Impatience, and fa objection to a leap in the dark.
There is the principle which is at the base of our

But while men of note in the Borne of Commons resolve
not to be hoodwioked the domino is still in vogue in the

ing at Mandrester of 40 or 50 repreeentatives of branch
reform emanations as an organised hypocrisy, a
theatrical fame. The man bad bees drilled by the

Mr. Bentinek, the late member for Norfolk, io a letter
to-day joke the Times In attacking the government bill.
Mr. Bentinek's main position is that the oounties are at
present too little represented in oompariron with the
towea, that this la the greatest uterus.* in our represents- i
tive system, and that the government bill, could it be made
law, would, by introducing, among other thinp, a new
urban element Into county ooestituencies, make bad worse.
In the bourse of his biter Mr. Bentinck deseribse the aim

The notion that the government may swept the resointion

The H.sid declares that the House of Commas feels
itself Lasalle& by the government proposal, and so no evening
passes without notice of a new and hostile amendment.
The house fade as the oouotry doss, that the riddance of the
question on whisk it is resolved is an iatesms relief. The
rejection of the bill can only be regarded as a declaration
of no confidence, bat the lenient followers of Lord Rumen
