(Prom the Times of this day.)

In the course of the extraordinary disclosures made
by Lord John Russell on Friday evening he entered
into some additional details on the proposals and con-
duct of the Austrian Government ; and he boasted that,
at any rate, be had made it his business to ascertain
what Austria and Prussia were ready to agree to. He
appears to us to have succeeded in that portion of his
mission as ill as in every other part of it, but his speech
on Friday does unquestionably furnish a more plausible
apology for the conduct of Austria herself, since she may
fairly say that the proposal she had made was sufficient
to redeem her previous engagements, inasmuch as both
the French and the English Plenipotentiaries expressed
their approval of it, not as diplomatic agents only, but
as members of their respective Cabinets. This argument
ad homines does not, however, touch the real question,
for, as it now turns out, France and England were re-
presented at Vienna by men who differed on the most
essential point from the policy of those who sent them,
and who practically betrayed the objects of their mission.
The Austrian Government itself appears to be of opi-
nion that its recent measures for the reduction of the
Imperial army and its present relaeions to the other
Powers of Europe stand in need of some explanation,
and accordingly an article has been published by an
official journal at Vienna, which is attributed to the pen
cf a statesman of high reputation, and has since been
transferred to the columns of the French Monitcur. The
first object of this communication is to explain the nature
of the reduction which has just been effected in the
Austrian army. The ordinary period of service for the
men drawn to serve in that country is eight years, but
they remain liable to serve for two additional years in
what are termed the reserves of the army. These re-
serves, consequently, form about one-fifth of the whole
army, but they consist of men in the strength of man-
hood and of veteran troops. The Emperor has discharged
the reserves of the 3d and 4th corps d'armee, amourting
to about GO,OOO men, and one of the grounds assigned
for this measure is the necessity of sending home this
body of men, chiefly belonging to the peasantry of the
empire, before the harvest. To this excuse the Austrian
writer might with perfect truth have added that, in spite
of the efforts which have been made and the expense in-
curred to put the Imperial army on a respectable foot-
ing, the result has been very unsatisfactory, and that the
losses sustained by the Imperial forces from disease and
want of food within the co:;fines of their own territories
during the past year have been so frightfully large as to
equal the ravages of a campaign. The recent visit of
military inspection made by the Emperor Francis Joseph I

has disclosed to him a state of things which may in some
degree account for the extreme reluctance of the Aus-
trian Cabinet to encounter the forces of an enemy.
But, although the Austrian Government admit that
they have made what they term a halt in the course of
policy they had hitherto pursued, they are anxious to
persuade us that they have not made any retrograde
movement ; and, while they do not agree with
the Western Powers in their resolution to carry
the war to the limits which may be hereafter determined
by the success of our arms, they profess to abide by all
the conditions for which they have hitherto argued. We
regret to say that even this explanation of their conduct
and position will not support discussion, and that the
humble position they now claiin to occupy is as much
beneath their former professions as it is above their pre-
sent actions. The Emperor Napoleon told them the
other day in plain and forcible, language in his speech
from the throne that the meaning of the treaty of the 2d
of December was, that Austria would enter into offensive
and defensive engagements with the other belligerent
Powers, if the negotiations which were then about to
open did not arrive at a successful termination. Not
only is that engagement implied in every line of the
treaty, from the preamble down to that article which
exacted from Prussia her active co-operation, but the
same intention was expressed in repeated public declara-
tions of Count Buol. For instance, as long ago as Sep-
tember last the Cabinet of Vienna stated officially that
the restoration of peace upon terms which should secure
the future tranquillity of Europe was a necessity for
Austria, but Austria could not expect to obtain
that result by the sacrifices and exertions of other
Powers. Again, at the opening of the Conferences in
March, Count Buol emphatically assured the assembled
Plenipotentiaries of Europe that the Emperor of Austria
was resolved at all risks to abide by his engagements to
the belligerent Powers, and to persevere in the policy he
had adopted until it was brought to a successful issue.
No language could be stronger or more precise, and as
long as there is meaning in words these declarations will
remain on record, to prove that the Austrian Govern-
ment had at that time formed and expressed an inten-
tion to which it has not subsequently given effect. It
has been fully acknowledged by Austria that the
Vienna Conferences failed by no fault of ours, but
because Russia refused to submit to the application
of the third point in the four bases which she had pre-
viously professed to accept. In the very article of the
Vienna official journal to which we are now referring it
is admitted that the third point was not adjusted, and
that the fourth point, which the Austrian Government
now considers to be one of equal if not still greater diffi-
culty, was not entered upon at all. It is therefore clear
to demonstration that the objects contemplated by Aus-
tria have not been attained, and in making a halt at the
moment when her active co-operation became necessary
. she virtually receded from an engagement. We are
therefore entitled to say that Austria has done either too
much or too little, and that the position in which she now
stands is precisely that which it is least easy for her to
defend or to retain. If she was not firmly resolved to
persevere in a policy designed to reduce the power of
Russia by adverse and even hostile measures, she
not have signed repeated protocols and treaties to that
effect, and it was absurd to lavish a year's revenue on
military preparations without an object. If, on the con-
trary, she had formed a resolution to adhere to that
policy which would have been, as we firmly believe, the
cheapest, the most honourable, and the most useful to
her in the end, then she should have made the limita-
tion of the naval power of Russia her cases belli. Instead
of this she pursues a policy which is adverse to Russia
without being identified with that of the Western Powers,
and which neither intimidates one party nor conciliates
the other. The Austrian journalist argues that the ad-
vance of an Austrian army into Poland would not lave
altered the course of events in the Crimea ; that may be
questioned ; but Austria bad it in her power to act in
Bessarabia, and, after investing Ismail, to conclude the
campaign at Odessa.

