He then quoted at length from Mucaulay’s istor of Lugland as to the parliamentari struzgle with tho Stuart Kings. Coming to the present time, Mr. Stowurt charged that the president, in disvegard of his onth of oftice to execnte the luws, hud permitted the secretary of the treasiry to violate the act which made the burchase of 4,000,000 ounces f silver bullion per mouth by exercising an unlawful in purchusing smaller amount.
