Sir William Molesworth dined with a large party of his constituents at Leeds, on Wednesday. He was most warmly received ; and every part of a full explanation of his Parliamentary conduct and political principles seemed to give entire satisfaction. The topics he chiefly dwelt upon were the Corn-laws, Emigration and Colonization, and National Education ; touching upon the Ballot, Suffrage-extension, and Triennial Parliaments. We have not room for long extracts, but give that part of the speech which states Sir William's reasons for voting with Ministers on Sir John Yarde Boiler's motion
" Belonging as I do to neither of the great parties in the House of Commons—for I mean to tell you, gentlemen, that I am a Hadienl—and being perfectly free from all party prejudice or partspreferences with regard to either of them, the only question with me on fiat discussion was, what would the people gain by a change of Ministers from Whigs to Tories ? The answer, whirls 1 obtained from the speeches of the Conservatives IN-as, that the people would gain nothing at all. la those speeches, the condition of the Nvorking classes writ hardly once alluded to. No measures were prepared to improve that condition. The Corn-laws were strenuouslv supported. Education was refitsed, except under the superintendence of the Established Church. The Penny Postage, one of the most meritorious acts of the Government, and which, I firmly believe, will be productive of incalculable benefit to the people, less repeatedly condemned. The appointments of the Government were denounced as being too liberal. They were blamed, because your former &presentative, Mr. Macaulay, is in frivour of the Ballot and an alteration of the C5T11la WS—because Mr. Wyse is a Catholic, aml the able advocate of national education. These were the the chief arguments of the Tories in support of their claims to ollice; and, they would have convitteed me, if any dunk had previously existed in my mimi, of the propriety of oppo:ing their wishes. (Land and repeated cheers.) At the same time, 1 beg distinctly to state, that I gave ho vote of confidence in Ministers—that I Merely asserted that they were better than the Tories."
Mr. Tollemache, who was to have been the Conservative candidate for South Cheshire, at the next election, has been appointed High Sheriff of the county ; although he urged as an especial excuse for not serving, that the constituency desired to return him to Parliament. The Conservatives tae very angry, and declare that Mr. Tollemache has been appointed merely to free Mr. George Wilbraham from a troublesome competitor. Mr. George Cornwall Leigh having announced himself as candidate for North Cheshire, Mr. E. J. Stanley has found it necessary to put forth an address to the electors, declaring his resolution again to chains their votes.
