[blocks in formation]

office consists of Irish and Scotch mem-
bers, ib.-The emancipation act gave
to the priesthood of Ireland too much
power, ib.—the novelty of the electoral
privilege led away the people of Scot-
land, 242-the turn of the public mind
is now decidedly Conservative, ib.-the
fundamental mistake fallen into by the
Conservative party, was in not perceiv-
ing the practical working of the Reform
Bill, 243 it has admitted into the
House of Commons needy traders in
politics, ib.-men of fortune avoid asso-
ciation with them, 244-professions of
gratitude too frequently pass between the
representative and his constituents, ib.
-his duty of greater importance than
gratitude, 245-expenses of elections
have deterred Conservatives coming for-
ward, ib.-labour as well as money are
requisite to ensure success to the Con-
servative cause, 246- Conservatives
have been too little ambitious of popu-
lar favour, 247-the press the most
powerful instrument to support the Con-
servative policy, 247-the rest must be
effected by personal intercourse with
tenants and feuars, 248-great object
of the framers of the Reform Bill to
counteract the votes of agricultural elec-
tors by village voters, 249-let no one
undervalue the effect of individual ex-
ertion, 250.

Delta, Echoes of Antiquity, second series,
by him, 701.
Democracy, 71-much as has been written
on democracy, the subject has not been
probed to the bottom, ib.-dark as the
prospect of Europe after the revolution
of the Barricades, its worst symptoms
were at home, 72-all the concurring
motives which can influence the human
heart, produced the Reform Bill, ib.-
This Magazine almost alone combated
the revolutionary monster, 73-foreign
and domestic results of the revolution,
ib.-Whigs invariably do what in Oppo-
sition they most vehemently condemned,
75

for example, they interfered in
the internal concerns of other states, ib.
-while at home, they corrupt patro-
nage, appoint foraging commissions,
encourage the Popish faction, insult the

Protestant Church, oppress the poor,
profess liberty, and attempt centralisa-
tion, by establishing a gendarmerie, and
grasping at the administration of the
turnpike roads, 76, et seq.-it was the
same in former revolutions, 77-cause
of revolution deeply seated in the ori-
ginal corruption of the human heart, 78
-shown by depraved acts in the United
States, 80-by the delusive acts of
South America, 82-by the distracted
state of Spain, ib.-republicanism not
opposed to, but can only be supported
by the virtues of Christianity, 83-be-
fore it can be established the bonds of
society must be loosened, 84 -re-
publicans, aware of this, but their pana-
cea for all evils is education, ib.-mere
intellectual cultivation incompetent for
the purpose, 85-why aristocratic go-
vernment is preferable, demonstrated,
88-controlling power in good govern-
ment is number over property, 90.

English Church Rates, and the Scotch
Church Establishment, 682-abolition-
ists of church-rates anxious to discon-
nect them from the question of a national
church, ib.-There are only two ima-
ginable grounds of distinction between
church-rates and tithes, law and hard-
ship, both of which proved untenable,
683-principle of abolition of church-
rates, if applied, would accomplish the
destruction of the Scotch church, 685
-English church-rates, if a voluntary
tax, so must be Scotch assessment for
churches and manses, 686-and paro-
chial schools, 688,-church-rates if op-
pressive to dissenters in England, much
more the assessment to Episcopalians
in Scotland, ib.-has the effect which

the abolition of church-rates would
have on the Scotch church been duly
weighed? 689-similarity of rates and
assessment ought to influence the con-
duct of dissenters similarly towards both,
ib.-Scotch dissenters can have no
other motive to interfere in the ques-
tion of English church-rates than the
desire for the overthrow of the Scotch
church, 690-for the establishment of
the voluntary principle, ib.-Protest of
some town councillors against the in-

cil in the question of English church-
rates, given, in a note, 691-juggling

Fictitious Votes, on, 375-Object of the

fictitious votes, arisen on account of the
triumphs of Conservatism, ib.-no just
grounds for asserting the Scottish con-
stituency to have obtained the elective
franchise on other rights than the Re-
form Bill, 377-all votes founded on
property, liferent, aud tenancy, in ac-
cordance with the Reform Bill, 378-
What does the Whig clamour on this
subject mean? 385-are they prepared
to meet the question of Universal Suf-
frage? ib.

Foreign Policy, 276-French non-inter-
vention contrasts favourably with Bri-
tish intervention, ib.-relief of Bilboa,
not the pacification of Spain, 280-
Christinos have weakened, the Carlists
improved, their prospects, 281-ulti-

not preserve Spain from republicanism,
282-Intrigue of Thiers for direct inter-
