MI the world responded. Tho consequence
has been that England Inns bccame MI cnor-
moua creditor. Her interest list OH foreign
loans npprosimatas closely rl00, 900, 900 per
nnnum and she con afford to import f3
wort1, Of goods for every E2 shc exports !;
tho balanco against her will moro than
bo made good by tic transportation profits
and the interest duo from abroad. These
facts account for tho remarkable phenomenon
presented In that little ia1apd, whero two
thirds OF the inhabitants livo in towns, a
great part Of tho country IL taken MP for tho
uses Of landed aristocracy. and tho averngo
Of comfort is aa high rs In any other popu-
lous region.
Ono Of the recent reviewers Of Mr.. Con-
nEN's career says OF him, epigrammnticnliy
"Fron, his childhood he had hntel soldier,
tlisflked Lori, aud loved m American"
This tcrse summary OF his character fur
nisl'cs key to tho third idea Of his life,
which haa not rs yet bcon realized in prac-
tice. tfc believed TINT tho adoption Of Froc
Trade would tend largely to bring about nm
era Of universal pcaco and freedom. Events
1lavo not thus far justified his opinion.
ConnEx lived to negotiate personally com.
,nercinl treaty of the freest description be.
tween Franco and England, and to SEQ
tho Zollvcrein In successful operation ];
bnt he also lived to hear of Balaklava,
Solferino, and Gettysburg, and ho died
but few years before sadowa, Sedan, mud
plevna We are not prepared to say, how
over. that lie was altogether wrong in Lis
pence views. There aroi some burning qucs-
tipns that cannot be snuiIcd out by any hui
man contriranco; they must bo fought out.
American slavery was ono Of these, 1salian
independence was another, German unity
was third, Mollammcdan rulo in Europe fs
fourth. But those questions arc gradually
being removed from tie arena Of dis
cusaion. As they are settled one by one,
tho prospect Of pacifcation becomes ncarer.
Who shall say, then, TINT 1Ir. CoppES's prop
osition is not tsnable It Is. utter all, merely
tho statement Of tendency. Freedom
of trade unquestionably does tend to ro-
move prejutlices Of race, religion, aud adu-
cation; and In tho same degree 1t must tond
to remove the Causes Of NATIONAL 1nisuntler-
standings. Tho day is early yet for tho
adoption in practice OF CoDprS's sche,no for
international arbitration and mutunl 1isarin-
an,ent, but we may believe that the states-
mans dream Of no moro wars ia not wholly
vain or chimorical.

C0BDEN AND HIS WQBK

static OF RICHARD CoapES wns unveiled
ut Bradford, Eng, few weeks ago, and the
occasion was improved by Mr. Joux Dnronr
to mako one Of tho most eloquent speeches
Of Ills lie. The achievements Of conDEN
might woll be celebrated by slr. BR1ouT.
Their acquaintance was formed beforo tho
agitation for tlse rcpeal OF tho Corn laws be-
gan, and 1t continued until 1t was terminated
by ConpEs's death. They laboroa together
for tho Repeal, aud both enjoyed Tho fruits
Of victory. conpES was tho primo mover In
the agitation. He had two Ideas, the adop-
ton OF which ho considered essential to tho
prosperity Of Ills country, and he never resi-
cd until le convinced Parliament that he was
right. His first idea was TINT the Corn laws
wero erroneous In principle and pesnicious In
practice. Dependent upon and proceeding
from this was bis second proposition, that
tho tux on the Importation Of raw snaterials
used'tn manufactures ought to be re-
moved. ConnEN's argument was that no
system Of taxation which artilcial}y raised
pricos all around could be benefit
to any class Of producers. The Corn law.
prohibited the importation Of corn by asraug-
ing sliding scale Of duties, according to
domestic prices. AZ tho market price Of tho
home crop declined, the duty on the foreign
crop increased. The theory on which these
laws were based was, that, tho homo market
being confined to home producers, the limit
cd supply Of corn would fctch higher prices,
Such, indeed, was tho result. But Counrs
