army, had been windy called for by the country, sanctioced
by parliameat, and weld into effect by susexerive admi-
nistration*. It use necessary that we should have the means
of proteding our own shores widths vast interests which we
had in all parts of the Weald: gad be °outmoded that we had
not lager naval and *pets otelliehmeete than were ab-
solutelylrequisite forklift vents d the country. Whether
or not the state of things next year might be so far different
from what It we now as to admit of a reduction of the
general expenditure, be held that the resolution, worded se
It was, sod applying literally to the establishments for the
present year, was one which, if the house agreed
to it, they would be stultifying themselves, and
reversing the decisions to which they came when
the matters in detail were submitted to their
consideration. The noble lord 000tineed : I
think the amendment which I propose oombiees • statement
of opinions which are maintained on both sides of the
house. We propose that the house shall lay that it is the
duty of the government to Andy economy in the public
service of the country ; but that it is also the duty of the
country to provide adequately for its defence and the
maintenance of our interests abroad. I don't think there
are any gentlemen who will dispute that—or rather I see
that there are, for theright boo. gentleman's (Mr. Walpole's)
amendment omits the protection of the interests of this
country abroad. (" Hear, hear," and " No, no.") He
simply confines it to defences at home. (No, no.) Well,
bon. members can read it for themselves. (" Read, read.")
The Opt hoe. gentleman tame, it is true, the preamble of
his motion from us, but when be comes to his enacting
clause be only slips it in by way of • parenthesis.. (Great
laughter.) It looks altogether like an after-thought, which
the right hon. gentleman has not had time enough to weave
it into the substance of Ms resolution. (Hear, hear.) It
bas been argued as if the expenditure of the country had
of late years been increasing at au enormous rate ; whereas
without the stimulus of resolutions the government have
already introduced important reductions. Thus the expel-
diture this year is 1,800,0001. less than that of 1861, and it
oThere was also •
three millions and • half less than the expenditure of two
r these years ago.
in the taxation of the country. The income tax had been
diminished, and several mull duties have been abolished
in connexion with the French treaty. I claim therefore for
the government the assent of the house to the propo-
sition which they submit in the shape of an amend-
ment to the resolution of my hocoulable friend. I must
say that under this resolution, if suppoeted by the house.
the government will feel themselves bound narrowly to look
into the various estimates which they will have to P
next year ,• and if the circumstances of the woricirare
them to think that • reduction can be made, they will only
be too glad to make such a reduction. (Cheers.) But
what I object to is that we should be tied blindfold in re-
gard to • future which we cannot foresee, and that we
should be told blushed school boys to do a certain exercise,
" Write down what you are told, and mind you do it before
the new year, be the circumstances what they may." I
think such • course is unbecoming for • parliament
to ask • government to adopt. If par
the lia-
ment has ieirovernment which it cannot trust,
but in obliged
to bind by prospective resolu-
tions,it would be moth better that it should get rid
of the government and choose another which it can trust
rather than cripple the bands of the government by a MUSS
which must lower them in the opinion of the country and
all the world by fettering their hands—(cheers)—in matters
with regard to which no human fortnight can avail.
The following motion (Mr. Standeld's) was then put from
the chair : " That, in the opinion of this house,
the national expenditure is capable of reduction
without compromising the safety, the iodependeros,
or the legitimate influence of the country ;" folioe:a
Lord Palmerstun's amendment—"That this house, deeply
impressed with the necessity of economy in every d
meat of the stab* is at the Name time mindful of its obli-
gation to provide for the security of the country at borne
and the protection of Ha interests abroad ; that this house
observes with satisfaction the decrease which has already
been effected In the national expenditure, and Ought that
such further diminution may be made therein as the future
state of things may warrant"
Mr. DISEADLI observed that there was • material
Gioia/ion in Lord Palmerston 's speech. He had made no
reference to the meant condition of oar !Muses, which •
member of the Lowermost had declared to be unhealthy,
and it was the belief of the people that it was dangerous
which had celled the attention of parliament to the ex-
penditure of the oountry. He argued that our home
defences were amp* and in relation to our in-
terests abroad he observed that the reel cause
of the influence of England was the belief that it
was the only country which, when it entered Into a quarrel
for an adequate sad worthy object, never ceased its efforts
until it accomplished its aim ; but if our finances weee
weakened the prime source of our influence in other coun-
tries wield be impaired. In considering the means
of reducing expenditure, be insisted that a vast
sum appeared to be unaccounted for; that a re-
duction might be made without affecting the efficiency
of our defences at home or abroad ; that the money
voted for iron ships bad been diverted to other purposes,
and that we were entering at this moment into • very
large expenditure for military and naval purposes, not
necessary for securing our shores or for the maintenance of
our influence abroad. He denied that there was anything
in the state of Europe at present that would justify extra-
ordinary armaments. Europe was tranquil, because Europe
was exhausted and impoverished by military expenditure.
