The Times of to-day, on the Irish Church bill.
says that the bill has passed by large majority,
and the peaceable termination of the session is
now assured. The great triumph is not so much
triumph for the ministers as 1t is for the power
of public opinion and the machinery of the Con-
stitutiOn. Looking back into the history of this
question, it is impossible not to be impressed
with the fact that England is, above all things
| well governed The scandal will now be re-
| moved that arose in the mistaken policy upheld
| by the whole people, and endured through lam
| guor of public opinion, but the mind and con-
| science of the people were at length aroused.

The Post says this great debate proves the
| peoples estimation of the House of Lords. Their
| judgment furnishes an additional proof of the
| utility of an upper house. The second reading
| is but preliminary to moulding the bill into
| form better to satisfy the nation. An analysis
| of the vote shows that the Archbishop of Dublin
and fifteen bishops voted against the second
reading. The Bishop of st. David voted in
| favor of it, and the other prelates abstained
| from voting.
