Well, gentlemen, I come now to the Batter of thn address. I am sure you will not expect of me that I should endeavour on an occasion like thk to detain you by reproduciag Um feeble image of a scene to House of Commons.

But I own the ceoerositv wi which the country at large ha on every occasion acknow. ledrea toe honest ermeavours of iu public tneo to render rrrice. Those public men are grateful for those acknoi lrirmenta. and. relv upon it.

thev will form with them fresh mMive to exertion.

(Hear, hear.) The revenue of the country, independently of iu immediate l'ine of suiDlTin the wanU of the exchequer, has another most important use in indicating the condition of the country.

Although the pre" a re upon those interetU that are itrmediatclr connected with the nse of capital hat. iuriog the last three months, gone beyoud former precedent, ret, at the same time, the demand for labour has cnulisued almost without diminution. The state of the capital and industry of the country hat, upon the a hole, been maintained, and the people thrive and proswr, so that we have seen on this, as oo several waiotii, that together with the remarkable tranti tiu which has tv en eJectcL and in which Lord Her lert had so distinguished a shsre. from a intern cf fettered and trammelled to one of open and free ivdnvtry, we have net only seen, as one of lU results, an enormous extension of the buines of the country, but we ave likewise seen that it vat commercial transactions I.ae attained to a degree of tteadineat and consolidation sack as never before was known. bear," and cheers.) Well, gentlemen, yon advert, and I cannot wonder that you advert, to that question which hat been the absorbing question of the present year I mean the subject of lform.

(Cheers.) Upon that subject, gentlemen, I feel that the country unquestionably not in the dark, so sr ee my opinions, desires, and intentious sre concerned. (Hear, hear.) No oue has accused me of any undue reserve in the business of putting my countrymen in session of all that I had to say hear, hear," and Uughter), so far at it might be regarded by them as a matter of interest. In truth, gentle lien, I have tad a task to perform which, I fear, has ea bevond my. strength oo. no and to my defec i.iirnnni.

of ht 1" I don't UV VOU (Uuibter) but, at any rate, many impute, at they bave a perfect right to impute If they think fit, the failure or we tuiaearrisge during the present year of that great question. I may not, perhaps, wholly concur in the opinion (langhter), but, "at the same time, I feel that it it an opioioo which tbev have a nerfect riht to entertain if tber think fit, and siich. if thev entertain it. thev do better to express. (Hear, he'.) However, gentlemen, what I observe it thk, that ier is a groat aisioeiinsuon wt express aoj farther reform of Parliament Hear, hear." and cheers).

and there being a great disinclination to ex press plainly that aversion other roodet are adopted of accounting for the fail or that has occurred. One of thoae modes has been, at I hare said, so personal to myself (laugbteri that I think it letter to pass br that tonic altoeather. only assuring you that if it be my fate to take a further part in the prosecution of that question Hear, and cheers) I shall booeetly endeavour to avoid any faulu which I may bave heretofore committed, and at the same time, while endeavouring to avoid those faults. I shall also endeavour to avoid aay of those half hearted modes of speech asdactioa 'Hear, bear," and great eheeringi which undoubtedly are In favour with certain portions of the com in unity.

Sir, Then bo subject apoa which to much mlssppre heosioo seems to prevail a with respect to the number of person composing aay large assemblage of people. In the day of tUtirtioal research, however, on ouU hardly ban expected to bear a revival of the fooUah talk one currenj with respect to tb Reform meetings of 1832 and Um Repeal gathering of 1843, as to hundred of thousand being present en any such ocoatioa. Ytt thk what has been done witb regard to reotnt meeting at Birmingham and other place. Tboa who indulge la th ee exaggeration ban. I believe, ia moat cases, ao Intention of deceiving.

Tb fact that their calculation have ao exact bats to rest apoa, aad therefore their language vagu and loooo se quent. Something of this, perhaps, attributable to Um subject itself, which calculated to bring the imtgina Un faculty Into play.

For my part I believe that, except ia military amy, 50,000 moo aerer. tteamhlttl for oo ob ject la 00 piece.

Th greet ait exhibition of number that probably ever occurred ia England waa the meeting of working men aad trade unionist la Copen hagen fields 00 tb Zlat of April, 1834. Theee teen bled for tb purpose of bearing to the Horn office a petition praying for the remission of tb at passed apoa eoca Dortetahir labourer convicted of ad ministering unlawful oath. From tb fields ia which they taaiinihlnii they marched through Loudon to Whitehall, and thence to Knnl ngtoo eom mon. It wa aa Imposing spectacle as regarded numbers, and not likely to be forgotten by those who witnessed it. On this oeoation tb usual vague earlmtta respecting number wen haxarded by those who bad taken no trouble to be accurate.

Boot thing Uk what I ban Imagined about the bushel of corn actually oucuiied then for, by turning to the file of Tke Timet, it will be seen that the numbers wars estimated a low at 8,000, and as high a 2.000,000. Both estimate wen wide of th mark, though not equally to It wat demonstrated that the aumben did not exceed 55,000. Aa enormous multitud undoubtedly, the like of which. believe, bad not been teen before, and hat aot beea wit nessed since. Kow, at regard tb late meeting at Birmingham, Mr, Bright thinks it highly probable that Um number present amounted to 240,000.

an ao accustomed to exaggeration that thoee figure will pas under the eye of most per eon without giving rise to special observation. It if euly when we condasoesd to particulars," aa tba Scotch aay, that th monstrous absurdity of Mr. Bright' estimate become apparent. Why, Sir, la tb population table of the last Census th whole mala population of the whole eouaty of Warwick above 30 yean of age given a only and, therefore, if every maa of them bad beea present tbey would ban furnished forth litU mon than half Mr. Bright' estimate.

But we ought to set aside the men abov 50 yean of age. At that time of Ufa men bave usually town their political wild oats, aad can little about Reform demonstration." Deducting these, tba whole of th available men left ia th whole of the oonnty to oak up th 240,000 wbom Mr, Bright suppoee to ban been aasembled in a field sear Birmingham just 12S.523. We ought, however, stfll to deduct the inmates of workhouse. Infirmaries, and gaolt the blind, th lame, and persons rick at borne. Bat it ntceetary to pro ceed further? Yes, just one instance more.

In the account given of th aatembling of the men, who were to march in six division to tb field, the port of heoonr assigned to the great body of men employed in th metropolitan and other carriage companies' work and the working jewel lers," Hen we get at something definite. The great body of men," tc, prepares on for a long line of stalwart fellow stretching out like Banquo't Um almost to tb crack of doom. Ah I I thought, a I turned to the population tablet. Bright will prove to be right after all. Tbi must be the great Reform preserve.

How many of the men and of men engaged in other branches of trade took part in the proceedingi whether a tilth, a fourth, or even a half I bave no meant of determining but that an im' me nse number wen present either a acton or (peetaton may fairly be admitted. Probably it would not be esti mating the multitude at too high a rate if we assumed that it numbered a many aa between 17,000 and 20,000, aad, if to, thoee by whose exertions it wa brought together bar cans to congratulate themselves on their tueoea.
