      The great Conservative leader has at length spoken his views of the Irish Church Bill . Some persons think that he might have told them shortly .

      Those , who consider that the hostility which we have always shown towards the Emperor of the French needs a justification , had better read a complete series of the articles published in the semi-official papers of Paris on the Belgian question . When we remember that it is in the power of the Emperor to stop

      those gross insults , and lies , which have been showered forth by such creatures , as De Cassagnac , against a friendly country , we cannot but loathe the Government which can stoop to profit by such hired brutality of the pen—a Government whose very foundation , be it remembered , rests on the hired brutality of the sword .

      There has been one political outrage committed lately on the person of the Right Honourable John Bright , which attracted but little attention . It was none the less cruel . A certain paper , which has thoroughly succeeded in reaching the level of the bucolic Boeotians whom it seeks to amuse , gave , as

      a portrait of the worthy President of the Board of Trade , an exact likeness of "John Bull ' s Favourite , " the great comic singer , who is always such , a hero , on the night of the Boat Race , with the excited University men , who turn the peaceful shades of Evans' into a pandemonium . Perhaps the great Tribune may consider this a compliment .
