      — I ^ The tyrant , who liad been getting physically as well as morally worse and worse , clung to " life with sac * desperate tenacity , that is a sore sign of there being good reason for dreading death in those among whom , aftera certain a » e , soeh a cowardly fear is manifest . He would often impiously threaten that be would outlWeall tie yonnger people ab . at him jet ; and though his time was * Wdentiy not far off iwould

      je noubewto be told of his true condition Instead of repenting of his past life , he devoted the wretched remnant of his existeeceto doing all the imsshief he eonld , and venting his malice to the fullest extent that his now failing strength ^ ouid admits ! . Nobody dared muster resolution to tell the unhappy old brute 'bat he must vetj epeedily die , nntilSir Anthony Demy , a kniatt , who shared our fnend-Drummond ' g aversion to humbug of any description , boldly told old Harry that he was on the point of visiting his redoubtable iweirsake .

      f indies all chance of escape cat off he bspan confessing his sins , bat it was rather too late , for , had nis repentance been sincere , the catalogue of his mmes was far too voluminous to allow of his cettin « thrones one-half of it before his dissolution . He had been ra tie habit or adjourning that court of conscience existing in bU as well as in every man ' s dreast and Ue always postponed it si&c die ; but when the tome to die actually came , or the die was rally cast , it was rather late to move for a new SSft ^ icd ° 5 the 29 th of Jan"ary , J 5 « . in the fifty-sixth year of his age . tbe thirty-eighth of his reign , and at leasttUe fertj-first of his saJushneas baseness , and brutality .

      Ue tod been married six time ? , having Avowed two of his wives , beheaded two more , and left one a Widow . ihis leaves one more—Jane SevDour—still unaccounted for ; andindeedier death was themost jfonderfuUfidUKcaoseitwasiiatural .

He never had a frieaJ ; bat he was surrounded by sycophants whom , one efter the other , he atrociously * sacrificed Cranmer , being a man of enperior mind , exercised

      an influence over him , and was sent for to his death bed , when he preyed the prelate ' s band ; but whether the pressure arose from cramp or conscience , rheumatism or remorse , penitence or " pins and needles , " most be considered a question to which we will Dot hszsrd an answer .

      THE EXKS 1 KG PARLIAMENT . 'The intriguing and bickering , the struggling and strfcing , the changing and swerving of sk 'ysars , is about to come to % close . The Septennial Tarliamentary cruise is'aearly finished , and the vessel of the State is steering into a port it little thought t . ould prove its ultimate destination . tBut It lias ieen driven frftsa without . Tbe liand of the statesman has let tbe rudder ohey tbe impose of the waves—he hasttood a powerless pharrtom -at the helm , and basseen the ship-ge on-despite -his will . Thus has it btsn with a niajorrtyTjf 4 he measures that have emanated from the present 'Parliament . Either they . fcave come direct from-: the people , and

      have been forced on the llo «* e , or-they have been ! carried in the name of the peo » le ,-aad thus obtained sufficient-strength to conquer indoor opposition . ; for it oftea'happens , in times of . political transition , that one- fection or another is enabled to baffle-its rival by entrenching itself behind . an imaginary rampart of . popular support ; attadlring the popular name to some party-measure , in which the people themselves may take little or bo'interest ; and thus serve th « r own purpose , while the people are satisfied by "hearing themselves tatted about in the House . But this very iaUung talks the popular canse'into power , and is iu itself a sign of the times . sEvea those measures , however , which have

      hecn based on a sound foundation , have been -crippled in fiie tortuous courses < of the Legislature . Whatifiiil was not engendered an the Commons was added in the Lords—as in tbe case of the Poor Larc ; -or , where measures , good in themselves , were passed , the machinery for their enactment has either bectK'defectlve , or concomitant obstacles have not been removed . Thus with regard to free-Tradethe sound principle has been vitiated or nullified , in being only recognised as a party-measure . The one monopoly has been removed—the Others—Without

      which iFree-Trade is but an imperfect reform—have remained untouched . Government are fearful of grappling with - the Election Law , the Navigation Laws , the Came Laws , the Land < Laws , the Church Law , and Taxation . The principle they have partially recognised in -Free-Trade applies - to these as well , — and they will have to apply it too , or at once yield their place to worthier and wiser men . Thr . se , with Ireland , will be the task , the OPPORTUNITY or the DIFFICULTY , according

