know that, when William th&Conqleror - ; conquered England and ijavi fhe land » away in large blocks to hislolloillifl, it ; was the greatest curse that f£er bejgl ' England; it caused two clalbes—jflfe serfs, and the other, bloated arigtoqjjSy, who boast that they and their ancfplors never did a day's work in their^JMfe. Such useless animals, if they hsd^eTer done as useful piece of labour as cleaning out a pig sty, that would have been some* thing more to boast about, fbr their ancrslors got the land at first by murder and pilfering, and that is why they hare been able to do without work ever since. Those are the men that despise the working class, and boast of their high origin ; and, if we do not w«nt this state of things repeated, we must support Sir George Grey and his party. Sir George names a person that purchased 80,000 acres for £5000 in New Zealand awhile ago, and now, through, the public work done by the Government with the borrowed money it is valued at £125,000. That is the way to get to be capitalists. We want the land dividing into small holdings either freehold or perpetual leasehold under Government at a small rent, and not,- to rise the rent after improvements,, so that thousands and tent) of thousands of families might be all prosperous and happy; and only let vi be true to ouraelver and true to each other and this state of things will be brought round. Let us only be united and determined to put a brand upon trerr r man that proves false to us. It is well known that we have a few working men amongst us that would go about canvass* ing for any party for a few pounds, yea, they would sell us and our happiness for a few shillings, but let us. look.oat for such like rats and reptilea that are always crawling, and defeat them.
