      been from t&is consideration , we could havo looked with pleasure and delight upon the soveral implements of husbandry , which were spleudid specimens of inTtntion ; but as in each ' wo saw , under existing circumstances , an « nemy to tho humau family , our affection was furn » d into lo&tliing , and wo looked with disgust upon that which know not what oppression was , while its exercise aud application was calculated to make mankind tributary to 'its influence .

      again . The beet spooche 3 of the oTening were those of the ReT . Dr . Hook , Hon . Mr . Laacelles , Sir J . Johnstone , aud Mr . William Beckett ; bnt evori theso wert altogother doroid of information . Indocdj we had no ri ^ bt to expect it from Dr . Hook and Mr . Beckett , not b « ing agriculturists , while at the same tima they wer « confawedly the most successful speakers of the aTening . "With the ReT . Dr . we ould haTe gone heart and hand , had we been prepared to receiTe as truth his assertion , or rather his anticipation , that ths application of science to

      agriculture would shorten th « . hours of labour , and extend the hours for reoeiifcjg moral , religious , and useful knowlege ^—for « njojlJMDt and relaxation . No , no ! While one man ' s pmputfj ^ reprosents another man ' s labour , property ever must and over will subjugate labour to the influenco of property . The R » t . Gentlwnan has a most benign countenance , melodious Toice , with an eye denoting powerful couceptiott—Attributes which in OTery way rendor him wortay of being ranked among tho Tirtuous Chartists , and over a meeting of . whom , from , the tenour of his 8 poech , we hope shortly to see him presiding .

      We-hart now given the sunshmo of tho day , « ind must come to tlio gloom which was destined to fall upon the cheering prospect . Thero wero two men present whose appearance seemed to be tho signal of war , contention , ; disapprobation , and strife—Baincs and Hold forth were there , the Mayor , andtho Member for Leeds . Tho one with the gold chain round hi 3 neck , reminded us of the cocked hat on tho barefooted man ; while tho lavender glovo on tho hand of Esau reminded us , and cautioned us , that the hand and Toice did not always play in tuno ; and from the miserable exhibition that the Mayor and the Member made , Wo were strikingly reminded of the truth of the adage— " the higher a monkey elimbs tho more he shews hw — . " We

      Like consistency in all classes of politicians , and with the words of Mr . Holdforth , when Chairman of the AntirCom Law meeting at Leeds , still frosh in our recollections , we anticipated that his honest consistency would haTe subjected him to respectable dissent ; but we mourn to learn that his apostacy entailed upon-him the-ridicule and the reeling of all . It Is impossible to discuss the question , of domestic agriculture without introducing a consideration of the Corn Laws , and thus tha apostatebespako his licence to sit with gentlemen . " So blended , " said ho , " aro the two great interests , that one cannot suffor without the other ; aud any injury done to one must bofult by the other . It is the int « rost of each to support each . " With this declaration let us contrast hiflsontimnntans

      -expressed at a Corn Law Meeting held in Leeds on on the 15 th of January hist , and OTer which his Worship presided . " I tell the working men , " said he , * that upon their own strength they must depend t « grapple with the power of the landlords . " Again says the "Worshipful" the Mayor , " I may say again that the great interest that will be attacked by a repeal of th « Corn Laws will be the agricultural interseL" Now will the Worshipful ^ moral-force , scientific agriculturist tell us what he means by tho strongth of the people , and by an attack upon that interest which ht says must be the hand-maid of manufactures ! This inconsistency , coupled with the whole of his foolish rhodomontade , produced irresistible peals of laughter , amid which his Worship sunk under the ponderous weight of his rnaBsiT * collar , and set to rise no more .

      We thought we had seen the worst that Fate had st « r « d for u «; but , alas 1 we were deoeiTed , for worse remained behind . On tho left of tho Mayor sat th » part proprietor of Chat Moss , from whence , he t » ld vs , aroBshis qualification to be present , his object being , ax an agriculturist , io learn tho method of making fw * blades of grass grow whero ono had grown befere . : If there is on « want more striking than another it is tht want of tact ; a knowledge of when our presence is acceptable , and when wo may bs teniidsred as intruders . No man is disreputable

      in that situation « f life in which it has pleased God . to call him ; but when he attempts to soar above bis natural limits , ht finds , when too late , that Natui *^ has made th « pinions only for a certain ele-Tation ., and haTing outstepped her decree , the piuiona fail and . the Tictim falls to the ground . So it was wilh Edward Barnes , Esq ., M . P . for teeda . He rose ia a . mist of hiflses , partially dispersed by cheers , wbick should haTe been a warning in his flight ; bnt , - ¦ •" Apjfcen the judgment ' s weak . The Drejudicejs strong , "

      and It was tho / ate . 0 / our once popular reprosentatiTeto find Aat as tfce ^ isses and groans multiplied the partial cheers diesj ^ aAe ^ , and his Tain endcar-Tourto hobble through a statistical account of the proceeds of Chat Moss . was . net by an Irresistible volley of general indignation ^ -which we must say wa 3 directed against him personally rather thaii for any deyiation from- . the" subject . Tlic scene was frightful in the extreme . The harmony , ivhicli was before unbroken , was upset by tlic -untimely a . 'id obtrn .-iTe pre .-cr . ee of oue . indivi l . * al .
