t afforded us great pleasure to read Lord BROUGHAM'S
liituvie and temperate speech cn the Collieries Bill, de•
ketirel on Monday evening. Nor was our pleasure
th,kitt'bed, by perceiving a coincidence in the views of
)„mmoble Lord, with those we have laid before the
"S of The Sun, though expressed neither so cau-
thelts,..lk, so elegantly, nor so fully as were the views of
ht. -ktble and Learned Lord. Were our legislators to
kguided by half the discrimination the Noble Lord
irlcated on them most ably and eloquently—were
ato make themselves only tolerably well ac-
plki ilted with the feelings, habits, and wishes of the
:ug-classes, the Statute-book would be far less
44111, tiered than at present with worthless laws, and the
cle chasm which now separates the classes would
ehtsteelY exist. In truth, the eager zeal of the upper
di 74 to legislate for the colliers, comes from the sud-
iitilitleso with which the upper classes have become lie-
th:icted, for the first time in their lives, with
ot; condition of the collier population. They
More alarmed by the strangeness of the
kstne
si than by their actual inhumanity, and their law
us,
more the offspring of their ignorance than of a
Ike Plete and mature knowledge. There are many other
4?Potions, probably, as full of hardship and suffering
4°" of the colliers, with which their Lordships, from
'fitillg heard of them before, have no desire to meddle.
a,t ,clatriple, Lord BROUGHAM said :
ist"l2tb reference to the effect of trades on health, it was the
1441 which men lived. that they should earn their bread, not
114 by the sweat of their brow, but by the wear and tear of
hi constitutions. It was as lamentable as true, that many
lam" °Yments there were which were not healthy any more than
try" and he was almost afraid to think of the vast number of
IteltPenB in which the labouring classes were, and asnst be,
,Stitutlled in trades which tended directly to injure the con-
et °n, and to shorten life. Ihe subject was a painful one.
tisge was forced upon its consideration, not so much
."e particular measure before the House, as by measures
;Oiniilar tendency, which he was sure would spring from
the the
he was sure were lurking in its wake. How many
h..,e 'sere men engaged in, trades the effects of which para.
It„d the limbs, such trades as those in which paint and %Alike
Ne Were used, or such trades as that of brazicry, which
steortted peculiar complaints, or those trades in which
%Il•i Slings were used or produced, which gave ri,e to asth-
Nay:,. complaints. Again, let any man go amongst the
sseutrY, and examine the difference between the peasant who
ftn Passed his time in hard labour up to the time of, perhaps.
dy le7fivt, years of age, and the man of seventy, who had
. passed
lioje in the ordinary pursuits in whlch men of. their Lord-
ti4 station in society were generally engaged in. Let any
•in ,coropare the two ; he would put the man of forty-five or
VeltinAnwn for seventy years of age, and in the other case he
topt be likely to fix the age of the man of seventy at from
Y-five to fifty years.
Commissionerslhe for inquiring into mines, how-
ev,r
th I have based one of their more effective appeals to
eLegislature on the effects of labour in the collieries
developing
k and distorting the frame, and on the early
ilind at which colliers become old men. But Lord
.L.7l3GitAm's remark that all hard-worked men, even
tntling the peasantry, are much sooner old men than
gentry, who are well fed and work very little, and
colliers being one and all hard-worked men, shows at
1..." the error which has been produced in our eager
(Talators by the partial and exaggerated Report
the Commissioners, In the Report of the
eCt'lavi Commissioners for 1842, which is full
tho valuable information concerning the influence of
circumstances to which the labouring classes are
hpo
sh443ed on their health and mortality, to which we
th I again speedily refer, it is stated of Derby, that
rise average age of professional persons or gentry is
rtZtY'lline years, of tradesmen, thirty-eight, of labourers
attizans, twenty-one ; of Rutland, that the average
Or of the first is fifty-two, of the second forty-one, and
ril,t4 third thirty-eight ; and of Manchester. that the
• tly:gge age of the first is thirty-eight, of the second
in,,7.tY, and of the third seventeen. 'Without now enter-
er' "o the question of the comparative mortality
by tctvu and country, though that is not settled
ribit ttell tables, unless the migration from one
to tkr`ct to the other be ascertained, we refer
lh'qe uniform greater mortality or shorter lives of the
to:uring classes than the classes of traders and gentle-
of which these are only specimens, as a complete
ti:firmation of the grave principle laid down by Lord
men"Grlalti d a full refutation of the implied state-
ant
liveaf the Commissioners that the colliers are shorter
a than other overworked men. Let us add that while
moderate portion of useful wealth producing labour
lest:Ltnot shorten the lives of the gentry, it might, by
kid cing the excessive toil of all the labouring classes,
much
tcuch to the averag
14ted ie duration of their lives, and
iucrease their health and happiness while they

got tt -as admitted that the Legislature could not or s i
should
e nterfere in such cases, then he averred that a certain n-
