Sir Timothy Beeswax There had lately been a great Conservative reaction in the country, brought about in part by the industry and good management of gentlemen who were strong on that side;--but due also in part to the blunders and quarrels of their opponents.

That these opponents should have blundered and quarrelled, being men active and in earnest, was to have been expected.

Such blunderings and quarrellings have been a matter of course since politics have been politics, and since religion has been religion.

When men combine to do nothing, how should there be disagreement?
When men combine to do much, how should there not be disagreement?
Thirty men can sit still, each as like the other as peas.

But put your thirty men up to run a race, and they will soon assume different forms.
