FRANCE ... ... .... ' OH WedMEdW M . Denagrouze proposed an amendment to the ministerial b . I acting the primary instructors , proposing to pUcetherinvr . de > the care of the academy rectors . Th « amendaen . -was rejected , as also one by M . Nettement . substitutingfor academy rectors the committees of arrondissement . - . M . de Montiguy then moved his amendment , to the " effect that appointment of primary teachers sho uld be left to the communal councils , theprefet preserving lhft right to dismiss . He ada > . d a clause fixing the duration of the U * to six month * . M . Mole supported Jvl . de Montigny s amendment . 7 "Other orators followed , after which the first atticle of tae bill , as amended by M . de Montigny , was adopted .
The bUl presented the previous day by the minister of justice , for increasing the pay of non-commissioned officers by 20 c . per day , was referred by tin-Assembly to the committee on the budget . In the course of the sitting flf this day , however , emthr motion of M . de Maraay , who , being struck with the political import & ace of the bill , thought that it should be examined fcy a special committee , the Assembly came back on its decisioa * nd referred it to the bureaus . ' ¦ Another amendment , by M . Salmon , was carried also , by which the prefet , before cashiering a teacher , must take the advice of the committee d'arrondissement However , as the ' Debats * truly says , the prefet will not be obliged to follow the
adwee given . On Thursday evening , the 5 th clause of the Schoolmasters' Bill was proposed as follows : — No teacher when distaissed can open a private school in the commune in which he had exercised the ( unctions from which he had been removed . ' The wording of this article excited a great uproar amongst the Mountain , and the most energetic ep ithets were applied to M . Beugrest , who , in ihe same of the Committee , proposed to add the words ' nor in the adjoining commune . ' The article was voted—ayes , 338 ; noes . 255 ; majority tor the clause , 83 . Paths , Friday .-TJhs day the hill for placing the primary instructors under the despotic control Of the government precepts was finally adopted , the numbers being for the bill 335 ? against 223 ; majority for the bill 162 .
The following is from the « Patne ' : — « We learn with the most lively satisfaction that the government has just decided , in a Council of Ministers , that it will immediately send an expedition to L * Plata . It was positively stated at the Aasemiily that the squadron would be composed of one or two fri gates and several small steamers . The expedimn will be placed under the command of Admiral Dubourdieu , who will unite to the command fuU diplomatic powers . The effectire strength of the troops to be sent , will be 2 , 000 men , under the immediate command of Colonel LannesdeMortebello Of the 7 « h chasseurs .
4 La Prvsse' contradicts the statement twice re . pea'ed Of * La Republic , ' that the celebrated Madame Genrge Sand has been ordered by the police to quit Paris . It expresses its convictions that if such a fact occurred , Madame George Sand would not fail to refuse obedience to so arbitrary a measure . « The' Presse , ' in its number of this d » y , * says the ' Moniteur , — ' Publishes an article entitled « Inconsistpnciey , ' in which it copies the entire article of the' Reforme' of the 2 d December , for which the editor of the lat * er was sentenced , t ^ o days ago , by the jury , to fine and imprisonment . The ' Presse' ha-ting p rin « ed the article apart from the repoit of the trial of the ' R-itirmp / inserted in its number of yesterday , the Attorney of the Republic ordered the ' Presse' of this day to he seized in its office and at the Post-office . '
' The ' Presse , ' says its editor , — « During the fifteen years it has existed was never the object of any seizure . To-day it was seized by order of the Attorney-General Barnche , who no doubt is anxious to summon again be ' ore him M . Emile de Girardin . Why was our nnmbpr seiz-d ? We did not even take the trouble of inquiring , for we are as certain of our princip les as we are of our intentions . The ' Presse ' alreadv suffered two
persecutions , one in June , 1847 , and the other in June , 1848 . Their result is known . Eight months after the editor of the ' Presse' was summoned to . the bar of the Chamber of Peers , in June , 1847 , M . Heberr , Keeper of the Seals , was obliged , on the 24 th of February , to fly in all haste and seek refuge in a foreign country . Seven months after the 'Presse' was suspended , in June , 1843 , General Cavaignac was condemned by the ballot of the 10 ih of December . '
'This evening , ' adds the ' Presse /—* At this Passage of ihe Opera , the Five per Cents ., which had closed at „ 94 f . 2 oc . fell forty-five centimes on ihe report of the seizure of the' Presse / This measure , which nobody could account for , was generally regarded as a political event . ' ft is announce : ! that the elections to replace the representatives convicted before the Hi gh Court of Justice at Versailles are to take place ok the 3 d of January . M . Vraiee Durrieu , editor of the ' Temps , ' was condemned by default by the Court of A ^ z- ; of Paris on Wednesday to imprisonment for two years , and to pay a fine of 5 , 000 f ., for having published a letter addressed by M . Vauthier from Versailles to the electors of the Cher .
