LORD WESTBURY ANRONAGE. D FAMILY PAT great the Deily News.) Tarn last days of the Pasliement of 1859 will be those by which in history it will be reins/Owed. Adoom such as onoe in a century vindicates at once tie supreme power and the outraged moral sense of lb* people of lingland has been, by the vole of mg Commons, pronounced upon the formai isbjed in the realm. Thera can be no desire in joy mind, if even the attempt were possible, to exaggerate the weight of the sentence or to pursue with vindictive feeling the fallen Minister of the Crown on whom it has been passed. Bat that we may draw profit for the future from this striking balance of justice, it is necessary to discriminate prerissly the motives and the meaning which it embediss. To find these, we mast not merely like the literal sense of the words by which the swore was expressed. We must turn from these technicalities of form to the spirit which induced &sir adoption ; and, • lawyer "pounds the dry jedpient of • oourt by help of the speech of tie judge in pronouncing it, we mast find in the oba racked the discussion in the House of Commons the explanation of the real purpose of its sentence of want of confidence in the administration of his office by the late COANC/1101. It is, indeed, ob vious at once that " 'amity of practice, and want "of caution in granting pensions to public " offioers against whom charges had been made," Mob is all that the motion carried imputes • the late CriaNcitu.on, and which occurred only in two instances, would never, standing alone, have drawn down so crushing a punishment. Had awe been ground for explaining them as mere Multi of careless haste or of inopportune good nature, the penalty of dismissal would never have ham hated upon them. But it was impossible to isolate these, the only acts actually proved, from association with other sots which explained Line. As before a jury the verdict is simply of guilty or not guilty of the legal offence charged, but yet it is impossible to prevent both judge and jury from taking into consideration the prisoner's previous character ; so the House of Commons, tDough it convicted only of laxity in granting pensions, debated and decided the question on broader grounds. It passed in review, with lbe aid of the speakers both on the ids of the attack and defence, the whole or of Lord WZIMIIIIIIeII administration of public offioes in his gift. It contemplated the [ influences by which he suffered himself to be rounded, the jobbery end corruption that tin misedly took place among those by whose lug lions he was to some extent guided, the notorious °Won by which most of his appointments had ma dictated. Against these unquestionable facts was hopeless for his professional advocates so legs the equally irrelevant merit of his services the public. It was useless to insist that he was i eager law reformer, when such foul practices ere found to flourish among those under his most mediate protection. It was idle to speak of his el for the purification of public offices when the tot his reiterated appointment of a son, known, he admitted, for fifties years, to be of bed tracker, to socoessive posts of the most confiden t nature, rose up in judgment against him. It a vain to plead that be had sacrificed some eccle stiesl patronage when the House could not t know that every lucrative office in his courts d been given, regardless of merit, to a son, other-in•law, or a bosom friend's brother. Within )derste and decent limits the system might, of its being so common, have yet little longer escaped reproof or serious iticiam. But Lord WICSTBI: kV exceeded me customary limits, and when to that 'fiance of public opinion he added the overt set granting pensions as a condition of instant signation, and of filling up the offices thus pro- ored, in one instance with it son, in another with man who had bribed his son, it became impossible or any independent voice to be lifted to excuse his rms. He falls, not because in two oases be had omitted an indiscretion, bat because on the thole he had used his patronage for purposes of may advancement instead of for the benefit of public. This is the moral, not of the vote, but every speech by which that vote was enforced. We cannot but think that this great lesson will tbe without its fruits. By so eminent an ex• ople the principle is inculcated that the gift of iblie offioes is a public trust. It is true that pub opinion has hitherto winked at many betrayals that trust. It has seen without remark the why of the judicial ermine defaced by family mites ; it has recognised that great political nonsges might bestow the offices in their power their relatives, their friends, or their footmen, bile spurning patient merit ; it has allowed to et without more than remonstrance the granting, a right reverend father, rich livings to his carnal &sr than to his spiritual WWI. But it is soma iog to have aroused public opinion, by excess of ON, to the sense that these things are wrong. hit Lord Wurrsvar has fallen for cannot natter be practised by a smeller man with- d• fear mai trembling. ft is proved, by a nrcely exampled punishment on the greatest of abject% to be vicious in principle. It can ot comfortably be indulged hereafter by men is eminent. The precedent stands recorded pint them, and it will no longer be possible fee lam to say that they knew not that it was aoooonted in offence. Gradually we may hope a sounder Public sentiment will fortify their new-found virtue. [II these matters we make progress only from age 1 0 age. Now-a-days no judge is bribed. No ;:hancellor now sells the appointments in his gift r._ _ money paid into his Land. No public moron t v makes market of his official knowledge the Stock Exchange. Yet once in oar tory these vices were common enough, and re scarce reprobated by public opinion. But in tein scandalous instances public opinion was at Oh aroused, and condign punishment of cowl ms offenders marked its new-wakened moral as. So BACON became a warning, never again 6 4 against the corruption of judges. Bo Chanotdor MACCLINIFIRLD WU made all WA that the sale of the offiess in his court could *huger be tolerated by the advancing moral sose of the times, and never since then hu the glace been repeated. And so let us hope it will ▪ now with the system of appointing relations Puronal friends to offices for which worthier Mr rosy be found. It is a fault, we may grant, 111 •Pinwous than those for which Lord Wier- M in's equally illustrious predecessors suffered a warier punishment.

