Lord BROUGHAM—My lords, in pursuance of the estiew which 1 have given I intended to bring forward the subject which at present occupies so tarp • por tion of public attention, and which has caused an apprehension in the minds of many—ladeed I believe I might say amongst all the inhabitants of this great metro polis-1 meal the projected destruction of Hyde-park, by the priest public sap eition of the metinsfastares of all me lions to be held in 1851. (Hear, bear.) I have been strongly urged not to postpone my =GO= ; but I leave yielded to the suggestion that I ought to du so until after the report of the commissioner shall have been made. I have set yet seen that report which is to be made by the cummistiesen eon elected with the exposition ; sad! shall, therefore, *epeeist postpone my motion till Thursday, when I shall certainly bring it forwent. (Hear, hear.) Lord CAMPBELL hoped his noble and learned friend would not farther postpone it. (" Hear, bear," from Lord Brougl am ) He (Lord Campbell) owed a duty to his kllow-esbjects es well as to the crown ; and be was, therefore, impelled to utter his solemn warning against the projected proeeedins, which, if no: illegal, were at leant unconstitu.

(Hirer, hear.) Its (Lord Brougham) was de termined to give the inauspicious measure every resistance in his power, (Hear, hear.) The subject then drooped. THE FACTORIES BILL. The Duke of RICHMOND gave notice that, on the second reading of the Factories Bill, it was his intention to move an amendment similar to that which bad been intro duced by Lord John Banners in the House of Commons. Lord FEVERSHAM inquired when the mead reading of the bill would he taken ? Earl GRANVILLE replied on Monday next. EDUCATION. The Earl of HARROWBY (who was indistinctly heard), in rising to save for the " appointment of a select commit tee to inquire into the operation and effect of the system under which the I grant of public money for the pur poses of education is administered." said it would be his duty to touch ;only on a hew leading points is cennexion with the rubies. before the house, without going into details, o induce their lordships to coincide in the view which he (the noble earl) entertained. He thought the event of last yea proved there was only one way open, namely, education im parted through the several religion bodies in the commu nity. (Hear, bear.) He tallied that in the preset sir attestants of the country, that was the only mine they could with safety adopt. (Hear, hear.) It was im poesible to separa'e religion from education. They might separate instruction from religion; hot ideation they I could not; and on that point be thought the mind of the country was mate up He thought the alternative of giving rerensw quid would not be distasteful to any peen ; but eduatien and rcligi on should be usocisted. (Hear, hear ) The committee of education was entrusted with almost an. Controlled power, and it was not unnatural that it should be 1 looker' upon with jealousy. They were possessed of a great 1 and delicate power which it was desirable to watch from time to time. Another point of great importance was to ascertain if the present system of i n spection was managed in such • manner as really to work out the objects which were content plated by its institution. He suppAed it would not be de- stied that the elevation of the lower classes was the object principally to be sousidered in a system of national *dun tion. But the scale of education required of the school masters was raised far too high. He knew of me instance where seven of those who were receiving iassruciios in the training school were preparing themselves to become derma's. The cosseruenee of such a system was that there win a displacement of occupations, and many who would naturally he grouts' apprentices, or who would turn to some similar Deism, looked to higher employment. The middle classes tot unnaturally were jealous at such a state of things, and somplainsel that en education was pro vided fur the labour's, clams at the expense of the state, which they were not able to emir* for their own children. With m regard to female education , the objection that the (de on cati was en without reference to the situation of the Enktireceiving it, was perhaps more forcible. He held in nd sons ol the questioas which were asked in the female schools, sad amongst them were such as the fallow ing —" State the difference between monogamous and aye to ." (Laughter.) He who happened to have the a vactage of learning Greek might know the difference, but he much quesioned the utility of putting such a open Lon to mantles in the elms of life fir whom national edam. tior. was intenied. (Hear, hew.) Other questions wers. "What do you mean by quadnmenoua animals? " (LAW-ter.) " What 1110711 the literary ;inductions of the Aril Saxon period?" (Laughter.) These persons might, indeed, obtain from a oat-china some superficial g .bble so such subjects, but such instruction would leave the mind set only uninformed, bat in a worse condition than if it wen totally uneduested. (Hear, hear.) It was really • mime matter to