LONDON, TUESDAY, MARCH 10. TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS. Ix consequence of the absorption of space by the reports of proceedings in Parliament, the Proprietors hays determined to issue a DOUBLE NUMBER ea SATURDAYS, so as to prevent the postpone swat of interesting matter. No change will take plat* in the price. The FIFTH. DOUBLE NUMBER of the EXPRESS will appear ON SATURDAY NEXT, March 14. Tau political destinies of England are again in the hands of that comparatively restricted portion of the population to whom is entrusted the exercise of the franchise. The issue of the next few weeks will determine the course of public events for a period of time sufficiently extended to exert a con siderable influence on the history of a people. We all of us know only too well how this matter of the franchise stands. Restricted even in theory to an area far too narrow for the demands of justice and political expediency, it is exposed in practice to every sinister influence that wealth and power can bring to bear upon cupidity and fear. We want Secret Voting, we want Extended Suffrage, we want an Equalisation of the Constituencies, before we can expect to find in the collective result of the votes of the electoral body a just and fair expression of the real mind of the English people. And even if these were conceded we should still desiderate a more frequent recurrence of general elections. Rank, and wealth, and power have ever since the great political revolution of 1832 been steadily and stealthily working the new system to the old ends. The general character of our poli tical history since the Reform Act has been a gradual recovery by the dominant closes of an ascendancy that had only been shaken for a time. Until the mind of the country is thoroughly aroused to the necessity of arresting this retrograde movement, it would be idle to expect from the existing consti tuencies any very bold or decided declaration in favour of political progress. It is one misfortune attending the present diasola : lion, that the circumstances under which it has taken place are only too lardy to divert the attention of the electors to questions which, however important, are irrelevant to the great issues on which the political rights of the community principally turn. Every effort will be made by those interested in keeping things as *my us, to render the contest one of men, not of aseasines—one of foreign policy, and not of internal progres• We do not under-rate the importance of the China question ; of all we have written on the subject, not one syllable would we retract or alter. It is important—nay, it is of the last importance— ant only that the country should withdraw its sanc tion from all participation with proceedings so utterly indefensible as those of Sir I. Bowls's°, but also that it should emphatically impress on its re presentatives the principle, that the foreign policy of the empire should be subject to the roper vision of the Imperial Legislature—that it should henceforth be impossible for the people of this country to find themselves at war with any power, whether civilised or barbarian, without the previous knowledge and sanction of Parliament. On these points it is well end right that the consti tuencies should hays a power of expressing their opinions. But it mast never be forgotten--and, from the tone of most of the electoral addressee which have yet fallen within our view, we are glad to see it is not likely to be forgotten—that the question of the Mimes war in particular, and of the Pausuurrox Ibreign policy in general, are not the only—not even the most momentous—subjects to which the atten tion of the electoral bodice ought to be invited. Even in the present state of the constituencies there are certain broad principles of civil and reli gions liberty, on which we shall indeed be disap pointed if the response of the electors be not empha tic and unmistakeable. There are certain relies of a past order of things whose existence in this advanced period of general enlightenment is a strange re proach to the good sense of the English community. Year after year, for many parliamentary generations these venerable abuses have been made the ob., jests of attacks which ought long since to have become unnecessary, and of defences so humiliating in their absurdity that we cannot pay those who are compelled to make them so bad a compliment as not to 'appose they would rejoice if the obligation of that imposed advocacy were done away with. Foremost among theme opprobria of our civilisation is the annual noisome of the Church Rates. That a battle should still have to be fought year after year over the dry bossy of this wretched controversy is (next to the simular exhibition on Maynooth) one of the most deplorable facts in oar political history. Is it too much to hope that one result at least of the coming elections may be to return to the House an overwhelming majority of men determined to put an end to thisancient grievance ? To talk of arguing such a question is really very much like sustaining a general thesis in favour of religious toleration, laboriously evincing the justice of the repeal of the Test Act, or proving on prin ciple that an auto da fe is an objectionable method of dealing with theological opponents. If in the year 1837 the principle be not self-evident that it is unjust to compel any man to contribute to the pecuniary support of a form of religious teach ing and worship which in his conscience he disapproves —if this plain axiom requires further illustration, after all the Liberal triumphs of the last thirty years, then it is conceivable that there may be an argument on the subject of Church Hates—otherwise not. There will be plenty of demands on the time of the rooarombled Parliament; an abundance of social and politicul questions of real importance will bo pressing for a solution—let us, at all events, be spared more than one other discussion on Church Rates. Let the constituencies throughout the country make this one of the tests of Liberal candidates—let no man pass muster as a Mend of civ il and religious liberty, who is not preparea or. this plain question to give a plain and straightforward vote. Nothing but an overpowering majority will be of any avail against the professional hostility of the House of Bishops. This is ono of the questions, too, on which a vague profession of Palmerstonian ism (we must have the word, for we have the thing) will not suffice. We don't trust the PREMIEIN sin cerity on this point ; we are not ware that he was ever very much in earnest on the matter, and his present relations with the right reverend bench will not probably have done much to quicken his zeal. On this point, as on so many others, the constituencies must take nothing on tract, but press the question home and hard, refusing their confidence to any professing Liberal who, on an elementary point of principle like this, fails to conic up to the requisite standard. The Abolition of the Church Bates and of the Civil Disabilities of the Jews belong to a class of questions which it is an utter disgrace to this country to have left thus long unsettled. Let it be the business of the constituencies in the coming elec tion, as far as in them lies, to wipe away both these grounds of reproach. We understand that Sir Henry Rawlinson has been requested by Lord Palmerston to accept the mission to China, bat has not yet made up his mind to undertake the delicate and difficult task. be Court.