Ramon de la Sagra , an eminent writer on politi . al economy , and who has lately attracted attention in France by a work on the anarchy of the epoch , was sometime ago expelled from the French territory . Thinking that the causes of this measure had passe ; : away , he set out a few days ago for Paris , hut * ras . stopped in Bayonne , and , in pursuance of a telegraphic despatch , conducted aeaiu to the Spanish frontier . The cold is extremely severe in the south of France . For many years / says the Semaphore ' — 'We do not remember a more rigorous winter . The tflermomefer constantly ranges several degrees below the freez i ng point . At sea the north wind
blows with great violence and prevents the arrival at Marseilles ef . a number of vessels from the colonies . We have been informed that several had been obliged to put into the ports of Spain . Others are probably detained in the Straits . It is to he hoprd that the first easterly wind will enable them to reach their destination . We ar »> happy to announce that , notwithstanding the inclement weather which has prevailed in the Mediterranean , oar maritime correspondence records no oilier wreck than that of the Sollecito , an Austrian bri g , on the coast oi Sardinia , Oar intelli gence , moreover , indicates
that countries generally less exposed than ours to the inclemency of-the winter are cruelly tried this year . Letters from Italy received by flic " kst packet men'ion that the country round Rome is entirely cove-ed with snow . Our poor soldiers quartered si Tivoli and Civira Vecchia suffer sadly from the rigorous cold . ' Some cariosity has Jieen excited b y the statement that a depaty of the Mountain , named Pradie , has this day laid on the table of the Assembly a proposition , requesting the Assembly to adopt " a measure of legal resistance , in the event of any eoup d ' etat being attempted by the President of the Republic .
Paris , Mokdax Evbnirs . —The correspondent of the ' Morning Chronicle' writes under the above date as follows - —The 'Rjabrme' did not appear yesterday , nor has it done so io-day The mystery is explained in a letter addrecsed b y the editor to some of the newspapers . * A 4 eleven o ' clock oh Satnrdaj night , when ihe pape ? was in fype and ready to go to press , a huissier eaters the printingoffice and summons ihe printer Iiefere the tribunals ! for printing the * Reforme' at a tiros when the cau- i iion-aoney of the psper was not complete .

