HONESTE AUDAX.

rhetoric of the most approved Radicalism, and
end, with admirable consistency, in playing the
Tory to perfection. Mr. STCMT deeply re-
"gretted that Lord DERBY had not laid on the
"table a Bill that was likely to satisfy the great
"expectations of the people ;" he looked upon
the disfranchising clause with "considerable
astonishment;" and, further, it was a "sop
"thrown to the comity members, which he re-
"garded as a great political insult offered to
"them. He had faith in the people, and I"-
"tested against any attempt to tamper with
"their constitutional rignts." In reply to the
"malevolent cheers" from his own party which
these just and unqualified expressions of Liberal-
ism elicited, Mr. SMUT declared that he was a
Conservative, and that that man was more
worthy of the appellation who " identified him
-
"self with the principle of progress, than he
"who raised his voice in favour of a retrograde
" policy." Well, Mr. STVIVE then proceeds to
give effect to his words, and meaning to his
action, by voting in favour of the Gwerument
I Bill, which he himself had well and truthfully con-
demned, which the country repudiates altogether,
and which the Ministers themselves are so
thoroughly ashamed of as to have been long
since ready to abandou it—that is, to consent to
its being lopped and mutilated, to its assuming
any shape whatever, at the hands of the com-
mittee, if they could only drag it Wore them !
Mr. STURT paid it very illdliferellt comuplinicuut
to the intelligence of county members, when he
said he shared in the opinion that those worthy
gentlemen " were not generally supposed to
"hold very enlightened views, or to have very
, "expansive intellects." It had been well if the
honourable gentleman himself had IP presented
in his own proceeding on this occasion a too
' powerful illustration of the truth of this remark.
With regard to the re-construction of the
Bill in committee, which the Ministers desire
as a last chance, Lord JouN Itessimi. showed
very conclusively the inexpediency and folly of
such a proceeding. He maintained that before
going into committee some grand principle t
be recognized and agreed to by the House ; other-
wise, there is clearly no basis upon which legisla-
tion on this question VW take its stand
with any hope whatever of a satisfactory issue.
"Considering what this question is," said Lord
JOHN RUSSELL, with irresistible force, "what is
its gravity and importance, and how much the
right hon. gentleman, the CuaseeLtou of the
Exeozoveß, dwelt upon that gravity and im-
portance, the proposal of throwing the whole
representation of the country into hotchpotch
as it were, inviting every one to make his
amendment and to bring forward his clauses, is
a proposal unworthy of a Government, degra-
ding to the character of this House, and likely in
the end to produce a Bill which will not be con-
ducive to the public interest." The hope, there-
fore, that a good and useful measure of reform
could be passed this session by going into com-
mittee, is the most delusive by which the
country party could possibly be misled, we mean
" the county members on the Ministerial side
" of the House—those poor gentlemen who, as
Mr. timer says, are not renowned for " expan-
, sive intellects."

A Cosonsss of the great Powers is About to
meet, at the suggestion of Russia, for the pur-
pose of taking into consideration the state of
Italy, and of preventing complications which
would naturally disturb the peace of Europe.
The French Government was the first to give its
assent to the proposal, and the English, Prus-
sian, and Austrian Cabinets have since agreed to
it. It is understood that the Congress will meet '
in Aix-la-Chapelle or some other neutral city ;
and Count Cavour is now in Paris with a view
to obtain the consent of the five Powers that
Sardinia and the other Italian States shall be
represented on the occasion.
In the House of Lords on Tuesday, Lord
Wodehouse moved the second reading of the
Marriage Law Amendment Bill. Viscount
Dungannon moved as an amendment that the
Bill be read a second time that day six months.
The Bill was supported by the Earl of Alber-
mark, Lord Lifford, the Bishop of Cork, Earl
Granville, aud the Bishop of Carlisle; and
opposed by Lord St. Leonard', the Bishop of
Exeter, the Bishop of St. David's, the Bishop
of St. Asaph, the Bishop of Oxford, and Lord
Cranworth. On a division, the second reading
was negatived by a majority of 10, the
numbers being 49 to 39. The Bill was conse-
quently lost. On Thursday the Trading Com-
panies Winding-up Bill passed through com-
mittee.

