Keir Hardie and his friends are so anxious to introduce here. A great social democratic party on the one hand, are bluntly and squarely face to face with a capitalist and military confederation on the other. That is the issue, as it presents itself in Germany; that is the issue, as I devoutly hope it may never present itself here. And what is the result?
Follow that Salvation lassie to the slums, and listen to her as she tries to persuade a drunken husband and father to give up the soul-destroying habit which is such a curse to wife and child, and you see the Atonement. Go with J. Keir Hardie to the House of Commons and listen to his pleading for justice to his order and you see the Atonement.
We have therefore conferred upon our Asiatic subjects an increase of security, of industry and of produce, and of consequent greater means of enjoyment." It is therefore a very grave charge that Mr. Keir Hardie brings against the British Administration when he says, a century after these words were written, that the standard of living among the Hindu peasantry has deteriorated.

Determined, if I pay it, to get a widow immediately.... "Breakfasted to-day with the B.'s. At the theatre with Mellis day before yesterday. I hope Mary continues better. Your affectionate son, J. HILL BURTON." "11 KEIR STREET, EDINBURGH, 1st Dec. 1830.
Dearest among these to Montrose were his relatives of the Merchiston and Keir connexion the veteran Lord Napier, Montrose's brother-in-law and his Mentor from his youth; Sir George Stirling of Keir, and his wife, Lord Napier's daughter; and several other nieces of Montrose, young ladies of the Napier house.
They reached a point within five hundred yards of the building, but the fire was too hot, and they wheeled round in rapid retreat.

No progress whatever was made by the attack in this quarter.
Day, and myself together men of very different characters, but all devoted to literature and science.
