the principles Of the late Government there Is also

| British De pie would be found. HOSever, there is
| little reason to doubt that as the Foreign Office
was in the hands Of the weakest member Of Lord
| Depby's Cabinet, 80 its policy with regard t. the
war, was on the whole, its weakest point. But, be
this as il may We take leave Of the Tory Ministry
with gratitude for the services they have rendered
to literal ideas-seryices far greater than have been
rendered by any professedy Liberal Ministry within
| our recollection.
In point of talent the ne Y Cabinet is usually
strong 1t includes four first rate in the House
of Commons, beside Lord Elgin snd the Dike Of
Argyle both clever men in the House Of Lords.
| In the Commons we refer to Lord Palmerston,
| Lord John Russell Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Cob
| den. The first three were members Of Lord Aber-
deems famous Coalition Cabinet, or Cabinet of all
| the talents organized IN December, l552-slsO, in
the ruins Of q Derby -Disra-li Administration; but
SIR Golden is entirely new to the cares Of govern.
ment His presence 10 the Ministry, along with
that of Mr. Miner Gibson another member Of the
Radical Manchester school, shows that the Wing
leaders have found themselves compelled to make
unprecedented concessions to that body Of sturdy
politicians, who, in the equal division of the WhiR
and Tory parties have come to hold the balance of
power, and to hold it with a sbrewd aud resolate
band. No doubt along with these appointments
TO Office promises have been made Of such reform
bill as shall entirely satisfy the middle classe,
But, Of course, go long as the war lasts, the To-
demption Of all such pledges must be postponed;
and how far Lord Palmerston will ever allow them
to be redeemed, must depend on cir ,umstsnceS and
on the need of retaining the now indispensable
Radical support.
For the present, the great care Of the Ministry
uu't be found in its foreign policy. That this pol
icy will be essentially hostile 10 Austria and favor
able to the Allies in Italy, there be question
Not only has Lord Paluerston long been the pss-
five enemy of Austria, but he has been the active
friend of Louis Napoleon. Lord John Russell and
Dir. Gladstone are known as advocates Of a consti-
tutional government for Italy; while it has ever
been the idea Of Mr Golden and his freads that
each people should be made independent and al
lowed to manage its own affairs in its own way
Thus the new Government comes into Office
pledged TO the cause of Italian independence; and
should the French and Sardinians succeed in ex-
