LONDON, TUESDAY, NOV. 9.
THE programme of the coming session, put forward
yesterday, is of a somewhat consoling tendency, and as
such looks not a little strange in the organ chosen
for its promulgation. With the practice in shifting,
mystifying, and concealing, which the limes has
almost monopolised. it is not matter of astonishment
that it puts a bold face upon its official duties.
It announces the ministerial intention to abandon
the cause, which its columns have for years put forward
las the sole means of salvation for the country, with
I the coolness of a man who cuts his beet friend the day
after he has failed in the City, or relinquished office
at the West-end. The first important tact to be de-
clared from the announcement of yesterday is, that
the bullionists are driven out of their stronghold by
the unanimously expressed opinion of the country.
The authorityof parliamentis to be sought as an umpire
between differing views of details. The principle
of the bill of 1844 is abandoned. Ministers, we are
told, will come forward with an acknowledgment
that the Banking Act is not fully equal to the emer-
gency. This is the concession that is demanded for
the moment. The speculations of the Times as to the
course parliament is Idol/ to adopt are in all proba-
bility reckonings without its host.
We trust, for the credit of the country, that this
manifesto is the last which will be allowed to dole out
consolation or to urge to despair the commercial com-
munity of England. The reign of the clique that has
, brought the prosperity of the country to the verge of
