Messrs Palmer and TtoebtjcR were ' £ reete& by an assembly of seven hundred of their constituents , with the addition of five hundred ladies , Who are not
theirs trt > r anybody ' s constituents ; but whose presence does not appear to have been regarded as an intrusion . At Bristol , > their introduction would not have been civil to Lord John , after the manner in which he met the proposition for allowing them access to a gallery in the new House of Commons . Aristocracy does not desire women to think and be instructed , any more than it did
desire that burgesses and operatives should think and be instructed . It would have them hanging , like golden fruit , on the ' beautiful branch * at the top of the tree , of which Mr . Moore speaks ; in pretty and amiable dependence , with nothing to do but tb fid ! to the ground when beautiful branch shall shake them
6 tf . Whether women be yet wise enough to prefer admission to the sfeeneg in which men exert their highest mental powers , for the objects that most deeply interest their hearts , to being bowed away from the entrance with a smirk and a compliment , it is for thetnselces to show . The opportunity is not often afforded them , £ nd tire believe there has been little apparent backwardness but
Whit is rather to be ascribed to other influences than to the free dictates of their own intelligence . 'The Lords trere dealt with in a much more straightforward aod summary way on this occasion . Mr . Roebuck spoke with his usilal plainness and fervour , and repeated his proposition for nullifying the second chamber by reducing its veto on a bill that ha $ pateed the Commons to a single exercise ; so that if , after "h&Kug beeil thrown out by them it should again be adopted by th £ ( Jotnmons , it becomes law without their assent . This is a
VfefV efficient mode of reform . It simply gives legalized existence tp th&t pliability for which Lord Ebrington praised the Peers , and dectees the thne at which they shall bring it into exercise . There cail be no great harm to them in that yielding virtue , which we are toM they are sure to manifest , being manifested at the end of < me '* esskm rather than of ten . Mr . Hume declared himself for
K ^ ri ^ f Ij&rds , and Commons , making the Lords responsible , t . e ., we ' mkpplaM , ' elective- This notion must give way as the subject fe ttioirW Uliiroug | il y discussed .
