MR DISRAELI ON ENGLAND'S FUTURE.
A8 to the future, siys the Saturday Itcvieto, Mr Disraeli is in the highest degree myitenous and terrifying. He delight* in painting impending horrors, and he seen™ to wish his Glasgow hearers to believe that they would shortly have to cljooso ftt the swopJ'b point between a Rjd Roptiblic and an Ultramontane despotism. Tliey need not make themselves parl icularly uneasy. The way to combat anarehial forces is te show that we lire i*t ttruid of them. The imperial pohor of England is to repress vigilantly an * quietly, but with tho utmost determination, both Rod Republicans and Ultramontanes; and as nnicty-nine Englishmen out of n hundred avo resolved to uphold this policy, they may rely on cft'ecti.ig their object. The very thing that Ultra"ionUuoB, and, perhaps, lied Republicans — although we hear so little of the ln(ter here that wo nothing about them — most desire, is to inspire tho belief that they are possessed of a mysteriou*, awful, and boeret power, and that a sort oi buttle of Armaguddon may bo expected to begin at any moment. This is an advantage which Mr Disraeli it far too ready to concede to them. It in only nct.ee* sary to look the Ultrumontuneg in the face, nnd they will be fouud to be not nucb very terrible beings after all. The Examiner in glofl of Mr Disraeli* criticism*. They will help to keep our lender* up to the mark. Ihey will holp, above all, to keep »Uve the cry for careful and departmental administration, Which it has been the aim of nearly all the leading supporter! of the present Ministry to hush uji. Mr Lyon Piayfair will bo all the bettor for the existence of such a thorn in the side of the Tory chieftain. Mr Lowe, whom no one will »ceui* of dulnest, will not be slon to learn tilt losaoa of Mr Disraeli's sarcasm ; and the l#f»on mil do him good. Liberals in genoral may learn much from Mr Dwrieh's gimcrack opi^rnms a d tawdry rhetorical fiuory. Con<ereatives might also loarn-»if they would but lo> m—t he futility of thoir fcndonvours. The Tory article says he hears n " moanine wind," nn<\ attnbuta* it to tlie Spirit of the Age. It appears to us rather iti the monn of despair raided by the disoomfitod host of dHrkness and oppression over the cause which they feel they have lost
