The difficulty into which the commissioners
allowed themselves to be involved through Mr.
Costa's refusal to conduct the performance of Dr,
Bennett's muaio has been got over, " after a sort,"
by their having appointed M. Swinton to Oondkuit
this performance. Dr. Bennett received notice of
this step. having been taken without having had
any previous information on the subject, and at the
mime time ' he received a courteous note from M.
Sainton, expressing his hope that his appointmrnt
Would net be disagreeable to the composer. Dr.
Bennett at once wooded to the arrangement, and
AM since been occupied with M. Stanton in pre-
paring for the rehearsal. Botha matter is settled, and
'th•public have reason to be gliid that the joint labhur
of the first of English poste and the first of English
musicians is not to be thrown away. But this,
of* all, is only out*/ the kuot, not untying it.
It doss not in the least justify the conduct eithet of
Mr. Vesta or the Commissioneni—of the format in
allowing a vindictive feeling, arising out of a pri-
vate quarrel, to interfere with the fulfilment of a
public duty. which he had undertaken or of tie
latter, in yielding to a stipulation imposed
. on them
by. Mr. Costa, which they ought to have indignantly
rejected as an insult ; for it turns out that Mr.
Costa had made it a condition of his acceptance
of the office tendered to him, that he should be at
liberty to refuse to conduct the performance of a
work by Dr. Bennett ; and., what is still worse,
that Dr. Bennett should have been allowed
to complete his task in entire iguorance
that any such stipulation existed. Nor have
the commissioners acted rightly in their choice
of a substitute for Mr. Costa. We have great
respect for the character of M. Sainton, and great
admiration of his talent as a performer on the
violin. He has now and then conducted the band
at the Royal Italian Opera in Mr. Costa's absence
but he has never, so far as we have ever heard,
conducted a great choral performance in his life.
He is an able man, however, and we trust will get
through the business creditably. But the *hole
musical world knows that, failing Costa and Ben-
nett, there is one man who has a paramount title
to the employment in question—Alfred Mellon—
who is not inferior to either in all the qualities and
attainments of a chef d'orchestre, and who, more-
over is an Englishman—a circumstance not to be
disregarded on the occasion of a great national
celebration.
As to the case of Signor Verdi, it is quite evi-
dent that a man who holds the highest place among
hying dramatic musicians has been treated by the
commissioners with insult added to injury.

LONDON, FRIDAY, APRIL 25.

Me. °unison' rarely speaks without saying a
good deal that is well worth hearing, and his
speeches in Lancaahire this week having been un-
usually numerous, he has within the last few days
touched at some length upon several of the more

prominent social and political questions of the day.
Of course in these speeches there is much that is
_ _

admirable in thought and feeling, as well as most
forcible and eloquent in expression. In his address
on distributing the prizes to the Associated Me-
chanics' Institutes, for example, the passages on
self-education and the moral discipline of life are
as noble in feeling and purpose and am profoundly

true as anything that ever fell even from the right
hon. gentleman's lips. But we must, nevertheless,
confess to a feeling of disappointment in reading
over these various addresses, especially that deli-
vered yesterday morning, which from the occasion
as well as from the gravity of the subjects
discussed is by far the most important.
It is unsatisfactory to find that in proportion to
the real difficulties and momentous bearings of the
question discussed, the right hon. gentleman's
treatment of it tends to become vague, undecided,
and superficial. If Mr. °LAWTON/ were a com-
mon-place statesman, or occupied only an ordinary
position, there might be nothing to complain of in
this. Ile might be allowed, without criticism or
comment, to dismiss the most important and the
most debated political questions of the age with
a few decent commonplaces, no matter how false
or shallow they might be. But the Clix.trcem.oa
of the Excantwan is, as the address presented to
him yesterday truly states, " one of the foremost
" statesmen of the age," and to maintain this
position Ise must show himself capable not only
of carrying boldly oat a policy &beady
adopted, but of applying the primed*.
of higher statesmanship to the exigencies of new
conflicts, and of arriving at something like a sound,
comprehensive, and independent judgment on the
complex bearings of great questions still in debate.'
He must learn to look below the surface, and en•
demand the deeper grounds and more remote eon-
IllefFieDC4ll of the new problems that appeal to the
reason and conscience of public men, and are thus
pre eminently fitted to test both their principles
end their capacity. In a word, if Mr. GLADOTOXII
would retain his poeitioo, or rise to yet greater
power and influence, he must on all serious ques-
tions think and speak for himself, instead of
loosely repeating, from mere rhetorical habit, the
false and shallow commonplaces of those in whose
company he may happen to be.
It is in this respect that the right honourable

