LONDON, SATURDAY, APRIL 26.

LORD DERBY, we suspect, has become aware that
a majority is the House of Commons is not to be had
on the subject of Bare, and he is consequently de-
sirous to extricate his followers if possible from the
peril of a damaging defeat upon Mr. WHITESIDE'S
motion. That rough and ready partisan was eager
at the commencement of the sersion to attempt some

mar ceuvre in the direction of the fallen fortress. To
execute rhetorical capers among the ruins, and quote
denunciatory vetoes over the dead, would at any time
have been no more than pastime to the learned
scheme ; but when the noise and dust that might be
raised seemed capable of creating serious annoyance
and distraction to kis political antagonists, the
temptation was irresistible; and in point of
fact Mr. WHITE.IDS has for some time been with
difficulty restrained from performing the obsequies of
which be was the self-appointed undertaker, and
from which he promised himself much excitement
and notoriety, if not something more. But the cool
and sagacious hand that loves to pat upon the back
restless and reckless adherents of this Dort, perceived
that, however vexed and grieved all good men were
at the sad catastrophe of the campaign in Asia, they
were in no mood to see the lamentable truth di.-
totted and disfigured for mere personal purposes by
sneh a muter of exaggeration and burlesque as the
memb* for Enniskillen; and even on his own aide
of the House there were many calm•judging
and right-feeling men who, while they deplored
the fate of the garrison of Kars, refused to shut their
eyes and ears to the collateral canoes of the disaster,
or to fix the exclusive responsibility upon those who
could probably have in no case averted it. Week
after week was thus allowed to pass over, and no
sound was heard of the threatened Irish cry. The
pendency of negotiations was the pretext for succes-
sive postponements; but when at length the Paris
Conferences had come to au end, Mr. Witivesins
could no longer be kept quiet, and in au evil hour he
urged that an early day should be given bim for his
long promised motion. Lord PALMERSTON, with
malicious urbanity, at once named Mooday next-
Great was the unthinking joy of the impatient
speech-maker; great the disappointment of the mote
sober and discriminating politicians who sit
around him. What was to be done To let the
motion be brought forward as a party move, with the
certainty of defeat upon the cenoter-cese that must
infallibly be made in their own defence by Ministers,
would tend materially to damp the rising spirits of
opposition, and to efface in a single night the recol-
lection of many small reverses sustained by Govern.
ment since the commencement of the present session.
let how cou.d the challenge so vauntingly thrown
down and so cheerfully accepted, be openly with-
drawn ! The puzzle seemed complete.
Lord DERBY himself was called in to the rescue.
It was just the sort of case in which the peculiar
talents of his lordship are supposed by him to find
their most fitting scope and opportunity for exercise.
The head of the Tory party loves what familiarly is
called " a dodge;" and his clouded brow seldom be-
trays so much of genuine glee as when, in the moves of
parliamentary obese, he fancies that he has done his
antagonists. In the present instance the sporting Earl
seems to have set about the business with no common
care. Intimations were sent forth several days ego
that he desired a conference with his political friends
at St. James's-square. The morning of the day for
which Mr. Wturasine's motion stands specially
fixed, was appointed for the meeting. Meanwhile,
by the mouth of his trustiest lieutenant in the Upper
Home, notice was given of an intention to move •
similar resolution there on Friday, the 2nd May.
The drift of all this can hardly be mistaken. If Lord
Diane believed there was a chance of detesting
Ministers on the question in the Commons, he would
['ever have forced Lord MALMESBURY to re.produce the
proposition in the Lords,where it is notoriously viewed
With aversion and repugnance by some of the most
distinguished of his own adherents. Thirty years of
experience in party politics have not been altogether
' thrown away open the ex-Premier, and they must
have been, if when a victory was possible in the
decisive branch of the Levieleture he wantonly
risked the smile issue in the indecisive one. The fact
of Lord MALMESBURY2 notice about the fell of Kars
speaks for heed. It simply means that somehow or
other the case is to be taken out of the unsafe hands
in which heretofore it presumably lay ; and that
Lord DERBY thinks it better to hezind a defeat in
the Chamber to which he himself belongs than to
afford Lord PALMERTON a triumph in that whose
deliberations he ministerially leads. In what precise
form the affair may be arranged we do not affect
to know. Perhaps, to save appeeracoes, and to pre-
vent the long-bottled effervescence of Enniskillen
from going utterly to loss, the attention of the Com-
mons may be occupied for some hours on Monday
night by an ostensible discussion of the campaign in
Asia Minor and in nisipence criticisms on the des-
patches of Lord STRATFORD and General WILLIAMS.
But no serious meaning will any longer attach to the
debate. should it take place at all ; and we have no
doubt that the assembled Derbyites will have pre-
viously been told in the morning by their chief, that
no party interest is felt by him in the matter, and
that every gentleman is to hold himself at liberty to
vote for or against the motion as may to him seem
meet. Whether, under theme altered circum-
stances, the quondam BolicitoreGeneral for Ireland
will persist in his motion fat purposes of display,
we cannot even conjecture. lie may possibly
think it upon the whole more decorous
sod discreet to await the decision of the Houle of
Lords--a palpable subterfuge, but not the less likely
to be resorted to on that account. Or he may make
a flourish about unaltered convictions of duty, and
go splash into water he has been warped is too shallow
to keep him afloat. The choice of alternatives is imma-
terial: for, if our anticipations prove to be correct,
nothing will come of the proceeding.
Lord Diasy, however, is not the man we take him
for if, having the rank and file of his eanguine and
expectant party before him, he neglects the oppor-
tunity of haraoguing them on the position in which
they fled themselves, and on the prospects of the
future. It is long since he has ventured on the
enunciation of any broad or intelligible principle
of Conservative action. The absolute rejection by
the country , when last appealed to by him, of the po-
licy he had formed a Cabinet to carry into etc',
probably exercised a sedative influence on his rash
temperament, and led him to hesitate much before
attempting again to gusts at the mind of the coun-
try. Bat the time has some when Toryism craves
a new end. Its instincts, its pagan., and its into-

