Lna«^Vm|^ T ^Er The Day In Parliamentiaq...
lNa «^ VM |^ ^ er the day in Parliamentiaqui ^ ii ^ 4 & j ^^ wqmry into Maynooth-r ^ -iii qoiry ititd' ^ lfcr , Benndtt at Frbme . The Easter Uwett-1 feaB ^* 0 « n | B ;* nd passed , and Parliament is " fit ' it ' - ^ tiuft /* flitt tilt—* talking ; ,. but the complaints thtff it fa doing nothing multiply , beyond precedent , and excel the wearisome regrets of former years ! Parliament is not even preparing for the elections — except by talking against time , so as to secure the completion , not of V the business of the conntry , "' but of the private business . To have left that undone would have
exasperated every country-town lawyer , every " important person in his locality , " who has any measure before the House ; and no Ministry would dare to do that , much less the Ministry of the bold Lord' Derby . When Mr . Disraeli and his chief were asked what was the business essential to the country , they might have answered in two words . — -the , private business .
The Indian'inquiry , however , was not unneeded . In 1854 , the " charter , " orrather the act regulating the Government of Xmjift , wjll ^ expire ; and although the inquiry was scarcely ^ ijequisite to collect information , it is as well to haveSit as the starting-point of practical deliberation . Our councils cannot get on , Lin modern times , until
they have begun with a blue-book . Mr . Henries proposed a Select Committee ; but in doing so he produced divers statistical eulogies on the progress made in all directions , in a way to show that it is not desirable to make any essential alteration of the existing system . And that was the general feeling of the Houso * , Some few improvements
were suggested—more roads , another bishop , irrigation , missionary labours , & c—but Lord John Russell roundly declared it almost impossible to improve the outline of the present system . Evidently the committee will employ the impending two years in deciding to make no essential alteration . The inquiry into Mayriooth is only threatened , not ordered , in the shape of a motion by Mr . Spooncrj but in the meanwhile ,, referring to , a
speech by Sir Fjtfcroy Kelly , who said that he should , support that . motion , Lord Clanricarde asked Lord Derby what his intentions were ? No ingenuity could wring a reply from the Premier . Ho snid that he was disappointed with the " fruits " of the act of 1845 , rendering the grant to May"Poth permanent , and enlarging it ; he let it be understood that ho would not oppose Mr . Spooner ' s motion , but he would not say what he wwld do [ Country Edition . ]
himself . His silence is construed to mean that he will revoke the grant if he can . And what is to prevent him ? Not the hostility of the Irish-- — if England will support him . Evidently he cannot yet calculate his _ chances . Meanwhile he is recording divers fallacious I representations' on the subject , which may be useful to him hereafter . " Into Mr . Bennett , with his diocesan , the Bishop
of Bath and Wells , Mr . Horsman has compelled the too yielding Ministers to inquire . Our readers will remember Mr . Bennett as that clergyman who devoted much trouble , time , and means to building a church and schools at Knightsbr idge ; who became very Tractarian 1 in his practices ; and resigned on a peremptory hint from the Bishop of . London . Afterwards , it seems , he went to
Germany , and consorted with Roman Catholics ; then went to Frome , was presented to the living }> y the Marchioness of Bath , and instituted by the Bishop ; whereupon Mr . Horsraan accuses the Bishop of violating the canons , and moves an address asking fpr a Royal Commission to inquire . Mr . Disraeli deprecated thief haste ; suggested that an appeal might be made to the Archbishop ; and moved " the previous question . " Mr . Gladstone recommended a " friendly" inquiry ; Mr . Walpole
accepted ; and on that understanding the majority present in the House agreed to vote that Mr . Horsman ' s question should not then be put . But Ministers need hardly have been so tender to Mr . Horsman ; for , in point of fact , no case was made out against the Bishop . The Bishop must institute a presentee if he be certified as a person of proper conduct and qualifications—as Mr . Bennett wasand if the Bishop be satisfied of his doctrine . The affirmative on the Bishop ' s part is conclusive ; but not the negative : it was shown in Gorham ' s case ,
that tlie Bishop must prove his dissatisfaction to lie on a point of essential and established doctrine , or the rights of the patron will be maintained . And as to Mr . Bennett ' s personal conduct , there was no charge of technical illegality . . Mr . Disraeli ' s notion of an appeal to the Archbishop , without previous proceedings in an ecclesiastical court , seems to be an illusion . Perhaps the " friendly" inquiry will be more penetrating and damaging than a technical attack , which might have been parried . „
Mr . Milner * , Gibson ' s admirable speech , once more exposing the mischief of the Taxes on Knowledge , has wrung from Mr : Disraeli the promise to « ' consider' ^ at least two of them—the Stamp and Advertisement duties . . On the whole ; during the week , we should say that Ministers have neither gained ground nor
lost it . Their appearance at the Golddbi ^^ dinner was an opportunity- —not used ; except in a Californian discovery by Lord Derby , of statesmanlike worth in regions unexplored— -to wita the regions of his Protectionist and Young England grounds ! -Now if he wanted to do a popular thing , he fl ight find the occasion "easy to his hand—the preservation of ¦ the Crystal Palace . We do not judge solely by the continued agitation in its favour , but still more by the numbers that had visited the building until it was forcibly closed by the
Commissioners . Lord Derby might contrast the crowds who testify their liking by their visiting , with the sulky dozen that stay away , and wish to spoil the pleasure of the multitude for their own exclusive taste . But the Ministers , at present , not valuing popularity , appear inexorably to side with the sulky do ? en . The public does not threaten much ; but unquestionably the Ministry that actually compels the demolition of the building , will incur a considerable degree both of unpopularity and of dislike .
Another measure would be the adoption of the Sanitary scheme so well urged on Lord Derby by the deputation from the society ; but Lord Derby spoke of " difficulties !" A matter of art is creating more commotion than politics can — the appearance of Joanna Wagner , announced as forthcoming , " exclusively , " yet simultaneously , at each of the two opera houses . In these days of scientific feats , such a binal appearance could not be presumed to be
impossible . Mademoiselle Wagner might have walked bodily on one stage , and have electrified the audience in the other , telegraphically or mesmerically . However , at present " the German Lind"' attempts no such feat , but goes exclusively to Covent Garden , where she is awaited with a fervour of expectation . It is presumed that all London will " go on Saturday "—to-night . So vivid and abiding is the interest of art . Tamberlik and Ronconi can draw crowded houses : and we
listen with ever fresh delight to the strains of thp Maftiri ; although the waila of Protectioniatsjjjp | j horrors of intra-mural interment , and thd ' , D | jijp of bad Water-supply grow stale with re P ^^^|| a All France is on tiptoe for the coming W ^ Sm the distribution of the eagles in the Chamj ^ S || p Mars . The day has been selected , with ww & , guato , as that on which the constitutional powers of the President would have expired , but for the coup d' & at . The celebration is to exceed in splendour and solemnity all that , ever Franco has witnessed sinco the Federation of 1790 . If the Empire bo not proclaimed on the 10 th of May , it
