Strange to say, it seems that the noble lord found no sympathy on the part of his colleagues. They did not agree with the policy which he recommended. They de cided on a course totally adverse to that which he wished to sanction. , They decided on a course no less important 'Jima the prosecution of that war which in his opinion ought to have terminated. (Hear.) The noble iced accedes to the suggestions of his colleagues. He remains in the Cabinet of which he had been a member during the nego tiations. He remains in that Cabinet the Minister of peace, a war member of that Cabinet, and he recommends a vigorous prosecution of that war in his place in the House of Commons. (Hear, hear.) The reasons which the noble lord has given for this extraordinary course ap pear to me no less singular than his conduct. This is no slight question. An honourable gentleman who preceded me has fairly said that it may be considered the most important of all political questions. There is hardly a member of this house who would place any mea sure to regulate our internal condition, however high might be its aim, in the same category as the question whether peace shall be accomplished or whether the war shall be prosecuted. The noble lord has told us that he considered it his duty, notwithstanding it was his convic tion that peace might be obtained, and ought to be ob tained—be has told us that he considered it his duty to support a policy of war, as an eminent member of that Cabinet of peace ; and he has rested the vindication of his course on a principle which would rather, according to his own version, raise his character as a public man—as a man who by so acting had sacrificed his feelings to his public duty. Now, I entirely differ with the view which the noble lord has taken on that subject. I think the ques tion of peace or war, especially under the circumstances in which the country finds itself placed, ought not to be an open question. I cannot conceal my surprise that to night we learn that peace and war are open questions in the existing Administration. But what I want to ask the house to-night, after these extraordinary revelations of a Minister, is this—is the house for peace or war ? I assume we are all of opinion that there is very little chance of ob taining a satisfactory peace or prosecuting a successful war if in the very bosom of the Cabinet such contrary opinions are held, and that the most eminent members of the coun cils of her Majesty are influenced by opinions so contrary on questions so vital. (Hear, hear.) Now, that I think is the question which the house ought fairly to entertain. Whether we shall have peace or war must at all times, and especially in a free country, be the subject of controversy; but I think all must agree in this, that whether we are to have peace or war, her Majesty's Ministers ought to be unanimous upon the issue; otherwise I cannot see any chance of efficient and vigorous action in either respect or for either result, if the present state of affairs con tinue, such as it has been described to us with startling candour by the noble lord the Secretary of State, in revelations which I doubt no t w ill l ong li nger in the ear of the people of this country. But the reason why I rose on this occasion was in consequence of some observations which fell from the right honourable member for Manchester (Mr. M. Gibson), and some other hon. members, and which I think require some comment. The right hon. gentleman dwelt upon the singular incon sistency, the alarming contrariety, between the secret and the avowed opinions of the Government. He very properly touched upon the want of confidence and the disgust which must be created in the public mind, when they find one course of policy recommended, for example, at Vienna, and another apparently advocated by the Government in this house. (Hear.) I want to know how we are to de scribe such a state of affairs but by such expressions as "ambiguous language" and "uncertain conduct?" (Hear.) And permit me to observe that some six weeks ago, hav ing learned that we were on the eve of concluding a peace which I believed to be impolitic, unsatisfactory, and, what is more, impracticable—and hearing, at the same time, that the war was to be conducted on a larger scale than before, and with a still more vigorous support than heretofore— learning that in cne place there was a successful plenipo tentiary, who was to bring home a treaty to be ratified, and finding the leader of the house apparently promising to the country an interminable vista of hostilities, I thought it my duty to ask the house whether, under these circum stances, it was not desirable to put an end to that " ambi guous language" and "uncertain conduct." The future has vindicated the course which I then pursued—the pre seat position of the house has vindicated the course which I then pursued—the extraordinary speech of the Secretary of State to-night has vindicated the course which I then pursued. (Hear, hear.) There is not a member of the house who does not now feel that the country has suffered from that " ambiguous language" and " uncertain con duct," and I think very first gentleman who went into the lobby against the expression of that truth was the right hon. member for Manchester. (Cheers and laughter.) In what a position does the House of Commons, nearly at the end of the session, find itself ! Why, in the teeth of evidence which could not be resisted—on the eve of coming events, of which the Government ought, to have been cognisant—the house is in a position of un certainty and ambiguity, having lost every opportunity or vindicating its position and the policy it ought to have pursued. (Hear.) I said I had reason to believe that a peace was abcut to be concluded at Vienna which wee im politic, unsatisfactory, and which would ultimately be found impracticable. For that reason I was opposed to such a peace, and wished the house to interfere to prevent it. I do not say that I am the advocate of those intermi nable hostilities of which we have beard—l do not say that I am the advocate of a war to be waged without au end and without a purpose. On the contrary, I have never shrunk from laying down the principles on which a lasting peace might he obtained, which will secure the indepen dence of that part of the world which we look upon as the main element of the political balance we uphold. I be lieve such a peace to be practicable, but I do not think it could be obtained by the plan which the noble lord so easily accepted and so cordially sanctioned at Vienna. But I want to know what is the position in which this country finds itself with regard to the prosecution of the war in consequence of the confessions