Bright (John, M. P.) SPEECHES ON QUESTIONS OF 

 PUBLIC POLICY. By the Right Hon. JOHN BRIGHT, M.P. 

 Edited by Professor THOROLU ROGERS. Author's Popular Edition. 

 Globe 8vo. 3*. 6d. 



The speeches which have been selected for publication in these volumes 

 possess a value, as examples of the art of public speaking, which no 

 person will be likely to underrate. The speeches have been selected 

 with a view of supplying the public with the nidence on which Mr. 

 Brighf s friends assert his right to a place in the front rank of 

 English statesmen. They are divided into groups, according 

 to their subjects. The editor has naturally given prominence to 

 those subjects with which Mr. Bright has been specially identified, 

 as, for example, India, America, Ireland, and Parliamentary 

 Reform. But nearly every topic of great public interest on which 

 Mr. Bright has spoken is represented in these volumes. "Mr. 

 Brighf s speeches will always deserve to be studied, as an apprentice- 

 ship to popular and parliamentary oratory ; they will form 

 materials for the history of our time, and many brilliant passages, 

 perhaps some entire speeches, will really become a, part of the living 

 literature of England." DAILY NEWS.
