The Ministerial Crisis ; We Were Not Imb...
THE MINISTERIAL CRISIS ; We were not imbued with the same reliance upon Whiggery which led its adherents to an easy belief in the power of that party to form an administration , while we were fully impressed with the awkward position in which the manifesto of Lord John Russell would place Sir Robert Peel . Very early in the contest , we announced the impossibility of
patching up an occasional Ministry out of the fragments of worn-out Whiggery . The times and circumstances in which they have hoped once more to clutch office from the chance presented by famine , are not of their creation , nor are they the party to control the one , or govern the ether . The public mind of this country has made a bound within this last five years that will render it difficult for any administration to keep it within the limits of party . '"'
The breaking up of any government , and espeeially of so strong a one as that of Sir Robert Peel , of itself inspires new hope , leads to new action , and requires new men , or men who are susceptible of new impressions at such a crisis . The altered circumstances in which the country now finds itself are mainly , if not wholly , attributable to Sir Robert Peel . His legislation cannot be judged by one isolated measure , or by one portion of his policy ; all his measures , and the whole of his policy , must be
reviewed at one and the same time . And as well may the Duke of Wellington have said to an inferior officer on the eve of the battle of Waterloo , " here is my plan , such is my policy , I resign the command of the combined forces to you—win the battle , " as that Lord John Russell should now take the command of Sir Robert Peel ' s measures and his policy , with the same prospect of success that Sir Robert Peel had a right to anticipate ; but not with the same strength of forces that Sir Robert Peel commanded . Let us
for a moment presume an impossibility—that . Lord John Russell could induce the Commons to repeal the Corn Laws . If he had got so far his difficulties would have only just commenced , and we know that the Noble Lord , during that period when Whiggery was strongest , avoided as much as possible any collision with the House of Lords . Upon the other hand , let us presume that Lord John Russell has recourse to a dissolution of Parliament , if beaten in the Commons . The result of such an experiment , at the present moment , would be an increased majority against the measure ; and the inevitable appointment of a Protectionist administration would be the consequence .
To one of three conclusions we must come . Either that the country will b ack Lord John Russell , and overawe both Lords and Commons as it did in 1832 , or that the protectionists , emboldened by public apathy , will consider themselves warranted in resisting what , in such cases , would appear as the mere elamour of a party ; or , what is still more probable , that a strong manifestation of public opinion would induce the protectionists to preserve that portion of their property which would not destroy their position in society , rather than hazard all for a mere temporary triumph of party over the people . In the latter case they would recal Sir Robert Peel , and this , we believe , would give the greatest amount of public satisfaction . In any case we hold it to be an
impossibility for any government to repeal the Corn Laws without the aid of such an adjustment as of itself must derange society , and must be followed not only by new laws , but by a completely altered system . It must not be lost sight of that the free trade party is mainly composed of enthusiastic expectants , some of whom base their notions upon the slight loss to the revenue , and others who base their opinion npon great gain to self . We would remind the first class of free traders , that it matters not what the amount of revenue may be that is produced by the Cora Laws , whether a hundred thousand pounds or a million , either sum constitutes the standard by which t he great scale of fiction throughout all social and mercantile arrangements is-regulated , It re-

gulates the price of wages , it regulates the money price of every article in me , it regulates , the rate of salaries , the rate of taxation , the rate of interest on funded deW * the rate of land , the rate of pay to soldiers , sailors , andpoiicemen ; and , once disturb the base of fiction , and the whole superstructure must inevitably tumble to the ground . While others have been theorising and speculating upon the measure , we have been arguing it precisely as all sane minds now begin to view it . We have called attention over and oyer again to the fact , that however , proper adjustment may hereafter grow out
of chaos , that unless that adjustment preceded the change , chaos must assuredly come . If the Tory landlords of England ever do consent to a repeal of the Corn Laws , it will not be under the administration of a party who would create confusion first , and then trust to the chapter of accidents that order might result from chaos . The landlords must be dull indeed , if they have not observed the move of Sir Robert Peel towards the necessary adjustment . His tariff of 1841 ; his Canadian Bill , nay , foolish as it may appear , the presentation of a bull to his
tenants , the permission to kill game on his estates , the calling together of practical agriculturalists for the purpose of conference , were of themselves , one and all , hints from which the landlords must have drawn the conclusion , that the Corn Laws were doomed ; and that they should put their house in order for the event , while the reduction of interest upon the funds was a significant hint of the adjustment by which Sir Robert Feel hoped to preserve the same position in society for the landlords , under altered circumstances .
