THE AUSTRIAN RETREAT. VIENNA, Friday, June 10.—The official Austrian Correspondenze states, that the Austrian army is continuing its retreat beyond the river Adda, and its head-quarters are at present at Cavattigozzi, before Cremona. TURIN, Thursday.—The retreat of the Austrians continues. The enemy has evacuated Laveno, abandoning their materiel of war, and taking shelter on board of vessels in Swiss waters VICTOR EMNIANUEL TO THE LOMB ARDS. The following is a summary of the proclamation addressed by the King of Sardinia to the Lombards : " Victories have brought us to Milan, and your good wishes make my government stronger. Our inde dependence being secured, a regime both liberal and durable will be established. Every one has and our made great sacrifices to support our army volunteers. Italians have given proof of their worth and have gained the victory. The Emperor, our generous ally, the heir to the name and the genius of Napoleon, has been willing to command his heroic army to liberate Italy. Second on the battle field his magnanimous intentions, and show your selves worthy of the destinies of new Italy, after a century of suffering. VICTOR EMMANUEL." " Milan, June 9th." PROCLAMATION OF THE EMPEROR OF AUSTRIA TO THE TYROLESE "To my faithful subjects of the Tyrol and the Zorarlberg :—I call you to arms ! I summon you to show anew to your contemporaries and to posterity your fidelity, your bravery, your piety, and your religious enthusiasm! I call you to defend the most righteous cause for which sword was ever drawn ! Take in your practised hands the whole arm of your country ; form yourselves into corps of riflemen, and march to the frontier to meet the enemy ! Let your fidelity and your resolution serve as a rampart against the same enemy who has so often paid with his blood the invasion of your mountains ! It is to you that I confide the task of defending the frontiers of my dear country of the Tyrol against the enemy who has made himself the ally of revolt against the legitimate dominion established by God! If the enemy should menace them, you will make him feel that on those frontiers is a people who will know how, like their brethren, to combat and conquer for God and the country !—Given at my Head-quarters, at Verona, this First June, FRANCIS JOSEPH." MASS AT MILAN, TURIN, June 10.—The Emperor and the King attended mass, yesterday, in the Cathedral of Milan, during which a 7'e Deum was sung. Their Majes ties subsequently traversed the streets on horseback , followed by a numerous staff. The Imperial Guard was drawn up on both sides of the street, and the general enthusiasm was indescribable. NEUTRALITY OF GREECE In the Greek Chambers of Deputies the Minister for Foreign Affairs has stated that England and Russia had in the same terms recommended Greece to observe strict neutrality, and maintain public order. France, more explicit, had signified that if the least disturbance should break out she would be Obliged, considering the present state of affairs, to intervene in concert with England to suppress any movement. T THE BATTLE OF MAGENTA, IN NAPLES. TURIN, June 1001.—Adirices received here from Naples, state that the news of the victory of Magenta, arrived at that town on the 7th inst, and that the French and Sardinian legations were illuminated in celebration of the event. The populace also manifested their sympathy with the rejoicings of the Allies, by a pacific demonstration, which, however, was put down by the police. THE DUCHY OF PARMA The Duchess of Parma took her departure yester day, leaving the government of Ole Duchy to the' Municipality, and releasing the troops from their oaths of fidelity. The Municipality has named a commissioner, and despatched a deputation to the King of Sardinia, requesting him to take on himself the government of the country. DISMISSAL OF THE AUSTRIAN GENERAL. " VIENNA, Thursday Afternoon, 2 o'clock.—lt is credibly stated that General Gyulai has been dismissed, and Field-Marshal Hess appointed Com mander-in-Chief. The Austrians are retiring on the Adda., where they will offer the allies battle." DEMONSTRATION AT MILAN. " MILAN, June 8, Evening. —An important popular demonstration has taken place to-day.. A great number of the principal citizens assembled to cheer the Emperor in the courtyard of the palace." THE FRENCH - FUNDS PARIS, Friday, 12 20, p.m —The Bourse opens flat Rentes 61 95. 2 49, p.m.—Rentes have again declined, and are now quoted at 61 70. 3 30, p.m.