LONDON, MONDAY, APRIL 27, 1857.

Reform is the watchword ! It is the Key to
the whole Mystery of the Future in regard to this
Flfth Parliament of our Gracious SOVEREIGN.
The New Hol:se of Commons is essentially a
Rouse of Reformers. The Prime Minister—as
we have insisted again and again—must, what-
ever else he may be, must necessarily, absolutelv,
imperatively, be—A. Reformer ! That, as we ob-
served in so many words on Saturday, his come
st last to be a positive Necessity. There is no
blinking the matter. It glares upon the public
recognition. It is a truth obvious and unde-
niable. The fact that it is so, is blazoned in cha-
racters so clear and legible that who3oever " runs
may read "—it is blazoned, that is to say, in the
long catalogue of the 654 representatives of the
city, borough, county, cinque port, and university
constituencies. So clearly and ao legibly that
everybody appreciates the fact already, the unde-
niable and incontostible truth, that the late Gene-
ral Election has given tho causo of Reform not
simply an enormous majority, but an overwhelm-
ing preponderance.

Whoever, Runs, we say, Ca!l React this wholly
indisputable truth, that the present Parliament,
more peculiarly than any other since the passing
of the Reform Bill, is essentially the Reform Par-
liament,.

Does any one yet require some supplonaentary
and conclusive testimony that it is, literally, as
we are here insisting—Ai we have been insisting
we don't know how long so pertinaciously 1 Any
one so insatiably thirsting for corroboration,
will find the last drop trimming over the Cup of
his Incredulity iii—the Times of this morning !
The Times of this morning, Monday, the 27th of
April, 1837, distinctly declares for Reform.
That, we take it, is conclusive testimony (suppos-
ing any to have been still wantinl.,,) that the time
for Reform has indeed at lenzth arrived. For—
unlike any trivial Straw thrown up to show how
the breez9 is blowing—the Times appears Only
capable of being acted upon by a force equivalent
to that of a hurricane ! It is the charac•
teristic of our great contanaporzey. Insomuch
that, without wishing to be merely complimentary,
we may say of it with literal truth what L)rd
BYRON said of the Banner of Free:loin in his
Childs Harold (retaining Lord BYI-toN's own italics
in our quotation), that actua:ly the Standard of
its Opinion—

"Streams like a thunder-aloud against tho wind!"

That is literally the "bearing" of the Times in
the avcrae current of eveLti—in fact, until the
force of that uaTent, as we have intimated, be-

comes tAnt mount, 'so to speak, to the force of a

Politics were, therefore, eschewed, bat there was

hurricane !

something of scarcely less importance, that might
safely be touched on. There were the indefatig-
able and efficient services rendered to the con-
stituency at large—the earnest attention and
energetic action in every cause where the
interests of the borough, or even of indivi-
dual electors, were concerned. The moment
the election was over and the return made, the
member was the representative as well of the
minority by whom he had been opposed, as of the
majority by whom he had been chosen. Sir A.
COCKBURN never forgot that wholesome rule.
Although engaged in legal practice, he sedu-
lously attended to commercial interests. Time,
peculiarly valuable to the eminent advocate,
was readily bestowed in every matter interesting
not only to those who had shown their just appre-
ciation of his high qualifications, but also to
others who had, through political differences, con-
scientiously opposed him. He remembered only
that he was their represent%tive, the legitimate
channel through which their wants and wishes
should be expressed. And therefore, the warm
and sincere gratitude of the commercial
men was bestowed on him, who had well deserved
it.

Wherefore we hail to-day with peculiar and
unaffected satisfaction the declaration' made in
favour of Reform by our distinguished contem-
porary. What we have so long demanded, the
Times now declares to be necessary—Reform bold,
instant, and comprehensive ! There can no longer,
therefore, be any mistake at all about it—even in
the minds of the least credulous, with these final
"Signs of the Times" before them challenging
observation—there can no longer be any mistake
at all about it, that the Pear is ripe at last Re-
form is virtually outs at this moment. Lot us
be sure this time that it be adequate for the occa-
sion. We don't want any longer what even the
very leader of the Conservative Opposition desig-
nated, in his address to his constituents, a series
of bit-by-bit improvements. We don't want any
longer any mere nibblings at evils requiring entire
removal, root and branch. Whoever our Prime
Minister is to be—we cannot tire of saying this,
now that we are upon the eve of the new par-
liamentary session he must be A Reformer.
And not simply A Reformer, but The
Reformer. The man who will bestow upon
his country the benefactions of the most
well-considered, the most comprehensive, and
the most urgently-required improvements !

