CHRONICLES and CHARACTERS. By the
Hon. ROBERT LYTTON (OWEN MEREDITH). "We
are happy to observe that the work before us is no hasty or
passing contribution to our poetical literature. The plan of it
was conceived many years ago, and its execution has been
elaborated, the poet tells us, during seven years of careful think-
ing. It appeals only to serious, earnest, and discriminatin,, cri-
ticism, and is worthy of that patient perusal which its author'
claims as a preliminary to any final judgment. There is no
masked atheism here, no brutal passion veiled under the thin
disguise of elaborate scholarship, no curious raking amid the
dead and foetid embers of forgotten lusts. In all these respects
Chronicles and Characters' set a noble example to our younger
generation of poets. The author has set himself seriously to
improve and cultivate his rare gifts by conscientious study and
deliberate carefulness, and he has presented Vie fruit of them to
the world in a series of calm, connected pictures, so arranged as
to illustrate one of the noblest conceptions which could possibly
occupy a poet's pen."—Macmillan's Magazine. Chapman and

PRICIC 4d.
STAMPED 51.

bill but in the history of the sorceress Medea. The
Church of England and of Ireland was one, and injury to
the one would be injury to the other. As for the question
of the interests of Ireland supposed to b 3 likely to be pro-
moted by this bill, the best thing for Ireland would be to
give it peace and develops its natural resources, but poli-

tically to leave it alone.
Lcrd-GRANARD thought-therJ was a good deal in the
argument for the bill based upon renianistn, and very
litt'o in that against it derived from the probability that
disestablishment would Lave the effect of doing away
with the clergy in their character of resident gentry.
Lord CLANCARTY and Lord RUSSELL both rose on

Lord Granard's resuming his seat. There wore loud cries
from tho Opposition benches for Lord Russell, and no

counter cries from the other side ; but, after some pause,
on Lord Hardwick's claiming precedence for Lord Clan-
carty, on the ground of an arrangement suggested by
Lord Granville on Friday, that there should be, as far is
Possible, an alternation of speakers from the two sides of
'the house, Lord Russell gave way, and Lord Clancarty