Yesterday morning the Reforme' did not appear . We have received the following leiter on this subject from the x Reforme ' office : — ' Last ni g h » at eleven o ' clock , our prin'erearae to inform us that he had received a summons from the Parquet , and that ,
consfquently , it was impossible for him to print our journal . The composition was terminated , hut , notwithstanding the Reforme' could not appear this morning , nor will it doso tc-morrow . The moment chosen by the government to , shackle our publication was " skilfully chosen ; it was very , well known that f ' oine men sought at this moment to substitute an intrigue for the traditional policy of the 'Reforme ; * that on Sunday the ministfcrial offices were dosed , and that it would he impossible for us to regularise our position towards the finance ; there was . therefore , a certainty of stopping for one or two days a journal which the royalists pursue with implacable animosity . However this may be , we shall defeat their calculations , and we hope that the patriotism ef Our subscribers will not fail us on this
occasion ; to seizures may succeed measures of intimidation ; we shall not stop before the exigencies of the treasury any more than we have yielded to the rigour of condemnations . ' ..... Tuksdav . —The discussion of ; the organic laws on pnblic instruction , commenced yesterday , when M . Barthelemy St . Hilaire , spoke . his opposition to the bit ' . His speech occupied the entire sitting . Wednesday . —Yesterday M . Barthelemy St . Hilaire resumed and concluded his speech . The Bishop of Larigas followed in support of the bill . Victor Hugo followed , and , according to the ' Times , ' made a violent speech in opposition to the bill ; and its delivery , which was applauded
with frenzy by the Mountain , was accompanied by equally strong gesticulations . His attack ' on the clergy , and on those whom he accused of wishing to establish the Inquisition , was received with applause 1 y the Left , and with indignation by the Right . Much tumult prevailed during the latter part of his speech , and the speaker was more than once reminded by the President that he was losing sight of the main object of discussion , and was only indulging in bitter personalities , and most insulting expressions . His final announcement and vote against the bill was accompanied b y great violence of gestures , and was applaudfd loudly by the Mountain . The adjournment of the debate took place at a quarter to seven o ' clock .
GERMANY . The * Cologne Gazette * of the 10 th inst . contains a telegraphic message from Berlin , dated Wednesday at noon , stating that the royal message had j . usi been delivered to the Chambers . The message expresses the hop » . that the revision of the constitution will be conclndi d , and that the Upper Chamber will be definitely constituted during the presen session , in order that the oath to the constitution may be taken by bis Majesty . - A memorial was also presented to the Chambers containing the . Iterations which the ministry propose to make in the constitution . A peerage is proposed fortheU pper Chamber , but the Second Chamber is fo possess the initiative in all money matters , as in England .
BERLIN , Jan . 12 . — The cold has set in with intense severity . We have had the thermometer down to fourteen Reaumur for the last two days in sheltered places , and as low as seventeen to eighteen in open spots exposed to the sharp east wind . The land is , however , well covered in all parts by a thick coating of snow . The accumulation of ice upon the Vistula , Oder . Warthe , and other rivers , leads to apprehensions of serious misfortunes when the weather breaks .
The discussions in the fractions of the Chambers of Friday and Saturday on the Royal message have been very stormy , and it is now pretty certain that some of the propositions will be rejected ; that of a creation of hereditary members of the Upper House is the most strongly opposed , and unites most parties against it a large majority in the negative is felly expected ; A Cabinet Council was held on Saturday , and it is understood tl-at the Ministry willstand or fall b y the articles . If they are rejected it will resign , and ii is most probable the resignations will he accepted .
ITALY . The « Venice Gazette , ' of the 2 nd , slates that a workman in that city has been sentenced to ten months' imprisonment by the military tribunal , fohaving in his possession a concealed musket and some fulminating powder . Letters from Leghorn , of the 29 th ult ., state that more persons were arrested on the preceding evening far singing sediiinus songs in the streets . Piedmojjt : —Letters from Turin of the 9 th , state that the Piedmontese Chamber of Deputies , after a warm debate , had voted the ratification of the treaty of peace concluded at Milan on he 6 th of August last , with the Austrian Government . Of 129 deputies vrho voted , 112 vot : d for ' ihe ratification , and 17 against ir .
HUNGARY AND AUSTRfA . The l Magyar Hirlap' ( of Pesth ) publishes in its official column a decree of ihe court-martial sitting in that town , dated Jan . 1 , which calls upon the following Hungarian leaders to appear before the court—Louis Kossuth , Meszarvrs Szemere , Perczel , Casimir Batthjanyi , Etienne Baithyanyi , Rameis , and others . A term of ninety days is assigned to them for the purpose . Letters from Kiagenfurt announce the serious ill . ness of M . Geor ; ey , late Hungarian General .
