"No one can have watohed tho loaJori of the workingmon for the last ten years without finding among them men cap able of commanding the attention and respect of the House of Commons, not merely for their eloquence, surprising as that is, but for their good senso, good feeling and good breeding." Such were the words of the late Charles Kinpsley twenty years ago. The prophecy has been abundantly worifii.it.

Intellectually the work inir elasses then were far behind the standard of to-day: socially they ha no influence; politically they wore re garded asoutsido tho pale, and unfitted to excrciso even tho power contained in a vote. Tho timo was a woary one for the laborinsr man. and iustieo was an- nareiitlv slow to make its advent But delav had its advantages.
