tered Parliament, in S47 with the reputation of being
one of the most eloquent men in England. dc was

preacher and lecturer at the Unitarian chapel in Fins

Lectures for the Working Classes, and book,

leader and the remarkably democratic letters ap-
pearing weekly over the signatures &" Publcca' and
"Caustic." The original "Pubicola" was Mr.. VIII
ams decidedly the most violent liberal writer on the
London press, during twenty years Of his connection
with it. Mr.. Fox did not achieve such Parliament
ory success as was anticipated. He was toomuch of
lecturer, and toned down his own striking and brilliant
rhetoric into something too ddactc. There was sound
and force in what he said he was always heard
with attention. though his talents actually exercised
no influence in the House. He the decided advo-
cate Of separation OF Church and State, coDtending
that every religious sect should support its own minis
ters and none Others His prncpa! speeches IN Par
lament were on the question of national education.
He was an outspoken man who had no hesitation IN
declaring that in his opinion, Palmerston was Tory
in guise of Wing and that Lord John Russell was
humbug He was always pointed out TO strangers in
the gallery as of the euriosities of the House of
Commons. Very short in stature, stout even to ro-
tundity, with finely formed head, the hair parted in
the middle and falling down in ringlets on the Shout

mistaken for anybody elfe.
Another rejected author is Mr.. Edward Mail, lately
member for The borough OF Rochdale-a place by the
way, which once belonged to Lord Byron This gen.
tleman was an Independent minister for many year,
and went to London sixteen years ago to establish The
Noncontor7a,t, weekly newspaper in support Of the
Voluntary principle and directed, Of course, against
any endowment of any Church by the State. This
Journal still carried by Mr.. Mail, has been very
successful. Many articles which originally appeared
in il have been collected revised and repubshed in
book form under the titles Of The NOncOntormst
Sketch Book" Ethics Of NOnconformsts,' &c.
Mr.. Mail first entered Parliament 1852, hav-
ing been an unsuccessful candidate at South
wark in 1916 end at Halifax in 1917. lie avowed the
most liberal opinions, and has been consistent IN his
advocacy Of them. But he was failure, very de-
cdedly, as Parliamentary speaker His oratory
was not that Of man of the world but of preacher;
and though the matter was good, the unfortunate
manner was the cause OF moro laughter thap
admiration. The Church-and State party lof whom
the late Sir Robert Inglis was leader in the Commons
knowing by experience how forcibly Mr.. Mal wrote
against them, rather anIiously awaited his exhibition
as Parliamentary speaker, and were greatly pleased
at finding that he did not succeed. Subsequently he
changed his manner, but without effect, for nothing
could remove the unfayorable impression of his unfor
tunate opening attempts. Latterly he had seldom
spoken, though he never failed TO vote.

opposed the Chinese war. However, as he is only 40
wears old, and has established deservedly high repu

in Parliament again.
Mr. Cardwel, co.edilor OF the autobogTaphca
