THE LATE LORD RAGLAN.
The Clerk of the House having read the Qation's message
he their lordships which was sent down to the buns. on the
previous evening,
Lord PAN MORE ram and said—la movies that her
Mains'''. gracious sausage he now taken into consideration,
I treat your lordships will bear with me while I perform
the most painful met of the position which I bays the
tumour to fill. That position has obliged me to cootemplate
not simply the ravages which are made by war, but those
still inure painful to nfleet upon. of diseases leaden to
war. This is oat of the occasions to which I refer,
cad as cressies marked by the mobility of the
victim and by the circumstances fa whittle we are
now called upon to record the national regret that
one has hens taken from the command of the army in
whom the native had cot Riese*, and whose merits,
as a soldier and a gentlemen, entitled him to the esteem of
all. My I rds, it has pleased hod to remove, by disease,
Lord Raglan from the heed of our army in the Crimea.
Aad it a a singular fact that the same calamity has Lilles
upon both the nation which are engaged in this was.
Franc* has bad to lament a St. Aramed--England has to
mourn her Raglan. My lords, it is scarcely aseoseary for
me, in speaking of the ebaracter of Lord Rastas, to remind
you of the public services he has rendered. At as early age
he embraced the profession of arms with all the ardour whit►h
his noble blood inspired, and with all the snow which his
lateral qoalities 'sowed to him I. that profeoloss. la
11107 he was selected by and associated with that great coo-
steadier, the Duke of Wellington, epos his staff, on theca
elision of the ezpedition to P.irtugaL Sir Arthur Wellesley,
with an eve which was capable, I believe, more than any
Ober, of distinguishing tee latrine° merit of those whom
he employed, selected L. rd Foamy Stamen as his aidodo
camp, and an intimacy then began which, from 1807 to
1862, continued. During the life of the Duke of
Welliegton Lord Raglan enjoyed the confidence, and
was the esteemed comrade of that great commander.
My lords, I believe there was no act, of ser-
vice is which the Duke of Wellington was engaged
in the Peninsula is which Lord Raglan did sot take a
port; sad it wan his singular fortune in the col? siege

Lord Reales the governor surrendrred it. We may follow

meter war; we may follow him to aterloo, where he had
the misfortune to be wounded and to lose an arm, sad use
him ensued after the mom of that campaign is ea
office connected wilt the mhitary administration at
bore. When Borland had rested from war fir

that his services la time of peen were not less eminent this

lords, pernape I ate sons,erbat capable of judging of the I

he had en mach at heart. My lards, he won for himself
the hoooure to which a soldier could aspire—he won the I
fullest admiration of his aslant and noble comrades in ems. 1
He ie now removed frees swinger them, but not before be
had been rubble(' to prove that, although be had reached I
the period of life when every intik is naturally inclined
to real from his labour., be was ready as el,. ,
t ) pursue the COW., of honourable election; for I
no sooner did the conflict become inevitable, than Lord
Holten • Bred his aerate eto the nation, and by that nation ,
they were accepted with avidity—(cbeers)—to lead our I
army into the Geld, taking a comma-d for which so one in
England wee better qualified. (Cheer .) My lords you i
all know with what successLsrd Raglan bas conducted cur I
army in the East, in all the affors in which it has hitherto
been 'noosed ; but few of your lordships do know, that to
which tie government are capable of bearing tee hooey, I
namely, the swam the eminent success with which Lord
B,glen conducted that int. fc.,urts between the two nations,
Up..a all occasions, I may say, with that cordial commonly i
of feeling and unity of action, without which no afore I
could ban prospered in the halide of the commanders
whd were engaged in that coripsign, (Ct eon.) If 1 1
should any there was one point in who b Lora ligegten's ex-
cellence was more conspicu ,us than in nothn, it wee the
mealier in which be conducted test alliance between those i
ten great nations and their armies in league, which has
been the means of souring valuable aid to the soldiers of
each, and of consolidating, as I hope, between the two em-
vireo, a friendly feeling which will , I Least, be elf cad. e
(Cheers.) These, an lords, are serviced which I think I
may call invaluable. The noble lord's career is now finished.
His iron frame has been compelled at last to succumb to the
ravages of disease; sad we, my lords, are salted upon
to honour him who is now at rest with ea sc.
knowleolgenent of his couniry's grateful einem. The I
pen of criticism has now stopped, the tongue
of celumny is now silent. (Cheers.) All admit now, teat I
in him we lament Seethed has lost a brave and espial- I
enClia soldier, mu ace and amiable gentleman, a I
noble gad distinguished niter's. My torn, its not for me I
to enter cow into the dent'. of that which will be laid

to know whether the right bon. 'melanin was aware that
such was the fact, and, if so, whether he was prepared to
insti'ute an inquiry ?
Sir G. GREY had seen the statianset in the paper.,
and had therefore made inquiries. He was informed that
an intimation had been given that all the parties aerated
would be defended by counsel; it was that tote thought
advisable Chit counsel should appear for the prosecution
also. Some dilliceloy was experiefteed in finding the count,'
ordinarily engaged for t' • HomeeMea—that would account
fur cane of the delay which had taken place. He was
informed all the ears had sines been disposed of, with the
reception of • few which had been postponed on the spelt-
cation of the parties themselves, who wished to obtain soma
evidence which in their opinion was calculated to impeach
that of the police.

