Nothing could well have been more characteristic

than Mr. BERNAL OSBORNE'S facetious re-appear.;
ante last evening as a debater in the present Par-
liament.% It is unnecessary then to add that
nothing in its way could very well have been
more delightful. The hon. and gallant gentleman'
has long held his place as one of the pleasanteSt
joke-masters. in the Legislature. Unlike the more;
deadly wit of the right hon. the leader of the,
Opposition, the wit of Mr. BERNAL OSBORNE cor-,
ruseates as harmlessly as sheet lightning. One
can't very well perceive much the use of it—sailing!
-that it serves perhaps to clear the political;
atmosphere of ill-feeling, and to promote
general good humour on both sides of.
the House by provoking laughter that semehow
or other; while' he is speaking, proves invariably'
'contagious,
,Let Mr. BERNAL OSBORNE be but
once fairly on his logs and warmed to ;any subject
in 'the wide universe of things—it don't matter in
theJeast what--lat him but have one arm tucked
under his coat tails after the approved oratorical
fushion of the celebrated Mr. PICKWICK, while the
.other is waving hilariously like that'of an exceed-
,
ingly loose-jointed semaphore worked by some!
energetic novice in the old-fashioned art of tele-
grophin‘g, and we
,would confidently.- Wager that
the most smileless man in the house Would find
some difficulty, as the phrase is, in keeping his
countenance. The only really vexatious peculiarity •
about the hon. gentleman as a debater, or (which
is pretty much the same thing in his instance) as a
Parliamentary droll is this, that whenever he has
obtained what by his talents he eminently well
merits a place of any sort in the administration, he
bears at once a curious .resemblance—we won't
say by any means to a Jack in office, but to that
faVourite toy of children known as a;Jack-in-the-
box. 'When he is fairly got into it he is shut up !
Rave we no recollection-any- of us of the immediate
result of the breaking up of Lord PALMERSTON'S
last Government P The lid off—Jack was up in an
instant. The apparition had all the effect of a re-
freahing cerise, and Mr. DISRAELI congratulated '
the hon, gen' tleman upon having not only found his
voice again, but upon having celebrated the finding
of it by the reverbera°ls of that " wild shriek of
liberty." Fortunatelyel
or the frequenters of the
.fonse of Commons and for the labsrious readers
of the debates, Mr. BERNAL OSBORNE is noir like
one of those Scotch wags he •
le so fond of
quoting—" Bock again." And still more fortu-
nately for them both, he is no lon.er secret
at the Admiralty. There is a fear, it is
true, in
some qua..rters that he may perehatee be selected in
a-day.or two by the noble Viscount the First Lord
of the Treasury as the Chief cetumissioner of' the
People's Parks and of the 1-loyid Palaces; in the
place left vacant by: the untimely and. lamented
demise of the Right Hon. HENRY FITZROY. BUt '
fIlLn at lea4t .should probably have the consola-1

COn th4.in ksiiig the wast amusing talker in the
Colmoes, such, we should, in all likelihood,

gain in. i;ost • womithliilly requiring it
an efficient and sagacious administrator.