We would remind those parties who whimsically anticipate great gain from the repeal of the Corn Laws , that from their anticipated profit must be deducted the means of equalising society ; as from their arguments one would suppose that there was to be a general scramble , and that they were to have the selection of the best standing room . Such a result , however , would not meet even Lord John Russell ' s notions of adjustment . Sir Robert Peel , who is a shrewd man , must have calculated upon the necessity of getting rid of the refractory of his cabinet before he jeopardized the peace of the country by so hasty
a resignation ; and he is therefore bound to repair the damage , and to make good the breach . It is folly to suppose that tho men , whom public opinion has stamped with infamy and branded with reprobation , can realise those hopes of progression now so universally entertained ; and yet we learn that the motley Whigs , of all things dread the infusion of democratic blood ; and to such a calamity they would preftr a compromise with their old opponents . This was the rock upon which Whiggery split before ; and the vessel is not stronger now to bear the shock that shattered it in 1841 .
If Lord John Russell was a man for the times he would have formed such a cabinet in forty-eight hours as would have carried out the spirit of his manifesto . If bread is necessary , why stand upon the brink ? Why hesitate , if Ireland is threatened with famine ? And if Lord John Russell has ascertained the fact , as we believe he has , that foreign aid is necessary in such an emergency , and after the Queen , cognizant of his intention , had entrusted him with her confidence , why did he not open the ports ? and trust to an indemnity which a starving ' people would have forced from a pampered aristocracy . It is
evident that he is afraid of his own thunder , and that he has merely used the God-send of famine as a stepping-stone to power . Peel had not declared for a repeal of the Corn Laws—Russell had ; therefore , what in Peel may be virtue and consistency , in Russell is weakness and hypocrisy . We believe , in the present state of the public mind , that the whole people of this country would bear any . infliction rather than again submit to the tyrant rule of a pure Tory administration , and we feel convinced that their apathy alone can lead to so horrible an Infliction .
Perhaps Peel relied upon more excitement than has been evinced upon his resignation ; but if he is disappointed upon the one hand , he may console himself upon the other with the reflection that the Whigs could not have insured one day's tranquillity without the existence of a government . It is a bitter pill to have but the poor choice of swallowing , Russell or the Duke ; and yet we are prepared for the alternative , because the country ' s good demands it , because the necessity of the times requires it ; but we would infinitely prefer Peel to either or both .
Bid Again, Lord John !!! Since We Last W...
BID AGAIN , LORD JOHN !!! Since we last wrote under this head , Lord John Russell has been placed in a situation that enables him to hid fairly for the only power that can sustain him in the struggle . The organs of Whiggery , in order to enlist recruits for one particular service , are damaging the Whigs more than they are serving them . Their policy , once more , is to deceive the aristocracy by an assurance of the little that Lord Joh \ Russell will attempt to effect beyond a mere repeal of the Corn Laws ; and to this fact , in a great measure , is to be attributed that popular apathy which prevails throughout the country , as far as Lord John Russbll is concerned . True , there is an excitement in the manufacturing districts ; but that
excitement arises from the dread of old Toryism , rather than any love of Whiggery . There must be a deep-rooted hatred of pure Tory principles in the country , when the working-classes can be brought to tolerate their old oppressors , and to mitigate their hostility to the League . Nevertheless , so it is , and , for ourselves , we are pleased to see it ; because , from it we learn the glad tidings that , at length , Toryism is doomed , and must perish . And as we have often declared that the existence of three political parties in the State is incompatible with the existence oi " peace , law , and order , " we rejoice at the opportunity that now presents itself of destroying one ot those parties , and thereby confining our future struggles to the oppressors and the oppressed .
