that assembly men really capable of taking an active part in the higher duties of public life that the dignity of the House can be maintained, and that statesmen can be trained and qualified to fill the great offices of the Empire. The materials cf government are to be found there, and there only. It is the recruiting ground not only of our political army, but of our generals. One of the least satisfactory symptoms of the present day is the singular want of young men of promise and ability in Parliament to carry on the work of government. Yet the day is not distant when their services will be urgently required. The choice of good representatives in the next House of Commons may have the most important results on the interests of the next generation of our countrymen. In this, as well as in all other respects, the constituencies have the future welfare of the country in their hands, and we trust they will not fail us.
No. CCLXXX1. will be published in July.
