The objee's of the war he declared►

were not to succour oppressed nationalities, not to glin miiitari
renown, or to restore tin lustre of the country. Of the recelo
events of the war, they had to deplore the fall of Kars, o'
and of the treatment of its brave defenders, who had been deserted►,
and, perhaps, betrayed, it was the duty of:the Government to gig°
some ex r halation.

Lord PALMERSTON observed that it was not on aecou.3 of
any failing in the resources of the country, or in the exertions of the
hrmy, that the English Government had been led to assent to the

terms proplsed to Hassle by Austria. On the contrary, he Ws:
cedvince.l, that if the war were protracted, betty terms might b
obtained, but he thought that the objects of the 'C'r
would be gaine 1. and that the interests of tb,4
country would be best served, by the conclusion of prae:
if it could be arranged on safe and honourable terms.
agreed with Mr. Disraeli that the fact that the Legislature Ws-4
,
sitting would be of advantage in the course of the negociation,,
the House of Commons had to guard against too much intafereoC9
with the Government. The country might rest assured that the
min stry would not abandon any principle, or forego any °l)je40
that the country had a right t) expect. With regard to the f4i., of

Mr. ROEBUCK remarked that the speech of the noble Lord ":0
inconsistent, inasmuch as, while admitting the advanta?e of t[i
assistance of Parl.ament in the negotiations for pece, he had tlell'eet
to members the right to speak uon the subject, and had 01:df,
