Opening Of Parliament.


ENGLAND.
Opening Of Parliament.
The news of the week has been centered in the
opening of Parliament, and in the measures
which the Queens speech was likely to develope.
This event took place on Tuesday, and so far as
the ROYAL speech is concerned, that document has
not given satisfaction to those gentlemen who
looked forward to it for declaration Of hostility
70 the Catholic Church, on account of the recent
acts OF the Pope. Upon that point, the speech is
regarded az being extremely Whiggish.
Her Majesty opened the session in person, and
the procession which accompanied her to the
House of Lords was more than usually imposing
and enthusiastic. Her Majesty was received In
due form at the entrance Of the House OF Lords,
where, having ascended the Throne, and the gen.
tlemen Of the House Of Commons having been
Summoned Her Majesty was pleased to read the
following speech:
MY Lords and Gentlemen;

Having concluded the speech her Majesty re-
placed Il in the hands OF the Lord Chancellor,
and, after greeting the house al sides retired
in proce ssion; the same order being maintained
as upon her entrance.
Amer bearing the Royal speech the House OF
Lords adjourned till five O'Clock, when the al
dress was moved by
The Earl Of bingham, who first called the at
tention Of the house 10 those subjects in the speech

The noble Lord then went on 70 regret the ex'
istence of considerable distress among the own
ers and occupiers Of land, remarking, however
that il was undeniahle that the laboring popula'
ticn in the agricultural districts had never been
better of than they were at the present moment
and expressing his conviction that the energy and
industry Of the British farmer would ultimately
bear him through al his difficulties. Turning last
ly 70 the question OF PaPsl aggression, ne declared
that

pressed, and he was glad to learn that measure
would be laid before them, which while ii did not
violate the principlesof religious toleratOn would
extinguish the attempt to introduce 4 Roman
Catholic hierarchy into England with territorial
designations
Lord Cremorne seconded the address.
Lord Stanley, although he was not altogether
satisfied with the speech. would at once declare
that il was not the intention Of himself or his
friends 20 propose any hostile amendment. As

concerned, il seemed TO him that the FOreign