—Rentes close at 61 75 for money, and 61 70 for account, being a fall of 1 per cent. since yesterday. FURTHER PARTICULARS OF BATTLE OF MAGENTA. The following particulars of the battle of Magenta, are extracted from a letter in the Constitutionnel of June 10, written front Novara, on June 5, by M. Ernest Dreolle : Yesterday, as the first battalions of the voltigeurs of the Guard, after conquering in a first engagement at Turbi,go were pursuing their march towards Milan, it appears that 40,000 Austrians, massed in columns, suddenly counter marched, and confident in their numbers, advanced against our leading columns, hoping to turn them, and check the concentration of our army_ upon Milan. But they had not I taken into their account the division of the grenadiers and chasseurs of the Guard commanded by General Mellinet. This division rapidly got together between Bufl'alora and Magenta, not far from the spot where the Turcos fought, and they very sopn showed a front to the enemy. Towards noon, the Austrians, after hesitating for some time, decided to attack. The Zouaves and grenadiers united, did not make up more than 10,000 men, but without budging a foot they held their own against the vainly energetic efforts of the 40,000 Austrians. The latter, surprised at such an obstinate resistance, retired in good order, formed again, and returned to the charge a second time. Tney might as well have rushed against a brazen rampart. The Guard soon became tired of this passive attitude, and resulycd to tglie the offensive. It charged and scattered the enemy. But the 1 itter, perceiving how small were the numbers of the French, came up again and again. Seven times in the course of two hours 'were these heroic charges renewed. The grenadiers and Zouaves were electrified by the presence of the Emperor, who, sword in hand, supported and directed them. The Emperor, however, was frequently seen to turn his eyes towards the points where, pursuant to his orders and calculations, he expected to see the divisions of and M'Mahon make their appearance. They arrived, and were saluted with a long bravo, which astonished and dis concerted the enemy. General M‘Mahon advanced to Magenta with an ardour, a dash, and an enthusiasm which was the admiration of the whole army. At the moment when his attacking column was crossing the bridge, General Espinasse, who was leading it with his well-known intrepidity, was unfortunately struck by a ball in the very centre of his breast. He must have died instantly. On seeing him fall, the soldiers, quite' beside themselves, rushed forward to avenge his death. Nothing could stop them —on, on they went, sweeping away every obstacle ; and after completely routing the enemy, they- effected their junction with the Imperial Guard, which was all the while commanded by the Emperor in person. The battle was gained. Marshal Canrobert and General de Saint Jean d'Angely had done wonders on their side. I hear that the Emperor warmly congratulated the new Duke of Magenta, to whom he attributed a large share in the success of the day. The Emperor did not shrink from exposing himself during the action, and more than once General Fleury threw himself before him, braving with a devotion which all admired (though all were ready to do the same) the bullets whiah threatened his Majesty. ** We have as yet no exact information as to the results of the day. I can, however, assure you that it was magnificent for our troops. Our losses are only 5,000, while that of the enemy is 15,000. These are the two lowest figures which I have heard. * * * As to the prisoners taken from us, they are " not numerous. They fell into the hands of the enemy in this way. Towards the end of the day a weak column of infantry was pursuing the routed enemy, when the leading sections became blenied with the flying masses, and were carried away with them. They were at most but 260 men. Further details to-morrow. ----~--- THE TURCOS. ( A correspondent, writing from the Seat of War, thus describes a new Legion, termed the Turcos, engaged in the Franco-Sardinian service The Turcos are a collection of Arabs Spaniards, and French. The same costume, the same fla and the same spirit belonc , to them all. Their faces are fierce looking ; their features strongly marked ; their manners are rough and reckless; their language is a jargon of all the known and unknown tongues, and finds expression in sharp, short, emphatic words, admirably adapted for military service. Their audacity is astounding, all the more so because it is natural to them, is not in any Ivay put on, and is the daily habit of their lives. Their reckless ness has in it something of the terrible, tHey care no more for their own lives than for the lives of others. They have an ardent love of adventure, of danger, of battle, and of difficulty that is almost insurmountable. Fighting is to them a pastime; human life a plaything; they sport with deadly weapons as a child with its toys. If instinct, instead of reason, were not the motive power of their acts, they might be aptly denominated the most ferocious, blood thirsty, cut-throat ruffians heaven's fair sunlight ever shone upon. Such are the Turcos. I leave you, there fore, to imagine• what their charges must be against an enemy, when I add to the above details that they are as nimble as squirrels, cunning as monkeys, and savage as tigers. Grape-shot excites their fury to the utmost. A fusillade irritates them ; a charge of cavalry is the sole thing they do not like, They fly against the enemy like an arrow from its bow; they fall upon him as the knife of the gullotine falls upon the condemned neck. The bayonet is the weapon they use; though their teeth are often enlisted into