rests. And theses" precisely the roproseutetives
whom Toryism fears most, because it eamnot
atronise there. Such are the candidates who
hate lately dragged the ascretsof illegitimate falls--
IMO into the light, and who have defied all
the arts and mount's of corruption. While, to
example, the Tory elitists member for Wood-
stock invokes the support of " the labossing
man," Mr. Beenertir, the Liberal eetailii
date, appeals with Just madmen to abs
past policy of hie party on the qrsdieri
of free trade, of religious liberty, of the settle.:
meat law, the game laws. end shwa reSse.l
and he tells tbeelestore of that Deal hareegh that
they have to choose "between goverment in the
" interest of the few. and gonniassat in the in-
" tercet of the many; beiween a oleos policy under
" the reckless leedereldp of Mr. Driateu, and a
national policy under the enlightened leadership
" of Mr. Cizenrroire; between an impotent sad
" hopeless toleration of eliding aril, and a poll-
" Usti creed which proseleas a better Mere to
" you and to your chiliken." This is plain
speaking. and, contrasted with the uncertain sound
of some Liberal speeohesat the lest general election,
it announces a new epoch of legislation. W.
Belont's speech at Edinburgh yesterday, and the
occasion on which it was delivered. mark still
more strongly the assured and peaceful triumph
of those great principles which Toryism denounoed
as " revolutionary agitation." when, with Cos-
DIN, he was presohing theta on platforms, but
which Toryism now. in the mouth of Mr.
OATHOZNIII HARDY, presumes to Gall its own.
If Air. Brun= is taunted for indulging in retro-
spection, he may well reply that it is from
the ttudy of the past history of pol Vest
parties that the new electors may Icte-n
the surest leavens for their guidance in the contests
of the future.

Just when the columns of election news are get-
ting a Iltle dull, we fool really grateful to Mr.
GAIIIOE2OI HARDY for that charm'xig 43000 of pa-
rental pride and filial virtue at Rye. Her M.V.
sase's Ministers Lave certainly not abused " the
" stump" of late, and the Home Stemaritte,
as rcireeentative of the University of Oxford,
but who happens to be' the orator of the admlnia-
tration. inubt have held his peace and male no sign
till the meeting of parliament, had not the impar-
t ant borough of Rye given him the opportunity of
ar:ng, for the first time in his life, a political ape asth
hem his son. It is satisfactory to know that his
sews performance on this memorable OCCIIiO3 hat
not decreased the; leasurehis fathorh is taken in him
from childhood. The somewhat abridged report of
the young Mr. HARDY'S speech only permits us to
°beers° that in his opinion the disestablishment of
the Irish Church will " affect the Church of
" England," and that the poor man will lose
the only church he can enter without
payment. Mr. HARDT, the younger, is
also " for the repeal of the malt tax," as a
youthful legislator, with, we hope, plenty of good
years before him, has a better right to be than
his elders who don't see their way out of
the Income-tax, and especially the elders of his
own party, who have been raising the national
expenditure at the rate of three millions a year.
However, we must confess that we have an Eng-
lish weakness for domestic comedy on any stage,
and neither the heavy father nor the hopeful son
shall user find us more disposed to laugh than
to cry at these public passages of mutual endear-
ment and admiration.

THE CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION.

TnE years which have rolled by s!nce the famous

" Third Report " was published, and specimen ex-
amination papers were given to the world, has not
materially altered the claims or the duties of the

Civil Service

The differences of

opinion between the heads of departments and the
Civil Service Commissioners aro less frequent and

lees vehement than they used to be; and some
correspondence between the Posrussrza-Gesz-
NAL and the Dean's-yard Secretary, which
took place last year, will seem strangely
flat to dime who remember Lord )(mans-
MI T'S valiant passage of arms on behalf of
the Foreign-office candidates, or Mr. PANIZZI'S
sturdy insistence upon his own will with respect to
the admission of assistants to the British Museum.
The Civil Commissioners are more pliant than for-
_

merly ; and departmental chiefs are less disposed
to ignore their authority. After saying in a give'
case lEst June, "it is not easy to see how, waded
" these circumstances, certificates of quelificatioi
" can be granted as desired [by the Duke of MONT,
" aosz] consistently with the order in council

they announce themselves " prepared, with
" the view of meeting as far as possible the
" wishes of the Panics/ma-G=3am, to relax
" for the present occasion the established
" rules." The concession was a sensible one,
but we are much mistaken if it would
have -been made a few years ago. The
Civil Service Commission has, however, got beyond
the " new broom " stage, and can afford to temper
an tffici(ncy which was somewhat ferocious with
flee considerations which obtain in ordinary

human affairs. The department has done its work
well in the main, and gross ignorance is no longer
ossible in our Civil Service. The complaint of the
secretary of a public office to a minister, " The
" clerk you've scat us can't write," and the la-
conic reply from Downing-street, " Teach him :"
are no longer possible. It is amusing,
Show-
ever, to contrast the effects promised by
Service reformers, as certain to follow upon
the Establishment of the commission, with
what has actually taken place. Patronage
was to Le gradually abolished, but by the sys-
tem of nominating three candidates for one
pest it has increased; and the only partieul►r in
which the expectations of the reformers have boon
fulfilled is that the Government offices have now
a better educated clues of clerks. The country
is indebted to the Civil Service Commissioners
for having relieved the public service' of a stigma;
and this year's report simply records the applica-
tion of principles already admitted end en-
forced.

PRIVATE DILLS IN PARLIAMENT FOR TUE PORTII-

profession that the number of private bills of verions de-

will much exceed the number antielpeted some short
time since, and though there may not 1w quite in many
WI last session, viz., 225, the number will doubtless be
