being a great general, and thereby imbibe a love .of war,
which should break out in violence to the rest of Europe
(which he trusted in God's goodness would not be the
case), then these prospects of Italy would conduce greatly
to _the future prospects of mankind. The great duty
of the British Cabinet would- now be to prevail upon
one Side.to be content with the great honour of being the
releaser of Italy from oppressive rule-- to prevail
upon Austria to • recognise not only the obligation
but the duty also, of abstaining from similar acts of violence
and opresssion. It would have to say firmly to the French,
you shall come no further ; to speak similarly to the people
of Italy and the surrounding governments, and to contribute
all that it was possible to be done—all that it was possible
for the Cabinet—with a view to the real interests and the
real liberty of Italy. Sir Richard then expressed his con-
viction that the government would soon introduce and carry
great measures of social reform, and concluded, after refer-'
ring at some length to the reform in the law which he him-
self desired to obtain.
THE SOLICITOR-GENERAL, AT READING.
Sir 11. S. Beating, the new Solicitor-General, was
,re-
turned for Reading without opposition, and in his speech on
the occasion, after thanking the electors for the honour they
had for the fifth time conferred upon him, he alluded to the
course adopted by the Liberal party in ejecting Lord Derby's
Government from office. They took a patriotic and legiti-
mate court- nr' when they considered the

“e position in
which the country was placed, the state of things abroad as
well as at home, it would scarcely have been worthy of the
great Liberal party to have adopted any other course than
that of proposing, in a manly, straight-forward way, the
vote of want of confidence. (Applause.) The Liberals, in
order to free themselves from that reproach which was
justly made against them - a want of union—have joined
together, and the result has been the formation of a
government which did appear to embraee,4ll sections of the
Liberal party. He hoped-They would work well for the

affairs

was extremely critical, but still he hoped government would
steer the country safely through them. With every desire
to give Lord Derby credit for having endeavoured to main-
tain peace abroad, yet he had been unable to do so, attribut-
able perhaps, in some measure, to the fact of his party being
in a minority, and thus not able to exercise that proper
influence which her Majesty's government should 'possess.
The hon. gentleman then proceeded to state that the
present government would be extremely anxious to carry
out measures of law reform, and then went on to refer to
the subject of Parliamentary RefOrm. That the country
would have a measure of Parliamentary Reform was beyond
a doubt, and a government which, came into office pledged
to Parliamentary Reform, must at once and immediately
set about the work. (Hear, hear.) Bat then it must be
remembered that government took office at a very late
period of the session. There were many things required
and must be done, and he felt persuaded that at the earliest
practical moment that question would receive the attention
of the Ministry. Whether the measure propounded would
meet the views of all was doubtful ; be thought he might
say it would not ; but still when they did propose a measure
of reform, it would be a real and not a sham one. It
would not be giving, with o- +.l4ing. away with

Ait would be that which it purported to be,
namely, a real Reform Bill. Of course, in the position
he occupied, he could not tell what that Reform Bill would
be, but he was sure it would be such a one as the country
called for. iplause.)