The ' Wiener Zeitung / is still , busily engaged in publishing the constitutions of the various " pro . vincesand Crownlands . It is stated that . the Provincial Diets are to be convoked in October , and that the Diet of the Austrian Empire is to meet in 1851 . A rumour is current at Vienna to the effect that the state of siege of the capital is to be raised in April or May . Troops are still being sent to Bohemia , and part of the army is collecting close to the frontier of Saxony . Prague arid The ' resirnstadt are filled with soldiers and general officers , and preparation on a large scale are making for a campaign . Pbesburgh , Dec . 30 . —A paragraph has
gone the round of the German papers , jiving the world to understand that the mother and children of Kossuth have , been set at liberty ; that upon leavine their prison at Pesth they came to Vienna in order to provide themselves with a passport to Turkey The only word if truth in this sto-y . isthat this noble old mother / with her three grandchildren , left their prison at Pesth , but it was to enter a new gaol at Presbnrg : and such a gaols When these bdplen bcioes were consi gned to the hospital of the Scblossberg , she cholera and tyhpus were both raging there , and « Death busiest from couch to
couch tended the sick . ' The cholera and typhus bare done their work , and death ' is not so busy now among the patients ; the grandmother and the three httle Kossnths are still there , thank God , all well . Yes thank God , and hot the Auslrians for that . The children of .

There is the widow of General Sstningsh ? there is the widow of General Damjamich , free indeed , bttli , to carry their sorrows and destitution whither they please . I believe that the following prayer . 'Composed by Damjanich the night before < tis execution , has not before been published .
On its-authenticity you may depend . There is a family resemblance about such compositions that makea them -commonly fall short of the interest which attaches to the awful hour which inspires them ; yet-= rarely has a more manly farewell been breathed to the world than that of Damjanich . He alludes in the , beginning to the agony of parting with his wife , who is young andbeautiful . ' f > EA * BR . o ? General Damjanico before his
Execution . 'Ruler of the Universe , to thee £ lift my supp lication . Thou hast strengthened me in the fearful hour offlarting ^ -strengthen me still , oh Father , that I may endure tire hard trial , the foul , dishonour ibbj death , strongly and like a man 1 Hear , oh Lord of infinite goodness and mercy ,, my longing , prayer !

Bl « s Arad 1 Bless poor disaster-sraitten Hungary I Thou hast known my heart , and no seep of mine has been hidden from thee . Judge rrie graciously according to the same , and grant me a merciful reception into thy kingdom beyond the grave . Amen . ' Will it be believed that these two helple & s women , Madame Damjanich and . Madame Leiningen , nfier
the execution of their husbands , were not only despoiled of all property in land , inherited in theiriown ri g ht , which is contrary to the . Hungarian law ,- but not even suffered to retain a fraction of : the personal property of their husbands ? . Nay , even their wardrobes were sacked , and their dresses and trinkets snatched from them . It does credit to ; the citizens of Arad that they would not bid for those articles of female appirel when put up to the public auction : for that they desened the blessing of ,, Damjanich . The dresses were knocked down , without civil
cotepetition , cheap to Austrian officers . ¦ ' ¦ Leiningen was an accomplished scholar as well as soldier , and had composed a history of the' war . ; This manuscript , secreted with jealous care by bis widow , who valued it more than her jewels ,, did not escape the narrow search to which her iffVcts were exposed , and was also torn from her possession . ' ' ¦ - > Hundreds of harrowing facts , which have never oozed into publicity , are current in the society of this city , from which they cannot ; escape even by the
post-office : no one who wished to remain at Presburg more than twenty four hours would have ihe imprudence to commit to a letter aught which could shame the government . As this will reach you by a private , hand , I am not restrained by the same scruples . There is a young-lady here ; the betrothed bride of Lopresti , one of the Hungarian nobjes who was degraded to the ranks . The last news she received from her future husband , who is in Italy , wai that he had received fifty blows with a cudgel by way of discipline , .