We have no other anticipation than that the hatred of Whiggery , made now more manifest by the impossibility of that party forming an admiaistration , will lead to one of two results—either the restoration of Peel , or the supremacy of a pure , unmitigated Tory faction . Should the country be cursed with the latter alternative , we believe , in our conscience , that Ireland would rise as one man , while England and Scotland would not look tamely on at the scene of confusion that must follow . A Whig government may govern Ireland by conferring patronage upon the Irishipeople . Sir Robert Peel , with one exception , has governed Ireland by attempting to do justice to
all ; while the Tory administration would look to their Tory brethren as their greatest Strength . The foundation of the great changes made by Sir Robert Pbel will be ripped up , and the Wellingtons , the WlKCHBLSEAS , the BlICMSOBAMS , the Inglis ' , the M'Niels , and the Magees , would once more establish in its place the temple of Protestant ascendancy . While we highly approve of Mr , O'Oownell ' s not consenting to surrender the Repeal question , or to put it in abeyance , we must dispute his policy in making the single question of a repeal of the Corn Laws the condition of the restoration of the Whigs to power . Does he not see that the bitter foe of England , Ireland , Scotland , and the
world , is in the field , and does he not sufficiently understand their tactics to know that no stone will be left unturned to secure their supremacy ? And does he not further know that there is not sufficient charm is the name of Whiggery to arouse the public mind to the extent necessary to save us from the tender mercies of Toryism ? "After a storm comes a calm , " and we would caution all parties who are now bidding for power
against the dangers of re-action . We cannot undertake to say how the announcement of a Tory administration would be received either by Sir Robert Peel or Lord John Russell ; but this we do know , that it would be taken by the people as a declaration of war ; nor do we rightly see our way out of that labyrinth into which the resi gnation of Sir Robert Peel has led us . The resistance of the landed aristocracy to a repeal of the Com Lftw 0 iB not to foe measured by the feeble resistance they offered to the
Bid Again, Lord John !!! Since We Last W...
Reform ' . ' Bin . In the one case they found perfect projection for what they now possess in the Chandos oj ^ usei ' ahd their majority in the Lords , while in the other case'they will calculate that the repeal of the Corn Laws ia biit the beginning of the end . In the one case they could estimate their loss with arithmetical precision , in the other case there is no scale by which they can measure their loss or their danger . We are sorry to be prophets when we foretell evil , but we adhere to our prophecy , a thousand times re « peated , that the landlords of this country will hazard revolution rather than surrender the Corn Laws . . .
The danger that we have ever ascribed to the change we still see . It is the long period of confusion that must precede the settlement of the measure . We have asserted , and reasonably , that if the price of bread does not fall , the measure fails in its effect . If it does fall wheat must fall ; and if wheat falls , land , that produces it , must fall , and the free traders must not "lay the flattering unction to their souls , " that the landlords who have so long lived upon the plunder will not be able to estimate its loss . We believe that a repeal of the Corn Laws would be followed by a tremendous fall in rents , until the question was finally settled ; while we also believe that , when settled , agriculture would progress with ten-fold rapidity . Why , then , do we dread the chaos ,
if so much good is to be the result ? We dread it , because the parties , who anticipate the greatestbenefit from the change , would be able to live in idleness as spectators during the struggle ; while those who would ibe the immediate sufferers are unable to sustain a single week of idleness ; and yet , strange to say , notwithstanding the many phantoms that the storm presents to our minds , we would bear them all with resignation rather than witness the ascendancy of a pure Tory government , or hear the howl of hunger ringing through this sea-bound dungeon . Therefore , if hunger does threaten us , and if the monster can be stayed in his march , and if there is still a greater monster ready to take advantage of the calamity , we say
" Bid again , Lord John , " and , if you are not afraid of your own thunder , arrest the famine , and stay the monster ' s hand , by calling the people , instead of their oppressors , to your aid . Rely upon popular support , or depend upon it yon will march out of office as quickly as you marched in , and a defeat now would seal the doom of you and Whiggery for ever .
Movements Of The Whigs. [ From T He Morn...
