." Blessed Are They Who Expect Nothings ...
. " Blessed are they who expect nothings for veril y they shall riot be disappointed . " It appears , that the journdists who stood , sponsors for- tha , ; Whig ' -. Ministry , and ' . -. ' . promised ; , all manner , of . good things to ; the . nation in their narrie ; have heen too . fast . ;« j . Their \;^(^ teges mean to do nothing , " if they can help' it ; Meagreunmeaning , and unsatisfactory . as
, Royal Speeches proverbially are , that delivered by the Lord -Chancellor on jhursday ,. puts a . clunaxupon all former compositions of the kind .: -Its whole scope aiid essence may be compressed into one sentence ' : — " We mean to maintain things as ^ they are ; two or . three small remanets from , last Session will be reintroduced , but , beyond that , ouriYiewdoinot extend ; our policy is summed up in two words —• Let-alone .- ' . " . ' ¦ " ¦ ' -i : :
Upon brie subject only , is the Speech in any degree explicit ; there is to be-no . yielding on tlie subject , of Protection . ^ -an , abundant and low-priced , supplyof . . provision is pointed to as the result of the Free Trade policy , and though that abundance : and , cheapness is produced at the cost . of itue . landlords . and farmers , of this country ^ their sufferings and losses areiiiot-to affect an'Imperial palic ^ Pree Trade isj still to be the rule . ' '''¦ ' " - ' ' - - ; . * ¦ f / ¦ ' ; ;' : '
But on the : great questions of the . Suffrage , Colonial . Policy , . and . Financial ¦ Reform ^ , the Speech is- silent , leaving us to infer-that the rumours -qri these-subjects , which'ascribed to the Ministry an interitiriri to deal more or less vigorously ^ with them , were ! unfounded ^ . There ' is , indeed , an = allusion to ' the I number ; of electors for . Irish Members of ; Parliament ; . but that isallj and that is nothing new . For the ; last two' ' or three Sessions , the rapid diminution l
of electors ,, the defects aud , . c 6 mplications of the Electoral Qualification in Ireland , and the almost certainty , that ,- in- a short : time electors would . become all but extinct , has caused even the Whigs to consider the propriety of altering th & exieting ' sys ^ ferent matter .. from . ^ taking ; upi ' . ith e . ' ibroad and important principle -which ; . is- mooted . by- tho unenfranchised masses -withl the view of makingat least . some 'concession - to the popular demands . ' ' .: ' ¦ " ' '• ''' - !; ' ' - " ¦ ; . '¦; ¦ ¦
In like mannei ; , the only allusion , to : Cblonial policy is the promise ,-. that , the . -measure with reference . . to . ; the . ; Australian Colonies ,, which was introduced last ' , Session and withdrawn , wiU '/ agairi be brought forward . . Ministers seeni to-, ' be . ^ utterly . obii , vious , , ^ f the , fact , ' -tliat at . the present nioment nearly thejWhole ' ojfQuii colonies are . in a state of open : or . incipient revolt ; and that a ' powerful and inBuentlal gstrty , composed of' the leading m 6 ii of -almost" % ery political party ' in : this ; kingdiomjj areiiieyrm'ihed to . haye thei question settled , ori . a basis at once satisfactory ; to the Colonies aud-beneficial to the Mother Country . ; i ¦< : •; . /> > . l ¦ ' ,:: vr

Indeedj the jwhole of : the-document wears the aspect of having been the result of a compromise ; - ; Rather than , have an open split in tte Cabinet on the disputed points' it would appear , " that . they resoiyedl ; to saiy nolhihg at all , ; and , trust to : ; the ., chapter ofvchances for getting through . the : Session ^ adoing sas little as possible ; - 'apd simply . s " presenting -a ' passive'resistahce'taall demands for reform ' : , ;; : - !
