Lastly, the regulationin favour of the freedmen had undoubtedly for its primary object to make its proposer master of the street; but in itself it was neither unwarranted nor incompatible with the aristocratic constitution.

"See," said the enemies of the Ministry, "see, by and by, when parliament assembles, a cruel specimen of class legislation the unjust triumph of the landed interest the legitimate working of the Chandos clause in the Reform Bill!"