But the lineman psalm bat something like four out of every twenty years io England, and ought at least to have • head dress more suited to the climates be has to feat than this black lambskin cap which has just been Invented for his torture. Canada is far too cold for such a headdress—the Guards wheat they went there after the Trent beeiness had to be provided with a more suitable headdress than their present bearskin—the West Indies much too hot ; Ceylon, India, Malts, and even the Cape the same. In fact, to wear such headdreas with impunity • climate ought to be ordered on purpose to suit it, for at present there is certainly none known where this can be done. Can it be in the appearanoe of the black lambskin that the charm lies I Tastes differ; but for a soldier to wear at home, in pesos, what be would be obliged to lay aside when he took the field, seems somewhat of an incongruity. To be well dressed • soldier should be clad in a workmanlike way, and to be this he should be ready to move at any moment to any part of the world, and face any climate. We do not clothe footmen in leather leggings and velveteen shooting jackets, nor has • gamekeeper yet been seen in shorts and silk stockings. And yet the British in fantry soldier—who has to do duty alike in Quebec and Rangoon, Malta and Meerut, Birmingham and Bangalore,-is quite as absurdly equipped for his work with a black lambskin cap " in the shape not " unlike the bearskins of the Guards," as if • waiter at the London Tavern and a whipper-in of the Pytchley were made to exchange coats, breeches, and the rest of their professional garment'. There should be an end put to these worse than neelees changes. Alterations which lessen the weight the soldier has to carry, or that otherwise add to his usefulness in the field, are always welcome, but this worse than useless military millinery work can only be • source of congratulation to clothiers and outfitters. The French army have a much plainer uniform than ours, but being simple, in expensive, and adapted to any climate, it is much more pleasing. With them the clothing is made le suit the soldier, not the soldier his clothing. For a time we seemed to follow in the was I 4 direction, but now it would appear as if we were , ,going back again to the days when the last thing 4 thought of in dressing the army was the usefulness , of each article which the men had to wear, or its , adaptability to the climates in which our troops had to serve. Wpm theD•4o , ilreps.) Fsw men er whirrs fat kiNll - in diem oso imagine what immense soma of sacoey eau be •Xpended upon *Miners' and talon' bills by those who have • teats that wag. It by no moons follows that those who spend meet em clothing look either the nested or are the MOM becomingly attired amongst their fellows. On the contrary, great expenditure in coati, waistcoats, and boomers, or in drum, shawls, and bonnets, le, as an almost universal rule, accompanied by an amount of vulgarity in the selection of oolours, or et " loads's*" in patterns or shape, whioh pro salaam in unmistakable terms againat the caste of the wearer. To dregs well, with taste, and in clothes suitable to the meow and occupation of the wearer, is an accomplishment. No one of either sex can purchase taste. To • wigs degree it can be acquired by study ; but, as • general ride, • vulgar-minded person is vulgar in hie or her des, and no amount of money can make one who is vulgarly clothed look like a lady or gentle man. But in dressing, as in other acts, there are classes and degrees of fitness and the contrary, as also times, and places, and arsons, when sod where what is seemly on one occasion should be altered or changed. Thus the black hat of re spectability, and the frock coat of conventionality, would be as much out of place on • Highland moor or • Swiss mountain as a grey wide-awake and brown shooting jacket would be absurd in Pall-mall. The Park and the City, the office and the farm, the hunting field and the railway train, have each an appropriate and seemly costume, which men of taste learn to adopt, as it were, by intuition. In short, the art of clothing himself properly comes naturally to • gentleman, just as the reverse seems to be the birthright of the "gent." And if propriety in civil dress has to be observed, bow much more is the art of mili taryclothing • study—and one which seems to have made but little progress in England. There was • time when our troops seemed clothed for show and not for use. Leather straps, heavy shakos, tight tail coats, trousers in which the men could hardly walk—much leas run—end shoes made to fit by rule of thumb, would be the description in general terms of an English infantry soldier's clothing before the Crimean war. Latterly—within the lest four or five years—there has been • gradual