LONDON. Friday, Dec. 10, 1882
My predictions on the eventful results of the
renewed party struggle in Parliament have been
realized. AT the opening of the session the op-
IL
ministers; but the several conflicting fractions
which composed that majority have, since then
mutually paralyzed each other. The House of
Commons, on the 26th of November, when il
adopted instead Ofthe radical" free trade res
clution of Mr.. Villers, the equivOcal amendment
of Lord Palmerston, offered the spectacle of
universal and mutual cheating, of the general
dissolution and dislocatiOn of all the old parlia-
mentary parties.
The resolution of Mr.. Villiers. which designed
the act of 1916 as " wise and just, was drawn
upwithOut the knowledge Golden aud Bright,
the free traders par excellence. The Wings had
resolved to act for the interests OF the free trad
ers without concedng 10 them either the ini
tiative or any share in the Government, after
the presumed victory. Russell, the original
author OF the words wise and just" SO often
sive TO the ministry, gave his consent to the
Graham amendment the Peelites, joined by the
mnsteriasts, rendered a proposition which
recognizes the expediency OF free trade for the
future. and denies il in the past, leaving the
Tories at liberty to compensate for the losses
sustained b. the act of Sir Robert Peel; the
same PeeliteS rejected the amendment of
Disraeli, and reasuming their own proposition,
prepared TO support the original free trade res
olution: the Wings. on the very eve OF triumph,
routed by the appearance of Palmerston, who
took up the amendment of Graham, and thus,
with the assistance of the Peelites, secured the
victory to the Ministerialists; finally the victory
itself, won by protectionist ministry consisted
in the recognition of free trade, and was opposed
by none bur the fity-three most decided adher-
ents of their own party. Such an imbrogGo of
false positions, party intrigues, Parliamentary
maneuvers, mutual treasons, &c, is the resume
of the debate ON the 26th in which the policy Of
free trade was officially acknowledged, but inter-
preted by PrOtectOnists, represented by Pro-
tectionists, and 10 be carried out by Protection
lists.
In former letter, written before the com
mencement of the session, Indicated already
that Disraeli, after dropping himself in his cleo
/ pioneering speeches, the restoration OF the corn
laws, intended TO compensate the landlords in
the shape of tax reform, which would enable
ZIONIST rents BY taking off the farmers shout
ders part ofthe present weight Of taxation, and
imposing it on the backs of the mass of the peo-
pie, Disraeli fatters himself to have discovered
panacea for the suffering landlords far more
available than the old precarl0us system OF pro-
lection which speculated directly on the stOm-
achs of the multitude. To speculate on their
pockets-such is the ingenious plan of Mr. Dis.
raeli, now revealed in his budget, which, on the
Sd inst, he laid before the House Of Commons,
and the fate Of which will probably be decided
in this nights debate.
Ii is customary with German Governments
and German philanthropsts to talk of inca
sures for the elevation Of the laboring classes
(SIassregeln EUR Hebung der arbeltenden
Classen) Now, Mr. Dsraeli's budget might
not improperly be called series of measures
for the elevation OF the idle classes" However,
as in the case of our German Governments and
philanthrOpists, such measures have regularly
turned out mere shams, SO also the plan at
present contemplated by the English Chancel-
Tor of the Exchequer for the benefit of the idle
classes is a plain humbug, intended to induce
the farmers the more readily TO pay their actual
high rents, by holding out TO them an apparent
reduction of their burdens a deusi0n which he
can only practise upon them by some evident
real detraudation OF the town population.
DlsTdeli had, iOr long tlHle, inysteriOusiy au.
nOunced his budget; he had promised the world
with no less than an eighth miracle. His budget
was TO put term to the strife of interests to
end the nternecine war between classes; 70
give satisfaction to all, without damaging any Of
them" u" melt the different interests in one
flourishiDg community; to create for the first
time a harmony between our commercial and
financial systems, by the establishment OF new
principles" looming IN the future.
Let us row examine his revelations which no
longer loom in the future but have already
since a week been communicated to the English
Parliament and the world at large. As il be-
hoyes such revelations Of mysteries, Disraeli
introduced them with the fitting ceremonial and
important looking behaviour. Peel, in his hnan-
cial statement of 1912 had spoken for two hours;
