THE LATEGOvEAINT KN ::;1.7X4.z
A FRENCIDIA.N,S OPI
The result of the late deflate in theN:Hota
Lords seems to have highly inte:ested people hers'..
Many anticipated the defeat of Lord Pahnerston,
who, with all his popularity, could not, they
thought, resist the combined assault of Tories, Ra-
dicals, and " economists." Others, and these were
few, were convinced that he would weatiller this
storui; as he has already weathered so many others.
But neither the many nor the few could conceal te7leir
admiration at iL9 masterly manner in which he
ti e-
feated his opponents. Among the latter is the .
writer of the chronique in the ,hievue des Deux
Mondes, who, after relating what iook place that
evening, when Lord Palmerston prev cos d Ns own
amendment, " which involved the existence the
Cabinet," goes on to say ..

at least by marvels of eloquence, wit, and hi.mour, the great
political rent. His very adversaries, and they are not few
or very tender, are forced to pay him this homage ; they
oven say that the mere perusal of his speech cannot give ay
just notion of the vigour of his discourse, and that to appre- •
ciate it as it ought it should have been heard. No ors`c
equal to Mr. Disraeli in struggling with a stout hek'rt
against ill fortune. It is in desperate situations that ha'
most surpasses himself. Like these Generals who never
have more clearness and przlsenee of mind than in the
heat of battle, it is in moments of confusion and di
pointment, when others are completely discouraged, that
the resources of his talents are most d_isplayed. Ho must
have been that night in the vein which ho has described in
one of his novels, which, in fact, describes I,:inaself, when
.
lyrism and irony are uppermost:in him. when tho

tion, of wild linghter gets iuW his ,

an opening very firm, verfgrions, and a little philosophic •
when he explained with elevated reasons the true causes of
the greatness of England, his gaiety 'commenced. Ho
played with the long drawn out figures of the budget like a
juggler, he tore to pieces in the most amusing mt.:3ner, while
throwing right and left every sort of caricature, the motion
of Mr. Stansfeld, the amendments of the other rainbow,
and that of Lord Palmerston. His last sketches, the most,
comical of all, were reserved for 11.-!.s lieutenant, his candid
friend, Mr. Walpole. Calling to mint:l all of a sudden that
the following was the Derby day, ho wished that his auditors
should not experience the same disappointi,-.lent which ho
himself felt, and that their favourites should nOt bolt. In
any other country such a scene, crowned with so' gallant
an harangue, would be equivalent to the breaking %I of a
party. We hope it will net be thus in England. On tha
eve of the Derby, when the favourite horses disappo3ntecT
so many people, the amusing ill-humour of Mr. Disraeli
against Mr. Walpole could be treated with indulgence. Al la'
all, the'gaiety of Mr. Disraeli was more amusing than venom
ous. It exhibits one of' the features of the strong and origi-
nal individuality with all the charm of talent, as well as a
great self-command and an invincible energy of resolution.
Lord Palmerston and Bin Disraeli en the two Most curious
'figures in the English Parliament. This Tory party will not
abandon the leader to whom it owes its re-organisation and
its progress. As a matter of course the real question atissue
disappeared in this strange skirmish. The English have a
horror of discussing in their Chambers what they
ab-
stract
' amm:slment,
street -questions. The motion of Mr. Stansfeld, no longer
supported by the prospect of Mr. Walpoles
had the unpardonable fault of being merely an abotract
question. Behold, then, Lord Palmerston in all the triumPlL
of a vote of confidence, which the Opposition did not die,-
pute with him, and, according to Mr. Bright, Dictator for'
some months. Nevertheless, the question of armaments
and economy is not for ever ii2terred. Lord Palmerston
must introduce some in the next 13Adget, otherwise he will
have to account with determined Overgaries• Meas

M. Xavier Raymond, himself a master on the question of

French public. The coalition, for which the Tories were
not prepared a few evenings since, is always possible for
the future. Mr. Bright and Mr. Cobden have majci
significant advances in this sense. In the curious atting
