They have suesecial to power, hove dieglesed the best

=lir parliament, for the pommy of
or
duties—moo( others, a duty a corn. . hear.) I
trust the house will bear with use while I egad a few po-
etises from the speeches of a noble earl au ass ONO I
have had the satisfaction and pleasure of kooorieg .the
noble earl at the head of the government for • gnat weeny
years, and 1 have the most unbounded reliance is kin
honour. What he has stated by that I am convinced be
will abide, and I w i:1 now bring under the consideratim at
this house a series of avowals made by the noble earl at the
head of the government, and I defy his colleagues in th is house
to deny his intentions, or to mystify what he so clearly
stated. (Cheers.) I shall tint refer to the statement made
by the Earl of Derby on the 2Sth February, 18.;1, when he
led fetikd in his endeavour to form an administration. It
was on an occasion of great importance, be leaving to state
to the Douse of Lords and the country the cause of his
failure. and he completed that statement with • frank
avowal of the policy he would have adopted had hr sue-
ceediel in forming • government. I will now read the
principal passages in that apeeels, and point out the policy
which he would have adopted. The noblu earl sail—" It
would be impcnaible for me, even if my convictions were
leas strop,: than they are, it would he impossible fur me as
an honest in:us to take other without a full determination to
deal with agricultural distress, sod to endeavour
to apply, as minister, effectual measures of relief."
(Protettiunist cheers.) Wait. The noble earl was
petfectly explicit, and I congratulate gentlemen opposite,
who have so long laboured for what they tern some re-
muneration for the unequal burthens upon land, on the
prospects which they now have with the Earl of Derby at
the head of the government, and the right hon. gentleman
opposite in the cabinet, of their succiss in that object which
for six years they have so unceasingly laboured to accom-
plish. The noble earl goes on:—" I will take this oppor-
tunity of explaining to your lordships what are my views
and intentions on the subject of agricultural distress. I
say, that by imposing a moderate duty on the importation
of foreign corn, you moat raise a considerable revenue for
the country, while you read not materially raise the exist-
ing prices to the consumer, while you might, by the
acquisition of an additional revenue of one and a half
or two millions mtually, cuable the government to effect an
object which would bo of great blue to the community
at ierge, namely, the extinction of the incotne tax." Now,
observe the noble earl expects one-and-a-half or two mil-
lions from a duty on corn. The right hon. gentleman
opposite said be would scorn a Ti.. duty. I now understand
his contempt. Five shillings would not raise onemud-a-half
or two millions, it must be a much heavier duty. (Loud
cries of " Bear, hear," and cheers.) The noble earl diva
says. " I do not hesitate to say, that if I found it impracti-
cable to effect such a commutati is of our system of taxation
(rather • severe comment on the plan of the present Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer) as should place all dames oa a
perfect level, then, accoteliug to the best free-trade authori.
tie , it is not adverse to the principles of free trade to
impose in favour of the class which is subjected to
an undue share of burdens countervailing duties to an
amount sufficient to meet those burthens, and I believe
that by the impoation of • moderate duty upon
the import of corn and provisions, you might raise
such an amount of taxation as, at the end of the year after
this, would enable the country altogether, and I trust for
ever, to abolish the income-tax. I express my frank opinicu
that the question of protection—or, if you please, the ques-
tion of the unrestricted import of provisions—is one which
must be settled by the country once and for ever." (Cheers.)
The boa. baronet the member for Essex cheors that. I say
there is melting more clear titan the course of toe govern-
ment, as expressed by the Earl of Derby. lie asks for im-
port duties, including a duty on cote—(hoar, hear)—and
the means by which he proposes to effect his purpose are, a
dissolution of parliament. Nothing cm be more plain.
The noble earl goes on : " But until I en that expression
of the feeling of the country—when I find that the pe-
nal MOM is working an amount of evil tar greater than
was anticipated by itkopponents—certa..ny greater than I
aotictpated myself, I unit, as an honest man, abandon
the attempt M relieve the existing distress." How ? By
remising the take seep that had been taken—. by the ini.
position et • moderate import duty upon corn." That was
the statement made early lad year and his lordship eon-
eluded by ening, . I trust your lonbhips will think that