but very decided change for the better. The tunic took the place of the tail coat; the stock was made smaller, less stiff, and more endurable ; the trimmers were easier to wear and to move in ; the regulation boots were made to fit more correctly ; and, in abort, it began to strike our military authorities that the uniform was made for man, not the man for his uniform. A great deal remained to be done, but still much was done. The headdress, which is the chief and most essential article of a soldier's clothing, was altered latterly so as to be wearable in almost any climate with comfort. In place of a stiff, unpliable, heavy leather shako, we adopted a cap Of a neat French pattern, made entirely of cloth, which was one of the greatest boons ever conceded to our infantry soldiers, and must have saved many a heart-ache in many a weary long march. This new shako is not only neat and soldierlike to look at, but fits the head compactly, and is hardly heavier than an ordinary hat. So mush credit is due to the Horse Guards for • decided step in the right direction.

But having thus moved forwards, why should the same authority now step back t We learn from a military contemporary, who is usually well informed on these subjects, that the Fusilier regi ments of the line are to be " relieved of the shako, "and are to have issued to them a new headdress, "of which the material is to be lambskin, the colour " black, the size smaller than the Buster headdress, " ' '• ' _ _ "and the shape not unlike the bearskin caps of "the Guards." Now, considering that the eight Fusilier corps—the bth, 7th, 21st, 23rd, 87th, 101st, 102nd, and 103rd—take their tour of duty in the colonies like other regiments of the line, and that of the eight, five, if not six, are now serving in India, this new development of mili tary tailoring is simply astounding. Imagine for • moment a soldier that has to do duty at Banga lore or Belgatim, standing sentry during the hot winds in • headdress which is "lambskin" as to material, "black" as to colour, and " in shape not "unlike the bearskin caps of the Guards." Of two things one; either for the future these gallant Fusilier corps must carry about with them a change of headdresses, and every soldier when he changes quarters be accompanied with a band box containing the cap which is not suited for the meson in which he moves ;or else be must lay down his life for his bearskin, and nobly face apoplexy, brain fever anddeath ender • tropical min, rather than forsake his black lambskin which is "in shape not unlike the bearskin caps of the " Guards." Lot us look at the wisdom of this truly wonder ful change in a light nearer home. There have been some hot days lately, days in which even the most sobarminded paterfamilias was glad to ex change his respectable black for a lighter white hat, and in which no sane man living half-a-dozen miles out of town wore anything heavier than the lightest of " billyoocks," or the most flexible of straws. Imagine in our English dog-days having to walk ten or fifteen miles a day along a hot dusty road, the head covered even with an every day black hat. But if this had to be dose in India, under the sun of Bengal or Madras—in such a march as we read of lately, when of • hundred and twenty artillerymen thirty fell vic tims to the climate of the jungles and the muddle-1 • headedness of the Bombay military authorities what would be the sufferings of those who had to bear the infliction ? And if, in place of an ordi nary black hat, the civilian were condemned to wear a " headdress of which the material is " lambskin, the colour black, and the shape not " unlike the bearskin caps of the Guards," would be not in preference ask to be sentenced to a couple of years' penal servitude ? From breaking stones at Portland, breakfasting upon oatmeal gruel, and dining upon six ounces of meat, there is an escape some day, sooner or later, Such • rigime does not kill even the most fastidious, however it may worry him. But to do duty under a tropical sun in a headdress such as we have described, must be the prelude to fever, the hospital, and the grave. In questioning the acts of our military autho- I rities it is often difficult to define where the power of the War-office ends and that of the Horse Guards begins; but in matters of dress we believe the Commander-in-Chief foe the time being is supreme. Has his Royal Highness counted the coat at which—supposing for a moment that the black lambskin cap looks well upon the wearer— soldiers can be made to look what nurescrniaids would call " nice " as to what they weer wpm their heath f To which of the many olinmiso whips our intenty soldier has to do duty, would this twills sultabb f In Segland the Aster is km welk Mid the remmer--wben we get awy.—siisah too hot for oath a hat.