1 This is a salutary lesson to other Members.
It teaches them what is required at their hands,
and also encourages them to proceed in the right
path, in the expectation that conduct like that
which was so justly eulogised, may meet a simi-
lar reward, which even the most exalted,
might refer to with pride to the last hour of his
existence. To other Members, who hope to retire
with honour from Parliament, we commend the
example of Sir ALEXANDER COCKBURN, and em-
phatically say, " Go thou and do likewise."
We trust, however, that the political career of
Sir ALEXANDER COCKBURN has not altogether
terminated. There is yet a mode by which his
bri:liant oratory, and sound common sense, a no
less important qualification, may be made avail-
able for other beside judicial services. He can-
not obtain a seat in the House of Commons, but
he may in the Peers. The hereditary branch
of the Legislature, the tribunal of ulti-
mate appeal requires such a man._ Of course
we do not presume to dictate to our SOTEREIGN
as to the mode in which she may be pleased
to exercise her undoubted prerogative. But
should she be pleased to call Sir ALEXA.NDER
COCKBURN to the Upper House, it would not only
be satisfactory to the entire community, but at-
tended with vast advantage to the national
interests. He has proved beyond the pos-
sibility of doubt that ho possesses that
grasp of intellect that enables him to take
enlarged views of the great questions of
legal reform, and the power of giving clear ex-
pression to his opinions, so that he who runs may
read. The only person who could suffer
by such an exercise of the prerogative is—him-
self. He would have new duties, the conscien-
tious performance whereof, and his past career
affords the best evidence that they would
be conscientiously performed, would involve
great additional labour. Lord. COCKBURN could
not be more honoured or distinguished than Sir A.
COCIEDURN. Would that we could see him carrying
out, or even aiding and assisting in carrying out
the admirable measures of legal reform on which
ho has so frequently spoken. He is not " the mere
lawyer" or the persuasive advocate, but something
more—not only a legal machine fitted to pronounce
judgments, but one peculiarly qualified to take
large and comprehensive views, and to achieve
tho arduous task of cleansing the Augean Stable.
To the knowledge of the truest technicalities of
the law, he adds the discriminating power, which
enables him to see where there is a fault, and the
creative one to suggest an adequate remedy.

And those improvements ! What are they to
be ? We mint have them enumerated explicitly
and categorically. The community is no longer
t• have its hunger satisfied by mero vague gene-
ralities. It require:, and it will have, at the
hands of its statesmen—not the old illusory Pro-
mises of Reform, not merely the Fore-sha.dovrings
of Prospective Improvement—but positive Mea-
sures, Practical, and Substantial.

And First of all these Reforms—let us put
the matter distinctly—there is the BALLOT That,
we say at once, as plainly as words can at a'l ex-
press it, is the First Requisite ! Any further
R--form, without " The Ballot," will be nothing
less than " a mockery, a delusion,. and a snare."
The Ballot, and The BATA alone, can really
secure to the industrial voters throughout the
country the power of inthpe.ndently exercising the
el-:ctive franchise entrusted to their hands by the
Constitution. Therefore, we repeat, DIE BALLOT
among all RefortnF, must necessarily be the First
and Foremost. Without "The 13,1t0t," all the
hopes of Liberalism are the merest delusion.
With " The Ballot" the pathway is smooth
and level before the new Reforming Par-
liament.. We believe that upon the re-
cognition, the candid and manly recognition
of this one essential Precursory Reform, the
Question of the Premiership may be at once de-
cided. Lot Lord PA.LMERSTON declare for it
let Lord JOHN RUSSELL declare for it—whichever
of the two might pronounce for The B slot first
would instantly have all the Advanced Liberals of
the lend at his back as his supporters. There
would follow in due sequence all the rest of the
great national requirements—an extension of the
suffrage an approximate equalisation of the
electoral districts—the disfranchisement of
sundry old, and the organisation of sundry
new constituencies. These and divers other
kindred innovations. But, first of all and as
an essential prelimigary to them—The Billet !
Reform, we have said, is the Watchword of the
New Parliament. " The Ballot " has hitherto
been the Shibboleth, let it now be the Rallying
Cry of our Reforming Statesmen.