martial service, for some of the wretches love to suck the blood of their foes. I speak ala lettre in making this disgusting announcement. With my own ears I heard, at Vercelli, one of the barbarians declare that he liked to " taste Austrian blood!" No troops march like the Turcos. They run, they leap, they jump, they bound, they spring like wild beasts; they drag themselves along on their bellies; they dart forward like snakes; and wherever they tread they leave the footstepS of Death in their track. In costume they resemble the &naves. They have large breeches of holland, a little Arab jacket of blue colour, and a red turban. They have thus the aspect of something undiscovered between Turks and devils. When fellows of this kidney fall upon troops like the Austrians, resistance, however brave, is utterly useless. Everything yields to them, everything disappears, everything except stains of blood and lifeless bodies. Their officers in vain cry out, " Make prisoners." They want no bother—can't be encum bered with luggage. In one word, the Turcos is the con entrated essence of the Zouave. NAPLES NAPLES, June 9th.—At a Cabinet Council this morning, Filangieri, Serra-Capriolo, and. Cassaro were nominated Councillors of State. The modification of the new Ministry consists in the appointment of Casela, Mandaincci, and Galotti. The other ministers remain. The English fleet, consisting of the Marlborough: Euryalns, Brunswick, Princess Royal, Renown, Victor Emmanuel, and Lapwing, has just arrived. Naples is tranquil, The Hon. Henry Elliott, the English minister-extraordinary, has arrived from Marseilles in the steam gunboat Coquette. NAPLES, June 2.—Yesterday the body of King Ferdi nand the Second was carried from the Royal Palace to the tomb in the church of S. Chiaro. I watched the spectacle from one of the most crowded spots in Naples ; and I listened in vain for a word of regret. Not the slightest sign of emotion - was betrayed by any one member of the populace. The official journal, which is never published on birthdays or saints' days, came out as usual. When the clergy passed, with the cross at their head, people lifted their hats; but when the body of Ferdinand IT. passed no similar mark of respect was offered, and no one said God bless him." I do not give you the results of my own observations only, but those of almost every one with whom I have conversed on the subject. The pro_ cession, which was advertised to leave at three o'clock, did not do so until an hour after. The order of march was thus :—Three squadrons of infantry, a battery of horse artillery, three squadrons of hussars, the Royal Guard, the carriage of respect covered with mourning, drawn by eight horses ; then came ushers, gentlemen of the bedchamber, and a body of clergy large enough to have supplied a kingdom ; other officers of the court preceded the funeral car, which was open all round, and was drawn by eight horses. Immediately after followed twenty-four battalions of infantry, ten squadrons of cavalry, and two batteries of artillery ; the whole procession was closed, by about twenty court car riages, drawn by six horses each. Great order was pre , served during the day, and nothing occurred but some slight confusion, which was probably promoted by a body of thieves in the Largo, della Carita. So sensitive, how ever, is the public mind at the present moment, and so apprehensive is it of disturbances, that for the moment there was a considerable panic amongst the crowd, wire fled in all directions at the particular spot of which I speak. Judging from the appearance, and the expression of sentiment, I should have been disposed to have said that the spectacle at which I assisted on Tuesday had been some theatrical exhibition, certainly not the funera of a man who had been adored and loved. --........,-.. VALTA MARSEILLES, Friday.—The cable between Alexandria an, Candia has parted at 210 miles from Egypt. The Elba i laying the other piece from Canea to Syra. The Englis fleet left Malta, it is supposed, for Naples, on the. sth. GREECE. According to a report of the sitting of the Greek Cham bers of Duputies, published by the Esperance, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, in reply to a question, put to him by the deputy for Sparta, made the following statement : England and Russia have in the same terms recommended us to observe strict neutrality, and to maintain public order. France, more explicit, has not hesitated to signify that if the least disturbance should break out, she would be obliged, considering the present state of affairs, to intervene, in con-. cart with Eng l W l ; t 4 quppress any lnovemcut. THE NORTHERN TIMES, SATURDAY, JUNE 11 1859 THE DIFFICULTIES BETWEEN • ENGLAND AND AMERICA, RESPECTING CENTRAL AMERICA. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.