TUESDAY

31ORNING, JUNE 22, 1852.

THE

WEEK.

As the session draws nearer to its close, the
Whig-Radical party display a more unmistakeable
dread of that appeal to the constituencies, by which
it is to be followed. The understanding which
now exists between the supporters of the late govern-
ment and the Irish Romanist faction becomes daily
more palpable. The debate provoked by the
motion of Lord Joie' RUSSELL on Monday night
was clearly an obstructive one; and although that
small individual got a tolerably severe scarification
from the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER during
the effort, his object was obtained, and whilst the
valuable time of the house was wasted, a decisive
division upon the Maynooth question was staved
off. The course adopted by Mr. SPOONER on
Tuesday night, however, of taking the division on

the question of adjournment as a test of the deter-
mination of the majority of the house to explore
that sink of moral abomination, most effectually
turned the tables upon the brigade, and their
Peelite and Whig-Radical allies. The question is
virtually settled. The Protestant majority even of
the present corrupt House of Commons is in favour
of a searching inquiry into the doings and teachings
at Maynooth ; and has only been prevented from
authoritatively declaring its resolve by a combina-
nation the most factious, insolent, and indecent,
that ever disgraced the parliamentary proceedings
of this country.

The publication of the Gazette, on Tuesday, con-
taining a proclamation against Roman Catholic
processions, came like an electric shock upon the
Romanist and Democratic Conspirators, carrying
with it utter dismay and confusion. The law is at
length to be enforced. Popery is no longer to be
permitted to flaunt its insignia, and to practise its
mummeries, before the eyes of an insulted Pro..
testant people. Barefooted friars and passionists,
monkish mendicants, and other sacerdotal imposters,
if permitted at all to crawl in couples through our
streets and highways, dropping their subtle poisons
amongst the dwellings of the most ignorant of our
population, must be content to submit to a whole-
some lavation, and to assume the decent clothing
of ordinary human beings. This is at least one step
in the right direction. It is the vigorous course of
a manly British statesman; and it has deservedly
won for the administration of the Earl of DERBY
the gratitude and confidence of the entire Protestant
community. The next step, we trust and hope,
will be to insist that the Papal Aggression Bill of
last year is not to be allowed, as hitherto, to remain
a dead letter. A striking indication of the extent
to which Romish insolence would be carried, if
unchecked, was afforded on Wednesday during the
debate on the New Zealand Bishopric Bill. Mr.
CHISHOLM ANSTEY opposed the measure on the
ground that it would establish the spiritual supre-
macy of her Majesty in the colonies; and, to obviate
this, suggested that Bishop SELWYN should not
be styled the " Bishop of New Zealand," but only
the Superintendent of the English Church in that
colony ! Well may we ask—What next ?

The issue of the' coming elections engrosses the
thoughts of the great mass of the community, and
every day adds to the prospect of an almost simul•
taneous effort being made throughout the country
to get rid of the domination of the quacks, whom a
popular delusion, in the first instance, raised from
their native insignificancy to the position of legis-
lators. Some dozen or so of these gentry have
already received notices to quit. The THomPSONS
and other demagogues of their class are already
doomed by the metropolitan borough constituencies ;
and, having become better informed as to their
real strength, the Conservatives are vigorously
assailing those large constituencies, which, a short
while ago, were regarded by the Whig-Radical
faction as impregnable. Manchester, it is confi-
dently believed, will rid itself of the odium of being
represented by the vulgar Democrat JOHN BRIGHT,
and his feeble colleague, Mr. MILNER GIBSON,
their opponents Mr. Locx and the Hon. Captain
DENMAN being everywhere received in their can-
vass with enthusiasm. Contrary to all expectation,
it has been found that the strength of the Conser-
vative party in Manchester lies amongst the work-
ing classes. Mr. COBDEN is said to be uncomfort-
able in the West Riding, an opposition to his return
4ieing seriously contemplated. That pompous per-
sonage, Mr. LAWRENCE HEYWORTH, will, most
certainly,be ousted for Derby by our talented towns-
man Mr. THOS. BERRY HORSFALL. The most grati-
fying fact of the week, however, is the announcement
of two Conservative candidates—the Hon. ALGERON
EGERTON and Sir THOMAS HESKETH—for South