Mr. litne SLIMES, following Mr. STUNT,
also addressed the House on this great
question ; and we could wish for the honour of
the "county members on the Ministerial side"
that in his own person he hail been able to
vindicate his class from the imputation cruelly
thrown upon them by the remorseless vigour of
his colleague, Mr. STU UT. Mr. SEY M
delivered himself of a tumbling, discursive
speech, remarkable for its intellectual poverty
throughout, being a criticism of out-of-iloor
speeches, the echo of newspaper sentiments
favourable to his views, the barren topic of
agricultural statistics, and a pretty round abuse
of Lord JoHN Itrhsr.LL, whom, with rustic
vulgarity, he flatly accused of a greater &aim
to chate.m places with right hon. gentlemen
opposite than to amend the representation of
the people. Such an aspersion as this which is
found lit Mr. St:nixie% peroration, directed
against the acknowledged champion—the vene-
rated " father of reform." might well shock the
House, and elicit expressions of indignant sur-
prise. Hut Lord JouN has known how to
answer all such taunts and insults as these, and
he passes them by with the contempt they
deserve—pursuing in a straight forward, reso-
lute, and intelligible manner the line of duty
which lies before I • —hot paltering with us in n
1101iblU sense, nor keeping the word I,f promise
to the ear and breaking it to the hope.
Of the three county members for Dorsetshirc
the Hon. Mr. PoItTNIAN reinttins to express his
sentiment' on the NIL Let us hi ope that in
this gentleman. at all events, the county of Dorset
may have had the credit of sending to Par-
liament one representative at least who call not
only enunciate good principles hut stand by
them ; who can understand, and who is willing
to advocate, an enlightened anal iirogressive
policy, and which, at the Bantu tilnu, lw will do
I all in his power to support and carry into effect.
He, certainly it must be lureauluuiel, will not
commit the indiscretion of suffering his vote to
stultify his speech, or his speech his vote ; nor
carry us away, after the fashion of Mr. &Yuen,
into the mystic wanderings—the airy nothings,—
in which a forced oration from the lips of one of
those country gentlemen described by Mr. STVILT
may be expected to 'amigo the adventurous
speaker.

In the Commons on Monday, on the Chancel-
lor of the Exchequer's motion for the second
reading of the Govermuent Reform Bill, Lord
Joins Russell moved as an amendment "That it
is neither just nor politic to interfere in the
11131111 Cr proposed in this Bill with the freehold
franchise as hitherto exercised in the counties of
England and Wales, and that no readjustment
of the franchise will satisfy this House or the
country which does not provide for a greater
extension of the suffrage in cities and boroughs
than is contemplated in the present measure."
, The amendment was opposed by Lord Stanley,
Mr. Stud, Mr. Ker Seymer, Mr. Liddel, Mr.
Horan's'', Mr. A. Mills, and Lord B. Cecil ;
and supported by Lord Bury, Alderman Salo-
mons, Sir C. Wood, and Mr. Hugessen ; while
Mr. Newilegate opposed both the Bill and the
amendment. The debate was then adjourned
till Tuesday, when the amendment was supported
by Mr. Wilson, Mr. limb Mr. C. Forster, Mr.
Dobson, Mr. Croonley, and Mr. S. Herbert ;
and opposed by Sir B. Lytton, Mr. Phillips, Mr.
Vansittart, Mr. Knightly, and the Solicitor-
Ocueral ; while Mr. Stanhope opposed both the
Bill and the amendment. Tlie debate was then
again adjourned. On Wednesday the High
Sheriffs Expenses Bill was read a second time.
Mr. Black move,! the second reading of the
Edinburgh Annuity Tax Bill. Mr. C. Bruce
moved, as an amendment, that the Bill be read a
second time that day six months. The amend-
ment was supported by the thwernment on the
ground that the Lord Advocate is engaged in
the preparation of a measure on the subject,
which he will shortly introduce. On a division
the second reading was carried by is majority of
'216 to IN. Mr. Oregory moved the second
reading of the Poor Relief (Ireland) Act Amend-
ment Bill. Mr. Grogan moved that it be read a
second time that day six months. A desultory
debate ensued, which was ultimately cut short by
the arrival of the hour for adjournment. On
Thursday Mr. Mitchell asked the Chancellor of
the Exchequer whether the tlovernment were to
be understood to persist in maintaining the uni-
formity of town and county franchise as the
Principle of their Reform Bill. Mr. Disraeli, in
reply, said, that though to answer the question
categorically would carry I too far, he would
say that Her Majesty's Oovermumat would cer-
tainly not have introduced a Reform Bill at all
if they had not believed that there was no pro-
vision in the Bill which might not, with benefit,
be submitted to calm and impartial considera-
tion in committee. Thu adjourned debate on
the Bill WM then resumed, when Lord J. Rua-
eel's ainumbnent was supported by Mr. M.
Gibson, Mr. Headlans, Mr. Dennison, Mr. Locke
King, Mr. W. J. Fox, Mr. It. Osborne, and Mr.
Bright; and opposed by Mr. Adderley, Mr.
•• Benthick, Mr. button, Mr. B. Hope, and Mr.
Walpole. The debate was then again adjourned,
and resumed 011 Friday, when it WM further
adjourned to this evening (Monday.)

sinned. Looking et the contingency of a disso-
lution, many of these oratorical displays have a
very clear teualency in the direction of the hust-
ings ; and, while professing to have but a single
eye to the true business of legislation, the speeches
of some members present some very curious cha-
racteristics of complication and inconsistency.
Some few declare both against the Bill and the
amendment. There is one member—and Dorset-
shire has the honour of producing hini—who has
enlivened the solemn discussion with sonic real
amusement, highly provocative of merriment ,
and laughter. It is Mr. HENRY ( ; EttARD STURT
t whom the honour is due of creating this great
and very pleasant sensation. Wu know it is
said that the use of language is to conceal a man's
thoughts; we now Mel it may go very far to
conceal his actions. But the intent and pur-
pose of a speech we take to be the expression
and enforcement of a man's views and principles
upon which he is resolved to act. Mr. STURT,
however, has no respect for these common-place
obligations, he soars above the limits of such
conventionalities. According to the honourable
gentleman, he may plunge into the rattling
