We do not wish to be drawn into -a
troversy, which, in our opinion, would .
to the objects of a daily journal. We cal'.
fore, enter upon the abstract question of an'
tary Chamber in the way in which the Stana.'l7...
pears desirous to pursue it. It is not a floctre
Lords in the abstract to which we object, but' the
House of Lords, as actually operating, that we con-
sider to demand alteration. The Standard would hAve
us to separate the idea of Toryism from the consicrv.
ration of the subject altogether; but we bog to state
that it is the fact of the existing House of Lords being:
essentially a Tory House of Lords that makes it im-
possible to work well with a Liberal Government and
a reformed House of Commons. It would be abgu:cl
to waste time upon the discussion of a theoretical gm-S..
tion, when the case before us is really a practical ques-
tion. When Sir Robert Peelsays, " I can carry my-
measures through the House of Lords," what does he
mean? Surely not that his measures would be of an
anti-liberal character. No ; his object was tt; make
known the liberal character of his intended policy.
What is meant, therefore, is really this—viz., thai a
Tory House of Lords will acquiesce in liberal mea-
sures when introduced by one of their own party,
which they will not do when introduced by one of
their opponents. If Sir Robert Peel's measures were
to ua less liberal, less extensive, than Lord Mel-
bourne's, they would not satisfy the country ; if not,
why should t::e Lords accept the one and rej.?ct the
other, but because of the well-known fact, that men
are actuated by party and factious motives, and that
the House of Lords in particular, being irresponsible to
the public for their votes, will act, and have acted,
with direct reference to party politics ? We extracted
from the Standard of yesterday an excellent list of
necessary reforms which it was said Sir Robert Peel
would have passed. Would the Peers support Lord
Melbourne in the same ? It would be attributing
to our contemporary an ignorance of the world which
we will not imagine, to suppose that he is not per-
fectly awk:re of the real state of things with respect
to that House. The subject is entirely a practical
oi2e, and it is this :—Shall au Hereditary Chamber,
the mbjority of which arc declared Tories, be suffered
to impede the who legislative business of.the country,
in the hopes of w-.9a:ying it into an acquiescence in
a Tory Government as the sole condition of their sup-
port of anything like a reforming policy ? 'What
theoretical writers on Goverwrient may have to say on
constitutional polemics we Cos.a very little for. With
respect to Montesquieu lie was a very specious and
shallow writer, who never looked beyond the surface
of things, and was ready to genercalize upon the first
imperfect data that came in his way. Like many
others he lauded the Constitution of England of
which he knew nothing, and other people received his
obscure generalities for sterling demonstration. What
Locke's doctrines respecting government were, every
one must know. Salus populi suprenza let was the
clue which guided him, and will guide his disciples,
through the maze of speculative politics. The ;wit-
ings of that man show that he was deeply im-
pressed with the importance of the subject, and ap-
preciated the difficulties and dangers which might:
attend organic changes in the distribution of legis-
lative power ; but throughout the whole of his writ-
ings there breathes the spirit of liberty and popu-
lar benefit as the end of all government, and re-
volution or organic change as the proper conse-
quence of a perversion of legislative power from its
proper ends. Most justly does he observe, that
"great mistakes in the ruling part, many wrong and
inconvenient laws, and all the slips of human frailty,
will be borne by the people without mutiny or mur-
mur. But if a longltrein of abuses, prevarications,
and artifices, all tending ,`he same way, make the de-
sign visible to the people, an,:l they cannot but feel
what they lie under, and see wiz:ther they are going;
'tis not to be wondered, that they shok:ld then rouse them-
selves, and endeavour to put the rule into such hands,
which may secure to them the ends, for which Govern-
ment was at
.first erected ; and without which ancient
names and specious forms are so farfrom kingbetter,
that they are much worse than the state ,of liature or
pure anarchy; the inconveniences being all ctJ great
a.)zel as near, but the remedy further of and more
a'ff,cult." Now the question really is, whether the
° which actually possessed the legislative
polsivg:teri.CYohl this country before the Reform Bill, and
made both princes and people subservient to their in-
ordinate an increasing rule--the question is, whether
that Oligarchy is to be made to work with the House
of Commons, thr:atigh which, when unreformed and --
nominated by thud,. they managed to govern the
country ? Are we to go back ? Is the Reform Bill. to
be repealed ? The honest: Tories, those who wish to
be consequential in their arguments, will answer, Y.
