the Parliamentary recess.

WHAT the Duke of WELLINGTON and East Rat-
ford were to the Reform Bill of 1831-2, Lord PAL-
MERSTON and Mr. LOCKE KING'S County Franchise
appear destined to be to the Reform Bill of 1867-8.
It will be curious if, as Lord PALIIT.ESTON'S ad-
When seem to expect, he shall prove to be both the
Duke of WaxiAN (mu and the Earl GREY of the
new Reform movement.

Br that as it may, of this there 'can be no doubt,
that the time has arrived when farther altarabc. as
and improvements in our electoral system ran no
longer be postponed. Outside of Parliament the de.
mend for Parliamentary Reform is all bat universal ;

and inside of Parliament no ono evinces any incli-
nation to mist the demand. Who is to be the
statesman who is to embody in an acceptable measure
the general desire is not so apparent ; but provided
the measure be a good one, it is not probable that the
nation will quarrel with it on account of the donor.
But, to be acceptable, the new Reform Bill must
be a reality. The all but universal demand for Par-
liamentary Reform is not the result of any frivolous
desire of change, merely for the sake of change. It is
the consequence of a deep-rooted conviction that tho
House of Commons, as at present constituted,
is not • fair exponent of the national will.
This is owing to visions causes. In the
fret place, the Reform Act of 1832 excluded
from all participation in the franchise alaut
the whole of those classes whose only Cr pried's'
property is their industry. Now as thane einem
constitute a numerical majority of the pagnistion,
this is obviously a dangerous state of Whim All