At Vienna on the last day of the year a soldier was condemned to run the gaunlet , His comrades turned out , as commanded , but when he ran through the lines not an arm was uplifted to strike him . I believe they thrash offenders in this way with their crossbelts . This was b y no means an uninterestms incidmt to close the first half of the 19 th century with ; and is . I understand , the first instance ever known of such a demonstration of manly dignity on the part of the common soldiers . Tbey disdain-d the function of executioner imposed upon them by officers less civil ' sed than themselves . This
unanimous and silent proieit on the part of the ; men against a barbarous mode of punishment , and re . jection of the base reliance Iaidon them to become instruments of torture , has something about it well wonhv of attention . The top of society in our daye must be taught by the bottom .
TURKEY AND RUSSIA . We have received letters from Constantinople , which state that many of the Hungarian refugees have embarked in English and Spanish steam-rs ' ; those who remain in the capital , are obliged-to state , in writing , that tbey will be ready to leave it on the 1 st of February . No satisfactory resolution has yet been adopted with respect to the principal Magyars . —Hamburgh Correspondent , Jan . 7 . The ' Wanderer' of Vienna states that the Hungarian General Kmety , who ha * embraced Islamisru , has been appointed Governor of ; the fortress of Sehumla .
We have the following from Belgrade : — ' Simieh has been named Minister of Justice . Since it has been understood that the Porte will finally make concessions to Russia on'the question of the refugees , a more Russian tone prevails here , and the Prince is said to have just signed a declaration to the effect that he will not allow young Servians educated abroad to be educated anywhere but in Russia . ' . Letters received in Paris from Constantinople of the 30 th D .-c . state that , the dispute between Russia and the Porte on the subject of the Hungarian refugees has been definitively settled . Some delay was occasioned in consequence of , objection ' s .. made
by the Baron de Sturmer , the Austrian ambassador , to the words ' of a part of the treaty ; but at length an alteration having been made , which wasaccepied by M , de Sturmer , ad referendum , M . de Titoff , the Russian ambassador , expressed his wish not to prolong any longer a situation ot doubt and uncertainty which weighed on the whole world . He accordingly paid the Grand Vizier an official visit , and at the period of the departure of the steamer the documents had been exchanged and the relations between the two countries restored . The French Ambassador immediately despatched a tteanur with the information for his government .

Dim , Disease , and Misekv , in SourirAMPro . v . — An inspector belonging to the Health of Towns ' Commission is now . at Southampton , inquiring into the sanitary condition of that town . He has been at tho Guidhall , morning and evening , for tho . last ten days , receiving evidence as to the state of drainage , supply of water , street nuisances , ventilation of dwellings , the efficiency of the local boards and acts of parliament , the intramural burial grounds , the funeral expenses of tho poor , the common lands , the public walks , & o . In the afternoon the inspector visits the various localities , requiring , ' sanitary regulations . The interest . these inquiries excite amongst the working classes is . verv . sreat . At
night . the Guildhall is crowded with working men , and the intelligence and eagerness with « hich they give evidence , show how sensible thcyarc of physical discomfort , and how susceptible thoy are of moral elevation . The inspector is accompanied in his visits to the localities b y the authorities of the town , numbers of tradesmen and gentlemen , newspaper reporters , and by men employed to measure tho size of rooms , windows , & c , altogether forming a body sometimes of fifty persons , who are guided by clergymen and medical men into the most obscure and filthy places . The facts collected by these investigations as to the misery , disease , and moral depravity engendered by unhealth y localities aro truly appalling , and cannot fail to impress on the
legislature the absolute necessity of abolishing every tax that interferes . with tho health of the population and deprives them of light and air . : ¦ A large number of most valuable statistical reports as to the sanitary and social state of Southampton and its inhabitants have been handed to the inspector by resident scientific and professional men . Tlio places mentioned in tho . report upon St . Michael ' s and Holyrood parishes are contiguous to tho beautiful Highstreet , in Southampton , formed of lofty houses and handsome shopsi St . Mary ' s parish is tho parish of which the Earl of Guildford is rector .. Tho inspector ' s report on tlib state of the town is- anticipated
with tho greatest interest by tho inhabitants j of Southampton , and-is expected to be both important ' and interesting . : There can be -little ' doubt but it will induce immediate steps to be taken for improving tho dwellings of the : poor , for introducing sanitavy regulations , by which the health and comfort of tho inhabitants may bo improved , and for removing those plague spots of : filth and wretchedness from whence ,- !!* Southampton as in other larger tovrns disease and death stalk forth at intervals to strike down . even . the strong , the temperate , and the wealthy . . ¦ •' ¦ ¦; . - .

