LONDON, SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1866.

The aspect of affairs on the Continent cannot fail
o engage the anxious attention of Englishmen, and
it is not surprising that the foreign policy of the
Government should have become a prominent topic
of debate in both Houses last evening. In both
the members of the new Administration professed
their determination to abide by their original decla-
rations, and to keep 'as far as possible absolutely
aloof from the Germanic struggle and all its com-
plications consequent upon it, and this announce-
ment was evidently received with satisfaction by
Lords and Commons alike. However vividly the
interests of England may be excited by the struggle,
it is no longer one in which she can take sides.
Had she intervened in the earlier days of the Schles-
wig-Holstein difficulty her course would have been
clear to uphold Denmark and resist the aggression
of Prussia. Had she done this the storm now burst-
ing over Europe might have been dispersed, but
affairs are no longer in the same position. It is a
German quarrel, and the Germans must fight it out
among themselves, and the English Minister who
should propose to take up arms on behalf of either
Austria or Prussia would assuredly forfeit, as he
would deserve to do, the confidence of Parliament
and of the country. As Lord DERBY said last night,
it is not possible for a country like England to pro-
fess the principle of non-intervention and non-inter-
ference in the affairs of the world, but the Prime
Minister added that he believed he expressed the
opinions of all men on both sides of the House when
he said that nothing could be more inconsistent
with the public duty of the Government than to
take an active part at the present time in the affairs
of Europe. This language is certainly clear enough,
and if it wanted any further 'confirmation it would
be found in Lord STANLEY'S speech last evening,
which left room for no misunderstanding on the
point. Mr. LAING, in the speech which inaugurated
the discussion in the Lower House, asked for some
guarantee that no intervention on the part of this