divan the meads of those who were to instruct the ' people from obtaining sound informaeion on two cr *reel leading brandies of knowledge, and spreading it thinly—very Maly,. laded—over thirteen or fourteen different subjects on which it was impossible for thee to acquire anything like attests infocenation. (Hear.) He did set by any mesas desire to limit the aqui:emu's of any; bat what he main• tallied was, that this should be left to the love of learning in the individual, but should not be Breed at the expense of the state. (Haar, hear.) He admitted that inspection was useful, if it was only foe the purpose of ecertainine what was going on with respect to the education of the country-be admitted that the reports of the iaspectors showed that they were perms of informatics and of high character, and that their only desire was to advance the welfare of the country. But whilst he admitted all this, the tendency of the system of inspection was to centralise everything connected with the education of the country, and to destroy everything like local influence and eontroL The results which each • system had produced on the coatiamt, as proved by the events of the last two years, ought to be a wanting to the government and to their lordships, hew they permitted a similar system to take root in England. Ho warned them how they turned out year by year from the Chrysalis state, thousands upon thousands of full-blown schoolmasters with wits sharpened, knowledge extended and character perhaps not improved from the discipline they were subjected to, to become, probably, preachers of discon tent throughout the country. (Hear, hear.) He did not ask for a osounittee with a he'll e vi ew, but merely for the purpose of bigotry, in order that etnecdment might be made U amendment was required ; that if what he had stated was exaggerated it might be reduced to its proper amount; if anything that was false, that it might be rectified and cor rected. (Hear, hear.) The noble earl then complained of the system pursued by the committee of council with respect to the education of children in workhouses end paob, He was inclined to disapprove of the system by which young men were subjected to • seven years' training as schoolmas ters, on the grour.d that sufficiently qualified persons might easily be obtained. The motion Bain' been seconded, The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said: To the honour ; of the inspectors, IMO of whom he had recommended, after most careful inqu iry , he would state that, up to this moment, there ad been hardly a single complaint as to their endue. In the main, they had had the good fortune to find favour is the ors of all with whom they bed communicated, who expressed themselves deeply indebted for the advice and assistance they had re ceived. The nob:* earl alleged that there was a disposition on the part of the inspectors to push their examinations for the than they ought, and to make requirements of too high • dui. This allegation had often been made, sad it nem su - lly happened that if men of great attainm entsi were se lected as inspectors they would be disposed to Mee the stan dard of the schools as high as possible. They stated, in explanation, that though they took the books in the school sad eked questions oat of them as an intellectual exercise, that examination only formed one branch of the Inquiry which they were authorised to nuke. It was part of their instructions that they were not to establish their standard of merit on the intellectual acquirements alone of the pupils, but to have regard to their moral and refigioss conduct, as cer tified by the schoolmasters and clergyman. In the reports transmitted from local committees to the emetinittee of privy council, the degree of moral corded and rellstious know ledge always formed a particular feature of those reports. A clergyman in Lancashire complained of the difficult quer tiles put by one of the inspector., Mr. Cooke, who was ap pointed, not by him, but by the late Lord Wharncliffe • re ference was made to Mr. Cooke; and his explanation showed that the questions he had put wore actually in sae in the school where the examination took place, and that those who could not answer them were deficient in other re specie. The noble earl alleged that jealousies bad been created in the abide of many by this system of education. He, on the other hand, had the mat concurrent testimony from clergymen in all quarters of the benefits of the system, and of the perfect harmony of its working. Since the re oat step taken by the National Society, the committee of maned had had no leas than 100 applications from clergy men who were willing to accept the management clauses. It should be remembered that these clauses had originated with the National Society, to meet whose views the system of Inspoetio• bad been established, and the management clauses had bees modified from time to time. The whole gravamen el the National Soeiety'e complaint was that seams was rojeired to be made out before the dampest could ex ercise the sole emoted, temporal as well as spiritual, of the schools.

