      REPRESENTATIVE - REFORM ; •;; A Report , just issued by the Council of the National Reform Association to its members , gives / an outline of . its past progress , and of the measures proposed to , be adopted this year for the accomplishment ? of ; , its objects . In both respects , the document is exceedingl y satisfactory . The moderate ; but determined

      tone , in -which the Council state the motives by waich they are influenced , and the course intended ; to 0 be pursued , ' is the certain precursor of success .- ; A ' momentary : and highwrought excitement may occasionall y lead to sweeping and sudden ; changes ; but theyi ; aro generally aa transient in duration , as startling iu tlipir origin . There is something in tha calm , measured , and business-like manner in which the Council estimate the nature'bf the

      task they have undertaken , ' and shape out tho agencies by ' whichit is . to be efiected , that cannot fail to impress both friends audoppo nents with a conviction of ultimate / and not distant success . - The former must be animated by that feeling of ; conficlence which , pervades an anny under good generalship ; the latterremeuibering that such energyj-determinatiou , and organisation , have always been successful in former agitations—must feel proportionately dispirited , and inclined to make , terms

      in good time . ^ Jhanges ' ; eftected . by ! such means are certain to be lasting , in their d >( ralion and character , i They spring from , and rest upon , a widel y diflused ' public opinion , ; against which class efforts and class influence can . be , of no avail . . Reaction—if it takes place ; . a ^ t ^ aU—must carry ' with it the masses ;; and we believe that a . peoplej once enlightened , and : in possession of political arid social liberty , are not likel y to retrograde , or willingly submit to the renewal of class domination .

      . The Council state that , in commencing the movement , ihey did not " underrate on the one hand , the sense of political justice which abides in the middle classes—nor inistake , on the other , tlie'feelings of ; dissatisfaction / with theprc ' sent state of things , which has prevailed so long in the . ranks of the' industrious 'population . " In one year , it was only ¦ possible for them to put theinterrpgatory to the nation : ' . ' « 'Is the' proposal of Pailiainentary Reform premature ? " The ; TepUesjto , ' , that , question are : far more enthusiastic and general than they anticipated . They ' have encountered &wer difficulties . than Ih ^ y ' calculafe ^ upon , and have found all the advantages at hand on which they reasonably relied , during , the agitation ^ i the past yeai-. . " TvTehad , " . saythe Gouncil '

      ¦;—. Friends read y everywhere to receive us , and we had resolved , by . our demeanour , not to invite ; hostilities ; Our allies ami our advocates were , the whole of those who were retained mtuouttheelectoral . piae , and all the just and enlightened of those who , already admitted to the chief function of citizenship , were disinclined to withessthe continuanccof a degradation most unjustifiably imposed on several millions : of their fellow countrymen . The public opinion -which we . sought ; was ;; therefore , 'in existence though , as regarded the middle class , in a greatineasuro latent : and because , not manifested by that class , was irisulted by placemen and disbelieyea in by ministers and tiiat which we now claim to have aceomplisliud is , ' to havo ^ SSS ^ ° !^ ? If—diately

      In the next sentence , ; one oxpresssidn occurs which : shows thattheiQbtracil by nomeans regard ' ; the measure of Representative Reform , advocated by : the Association , as a [ final one . All they claim for it is that it is- " the only attainable measureof reform to be demanded for the present j ^^ itio ; great object ; has been to enlist the sympathies of theelectoral classes in its behalf , and = to ; impress ; them with the belief that it is incumbent upon them to strive

      for timely changes , in order to ; ayert We ' mischief which always springs from the " truthful utterance of the . memorable words '' Too Late . " . The Council announce that they have succeeded in their objects ; and they refer with pleasure ^ to " the union for cooperative action among different sections ofsociety , ' ' upon the basis they professed , and which has been realised "in the liberal and active concession which animates one , and the generous moderation . ndiy actuating the ather [ working ! class . " ' ¦¦ •'¦• ; ¦ ¦ : ' ¦ •'• ¦'¦ ¦ -

      : The path has , so far , been cleared of the obstacles arising from the disunion of the parties . desiring , representative ireform . - Instead of opposing ,- ; or weakenipg each other ' s efforts , they are / prepared ;^) ' struggle together for the attainment j Ofthd Mmited and modified extension of , 'tiiQ Suffrage , audother measures embodied in Ifc Hume ' s motion . ¦ .