-YESTERDAY, A letter from Washington says :—"There is at length a well assured prospect that our diplomatic complications with England in Central America are to be relieved, and an upright understanding established, upon a basis of. mutual satisfaction. That is to say, the agreement is to be carried out in good faith,. which the great principle of the Clayton- Bulwer Treaty contemplated, of free transit at the The Vexations Indictments Bill, the Debtor• and Creditor Bill, and the Joint Stock Companies' Bill, were read respectively a second time. The Law of Property and Trustees Relief Act Amendment Bill, was read a third time and passed. The house then adjourned at a quarter to six o'clock. Isthmus, abandoum eat of the Mosquito Protectorate and unconditional recession of the Bay Islands. When the Senate amended that bungling bargain called the Dallas-Clarendon Convention HOUSE OF CO4MONS.---YEsTERDAy THE WANT OF CONFIDENCE IN THE MINISTRY. The adjourned debate on the address was resumed by Mr. Milner Gibson, who declared that, as two parties were now inevitable, he was compelled to prefer that of the Liberals. Referring to the late elections, he admitted that these conditions were substantially imposed, and after the retirement of Lord Palmerston's ministry, which refused to accept the modifications, they were adopted by Lord Malmesbury as the best means of reaching a solution of this protracted all parties were in turn amenable to the charge of elector corruption ; but he charged the Administration with havin and vexatious controversy: Our treaty with Nicaragua, known as the Cass-Yrissari, was predicated upon this idea ; and when Sir George Ouseley went there to conduct his made use of their executive powers in a manner more He instanced the Berwick election' which was influenced by a promise that the barrack in that town should be repaired and occupied by her Majesty's troops. In giving his reasons for supporting the amend ment, he said that the late Reform Bill, though a retrograde was not in accordance with the views of the party who had introduced it. They were now promised a liberal and comprehensive measure of reform, but, however he usually improper negotiations, a copy of it was furnished as the model to be followed, in order to illustrate the conformity of policy on both sides. It is not material to inquire now what motives operated to induce Sir Gore to depart from this direct course ; but when it was seen that, before relinquishing the Musquito Protectorate, which was understood here to have been designed as the starting poi concluded a treaty of amity and ( a amen. meats not recognised by ours, and then left Nicaragua suddenly, the impression was very reasonable that some change in the programme had occurred which demanded the prompt and decisive interference of our government. This led to a correspondence ,witli Mr. Dallas, which was submitted to Lord Malmesbury, and that taxed his powers of creaunty, ue cueLu party would permit the ministry to perform that promise. The Liberal party, at all events, had no right to put their trust in any such promises ; and for them to give a vote of confidence in the government who made them, would be to trifle with our great parliamentary system. Neither could he feel confidence in them for their dealings with religious sl was followed by assurances, just received, which have given liberty They had opposed, during the last session, al the promise "of adjustments already referred to. While it attempts to modify the oath taken by Roman Catholics, it accordance with the feelings of members of that religion is not improbable that the war in Europe may have, in some degree, induced a more active desire to have this He called upon the house to put aside personal prejudices, and to decide the great question before it on constitntional grounds. As to the foreign policy of the country, while he would not charge the government with openly espousing either side, he averred that it had Austrian sympathies. Lord Derby had, in his place in Parliament, insinuated that France, in her late proceedings, entertained ambitious views. Was this consistent with that perfect neutrality he had so loudly professed. Con sidering the French alliances as essential to the interests of the country, he asked if the alarm excited, and the prepara tions now going on in the country, was not prejudcial to that alliance. He protested against the imaginary conjured up, and.tke unfavourable construction put upon the acts of the French government. He did not believe that much that was satisfactory would be learned from the papers which the government had promised to produce to parliament. He protested against, the allegations made against the supporters of Lord John Rnssell's resolutions, that it had been the cause of the present war, by weakening the hands of her Majesty's government. He believed the war to have been inevitable, after the declarations of the Paris Conference in respect of the States of Italy. Believing that the cause of Reform was safer in other hands than those of the present government, he gave his cordial support to the amendment. Mr. Lindsay, as a reformer, felt conscientiously bound to vote against the amendment. Why should a Conserva tive government fail in passing a ReforM Bill ? It was the government of the Duke of 'Wellington who passed Catholic Emancipation. It was the government of Sir R. Peel that repealed the Corn Laws.; It was the government of Lord Derby who admitted the Jews. Who was to' say if a Reform Bill introduced by the Liberals might not involve cause of embarrassment removed, candour requires it to be said that declarations of Lord Malmesbury, before the war was precipitated, gave abundant confidence that the original purpose would be carried out, no matter what arrangements Sir Gore Ouseley might make, or had made. The Hon. Henry Elliott ; the English Minister Extra ordinary, arrived at Naples last Sunday. A POLECAT AND A PIiARISEE.