L'ord7John Russell states positively that if the Western
Powers had assented to the last Austrian proposition,
and Russia bad refused it, the Austrian Minister in St.
Petersburg was to have retired in 48 hours, the mili-
tary convention with France was to be signed, and the
Austrian army was to be placed in such a position that
it could commence a war at any moment. Yet, even
then it seems an immediate declaration of war was not
stipulated for or agreed to by the Cabinet of Vienna.
Austria appears even in this case to have relied, as she
has done throughout, on the possibility of obtaining by
a demonstration what can only he secured in reality by
combined action. That is the weakness of her case,
and the reason why her policy, after promising so much,
has achieved so little. She bad in her hands a few
months ago, by reason of her geographical position,
her military strength, and her independent attitude,
the best cards which any of the great powers possessed,
for she might at no great sacrifice have claimed the
merit of restoring peace to Europe, and to a great ex-
tent of determining its conditions. But she has flung
away an opportunity which does not often recur in the
reign of a Sovereign. If the Western Powers triumph
in the present contest, Austria, and with her the whole
of Germany, has forfeited her claim to take part in the
negotiations or conditions of peace, while, if the efforts
of the Western Powers are unsuccessful, and Russia is
able to withstand their combined strength, it is certain
that Austria and Germany will be wholly incapable of
opposing any serious resistance to the influence of Rus-
sian policy or the force of Russian arms. If Lord JoLn
Russell had held at Vienna language worthy of a Bri-
tish Minister, or if he had even been able to express
himself .in the language of diplomacy with vigour and
precision, we still believe that these arguments might
have prevailed. His utter failure in the performance of
the duties he undertook, in order to retrieve, if pos-
sible, his damaged reputation, has proved not only dis-
creditable to himself and injurious to his country, but
mischievous to the general interests of Europe ; and,
after hearing his speech on Friday night,* no one can
wonder that Lord John Russell's appearance at Vienna
excited the astonishment and derision of all those who
were engaged in these important transactions.

(From the Morning Herald Of this day.)

- •
Eleven years ago we stated that "the want of high
and noble feelings amongst almost all classes of the
community is one of the worst symptoms of the fatal
disease which seems to be gradually extinguishing that
noble character which it was once the boast of England's
people to value above all earthly possessions."
At that time we were scoffed at, and called " wild
politicians ;" but we fancy that the course of events since
the year 1844 up to the present time has shown to many
within this land that the evil which we then foresaw,
and the toleration of which we denounced, has produced
most of the misfortunes which we anticipated, and that
if it be not checked, and that right suddenly and sharply,
worse will come of it.