That was all that they had sought to do. Religions interforeasswas carefully pecarod to and mono polised by the clergy. Ho could re nothing to object to in suck a system. This noble lord had adverted to • ais tress of • school who gave sous 'attraction to her scholars regarding the battle of Hastings. Now it was ones his lot to b• benighted on Salisbury-plain ; he took refuge in a cottage, and he asked for a book. Ono was brought to him, which he was told belonged to the allege It was of a chrosolooical character, end purported totio • history of all the events that had occurred am are creation of thus world, and sprite ing the mass 'of the mayors of Salisbury in whose year of oaks the "vents had occurred. (Laughter.) He thought, therefore, that a little gems' and historical knowledge disseminated in schools would be sinful. Ho thought he coed say no more. Hs was as desirous as the noble lord to acs • fall and starching inquiry on this subject, but when he reflected that it was now the 2nd of July, and as thus nob!' lord himself admitted that it would be aressary sot to publish the minutes of evidence this m ass, be must object to this motion. And, besides, it must not be supoosod that say vote of that hose would have any 'fist on the other boast, in which these grants originated, unless the subject could be made the sabliet of inquiry in the other house also. (Hear, bear.) Lord LYTTELTON believed that an inquiry of this kind was the only chum of arriving at • sitisfactory conclusion upon this question. This home might depend upon it that • gnat deal of dissatisfaction prevailed throughout the country. It was perfectly tree, and it would be strange If it were sot true, that many managers of schools in the country availed themselves gladly of government mistime. He was the more maim that an inquiry should be mad" into the matter bower he did not perticipato in the extreme views of those who bad tak a a part against the govern. meat. He thought that the course government had pursued, with the exception of the compulsory clasp's, was deserving of the gratitude of the country and of the church. Bat the compulsory c:auses he conceived to be a great bluader. The government could have no wisb on this question but to work with the great body of the church in the matter of education. The noble lord concluded by czpres , iog a hope that some inquiry would be made !ato the subject, as it was of ge neral importance, and some satisfactory arrangemeot was . . Lord kINNAIRD said it would be quite impossible that a committee appointed at this late period of the session could examine into the various matters in gun. ties. It appeared to him to be molt fair and reasonable that the proposition for an legality should be postponed to another session of pediment. The Bishop of SALISBURY said it might be in the recollection of the roble marquis (Lens downe) that he (the Bishop of Salisbury) had ten years ago manifested his opinions upon that subject and the wide spread jealousy which prevailed with respect to it. Be dis claimed all 'bare in the exaggerated opinions which he knew were entertained upon toe matter, as he bad always dose all he could to calm them. Be, however, wished for the icquiry proposed by the noble earl, although not upon the precise grounds be had advanced. This sy-tem of 'dandies, conducted under the nperinten • deus . of the different denominations, was a great.eapariment. . . T. female train*, school in his diocese ;as the flirt esta blished in this country and bad received the approbation of the inspectors, and he htil Glt a good deal of anxiety as to the effect on the female ruled which would arise from the weeds% of intellectual cultivation they received. They were all in the humblest ranks of life. It was fount that they generally came in very ignorant, even crowding to the standard ft quired for their entrance, and they seldom re mained more than two years, and yet many of the quell *ions put to them in examine:ion related to the most ditin• guished ecclesiastical writers and fathers of the church, of whom th y were expected to have considerable knowledge. The right rev. prelate concluded by urging the necessity of en inquiry 'on the principle of that sought by the motion, *lsiah be thought would tend to bring to light defects in the system and promote its improvement and advance the muse of sound education. The Earl of CHICHESTER opposed the motion on the ground of the lateness of the maim, although he was sure that the questi n mutt at some pen id become the subject of parlitmentiry inquiry. There was a time when he thought the charge might have been brought against the committee of the Privy Council and the government of establishing a system of education without the knowledge of parliament, sad but for his belief that a change was about to take place in that respect he should have conceived it to be his duty to bring the matter before the house. His only objection to the motion was, that at this period of the session it was im• passible for a committee to conclude its labours. There were several pilaw on which the public mind should be disabused with regard to the present system. One of them was the question of the arbitration of the bishop between the clergy man of the parish and the manager of the schools. It however appeared to him that it would not be advisable to have two systems of arbitration. The Bishop of OXFORD began by expeeniag his pleasure at the tone of moderation with which the noble marquis had spoken, and which had characterised the whole course of the debate. But he wished I. correct the mistake on which the opposition to his noble friend's motion had been founded as to the came of the long-continued controversy urged by the National Society. The mat injurious charges had been thrown out, and the foulest suspicions alleged 'seine, the society, who had been accused of yielding to the influence of jealousy in resisting the wish of the government to interfere in their education d establishments. The clergy looked with jealousy to the passing over of the education of the people from the chuck of England to the state of Eng land. The result of this is to exclude in a great degree re. ligions influence. The state had no organs of which she could avail herself in her religion, as every other sect has in its reli gion, for carrying on the course of education. There were grounds of suspicion in the system, for the movement had began in the avowed establishment of a system by the introduction of normal schools, which should exclude all distinctive religious education. At so late a period as 1814 there was a special provision, which provided for the case of schools which should be managed by the minister alone, without a committee. This was a positive provision by the committee of Privy Council. :low it was said to be a ground for refusing grants that there should be a reference to the bishop of the diocese on disputed