lieve it to be true that the government
lives purely upon credit; which is to
say, the confidence of the people in that
government.
Now, we may reason IN this mat
ter from the lesser relations of our
daily life. What manner of man do we
most trust among those whom we
meet? Surely, the honest man, the plain
man, the one whose directness and in
tegrity we do not doubt. Truly you
may witness the nature Of such man
in the manner of his speech, in his
mien, in his conduct Therefore, my
lords and gentlemen, it seems to me
plain that we shall best gain confidence
for ourselves if we act in the most
simple fashion.
Let US take up this matter direct
ly with parliament, not seeking to
evade the knowledge of parliament in
! any fashion; for, as we know, tae par
! lament and the king are not the best
| bed-fellows these days, and the one is
| ready enough to suspect the other.
Let JUS have bill framed for parlia-
ment-such bill made upon the deci-
sions of these learned gentlemen pres
| ent. Above all things, let us act with
perfect openness.
GAS to the plan itself, it seems that
a few things may be held safe and
sure Since we cannot use the old coin,
then surely we must have new coin,
milled coin, which Charles, the earlier
king of England, has decreed. Surely,
too, as our learned friend has wisely
stated, the loss in any recoinage
ought. in full justice and honesty,
| to fall not upon the people of
England, but upon the government
| of England. 1t seems equally plain
| TO me there must be day set
after which the old coin may no longer
be used. Set it some months ahead
not, as my Lord Keeper suggests, but
few days; so that full notice may be
given to all. Make your campaign free
and plain, and place it SO that it may
be known, not only of parliament, but
| of all the world. Thus you establish
yourselves in the confidence of parlia-
sment and in the good graces of this
| people, from whom the taxes must ul-
timately come"

gazed steadfastly at this young man
who stood before them, calmly, as

such Il task without the aid of an army.
The socialist revolutionary party, Sas-
soneff said. is entirely different from
the party of the national will" which
slew Emperor Alexander II. This lat
ter party, he said, was engaged in n
desperate duel with the autocracy, in
which to annihilate was the sole aim
and object. The social evolutionary
party is q peaceful propaganda to show
the evils of autocracy and gradually in
culcate the principles Of socialism
among the classes of the nation.
This peaceful mission encountered the
relentless opposition of certain minis