We think, without going back to the details of the
melancholy and disgraceful chicaneries, treacheries, ex-
posures, and recriminations which have marked the last
ten years of our Parliamentary history, the present po-
sition of affairs may serve to show to what a condition
of things this utter want of high principle in public men
and of proper appreciation of its mtee,,sity among the
people at large, has brought what once was the highest-
minded nation upon which the sun shone.
The question now arises, is it impossible to redeem
the time ? A very short while since we should have
answered, with the Roman, "It is too late." At pre-
sent, however, some few symptoms are abroad that those
who have hitherto been careless and insensible to warn.
i:.gs are beginning to arouse themselves to a conscious-
ness of the fearful peril in which the country is involved.
The first of these favourable symptoms is the utter re-
probation into which are fallen the followers of the great
apostle of dishonour, he who first introduced into Eng-
lish public life the abominable doctrine that there were
two standards of morality. In other words that a man
might betray his friends, deny his principles, falsify
every word and deed of his former life, and yet remain
perfectly trustworthy, if it were only in his public capa-
city that he enacted a part which in private life would
have consigned him to well-merited infamy.
The English nation tacitly assented to this destruc-
tive abnegation of truth and honesty, and verily
they are now reaping their reward, for succeeding states-
men have not failed "to better the example" of Sir
Robert Peel.

Let us now see how matters absolutely stand at the
present moment with regard to the character of public
men, and, worse still, of the House of Commons itself,
which inevitably shares the want of reverence which
attends the eondnot of the majority of the members of
which it is composed.
As a beginning, we have only to mention the names of
Lord Aberdeen, Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Sidney Herbert,
and Sir James Graham, and ask, in what language can
an expression of the national opinion of these gentlemen
be couched which would not have been legally libellous
before Lord Campbell's aet permitted the justification of
libel ? We are a loss to answer the question.
The disclosures, however, of Friday night have
caused the delinquencies of these persons "to pale their
ineffectual fires" before the singular audacity of the an-
nouncements of Lord John Russell.
We premise that one of the worst features of the
gradual moral degradation of public men has been the
amazing increase of the practice of allowing of the ex-
istence of what, in Parliamentary slang, are called
" open questions" in the Cabinet. This system, already
too prevalent, was brought to its culminating point by
the experiment of the Coalition Cabinet. We need say
no more. The public are at length aware of what the
necessary effect must be of such a moral anomaly as that
agglomeration of discords.
The vote which brought the Coalition into existence
was stated by Mr. Cobden on Friday night to bare cost
the nation " 50,000 British lives and 100,000,0001.
sterling." We only hope the hon. member for the West
Riding did notfunderstate the case—for we believe we
are only now at the beginning of the losses and misfor-
tunes which have taken their rise from that miserable
transaction. Open questions in the Cabinet in former
days were considered to be allowable in affairs which in-
volved only slight differences of opinion, and in matters
of mere expediency. The Duke once said England conld
not have a " little war," how the veteran would have
stared had any one told him that the time would come
when a war with the greatest military power in the
world would be considered a "little " question, and this
not from the magnanimity and powers of England, but
from the feet that in the minds of her statesmen every-
thing, even to national and personal honour, had become
subordinate to the single consideration of keeping a place
and holding a faction together.
Of the truth of this England has bad lately two no-
table examples. The first, when the venerable Lord
Lansdowne, being supposed to act as adviser to her
Gracious Majesty, in loco parentis, took advantage (asie
is confidently asserted) of his position to recommendt
present Pramier not to join Lord Derby upon anY terms,
"for that if he did the Whigs could never again hope to
resume office I"
The second was on Friday night, when Lord John
Russell stated in effect that although perfectly convinced
just and ought to 4
that the Austrian propositions were

have been accepted, still, when defeated on that subject
in the Cabinet, he was content to carry on the war for
fear of breaking up the Whig Administration, by imi-
tating the resignation of M. Drouyn
One of the most fearful features of this startling an-
nouncement was the calmness and apparent matter of
ordinary occurrence and manner in which it was made.
The innocent girl of 10 years old, confessing that she
had punched out the eyes of her schoolfellow's doll could
not have made the disclosure with greater sang froid
than did Lord Joh❑ his announcement ; and this he did
in the very spot where, twelve months ago, he had en-
acted the part of the Cato of the Russian war, declaring
" delenda est Sebastopol," and calling upon " God to de-
fend the right," which it now appears he considers the
wrong. How is such a state of things to be explained ?
Is it possible that the moral perceptions of the &ass to
which he belongs—that of jobbing Whig statesmen—
are so utterly blinded by wandering in crooked and
dark ways that a man of his position in the country is
incapable of perceiving the heinous—nay, almost in-
credible wickedness of aiding in carrying on a war which
costs thousands of lives a day, and of the propriety, ne-
cessity, and justice of which be is not only doubtful but
incredulous ? But Lord John goes further, fur he ab-
solutely justifies his conduct.
Now, be it observed, the noble lord does not arrive
at this monstrous conclusion by means of the astute
dialectics and casuistry of Mr. Gladstone, who is ac-
customed "like the formal vice, Iniquity, to moralise—
two meanings in one word," and who has absolutely
reached a state of quasi honesty, from the incurable ob-
liquity of intellect by which he persuades himself that
chicanery is honour. No such thing ; Lord John pro.
fesses common sense ; and yet such is the moral condi-
tion to which the " total want of high principle in pub-
lic men" bas conducted him.