In an address marked by feeling and good taste the Lord Chase.llor has peomeally aanouseed his resigsa tics to the House of LordaikFrom the rowed and sym pathy with which he was hawed to his lordship may learn how little there to of private or political animosity is the rands of those who bane hem meetly compelled to give impresario to °Oakes adverse to him. There is seeteinly in this seentey no desire to pull down these who have risen to caucus. No people are more free horn envy than our own, sad if there be a character whose advancement is looked upon without • shade of ill-feelleg it is the able ad hard-working lawye r who, after good service in the House of Oonunees, receives the high rewards of his prefemioa. Among these who listened to Lord Westbury yenteeday, or who took part in the debate on Mooday, there an, we am sum few who do set feel deep regret that &soh • blow should have fallen oo inch • man. It is needles', however, to speak farther of this matter. Only the *lmaged ocavietion that the honour of the country must be Abdicated would have Slade such en amembly as the Home of Commons cen sure a Lord Chancellor. The unhappy snots which have led to the Chasoellar's resigestion cannot be noodled ; they mance be deprived of their un favourable character. All that Lord Westbury can ask of his countrymen is that they shall now as far am pos sible (ergot them, so, at least, as to judge his fature career without prejudice &cived from aa unfortunate past. This oblivion the public will be glad to ertend to the transact. floss el the last few months. Indeed, the advice of Lord Wsstbt wilimgase bas been to some cutest the cause that the awing against him bare mad* se deep sad palatal an impression. Lord Westbury esplaibed at length the NIMBI which induced him to hold office up to the present time, and after • committee of either boos, as well as the voice of the country, had aocumd him. This explanation is quite iatelliglble, nor ma we say that there may eel be valid someone why • ma in high pedlars shssld at times dieragard the popular voice. Bat in this case we think the Chancellor was ill advise', He tells the home, ma Lord Palmseetwa told the Commons on Tuesday, that what the lint charges were made Nairn hint he desired to resign. "My lords," he says, " I be lieve that the holder of the Great lisehregtrt never to be in the position of an scared pence, &ad, such unfortunately being this awe, for mylows part I hilt it dos to the greet aloe that I hold that I aboold retire from it and meet any accusation in the character of • private persoc." But, in deference to the opinions of his oolleagoes, who thought that • too ready resignation might lead to the encouragement of charges spinet public men, the Lord Chancellor retained aim This principle, however, which might be monad as rapids the early phase of the inquiry, could hardly apply to a period when the °plaice of Doe of the HOUNIS of Parliament bad bees given. The Ohanseller, we think, would have done wall if be bad resigned diet the rescinding of Mr. Edmunds's pmnstee, mad anomaly he (eight not to have held Aloe • day after the report of the sousraittee or. the Leeds Bankruptcy Court. As low as a man retains office he speaks at • disadvantege. The eminence at which he stands makes him • mark for his opponenta, while it WOMB his own power of repelling them. If the Cheat:teller had lo aded on resigning even • week ago he would stand in a better pontion than at present. The act of =digestion itself diem= ressetruent, and from the moment it is per something like • reaelioa in the parliamentary and popular mind sets is, It is strange that a roan so sesta and experienced as Lord Weather, should not have seen that the advice of his colleagues was more in acondasee with the supposed convenience of the ministry than with his own laterals and homier. But these mere details will be soon forgotten. What will remain is the recollection of the country will be that a vary eminent Chancellor resigned is oonsupierioe of faults is his administration. It Is in the power of Lord West. bury by degrees to wenn tie asamembraaies which his countrymen have of this ask sad dually to win it oat altogether, mid plan in its stead the image of an able I tape sad politiciaa present is parliament and daily ren dering serviced io the contry. The ideount which Lord Westbury was a►le to give of his judicial labours dhow s how inn the paths fns by his retirement: and there is me on acquainted, in my dawn, with tbe Chamellor's dirties who will sot admit that they Inn beau ably end vigorously performed.