points. (Hear, hear.) The management clauses said that it was so fatal a condition that reference should be made to the bishop, that all assistance should be denied to such schools. Government should not cut the strings of private charity, and the administration of them funds should I be carried on in such a way Ns not to afford any grounds for mapition. If there was such a great and irresponsible power is the management of those funds, and if suspicion were to be avoided, he thought that the government should court inquiry. He hoped that their lordships would agree with the motion of his noble friend opposite, and would testitute a kited and candid inquiry, which would show what was eras and what was false, would remove anything that may be found objectionable, and thus restore coafideace to the doubting church. (Hear, hear.) The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that he did not ob ject to the inquiry, but merely wished to have It postponed until the commencement of nest session, when it might be serried on more effectually, and when the other hones might conduct a concurrent investigation. The Earl of CARLISLE vindicated the conduct of the government with respect to national education, and was of opinion that the laity, as far as their fends went, were entitled to a fair share as well as the clergy. He wtuid pat it to the noble lords who bad read the cor respondence between the committee of the National Society and the Privy Council—at least, to those of them who did not entertain notions ,f church eupremasy—whether . the entire course of the Privy Council had not been marked y a desire t, remove the ebjectient and secure the co-operation of the National Society ? (Hear, hear.) Al soon as the ,Laws were drawn up to be submitted to the committee of the National Society, sal after the committee had under taks• to reaommend them to the promoters of schools, fur. ther cheeks and securities, involving the superintendence of the moral and religious instruction by the clergy, with the instatement of inepestors, had been devised. (Hear.) His noble friend had no objection to have an inquiry into the whole subject in the next session of parliament, but in the late period of the present session which they were now arrived at, he hoped their lordship, wosid not thick fit to insti tute a premature sad vexations inquiry on a matter with respect to which it was not desirable to excite contumacy and dier tm. also, hest.) Lai STANLEY said nobody doutked that there ought to +be some management clauses. The question was, whether parties mset adopt the particular clauses which her Majes ty's government sight think most desirable, and be tied thews by persosneat and unveil ins arrangement, for all lustre tame. The noble lord peccet dad to contend that the bishop of the diocese was the most proper person to erbitrate upon any disputed paint which might arms in the system of education. He regretted that the noble marquis had not weeded to the propolitioa of hie noble friend. Not many weeks ago the noble marquis Lad noticed what be was pleased to call certain ntiar , presentatioos which had been made by an hoe. sad learned goetioman who praided at • ' , labia satin es thin abl er le est.

It was also said that the meant @yearn of invades mut lead to cramming for the pant. mar examinations, and that the paled devoted to inspection was lambert that the inspectors nag seamanly form an Imo. mous opinion of the merits of the pupil.. Nothing could be more pernicious than to waken the ofilesey of local patrol. With regard to the objectioa that the husks was too far ad. mooed for the appointment of this committee, he would premiss the noble marquis that if he °Decoded the am minee now, late as it was, he should have the first "lanings "—(laughter)—and sight hold hie wicket till he we bowled out by ,pis noble friend. (Laughter.) It could not be denied that great jealousy and suspicion existed with regard to the working of the Privy Council. He believed in the trues of the old proverb that a bird in the band was worth two in the bash, and he would therefore vote for the imme diate in preforms" to the proapeetive appoiatment of a eons mitres. (Bear. hoes) The E.rl of GALLOWAY was understood to say that he would vote for the motion, unless he distinctly understood from the noble marquis that he would grant a select com mittee early next ...pion. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE was understood to say that he bad no objection to an investigation. The Earl of HARRO WHY replied.

On the motion of Mr. W.

PUBLIC BUf.IINESS. LANDLORD AND TENANT BILL. Oa the order of the day for the third reading of this bill, Mr. PUSHY said that lolking to the einunistanwes of Inland, and the intense excitement which existed there with reference to the subject of the bill, he advised Irish gentle men to consent that the bill should be applied to th►t country. The bill could not possibly do any harm, and the subject was one on which legislation was undoubtedly needed. Col. BIBTCIORP protested against this kind of legi4- tion. He believed the bill would. Rimmed, be anything but beneficial to the tenantry. He should take the seam of the house by moving that the bill be read a third time that day three months. Sir J. Y. BULLER mad net admit that a bill should be pissed because there was no harm in it. (Hear, hear.) This hill, was, in Met, liable to many objections, one of the chief being that it would lead to endless litigation. There were great disputes, for sample, with regard to the period ttquired to obtain from land the benefit of guano and other manure,. Mr. PUSEY said the bill was based on the evidence of many of the best cultivators in the come try. In one county— which was the pattern county of England—the system to whiai It was proposed to give the sanction of law was already in existence, and there it had produced none of the evils which were supposed to attach to It. Mr. CHRIS LOPHER could assure the hon. member (Mr. Posey) that he was mistaken in euppo‘ing that the system to be established by the bill eluted in Lincolnshire. (Hear, hear.) What existed there was simply a custom between landlord and tenant ; and that was a very different thing from etparlismenteu7 enactment. Mr. M'CULL&GII c sold not vote for the bill, becsuse Ireland was included in its provisions. What was needed in Ireland was so utterly different from that which seemed to be desired in England that it seemed to him a mischievous delusion to affect to deal with both in tens same bill. Sir J. S fRICHLAND supported the amendment. This was an attempt to interfere with priers property to an extent which had never before been contemplated. After a few words from Mr. PVSZT and Mr. Himmel% the hone' eivided— . _ _ Mr. HENLEY thought some injustice had been done to his hue. friend in the manner of eating the authority of the notes commissioner. In truth the attack had reference to the water meadows alone.