Let us look round for a moment upon the effects pro-
duced on the public mind by the contempt which the
people are beginning unequivocally not only to feel, but
to express, both for their rulers and the Legislature.
At this present moment the mob in Hyde Park unmis-
takeably dominates over both the distrusted Parliament
and the weak and unprincipled Administration ; it de-
clares its will on Sunday, and on Monday its behests are
obeyed.

Within the week meetings—large meetings—have
been held both at Sheffield and Birmingham, calling for
the impeachment of Ministers ; and at the latter town
when an orator demanded, " *here is the great inquest
of the nation ?" he was responded to from the bottom of
the ball by a shout of " Lmch law." •
At the same meeting the Primier was convicted, tin-
der his own hand, not only of conniving at the existence
of an Austrian police in this country, but of knowingly
allowing innocent men to be punished for denouncing its
agents. . . .

—We submit to our readers that such symptoms are
not to be despised, and that the only refuge from the
consequences which they portend is to be found in the
establishment of a Government composed of men on
whose firmness the people can repose confidence, on
whose truth they can rely, and whose integrity they can
respect. Let Mr. Roebuck insist on a call of the house.

'From the Morning Chronicle of this clay. )

Once more is the existence of an Administration com-
promised by the untimely candour of Lord John Russell.
The noble member for London has attained an unhappy
celebrity for saying the wrong things in the wrong
places ; and certainly will not have belied his reputa-
tion by the expose of Friday night. His speech on that
occasion was indeed most unfortunately timed, so far
as the credit, or perhaps the stability, of the Govern-
ment is concerned. If confessed a little earlier, and
with somewhat less manifest proof that the confession
was only made because the secret had been already de-
tected, the discordance of opinion between the late Pleni-
potentiary at Vienna and the rest of his colleagues might
not have assumed so very serions an aspect. There
would have been far less gravity in the fact, but for the
mystery in which it was so long environed.
Six weeks since the noble lord returned from Vienna,
bringing back with him no treaty of peace, but a bundle
of protocols to explain the reason why he had failed in
his attempts to conclude one. Yet neither in these pro-
tocols nor in the long speech which he felt obliged to
make on the subject in the house was the public informed
that be did bring home, if not a peace, at all events a
proposition that, in his opinion, formed the probable
basis of pacification, and which the Cabinet of whom he
formed a member had peremptorily rejected. He thought
then, and thinks still, that the last suggestion made by
Austria contained elements that might have been deve-
loped into a "satisfactory treaty of peace."
But the Premier and his remaining colleagues pro-
nounced against the opinion of our Colonial Secretary,
for reasons which Lord John allowed to appear, when
he added, that although the treaty would prove satisfac-
tory, it was likely to be " unpopular." But though hie
project of pacification was repudiated, the noble lord
not only retained the seals of office, but concealed the
fact that any differences of opinion existed between him-
self and his brother Ministers. To every hint of Cabinet
divisions the Government, by all its members and
through all its organs, returned a prompt denial, assum-
ing even the air of injured innocence when assuring the
house and the country that they were not less united
than energetic in prosecution of the war. If such secrets
ever could be kept, the, session, and' perhaps the war
itself, might have terminated before the nation dis-
covered that its destinies were guided by divided and
distracted councils.

