gentleman stated that beer retailLd in public-
houses in Essex had been analysed, and out of
thirteen specimens it was fouud that one-half
was adulterated with deleterious drugs designed
to Nadine unnatural thirst, and calculated to
cause premature intoxication. He believed that
if the malt duty were repealed the poor would
brew their own beer, and thus enjoy a cheap and
wholesome beverage. One division, the follow-

Lord Grey de Wilton.
The remarkable debate in the House of Lords
on Holiday night gave Earl Russell an oppor-
tunity of explaining the Ministerial Danish
policy, With regard to the past, his Lordship
*as of opinion that we were bound by treaty
not to disturb the arrangements of 1852, and he
admitted that it was our urgent duty to permit
no one elae to disturb them. Consequently Earl
Russell says, and his despatch is printed, that he
expressly proposed to give material aid to Den-
mark if France, Russia, and Sweden would have
joined with us. He thinks the integrity of
Denmark—that is,the union of Denmark Proper
with the German Duchise--so vital and so ex-
cellent, that he was anxious to create • military
alliance of great States in order to maintain
He offered to begin what we may cell a partner-
ship war, and only escaped by the refusal of
France and Russia, the proposed participators.
He regards the close union of the Duchies to
Denmark as valuable and priceless, for he would
make it the sole aim of a European coalition.
Earl Grey, with masterly critaciant, reviewed the
past policy of the Government; and although
there may be many, both Conservatives and
Liberals, who will not agree in his conclusions,
all, we think, must admit that be had by far the
beet of the argument. Earl Grey think.s that if
it is right to defend Denmark in combination
with Frame and Russia, we ought not to hold
back because France and Russia ehirk their obli-
gations and decllue to aid. We can or could
help Denmark. English money in the Danish
treasury, English troops in the Dannewerke,
an English fleet in the Adriatic, would have
wholly altered the aspect of the present struggle.
Instead of being an obstinate victim, fighting
for delay and time, Denmark would have been
an equal oombatant—perhaps a more then equal.
Sweden, tad, *mild have joined with us or
with any other great Power in defence if
Denmark. It bee been our reluctance and in-
activity which has deprived her of the aid of the
rest of Scandinavia. It was certain we could
have helped Denmark essentially and vitally, and
if Karl Russell was right in trying to negotiate
a coalition In her aid, It was difficult td argue
that we ought not to have helped bet. Earl
Grey remarked that there were two, and only
two consistent alternatives. One policy is that
which he two months ago would have recom-
mended. He would have sent troops to the
Eider, and a fleet to the Adriatic; he would
have given active and effectual material aid.
The other policy Is that of the Etnperor of the
Freuch. tie said : "I will perform my part of
the treaty of 1852; indeed, I have done so,
for I have acknowledged the succession of
King Christian, but I do not feel called
on to go further. It is not a case
in which I think war would be productive of,
good, or in which I would be prepared to corn- 1
mono. it." For each of these policies much I
might be said ; but there was little to be said for
a half-and-half policy, which admits the qui 'ion
to be worth a war, and which will not :hi
• war beer's* other Powers refuse I
aid. Earl Russell Made use of a tin...
argument in reply. He said: "When I nytellt
on the exposition made by my light liononitible
friend of the magnificent sitilation ef this
country, lam not diepoked to imperil it." And,
this argument will, no doubt, give great 'ads- I
faction to the Pesos Society, for it shows that in
every case there ia • financial veto on war.
When we have no money we cannot afford a war;
and when, as now, we have plenty, why it is a
pity to spend it. So much, then, for the past.
Now for the present and future. A conference
has been called for the restoration of peace in
the North of Europe. But the arrangements of
1852 will never be submitted to by Germany,
and unless some great Power helm Denmark
with something more potent than words, Ger-
mane will compel an alteration of these
arrangements. When the Conference therefore
meete it *ill have to discuss an Undies",
and to settle an all but insoluble pro-
blem. There is no possible solution which
will satisfy both the Danes aod the Germans
and perhaps the best expedient would satisfy
neither. If the Northern part of Slesvig, where
the Danes predominate, were incorporated with
Denmark, and Southern Sleevig and Holstein
were subetsatially delivered over to Germany,
there would be a Mbderate chant. of peace and
comfort in that part of the world. But probably
neither the Danes nor the Germans, in Slemig
nor out of it, would agree to such a compromise.
Again, the Emperor pf the French has asked,
or suggested, that the populations should be
consulted. But it seems scarcely possible that
there should be a fair vote while the electing
country is governed by the armies of one of the
candidates Denmark might sap and would
say, that • decision by filming in votir of Ger-
many at this juncture vu• 'elision under
duress and compulsion. How, too, is the vote
to be taken? Is Holstein to vote with 'Romig,
or separately I Is Slesvig to vote as a whole!
Is south Slesvig to vote that North Ellesvig shall
be German, and North Slesvig vote that South
Slesvig shall be D,.nisbl Are days to be spent
in learned dissertations on "unlone Mal" and
"unions personal r Them are only a few of
the questions that arise in the mind, and which
will have to be solved at once. We her it will
be easier to collect the Conference than to con-
clude the discussions. As regards the present
situation of the war parties, we learn that the
Prima la4lll have tried another parallel before
Duppel, but that the Danes have re•olved to
hold out to the last °ideality. Their crtdeme
In the Baltic,. and of the German ports, ere
displaying great activity, and the captures of
German merchant ships have been numerous.
Thirteen y ears ago when England was con-
vulsed by the "Papal aggression," when Lord
John was writing Durham letters, and little boys
were engaged in burning Guy Faux, no one
would have supposed that the ecclesiastic against
whom the storm of popular indignation was
chiefly directed, would ever be on. of the most
popular of publie lecturers. Yet such Cardinal
Wiseman Is. He has just been lecturing at the
South Kensington Museum on "The prospects
of good architecture in London." They are
not very promising according to the Cardinal.
It is still true, as Canova said, that the mansions
of our aristocracy consist of long lines of brick
walls with open slits. Foreigners are always struck
with the meanness of our noble residences.
Walter Savage Landor once took an Italian to
see the Royal Crescent at Bath. which is one of
the finest pile of buildings in England, and the
Italian admitted that it was very good; but
after looking from one side of the homes to the
other he asked, where are the doors? He could
not undertand that the straight quadrilateral
hole in front of each house was a door, for he
was thinking of the splendid pillared portioos of
his own nobility. The Cardinal, however,
admitted that our "merchant princes" had
more taste than our nobles, and mentioned
some of the new offices in the City of London
as a pest improvement on old days. Still he
complained that there was DO one style which
would be hereafter known as the style of the
nineteenth century. Tudor was next door to
Turkish, Gothic to Greek, Byzantine to
Rosskamm. Of comae Mr. Bersdord Hope,
who was in the chair, wee delighted, and thanked
the lecturer, who, whatever his theology may
be, is very sound on questions of art.
The Garibaldi demonstrations in England have
offended the French people, who memo to see
in the whole affair an "Meek upon the Holy
Father, and • step towards the expulsion of the
French from Rome; and the most absurd noneenee