      to mmonesly or expediency , of the ensuing Parliament , ah must now teel mat it is utterly vain iu resisWhe ultimate triumph of civil and religious liberty—some , however , think it may be delayed . 41 Not in-our day 1 "—but , like toads amid the sunshine , ; the retrogressive politicians crawl , powerless to resist , seeking out some dark nook of corruption for their retreat . Thence they have thrown themselves into the « rms of Mother Church . They feel their temporal weapons not sufficient , and they seek to wield spiritual ones as well . This accounts for the

      long-surphce dispute—which was well calculated to engage weak minds in a religious controversy—{ good Heaven ! do men suppose religion to consist in a white or black gown ?) This accounts for the commutation of tithes , in order to remove the sordid character of the State-establishment from too immediately before the eyes of the people ; this accounts for the rapid spread of church-buildldingthis accounts-for the Maynooth grant and Catholic endowmenS in order , if possible , to render the independent Romaa Catholic Clergy subservient to the

      State . But the latter are seeing through the scheme ; they see that , instead of furthering , it will impair the interests of their Church , in common with the anti-State Churchmen in England ; they , too , feel that a true church ought only to be upheld by the right hand of God , and not by parliamentary enactments ; they , too , feel that in the same degree as the people grow enlightened , Church and State will form a closer league , to darken , if possible , the rising mind of the country , and every religious community will at once perceive that the new bishops and churches , the new endowments and Education scheme , are but as so many , brittle shields held up

      against the on-march of THE CHARTER . But as two homogeneous elements are at work ac rSghut reform and political reform are progressing side by a'de-a chance yet remains for the monopolist "Divide them ! nay , more—breed dissension between them , and we shall be able to chain them down for another generation . " This is the object of their policy—this is the plan of their government Thence have they worked . and subtly , the Endowment Scheme and tbe Education Scheme , thinking to create discord among the popular ranks . Some , they thought , would lie for , and some against , Government

      Education—and this would produce a split . The Roman Catholics , they iaagine , would be gratified by endowment , and thus join in a crusade against the Dissenters ; Alas for them ! They have been mis . taken . They never dreamed of the almost unanimous protest against their Education scheme , _ not against education , but against a one-sided , a sec- . . .

      tarian , an autocratic education . They never anlici paled the advance made by the reli gious mind o ] tbe country—that those whom they called . bigot were more liberal than their jelf-assi gnated Liberal masters ; that the Christians of every persuasion wouldsay , " Let the Church stand on iisown foundation , and FAIR PLAY TO EY £ RY CREED Throughout the world «•• , I , ,

      It is with these truths ringing in its ears tha the Parliament expires-truths it has been incapabl of smotheripg it has been unwilling to recognise . Its death . bed is haunted by visions of murdered ' reforms and mutilated acts . An untimely death-bed repentance seizes it , now that it is too late , and it tries to renew the leases of iu life b y the nostrums of " Extension of the Suffrage" and political re . forms , vague , shadowy , and indistinct as are its notions of Right and Justice . We will hear of no " extension" short of UNIVERSAL

      SUFFRAGEtie know of no Reformer but the people—PARTY cannot legislate for COUNTRY , landlord for labourer , or factory lord for workman . The House of Commons is the jury which is to decide the popular cause ; it is a PACKED JURY , so long as those exclusively occupy its benches whose interests are hostile to the people . The very law forbids

      PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW . Parliament is working " double tides , " sultry and ' oppressive though the weather be , for tlie purpose of winding-tip at the earliest possible moment , and ; in all probability we shall next week have to record ! the decease of the longest-lived . Parliament of modern ! times . Its character , actions , and probable future influence , may form the theme for < cominent on other ; occasions . Whatever difference of opinion n » ay exist as to its e&reer , from the ( period that Peel took office to his retirement , there can , we believe , be but one opinion respecting it since the destinies . -df ifoe

      country were-confided to Russell . Its closing session contFosts curiously with its active earlier sessions . Ths curtain will drop on a complete 'legislative hlenk . Not one groat or important measure has passed this year . The only legacy it heqwathes to posterity is an addition of 9 , 060 . ^ 000 ^ . to the National Debt , and the recollection that -tkat sum , ¦ whicbraig ht have effected incalculable . permanent benefit for Ireland , has been spent in such a way as to be all but useless . We state this -with the recollection that a New Poor Law for Ireland , has passed—the only portion of the remedial measures in < $ he Ministerial 'budget which attained that distinction . Whatever its indirect tendencies and