opposed the bill.
Lord RUSSELL was of opinion that great art had been
used in avoiding the real question at issue, and in throw-
ing dirt on opponents ; and he drew a. parallel between
the political conduct of Certain former members of the
houses of Russell and Stanley. Passing lightly by ob-
jections to the bill ou points of detail, which might be
easily corrected in: committee, and the advantages alleged
to accrue to lrelan I-from the presence of the clergy as a
body of resident gentry, ho -contended that the Irish
Church not only failed in promoting religion and
morality, which were the only true objects of a
Church; but worked great harm by keeping up
'racing the people the feeling of an inequality. This
ftlitrlifffittt- have beenertssneged had Mr.- Pitt's
pledge given at the Union been redeemed. As it was, a
cure of this grievance of inequality was imperatively de-
manded. Ho himself at one time had thought, but he
thought no longer, that an endowment of the other reli-
gious bodies in Ireland would bo sufficient. The Conser-
vative party in this House appeared ready to reject the
measure of relief which this bill contained, notwithstand-
ing its approval by a majority of the House of Commons ;
bat he warned them, by reference to the precedents of the
Catholic Relief, Corn Law Repeal, and Reform Bills, that
if this bill were rejected, bills would be sent up from the
other house by still increasing majorities for the disesta-
blishment and disendowment of the Irish Church. He pro-
ceeded to defend the conduct of the late Ministry in not
having undertaken a measure of this sort together with a
Reform Bill, and concluded by expressing his confident
conviction that none of the fatal consequ mces predicted
by the opponents of this bill would follow.
The LORD WIA.NOELLOR said that this bill pro-
fessed to be a mere corollary, and that the proposition
whence it follows 3, which had not been brought, indeed,
before this Ii ots was embodied is the resolution of the
'louse of Commons that the Church of Ireland dieuld
cease to exist as an Established Church, which implied
both disendow:nent an I diesestablishinent. These were
the real issues now at stake. But the bill, the vary title
of which was a misaomer, was, ap trt from the conse-
quences whit!► it involved, so full of faults of detail that
the only posy ble -way of remedying it in committee would
be by striking out every clause. By it the succession of
the Church, uninterrupted fur ages, would be broken off,
not because something had been determined, but because
it might be—with the result that the national Chureh.
would be placed in a worse position than any voluntary
Church, and that the working in the different dioceses of
the island would become entirely unequal. In the course
of a very elaborate review of the bill, for which he denied
that the Act of 1833 was any precedent, ho showed that
the consequences to the families of deceased bishops and
incumbents would be calamitous; that one of the most
practical results would be, by suspending the patronage of
the bishops, to deprive 70 out of every 75 cure. es of all
chance of benefices ; and that generally the action of the
Church, and the process of augmentation of poor livings
by the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, to which the faith of
Parliament was pledged, weuld be paralyzed. Then, pass-
ing from the details, he claimed the authority
of Lord Palmerston for the conclusion that the Act
of Union was against the bill ; and he distin-
guished the legislative interference with the Church
Establishment in Australia and Jamaica from the
present attempt. But the bill was said to be re-
quired as an act of justice. Now, there being admittedly
no rival claimants, there could be no injustice in the re-
tention by thedrish Church of its property - unless, indeed,
the possession of property by any Establishment were an
injustice to other religious bodies, which would be a prin-
ciple as fatal to the English as to the Irish Church Estab-
lishment, since the question of numerical proportion
would then be immaterial. On the contrary, the injustice
would bo in disturbing a settlemeni, to which much of the
physical prosperity of Ireland due, and in burdening
the Protestant population with the necessity of creating
a new fund for the support of religion. He thought no
better of the other ground on which this bill was put
viz., policy. It was the land question on which popular
interest was concentrated, and the present was an English,
not an Irish question. The bill, then, would not con-
ciliate the disaffected, but it would offend and irritate the
most thrifty and loyal portion of the nation ; it would pro-
duce two classes of absentees, the Protestant clergy
and gentry; still further, it would cripple and dis-
hearten the Protestant Church in Ireland, driving
those outside the large towns into Catholicism,
and, however deep now the affection of Englishmen
for their Church, perhaps preparing the way for the
overthrow even of that ; and this legislative inter-
ference with corporate property might prove perilous to
the rights of private property, which rested, like corporate
property, upon law, and the law as to which was equally
susceptible of change. He concluded by keenly criticising
the origin and objects of the bill, and by advising the
house, without being moved by the decision come to by
the House of Commons, to judge the bill on its own
'merits, and to reject it as an attack on sacred property, on
the supremacy of the Crown, and on the interests of Pro-
testantism and of peace in Ireland.
After a much interrupted personal explanation by the
Earl of Carnarvon,
Earl gRAN VILLE, in a lively reply to the objections
to the bill, drew attention again to his arguments, which
remained unanswered, respecting the disestablishment of
the Church in the colonies. He would not follow the
Lord Chancellor's minute criticism on the details of the
bill, but he believed them capable of full defence. He
then adverted to the observations of the Bishop of Oxford,
who however, ho said, had spoken with so much gaiety of
the probable consequences from the bill that it was impos-
sible to think he believed the fortunes of the Church of
England in jeopardy; to expressions, which he deplored,
of the Primate of Ireland on the division of races in that
country ; to attacks in particular by Lord Salisbury, on his
quotation of the opinions of foreigners, and to the argu-
ments of Lord Derby and other peers on the obligation of
the Coronation Oath.
The house then divided:—
For the Second Reading 97
Against it
Majority against the Second Reading —95
The house adjourned at five minutes to 3 o'clock.

HOUSE OF COMNIONS-LAST EVENING
The SPEAKER took the Chair at 4 o'clock.
QUEEN'S COUNSELLORS.

Mr. LABOUCHERE asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department whether he would object to lay upon
the table of the House a return, from the time when the
late Lord Chancellor Brougham became Lord Chancellor, of
the number of barristers who had received patents of pre-
cedency and patents constituting them of counsel to the
Crown, commonly called queen's counsel or King's coun-
sel ; distinguishing in such return the number of barristers
receiving such patents respectively during the holding of
the Great Seal by each Lord Chancellor respectively; and
stating the date of the call to the bar of each such bar-

rister.
Mr. G. HARDY said if a return were moved for there
would be no opposition, but he could not see that any ad-
vantage would be dervied from the issue of such return.
THE ORNAMENTAL WATER IN REGENT'S PARK.
Mr. HAWKEY asked the First Commissioner of Works
whether his attention had been called to the way in which
the work connected with the Ornamental Water in the
Regent's Park is being carried out, and whether the gra-
dients have not been made at an angle extremely dan-
gerous in the event of any person, especially children,
slipping into the water.
Lord J. MANNERS had had his attention called to the
subject, but he was inclined to think that the angle was
just what it ought to be—(laughter)—but the subject was
still under consideration.
