Parliamentary Pemmic An. On Friday The M...
cheered by very few except the Irish members . Mr . Whi < eaide made a telling reply , in the course of which lie . showed that the new Orange Association differed from the old one in this important particular—that it had ¦ not hing secret in its proceedings , that dt had been revived to support the Government in tlie time of the repeal agitation ^ and that the "Whig Go-vernment , with Lord Clarendon as Lord-Lieutenant , had actually put arms into the hands of its members , as Orangemen , to be employed against the Repealers in an anticipated insurrection . As soon as Mr . Whiteside sat down , there was a great stir on the Opposition benches . Not one member rose to support Mr . Fitzgerald ' s motion , but a
great number rose to move off and get out of the way of the division . In vain did the Opposition Whips endeavour to arrest their night . They pleaded conscience ( the Whips cannot imagine what members hare to do with such an inconvenient luxury ) , and made off as fast as possible . Then Sir "W . Hayter and Mr . Foster were seen respectively to approach Lord Palmerston and Lord J . Russell and communicate the intelligence that the game was up , and that if a division took place , the Opposition would be disgracefully beaten ; indeed , it ia known that the Government -would ha-ve voted nearly three to one . There was nothing for it but to play the finale to the Cardwell resolutions over again 5 and so , one after the other , Lords Palmerstoii and Russell stood up , and , amidst the jeers of the
House , went through the humiliating process of urging hypocritical reasons for withdrawing a motion which they had indorsed with , their Approbation . Poor Mr . Fitzgerald , though bursting with mortification , did as he was bid , and offered to withdraw the motion ; but the cup of bitterness was not yet drained quite to the dregs . The Government allowed Mr . Cardwell to withdraw his resolution ; but they are stronger now , and , therefore , Mr . Disraeli announced that similar indulgence could not be extended to his opponents on the present occasion . That a division should not be forced was the utmost favour that could - be granted . And so the motion was put from the chair , and negatived amidst uproarious cheering , and the Whig chiefs went home , wondering what would happen next .
Lord Derby came down to the House of Lcrds on Thursday , and his appearance and manner indicated that he had suffered , and wa » still suffering , from illness . He announced his intention to oppose the bill for abolishing church-rate s . This , of course , took no one by surpise ; but it is understood that the Government will themselves introduce a measure to settle the question next session . His Lordship next declared his intention to support Lord Lucan ' s Jew Bill , winch he preferred to Lord Lyndhurst's . Lord Lucan's bill , as is known , enables either House of Parliament to dispense with the words " on the true faith of a Christian" in the case of a Jew
coming to the table to be sworn . Lord Lyndhurst , with magnanimity , declared tha-t , as long as the object which was dearest to Ins heart -wa 3 attained , he cared not by what means , and at once withdrew his bill . The Jews owe a large debt of gratitude to this great man , for it is mainly owing to his eloquence and wisdom that they will at length find themselves emancipated . Lord Cardigan was , of course , bound to vote aguins ' t his relative ' s bill , and he made a very sensible suggestion—namely , that their Lordships should at once agree to liberal measures sent up from the Commons , instead of opposing them for several years and then accepting them . The second reading of the bill was carried by 143 to 9 7 .