      in--Bcence may be , -it must be confessed that , as it stands , it is not-such an act as a Minister who dc-«; red to claim the > credit of humane and comprehensive statesmanship would like to father . The do-nothing policy has become so common—4 he withdrawal ^ bills of the greatest importance is so much a matter of course—that it can occasion no surprise to our readers to find that this week is like the last and meny previous weeks in that respect . With the exception of granting supplies , no public business of aay great importance has been

      transacted . There has been the usual amount of motions and of talk ; " hut motions , bills , and " talk " have finished in ' withdrawals" and postponements to another session . Unfortunate members who will haveio sit in " another session ! " what eirr » mous arrears of Whig good intentions they will have to bring up I what a host of promissory hills they will be called upon to honour ! If Russeli and his Cabinet of Incapahks continue to tit on the Treasury bench , we much fear that payment of these promissory bills will be still further postponed .

      Among the subjects on which a " palaver , " as the Indians call it , has taken place , is that of Bri . bery and Corruption at Elections . This is a favourite topic with talkers .. It is easy to declaim against bribery , and to earn a cheap reputation for political virtuejand purity , by the repetition of stock and cant phrases and fine sentences against so notorious a political and social vice as the bribery of electors . We believe that that vice exists now to a smaller extent than at any period of our modern history ; but , however that may be , it is certain that men ;

      Acts of Parliament have not and cannot put it down . Make them as stringent as you may—multiply words—increase penalties as you please—means will be found in future , as they have been in past times , to evade the law . It has been s » id that a coach and six horses mi ght be driven throi gi the strictest Act of Parliament that e » er was framed , and certainl y tlie statement is verified by the fate of all previous Bri . bery Bills . If the mere declaimers against this vice were in earnest , it would be very easy to point put away by which they could effectually secure tbe

      nlljpot thev ProfeSS tO h » vo in view , and do a great act of political justice to the unenfranchised classe at the same time . The remedy is a simple and a radical one . Pass a bill enacting that every man of sane mind , who has attained the age of 21 years shall henceforth be an elector , and add to this the protection of the Ballot . Frcm that moment bribery and corruption will lie unheard-of , because it would be too expensive to try to bribe the m&sses , who would then possess the Franchise ; while the exercise of the right , through the medium of the ballot ,

      would deprive the briber of all actual control over the conduet of the bribed . The mere fulmenatwnot virtuous resolutions against a vicious practic 3 , or the enactment of penal statutes , whil t the strong self-interest of men prompts to its commission , is but a part of that irrational system by which men have , in all ages , deceived themselves into the belief that words were a substitute for things . Tli only radical and rational mode of legislating is , to make the laws and the self-interest of those who " are to live under them , harmonize . In this casei we presume , however , Lord Brougham attained the object he had in view—that of delivering a speech , and of keeping up a kind of traditional reputation for what are called Liberal opinions . "At this late period of the session , " as was patheticall y and originally pleaded by Lord Lansdowne , " it was impossible to do anything in-the shape of a bill ; and as to resolutions , why their Lordshi ps had passed plenty of resolutions on the subject already—resolutions which no doubt every one ot their Lordshi ps had violated in his own person , or through his connexions , with the most edif ying morality .

      So the Monster Statue is not to come down from the top of the arch at Constitution Hill , after all ! The " Iron Duke" has been consulted on the matter , and as he would rather have the bronze Duke where it is , the Queen has , according to newspaper phraseology , " graciously acceded to the wishes of the greatest of her subjects . ' Unless , therefore , s > ome thunderstorm or earthquake kindly rids us of the monster , London will , as a punishment for its sins , continue to be affiicted > by the presence ' of the mammoth effigy in cocked hat , policeman ' s staff , cloak , and military boots , which Mr Wyatt has contiived as a specimen of British art , in the 19 th century . It is lucky for Sir F . Trench and the fabricator of this huge metal monstrosity , that the Whigs were in office , —they arc so squeezable ! Any other Ministry , after the unequivocal outburst of condemnation elicited by its appearance in public , would undoubtedly have caused it to be removed , and especially after appointing a Commission of Artists to report on the subject , which report was decidedl y against its continuance in its present position . The difficulty reallyjsas , what to do with it when it was got down agaiaT It is so horribly ugly , that , to have planted it anywhere else in the metropolis would have caused a still greater nuisance than is caused b y it at present . We suggested , some time ago , the only effectual mode of settling the whole matter . Put horse and rider into the melting-pot—sell the metal , and send the money over to Ireland , It will be almost the first pecuuiary benefit derived from Arthur , Duke of Wellington , by his countrymen .