Is it a singi e room in a sixpair attic ; , or one of the , pyramidical mansions at Prince Albert ' s-gate ? -Is it a hut or a mansion , orwhere is the line between the : two—which divides between houses , and hovels , or , lodgings ?; Mr . Hume once defined a householder tobe a ratepayer ; but in the great majority of town ' s and rural'districts , ' persons occupying ; less , than five , pounds worth per nnnum of houses or lands are ' not rated , an'dby this definition would he placed on the terms of a five pound franchise .- - . . ...-.. ' , ; ' ' '

      . On the other hand , lie remarks : — i ; , "_; Universal Suffrage is definite . It leaves little room for cavil or doubt . If the parocbiiil registrar has . discharged his duty ; a youth ' has merely to live on with the certainty of liecoming quulified . \ The Chatter contains , indeed , a moral i | iialificatioii—it denudes those persons who may ¦ be convicted of crime . That form bf e ' xpr ' p&sipn'is very gekeral , ftnd . might be interpreted to include many ipeysons . The jaw might , recognise ; as . ci'imcs trarisaclious . which are not at present within its grasp . Still , " this system is . more explicit than any other project , and has received some support on that account alone , apart from all other considerations ; '' . ' -.. .--.:..,...,, - .. . . ¦ . -

      Wo submit to the leaders of the middle class movement , that the " re-consideration of this great question ought to . form . au important portion -of the programme for ; the National Conference , proposed . to be held next March in London . As they were guided in the adoption of the less extended S uffrage , solely b y reasons of bxpediehcy , ' ' . and the belief that the middle classes were not prepared to go with them the whole length of Universal Suffrage—we think that these indications of- a more advanced

      It is ' nbwuriderstqod that Thursday , the 31 st iust , is fixed for ' tho commencement ' of the Session , : and , as usual , about this season , speculati 6 n .-is rifein the shape of rumours , as to what ministers intend to propose / " The wish '* isdoubtles ^ 'iri ^ mariypeases , ^ '' farther ; to the thought , " anjiitie Administration are credited with " good , intentions , " of which they have never dreame d ;; - ' ? ' ' Sijfchi'we very much fear , is the rumour that ascribes to them the intention to abolish

      the . Window Duty . The present Government have so firmly opposed ; Lord Duncats' -s successive motions for the abrogation of this most oppressive , iniquitous , and- mischievous -tax , that iLthey really entertain the idea , it is one of the most d ^ cidech proofs of the power of public opinion . On the last occasion the noble lord ,-the member , for Bath j-moved his usual motion , ' he " accompanied it with a ; detailed

      estimate " of reductions in other quarters , by which the Exchequer would be placed ;; in as good a position ; to meet the demands . upon it as before . This year , however , ; we should think there need be rid difficulty about the matter . . The blockade of the African coast for the suppression of the SlaveTrade ,, is now seen to be / so monstrous , indefensible , and' utterly ; useless a waste of money , that neither the ' saints nor Lord

      Palmerston will - be able longer to prevail upon Parl . iannent to sanction it . The Times- estimates' the sum to be thereby saved at 500 , OPO / . a year . ' If to that we add the 1 W , OOO ? . accruings by the . decease of the late Queeh Dowager , it will amount to the sum annually raised by the Window . Duty , at the cost of the health , ; cleanliness ; and , comfort of those wlib rriost Btaud in need of these requisites .

      All taxation is more or less unequal , ^ inc ita pressure upon various classes . The Window Duty is peculiarly so . It does not ' affecteither the very poor or the very rich . It is expressly contrived to fall upon the better class of mechanics , arid the ~ sti ' uggling portion of the middle and : professional classes , who have , Heaven knows ! to ® many other taxes to paj besides . ¦ - ~

      It is also rumoui-ed that the army is to ; b 6 reduced , by the number of ten thousand mep » * If so , it ought to be a bona fide reduction , not the delusive and dishonest scheme of last year . Let the regiments be entirely disbanded , officers and men . To get rid of the cost of a few thousand privates and non-commissioned officers , and retain tho larger expense of tha officers , is to be " peuny wise and pound foolish" with a vengeance . The soldiers will compete in an already overcrowded . labour market , to the great reduction of wages ; while the country would be . burdened with nearly the same amount of . taxation , for trie support of a set of commissioned idlers . ia uniform .

      One morniug journal gravely announces on " good . authority , that Ministers are going to cut the . Gordian knot of their Canadian difficulties in a A ery summary fashion . If Canada chooses ; to separate herself , and carry out annexation ' to the United States , nobody will interfere with ; her . Lord John Eussele ' S Cabinet have , it is said , adopted the refrain . of a popular song , aud sing in concert , . ' : ' ¦ : " She may to" lioiig Kong for me ! " .-This is the commencement of a new Colonial policy . If Canada , -why not the Ctipc of Good Hope ? They are as rebellious there as -in Canada . Wh y not in the Ionian Islands ? Lord High ; Commissioner Ward has had soriie hanging arid shooting work there . . Why not

' Why not cut the painter , aud sot them , ; all" adrift ? In Jamaica—in British Gruiaiia—in Trinidad—in New Zealand —in . the Australian Colonies , dissatisfaction and disaffection prevail . Doctor Lahvg , before sailing . to P , ort Philip in the Clifton , a short time ago , with a cargo of emigrants , published a letter , to Lord Grey , in which he very ,. plainly gave him notice of the coming United States of .

