    Palmerston And His Opponents

    PALMERSTON AND HIS OPPONENTS

    11 , Bussell-place , December 2 , 1851 . Sir , —You can appreciate my earnestness if I venture again to trouble you on an old subject . You know something of my opinions of Lord Palmerston , as a friend of freedom here and elsewhere . Mark ¦ who are his enemies now!—Baron Brunnow , the Carlton Club , Lord Grey , and the Times . You have complained that he has come short in action ; they will not allow him to speak his own -words , or even think his own thoughts ( see the Daily News of this day ) . Surely it is quite time that we made up our minds to sustain , rather than disconcert and baffle , him in his struggles with the despots . I am , yours obediently , B . J .

    [ We may add the following anecdote for the edification of B . J . Early in the week Lord Palmerston and the Baron Brunnow were observed in Brookstreet , walking , engaged in close and lively conversation—the " most liberal of all Ministers" sustaining the arm of the envoy of Nicholas . A groom with a led horse followed . On reaching Mivart ' s Hotel , the pair stopped a moment on the steps , and then Brunnow disappeared behind the hotel doors , after an affectionate leave-taking , and the " noble and judicious bottle-holder " mounted his horse and rode towards the park . So much for the entente cordiale of hostility 1 .

    DEFENCE OF THE FREEHOLD LAND MOVEMENT . Minster , Thanet , December 2 , 1851 . Sni , —Hitherto we have considered you more consistent than most of your Democratic contemporaries ; but yo ur remarks in " News of the Week , " respecting Freehold-Land Societies , appear to us inconsistent in a journal advocating the cause of cooperation . You object to this cooperation for buying land . —The greatest monopoly in existence . One would have supposed you a warm advocate ; you say " It is not precisely the best investment for the working classes . " As a Leader of the working to

    classes I think it would be but simple justice enlig hten us to " precisely the best , " if this is not . You observe that buying a vote is almost as bad as selling one . Is the possessing of a house or land a bad thing for the working man ? and the time is has a vote attached to it , it cannot be bad for a working man to have one . As to its " admitting the unrea-BonablcncsH of the qualification , and that property is the proper standard for fitness , " I cannot conceive that all who possess landmust necessarily be advocates of " Brick qualification instead of brain . " The men who are the warmest advocates of the Freehold movement , I think a suflicient answer to Biicft" an assertion . The movement does admit of being the means of getting a better interest for the working man ' s earnings than any other , and by means of

    " bricks " of getting a vote forthe " brains" : we shall feel grateful by your allowing us a better and quicker mode . Empty talk will not gain universal suffrage . Shouting for the charter over a pot and pipe will never obtain it , nor pikes and stilettoes get the ballot Such investments will not obtain lor tho working classes their duo share in tho national councils ; but tho inventing in a Freehold-Land Society will . Till you , tho Times , and other objectors to this movement can hIiow us a better " move , " it would be well to cease ineffective cavilling . Of Windbaga , " Star" arguments , and Hernngtnuls « have had enough . If you asp ire to the " leadership of tho working cIhhhcjn , leud us aright . Yours , respectfully , A Wohkino Man .

    THE QUEEN VK ItSUS ROWLAND AND OTHERS . Queen ' s l ' rluon , November lift , 1 W > I . Sir —I have just sent the following correction to tho editor of the Time * •— " ttir , -Your report of

    the sentence passed by the Queen ' s Bench yesterday in this case is incorrect in the material matter which . I here quote : —* Mr . Parry made an application that the Court would order that the defendants should not be set to hard labour . Lord Campbell declined to make any such , order . That was a matter for the justices . '" Now , I do not state that what I have quoted was not said , but I -say that this important matter did not end there . I being in Court , pointed out to the Court the two acts " for the better ordering of prisons" ( 2 nd and 3 rd Vic , cap . 56 , and 3 rd and 4 th Vic , cap . 25 ) , which directly contradict the Lord Chief Justice ; for they say that misdemeanants not sentenced to hard tabour shall be divided into first and second divisions , but that none shall be sent to the first division , except by order of the Court or judge . You will thus perceive that there are three degrees in the sentence which have nothing to do with " the justices" ; on the one hand , the Court or judge may make the sort of imprisonment more severe , and on the other , less . This power appertaining to the Court or judge applies only to the gaols other than or " except the Queen ' s Bench and Fleet Prisons , and the General Penitentiary at Millbank . " Mr . Justice Patteson at first said he thought the acts applied to the Queen ' s Prison , and not to the County Prisons , and on that erroneous supposition this Court has been sentencing to the " first division of misdemeanants in the Queen's Prison " for the last six years , without any act for thai purpose . On the error being pointed out , Mr . Justice Patteson pleasantly dubbed me , " Amicus Curiae . " By the acts I have mentioned the first division of misdemeanants are allowed to be with the debtors . This , therefore , is to be the situation of the above parties , and not to be put to hard labour or not , at the discretion of ' the justices . " I trouble you with this in case otherwise the truth might not be generally known ; and am , Sir , your obedient servant , "W . Cobbett .
