LONDON, TVIBDAY, MARCH 1.

IMO DIIIIY boo at length giros as his Adminie-
tredve Mauillsete, the sheet asesant of whit& is,
Writ it Wes eassifest sedan as to his round
peaky, either at home or abersd.
For more than an hour sad a half this met laud
of partisinestray talkers held the atiseliss el. a
seaward Howirouchained lestovening by do osabined

ahem of hie sever-foiliog monner,-aa4 the coojura-
tion he hums so well how to practise of titillating
Um curiosity of his hearers with the hope
of something to come. Bat the expectation
of his asdknee, in the present instenes,
wee doomed to disappointment. His friends
comae themselves with the reflection that his first
weevils as Prune Minister wee one that none of his
opponeste attempted to answer ; but the public
will only reoeive from perusing it the impression that
_ _ . . . ,

- .
kie them there was in it nothing to remember. For
the second time he has had the opportunity of trying
whether he could devise or put forward any new
or original view of national affairs worthy of the
name of a distinctive polity; and for the second time
he appears to be absolutely idealism and at fault.
By way of showing respect for the pronounced opi-
nion of the House of Commons he promises that an

answer shall at last be sent to A. Wumwaxes
insolent and calumnious despatch ; but how
little he appreciates the feeling that inspired
that memorable vote is betrayed in the avowal that
upon the tone of the rejoinder of the French Go-
vernment will mainly depend what step he and hie

colleague, will take regarding the edit indisposed

of Alien Bill. It meet be inferred tram tits that
we are not yet done with that odious and humi-
liating measure. After such public notice, it is so
longer disputable that the Bill—its tamper, mope,
and tendency—is virtually, nay, confeseadly, under
the consideration of the ilwrwA Calieet. If thy

eassider it worth • few plausible words, they
have rely to write them, and Lord DERBY easels
disposed to proceed with the Alien Bill. Lord
CLARZNDON tries, indeed, to persuade the French
Government that they have nothing whatever to
apologise for. Lord CLARZNDON declared Wt night
that Count Wstrwssrs oillemire statement, regard-
. Jag the legislation of England, wee strictly
" and literally true " ; and he also declared that
" any man who, understanding French, or having
" reed the tray elation, represents the despatch
" otherwise, is guilty of gross and wilful misrepre-
" mutation of its meaning." And this is the mu who
has been veered to occupy oft Forelp-allee for
the space of five years. Let the people understand
clearly what is their position. If they would arnsit
the farther progress of the Alien Bill they must
' speak out for themselves; for it la slur that
Lord MALWAVRT is but too ready to fail in with
the French policy of his predecessor.
llqually temporising, we are sorry to say, appears
tre be Lord DERBY'S intended course regarding
legislation for India. After pledging himself and
all his friends to the principle that before the
mutiny was crushed no fundamental change Auld
be attempted in the Government of the East, the
Conservative Premier now turns round and says
that he has directed Lord ELLEMBOROCOH to
frame, as quickly as possible, an India Bill of his
ewe. The excuse far this rapid and rash abjuration
of principles is an of deferent. to the judgment
of the Rouse of Commons. Bat this, unfortunately,
will not do. The large majority who rejected Mr.
Tumuli BAstao'n amendment can at the utmost be
said is have commuted to give Lord PALMIJISTOIN
leave We bring in has Bill. But everybody hums
that nets a vote was one essentially of &preliminary
character, and that it in no respect bound those who
concurred in it to the ementiel &storage( the lOW

sure. Bat what as nr all deal Lord HURST nem