      IvOBEBT , in his characteristic : style ; answers the question cautiously , ¦; and—as our Scottish frierids sayji'i <; canniiy . ' - ' ; iHe ; is not the ; man for ; any-bold or hazardous frank admissions , or unguardedprbmises . While he advises the farmers at once to act upon the persuasion that Protection ; can never be restored , arid that , consequently , prices will , 'in future , ¦ always range low , f . he does not propose to take " present prices as , the ' basis of what they

      wilLbe in future , aud . make corresponding reductions ,- either in rent or otherwise . Nbtat all . ; The peculiar circumstances of the last t \ ro : or three years exercised such a disturbing effect u ' pon European markets , generally ,, that Sir Robert means to wait until he can see clearly how far these accidental causes are to be separated front the essentialaiid permanent effects of a free import of provisions . ^ Yhen he has found out that , he Nvill speak again .

      , Meantime , he ; makes certain offers , sufficient in his iestimation to meet the . existing crisis ; tb all those tenants holding more than ten acres' of land , who . ' pay' the Michaelmas rent ,. arid a # . arrears ; that riiay be due ; ho promises to set . apart twenty per cent , of the last half year ' s * rent for the purpose of drainage , the removal of unnecessary fences , and the riieans of preventing the waste of manure . On this , expenditure no , return will be required from the tenants , andthe same course is to bo pursued . with , ; the next half-yeivr ' s rent , thus 1

      g iving , a . reduction , of , forty per cent , on the year ' s rent , tobe applied to tho permanent im-. provement . otiKeland ^; .. If additional drainage bo required upon any favms , or other , improvemerits ' . be desired , ; . ; Sir Robert will ¦ execute them , upon the tenant drawing the materials , ; arid paying four per ceut . upon the ' putlay ; arid farther , in the few cases where , leases exist , ho will consent ,, tp . relcasc tiietenaut , ou his giving ,. at the proper period , the same notice as required in the case of yearly tenancies . These latter , wo regret to learii , are ' - ' tlie rule on Sir "Robert ' s estates " ¦ " , "" ¦ '' .

      It is ' cl . earthat these terms , though apparently liberal , ' virtually concede nothing to the farmer , . and merely improve the position of tlie landlord * The twenty per cent , remitted ^ is only to those who pay the half year ' s rent , and all former arrears , and the sum , largo or small , is ; to -be !' applied to Effecting such improvements as will raise the permanent value of . the . estate as a . ' whole , ; "It . is the same with the offer to | execute . additional draining whore necessary— -the tenant must pay for all

      permanent improvements ; but lie is not to have a ' permanent interest iiri theni—nor are his rent , or other permanent burdens tp bo in any degree reduced—at least ,, at ; present . Of course , ' . . nobody . ; will blame the ex-PBEmie ' r for looking after his ; own interests ; but fair play istair play , ' -after all . "If the change he effected by his'law of 1846 , is so' ;' . ' irrevocable , " and 4 s so certain'to prbduiieaiou : average . price in future , some more decided equalisation : of the relations between landlord a-ncl

      tenant are imperative . ' , ' ' There is . no doubt that ; a groat discrepancy exists . bct \ ye 6 ritlie ' prp'duco of different farms of a . s'i . inilar . sbil , , ' ancl . as little , that , | to . a great extent , this difference arises from the . differing degrees of capital , science , and skill possessed by the tenants ! . It- is most desirable that farms , producing eighteen or twenty bushels of wheat per acre ,: as . good as those which yield forty . ; bushels , . should bo . inadoio . give the larger ; produce . 'It is equally true , that no amount 'of "Protection "from foreign produce could oriable ; . ' the irifciiortp ' mcet the superior farmer . ; . ¦ 'But ,... after ! alljthbse admissions , we hare . not got all- the truth . : We have not got

      the main , truth . Take the farmer , described by Sir Robert—who " by tho command of adequate ' capital , - bf the . application of scientific skill , b y the liberal employment of labour * by tlio saving of every ; particle ' of manure , and the restoration to tho earth of-the-elements' of fertility , which are withdrawn with evory crop , "— -produces the largest ; amount of food for man . aud " beast . ' I" what positionVdoes such a farmer stand under Sir Robert ' s system of yearly tenancies ? . Why , that of a mere worker for the landlord ; who , by the law , and the force of competition ,, may increase the rent inthoprecisopropprtiori' as production is increased , ' . and ,. leave the realproducer the barest living in return for all his exortions .

      The lord of Drayton Mauor must improve his agricultural'ethics . '' In order that such persons as ho depict ? ' ^ riay . be enabled to devote theniselvesV ^ brifideritly . to the improved culture of the , soil , they must , have leases : for given periods , based , upon equitable principles —they inust ; be secured ^ for a ' sufficient period to , ensure' th ' e ' . fetrirn . of their capital , with a fair interest ; , and thpy must also have the use of the land , at , such , a rental as the altered relations , in which Sir Robert himself has placed them , to the foreign fanner , may justly demand . *' ¦ - :: ; = ; , .. = :. ^ /
