A PARTY SPEECH.

(Received March 28, 9^lo a.m.) LONDON, March 27. The Drake of Northumberland, speaking at Newcastle, described the Peckham, bye-election, in which the liberal candidate was defeated, as a miniature general election. He emphasised thef argument that there was a revulsion of feeling against the falsehoods about Chinese labour on the Rand and the .plundering Licensing Bill. It attacked capital, he . said, and unless capital were defended, workmen might find themselves worse off.
