LONDON, April q, 1873.
Revolutionary Europe IS, for the moment, COM
paratively quiet. After the late hurricane, that so
uncsreuoniously leveled thrones and changed EN-
pircs there is temporary calm, bat every day pro-
ducss some event Of deep interest.
In England s1d Ireland no revelation has. as yet
hsppsned: the people are, however silently at
work, and their labor will by and by produce
change You would rot come TO this conclusion by
reading the English journals Daring residence
Of eight years in London have never been 50 ut

Parliament has adjourned till the st Of May, and
it would be difficult to discover any measure OF
general advantage to the country that has been
! carried out during the session thus far elapsed
MANY fine promises were made, but none have
been fulfilled, and it is the same throughout every
session. This is the cause Of the present dissatls
faction not only among the much abused Char
lists bat among the middle classes. One subject
il which our county is interested deserves sttez
ton. Il was stated in the beginning OF the session
that the Navigation avs would be considered az
an early day, and yet up TO the present time
nothing whatever has been done. The Morning
| Chronicle abiding to "a remarkable correspond
ence" that had taken place between Lord Palmer.
ston and Mr. Bancroft. on this subject, remarks that
Sin liberal and enlightened spin. the American
/ Government had proposed the mutual removal OF
existing restrictions On international commerce,
which. in their opinion had done no good TO either
/ country, and to abrogate which would, they consi-
| dered at once set free dormant commercial wealth,
without iniaring any one The advantages Of
closing with such an overture were sufficiently
obvious. and it failed not TO meet warm response
/ from Lord Pamers;on. Yet, eXclsims the Chronicle,
nothing whatever has been done
! It's the same with all measures Of real utility.
