Give of his thorough knowledge of the diplo |
matte history Of England. His manner is calm
and imprcssive-his language simple but effect
i've. The Duke of WETLINGToN, who had been
sitting tor an hour DOSING when called out,
spoke feebly, and seems physically if not men,
tally broken. Earl STANHoPE, who seems much
of man of Business, in person, face and fea-
lures. is strkngly like Charles ]. Ingersoll of
Philadelphia.
The Gallery" of the House OF Lords is a
small apartment or "dock" separated from its
Lobby, and elevated three steps above the floor
of the House, where some twenty-five or thirty
persons can stand up-many must stand, for
there are no seats met Mr.. LEAvIrr, of the
Emancipator and Gen. WARD, of Westchcstcr,
there.
The new Parliament House, now in the pro-
gress ofconstruction. on the brink ofthe Thames
near Westminster Bridge, is a most costly and
magnificent pile. This cdificc, in magnitude
and muniicence, is in keeping with the other
architectural illustrations of Royalty in and
about London. 1t was in reference to the pro-
posed interior adornmcnt of the new Parliament
House, at a startling cxpence, that heard
Lord BRoUsuAM speak the other night.
quite forgot to say in the proper place. TINT
the King of Hanover, who is sou, you know,
of George III came into the House of Lords
while was there As he passed by me, with
his upper lip stuck full of coarse bristles, |
wondered what BOAR of Ardenes" he could be;
and was not at all surprised, utterward, when
informed that this was the King Of Hanover /; a
man whose gross nature and beasty propensi-
ties, were they not enobled, would cast him
without the pale Of society.
/ England has, as she needs, q strong Govern
mcnt, for the support of which she pays roundly.
| There is much here, of what have discovered
something in America. The individual who,
by dispensa,on of Providence rather than the
voice of the People, is now administering our
Government, enjoys neither the confidence nor
respect Of any considerable number of his coun-
trymen; and yet out of "rcspcct to the Office
he holds, when he travels, he is received with
demonstrations ofappOrent confidence and re-
gard. Here the principle is carried farther.
The public eye and ear are blind and deaf 10 the
iufrnilicS and vices of Royalty. This remark,
however, has no reference to the present Mo.
march, whose own lie is not only blamcess,
but who is surrounded by persons of better
character than are usually found breathing q
court atmosphere But the strength Of the
British Government, with its own subjects
consists much more in their reverence for anC
devotion 10 Royalty, than in cannon or bayo
nets. powder or ball. And it is for this rersor
and that Princes and Princesses are ostenta
riou-ly bern and luXuriously reared. 1t is 20
this reason, also, that immense sums are lavish
ed upon Royal Family. Royalty, surrounde,
multitude with awe, il not with respect an,
affection. Indeed there are few, if any, de

els and diamonds. But am wandering far n
