eaHing it fairttk , and in the next because thoae who ought 16 excite it , feave exhibited too little sympathy fov the wants and wishes of the people . * The word f loyalty' must here be understood in its highest sensp , not in the narrow and contracted meaning which gave rise to the saying , * stick by the Crown though it hang on a bush /
Its true meaning is devotion of heart and soul , sincerity of purpose , and earnest resolution for the promotion of high objects ; attachment , gratitude , and reverence to noble beings , to those who seek through good and evil report the welfare of their species . To be attached or devoted to mere abstract station or rank , is either pitiable folly or disgusting sycophancy . Such loyalty could neither excite the approbation of the philosopher , nor the enthusiasm of the poet .
There is a gushing flood of loyalty even now pouring forth from one end of England to the other . It is you , Lord Durham , who are the object of that loyalty . You have won it by your own nobleness of spirit , by your own expressed high purposes . You have bound the working men of England in a bond which may not bp broken . You occupy the proudest pedestal on which
a human being can stand . A whole nation is your supporter . Kings and conquerors have alike failed , for they sougat the gratification of their own ambition alojie . You cannot fail , for your ambition is to work the welfare of your fellows . Your triumph will be the downfal of evil principles of goveminent , and the establishment of the empire of reason . You have been long st
doubted , you hs ^ ve been rongly tried , and in the very hour of our need you are not found wanting . You are the Minister of the people ' s choice , and to your hand will it be given to perfect the work of freedom , to gain a final victory in the struggle which began in the reign of John , and has been gallantly fought , with varying success , up to the present hour . I remain , my Lord , your conscientious approver ,
Nov . 24 , 1834 . Junius Redivivus .

Tylney Hall . By Thomas Hood . We pity people who only praise Hood for punning . In the celebrity which he has gained in that way , it may be said of him , as it was of Howard , that he has taken an unfrequented path to fame . Unfrequented , that is , by those who ever arrive at fame . Punsters are plenty as blackberries ; but Hood stands alone in our literary annals for having by such means built up a reputation , a great and merited one . In him punning has merely been a peculiar manifestation of extraordinary mental power .
