      IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

      The Adjourned Debate. Mr. M. Gibson Resu...

      THE ADJOURNED DEBATE . Mr . M . Gibson resumed the ajourned debate He contended that the amendment to the address was forced on the house by the course which the Govern ment pursued in dissolving Parliament last session on i ¦ question of mere party politics . He had felt bound to dissent from the foreign policy of the noble lord the member for Tiverton , and to that opinion lie adhered ; but at the same time he could not see how the Liberal members of the House could pass a vote of confidence in a Government like the present under existing circumstances . He denied that they were justified in refusing confidence to the Government with reference to Parliamentary Reform , for though a right hon . member of that house had promised to introduce a comprehensive and satisfactory measure of Parliamentary Reform , lie did not think he could do so , with the state of feeling of that party on which the Government depended for support . He alluded in support of what he stated to the speech recently given at Ipswich by the Attorney-General , in which he stated that a large measure of reform was not at present required . He viewed with pain and distrust the sympathy the Government was said to entertain for Austria in the pending hostilities , and with a view to preventing any infringement of the peace of England that they should put the most favourable construction on the conduct of the French Government until something occurred to justify them in adopting a different course . He trusted that they would adopt the wise course of confining their attention to domestic affairs instead of having their thoughts directed to the dangerous question of Continental war . ( Hear . ) From these considerations he felt bound to support the amendment . Mr . JiixDSAy defended the vote he intended to give against the amendment , and in that course he maintained that he was discharging his duty as a Liberal and a Reformer . He adverted to the sentimerits uttered by leading politicians , in which he concurred , as to the Conservative Government being likely to carry more liberal measures thaii the Government of Lord Palmerston . ( Hear . ) lie alluded to Catholic emancipation , the repeal of the corn-laws , the admission of Jews into Parliament , and other measures of a liberal character which had been carried by Conservative Governments . He was an advocate for peace , but at the same time he advocated th « placing of the national defences in a position not only to defend England , but to vindicate her position , which was a matter of much more importance .
