Notwithstanding the storm, there was a
full attendance of the people of Gardiner to
hear the lecture by Rev. w. II. II. Murray
of Boston, on 'Deacons." The lecture was
received with great favor, and contained some
sharp hits on the long faced, iceberg chris
tians, and the various phases of bigotry
that may be found in the garb of religion.

by any person, under any circumstances, but
when it comes to be made by a member of Con-
gress, in public meeting, it can hardly be over
looked, and Mr.. Cox should be invited to bring
forward his proofs, if he does not himself de-
mand an investigation, at the earliest opportu-

twenty nine States and the District of Columbia
were represented, accomplished more in less

men with very decided opinions on in

along very harmOniously, and in session of a

bass for calculation of policy reserves; the
agreement upon hberal policy toward COM

WASHINGTON CITY:
I, 1871.

English papers received BY the Hermann.
which arrived in New York day before yester-
day, are fUll Of speculations and comments upon
the reported compact between the peers and the
wOTkingmen, with many additional facts in
reference thereto. The workingmen's platform,
which il was said DisraeIi and his tory friends
were to champion in consideration Of obtaining
the support of the labOring classes, consisted of
seven resolutions, IT will he remembered, the
points of which were briefly A homestead
law like ours. by which families may be re-
moved TO suburban placcs; self government in
counties, towns and villages, with powers for
the disposal of land; eight hours days labor;
public schools for technical instruction; public
markets for the sale of goods at Wholesale prices;
places of amusement and recreation at public
expense: and railways to be purchased by gov
eminent and conducted for the public good.
Both lords and labOTers, il seems, arc now dis
clainiDO any par dcpation in the proposed ar
rangenent. Lord Salisbury writes to the London
Daily NelCs denying that he signed the resolu-
tons heretofore published, OF expressed any
approval of them. They were shown to him
last summer, and he sympathized with
the wish to obtain better dwellings for the
wOrkmen of our great cities, but expressed
my strong disapproval of several of the
proposals contained in the resolutions"
Su StaLOru NOrlnCOte j. more eXpllc1t In letter
to the Exeter Ga Eetts. He says: None of the
nOblemen or gentlemen whose names have
lately been brought under public notice have
signed, or in any way intimated their agree
ment with, any of the resolutions which have
been published, or any resolutions at all; nor
has any meeting taken place between them and
any council or body of workingmen. All that
has passed, so far as I am aware, is that some
peers and members of Parliament have expressed
their willingness to consider any suggestion for
legislation on questions affecting the well-being
Of the working classes, and to discuss them in a
friendly spirit. No such suggestions, however,
have as yet been made in a form admitting of
consideration" The workingmen, on their
part, seem just as anxious to disclaim any par
tscipatiOn in the reported combination. Alta
large meeting of artisans and laborers in London
Mr. Winn and Mr.. Osborne both spoke strongly
against any combination with tory lords, and
repudiated the power assumed by the ''work-
ing" side of the coalition Of representing the
working classes. The propositions were declared
II be "MOre" TO cheat the people. In the other
speeches made il was declared that the advocacy
of republican principles would advantage the
people more than any combination with the
tories, who, it said were endedroring 10 cheat
the 0Tt.S0H class.
