There is a fatality about the 0 « - it in is

    ali ^ ion . ; fail ? everything . The etession a , Berifr * of disaatera , and all prestige is disappearing : a . nd only t * at the Radicals are MiniBterialiste , — to Ihejr conspicuous disgrace consenting to an Oxford Reform Bill which excludes Dissenters ,- — majteing no opposition to a ludicrous Militia Billan < £ letting the National Debt increase ^ o » ooo , 00 © Z . per quarter , without obtaining aay condition as to the application of the money , —the country would ring with an agitation against all the Taleato , who can carry nothing . What has happened to tile Reform Bill has happened with all their bills ; th « y

    are all burked , or . b . ot < jhe < S , or aborted . The Poorlaw Bill gone—the only regret being tj&at Mr . Balnea did not go witli it . The Oaths BUI with no change . The Railway a . nd Canal Bill so cut clown , that if Go-rernment does gain what it wanted , Mr . Cardwell loses his reputation . Then the Oxford Refotra Bill : on Monday night Government was defeated on at , and on Thursday they so narrowly escaped another defeat that Mr . Gladstone rushed into an anticipatory passion—the arrangement being , that , if put into a minority , Government would withdraw the bill altogether . But Mr . Gladstone was in suoli a

    passion , not because of his fears far Oxford reform , but because of his apprehensions of the failure of his own finance , lie m ; iy afford indiffbrenco to City sneers about his -commutation and Exchequer sclK'raes . But he is finding out that ho cannot get ors-withouta loan , and that he ha 9 blundered in not having fuced that necessity from the first . But for tlie Oxford Reform question , and Mr . G 3 adstone's Laid temper thereon , the week would have been without an iuci < l « nt . And there is much politi cal meaning in the strange fnct that an Oxford

    morning he no doubt admitted that goodHemper is a good thing , naoxe particularly when dull , s ^ uir ^ have to be dealt with , and . that it was hardly worthy of him or . his position to get up a I ^ ovie of Gonainon § ' jeer on a . scene between himself and a Hr , Henjey—the whole gratafloation belng-to the , young Tories , who caoxe away from Fidelio to laugh at ) him .

    It is . no wonder he is irritaWe . Not to mention ttoe financial perplexities of a Chancellor of the Exchequer , who haa gone on talking of the certainty of peace while the supplementary estimates were pouring in , there are circumsfcanoee about this Oxford bill sufficient to depress him . It 1 » a " Reform" bill which has to face obstruct ! yes without

    being accompanied by the sympathy of Reformers : and carrying it through the Commons- by the mere dead veight of negative and indifferent votes , he has had to do all the propulsive talking by himself , juat as though it were a Budget he was la charge of ;— - JLord John ' s assistance being of the sort strong men like to do without . And , then , the bill is not his

    own bill , but a compromise bill , for wliidbi he la only half responaiblo , though ho will have to bear t-Ue wholo unpopularity of it . Mr . Glad&ione must be finding out that ho is not tlic kind of man that can sink individuality in a Coalition Government l > y departments . Minus the Oxford bill , what is the Parliamentary