nab are in the mitin what they always were; bet the
superstitions wherein it trusted have beet one by
oh dispelled ; and at the present hour wo man home
what new belief or exhumed relics of old faith may
be set up in the place of what baa vanished before
our eyes. If a general election were to take place
to-morrow,what Beg would Conservatives in town and
county wave as a sign P After many ill-received at-
tempts Mr. DISRAELI has apparently renounced the
task of deciding—will no' Lord DERBY try P

SHORT-TYMPIRED gentlemen, who have been de-
traced halt-an-hour in a " lock "at Temple.bar or
London-bridge, or by the unpnnctuality of a railway
train, explode in letters to their favourite newspapers.
In obedience to the same law of nature the mis-
haps of the great Naval Review day have converted
one sitting of the Lords and two sittings of the COM.
mons into "indignation meetings." Men might in-
fer that noble Lords and hooonrable Members can
have little earnest work on hand when they can
spare so mach time for grumbling about the locative-
Dienes, of an overgrown Derby day. Bat English-
men are all more or less humourists, and his.
amorists are addicted to treat matters of im-
portance with affected nonchalance, and dis-
cuss trifles with ironical gravity. Many important
questions have this tendon been pooh-poohed by a
House of Commons that can find logic and impas-
sioned eloquence for the discomforts of overcrowded
excursion trains and the great sky-rocket question. It
cannot, however, be said that Sir Caaat.zs WOOD is
entitled to much synipaeby for the badgering be has
had to undergo. In the .flair of the Naval Review he
and his colleagues appear to have undertaken respon-
sibilities which no one had a right to impose upon
them. It was mcst proper, when such a fleet ren-
dezvoused at Bpithead after a war, that the boys.
lIEIGN should inspect it in person. Oa such an
occasion her Ministers of State could not decorously
be absent; and it was only i jest trilinte to our
brave tars that her MAJESTY should be flanked
right and left by the Holmes of Parliament,
as they happened to be in session at the time.
Classical precedent ought not to be disregarded.
Tee EMPEROR of the Flatten told his soldiers on
their return from the Crimea, that he had come
out to welcome them, as the Roman Senate, at the
close of a campaign, were accustomed to receive
their warriors at the gates of Rome. We have not
yet, like our compendious neighbours across the
Channel, epitomised our Senate into one person—a
proms which reminds one of a reply, at an Irish
militia review, to the question, " Where are the
Ballyrnddery yeomanry ?" " I urn the Ballyrud-
dery yeomanry." It follows from these premises,
that on the occasion of the Naval Review the Admi-
ralty were bound to provide for the transit and as
of the SOVEREIGN. her Court, her
Ministers, and the members of the Legislature.
But having done this, there was no call upon
them to encumber themselves with the charge
of the transit and accommodation of the aight.sseing
public, who might with all propriety have been left
to take care of themselves', as they do on the days of
the Derby and the Ascot cup. By cumbering them-
selves with such a charge, Ministers converted a
great State ceremony into a Mammoth Swan-bop-
ping. Hitherto Englishmen have provided for their
own jaunting., and it is well that they should con-
tinue to do so. Do potent et eireenses is the cry of
slaves; Englishmen pay for their own pie-nice.
Last night Sir CHARLES WOOD bought to throw the
responsibility of the day's misadventures on the
