Music hall, tile New Fine Arts Gallery, and the recently

as regards the architectural beauty of the structures them-
selves, or the varied and hitherto unattemted combinations
within, will be found to be wholly without parallel in the
Kingdom.

MONDAY. MARCH 28, 1859.

Lord PALMERSTON is perfectly up to his work.
He thoroughly understands what he is about, and
while volunteering not only his advice, but his
imperative instructions to Ministers, he adopts the
most skilful mode of capturing stray and wavering
votes. If we are to credit the noble viscount, the
adoption of the resolution will not lead to the
resignation of the Government. Nay, more, they
must not resign; the House will not allow them
to do so. Still less must they think of an appeal
to the country. That could not for a moment be
tolerated. The chosen representatives of the people
must throw everything into confusion—must reject
the Appropriation Act, the Ways and Means Act,
the Mutiny Act, and refuse to make provision for
the Exchequer bonds falling due in May—rather
than allow the opinions of the various constituencies
to be ascertained, and the real sentiments of
the people to be discovered respecting the course
adopted
,by the extraordinary coalition framed to
substitute a new party for the present occupants of
the Treasury benches.
Lord PALMERSTON has long been recognised as a
proficient in the art of badinage. He well merited
the title of " First Lord of the Jokery," but never
did he enter on a more refined piece of irony than
when he was patronising the Cabinet, and
telling them that they must act in accord-
ance with his suggestions, and "be con-
demned to retain their places," under cir-
cumstances which would be intolerable either to
himself or Lord JOHN RUSSELL, notwithstanding
their well-known anxiety for place, power, and

patronage.
But what does he offer in lieu of the present
bill what inducement does he propose to the
independent Liberals to replace him in the Down-
ing-street Eden ? Would he adopt Mr. LOCKE
KING'S motion, or give a £lO franchise for coun-
ties ? Far from:it! He " should have supposed
that portion of the Government arrangements
had been suggested by the honourable member for
Birmingham." Adding, "if we are to determine
who are to embark in the same boat, I should say
that the honourable gentleman is rowing with the
Chancellor of the Exchequer and the noble lord
the Secretary for India, much more than with my
noble friend the member for the City London."
If this be so, surely Mr. BRIGHT and his friends
and disciples ought to ignore the resolution, and
endeavour to carry the measure into com-
mittee, where it could be duly amended,
and moulded into any shape that the
majority of the House deemed expedient. They
must know that both the noble lords are pledged
and that no other

bmeinithsetry alpchoauld andtoemndepeia. of reform;
ns
extensive
t eivc concessions,
or hope to carry
a measure of equal magnitude,
with that now in office;
and yet, without expecting
to come into power themselves, they are to join in
a factious vote, that must postpone the question for
another year, and probably adjourn i t sine die, because
it does not go to the full extent of their wishes,
and some of the details—which may be altered in
committee—do not entirely meet their approval.
This point has been over and over again explained
clearly, distinctly, and unequivocally. But as the
deaf adder would net hear "the voice of the char-
mer, charm he ever so wisely," so right honourable
and honourable gentlemen are determined to do
anything, however unreasonable, provided it gives
thQula chtMcc of once more getting to the sunny