Lancashire. Should these two gentlemen accept
the requisition, which is being signed, there can be
little doubt that the League candidate, at all events,
Mr. JOHN CHEETHAM, will not be enabled to
write M.P. after his name. The more independent
of the Irish constituencies, too, are preparing to
return supporters of Lord DERBY'S Administra-
tion, notwithstanding the frantic dictatorial pro-
ceedings of Father CULLEN and his incendiary
Coadjutors.
With discouragements surrounding them on
every side, the Whig-Radical faction are resorting
to their old tactics—" enormous lying" ;—and no
trick is considered too disreputable to be put in
practice. In Ireland they have forged a charge
against the government, that its most influential
members have provided money for the support of
candidates opposed to any interference with May-
nooth, and pledged to vote for the repeal of the
Ecclesiastical Titles Act. The charge has been
indignantly denied by Lord NAAS; but still it is
actively circulated by their venal press. In Man-
chester the League candidates systematically malign
their Conservative opponents, and heap falsehood
upon falsehood, notwithstanding the prompt denials
by which they are met. In imitation of their party
in Liverpool, we observe that they have lately des-
cended to letter prigging. A. little asperity of tem-
per might have been excused under the peculiar
circumstances in which the League faction finds
itself placed. It is felt to be a little hard for the
subscribers to the fund, so impudently flaunted in
the face of the Conservatives of England a few
months ago, to be compelled to pay up the sums
set opposite to their names. But nothing can justify
their profuse indulgence in the utterance of false-
hoods, and the practice of tampering with the pri-
vate correspondence of their opponents.
The canvass in Liverpool continues to present
most encouraging results, notwithstanding the
efforts resorted to for the purpose of damaging the
Conservative candidates in the estimation of the
constituency. Again we are told that Mr. MAC-
KENZIE is to be withdrawn from Liverpool, and a
Scotch hack of the party, which seems to have some
especial and mysterious regard for our welfare, is
called in to give a colour for the assertion. Possibly
the friends of Mr. CARDWELL are fishing for a
compromise; but the bait won't take. The Con-
servative party are too well assured of their prospects
of success to incur voluntarily the odium of a coali-
tion with a damaged politician such as that gentle-
man must now regard himself.
Before we next address our readers, it is most
probable that Parliament will have been dissolved ;
and that we shall have entered upon a struggle the
most momentous which has ever occurred in this
country. The issue to be decided is—whether the
Protestant liberties and the institutions of this land
are to be maintained ; whether the ships, colonies,
and the commerce of England are to be preserved
and fostered ; or we are to be hurried madly on a
downward career to democracy, ruin, and the final
extinction of this great country as the leading power
of Europe. Let not the electors of Liverpool suffer
themselves to be deceived in this matter ! Let it not
be said that the issue is the petty one of the cheap
loaf Is it any mere fiscal question which has
banded together with liberalism the whole strength
of the Romish party in this country ? Is it for such
a question that the hidden energies of an ecclesias-
tical system,—more subtle and potent over the will;
of those who own allegiance to it than any whici
was ever conceived by man,—are put forth unspa
ringly, and with a desperation so fierce and so un
wonted ? It is for no such object that Rome ha
thus flung herself into the heat of t

FOREIGN NEWS.

FRANCE.

The " conflict" on the decrees of Louis Napoleon with
respect to the property of the Orleans family was heard
before the Council of State on Tuesday, and on the even-
ing of that day the Council pronounced its judgment,
which, though not yet officially promulgated, is known to
be favourable to the Government. The victory, however,
was only achieved by a narrow majority, the double vote
of M. Baroche, the President, turning the scale in favour
of the decree. But even the obsequious Council of State
felt that it could not defend the whole measure, for an
exception was made in favour of the property derived
through Madame Adelaide, the late King's sister, whose
lands could not possibly be confiscated under the same
plea as those which had been the special property of Louis
Philippe. The Orleans Princes can present another ap-
peal, and have the question tried on its merits ; it is
thought they will do so, but as the President declares
himself firmly resolved, it is probable that after all this
arbitrary act of spoliation will be completed.—The Com-
mittee on the Budget have recommended a reduction in
the army. They had an interview with General St.
Arnaud, the Minister of War, to state their wishes, but
the General informed them that at some future period
" he might send 30,000 men back to their homes," but
at present 400,000 men were necessary .—The Paine an-
nounces that the Government intends to bring in a bill
to abolish trial by jury; and the Pays affirms that urgent
business will render necessary an extraordinary sitting of
the legislative body.
The Committee of the legislative body on the New
Taxes Bills was appointed on Thursday afternoon, and is
stated to be hostile in the proportion of 10 to 1. The
been so ill received by the members of the
thought the Government will

thought, will s

hortly be released