STEPNEY MEETING .-Mr . CLARK AND Mb . KYDD . . V ' . ! ' 1 ¦' STOCBS EDITOR OF . TUB KORIBEftV S iB Si « —Your readers must have noticed that at the Stepney meeting , held On Monday , the tfjtb mat ., I undertook to prove the correctness and wisdom ot the resolution moved at the said feting by Mr . Campbell . Mr . Clark accepted of my challenge to do so . In the columns of the « Morning Chronicle and ' M-rninu Advertiser' Mr . Clark ' s , acceptance of my diallenge is published to the world j and as it friends . iiii . ii I .. ILL II ll riiP
has not , either by Mr . Clark or any of his , been contradicted or qualified , I feel bound , > n honour as a public man , to fulfil my pledge . I may state that I was in no way connected with the callingof the Stepney meeting ; that l attended the said meeting unsolicited ; that I am , personally , unknown to most of the parties who called the meeting together ; that the only part I took in the proceediius ' was with a view to restore order , when confusion was great ¦ that 1 will discuss the question at issue , on Us own merits , a (» irt from all party and sectional considerations ; and that so far as I am concerned I am of no pirty but ihe party of truth .
Mr . Alexander Campbell moved— ' Vhat as labour is the source . of all wealth , it evidently follows thai the prosperity ; and independence of Great Britain and her colonies will be most promoted by employ ing and protecting , in the greatest number , a healthy , industrious , and moral populaiion , whicli can be educated . and . comfortably maintained by their own industryVand , therefore , i : » the opinion of this meeting , it is the first and most important duty of the British Legislative and her Majesty ' * Government , to adopt such measures a * will bt-st secure employment to every , one ^ of the population , and procure for their labour an abundance of the necessaries and comforts of life . '
The-first part of the resolution— 'Labour is tho source of all wealth '—admiis of' dispute , as labour without land could not produce wealth—neither could land without labour . Sir John Jervis . her Majesty ' s Attorney-General , on the trial of Sharp and Fusseli , ; assured the Court , that labour was not the source of all wealth ; But , knowing as I do , that so omnipotent is labour , that it is considered by political economists to be the source . of all ' wealth , and . that John"Locke and the hig hest ; authorities of past ages have so written of labour , I accept ot their definition and phraseology , in preference to the doctrines and definition of even ao high an authority as Sir John Jervisi ' Labour is the exertion " of power for the production of utility , ' and , therefore , must have been the first price paid for the enjoy .
