  Reform Act 1867 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Adullamites, at this point led by Robert Lowe, were persuaded to ally with the Conservative party.
The Adullamites were anti-reform, as were the Conservatives but the Adullamites were not easy to work with and wanted to have too many of their number in the Cabinet.
He lost his alliance with the Adullamites, but managed to get the Bill passed by allying with radicals, this was a tactical move, Disraeli used the radical support for the bill to undermine Gladstone's opposition.

 John Bright - LoveToKnow 1911
Palmerston's death in the early autumn brought Lord John Russell into power, and for the first time Bright gave his support to the government.
Russell's fourth Reform Bill was introduced, was defeated by the Adullamites, and the Derby-Disraeli ministry was installed.
Bright declared Lord Derby's accession to be a declaration of war against the working classes, and roused the great towns in the demand for reform.

 [No title]
Accordingly, in March 1866 Gladstone, who now led the House of Commons, introduced a measure which proposed to extend the county franchise to £14 and the borough franchise to £7 householders.
The bill did not create much enthusiasm among Liberals, and it was naturally opposed by the Conservatives, who were reinforced by a large section of moderate Liberals, nicknamed, in consequence of a phrase in one of Bright's speeches, Adullamites.
Commons showed little disposition to give the ministry any effective support, an amendment was carried by Lord Dunkellin, the eldest son of Lord 'Clanricarde, basing the borough franchise on rating instead of rental.

The Adullamites are dangerous, because they know what they want; and that is, all the money there is going.

 The Battle Of Antietam Part V
The mildest of Secretaries of War was not likely to forget the sentence, "You have done your best to sacrifice this army," which closed his despatch of June 28 to Secretary Stanton, and Secretary Stanton was far from being the mildest of Secretaries of War.
The evil habit then prevailed among civilians in high places of encouraging communications from the Adullamites of the army, and detraction was probably unceasing among the maurvaises langues of the time.
Hooker was open in his denunciations of McClellan as "a baby," and such things as Hooker said openly others probably said with more prudence.

 Albert Jay Nock / Henry George: Unorthodox American, Part 2
It was easy to vilify George, because the allegation that he was a sheer proletarian leader was true enough, as far as this campaign went; he was, officially and by nomination, a labor candidate.
Some among his supporters, of course, understood his ideas and purposes and believed in them, hut these were relatively few; the majority were mere Adullamites.
As far as George was concerned, there was no need of this warning, far his day in politics was done.

 Biography - by Hamilton Mackinnon - Australian Tales - Marcus Clarke, Book, etext
To this only a very select body of members was admitted, the selectness in this case necessitating that a member should be happily impecunious, and, if possible, be hunted by the myrmidons of the law.
The entrance to the modest building was not easy of access, being only reached by a tortuous lane of ominous appearance, guarded by an animal who boasted the bluest of blue bulldog blood.
Chief among the members of this exclusive brotherhood was the subject of this biography, who, having discarded the more conventional surroundings of the Yorick Club, became a shining light within the shades of the Cave of Adullam.

You could find blame like this without joining any social movement, which would be just as manipulative, mollycoddle.
As Schopenhauer wrote in The World as Will and Representation, “The concept of good is divided into two subspecies, that of the directly present satisfaction of the will in each case, and that of its merely indirect satisfaction concerning the future, in other words, the agreeable and the useful.
Anyone who’d blame his own personal problems on social problems, would seem to be an Adullamite.

If so, it is their own concern, and we shall perhaps be believed if we say that we shall regret the additions which they obtain in such a way far more for their sakes than our own.
The Adullamites in politics have their representatives in theology, and they are so uncertain in the use of their weapons that their friends have more reason than their foes to be afraid of them.

 Dr Chuck Pearson: July 2005 Archives
The text itself I'm only starting to get through, but I'm already absolutely clobbered by one of Cornford's descriptions.
As you work your way through the parties involved in academic politics, after he describes Conservative Liberals, Liberal Conservatives (and those two are as different as they appear to be), Non-placets (men of principle) and Adullamites (men who want all the money there is going), we reach this beast:
The Young Man in a Hurry is a narrow-minded and ridiculously youthful prig, who is inexperienced enough to imagine that something might be done before very long, and even to suggest definite things.

 Chapter V. Lincoln: War Statesman.
McClellan's dismissal was a matter of dire necessity because victory was impossible under his command.
But he was a dangerous reinforcement to the Adullamites; for many of the loyal public had been fooled by his proclamations, the press had written him up to the skies as the Young Napoleon, and the great mass of the rank and file still believed in him.
He took the kindly interest in camp comforts that goes to the soldier's heart; and he really did know how to organize.

 Reagan and Salisbury
His writings on politics in the mid-19th century, when he was estranged from his father and had to earn a living as an upmarket journo, are among the most wickedly funny and shrewd dismemberments of liberal and egalitarian pretensions ever put into print.
In this Salisbury had cross-party links with the Adullamites, such as the great Robert Lowe, who had developed a horror of democracy as the result of spending (where else) some years in Australia.
The Primrose League and other Tory-democracy associations were designed to corral the newly liberated energies of lower-middle and working-class voters into respectable channels.

What denunciations, what sneers, what gibes, what slurs would have filled the New York city papers in regard to those Western fellows who want to degrade the standard!
How glib would have been the tongues of their orators in denouncing all who advocated the remonetization of gold as cranks, socialists, populists, anarchists, ne’er-do-wells, and Adullamites, kickers, visionaries, and frauds!
Is there any practical doubt that we should have witnessed all this?

He came, and found that the agenda contained only one item: a discussion of the question why the girls in the new co-educational dorm were not sleeping with the boys.
The discussion was agonizing, pitting the conservative-liberals against the liberal-conservatives and the non-placets against the Adullamites (to use Cornford's nomenclature), until one of them, looking slightly more exhausted than the rest, spoke up and said: “Could it be because they are sleeping with us?”
The parable seems to me to have the advantage of providing insight without forcing us into knowledge.

A survey team from the Methodist Board of Education, ostensibly studying student opinion on World Missions, found much to report on Waugh and brought an angry counter-
blast from Morgan, with his contemptuous, "the Adullamites all flocked to them."
Was it not devious, Professor Carl Hartzell of Franklin and Marshall inquired of Morgan, to speak of a "serious financial condition" resulting from Waugh's short term, and then immediately present Dickinson as one of the few colleges without a deficit?

In the death of its king, and in its passing into the possession of Israel, however, the lesson being presented is that as men and women clothed in the righteousness of Christ, we are to reflect that same righteousness in our lives.
The fact that its king had been slain, and the city delivered into the hand of Israel, declares all too clearly that the deeds of the Adullamites testified to their wickedness, and to the righteousness of God’s judgment against them.
Continuous care is needed to ensure that our deeds are a fitting testimony to God’s saving and keeping grace.