It is always satisfactory to recognise the exist-
ence of a cordial and friendly understanding be-
tween a Member of Parliament and those by
whom ho has been chosen for that high position.
It is oven more gratifying to find, when that con-
nection has permanently terminated, the expres-
sions of mutual good will and affectionate regard
—to know that the parties have been pleased
with each other, and can refer with honest pride
to the manner in which they had discharged their
respective duties f Tile grand banquet at the
Audit-hall, Southampton, given by the Chamber
of Commerce to their 1 tte representative, Sir
ALEXANDER COCKBURN, was alike honourable t o
the distinguished guest and to hii hosts. It was
as SaLIESPERE said of " the quality of mercy,"
" twice blessed," reflecting almost equal credA on
all concerned. The learned Lerd Chief Justice
had ample cause for remembering with gratitude
the manner in which he had been treated by
those who enabled him to achieve a brilliant Par-
liamentary reputation, and who, from first to
last, rendered a disinterested support. Even his
opponents merited the graceful allusions made,
to their conduct, in his speech. There was never
any factious opposition got up for the mere sake
of annoyance. As he truly declared, when "offi-
cial advancement interrupted his tenure in Parlia-
ment, his political opponents"—he had no private
or personal enemies—" exercised a generous for-
bearance, and troubled him not with opposition."
When there were contests of principle, they
"fought manfully and fairly," while his friends
fully merited the name, too often abused, and by
their indefatigable exertions ensured the triumphs
he invariably achieved.

HEALTH OF THE DUCHESS OF GLOU-

CESTER.

The fullowingbulletin was issued this morning :
" G 1 )ucester House, April 27, 9 a.rn.

diminution of strength;
(Signed) "F. HAArxiNs, M.D.

It was not merely as representative, that the
Right Honourable Chief Justice was connected
with Southhampton. It was there when a young
and comparatively unknown man, that be had
fulfilled his first judicial duties. Sixteen years
since he had been appoint)d Recorder of South-
ampton, and in that station had displayed all the
high qualities required for the more exalted
position he now occupies. As the Chairman—
Mr. J. R. STEBBlNG—declared, his conduct as
Recorder was as free from taint as he believed
would be his career as one of the Chief Justices.
He had fairly and honourably won the confidence
subsequently bestowed on him, and it must have
been "the hour of his life" one worth living
for, when ho found all parties—those who were ouce
fuel, as well as friends, but now all friends with-
out exception—vieing with each other to render
him the !velour be had so 'eminently merited.
The banquet differed from many of those that
take place during the Parliamentary recess, or
immediately before the meeting of the Legislature.
Politics and party questions were expressly tabooed.
There is a salutary judicial etiquette that prohi-
bits the judges of the land from appearing at
public entertainments save at the Mansion-house
of the cityof London. But all will admit that in the
present instance the rule was " more honoured in
the breach than iu the observance." The questions
of the day, these that must inevitably be brought
under the netice of the Legislature were not di..-
ces‘-ed ! There was nothing to show that the
honoured and imparfal Judge had any bias as to
the creation of the 1 tws that be might subse-
quently be required t ) ictarprt t. Generally speak-
ing the birth of the Judge bet ,keued the death
of the politician ! From that moment he ceased
to be a legiA dor. His -no less arduous and his-

portant task was to int,g-pret and decide on the
enactments which ha.;.l obtained, or might yt,t
rr-
eeive the legislative sanction. The most enthu-
siastic legal reformer in such a position must en-
deavour to administer "the law 3 as they- are, not
as they ought to be," and from that duty we are
fully convinc?l that Sir ALELTONDER COCKI:1111N
will Dot swerve cr nevii,te in the't-lightekt degree.

(FURTHER PAITICULARS.)

PORTSMOUTH, SATURDAY.

Another noble steam thre,e-decker has been added
to the British fleet this day, with unsurpassed, if
not unequalled éclat so faras the successful launch-
ing and the interest mani!csted in that event can
indicate. No launch within the remembrance of
any shipwright or spectator present was ever more
dashingly exhibited than that of the Royal Sove-
reign. She is the most perfect model three-decker
afloat, and an improvement upon all others. She
was originally designed and framed as a sailing ship
of 110 guns, after the sample of the Queen, and
was commenced building in December, 1849, but
after the success of the experiment of cutting the
Windsor Castle, (similar ship) in two, and making
a steam 131-gun Duke of Wellington of her, and
the satisfactory repetition of the experiment with the
Marlborough, it was ordered that the Royal Sove-
reign should undergo the like process, and about
two years ago, when up in frame, she was length-
ened 23 feet amid-ships, 7 feet for the screw aper-
ture, and 5 feet on the bow, and thus we have the
splendid and powerful screw 131 gun battery of to-
day. She is the produCtion of the present Naval
Architect General, Capt. Sir B. Walker, Bart.,
K.C.8., and has been built under the immediate
direction and personal superintendence of Mr. R.
Abethel, the master shipwright of Portsmouth
Dockyard. We gave her dimensions ani armament
in The Sun of Saturday, but we repeat the former
for the purpose of showing the growth of our
first-class line-of-battle ships as compared with that
time-honoured hulk of the same class of the last
century (the Victory), and to found a few prelimi-
nary remarks upon the development of the
steam fleet generally. The first steam-vessel that
carried the Admiralty pennant, we believe, wai
the Comet, built by Mr. Lang, at Deptford, in
1822, but she was not built to carry guns, as may
by imagined by her circumscribed dimensions and
toanage

