those who for a long time were the least sanguine, that the Reform Bill will pass the House of Lords ; not, perhaps, without some furious oppo- sition, but without that weight of numbers which alone could render such opposition formidable. A very considerable movement has recently taken place i%the proxies; several that were given. to the Anti-Re- formers have dl'ianged.hands ; and many Peers, who had hung back, are at length declarinetheir acquiescence in the Great Measure. We state these facts, not to lull, but to stimulate the vigilance and activity of the People. We call on them now to labour heartily and actively in the cause that is their own, inasmuch as their labour is not without assured hope of a full and deserved success.