The slippery and " conforming: Tories will say, No ;
we can legislate successfully for the country, because
we have the House of Lords with us. The meaning
of which is, we are prepared to throw-, if necessary, " a
tub to the whale ;" and by means of a mock-reforming
policy, we can reconcile an unreformed and anti-re-
forming House of Lords with a reformed aid liberal
House of Commons. Now the country wants a steady
and real reforming policy, carried on not by jesuitical
pretenders to Reform, but by honest and liberal Mi-
nisters ; and because the present unreformed and Tory
House of Lords has shown itself determined to thwart
and oppose those Ministers, reflecting people have be-
come convinced that before legislation can be con-
ciinted with advantage to the nation, that House must
Iv reformed ; and when a practical people, like the
take up a notion of this kind, we may depend
upon it, it will be carried sooner or later into effect.
Nor is this meditated reform any illegitimate object of
pursuit ; for, as Locke observes, " The end of govenz-
ment being the 4:pod ofthe community, whatsoever
alterations are moat: in it tending to that end, can-
not be an encroac!..tri.fmt upon anybody, since no
body in government cast have a right tending to any
other end. And those oidli are encroachments which
.
prejudice or hinder the p' hilie good." Wherefore
we humbly opine that the whole question is, whether
it. be expedient to declare that ,`he administration of
the affiurs of this country shall be taermancntly placed
in Tory hands—repealing the Reform. fill, and again
allowing the few to domineer over the ini:ny ; or whe-
ther a liberal and reforming Government shall be
strengthened, and the obstructions to a steady course
of national policy removed, by a liberal reform of the
House of Lords ? As.for the patchwork and " clap-
trap" policy by which Peel and other sham Reforivers
seek to gloss over vital defects and reconcile glariirg
discrepancies, and make two antagonist forces work hr.
unison together, it appears to us entirely absurd and
impeticablc. Sir Robert Peel acknowledges the fun-
daincitai change occasioned by the Reform Bill ; that
change necessul.
ates a corresponding change in the con-
stitution and characi,;r of the 'louse of Lords.--Morn-
ing Chronicle.

We insert in another column an article from the
Journal de Frankfort, in vindication of RusSian po- •
licy in the East. That paper, as some of our readers .
must be aware, is indebted for the extensive circulation
it has gained throughout Europe to the mere circum-
stance of its being published in French. On account
of its reputed circulation, it seems to, have been se-
lected by the Russian Cabinet as its occasional organ,
or, more properly speaking, as one of the instruments
through which its policy will be best served. The
article was evidently written in the Chancellerie of
the Russian. Minister Nessehode. It betrays the
stamp of Russian manufacture by the pains taken to
satisfy the world that the policy of the Russian Cabi-
net has always been, and can never cease to be, quite
unambitious and perfectly indifferent as- ,to territorial
aggrandisement. In proof thereof the Frankfort writer
points to the result of the successive wars between Rus-
sia and Turkey, which were closed by the treaties of
Kainardgi (1774), of Yassy (1792), and of Bucha-
rest (1812.) He cannot deny, indeed, that by those
treaties Russia has deprived the Porte of a vast extent-of
territory both in Europe and in Asia ; but he wants us
to take note that the utmost moderation was observed by
Russia in her career of conquest, inasmuch as she did
not add the whole of Turkey to her dominions ; and
therefore he bids us no longer withhold that' confidence -
which such striking and and
.repeated acts .of- abnegation
ought, to create. Now let us. ne,mnat.-.wer.ei.lhe ir4

were entered into, and whether they aff:Jrd any evidence