went . and possession "Of p roperly ; for without an exercise of power for the production of utility , nothing useful could exist—no productions could be exchanged , and ,-therefore , no commerce could be known among men . 'Hitherto , in this country , the productions of wealth ' ' nave bsen ample , but the regulations afftcling the exchange and ; destribution ot tic , property * produced have been inefficient . ; '; the labourers havetoiled , but Lave not possessed in suf . ficient quantities the product of their labour . Yet ih ^ y are riget' in : unceasingly proclaiming 'That labour is . ' the source of all weaHh , ' If Mr . Clark doubts the cpmctnfcss of the proposition , I will feel obliged to him for some solid reasons on ihe opposite side , tending to prove . ' That labour is not the source of all health . '
The resolution continues , ' It evidently follows that the prosperity " and independpnee ' . of . 'Great Britain , and her colonies , can be most promoted by employing and protecting , in the greatest number , a healthy , industrious , and moral population , which can be > educateri and comfortably maintained by their own industry . ' ,.- ' If labour be the source of all wealth , it clearly follows that the prosperity and independence of a nation must be best promoted by protecting and employing the producers of wealth . It is lamentable to know that so plain a statement of the interests of mankind should give rise to cavil or doubt . One of ihe chief causes-of the revolutions of all nations has been a negtect of that plain , and , to my Blind , unmistakealile ' proposition . ' . A
papulation , generally employed , would not-, be subject'to riots or disturbances of any kind , provided ihey had a fair share of the Iruits of their own industry . In England , vast numbers of our population live in idleness and luxury , vast numbers in idleness and vagrancj ; many able and willing to work , ate neither half employed nor half fed , others are wholly unemployed . And in a country so situated , what can be more necessary than for the attention of government to be directed to the true sources o ' national prosperity . And , if the protecting and employing the producers of wealth be not ihe trup causes of national prosperity , Mr . Clarke will oblige me by stating bis reasons in favour of nonprotecting and non-employing the producing classes , as related to a nation ' s true interest . ' ! . - . "
The last part of the resolution states , the first and most important duly ' of government to be the adoption of such measures as will best secure the emp ' oyment , and provide an abundance of the neces sa ies of life to the producers . The last is by far the most import nt part of the resolution ; and I oa : l the attention of Mr . Clark to the following dti-temenc of the-connexion-between society aid tovemment , quoted from the writings of Thomas Paine : — Society . in every state is a blessing , but government in its best state , is but a necessary evil—in its worst state an intolerable one jfijtf wheM-We ' Sllftw , « V SU'G OSpoSOd to the same miseries by a government , which we might expect in
a country inthout a government , ourcalnmify is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which tve suffer . ' Government , like dress , is the badge of lost innocence ; the palaces of kings aro based on the bowers of paradise . JPor were the impulses of conscience clear , uniform and irresistibly obeyed , man would need ' no other lawgiver ; but that not beiny'the case , lie finds it necessary to surrender up a part ' of his ; property to ' furnish means for the protection of the rest ; and this ho is induced to do by the same ' prudence which , in every other case ; advises him , out of two-evils ; to choose the best . Wherefore , security being the true design and'end of government , it unanswerably follows that whatever form , there appears most likely to tusure it to ; as with the least expense and greatest benefit , is preferable to all others . ' '
The labourers . of . England ' " have yielded up patt of their property , but have not received protection and securityfor what they rcta ' nr tl . It is this increased . protection which is guaranteed in the declaration of American Independence , and is also the ' strict -responsibility' alluded te in the preamble of the People ' s Charier . If government be in no way to interfere for the protection of the producer of wealth , and the regulation of the productions o ! wealth , far what does government ' exist' ? - . The non-interference doctrine—so popular among the moriied and governing classes—is a giving up of the very principle on which authority demands allegiance , and is . a teaching which I hope will . , never become , popular among the trades of the metropolis . For my part , - ' ! think with Hume , that'A constituuon is only so far good as it provides a remedy
against mal-adtninistrtition . ' And if the English gc vernment can do nothing towards securing employment , and p roviding ; an abundance of the necessaries of life for the producers of . wealth , I wish we had an end of the farce of governing altogether . If it be not the first ' and most important duty of the Bru tish legislature and her Majesty ' s'government , to adopt such measures as will best secure employment to every one of the population , and provide for their labour an abundance of the necessaries and comforts of life , will Mr . Clatk inform us , what , in his judgment , is the firs . t and most important duty of the British legislature and her Majesty ' s government ? If it lie not the duty . of government to protect the producers of wealth and regulate ' the . productions of labour , for what does government exist ? Samuel M . Kydd .