management of the railway; Mr. CHAPLIN, in torn,
to hand it over to the iron contractors; for oar pert—
no od•nce to our patrone,the public—we are inclined
to maintain that they have themselves to thank for
any discomfort they may have experienced. There
is a rather unreasonable disposition abroad, to expect
an impossible amount of enjoyment at an impossibly
low expenditure of time or mosey. Steamboats and
railways have done much, but they cannot do
everything. Joint-stock steamboat jaunts and
monster excursion trains are enormous dela-
kiollll. People are packed together like negroes in the
middle passage; they have to elbow and fight their
way to their meats of little ease as if they were strug-
gling for existence; and they have so time tomes any-
thing or to eat or drink with comfort. Such pleasure
excursions are a multiplication of the disappointment
experienced by the Irishman who fancied a ride in a
sedan,and who (the chairmen having taken the bottom
out) vowed at the end of his promenade that "but
for the honour of the thing he might as well have
walked." Our modern pleasure-waken have a more
"frugal mind" than even Mrs. JOHN Glum of im-
mortal memory, and the consequence is that they
have no enjoyment. On Wednesday the great mass
of the sight-seers, to save money and lose as little
of their business time 14 possible, would do no more
than run down from London to Portsmouth or
Southampton in the morning and return at night.
At the very utmost, they started the day
before. The unavoidable consequence was, a
jam on the railway, and want of accommodation

at the only two plaoes into which the crowds precipi-
tated themselves. There were only two lines of railway
for the hordes of passengers, and one of them was
scarcely used. Human beings are unfortunately not
endowed with the contractile power which MILTON
ha. attributed to his bad angels. They are subject to
the laws of space and time, and no mere mortal nul-
-1 way could expand itself to meet the demands of Wed-
nesday—for that, it would have required the qualities
lof the fairy Peri Banos is magic tent. The moral of
the whole stair is, that when people are bent upon
distant pleasure excursions they must make up their
minds to pay • fair prize in time and in money.
Immense crowds can co•gregat, with little expendi-
ture of either in Hyde-park. Evan Epsom is within
the range of possibility, though the crush and colli-
sions of the road or rail on a Derby day are not
over-pleasant. Sot, even with railways and steam-
boats, Portsmouth and Southampton are beyond the
range of a comfortable twelve hours' drive, out and
home, for a great part of London—to say nothing of
London's country emitting.

We leers with some little surprise that there are
pimp!, who giee credit to and are alarmed by the
statement or a United States journal, that the
English and French Governments are shoot to send
military forces to Central America, for the purpose
of expelling the " Filibustiers," who ate now, like
the Morgans of another century, attempting to
dominate in the Spanuelit main. So far as the Bri-
tish Government is concerned, there is not a word
of truth in the allegation ; and we give the French
Cabinet credit for more prudence than to incur inch
metes* expense.

The question between the &Wish and United
States Cabinet', as to the Clayton-Bulwer treats, re.
mains in &Wm quo. The British Government is wil-
ling, and most desirous, to refer all the points in die-
puts to arbitration ; It places no limitation on the
selection of an Arbitrator, and it will be bound by
the delusion of whoever la chosen.