She was a paddlewheel vessel of 80-horse power,
with beam engines by Boulton and Watt. This at
the time was a " wonder" in the fleet. The little
pioneer hai done much work in her time, and done
it well, and we never heard of her engines break-
ing down. They are as good now as they were at
first, and she is still doing (I.uty. The first attempt
at a steamvessel to carry guns was the Salamander,
builr ten years after the Comet (1832), by Mr.
Seaton, at Sheerness, of 818 tons, 220-horse power,
paddlewheel, and which realised a maximum speed
of 8.9 miles. She was one of a batch comprising,
among others, the following :

These mounted from two to four guns, and wore
considered steam-sloops ; but five years later we
attempted a vessel of the dimensions of a frigate,
and classified as a steam-frigate ; this was the
Gorgon, of 1,111 tons, 320 horse-power, and whose
greatest speed recorded is 11.1 miles per hour.
She carried six upper deck guns, and was pierced
for a maindeck armament (designed by Symonds,
and launched in 1837), and this is the official record
of her character—" Failed to carry her guns ; could
not steam off a lee shore." The next attempt at a
steam-frigate was the Cyclops, also by the architect
of the Gorgon, but larger and 12 feet longer ; she
was launched in 1839, was of 1,195 tons. 320
horse power, and pierced for an upper and main-
deck armament ; she "failed to carry her guns."
These two vessels when introduced to the service
were the admiration and pride of the navy, and
the Gorgon created as much curiosity as did the
Great Britain when she first lay alongside Black-
wall pier as a show ship. But, alas for the mute-
blity of naval as well as human things, the Dee,
Rhadataanthus, Cyclops, &c., have been long
transports of stores from port to port, and the
Comet, eon an Admiralty, and once the Queen's
yacht-, now fills the office of a supQrnumerary tug
in Portsmouth harbour.

failed, the designer of tir,,se notW•ilities turned his
uction of one out of a sailing

Her character is handed down to posterity in these

Slow. A 42-gun sailing frigate, lengthened amid-
ships 63 feet, and fitted for sea as a steam-frigate

1842. Her greatest speed was 9.6 miles per hour.
Another hand was commissioned to produce, (if
possible) a floatable and fightable paddlewheel steam
frigate ; the French Gomer having in the interval
of the advent of the Penelope and the order for an-
other attempt made le:r appearance in this harbour
with the late King of the French, here was a model
to be copied and improved upon, and in 1845 we
have the four-funnelled monster Terrible, built by
Mr. Oliver Lang, of the following dimensions :

Her greatest speed recorded is 12.5 miles per hour ;
the official opinion registered of this ship is, that
" from her large power and size she should have
done 16 miles an hour with ease. She cost
101,0001. ;" and this to carry only 21 guns, but
then we eclipsed the Gomer, and that was con-
sidered. something. Paddles still reigned the
fashion at Whitehall, and hull after hull was
launched constructed for that rapidly dying out
means of propulsion. The great historical fact re-
mains that about this time the Admiralty barge was
towed (their Lardships being in her) at the rate of
10 miles an hour ou the river Thames by a vessel
propelled with the screw. The day after this won-
derful experiment au official letter was received by
the inventor to the effect that the screw was " not
applicable to her Majesty' service. ' The little
Rattler in the meantime had been developing seri-
ous and importaet advantages of the screw over
the paddle in numerous experimental trials on the
Thames and the Channel, and, all the enormously
powered paddle steam frigates having yielded so
little serviceable efficiency in return for the great-
ness of their cost, the Surveyor tried his hand at an
old sailing frigate of the Seppiugs' build, and con-
verted her toa steamer with a power of a 300-horse
screw as fin auxiliary, and in 1849 produced the
Amphion at a cost 76,4111. Her dimensions were :

She was fitted with Count Rosen's rotary engines,
and has distinguished herself and her numerous in-
ventors and experimentors by braking down
oftener than any other steamer afloat. The cost of
76,4111. was up to the time of her leaving Sheerness
" converted," but since that time (1847) we believe
she has cost a good proportion of the same sum.
She is now in ordinary at Sheerness. Conversion
having done so little to produce either a good paddle
or a screw steam frigate worthy of the name, a new
hand was commissioned to build a "genuine"
frigate, and in 1848 Mr. Fincham gave to the navy
the Arrogant :