And with the raw of preventing or leresenini the evils of the rinht to embleenent 114 well as the loss and injury to tenants tending under landlords having limited internist, be it enacted that where the lease or tenancy in a farm held by a tenant at rah rent shall determine by the death or easier of the estate of any tendlord entitled for lees life, or for any other limited Interest, the tenant shall continue to bold and occupy the farm until the expiration of the then current year, and shall then quit upon the terms of hit lease and holding in the same manner as if MC.. least or terrine's were then determined by 'Mallon of time or other lawful mean. miring the continuance of his landlord's estate, and the suoceeding landord shall be entitled to re. ewer and receive of the tenant, In the tame manner so Wm predates sow sould have done If living, a fair proportion of the rent ter the period which may have elapsed from the day of the death or owner of the estate of such predecessor to the time of the tenant so quitting, and the succeeding landlord and the teaant respectively shall, sal be- Meru %brawls' , " and as against each other, be entitled to all the benefits and advantages, and be subject to the restrictions to which the preceding lanlloid awl such tenant Tlepectively would have been entitled and abject, In case the lase or tenancy had determined in manner aforesaid, at the expiration of such current year. Mr. PUSHY said that, as the clauss was lair in principle, and in accordance with the general na'ur• of the bill, be would not object to its introduction. The elan.. was then agreed to, and added to the bill. On the motion of Mr. MULLINOS, the following clams was agreed to, and added to the bill: Aud -r be it enacted, that in can the glowing crops of the tenant of any farm shall be erixtd and told by any sheriff or otner officer, by virtue of any writ of fieri heir, or other writ of execution, *nth crops shall nu long as the same shall remain upon the farm, be liable to the r. at which may accrue and ben sue due to the landlord after any such w tour, and sale, and to the remedies by distress and otherwine for recovery of such rent, and that notwithrtandine any bargain and rale or amignment which may bare been made or executed of such crops by any such abed/ or other officer. NIL 8. CRAWFORD theft moved that the went "Ire. land " be omitted from the preamble of the bill. He was of opinion that if the bill was applied to Ireland it would place the rights of the landlord and people in jeopardy. He could not support its third reading as regarded Ireland, as it would clash with a bill on which he was about to test the opinion of the hones. Mr. T. M'CULLAGII seconded the motion. Mr. HERBERT did not see how the bill if good for Eng land would not, as far u it went, be good for Ireland. He thought it inconsistent in the boo. member for Dundalk to vote for the third reading of the same bill last year and to oppose it out this occasion. He hoped, therefore, that the house would not allow the amendment of the hon. member for Rochdale to pass. Mr. M'CULLAGM said that Hit were necessary he could point oat several clauses in the present bill which differed widely from thosexontained in the bill of last year. But he did not wish to rest thehindication of the altered course he now deemed it his duty to pursue upset any nice distinction between the tenour of the two bills. He supported the amendment of his hon. friend (Mr. S. Crawford) because the circumstances of the country had, with reference to this question, greatly changed ; and he must be allowed to add, beanne:the hope" and fun with which his own mind had formerly been swayed with regard to it, had undergone a very great alteration. Lest year he owned that he was one of those who did not despair of seeing a practical settlement of this most important pies tion attem-ted by the government. He had even chug to the hope during the earlier part of the present session that something effectual might be dons. Day after day, however, had been suffered to pass, and the precious opportunity bad been lost for adjusting the great controversy that now rent society In Ireland, The best that could be said of the bill was that in England it would do no harm. But the people in Ireland were not at the present moment in the humour to be offered this miserable prescription of " spermaceti fur an inward bruise." As for assimilation, he would say that he believed a more hollow or absurd cant never had pre- Tilled. It was not many hours shift they had been stunned by a signal proof given in another plus that there was no intention whatever, so far as the party opposite were concerned, to yield any substantial right or franchise that would tend to assimilate the liberties of the two na tions.

