LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 12, 1865.

Now that the clamour and excitement of the elec-
tions of yesterday are over, it is worth while to
examine into the addresses delivered by some of the
more conspicuous members of the Ministerial party.
Two of these, the Colonial Secretary and the
Attorney-General, have already obtained their seats,
and have accordingly given an explanation of their
views to an admiring audience. As might have
been expected, whatever divergence there may be
in their sentiments, they both concur in extolling
the prosperity and happiness of the country, which
are, of course, exclusively due to the merits of its
Administration. Mr. CARDWELL, referring to the
wars and commotion of the past six years, re-
marked that "It has been our good fortune,
through all this period, to maintain and enjoy the
blessings of peace." We hare, he considers, as-
serted our own rights, respected the rights of others,
and have guided our conduct by the strictest prin-
ciples of non-intervention, of justice, and of inter-
national law. The justice has been after the
fashion of that charity which begins and ends at
home; the international law has been the subject of
constant dispute ; the strict principles of non-inter-
vention have led to the practice of very one-sided neu-
trality. Mr. CARDWELL takes credit to the last Par-
liament for the encouragement which it has given to
the Volunteer movement, but whatever praise is
due on that account must be divided equally be-
tween the two parties. When the right hon. gen-
tleman talks about peace having been preserved on
the one hand, and the dignity, honour, and inde-
pendence of the country having been maintained on
the other, the mob at the hustings may cheer, but
the fact is that with a war expenditure we have
forfeited the respect of foreign nations, we have
sacrificed our allies, have broken our pledges ; and
while we have imperilled the present peace of
Europe, we have sown the seeds of future wars
which no cowardice on our part may serve to avert.
Sir ROUNDELL PALMER, indeed, goes further than
his colleagues in his estimate of our recent foreign
policy. He declares that with regard to the re-
doubtable Danish question we could not have done
less, and we ought not to have done more; and he
considers that the country owes Lord RUSSELL, for
his adminitration of foreign affairs during the last
six years, " a debt of gratitude, hardly if at all less
than she owed him for his brilliant achievements in
the field of domestic reform." The gratitude due
for the noble lord's exertions in both direc-
tions during the last six years is, we
should imagine, nearly similar in degree.
In both cases he has professed largely and practised
little. He has assumed a bold and resolute air
while he has acted with timidity and vacillation.
He has refused to allow others to do what he could
not make up his mind to do himself. Sir ROUNDELL
PALMER claims credit for the " moral influence"
exerted on behalf of Denmark, being apparently
quite oblivious of that awkward epistle indited in
Germany by the " moral" friend of Denmark.
as our Ministers contend, they have endeavoured to
maintain the honour and influence of the country in
foreign councils, it does not say much for the results
of their labours that their threats, remonstrances,
and arguments should produce not the smallest
effect. A resolute front, shown at the first, an un-
hesitating avowal that England would never suffer
the dismemberment of Denmark, would have settled
the question. As it is it was no great wonder that
Lord PALMERSTON'S assurances that " Denmark
could not stand alone" and Lord RUSSELL'S threats

were equally ineffective in arresting the march of a
. _

single Prussian soldier. Doubtless the Cabinet
of Berlin was a good deal better in-

formed as to the state of affairs and the

sympathies of the English Ministry than the
misguided English public, and Herr von BIS3IARK

knew very well that the expose of Prussian ambition

in the Commons and the thunders of the despatches
were, if very far from being the words of imbeciles,
at least " full of sound and fury, and taignfying—