It will lie seen by the above figures that the steam
three-decker of the present day is nearly 100 feet
longer than the old sailing ship, and is as much an
improvement in all internal requirements as in ex-
ternal appearantee. It would be impossible to frame
a handsomer or more graceful body of the same
great dimensions than the Royal Sovereign, and
the eag,-r desire manifested on the part of all
classes to obtain a good view of the launch proves
that tie interest of such national spectacles has not
died away or diminished with the frequency of the
exhibi,ion. The time appointed for the ceremony
of naming the ship and releasing her from the
stocks was about 20 minutes to 12, but by 9 o'clock
the public began to crowd into the dockyard. Com-
fortable accommodation was made by Admiral-
Superintendent Martin for the berthing of about
10,000 spectators in at-dls, and a grand stand was
erected at the he ad of the ship for the Admiralty
and military authori ties an. I their visitors expect-ed.
Her Majesty's ship Si. Vincent and the receiving-
ship Bellerophon, which wee moored off the front
of the slip, were crowded with company, and nu-
merous yachts and steam-packets, as well as a great
flotilla of hired boats, alt hadeu with company, and
themselves gaily dressed ;n flags, lent a picturesque
feature afloat to the animat •d scene ash ire and
within the building shed, which was hand-onnely
decorated in various ways, and resounded with the
lively music played by the band of the Royal Ma-
rine Light Infantry of the Gosport Divi ion.
The stands were n,,t much more than half full at
11 o'clock, at which time the tide had risen so high
that the ship manifested eymptoms of getting
ic •
alive,e and it became imperative to nacre and
launch her to prevent the annoyance of her 1 tunch-
ing herself. A shout was rased, and Miss Seymour,
the eldest daughter of the Commander- in-Ch ef,
took the bottle of wine from Mr. Abethel, the
master shipwright, and, pronouncing—" Success
to the Royal SoJvreign, and honour to all who
serve on board her," desired it against the st.e7o,
and in five minutes more the stupendous fabric
glided majestically and securely into the sea,
amid the reiterated plaudits of 40,000 spectators.
She " broke on launching " three inches, and
her draught of water when afloat was—forward,
14 feet 6 inches ; aft, 20 feet 2 inches. Her en-
gines, of 800 horse-power, by Maudsley, are already
here and waiting to be fitted to her, which will be
done under the superintendence of Mr. Robert
Taylor, Chief Eni,ineer, R.N., late of her. Majesty's
ship Colossus. Never was the axiom of " time and
tide wait for no man" proved more aptly than iu
the launch of the Rod al Sovereign, for not even the
necessary presence of the First Lord of the Admi-
ralty was waited for ; the time of tide having ar-
rived delay became dangerous, and off she went.
But Sir Charles Wool's disappointment was shared
by the Duke of Richm ,nd, the Prince of S
ixe-
Weimar, the Commander-in-Chief, Lieutenant-
Governor, and other dignitaries, as well as by thou-
sands on thousands, who flocked•into the dockyard
from country places, excursion trains, dec. Sir
George Seymour, Admiral Martin, Mr. Abethel,
and other officials all entertained large parties of
visitors on the occasion, which was male a gala
day in and out of the dockyard.

This was a decided success. At last we had achieved
the object for which so many hundreds of thousands
of pounds had been spent, and a model was sat up,
from which have sprung the Imperieuses, Euryal-
uses, and Shannon of the navy. The Arrogant was
the pioneer of the new system, which has gone ou
improving in success with eaoh attempt under the
present scientific and practical constructive depart-
malt of the navy and under the surveyor-general-
ship of Sir Baldwin Walker.
The next impoitant adaptation of the screw was
to line-of-battle ships, and tho French having
started the construction of "block" ships, we began
to look around for some " old materials" out of
which to " convert" the new class of bulwark. The
experiment was unhappy. The selection fell upon
Cu Blenheim, built at Deptford in 1813 by the thou
"sir veyors of the navy ;" she was a 74, fitted out
at a cost of 80,0801., repaired from 1814 to 1844 at
a cost of 74,4551., fitted for a steam blockship on
leaving Sheerness for Portsmouth. (October 27,
1847) at a further cost of 76,9981. We thus get a
blockship which steams about seven miles an hour
with 450-horse power at a total " trifle" of 231,5331,
We now come to the steam three-decker of to-
day, as compared with the sailing three-decker of