'S'l here was Austrian finance ?—where Beasian ? What
was the condition even of that Imperial France which
was thrown before our face as a bugbear on every out-
sloe ? These, then, were times for economy, and for a
scrutinising revision of expenditure, because, from the state
of our finances, we were forced to consider the subject and
face our cooditioa, and because be believed that revision
could be made with a view to retrenchment, without in
the least degree impairing or compromising either our de-
fences at home Or our influence and interests abroad.
The necessity for • reduction of expenditure was also
evidenced by the sufferings prevailing in the country,
as Indicated by the returns of the Board of Trade.
The right bon gentleman continued:—Do you think that
the fact of a prime minister getting up and saying that any
man who speaks of retrenchment on account of exist-
ing distress expresses want of confideoce in the minister, will
be tolerated by a suffering people? What if month after
month for eight months, without parliament, you have this
oontiouous state of suffering—whet if month after month you
have the people lees employed, trade declining, the revenue
still continuing to decline without any means by which the
terror and apprehensions of the people can be lessened'
Will it ruder oven the noble lord a popular minister'
Win the people my "We will go to those
who proffer us advice? (Ministerial chasers and
counter cheers.) Parliament has been silent—we
will go to the platform. Statesmen have deserted us—we
will go to the agitators. " That is what they will do. The
right boo. gentleman the Secretary of State, with too
quick a sneer, thought that he had detected me to some
petty political manceurre. I regret that • man in so eminent
a situation and in the present condition of the country
should not have elevated his wind and enlarged his vision,
and not have stooped to so smell • consideration. (Cheers.)
I should like to see the countenance of the Secretary of
State for the Home Department after this suffering conti-
nues during the long but cheerless autumn and the dark
sod gloomy winter. Will it be any answer then to the
suffering people of this country—to the various classes
which may naturally be alarmed by this suffering—will it
be any answer to say there has been • vote of confidence
passed by the House of Commons, tuned by •
surprise, moved by the First Minister himself, and
expressed in the fiercest language ? Forced to an
opinion by the noble lord who has proposed
this awkward and shambling vote of confidence in his
own goverement, we say it is desirable that the ob-
ject should be specifically indicated, and the policy plainly
declared, and, therefore, it was that this resolution was pro-
posed by my right hon. friend (Mr. Walpole). But my right
hon. friend appears to have been appalled by the address
made to him by the noble lord. Whet are we to do under
these circumstances? If oar objects were such as the noble
lord supposes—if we were really making an assault on the
Treasury bench, I should suppose it were perfectly possible to
lead us on ; but as our object was to assert • policy at • mo-
ment of greet perplexity—a policy which we thought was
temperate arid practical, and one which we believe the house
must ultimately adopt, and which we think public
opinion will sanction and recognise—without supposing the
noble lord would choose to pervert an effort of that kind
into • challenge for the government of the country—l am
not surprised that my right boo. friend was shaken by the
statement of the noble lord, which did not appear to me,
though loudly supported by those behind him, to be one
that recommended itself to the perfect sense of propriety of
the House of Commons, but which has no doubt produced
considerable effect ; because, if the noble lord really means
to say, while be himself recommends to us • resolution
upon the state of the public finances, that it Is
on the part of the House of Commons, when
it endeavours to make that resolution
an attempt to overthrow the government, no doubt, we
should &din carrying it, and I cannot enema from myself the
injurious consequences that might ensue from the failure of
such • resolution. If we had the intentions which the
noble lord imputes to as, I do not think I should bays
asked my right boo. friend to move his resolution ; but it
Dein the object of all parties to pees • resolution which
should recommend itself to the country and piece the
house in that honourable position it should bold, I am not
prepared myself to recommend any coulee that should risk
a defeat. To-morrow all of us will be eugaged,l believe, and
there aria peat many gentlemen who will tabs more M-
urat is {het bale pastime than myself. They will
all have their favourites ; and I hope they will not be in
the position in which I felt ou finding my favourite bolting.
(Laughter.) If they are in that position, they can perhaee
understand my feeling', and sympathise with me. I
was extremely anxious that that resolution should have
been accepted by the house, and I confess myself that I bad
not much doubt that the noble lord would have takes it.
(Hear, hear.) I think with that resolution we should have
had something to guide us—some object liedicated—some
policy temperately expressed, and only to acted upon if
the circamstanoes of the country justified it. I cannot
doubt that had that resolution beet esanimouely adopted
by the house you would have had wet year on those
benches a govssament, no matter of what materiels formed
_-except ia the ease of the hon. member for Halifax, when
we might perpetual war—a government which
would have=tted the expenditure of this country to
• severs neighs with the view of that retrenchment which
is perfectly eoweisteet with the efficiency of the public,
service.

