13/30 If politics turn up, you can read who host is in a gineral way with half an eye. If he is an ante-corn-lawer, then he is a manufacturer that wants to grind the poor instead of grain. He is a _new man_ and reformer. If he goes up to the bob for corn-law, then he wants to live and let live, is _of an old family_, and a tory. Talk of test oaths bein' done away with. |
