in Mr. BRIGHT himself, and in politicians like Mr.
BRIGHT, the true and heinous delinquents. But
for their preposterous clamour for peace at any
price ; but for their ridiculous reliance upon the
efficiency of arbitration ; but for their insensate
folly as the very falsest of all false economists, in
causing those periodical retrenchments which left
England at last with a mere shadow of an army,
with the ghost of a navy, with no channel fleet, no
gunboats, and scarcely any ordnance worth bringing
into the field in case of emergency—but for the
palsy they gradually brought upon all branches of
the public service, including even the diplomatic
department—we should never have drifted into
that disastrous, expensive, and sanguinary war with
Russia! We should have been enabled, at the out-
set, to have effectually awed back the aggressive
policy of the autocrat—MENSCIIIKOFF would never
have adventured upon that insolent mission to Con-
stantinople—the Turkish Fleet at Sinope would
never have been subjected to that diabolical razzia
and massacre ! And Mr. BRIGHT—as if he had
had nothing at all to do with it himself--would
never have uttered that rhetorical rhapsody about
the " Angel of Death being so near to us all that we
might hear the very beating of its wings !" Yet it
is notoriously because our warlike prestige has been
diminished by these peace-at-any-price ravings in
and out of Parliament that wars have broken out
latterly in Europe ! causing us—in order to meet
these abrupt emergencies—to create an army on the
spur of the moment, and to call a now navy suddenly
into existence--involving all this increased taxation,
and enormously enhancing the aggregate of our
annual expenditure! Bright ideas certainly—this
false economy—followed by the peace-at-any-price
ravings about the all-sufficiency of Arbitration.

difficulty in conforming to the counsels of the Great
Powers and keeping down these ebullitions. The
bubble has, however, now burst ; the conditions of
the peace which has been signed having opened the
eyes of the Nationalist party as to how far the
vague promises of France can be relied on, and to
wild clamours has succeeded calm disappointment.
