      THIXKINGS FROM SHAKESPEARE . Mosr violent delights have violent ends , And in their triumph die : like fire and powder , Which as they kiss , consume . 0 world , thy slippery turns ! Friends now fast swoin Whose double bosoms seem to wear one heart , tt w i ii ... £° * » a 3 ' twere , inlove TJnsepnrab . e , shall withia this hour , Ou a dissention of a doit , break out To bitterest enmity . Women are not in their best fortunes , strong ; Euc want will perjure the ne ' er-touched vestal 'Tis better to ba lowly born , And range with humbe livers in content , Than to be perked up in a glistering grief , And wear a golden sorrow .

      What stronger breastplate than a heart untainted ? Thrice is he armed that hath hi % quarrel just And he bat naked , iko' locked no in steel , Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted . He that stands upon a slippery place . Makes nice of no vile hold to stay htm up . Bow far that little candle throws its beams , So shines a good deed ia a naughty world . I know him a notorious liar . Think him a great way fool , sol ely a coward , Ls » these fixed evils sit so well oi him , That they take place , when virtue ' s steely bones , Look bleak in thecald wind .

      The Hbmblb Ohiois op Gekius . —Homer is said to have been a poor blind beggar ; Esop , the fabulist , was a slave ; lae father of Shakespeare was a hosier ; Milton was the son of a petty scrivener : James Watt was a mechanic ; Defoe was a butcher ; Arkwright a barber ; Ferguson , the astronomer , was a Scotch herd-boy , as was also Robert Mehol ; Burns was a plonghtnan ; Bloomfield a shoemaker ; Franklin a printer ; Washington a farmer ; Banyan was a tinker ; Oliver Cromwell was a brewer ; Sheridan Snowies is the son of a Belfas t Schoolmaster ; John Clare was a farmer ' s labourer * and .

      HODSB-BOILDISC IS TUB METR 0 P . OtI 8 . ' —Wbeh pWSOnf dbserve the large numher of houses buiWing on all » W 6 S o » London , the question is often asked , Where are the tenant * to be found ? In truth , however , the number of houses building scarcely keeps pace wiih the present increase of the population , and in fifty years henoe more than double the number of houses existing in 1851 ( 307 , 732 ) would be required to keep pace with the geometrical progress of the living . "To a casual observer , " say * the author of a chart compiled from the Reg istrar-General ' s reports , " comparatitel y few houses seem unoccupied in Londons The census returns give five in every 100 , not including those building . The additional houses required for habitation in the year 1852 will number about 6 , 151 ; in the

      following year , 6 , 268 ; and so on increasing . But although the inhabitants of this vast city hate increased in ten years twenty-one per cent ., the inhabited houses indicate Rn increase of only seventeen per cent . ; which proves that the masses are either more densely packed together than ten years ago , or that the houses recently constructed are more commodious and of larger dimensions . " A valk throug h the older distriots of London shows a largo number of houses uninhabited , even ia streets where but a few years ago it would have been scarcely possible to obtain a house on any terms . The unavoidable inference is , knowing the number of houses built and the increase of the population , that the inhabitants are worse lodge ! than they were , the houses more crowded .

      TO THE ELECTORS AND NON-ELECTORS OF THE TOWER HAMLETS . & ENTLEMEN , —In consequence of my having been honoured with a requisition inost numerously signed both by Electors and Non-Elector * , requesting me to allow mjself to be put in nomination as a Candidate for tbe Toner Hamlets at tbe ensuing Election , I row come before you to ask for your suffrages and support I am also induced to take tbat course because at several numerously a tended Public Meetings , resolutions embodying tbe spirit of the requisition bare been a ' most unanimously carried . I do not pretend to conceal that thU step i » a most serious ode , and much as I desire tbe high honour of representing tbe liberal opinions of tbe Toner Hamlets in the legislature , I Would not have committed mjself to the course I have now taken , without a fair prospect of success ; h « t having done so 1 pledge mjself tbat I will not deceive my friends and supporters by stopping thort of going to the poll .