And it ill became the hon. member for Kerry, who by his vote in that house bad encouraged others to commit the act to which he alluded, to taunt others with a want of faith in the delosion celled assi milation. After suffering the session to pass without one serious attempt to pass a substantial measure on the subject for Ireland, he could not help thinking that the unmeaning insertion of the name of that kingdom In a bill solely appli cable to England would be felt, by the majority of the Irish people, as something very like an insult and a mockery. (Hear, hear Mr. STAFFORD supported the bill, and deprecated the imam pursued by the hon. member for Dundalk. The tenantry of Ireland would at least au that the hoe, member for Kerry had endeavoured to gain something for them by =imitating as much as pounds the law of England and Ireland ; but the hon. member for Dundalk had protested agaiset any uslallation, and, despairing of a large measure, he bad refuted a small one. Mr 0. (IRBY said that the (pinion was whether this bill should be extended to Ireland, or whether that which the committee had decided should be ravened ? He saw no reason why this bill should sot be extended to Ireland. The object of the bill was that persons having limited agreements were to make thews biading on their successors. This was for the bandit of tines parsons, because it would encourage permanent Improvement. It was desirable to remove the obstacles Which existed In Ireland as well as in England.

THERE has never been a character so difficult to fill, or requiring so many high qualities and rare ad vantages, as that of an English statesman. There is none, we may add, to which is 83 universally paid the homage of admiration and respect. The annals of other countries record instances of successful minis ters, who have baffled the intrigues of a court, humbled the frowardness of an aristocracy, and adroitly handled the weakness of a monarch, and who have not o. ly accomplished these difficult tasks, but made use of the power so hardly won to promote the interests and achieve the greatness of • their country. Hut with a representative assembly, whose confidence was to he gained a popular opinion, whose exigencies were to be satisfied—the task of a constitutional minister is far different. The examples of BARNEVELDT and the ])E WITTS attest its danger. And the instances of court ministers, who have tried to play the part of constitutional ones, like TALLETRAND, and proved utterly milk for it, show what very d•fferent kind of talent, of experience, and of training is required for the statesman of a free people. If the requisites for political eminence in England be not the same as in other countries, neither are they the same with us at present and in the past. In the last century politics were a theory rather than a science, a sentiment more than a calculation. Liberty was a theme for oratorical display; but questions of domestic policy were superficially treated, and indeed eansidered quite ancillary to views of foreign policy. The country WAS like a youth, bent on external influence and display, caring little few the cultivation or maintenance of that more important part of hu manity which lies within. An English staesman of the last century was almost uncognisant of either a social or an economic question. Far different is it now. However national vanity, susceptibility, and pride may be got up and worked upon for a crisis or a debate, we in general and in the even tenour of our lives, care little e hat influence we may have over Europe, or what place we may fill in its estimation. Our objects of interest are around us, in the frame-work of society, its relations!, its industry, its sufferings, i's em barrassments, and its crimes. In fathoming the depth, ascertaining the currents, and studying the nature of that inland sea, a British statesman has sufficient to occupy him. And fortunately for England, British statesmen did spring up within it who felt that such was the necessity and the demard of the times, and who directed their who'e attention from the shew and oratorical department of politics to the great y business questions of an industrious people. This may seem the commencement of an essay, but we know of no better preface to considering the cha racter of that statesman to whose bid of death all eyes and hearts are at this moment directed. If not the first public man who discerned that the politics of England would henceforth chiefly lie in this path, Sir ROBERT PEEL was certainly the moat eminent , and influential man who flung himself into it. And more credit is due to him for this, from the circum i stance of his having been bred, and having risen ' to office, in that old routine tory party, to whom " sufficient for the day was the evil thereof;' and who were contented to carry on the affairs of a i great nation in the very moment of its utmost power, under the lead of an ADDINGTON or a PERCEVAL, ' with the profundity of a BATHURST, and the financial genius of a VANSITTAIIT. • Front the close of the war and from the day I when it had ceased to absorb all effort and I attention, Mr. PEEL turned hie mind to Ties ' tions of internal and industrial improvement. His ' first undertaking was the reform of the currency, in his fathoming of which question he was placed in I wintact with the perhaps superior, and certainly more leisure-fed, minds of eminent men of the whig party. I Struck with the views, he did not shrink from adopt ' ing and carrying them against the earnest protests of his family and the selfish interests of a class which • formed the great parliamentary stay