THE S sti N
LONDON, FRIDAY, JULY 6, 1860.

So we were right after all—the Tories are we

enough advised to accept, and cordially to accept,
Resolutions, which are mere records of undeniable
facts. We were right even, Mr. OSBORNE and Mr.

DISRAELI being judges, in criticising the very
grammar of the third resolution, and deducing the
conclusion that breaches of grammar indicated the
more serious probability of breaches in the Cabinet.
And so we find it in the debate. No two speeches
can be in more substantial opposition than those of
Lord PALMERSTON and Mr. GLADSTONE. The
Premier is all for quiet resolutions, and leaving
things as they are ; his Chancellor of the Exchequer
regards them as respectable trueisms, and avows
himself in favour of ACTION ! Lord PALMERSTON
elicits almost unqualified praise from the leader
of the Opposition. Mr. GLADSTONE drives Mr.
WHITESIDE into such an angry retort, that the
Irish orator actually resorts to the American Senate

—an elected Senate—to justify:the aggresion of our
hereditary House of Lords ! Even Mr. WHITESIDE

hazards the suggestion of Americanizing our insti-

tutions, by adverting to what a Senate can do,
which can justify its interference with money bills

by the fact, that its members, like those of the
Lower House, represent those who are taxed.
When the Lords will submit to popular election,
we may well offer to revise our practice in regard
to money Bills. Till then we may safely assert,
that those who maintain that it is consistent with
constitutional usage for the Lords to retain a tax of
a million and a half, which the Commons have
abolished, maintain quite as revolutionary a doc-
trine as that of requiring every member of the
House of Lords to appear on the hustings.
We do not know that of all the clever speeches
which Lord PALMERSTON has made that he ever
made a cleverer one than that of last night. The
only thing it wanted was—pluck. He was the
Lord more than the Commoner. To take an illus-
tration from the dining table of the jovial lord,
titular handle to his name overbalanced the repre-
sentative blade, and prevented the latter doing
damage to appearances. The Representative, said,
precedents sustained only apparently the conduct
of the Lords ; that they had never interfered in
au important part of the House of Commons' scheme
for taxation ; or, in any case, in which there were
not more than merey financial considerations.
And, that the House ought to resist allowing the
14..0rds "to enter into partnership" with them in
IBlaeirfinancial measures—so far the Representative.
wit en the noble lord came in, and overbalanced all
th il
assertions that the noble lords could have no
such intention.
mean to set up He had no proof that they did not
as financiers, although without even
estimates to work on. Indeed (only he must not
notice the debates in another place), they had de
fended their rejection of the bill by financial rea-
sons. still, " Charity believeth all things, hopeth
all things, endureth all things," and so forth; and
Lord PALMERSTON believed
wonoluyld come of
good of
the Lords, hoped no harm
their mistakes, and would endure
thing rather than hav© a any:
quarrel with
the Upper House. He would not commence
the quarrel. We suppose he meant on the
moralist's principle that there must always be two
parties to a quarrel ; that he, therefore, who re-
turns the blow commences the quarrel. Certainly
no one denies that the Lords have given the Com-
mons of 1860 a very handsome blow on the finan-
cial cheek, so reord PALMERSToN, like an exem-
