But riot is never caused by so reasonable a proposition as this, nor would there have been an outbreak at Staley- bridge, if the discontent of the ^ scholars ' had not been COTTON FAMINE. 357 excited by a greater intelligence than their own. The happiest accident of the Cotton Famine has been the scarcity of dem^ogues, and the best title of the suffering operatives to the political estimation of their country