of the tones. It • was carried, however, by a compromise, and must i have mainly emboldened the statesman to conceive ' and accomplish at a future day other great changes i ' and reforms. The subsequent history of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S life is indeed but that of the gradual conversion of the tory administrator into the thinking, inquiring, and provident reformer. He carried emancipation against the prejudices of his party ; he accepted reform ; and he beanie a late but avowed and zealous convert to the principles of free trade, the realization of which at once ruined his power and crowned his fame. Few men have had ss immense a personal influence upon events, and no one has had an influence so salutary. For if any statesman can boast so to have anticipated the popular demands and the popular wants of a disturbed and anarchic era, as to render revolution impossible, by conferring its benefits and avoiding its evils, that statesman is Sir ROBERT PEEL. We can easily conceive, however, that the backward party, whose prejudices he forsook for great objects, the utility of which they deny, should accuse S ir Rouen of treachery. Although we think that he may be fully defended, we own that the ta s k i s no t to be performed with a few arguments, or in a few sentences. One of the peculiarities in the change which we have described as having taken place from the statesmanship of the past century to the political habits of this is, that the leader of a party is no longer its social head. Ho no longer rallies his friends round his table orhis hearth, however he msy bums.- fully marshal them in and behind his parliamentary bench. Prime ministers need to be gay courtiers and boon companion.. At present they uro thinking and solitary men. Their influence over their party is thus the Influence more of distant admiration and respect than of intimate relation and evilly day friendship. A minister, therefore, the workings of whose mind has wrought in him an important change and a new conviction, cannot hope to communicate it. And hence the phenomenon whisk wo so often see in political life of parties, like thstevered worms, with their bends Moving in one direction and their tails in another. We oesninenosal by observing how may and how rare were the qualities sad advantages requisite for the English statesman. Fora prime minister the re quisites are indeed mast rare. B much so, that even in the full rants of public life at present a man could with difficulty lay his finger upon any, save the present prime minister and his great rival, to whose handsome would, without trembling, see committed the guidance of the state. Had the vote of Saturday morning been other than it was, this would have been now a cri tical consideration. Bat even as it is, the loss of such a mind and influence as those of Sir Rointar Palm to public life, is an event of incalculable result and of deep and melancholy importances. Tne House of Lords have again refused, by a ma jority of twenty-two, the claim of the people of Ire land to the same rights of representation as those which the people of England and Scotland enjoy. It will be recollected that upon the second reeding of the Franchise Bill, a long debate took place, in the course of which Lord STANLEY admitted that his advice to his party had been to reject it altogether. But that use and seemly counsel having been over ruled, he intimated big intention ofseeking compensation for the unwilling forbearance from mischief then im posed upon bim, by using every opportunity that might arise in committee to maim and mutilate the bill. True to Lis threat, the reckless leader of the reactioniats commenced his work of insult and in justice on the second clause of the bill. As seat up from the Commons, a franchise of 81., tested by rating and conditional upon the actual payment of rates by the occupier, was conferred upon counties in Ireland. The ground on which this amount had been fixed on by ministers wu simply this, that the propor tion of tic:tore to population in the rural districts of Great Britain varying from 12 to 20 per cent.—a higher rated franchise than 81. would not give to Ireland an equally popular constituency. In confuta tion of the electoral estimates which bad been relied on throughout the discussions in the lower house, the tory peers said not a word. Lord DESART, the mover of the hostile amendment, spoke a dull pamphlet on the occasion to a drowsy auditory ; and in the course of his ill.connected common-places hoz irded a calcu lation which was meant to show that an 81. rated franchise would create a constituency in the counties of Ireland more numerous than in those of England. But nothing can in point of fact be more fallacious. The juvenile senator appears to have copied his figures out of a parliamentary return of the gross number of rateable tenements, without having the slightest suspicion that between rateably distinct tenements and occupiers qualified to vote, there exists I no more identity than between the gross cumber of hereditary peers and the actual cumber that possess any political capacity. The number of tenements in Irish counties rated at and over 8/. may be 310,000; 'bat from these one-filth at least must be deducted for double holdings by the same individuals, and for such as are possessed by women, minors, and persons from various causes incapacitated from exercising the Buffs age. Besides all tbia there is to be deducted a very large per centage on account of the depreciation that has taken place in the rateable value of farms and dwellings since 1846, prior to which nearly all the