Editors Of tho Intelligencer: ...
England Is at this moment dominated
by audacity, personifed In the Right Hon.
orable Benjamin Disraeli. Speaking at
recent banquet in Merchant Tailors'
Hall, London, he cody announced that
the three fundamental ideas Of the Tory
party and Tory stRtesmanship, derived
from Pitt and Grenville, were 10 recon-
cile religious equality with the existence
Of National Church, to establish free
exchange Of commodities with all ma.
uons, and the extension OF political power
10 the masses in harmony with the mon
archy and with aristocratical Institutions.
RIP VAN wNKLEs.

their eyes at these discoveries ecially

posing these conclusions, Had they moi
regarded him as sent 10 curse all these
things, and loI now he blesses them alto
gelher. ......

The months Of harvest are likely to
bring on crisis, and we cannot doubt
that the victory will be with the laborers
to be followed ere long by their political
eniranchisement. The agricultural coun.
ties Of England will wear q different aspect
when the tillers Of the soil find, and dare
call, their souls their own.