Here we cannot help remarking upon the singular
Nemesis, which has attended every attempt at evasion
or misrepresentation on the part of the British Ministry.
Wrong with them has, indeed, never come right. In
order to excuse a culpable waste of time and langour in
their preparations, the Government constantly enlarged
upon the vast importance of enlisting the sympathies—
or, if possible, securing the co-operation—of the German
Powers. It was necessary to wait, we are told, until
the Austrian "pear had ripened." In order to give
some ostensible colour to this plea the late Vienna, Con-
ferences were inaugurated, since even Lord John himsef
assures us that he never hoped to educe any practical
result, in the shape of a treaty, from this pompous
and delusive gathering of diplomatists. When the
abortive close of the Conferences was undeniable, the
Ministry were obliged to keep up the delusion by exag-
gerating the promises originally made by Austria,
and accusing that country, by implication, if not in
actual terms, of treachery towards England and France.
This charge of bad faith elicited the vindicatory note of
Count Buol, who naturally dilated, as being the strongest
point in the Austrian defence, upon the fact that his own
Cabinet had actually contrived a proposition of which
the British plenipotentiary bad expressed his individual
satisfaction, promising to support it with all the weight
of his influence at home. Thus, step by step from the
original perversion of the truth, has followed the detec-
tion which now overwhelms the Government with dis-
grace.

- Nor can the public forget that the present is at least
the second instance in which confession and repentance,
on the part of the now Colonial Secretary, have followed,
not the commission of a fault, but its discovery ! His
sorrowful contrition or his virtuous resolves have been
manifested only to his colleagues beneath the seal of
• Cabinet secrecy, until detection became inevitable !
Then, and not before, Lord John Russell hastened
to display himself in his true colours to the world. Then
it was found, for the first time, that the noble lord was
' so much better and wiser a man than his fellow Minis-
ters—that he had seen and denounced the error of their
ways, blaming them for apathy, or remenstratingagainst
their acts, besides generally urging them to the course
which they did not follow, and, by not„following it, in-
volved the nation in terrible disrsters. Yet, while pur-
suing a career so fatal, and so contrary to his individual
judgment, the Administration never witnessed the actual
secession of their colleague, until their faults and
failures have been found out. It was thus in the last
autumn he retained his post, ostensibly an attached
and concurring partner of the Aberdeen Ministry,
until the country rang with indignation at the
I consequences of their mismanagement, and Mr.
Roebuck's motion brought discovery and respon-
sibility into immediate prospect. Lord John
then resigned ; and, moreover, took care to let us know
that he had detected the ministerial blunderings, as well
as sought to displace the ministerial blunderers, months
before. And now again he conceals the fact that be had
recommended a basis of pacification to his colleagues
which they had not thought proper to adopt, while he
did not think their rejection of it a cases resignationis.
If Count Buol had never written his too veracious circu-
lar, how soon would the country have learnt that the
Plenipotentiary had returned from Vienna with the out-
lines of a treaty in his pocket, which the Secretary of
State allowed to Le rejected
We regret to follow out an inference so little credit-
able to any public man. But we fear it its unquestionable,
that Lord John Russell has been too clever for his
colleagues. As the patrons of a sport nearly as honoUr-
able and only less exciting than the game of politics
would say, he " runs cunning." His political
" book " has been made up so adroitly as to leave him
a safe winner in every event. If Sebastopol had fallen
in November last, the Pi esident of the Council would
have shared the eclat of the triumph. As the fortress
held out in December, while the British army was suf-
fent]," the extremest r:gours of a winter campaign, he
retired to the back benches and claimed credit for having
long beforehand foreseen the existing calamities, and
done his best to avert them. Just now the discovery of
his plan seems to have been prematurely made through
the indiscretion of Count Buol and the vigilance of Mr.
Milner Gibson. But the scheme was not the less a
good scheme, although, like the Russian submarine tor-
pedos, it has blown up at an improper juncture. It
was evidently designed to lie perdu for a time,
leaving Lord John to play out the part of

It would be idle at this time of day to examine the
terms of the proposition to which Lord John Russell
ve his adherence. Whether actually unsafe, as Lord
ga
Palmerston declares, or merely "unpopular" for the
moment, according to the belief of the British Envoy,
the scheme has been finally repudiated. The propo:al is
negatived, and there's an end of it. The question now
pending is, not how the Palmerston Government name
to select such a Plenipotentiary, but how they can
re-
tain such a Colleague ? Here is a Comrade who does not
stick by the ship, but shows a recurring propensity
to
skulk into some boat towing astern, with a knife always
ready to " cut the painter" in case of disaster. The services
of such a comrade in working the vessel can be but slight,
while the . spectacle of his timidity and precautions
either upon friends or enemies can he litt!e satisfac-
tory. All the world knows the reason whylit has" been
found unsafe, to leave Lord John Russell out of any
Liberal Administration. But, as the proverb says,
"Gold may be bought too dear.'; Far as the seogion

bas advanced, it may not close before Lord Palmer'
has made the discovery that too high a price hasf
paid even for the high alliances and strong rein
