Depend upon it. we can only succeed in girding the people of this country out of their present unsettled condition, and in making them contented and happy, by strength- ening the church her temples must he increased, and her blessings extended both through the assistance of the State. and by the efforts of individuals, through the length and breadth or the land a sound religious education must be provided for the whole people, under the snperinlendsnce )f tike clergy. Truth and not expediency must he the motto of our statesmen, and then, and not before, can we expect that Kngland mav become what she has been of old, the happiest as well as one of the greatest nations in the world. C. it. M. Talbot, listj., t'i n addressed the vast assemblage. A Iter some prefatory remarks of a ra! nature, he said that he sincerely thanked tham fur the honour they h id conferred upon him by electing him member f'r the important county of Glamorgan, lie would avail himself of that opportunity to give an explanation of his published address to the electors of the county. lie feared a false construction had been put upon that address by many of his constituents (hear, hear, hear ) In that address he had endea voured to express, as plainly as the Eoglish language would allow him. his disapprobation of the present course pursued by her Ni ijes'.y s ministers in dissolv- in parliament upon the question of the import duties (hear.) He had also expre-sed a hope, a false one, he perceived, that in the parliament about to be assem- bled. party politics would no longer furlll the leading characteristic. Having heard tbe speech delivered by his honourable friend, Lord Adare, he feared that he (Lord Adare) would not join him in that hope (hear ) As it appeared to liiin (Nit- Talbot) that his expectations in that respect would not he realized, he would proceed to state in detail a few of the reasons that had induced him to come to the conclusions con- tained in his address, lie said that he would not detain them by giving a hllg list of the measures adopted and opposed by the two great parties in parliament, with the sole view of destroying each li other. The \Vhi»s and Tories, to use a-i expression of a very strong writer Cobhclt were both tarred with the same brush (hear. hear, and laughter.) As a strong illustration of his argument. Mr Talbot wmild advert to the ministerial budget lately placed on the table of the House of Commons He thought that budget, and the discussions to which it had given rise, the strongest instances of party feeling prevailing liver justice that he had ever witnessed, Ile di,i lot blame one party more than the other. Any man in the country who was not biind"d by party feeling, must he aware that the iiiiiii "i terial budget was alto- gether a party move; and also that it was opposed, not on its merits, but because it emanated from a VVhi" o-overnment. He did not speak of individuals, but of partips In the late division on the sugar question, merchants, who were of the Tury party, were so far biassed by party feeling, as to Vlltt. against their own direct interests in favour of the duty on foreign su ar Iwing continued. lie thought he was justified in concluding that party feeling was stronger with those individuals than their own interests. Mr Taibot then adverted to the corn question. A few of his introductory sentences we cou d not hear. We understood him to say that the present duty oil corn was 5s 9J. the pro- posed duty was 8s. It might be asked, why he opposed it? He opposed it because he kjjt-v t' proposition to be a deception. lie bad seen enougo of party tactics to know that the fixed duty was proposed with a view to enable ministers to keep their places. If they were convinced of the immt-nse advan- tages to be derived from a fixed duty, why did they n(it bring forward the question before Why did they leave a period of ten years to elapse ? If th-y were III possession )(* valuable secret, how was it not made known to the country ? Thoae circumstances, those reflections were to him r Taibot) a convincing proof that the measures introduced by government were only intended to serve the interestsof patty He had stated to some members of the government his opinions on the subject the evening the budget was laid on the table. He bad told them that they were breaking up the Wliiif party that they were perfectly unjustifiable in not coining forward before with, those measures, if they were in the possession o! the secret. But he (Mr Talbot) did not believe there was any discovery at all. He beiieved it was altogether a delusion, and brought forward atthis particular juncture to serve the interests of party. These measures were opposed by the Tories because they were proposed by the W higs; and they were proposed by the Whigs with a view to keep in power the present government. He (Mr Talb It) gave his vote in favour of a reduction of the du'y on foreign sugar. He saw that the protecting duty on colonial sugar was unreasonable — HO percent; while tbe duty on corn was only 1*2 p?r cent. The duty o i Brazilian sugar was 2:10 per cent., and he though it was a most unreasonable amount of protection. In favour as he (i\Jr Talbot) was of a protecting duly, stid when it became too high. it was injurious to all interests. With respect to the argument, that admitting f reign sugar would be encouraging slavery, Mr Talbot seemed to be of opinion that it was extremely futde and inconsistent. Upon what principle could they object to receiving slave grown sugar, when they admitted slave grown tobacco, slave grown cotton, and a variety of other articles, the production of stave I d>o ir ? fc\ < ry man present who had a cotton shirt on,wore the prodir too of slave labour. Every man who sin iked a pipe, or who had a quid of tobacco in his mouth, encouraged slavery as far as tlll'Y went. Jn fact any person who had a shilling in his pocket hud the produce of slavery. With what sort of consistency eoijld they tite introduction of foreign sugar upon the ..•round that it would be encouraging slavery S:ave ;rll\VD sutrar is admitted into England: it is refined by Rn«^lisli manufacturers; and still they will not allow it to go into the mouths of Knglishmen. but they do allow it Ut bfi consumed by Frenchmen. :\1 rO Talbot next adverted to the timber question. He said the Baltic timber w;js sn iir^ljs ot small con- sumption. comparatively, and still it was proposed to reduce the duty on Baltic timber, for the purpose of increasing it on Canadian timber, which was ex- tensively used- It had been said that the Canadian timuer was uearly worthless; lie (Mr 'Talbot) had used imumifse quantities of it; the American Red il',ie \&,as t'; V I)jaAt %v(iod for a variety of I)iir- poses. Ills opinion oj' *yi|il.a Pine we could not catch, but we understood him tg sp,eq4 ir, favour of it Mr Talbot could ti )t ftt ali agree tljat j,t H'as ne- cessary to increase the doty on Canadian timber. Many poor men who were now ,Il )iit tt) bull,l a cotta"e for themselves, would not be able with an jidvance on the timber dnty. After som>; further reiii^ifes, which we v ry indistinctly heard, Mr Talbot the corn qjesti,)AI. He had already told them that lie cftijsidered the proposed fixed duty of 8s all increase rathe? a reduction and that was one objection be had to the ul^ej-ation; but the C, principal objection he had to the ministerial measure was, that it. jvould render (iiis country dependent on foreign coi'ot.rirs fur tl/e m^ans of subsistence lor the peopTe. -u Cold blooded «.C0h0«*isWi" i.n speaking ol tin., subject woull say the people mustgiF«»pcom grow ir.g. and to potion spinuing, >Vguin, if political economist# *ere t«!d that » 'W accustomed to agri- cultural pursuits, accustomed U) the pV'gh. would uot be able to manage a spi«»i«g JeW. their repiy would be —If they wilt not fie able {.<» g bveji hood by cotton spinning, their children *»MSt be t9iH,t to do so.

He was enthusiastically cheered at the c m'-lusion for some minutes. A vote of thanks to the Sheriff for his impartial i-ond ict was proposed bv Viscount Adare, seconded by C. H. M.
