Ertmto of tije SEtoftT ^ ^ The Easter Recess has been attainod with material alteration in the relative OOsitiim . ^ Outs and the Ins . There has been morl tl h old theme , 'What are your inteutionV ^ ' ° uV > Premier has been obstinatel y silent aud M \ BAELi has been fr ankly ' in communicativn % . " ters still intend to dissolve Parliament as so 3 " « necessary measures' are passed , but what con J ? tIle necessary measures in their opinion no one | T es perhaps not even themselves . All we know ?" " * they aro in office , with every disposition to « ' , ilat and , considering the position the y have take ' leciuou
ueo uu wny mey snoum not remain tv for years to come . The new doctrine of tl ) e t * that Ministers are to have ao principles or Quiiii their own , but that they are bound to act inCn . rence with the generally expressed public opinion i thoroughly Democratic in its essence , that we pJ ? ^ find fault with it in the abstract . It may be a ? u no { comfortable one to the expectant Whigs and LiberaJ " who have their eyes fixed on place aud power , liecau there can bo no possible termination to the exist ,, ? of a Cabinet as ¦ umble' as Uriah Keep . ft . JJ fear that its humility is as h pocritical as that of « i prototypeand its selfishness not
, less . rjjr pretence of obeying , it may both master and planJU the nation . Be this as it may , the wind y waring St . Stephen ' s has been suspended for a fortmoU and , in the seclusion of the Easter recess « , Chancellor of the Exchequer has leisure to comjJS the Budget , of which he is to be delivered inuntjj ately after the re-assembling of Parliament , ik Income Tax expired on Monday last . It ' is the foundation , as it were , of our present financial system Can Mr . Disraeli do without it , or will h 0 be bold enough to resuscitate a monste he himself assisted in slaying ?
Among the few notable things which occurre d in Parhameut previous to the holidays , were tbe more definite enunciation of the policy of the Government towards the Refugees . The new Forei gn Minuter explicitly repudiated any abatement of the ancient hospitality and protection which England affords to Refugees of all countries , classes , aud political creeds ; nor do we see that the emphaticall y phrased reservation of extra national rights is more than every Government is bound to make . Much depends on the spiiit in which that reservation is acted uponand Lord Malmesbury frankly condemned the
manner in which the Austrian Government had treated English subjects ; while , at the same timo , ho divested his despatch to the Austrian Foreign Minis . ter of any warmer complexion than a civil and friendly reply to a civil and friendl y congratulation , on the accession of the new Ministry to office . Mr . G . Thompson obtained—not without some diffioulty-a bill for Protecting the Ballast Heavers of the Port of London , by the establishment of o similar office to that which has been so beneficial in practice to the Coalwhi ppers . With the general antipathy to all Legislation on the Labour question which exists in the House , we very much doubt whether the bill will ever get the length of a Com nubtee .
The Kaffir war constituted the topic of a debate only satisfactory in so far as it showed a tendency on the part of our public men to take a more common ' surate view of the question than has been done heretofore . The despatches that were expected to have brought th e news of the termination of the war are as unsatisfactory as ever . Sir H . Smith had made his vi gorous movement , but tho Chiefs remain
unsubdued . Sandilli , Stock , and Macomo , have still possession of their strong positions , and the country swarms with natives well armed and courageous . There can be , aud ought to be , but one end to this most disastrous , expensive , and in every way disreputable struggle . It is quite clear that we cannot retain possession of our vastly extended frontier line without a nnnstant sucee . '<
sion of such wars . It is equally plain that ( to country can gain nothing whatever in any w from even success in these wars . According to bir W . MoLEswoimi we could « send out acar . iaga and tour for each European Bottler at the Capo , and transfer them to other parts of the Glote ' at >« s 3 cost than that of a single war . ' It is timo ttoittk colonists and the natives were either left to fiwltt theit own battles in their own way , or that the former should be withdrawn from a position which involves every four or five years a war , in which the blood oi Jiaighshmeu is shed , and the country saddled with some three or four millions in the shape of expenses , without deriving any compensation whatever ei thorio the shape of honour or profit , for this waste of biooJ and treasure .
# Intimatel y connected with this lamentable struggle is the event which has caused desolation and sornff to many a fire-side in this countiy . A troopship conveying deta chments of various regiments to reintorott the army engaged in the field , sailed from Cap lown on the 25 th February , and on lira W ' oviig morning while steaming at the rate of eight knot ! and a half an hour , in smooth water , about three miles off the coast , struck upon a sharp rock . & bow broke off . The vessel broke into two I' * ' 5 ^ the paddle wheels , the fore part went doun immediately , the other in a few minutes afterwards ; « six hundred and thirty-ei ght persons who left Stow ] Bay only one hundred and eighty-four werer « cued from death . In twenty minutes from striking on t " rock , a few floating spars , with thirty or forty pn * ? clinging to them , was all that remained of a IP *
BUi , . and its numerous freight . The boats savetl tr . e women and children , and the conduct of both nw » and officers , in the midst of the appalling eire " * stances by which they were surrounded , seem s V > }" : reached the heroic in its calm self-possessi on , « 'J pline , and scrupulous regard to duty . As l ,, cause of this most calamitous disaster there can * no doubt . The Commander , ' in order to save tin " kept too near the shore ! The result of tM e . .. was the loss of four hundred arid fifty-four BnJJ soldiers and sailors , and the total destruction «' , vessel that bore them to a destination they were f never to reach . Coming so soon after the loss of 'J Amazon , and joined with the fact that two «»* steamers sailing on the same , track and on t »*'" errand with the lost Birkenhead , are behind »' the public mind Ikis been most painfully - Mf ! this most deplorable occurrence ;; the Admir * 1
