PARLIAMENTARY . REVIEW . . " . " / Backed by a panic-stricken majority-the "Whigs have , succeeded -in -yiolatiag-the constitution of the country- , " and in passing a law , which , in spirit , ^ reduces Gre at Britain arid Ireland to a more degrade £ positipn ,. asrespects the right of free , speecn 7 than ' fhat from which Germany and Italy have just emancipated themselves . To afBx ; the ' stigma ^ of crirne -to the utterance of opinions is an -act so monstrous , that uteri" thai panic has passed away , men of all classe ? , and of all parties , willwbnder that it should have been ^' perpetrated . / 'But , though what is . called s " edition-jnaV , ip taw , he

' with ^ them little of the wei g ht and . power of that trne ' arhiter of all questions—public opinion . The gallant minority , who resisted this atrocious measure at every stage of its progress ia . the House of Commons , were not wholly uflsuTecessful . Small as they were in / number ; they compelled the " Minister so far to g . ive , way , . afe . to" . iriake the most obnoxious part of theBiH , thatwhkh ap-i

One of / the / curiosities of . Parliament-, an- debating occurred in . the -, discussion iipon thesecond reading of the Bill in -the House-of Lords on Wednesday : Heniy , Lbrd Brougham , "Kith that consistency and 'love of freedom ' for .
¦ which he is ] so highly distinguished ,, gave what he called " a ' salutary , Warning" to : newspaper proprietors ,. editors , and * , reporters , that-they must not entertain the : fond-ndtion that" they had , in future , a right to print whatever was said in Parliament , "for , ^ although " / members " Hiight make / treasonable / and seditipuii speeches in their places in Parliament , and he protected by his privilege from punishment-Lproprietors , editors , and reporters ; might be transported for molding tbe ^ -ftctyis ^ tiqugh . they ,. bid .

Smith O'Brien ; for ipstance , were to .-: come over after Easter , and-deliv , eranother speech ; like that lie , delivered i last - weeki" the public Press must either suppress- the speech ; / . or print it with the-penalty ' of tranfcpnrtMot i'for not less than seven . years in . yiew , as ., he , con ? sequence of ^ "Heif exercising a idtherto ^ undis- ! puted righti ; * .
