represented to-night by one
most competent to express your feelings in natural ora-
wry, and with that humour peculiar to Yorkshire, and
with a shrewdness all his own. He had only one fault
in his speech—it was too short. I only wished myself
that he had been examined before that Committee of the
House of Commons, of which my Noble Friend was a
member, on the subject of protection to agrimilture ; he
would have perplexed some of the political economists.
This is a great result of our meeting, as far as the forma-
tion of any individual experience is concerned—it is a
great fact that I have heard a man who is himself in
possession of one of those allotments, come forward, and,
before a large and mixed meeting of his fellow• country-
men, express the results of his experience and the strong
convictions of his mind. I say it assists the formation
of my opinions, and aids my expression of them in the
public assembly. You are new only a grain of mus-
tard seed, but I am sure you will swell into a goodly
tree. You will meet my offer, I feel confident, to
commemorate fresh and greater triumphs of your
temper and industry ; never, I am sure, however,
der happier auspices than those which have called you
together to-day—the landlord, who is your friend, and
she to whom you paid a characteristic tribute of natural
affection.--(Cheers.) Although the allotments may
yield sevenfold, though you may meet in a more splendid
chamber, and in greater numbers, it is not probable that
you will ever assemble together under circumstances of
such peculiar interest as the present, for we are no w,
i
watching the infant in its cradle—though I believe t is
an infant Hercules—we tend it with some feelings of
anxiety, almost as much anxiety as affection.—(Cheers.)
I hardly venture to be a prophet ; I have had too much
experience of public affairs to indulge in that hazardous
luxury, but this I will say, that success is yours, if you
deserve it—if you only continue to be industrious as I
am assured you are—if you continue well to meet in
the same spirit of confidence and respectful sympathy as
you have gathered this day—if you are really animated
by an earnest desire to bring about those days of merry
England which my Noble Friend has advocated under
such difficult circumstances, but which he who is young
will live, I believe, to see revived—if you do this you
will succeed, because you will be true to yourselves, and
true to your country.—(Great cheering.)