-A: short time since, a huntsman and his whipper-in were returning from chnreh, when the whip said, very seriously, "What is a pharisee?" " Why," said the huntsman, equ a lly serious, "it is bigger than a weasel and not so big as a fox." "Then that is a polecat," said the whip. "No," said the huntsman, "a pharisee is not a polecat, but is very much like one." Michigan is becoming famous for "classic horrors." The other day, an unmarried German lady, resident at Saginaw, invited all her neighbours to a . sumptuous banquet. The guests arrived and the genial hostess herself duly received them. When summoned from the drawing-room to the dining-room they found the fair lady a corpse. She had taken arsenic at the critical moment, and they had to - take a melancholy departure. At a Broadway Club, the question of Prince Albert's official position in England was lately debated. The discussion led to no result, but it was to be regretted that a person present, not being a member, was precluCled by the rules from saying that, when a celebrated artist had to paint the Prince Con sort in his official garb, he sketched him in his robe de nuit. The knowledge of that fact might have safely guided the disputants to a satisfactory conclusion. New York paper. A PEDAGOGUE had two pupils—to one he was very partial, and to the other very severe. One morning it happened that both were late, and were called out to account for it. " You must have heard the hell, boys. Why did you not come ?" " Please, Sir, " said his favourite, "I was dreamin' that I was going to Calyforney, and I thought the school bell was the steamboat bell that I was goin' in." " Very well, Sir (glad of any pretext to excuse his favourite) ; and turning to the other, " what have you to say ?" said the puzzled boy, " I - 1 was waiting to now, Sir "Please Sir see Tom off." a contest between the two Houses of Parliament for twenty years to come ? The present government had the means of passing their measures through the House of Lords, which their opponents did not possess. As to the foreign policy of the government, it had at least done as much to preserve peace as Lord Palmerston. Again; how could he vote against an address with the sentiments expressed in which the whole house was disposed to agree. The Chancellor of the Exchequer had taken the earliest opportunity of expound ing his sentiments in a candid and earnest manner, and now he was not to be allowed Oren to introduce his Measures. He should therefore give his vote in support of government. Mr. S. Herbert said that, as the cry of the government had been men not measures, they could not complain if the debate took a personal turn. The government bad proposed a Reform Bill, in accordance with their principles, they now promised a bill contrary to these principles, they were general dealets, keeping a shop for the supply of any article demanded, was he to be asked to vote confidence in a government so acting. He preferred seeing Reform in the hands of Reformers, and ' put no trust in those who had the business of others. NO Bill of the Conservatives, introduced with the reluctant consent of the party, could be either permanent or satis factory. He deprecated the taking up of strictures made in former times by one member against another for the purpose of influencing the great question by whont the offices of this country were to be managed. Commenting I on the state of parties, he observed, that the field for liberal opinions was necessarily more wide than that of its opponents, and that the liberal government was more ex clusive, because liberal members were frequently more engaged in business who had no leisure for the duties. Under present circumstances, what was anciently called a strong government, was no longer possible. but whatever party obtained the victory, he was sure that the patriotism and good sense of the country would come to its aid, and that on its foreign policy it would not forget that there was in Italy a people struggling for freedom. Mr. Bentinck opposed the amendment, the success of which he regarded with great apprehension. It would not have been supported by Mr. Bright without a guarantee that his views on parliamentary reform would be carried out. Tie demanded that they should have clear views as to the policy of the government which would be incoming if the amendment were successful. lie trusted, however, that the vote of the House would signify their approval of the )licy of the government.

