ppht be was found from the hour OF the Speakers
taking bis seat TO sleep, perched under the shadow
Of the huge figure Of Sir James Graham Young
thinking and TALKING as he did. With good deal
Of party verss,ility-haviDg been fret q Tory ID

sWbig as Member, then again Tory, aud again

pupil TO take Office unter the Wings, and since
then to remain under Lord Palmerston's govern
ment, after ell the members of his natural party
had retired.
Mr. Peel, with the cautiousress aud constant
laboriouspess of his father, has none OF that
adroitDess of debate and easy eocutiop, which
made Sir Robert, if rot the fret man, certainly
the frst MEMBER of the House Of Commons. His
secession would therefore be OF little Importance
in itself if it were no. for the powerful influence
which is justly supposed to have produced it,
and Of whose future action this move may be
taken as q significant sign. He has now retired
from office, under the advice and by the direction Of
Sir James Graham. Doubtless the hostility OF
which this secession is evidence may have been
created OF at least Influenced by the support given
by the Government 10 So lthwsrk to Sic Charles
Napier, who enters Parliament as the violent per-
sonal accuser Of Sir James. But come whence
it may, it is clear sign of the Intention OF
the Peelte party to press for peace, aud
on the opening Of Parliament to oppose uu-
mitigatedly the PalmerstOn Administration. The
effect is not a matter OF much doubt Lord
Palmerston will be placed in a minority. On q
dissolution he might possibly obtain, while the
war.tulse still beats strong majority. But it is
not probable that the Queen and Prince Albert,
who are both decidedly for peace, will give him
this opportunity except on strong popular compul-
sion

the Cabinet of Lord Stanley Of Alderley an efiete
and wretchedly small-brained runner Of the Wing
party, Lord Palmerston has shown great weak
ness. And on the whole, however tria'ng it may
seem to those not viewing it from behind the
scenes of English party, We know nothing OF late
which shows so strong sign Of peace as this Sc

A SMALL SIGN OF PEACE.

The late eminent British statesman, Sir Robert
Peel, was distipe uished at Eton as a calculating
boy. Even in his youthful sports he exhibited all
that spirit of inquiry and old wisdom under child
sh years which Dickens ascribes to Master Paul
Donbey Many who are now aged, but who
sometimes turn with fondness to those times, tel
that as the old Bob so was the young, and that he
never even shot marble on impulse, but always
with circumspect caution took the measure of his
fire. Ard thus be grew up, Doing ever not that
which was lust and best 10 itself but justest and
best for the hour. As long as an injustice, how
ever IL or strous could be maintained, he held BY
IL. and this he thought Conservatism. When the
world could no longer bear it he resigned and,
irving to convert necessity into lberality, was
wounded that his unprescient party did MT see,
with the keepness of vision he did that the hour
WAS come, and follow its command. Sir Robert
Peel had many followers but no friend In bis cold,
calculating nature there was no sympathy. When
be died Monsieur lie Pubiique' made show Of
re,p. ctful sorrow, but no individual Monsieur
went Numbers who knew him not subscribed
pennv IN his monument. No one who kne him
gaze tear.
Of his children all but one-th present
Sir Robert and both bis daughters took their
character, full of wild and passionate impulsiSe
meas. from the mother. The boy Frederick wa
the only chip of the old block the only true scion
of the Dombey house. At school he was wary
.avpg of bis pocket money, devoted to study, and
deco,ous, precisely q. was Sir Robert Peel A
Cambridse he attained high honors in classics, as
his father had done both in science and classics in
Oxford. And WHEN be entered the House Of Com
mons, he almost at once exhibited that patient
study, that frieid caution, and that delicate
devotion TO detail which distinguished bis father.
On the evening Of bis maiden speech, which
was delivered in favor Of Jewish Emsnci-
nation, it is said that nothing could exceed his
fathers anxiety, aid when, at its successful close
SIP Thomas Acland, who from the hour OF what
wa, deemed his treachery to the Tory party, had
newer spol en- to him, came for ward aud shook his
hand. il was cold and clammy, and the big drops
stole down bis cheek.
But few weeks After Sir Robert died. and
committed this son Frederick to the political
nursing and cultivation of his friend Sir James
Graham. For cunning and caution Of guidance he
could not be committed sosafer hands Night after

Tie Matsell nativity is to be decided at last.
The Board Of Aldermen last evening received a
message from the Mayor, (Which we publish in
another column denying the authority of the
Board to remove the Chief Of Police or to inter-

expresses the willingness Of the Commissioners to
take up the subject of the Chiefs alienage, and

point If Mr.. Matsell is proved an alien, the
Commissioners would promptly remove him The
message was ordered to be printed and referred to
