COURIER.—The same morning paper which has habitually held up the whole landed interest and aristocracy of Great Britain as no better than robbers and murderers, without other exception than the half' score crackbrained members of the order who herd with the Anti-Corn-law gang, treats its readers this day with a temporary relaxation of its remorseless rigours, to the effect that—" We have no wish to hold up landowners to public indignation. Would they remain contented with the great advantages which they possess in a country like this, without trenching on the rights of industry, we might think them fortunate in belonging to a country I:ke this, but we should respect them as necessary to the well-being of the social edifice. Individuate baying been vested by the State with the ownership of the land, they are of course entitled to Ten?, regulated according to the principles which determine its amount." There is something profoundly absurd in the talk about t, individuals having been vested by the State with the ownership of the land," if it is meant to be pretended that they are more favoured by the State in the possession and holding of landed property than is the proprietor of a power loom, of a cotton mill, or a modern haberdasheior gin palace. The paragraph would read to much betterrsyh sense if thus paraphrased " We have no w loan-jobbers to public indignation. Wouldtoh hold up remain contented with toe great advantages which the in country like this, of being able to sell t'leerrPwossrel7 less foreign bonds at enormous premiums, ineurrin: tno risk or responsibility themselves, without trenching on the property and rights of industry, we might think them fortunate in.laclonging to a country like this, but we should hardly respect them as necessary to the well class whatever, eel_ being of the social edifice." If the State really does concede exclusive privileges to any tainly no class is so highly favouredti as that which loans, not its own, but the money of. public,invalidity and is held law for th.e invalidity or worthlessness irresponsible by although industry, represented by the of the security, bounde by law strictly. _to give value Lor trader, is held " value received " on a Bill of Exchange.
