have they been unmindful of the causes that

They may not be yet quite prepared to take only

its management entirely to the unmolested energy of
the Heads of Departmenta. But there is no war

It is a people's question this of the re-conquest and
re-organisation of India ;it is too grave and toe

Sir Butyl"' Lrrros is the only one who appears to

tone at ones wile and manly, genial and statesman-
like, in all that fell from him regarding the duty of
Government to devise some practical means for the
discipline, and organisation of that Volunteer ardour
which now animates the higher and middle clams
of Engliahmen. We agree with him in his hopes
that this occasion will not be lost "of showing
" Europe how England, when necessary, can start at
" once into a military nation without the tyranny of
o oonecriptiono, and without the ruinous aztnivs-
. ranee of large standing armies." With /grind to
the origin and progress of the mutiny, Sir EDWAID
wisely, and with good taste, abstained from recrimi-
natory charges ; but there is One peonage in his
speech, the truth and point of which no one can
deny : " The man who tells as that a Revolt, which
"it mast have takes months, if not years, to or-

" energy prevented, simply asks us to believe that
" Policy is an accident and Government a farce."

The performances of Mr.Disa•zu, Mr. OSBORNE,
Sir Cemaxr.B NAPIER were in a much lower
key. The dashing Secretary to the Admiralty
blazed away with his usual reckless fluency in •
helter-skelter defence of all that Government had
done from the commencement of the Indian
troubles, and dextrously enough availed himself of
the horror which the crimes of the mutineer have
necessarily engendered in the breasts of Englialunea, to
divert attention from the shortcomings of thong=