of the Minister to-night ? Some eighteen months ago, or less, when the whole country and the house were complaining of great neglect in the administration of the country iu the preparing for the w ar then impending, wh a t was th e excuse made or the period which had been wasted ? It was this—that we were se curing the co-operation of those great allies without which there was little prospect of the war being waged with suc cess. Now I want to know what probability there is of tohbetai admissionsni obtaini ng gthe made assistance b y the oft he Governmentgreat German to-night. powers, How after can we press Austria now? How can you expect Prussia to join you, when you have confessed to Europe that the terms proposed by Austria upon which peace might be obtained are Just and proper ? Granted that the colleagues of the noble lord are opposed to him in the views he takes of the terms, may not Prussia and Austria, on the other band, turn round and say, "We do not at all agree with you in the necessity of making any renewed efforts against Russia, es p ec i a lly as th e statesman whom you sent to Vienna to negotiate the terms of peace has assented to the terms that were offered ?" Nor is that the only effect of the present policy of the Government, be cause when we come again to enter into negotiations with Russia, she may take, as the test of our demands, the very plans which have been sanctioned and approved of by the noble lord, and therefore, whether we look to our alliance with Austria, whether we look to our negotiations with the enemy, or whether we look to the influence it is likely to have upon public opinion, I think the debate of to night is calculated to have a most injurious effect. (Hear.) But let us look at the position of the noble lord himself in reference to this question. If we had employed some dis tinguished diplomatist not connected with politics in the Government, the effect would not have been so embarrass. ing. Because be might have formed his own opinion of the matter, and yet that opinion would be open to exception on the part of the Ministry who had employed him, but here the case was widely different ; here the plenipoten tiary is a member of the Cabinet, a most prominent mem ber of the Cabinet, and when he went to Vienna he did not go there with strict instructions. He may have had formal instructions of one sort or other, but the noble lord went there with an intimate acquaintance with the views, the mind, and the policy of the statesmen whom he had left behind in the Cabinet, and with whom he had acted for years past. Therefore when the noble lord accepted the proposition of Count Buol, it was not merely in the character of an English plenipotentiary that he accepted them, but it was in the capacity of the Minister of then, what that he accepted the propositions. (Hear.) Well, then, what is the result of all this ? What has been the object of the war? What have we gained by it? lam not going now to detail what to my mind ought to be the object of the war. Every member has some notion or idea of his own upon that point • but Ministers, in accepting the pro positions of Austria, practically recognised the just ness of the opinion which holds that they are not justified in cat rying on the war any further; and, if that be the case, I ask you with what chance of success can such a Cabinet appeal to the energies of the nation to support them ? How can you expect that the million will support you when they know that the scheme, the object you have in view, is not worth the sacrifice you call upon them to make ? The object you are struggling for is a mere phantom, and, to my mind, nothing will give greater sorrow to the nation at this moment than to find that ministers are carrying on a war which, by their showing, they thought was perfectly unnecessary six months ago. (Hear, hear.) Well, thee, I want to know why the noble lord's colleagues did not ratify his labours when he returned to England from Vienna. Generally speaking, I think under ordinary cir cumstances the First Minister has a right to exercise great reserve in the expression of his opinions, both as to the policy of the Government and his own conduct ; but when we find that a member of a Cabinet has been sent out to negotiate peace, and when we find their plenipotentiary, with his labours not ratified, remaining a meeiber of the Cabinet, then, I say, we have right to expect from the Government some explanation of the reasons which in duced the noble lord not to accept the result of the labours of his colleague. Were the terms not sufficient? That would be a fair objection; but you must tell us what is the sacrifice to be made by Russia that will satisfy you. If you think the terms not sufficient, without binding your selves to details, you ought to tell us generally the con ditions which you would find more satisfactory. Unless you tell that to the people of England, I say it is totally impossible to carry on this war with the vigour that is ne cessary to insure success. If you are making the question of peace or war merely the means for maintaining your selves in office, you will destroy the spirit of the country that now sustains you in carrying on the war; but it, on the oth.er hand, you are favourable to peace on certain terms, you ought at once to tell us that the noble lord' greatly exerted himself to accomplish the object so much desired, but he was so jealous for the good cause in which he was embarked that he made admissions which we consider hostile to the interests of the country, and therefore we could not support him. (Hear, hear.) The noble lord at the head of the Government should have taken that course, and he might say, "It is painful to us to make this admission, but we must do our duty to the country, and we shall not be satisfied unless the power of Russia is very materially reduced." But then, unfortunately, if the Premier were to say that, the noble nimss ttemany struggl e sgonaßgn l ae o l re7 r yt dot the es h b g e nit suha l itt e si c ott r upo e se t hb a t aehc r s y i tasbhb o etei f oennee S hnt set. end of t t e l ocoiHfen w gets o ahhe u re(n. l i d : boa rfg p eNe r vatd o kho b liii anins,biltt important up ofd n or, ttfdhah so y e t G he ov e e n r d nm e f e Governments Is Ministrythis to b that e was the end t o p o u f t the ths rgreatright h t i t n o a bn n in the right place 9 question of peace or war Is this to be the end of it, that the that t party u considerationmutumultuous u s ad • sacrificed aret 0 baifi to e ailhlt.hat the become a mere matter of turbulent o e e t b e th menaceein . interests assemblies s bm o l ifasjst of fcountry Downing street r sagacity of all the conferences at Sir G.
