The perfect execution by these Lilliputian Artistes of some
of the most difficult and brilliant Solos, Duets, and Trios ever
written for the violin, has excited mingled wonder and admi-
ration in Continental Musical Circles, and drawn forth enthu-
siastic tributes of praise from the Public Journals of France
and Belgium.

The treatment of Mr. BRIGHT is certainly about
the most flagrant among the many flagrant tnei-
don* marking the formattbn of the new Coalition
OtePvernment. Why Mr. 00BDTN
should be nominated for the Presidency of the
Board of Trade, and Mr. MrLNER GrßsoN for the
PO, Law Board, and Mu. BRIGHT passed over
altogether, passes any rational observer's compre-
hension. It cannot possibly be on account of his
championship of the Ballot, for instance—because
both hts views upon that political question, as upon
almost every other that could be mentioned, are
identioal with those entertained by the member for
Rochdale and the member for Ashton-under-Lyne.
It cannot either be, by any possibility, because Mr.
BRIGHT is an apostle of the preposterous peace-at-
any-price principle. For how in this matter was
it with Mr. COBDEN, upon the most memorable of
all the eicasions when peace-at-any-price principle's
were declared for in the lower House of .Parlia-
meat ? Why, for that matter, don't we all recol-
lect as as• possible that Mr. COBDEN has
distinctly suffered the penalty of a two yeArs
absence from the House of Commons by reason of
that very.vote of his upon the war with China.--
with an awkward squad" of sympathisers,
he marched upon his unconscious road to Coventry
into that lobby over against the one into which
passed the leader of the present new COalition
Government. Because of that vote Mr2eOEDEN
was summarily rejected by his old constituency ati
Huddersfield. Yet—a couple of years pass by, and.
lo ! the conscientious antagonist of the Chinesevar,
the reprobator of the Palmerstonian system,A,
meek, leek-eating, peace-at- any-price victim. of
Huddersfield, is selected by Lord PaLmERsToN. to
sit down cheek-by :owl with him in the same
J
Calaiteti dulethat, moreover, at the very period
When a great war is raging in Northern Italy—a
war that may possibly, in its development, drag
England by-neeessity, against her own preference
for neutrality, into a participation in the struggle.
Remembering Mr. COBDRYS opinions upon War
and Peace, remembering his- vote upon the Chinese
*sitati, remembering the very reason for his late
ttw 'Yoirars' banishment from the popular branch of
the t*isiature, it does certainly'aPpear to be no
more plausible because of }fr"-. BRIGH;f4 rpeace,
ai;ariy-price views,- than because of his well-known
advOcacy of the Ballot, that he has tieen passed
over -tit the very moment when his colleagues of
Rochdale and Ashton-under-Lyne are being enrolled
upon' the Administration.
ICertilinly, looking at the strange companions
btought together upon the great Bed of Ware of
this Coalition Cabinet of sixteen—one_seems to be
realising some at least of the characteristics of the
Political Millennium. Here is the lamb of
dale lying down beside the lion of Tiverton.
