Description
Queen Victoria sees from the Manchester speeches that the Ballot is the stalking horse of the Radicals. The Queen is glad to hear that the Cabinet are busy with the Reform Bill question. Queen Victoria hopes that they will not come to a final decision without having first ascertained how the proposed plan will operate when practically applied to the present state of the Franchise and Suffrage. Queen Victoria wishes to arrive at a definite opinion herself.
