Here and There in London (Classic Reprint) by James Ewing Ritchie PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Here and There in London Henry Drummond, is one of them - who main tain that the House of Commons is utterly cor rupt - that there is not a man in that House but has his price; but we instinctively feel that such a general charge is false - that no institution could exist steeped in the demoralisation Mr. Drummond supposes - that his statement is rather one of those ingenious paradoxes in Which eccentric men delight, than a sober ex position of the real truth. Mr. Drummond should know better. A poor penny-a-liner of a bilious temperament, Without a rap in his pocket, might be excused such cynicism; but it does not become an elderly religious gentle man, well shaven - With clean linen, and a good estate. The House of Commons is a mixed assembly. It contains the fool of quality - the Beotian squire - the needy adventurer - the un principled charlatan; but these men do not rule it - do not form its opinion - do not have much influence in it. It is an assembly right in the main. Practically it consists of well-endowed, well-informed business men - men With little enthusiasm, but With plenty of common sense.
