Pro- perty seemed their enemy ; therefore they wrapped in one indiscriminating flame the stacks and homesteads of the southern counties, seeking the improvement of their con- dition by the destruction of capital. On the other hand, the rapid progress of our physical civilisation has occasioned the growth of masses of manu- facturing population, the instruction, and moral, and religious elevation of which have hitherto been neglected by the State. These communities exhibit alarming features; lab...ouring classes, unmatched in the energy and hardihood with which they pursue their daily toil, yet thriftless, incapable of husbanding their means, or resisting sensual gratification; high wages and want under the same roof; while other portions of the same classes are struggling on the barest pittance with continual labour, abstinent by necessity. From opposite quarters misery and discontent are goading both. The Eev. Mr. Close, perpetual Curate of Cheltenham, says, in a sermon just published, 'It is a well-known fact that, in the manufacturing districts, where the highest wages are obtained, the greatest poverty often prevails ; where money is easily acquired, it is as quickly spent, and often in feasting as well as drunkenness ; per- sons in this rank of life will not unfrequently discover a degree of extravagance in the gratification of their appe- tites, which would astonish those who are much their superiors in station ; expending a week's wages in one feast, heedless of the wants of their families to-morrow.
