fore in the full analysis gave you Of that fatal memo
rsndun and that extraordinary correspondence.

The power of declaring var Is prerogative OF thu
Crown, real prerogative; and II Her Majesty sum
mons her Parliament, and informs them that she ha
found il necessary TO engage herself IN war, it s no
" an occasion when the Commons enter on the polio,
or mpolicy ofthe war IL IS their duty, under suci
"circuu to rally round the throne and 10 taxi
"a proper subsequent and constitutional occasion o
commenting on the policy which MAJ have led TO th,
war" So said Nr Disraell IN the sitting of ID,
Commons and so said ali the COmmoDers, and ye
Tie Times fills seventeen columns with their comment;
Oh that policy Why was this' Even because il wa,
not the occasion" because their talk would remain
resultless But We must except Mr. Layard, who
stated plainly " If il should be the feeling Of the
House after what be should state to them, that the
conduct Of the Ministers should force the subject
ga Parliamentary inquiry be should not shrink from
"the duty thus imposed upon him, and would be ready
TO ask tie Ministers 10 tx early day on which the
matter might be brought forward" You will COM
pIeLend now the reason why The Times begins to
doubt the justice Of the Assy ran discoveries of Mr.
Lsysrd.
Lord j. Russell, who introduced the address in the
House OF Commons, distng himself from Lord
Clarendon only BY his information Of the words in
egrity. liberty. independence, civilization, whereby
be secured the cheers Of bis more common audience
Mr.. LsyaTd, who rose 10 reply 10 him committed
two great blunders, which dsfgured his otherwise re-
nsTkLble speech In the first place, te sought to
tabEfh the existence OF opposite elements in the Co
alitiCp, tie Russian element and the English element
the ABERDEEN fraction and the PalmerstOn fraction,
these two fractions possessing no Standardization than
their language and their modes of subseryency TO Rus
sia. Tie is partisan Of Russia because he does
not understand her, and the other although be under
stands her lie former is therefore Al open partisan
ard the other secret agent. The former therefore
eratutGusly and the latter il paid The former
is less dangerous fecause placed 10 open antagonsm to
tie feelings OF the English people, the latter is fatal
became be makes himself pass Tor the incarnation Of
tie national snimosity against Russia. With Mr.
Layard We must presume that il is ignorance Of the
nan whom he places in opposition to Aberdeen For
Nr DfIael, who enplO!ts the same contrast there is
"a such excuse No man knows Lord Palmer.tOn
letter than that chief Of the Opposition, who de-
clared already in ic44, that 10 FOREIGN Doicv s.
Minister had ever been 50 fatal to British ners,is =,
that Of the noble Lord. Tie second blup5e- oo,n,ri,
ted BY Mir. Layard was his argUm~ot that JSc To-.
as the direct organ Of tn Aberdeen nar.r becanse
tie seefet ara Confidential correspondence, two or
three dt.S after arrival furnished materials for its
leading articles, which endeayOred 70 bring tie coun-
Try to consent TO the neaIOus transaction intended at
st. IetertbuTg, especially its articles during Feb
ruary and March Of last year. Layard would have
done better TO conclude with Lord Pamerston that
those materials were furnished by the Russian En-
bassy at London, when he would have been able TO
charge both The Tires ard the Foreign Office with
being TIE organs Of tie ST. Petersburg Cabinet.
Holding the opinion that The Times is, in fact,
greater power than the Coalition net to its opinions
but to the data which constitute the reasonable
character Of this secret correspondence suboin the
" hole statement OF M. LayaTd against that paper;