truly be said that this policy is of a description that is est-

with the " Up, Guards, and at 'em." (Moen.) It is a

will bring such heartburninp, dissatisfaction, and ani-

sure, ha made no ehlatioe to any emwere they could carry
of that setae which did ant peeing the present
parliament. The point which he wished to bring
clearly before the house was, !that it was the
duty of the house to obtain in taus and in substance
the assurance of an intention to advise the erown to dissolve
se soon as the business necessary to the circumstances of the
moment could bo despatched. In regard to the great ques-
tion of protection, he confessed that, like others, he
laboured under • difficulty in comprehending clearly the
intention" of her Majesty's government, if he was to endea-
vour to reconcile together the various declarations that had
been made ; hot he thought upon the whole be was justified
is taking what had been stated by the right hon. gentleman
who had just sat down as a clear and definite indication of
the policy it was intended to pursue. The right hon.
gentleman said there WAS no intention to reverse the
policy of free-trade, and he did not think, as far
as a term was concerned that thew ought to tie
down his right hon. friend the Chancellor of the Duch
of Lancaster, which possibly was accidental. (Laughter.)
No, be had a reason, and ho hoped they would not sup-
pose he intended a taunt that he did not intend. He re-
membered that when in the proceedings of last year that
Lord Derby, when as his right hon. friend truly said, in-
formed him that it was his intention to propose the impo
sition of a moderato fixed duty on corn, at that very time
he himself said it was not his intention to reverse the free
trade policy, but to modify it in &certain degree. He was
alike opposed to the reversal and the modification of that
policy. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) He was indebted
to his right hon. friend for having told them so
frankly and plainly that it was the intention, so far as
the authority and influence of government was concerned,
, if not to reverse, yet to alter and to modify the free trade
policy. He entirely disclaimed the right to ask her Ma-
jesty s government what they would do in another parlia-
ment. In his opinion, according to the spirit of our con-
stitution, they had better leave another parliament to look
"fur its own concerns. What he wiutted to impress on the
house was, the absolute and imperative necessity of bring-
ing this great question to a final issue. Now, WA that an
unfair demand by those who knew that they were in a ma-
jority in that house ? Should they be told that no vote of
want of confidence, no vote for shortening the sup-
plies, had been passed in that house, and that
therefore, they must not press for this declaration.
He hoped the right hon. gentleman would not place them
in the disagreeable alternative of having to choose between
what might be called a factious opposition to government,
and, on the other hand, shrinking from the duty which
they were one and all called upon and determined to fulfil.
They might, with his right hon. friend, look, as ho thought,
with the greatest satisfaction and delight at the enormous
good which had been achieved, in the improvement in the
condition of the people that had taken place under free
trade, in the additional strength that had thereby been
given to all our institutions—to the additional strength, he
humbly • begged to say, that had been given to
that territorial aristocracy which had imagined it-
self deeply wounded by the adoption of free trade.
Sot while they pointed to these results let them recollect
they were not engaged in an argument on free trade. It
was to bring that question to a practical issue, it was that
if they could not in that parliament, yet that at least some
months hence in another parliament they might be &blot°
speak, if indeed the sense of the country was with them,
they might be able to speak of the doctrine of protection as
a thing past and gone, solemnly decided; after having been
conscientiously advocated through long years of opposition
by a great party, who, at the end of that period, submitted
it when in power to the judgment of the country with every
advantage that it could derive from the power and influence
of the govetnment, that it was fairly considered hy the country
after five year' of e ape Wooer and then adjudged by the I louse
of Commons after the arguments and debates which had
been had upon it, in which all theabilities and attainments
of that house would he employed and concentrated upon it.
This was the termination of their labours that they had in
view, and with a view to that determination, he, for his part,
was disposed to pees but ono demand upon the govern-
ment, a inederseemd just demand as he thought, namely,
that the Mies= et the country should be expedited with
all meals dimata, and that when that business bad been
so a the Brown should be advised to appeal to the
'met wilts view to bind the government as to what
ahead Is, or even to consider, but with a view to carry lmillead,
Ws greet arbitrament, rue far as itldepended on them, to that
Yews whisk the whole country, with ono heart and mind,

11,. B. COCHRANE said a few words expressive of his
eakeishment that those who would not assist the late go-
vernment to keep them in power, united with them to form
a factious opposition to the new ministry.
Lord PALMERSTON then rose and said—l am anxious
before this debate concludes to state very shortly, and in a
few words, the view which I, as an individual member of
this house, take of the present position of government, and ,
of the duty which I thank lies upon this house. The right
hon. gentlemen who have spoken from the Treasury bench
have disclaimed any wish to appeal to the forbearaneo of
this house. I, on the contrary, am willing, on my own
part, and I think the house ought to be willing on its
cart, to show to them all the forbearance which the pecu-
liar position in which they have been placed, I think,
in the present state of things entitles them to,
Their position is perfectly. anomalous, and in
principle unconstitutional. It is accidental. Therefore,
no blame attaches to them, but they are a minority pro-
posing and intending to carry on the babies, of the coun-
try in a House of Commons in which they form the
minority. It is obvious that that state of things could not
under ordinary circumstances last for any period of time
whatever. The course which a government under those
circumstances would have properly to pursue would be,
either to advise the crown to dissolve parliament and to
appeal to the *entry, er to resign office. They have
recently bees pined i power by the resignation of that party
which up tea recent period formed the majority, and still
form the imalerity of this house. A resignation, therefora,
would net Is consistent with the decision which they
formal when they undertook to form an administration.
Now a akeektioa at tho present moment in the state
of Weems le this house is avowedly by the
is af all pmts. an imposaibility. The house should
Menem give dim their forbearance until they can con-
duct the nerwesary business of the country so as to enable
them to dimply, parliament. They have stated some mea-
sures whisk they think of importance. With regard to
eine althea I entirely agree with my right hon. friend
wise Ms spoken recently from this bench, but there are one
or two which are of importance, and they met be carried.
The manures, whatever they may be. wick they propose
