THE MARCH OF EVENTS.

The recent failure OF Ben amin Disraeli,
the acknowledged head and leader Of the
so called Conservative party in Great
Britain, to form an opposition ministry,
after the defeat Of the Gladstone cabinet,
on the Dublin University bill is a circun-
stance which shows more plainly than Ian
guage can, the onward aud upward march
az events For the first time in English
history the admission has been wrung from
the time being dormant Tory element, that
they we're afraid to assume the reins of
confidence in their opponents, had been
secured hy one of the largest votes ever
east IN the British House OF Commons.
We have read with more than ordinary in
terest and care, the explanation of the OPP
position, the mastery arguments whg such
u course was deemed inadvisable and the
only conclusion We can arrive at, is that
the Conser, alive leaders were afraid to
appeal to the Country. and abide by the
Judgment rendered Under ordinary cir
cumrtances. Disraeli. Stanly, or others
occupying their position, would have been
justified IN dIssolving Parliament, forth
with, depending on the verdict of the
~puutry ID sustain their action. Notwlth-
standing :he courtly suayIty for wh.ch
British statesmen are SO Justly celebrated
even when posing lance, or changing A
defeat into victory. II Is self-evidcnt that
the sceptre has departed from Judah that
the party cry has lost its talismanic charm,
and that uuwelcome As the admission
may be, the Democratic leavru the tidal
wave has leayened the whole lump. II
any argument we're required to corroborate
this statement. 1t would be- found IN the
admission that the only hope Of success Of
Tory administration lies IN it, advocacy
Of measures far IN advance Of those cham