IT is a mistake to suppose that the Derby week
is uncongenial to party conflicts in Parliament.
Looking back over some ten or twenty years, one
finds that, whether from the contagion of the pre-
vailing excitement in the racing and betting world,
or because it is that period in the session which
answers to the third act in a drama when the " col.
linen " takes place, or to that critical moment in
operations of war when the hostile armies can no
longer remain in presence of each other without
fighting—or from whateverother cause—it haa hap-
pened more than once or twice that the adjourn-
ment for the Derby was an armistice on the
eve of decisive combat in the Commons. To-
day the rival chieftains and their followers pile
arms, and meet as comrades and Britons on
the bright elastic sward of Epsom, like the
shadows of the warriors and hunters whom
the poet beheld in the Elysian fields. A vigorous
" whip," and an imminent division, give a pungent
zest to the desipiacence of a day. This year, how-
' ever, the whole session is an armistice, and there is
DO fear of any independent or expectant mem-
ber bringing on a general engagement. No one
has ever dreamt of the possibility of a ministerial
crisis this year. Mr. STAMM= meant no mischief
to the guarantors of the Exhibition, and "the trade"
had nothing to fear from Mr. WALPOLE. It was all
an affair of volunteers. There was some little diffi-
culty about the generalship to begin with ; some
little uncertainty about the numbers of the corps
on the ground. Was it to be a few simple evolu-
tions and a marching past, with the common vale-
dictory compliments from the Inspector-Goneral
Or a sham fight, in which each corps should insist
on being victorious, and none should consent to be
the "enemy" I Let professional cynics say what
they will, the martial show last night was something
more than a parade, and the splutter of firing
which made so respectable a mockery of war sounds
very like a cannonade at a distance. The fate
of Mr. STANSFELD'S motion in the House matters
little ; whether it was to be politely bowed out
amidst approving smiles, or smothered in general
acquiescence, or disarmed by the zealous seconds
from opposite sides, or superbly set aside by the
" enlightened dictator " of debate, it had done its
work when it had exacted from a Whig Minister
and a Tory Opposition contending vows and promises
of retrenchment. The public will ponder in silence
all that Mr. WALPOLE, and Lord PAIILLEBTON, and
I Mr. Dreasma have to say in that sense, and will
accept with satisfaction the homage of rival states-
men to the public opinion which judges aIL
It is worth while to note what an effectual
solvent is one honest public man who is in earnest,
land unattached to the old political parties. For
some days Mr. STANAPELD'S Resolution was visited
with grave rebuke for its presumption. Then it
was tacitly agreed to pooh-pooh it for its vague-
ness and inconclusiveness. It had the double and
fatal merit of compelling the Tory leaders to lay
their cards on the table, and Ministerial Whigs to'
answer to the bidding, of their rivals. it was a
flag for true Liberals to rally to, without defection
from the ranks of their own party, or desertion to
the hostile lines. It was broadly consistent with
the most spirited and energetio foreign policy,
with all the exigencies of national defence, and
with all the articles of the Liberal faith. Capable
of acceptance by men of pesos, and at least not
repugnant to the men of action, it insisted on a
positive reduction of public expenditure, and not
merely declared in favour of eventual reductions
at some more convenient season. Ingenuous
Liberals out of doors may be surprised that Lord
faususroN should not have cheerfully endorsed
Mr. STANSFELD'A Resolution, instead of drawing a
promissory note of his own for the acceptance of
the House, and treating any other demand as a
want of confidence. The explanation is to be
found in the simple fact that Lord Psursaerou is
not the chief of a Liberal party, properly so called,
but rather of that intermediate and mixed majo-
rity of Liberal.Coruiervatives, or trimmers, as 'they
wereonce denominated, among whom may be counted
all the Liberals who are not Liberals and all the
Tories who are not Tories, all the satisfied and
indifferent, all the personal admirers of un-
quenchable animal spirits and immortal clap-
trap. This is the real majority in the present
House of Commons—the majority, that is, which
determines its character and conduct ; and Lord
Piaaczarrox's amendment, which, as a substantive
motion, was contemptuously agreed to without a
division, after seven hours of talk, represented
Min happily than Mr. Wsi.roxz's or Mr. ROW
aun's the comprehensive principles and motives
of such a majority. With just a word or two
that might be taken as an expression of confi-
dence in his Government, there was something
that looked like a promise for the future, and
something that looked like a profession of faith
for the present—and yet neither a principle nor
a promise that can be brought in judgment against
the author of the amendment hereafter, if "the
" future state of things " should fail to answer to
his