MOVEMENTS OF THE WHIGS . [ From t he Morning Chronicle of Saturday , Dec , 13 . J Yesterday , Lord John Russell , immediately on his return to town from having an audience of her Majesty , was waited on by Viscount Palmerston , t he Righ t Hon . Francis T . Baring , and several of his political friends . Viscount Palmerston remained a considerable time in private consultation with Lord John Russell . We have reason to believe that Viscount Melbourne does not contemplate joining his former colleagues in the Administration about to be formed .
The Marquess of Lansdowne arrived at Lansdownehouse last evening . The Earl of Clarendon , the Righ Hon . T . B . Macaulay , and the Right Hon . Henry Labouchere are expected in town hourly . "We understand the Marquess of Normanby may be expected home from Italy at the earliest possible time . Viscount Morpeth has been written to , and , consequently , may be expected to arrive in a few hours from Castle Howard .
In reply to the various rumours that are afloat with respect to the " Ministerial crisis , " it is enough to say , that Lord John Russell has not yet so much as accepted the commission to form an Administration , His lordship will wait upon her Majesty at Windsor Castle today , and until his return , it is impossible to say whether or not he will feel himself justified In undertaking the duty of forming an Administration .
The New Ministry. Southern Star Office, ...
THE NEW MINISTRY . SOUTHERN STAR Office , Saturday Evening , December 13 . We have no certain newe as to the formation ofthe new Ministry . The following is from the Sun of tbis evening : — The Queen wauld leave Osborne , House this morning by an early train . Lord John Russell attends her Majesty , by royal command , to lay before her his deliberate conclusions as to the task confided to him , and the result of his own opinions , backed by those with whom he took counsel . Lord Landsdowne , Mr . Baring , Mr . Macaulay , and several other gentlemen had interviews this morning with Lord John Russell , at his residence in Cheshamplace . It is rumoured to-day that Mr . John Romilly will most probably be the new Solicitor-General .
[ From the Standard . } Up to the honv of our going to press , nothing with certainty is known respecting the formation of a new administration . Several confidential communications have been sent from Lord John Russell to Sir James Graham , last even , ing and this morning , but of course we are ignorant as to their intent and purport . Various reports were in circulation at the Westend respecting ^ tie probability of there being a coalition ministry , but none of the rumours have obtained an ^ degree of credit .
The Ministerial Crisis. [From The Globe ...
THE MINISTERIAL CRISIS . [ From the Globe of Thursday . evening , Dec . 18 th . ] We regret that we are not yet able to relieve the public anxiety with respect to the one great question Which now fills every mind and occupies every tongue . Lord John Russell and the Marquis of Lansdowne arrived in town from "Windsor about two o ' clock , and were shortly afterwards joined by several Of the leading members ofthe Whi g party , Nothing has as yet transpired as to the course which Lord John Russell has decided on taking ; but it is still reported that the result will be an administration of which his lordship will be the Chief .
Theconduct of the retiring Ministry seems to strengthen this impression . Extraordinary activity has been exercised in aU the government offices in providing places for expectants , by pensioning off the present occupants wherever a decent excuse for doing so could be set up ! This has been the case from . the Lord Chancellor to the lowest official who had any place at his disposal . [ From the third edition ofthe Snn of Thursday evening . ] Lord John Russell went to Windsor at eight o ' clock last evening , accompanied by the Marquis of Lansdowne . It was generally understood that the visit of the Noble Lords was by the special command of her Majesty , and had reference to a communication made by Sir Robert Peel in the course of the day , that he was tumble to re . construct his Ministry if Lord John Russell should not accept office .
Lord John Russell returned to Chesham-placo this morning , at tSvelve o ' clock . He was there met by the ma . jority ofthe friends with whom he has been in communication for the last few days . A messenger was forthwith dispatched for Lord Cottenham to Putney . The ex-Lord Chancellor speedily arrived , and until a quarter past three the Whole party remained in consultation , J Lord John Russell left shortly after that time for the faroat Western Railway , en route t o Windsor A Queen ' s messenger has been in attendance to convev dispatches to her Majest y , but the Noble Lord carried his own message .
Lord John Russell returns at seven o ' clock this evening , and the result of his mission will then be announced to his friends , who are to reassemble at that