valuations in Ireland were mace; so that in truth Lord lons Russell. was very much nearer to the mark when he stated in the House of Commons three months ago when contending against the Staolcyites who strove to obstruct its progress there, that the bill as it stood would give about 200,000 voters to the 32 counties of Ireland. But what do arguments avail ? The avowed pur pose of the monopolist peers Is to frustrate, at what ever tiek cr cost, a measure which would enable the long oppressed and rack-rented fat mere ti Ireland to return men to parliament who would vote for retrenchment Ind religious equality, and security to the hard toiling man for the fruits of his industry. Between an alien oligarchy and the people of Ireland there is no one , idea in common ; and should any accident or intrigue precipitate a dissolution of parliament, this bigoted , and unscrupulous faction count upon fraudulently seizing on fully two-thirds of the Irish representa- , tion. By fair means they well know that this is im possible; they are ready, therefore, to attempt it by foul ; and a fouler expedient they cannot resort to , than that of which Lords ST INI.V.Y and linotteltam made nee of v, ithout stint or compunction, namely, the raising of the fanatical cry against catholicism. Fail ing to kindle the least show of enthusiasm among their followers by their dreary political diatribes, the wretched resource of religious prejudice alone re- , maintd, and of that they did not hesitate to avail themselves. How this shabby and shame:teaexpe dient may have silen•ly aided in securing the result , desired we cannot tell. But sure we are that pub:ic opinion in this country will upon the earliest fitting opportunity, be expressed in terms of disgust not to he mistaken at the course which the allied Puseyites and protectionists have thus pursued. We trust that ministers will urelinchingly perse vere in taking the sense of the upper hey.ee on every detail of the bill. Let its opponents have rope enough by all means. They seem in a humour to take it, and it were a pity to stint them. Let them on every point and in every respect prove to the country what they are. While the bid is in committee we shall devote ourselves to the task of chronicling their deeds and directing popular attention to each new incident of the performance. The effect even for the time will, no doubt, be useful. Then, when the work is finished, and the measure, rifled of whatever ' good it contained, is sent back to the House of Commons, the proper time will have ar rived for the representatives of the people to prove their determination not to abandon the sacred cause in which they are embarked, and by restoring the bill to a suitable and effective condition, to compel the hereditary foes of the industrious millions to reject it again, if they are so madly minded. Let them ; the friends of democratic progress will have little reason to grieve if they do. It will only serve to rouse the listless from their slumbers, and to wake the credu lous from their dreams. But let no man who either wishes to see the greatest attainable amount of political good wrung from these churlish monopolists of power, or who, looking to the ultimate consequences of their stupid obstinacy, desires to see them self-divested of what ever portion of respect they are still imagined to possess,—let no man who is true to the popular cause, tolerate an abandonment of the Irish Franchise Bill. Our insulted kinsmen on the other side of the channel must not be left in any doubt as to who are heartily with them in the assertion of their rights, and who are really against them. A majority of sixty-eight in the united commons of the empire sent this mea , sure to the Lords, and it is not to bo endured , that such a body as the latter are to be allowed to bully and browbeat the national assembly of the realm into relinquishing their purpose and resolve. The very idea is preposterous. For peace sake the government have already given way in some points, and we do not say that they erred in doing so. But a frarchiee bill for Ireland the House of Lords, de spite of all their hectoring, will be glad to pass, ere the session closes, if ministers do their duty, and the liberal representatives of the three kingdoms do not shrink from theirs. THE EXHIBITION OF 1851.—Yesterday a parlia mentary paper was printed, containing a letter addressed to the commissioners of the exhibition of 1951; to the Lords of the Treasury, enclosing a memorandum as to the site of the exhibition building in Hyde-park. This letter, coupled with the discussion in the Rouse of Commons on Monday night, will put the public in the possession of all the points up to Thursday, when the subject will be again 'brought forward. The commissioners give their reasons for selecting Hyde-park, and state that the building to be erected will be removed by the Ist Nov. The area of Hyde-park is 357 acres; Keating ton-gardene, 290; Regent'apark, 403; St. James's-park, 83.; Green-park, 71; Victoria-park, 160 ; Greentrieb-park. 174 ; making a total of 1,669 acres ; while only twenty acres are proposed to be taken for the purposes of this i zhibition. The commissioners add, that the possibility that the bringing the t nhibition into Hyde-park should be considered as an interference with the enjoyment of that park by the public has never entered their minds. They have, on the contrary. always intended it as a means of recreation and lntelltctual esy'yment for the greatest portion of her Majesty's subjects, aed they have hitherto had reason to believe that it has been so regarded by the country in general.
