nght it in their turn rather severely. In one of the resolatione-which, by the way, was proposed by the Hon. Lyclph Stanley, and car- ried by acclamation we find the meeting viewing with indiguation the conduct of the so-called friends of the working classes in tho House of Commons, who have throughout the Session, not only on the Ballot Bill, but on other measures brought forward by the Gove eromeat, delayed their progress by factions and frivolon opposition. We also find the meeting "tondering to the Govorament and to those members of Parliament who bave emp- ported them in their efforts to break down the hage monopoly of purchase in the army, ils warmest thanks, and pledging itself to use overy effort in its support." And here emergen tho striking contrast between pisin speaking, calling a spade a spade, and offul sint and inuando. As these resolutions and Mr. Jacob Bright openly denounce the Lords and the

He not only regrete the rejection of the Ballot Bill by the House of Lords for its ova sake, but more especially for its con- aquences." What consequences?