The runaway pair were Miss Eliza M'Donnel and Thomas P. Bryant, of Nelson County, Ky. The young lady, it appears, is the heiress of a large property, and was the ward of a stern guardian, who determined she should, not wed her suitor, because he had met with some financial reverses. So much opposed was he to the match he had •at one time favoured, that he forbade the lady seeing her lover at all, and began a series of persecutions that resulted in open rebellion, and a firm resolution to run away. The wedding . . was performed last week at the Spencer House in Cincinnati, in the lady's bedchamber, the Rev. Dr. Scott officiating The bride and gioona then went back comfortably to Kentucky. EXPENSE OF THE COLONrES.--The cost of the several colonies of the British Empire at the expense of the British Exchequer, in the year 1857, amounted to no less than £4;115.757 against £4,887,957 in 1856, £4,804.956 in 1855, £4,466,201 in 1854, and /3,845,018 in 1853. In 1847 the list was as follows :—Gibraltar, £423,589 ; Malta, L 442,722; the Cape of Good Hope, /682,015; Mauritius, £74,881 ; Bermuda, £158,061; St. Helena, £62,640 ; Heligoland, £1,274 ; the lonian Islands, £199,470 ; the - in - 7 • .

A NOVELTY IN MUSIC AND lIECIIANICS. —Every piano- 7orte amateur has longed for some supernatural agency which should note down and preserve a record of the sound rhich he calls forth from his instrument, when the divine Hiatus is on him, and the spirit of melody takes possession f his brain. To adopt a more chastened style of rhetoric, very player improvises some strains which he would be glad to repeat, which, perhaps, contains ideas worthy of urther development,. but which, once played, cannot be 'ecalled, and are lost. Mr. Henry F. Bond has invented a ieautifully simple apparatus, which is easily to be applied o any piano -forte, and by which every note played, whether w design or accident, is recorded in its proper place upon a lip of music paper. In a few words the plan of this appa •atus may thus be described :—Upon a cylinder placed in irke end of the piano -forte, the ruled music paper is wound ; )y means of clock-work this cylinder .is made to revolve at uniform rate of speed, the paper thus unwound, passes by mother cylinder prepared with a surface of. ink ; each key If the instrument, acting upon a lever, raises a metal point against the paper, presses it upon the inky surface and 3auses a mark to be made, the length of the mark showing accurately the duration of the note. A pedal, by a similar action, marks the bars. With five minutes of practice, any person who understands music can rapidly translate these marks into the usual system of notes. The whole arrange ment is so simple, that the first feeling is astonishment that the invention has never been born before.--Boston Courier. PAISLEY FoLxs.--Soiree thirty years ago, an English tourist was standing on the Castle Rock, with a lank, keen visaged Scotchman for interpreter and guide. "Now, my good friend," said the southron, " you have talked . quite enough about your native town. Pray, forget Paisley for-a moment, and let us look at Edinbtirgh." " It's no that easy to forget Paisley when ye look at Embro," replied the offended cicerone. " Seest 'ou ?" and he pointed towards the University buildings, "that's Embro' College, where they come from England and a' parts to learn to .be doctors, and chancellors, and members o' parliament ; and it has the cleverest men in the three kingdoms for its professors ; but far the cleverest of them a' is ane John Wilson, and he's a Paisley man. And seest 'on ? " pointing to a distant spire, "t'on's the steeple o' North Leith. It's the best stipend in Scotland, and it's allowed to have the best preacher in Scotland for it's minister.

When the present governmen into office, the nation was in a state in which it never was before, and in which, he trusted, it never -would be found again. He contrasted that state with the impos- / - ing condition of the navy at the present moment. The number of line-of-battle ships would, before long, double the number in service fi a months a:4-o.

He justifted the adoption of the increased subject, on which they bounty against the attacks ing that it was absolutely necessary for the requirements of the service. 11 , 3 demanded of the house that it should support a government which had done so much for the mon Marbli giving arbitrary principles. Captain Vernon asked if the heads of the future govern ment •were to be double, like the two kings of Bradford, or like Ceberus, three gentlemen at oneo. No power on earth would induce Lord Palmerston to go forward with Mr. Bright, or Mr. Bright to go backward with Lord Palmerston. How could an administration stand, composed under such circumstances, or with such supporters. Mr. W. H. Leatham felt compelled to vote, for the amendment, believing that the government had failed in all its administrative measures, especially in that for political "reform. Sir G. C. Lewis declared the present amendment to have been forced upon the opposition by the. 'conduct of the government. The late disssolution compelled the issue of a Liberal or a Conservative government, to be raised immediately on the meeting of the new Parliament. The opposition, if it had not accepted the challenge then thrown out to them, would have been guilty of political cowardice.