gentleman's speech in the Manchester Chamber
of Commerce yesterday is so deficient. On those
familiar topics about which all are agreed, and
which, therefore, require no discussion, the right
honourable gentleman's statements are full, lumi-
nous, and in the highest degree satisfactory. His
review of our recent commercial legislation and the
benefits of free trade leaves nothing to be desired,
except that it may not be too often repeated, or
permitted to exclude the full discussion of more
urgent questions. Economy in the public expendi-
ture is me of those questions ; but the right bon.
gentleman's references to it, though most pertinent
and seasonable, were, it must be confessed, less
satisfactory. We have been often told before,
and the country hardly needs the assurance,
that the public expenditure is in the most
unhealthy condition—that it has been forced
to an unnaturally high level, which cannot
for any length of time be safely maintained.
It would be more satisfactory to be assured that
Mr. GI-seeress is resolved to carry out his
convictions on this head, and attempt what lie
justly describes as the easy task of reducing to
practice the economy he preaches. But it is in
dealing with the great question of the time—the
struggle in America, that Mr. GLAIMSTONZ.:4 Man-
chester speech is so conspicuously shallow, weak,
and mischievous. This, too, is precisely one of those
profound and complicated political positions where
the deliberate judgment of an eminent public man
might be of essential survive in correcting the
errors of vulgar and sectional opinion. Mr. GLAD-
er,er. not only threw away a noble opportunity ,
of doing a public service of this kind, but actually
converted it into an occasion of evil. Instead of
attempting to take any just or comprehensive view
of the American struggle, he repeated in its worst
form the superficial and injurious judgment,
the weak and ignorant advice of those who,
taking what is miscalled an English point of view,
disinterestedly urge the Americans to separate
because they wish them divided. We do not
charge the right hon. gentleman with deliberately
intending to express all that his words °covey.
Under the sympathetic impulse of the moment he
evidently did not pause to weigh carefully his
words. But if an English statesman refers to
the question at all, he is bound to do so under
the full weight of the responsibility attaching
to his position. His words are certain to
affect powerfully the feelings of the American
people towards this country, though they
may have no influence whatever on their course
of action in their own. And the well-intended
but weak and foolish language of public saws
here has already done enormous mischief. It
has not only destroyed the influence of English
opinion in the United States, but roused a feel-
ing of indignation against this country. This Is
certainly nut to be wondered at. In the crisis of
a tremendous struggle for social, industrial, and
political freedom—a struggle for nalisoal east-
once, since it is for all that maksa adIP exist-,
cave of any value—the people of So North

' have been coolly told by English statemi4l.
" There is really DC4124 to fight I
" and if there were, fish • would be • *edema
" You had much better semis at oneeln a
" peaceable way." This is ' undoubtedly the
weakest, wont, and most insulting form of inter-
ference that could possibly be Imagined. What
abouki ce have thought if sack advice bad been
tendered to us by • neighbouring Power during
the Indian mutiny, for example or on the cooesicon
el any political difficulty with Ireland f The ad-
vice might be offered in the most friendly spirit,
and from the best motives of friendship and
humanity. But we should of course have re-
jected it with indignation, es little better
than mockery and insult. Mr. Chancrous
says the North asked our sympathy, and that
sympathy means taking a side, and that we could
not do this for fear of offending the slave oligarchy
of the South. But, in fact, the North have never
asked anything at mu hands but to be let alone.
They did, no doubt, expect we should sympathise
with their determination to prevent the forcible
establishment of a slave civilization, a government
and polity where slavery was to be the " head
" stone of the corner." But they could least of
all have expected that species of interference which
consists in weal and miaohievonsattempta to break
this righteous resolve and diseourege the attempt
to carry it out. Mr. GIADOTONZ repeats once
more the prediction that the North cannot
conquer the South. We have heard In various
quarters a number of predictions of the same sort
ever since the war began. They have all been

falsified by its progress. What can be the good
of repeating them t They simply exasperate
popular feeling in America spinet ourselves.
Experience has proved that this is the only and
inevitable result. Whether the North can conquer
the South or not, it is able to prevent
the establishment of a social state incompatible
with its own industrial civilization. And it is
bound by the most sacred obligations to do this at
any cost. Were the free American people selfishly
to shrink from the inevitable struggle, or could
they be tempted by any love of gain or ewe to
abandon it before the end was 'soured, they
would, in the just and shrilling words of Mr. J. S.
Mri r, "be exposed to the pity and disdain of '
" posterity." We can only express profound
regret that any statesman in this country should
be capable of offering them any such weak and
unworthy counreL
