SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.
/ROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.
GLOBE.—We have all along expressed our thorough
conviction of the fact that there is a schism in the Con-
servative camp, and we have invariably been met by
protestations from the Tory press that the party is in a
state of the most blissful unity. At length, however,
the ill-suppressed bickerings between the organs that
wish to be, the organs that are to be, and the organs
that profess to be, have broken forth into open disagree-
ment, the immediate cause of which is the bold avowal of
the Times that it condemns the present Corn-laws,
and forbears from writing them down chiefly be-
cause it believes that to put them down will be one
of the first acts of the Conservative Government.
Against this doctrine the Post of this morning has pro-
tested in terms unsually strong : in one portion of its
article it actually goes so far as to threaten to respond
to the thunder of Printing-house-square with the light-
ning of its own ridicule I We are, however, spared the
infliction of our Contemporary's liveliness by the neces-
sity which, he feels, compels him to be " severe ;" and
he consequently proceeds to belabour the Times with
the cudgels of rebuke, instead of drawing the small
sword of wit for the more skilful purpose of pink-
ing him. In sober eartnestness, there is at the very
threshold of power a most serious division in the
Conservative ranks. It is flow no longer a question
of importance to know what Sir Robert Peel in-
tends.; but the inquiry must be changed into " How
much of his intentions will his party permit him to
execute ?" The answer is clear, that he will be able to
do nothing. Neither section of politicians will be in-
duced, with regard to the Corn-laws, to give way; for
while anti-monopoly is immoveable from its firm position
on the rock of principle, monopoly is stuck irretrievably
in the slough of self-interest. If Sir Robert Peel propi-
tiates the advocates of the former by concessions on the
Corn-laws, he cannot count on their support for his ge-
neral policy ; while, if he endeavours to satisfy the de-
mandants of continued restriction, he will only fall into
that " mire" which the Post has already spoken of, when
alluding to the new Parliament.
STANDARD.—We have again to offer that most
ungracious and unpalateable of all admonitions, to a very
numerous body of correspondents—we must inculcate
the policy of patience. No day passes in which we do
not receive many letters, generally commencing with
"Now that the country is sure of a Conservative Govern-
ment," or some equivalent phrase, and ending with a
proposition, generally excellent in itself, and mom•
mended by good arguments; but, as we must respectfully
submit, premature, as all propositions of measures
to be carried by a Conservative Government must be at
present. In the first place, the country is not sure of a
Conservative Government as a matter of course. We
have seen the country governed for years by a
ministry without an effectual majority in the House of
Commons, and without any majority in the House of
Lords ; and how unconstitutional soever such a course
may be, after-the vote of the 4th June, there is no assu-
rance that the attempt may not be persevered in. By
straining the privilege of Parliament no doubt the Minis-
ters may ba forcibly ejected ; but it must always
be a grave question with Conservatives, if they are
what they profess to be, whether ultimately more
mischief will not be done by forcing the in-
clinations of the Sovereign than can be caused by a
temporary submission to them. There can be, and
there is no doubt that our beloved Queen wishes '
to govern in the spirit of the Constitution—the most am-
ple reliance may be placed upon her Majesty's good
r
good dispositions • and in dealing with a Sove-
e
thouign so intellient and so disposed, it may well be
ght advisable to resign to time and to her own good
sense the . office of instructing her. Let the present
men, as they have

tr fail
lthe whole length of their tether. The

e
passed by—we say eir:Fins unhappily
ought to be very unhappily,powerftbecausewe the
and all power is the object
of a just jealousy—the time for aP jealousy of jibe
Sovereign's power has unhappily passed by, and there-
fore, Parliament makes no real sacrifice in
submitting to
a temporary oblivion of constitutional principles, where
the prerogative is concerned ; such a submission, is in
the times in which we live an error on the rightt side.
Above all, Conservatives ought not to be extreme in
controlling the wishes of the 'Sovereign. If, therefore,
Ministers shall muster courage to retain office in de-
fiance of future defeats and condemnations, as they have
retained office in defiance of former defeats and condem-
nations, and if they should prevail upon her Afajesty,
as they have before prevailed upon her, to
sup-
port them in their unconstitutional course, we can easily
imagine the Conservative majority still abstaining from
a refusal of the supplies, or any other peremptory
pro-
cess of ejectment—maintaining still the even tenour of
their way--defeating ill measures, and introducing good
measures as far as it is open to an opposition to do so—.
and exercising a vigilant, though not vexatious censor-
ship upon the Ministerial acts of the executive. It is
by such conduct they have reached their present noble
position, and by a perseverance in such conduct they
will still more highly exalt it.