      With that determination it is but right tbat I should afford to those wnom I aspire to represent a full and complete insight into tbe views I entertain , and the measures I should be prepared to support . ^ The first question to which I shall refer is the great question of POLITICAL FREEDOM , which is taking so strong a ho'd upon tbe minds of the * people of this country . I am thoroughly impressed _ withtV . e conviction that the only measure consistent with justice ia tbe admission of every sane man untainted by crime within the pale of tbe constitution ; and I am perfectly persuaded that public opinion is generally tending toward a recognition of the great political troth that the basis cf representation ' should be MANHOOD ana INTELLIGENCE , instead of Property and Taxation , and to the establishment of UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE among the institutions of the country . Looking to that as the gre it fundamental political change upon which all others must re 3 t , I am not insensib . e to minor and sub 6 i . diary measures which would of necessity ac ompany it . A nong these are an Equitable Disibibotion of Electors to Representatives , facilities for protecting the voter from intimidation , by m < ans of Tote bt Bauat , and a considerable Siiobtemhq of Pak-LUMents ; approving of which I pledge mvself , should I be returned . topresentmyself annually before the constituency and leek an approval of my conduct It also appears to me to be absolutely

      certain that with the attainment of the right of the people , other time-honoured abuses—remnants of a past age—would be razed to the ground . The voice of the people once fairly allowed to be heard , the SEPARATION of CHURCH and STATE would be secured , aa also tbe EMANCIPATION OF THE JEWS . Then the Vjat dissenting todies of this country would lie freed from the mingled insult and injustice of being compelled to support with their property an ecclesiastical sygtemopposed to their coosciencee , and religion would be left to that voluntary support which furnishes the best test ef the sincerity of it * prtfeasots , and is most consistent with its fullest and highest development It would be an unpardonable omission ia an address of this character to pass by the topic of EDUCATION . I am sensible that the subject is surrounded by difficulties of no ordinary character , but I amalso unable to shut my eyes to the fact that the two great resuits of L-norance , are poverty and crime , and that a people can sever become really civUisea or virtuous till some steps are taken to meet and deal with those evils . I wtuld therefore earnestly sup . port the enactment of a measure which should provide for that Training which it is necessary all should receive without violating the principles or scruples of any community . The plan which ap . pears to me to present the best chance of success , is one which would give to LOCAL BODIES the power to conduct their own educational arrangements .

      _ Other candidates who seek the favour of representing you in Parliament , no doubt entertain views nearly in accordance with those which I have expressed—but the distinctive ground upon which I stand is the mode in which the POVERTY and LABOUR of the country is to be legislated for . I believe the LABOUR QUESTION to be that which more immediately presses for solution , and . upon the satisfactory settlement of which the welfare of all classes depends . It is my opinion that when trade and manufacture leaves thousands of men idle , it is as much the duty of the rulers ot the tonntry to provide employment for them , as to furnish the means of education . Our laws already acknowledge the obligation of the state to find tbe hare means of subsistence for those who cannot find the opportunity to support themselves by their own labour But bare existence is not all that is required . The labourers of this tountrydonot require CHARITY , but the . INDEPENDENCE OF HONEST LABOUR-and while there are in this country tbe two jreat sources of all wealth—land and labour—both idle—both ready » be brought into contact , and to produce necessaries and luxuries t ) r millions , I cannot conceive that the trading classes of this coun . Iry can be fairly called upon to pay for tbe support of those who re both willing and able to provide for themselves .

      A measure which makes a fbovision foe the great bsceetainti > p employment , presents itself to my mind as the great essential to 'ie social improvement of the people . It would render the intense competition which presses so severely on all classes lesB burdensome ; audit would open tip new markets by the creation of a large consuming class at our very doors . In addition to such a measure as that , I would ask for an amendment of the LAWS OF PARTNERSHIP which fetter and restrict enterprise . A thorough revision of the PATENT LAWS so as to enable the poor inventor to secure to himself , at a small expense , the reward of his own ingenuity , and a simple meana of LEGALISING ASSOCIATIONS for the purposes of trade and industry . I need only glance at the abolition of the TAX 6 S UPoN KNOWLEDGE—and a fair distribution of the INCOME TAX as absolutely necessary . I conclude by saying that I give my thorough , earnest and hearty adhesion to the principle of FREE TRADE , not only as part ofa fiscal system , hut as a principle which should permeate every act of government , and make COMMERCE , MANUFACTURE EDUCATION . ASSOCIATION , and RELIGION FREE for all and beneficial to all ; and if by the adoption of Free Trade the legislature should be the means of depriving Industry of Employment a recognition of the principles which I have briefly alluded to will prevent that unlimited internal competition which degrades both the trader and worker to a low social and moral position , W .