LORD RAGLAN.—THE QUEEN'S MESSAGE.
The ceder of the day for the consideration of the Queen's
message having been read,
On the me ion of Lord PALas...—_
into comer. ova.
The CHAIRMAN having road her Majesty's masasge,
Lord PALMER'sTON rose and said—l rin, sir, to per-
form one of the most psi lel duties which can fall to a
minister of the crown, but at the same time cone not devoid
of a feeling of consolation, which I am cure will at all times
secure the sympathy of this house, and be supported and
accompanied by the approbation of the country. Sir, it is
the privilege of the people of a free country to share with
the sovereign in the manifestation of thirst tailings of grati-
tude, and the warmth of those acknowledgments which are
due to those heroic men who devote themselves to the
military and naval service of their country and in foreign
fields rause toe honour and dignity end maintain the in-
terests of their sovereign and their country. (Hear, bee.)
In sober Wallowa not so fortunate in their coestitutionai
institutions the people are obliged to remain passive specta-
tors of those acts of grace by which the sovereign rewards
and acknowledges the serve's of these who have fought and
shot in their defence ; but in this country the people by
their representatives share in the acts oi the sovereign.
That participation of the people with the sovereign
detracts in no degree from the tenter so conferred ,1
by the crown. The value of these gifts is rather
enhanced because we associate with the discretion and
generous feeling of the sovereign the sanction, uses%
and approbation of the people. (Hear.) Sir, it has oft=
been our lot in this bore to see appearing at the bar, or seer
tog is their places, men who by their throe acids in the field
or at sea have deserved the gratitude and the reward 61
their country. We have beard this roof nog with the acclama-
tions which have followed the ezpsesaose which have fallen
fr m the chair in conveying to thoe persons the thanks and
gratitude of their country. (Hear, hear.) We have also had
frequently to second the gen... ustentioes of the sovereign
by awing the Crown 'e testa,/ oa deseretug men those more
substantiel acknowledgments which were necessary to enable
them adequately Ve support the dignity which the crown,
by its prerogative, had conferred oh them. Is toe case ut
Lord Raglan, unfortunately neater of these is is
our prier; that ear wnich might have listened
with delight to the meet= thanks conveyed
through this house is now still in death,—that band
which might have received the generous acknow-
ledgments of his coustry, is now cold turd stiff in the grave;
but, sir, Lord Raglan has bequeathed to his country, nut
only a deep and, I trust, • long enduring sense of gratitude
for .besenies he has performed, ha has also bequest...l '
to his country thee who were dearest to his effecter, and
who, I trust, will long continue to be the objects the Au.
tionate solicitude of this country. Sir, it Lad Revise had
not received before he undertook his last employment that
peerage which was oeforred on him as en acknowleog-
meet of his valuable services in the maregemest of the
army,—if that reward had been delayed till the enigma=
of his services in toe Callum—is that case there ten be no
doubt that this house would have responded to the desire of
the Crown as it has done is other ones, end that the
peerage would have been sonompanied with seen a
provision for the staireeree of the dignity as
we have bad many inane= of in the course of the present
century. I cannot o scene that toe circumstance of the
reward having bees conferred, uoaceompared by any au
nummaidation from the Crows, eau hate say utter effeh
ct
than to increase the anxiety of the bows to take advantage
sad avail itself of the present occasion. toe the purpose of
mining that provision teethe support of this pee sag which
would naturally have aeoompaatel it. Sir, what we an
about to propose is founded on Wrens to tie similar pre-
sides ie the eerie of tee present armoury in the cues of
those gallant @oldie's who hays PSCO1•114 from ram Crown
the dignity of the peerage as a reward for their brilliant
Military services. In all these cues tae communication
nee to this hones by the Crown was followed by the grant
of • palsies for the life of the person on whom the homier
was coulened, and generally for two succeeding Ines.
That peasica varied from tan to three tressed •
year; in the present cue, as the country has satoetentely
to lament the loss et the individual on acerraet of whose
services the recommendation le med., we mast depart fa
some degree from the precedent. What I sin about to
propose is this, that a peseta& of one troused a year he
panted to Lady Raglan for life, and • pension of two ,
thousand to tics present Loth Raglan, with remainder
his Belt heir succeeding to the ti le. The paeans have
guerally been given fee thne lives •in the went use '