      The bill for making four new Bishops drew from Mr Horsman a startling and alile exposure of the johbery perpetrated in that department of State management ; and the debate incidentally damaged tlie ministry , especially Lord J . Russell , by showing him to have been incensistent in bis opinions as to

      the necessity or desirability of having more Bishops . The Premier , however , is working hard to have the support of the Church party and the Wesleyans at the next election , and does not mind being dragged through the dirt a little , so that he achieves his object . The Bishoprics Bill is a mere ecclesiastical job . Nobody in his senses believes that the creation of a Bishop of Manchester will in the sli g htest degree benefit the people of that great

      hive of industry . It will neither make them wiser , honester , nor happier . Its only effect will be to provide another place , with a title and a larger revenue for one of the numerous broods of privileged idlers and bloodsuckers who prey on the vitals of the people . It ie our honest conviction , that if the whole order of Bishops was abolished to-morrow , the sun would shine , the rains fall , the winds blow , and the world turn round just as usual , seed-time and harvest would succeed each other in the same

      old fashion , manufacturers and merchants would go on creating and distributing wealth , and the people at large work , eat , drink , sleep , and perform the usual duties of citizenship just as well , if not 11 great deal better , than they do at present . The idea that giving a man a title , two or three palaces , and five or thirty thousand pounds a year ,

      is calculated to subserve the cause of religion or uphold Christianity , is most preposterous and ridiculous—and this proposed addition to an unnecessary and exclusive class , is only one of the many instances in which Lord John and his colleagues have so lately violated " the great principle of civil and religious liberty , " about which they are accustomed to spout so ylibly .

      The Obstructives were , however , nearly beaten on Wednesday , on . the division for the bill brought in by Sir De Lacy Evans , to enact that the payment of rates up to the 15 th of October of the previous year , instead of the 5 th of April of the current year , should entitle electors to the ri ght of voting for Members of Parliament . On the amendment that the bill be read that day three months , the numbers were equal , and the Speaker , according to precedent , gave the casting-vote against the amendment . The division for the seconding reading showed 52 for .

      and 53 against , the bill being lost by the majority of one only . These « small goes" have very little of our sympathy ; but their fate shows of what metal our legislators arc made , and indicate their anti-reforming tendencies and predilections ill a manner not to be mistaken . It is clear that both Whigs and Protectionists have taken their stand upon the Reform Act , as a final measure , so far as they are concerned , and arc prepared to fight lustily for keeping things as

      they are . Half-a-dozen earnest Chartists in the House of Commons under the leadership of Mr Duncombe would change the aspect of affairs in a very short time , and that which now appears to many " lion , members" either Utopian or objectionable , would speedily assume both a practical and a desirable aspect . Is it too much to expect that THE PEOPLE will have that number of representatives in the so-called " People ' s House" next Parliament >

      The Home Secretary is determined to protect the coal-nwners' interest at all hazards . Mr Duncombe ' s short and simple bill to prevent the use 01 gunpowder in collieries , lias f ollowed in the wake of his larger and more important measure , for the better veniilation of mines , and the prevention of abuses practised on the working colliers . In the facs of the recent most horrible and deplorable explosion at Kirkless Colliery , where the practice of blasting wUli gunpowder led Jo the loss of seven lives—six persons being absolutely lricked-up in the pit , to prevent

      it from extending—in the face of this and numerous other similar cases , Sir G . Grey refused even n small preventive measure as a temporary remedy . The Government influence was brought to bear in favour of the coal-owners ; the influence of money prevailed , and the claims of humanity were rejected . Property , not man , is the great object of modern legislature and of legislative protection . What if

      the loss of a few lives compared with the diminution of the accustomed 5 or 10 per cent . ? Of course the lateness of the session—that hacknicd and ready excuse-was alleged as the cause of refusing a bill ' , which did not need an hour ' s consideration , had there been the slightest desire on the part of the Government to check the evil it applied to . The colliers will , no doubt , remember their oblieations to the Whig Ministry ! .

      A somewhat warm and interesting discussion took place at the Saturday sitting last week . On going into committee on the Recovery of Public Monies ( Ireland ) Bill , Lord Clements told the Government that it ought not to ask for the repayment of any - of the money recently advanced to Ireland , or rather to the landlords of that country . We have not the slightest doubt that his Lordship ' s views are enter tained by a majority of his class , and that the preva lent opinion among them all along lias been , that repayment never would be demanded from them 1 ,,
