POLITICAL

THE attention and curiosity of our politicians has been forcibly excited by the question of peace or war between Russia and Turkey; and the news of the last month threatens to incline the scale in favour of those who think hostilities inevitable. It is probable, that a war once commenced, will spread, and that every nation in Europe will be compelled ultimately to take a part in it: the anxiety manifested upon the subject is not unreasonable.

For our own parts, however, we are still very sanguine in our hopes of a protracted peace, and those

RETROSPECT.

hopes rest upon the very circumstance which would make war alarming. Its effects would be so extensive, so complicated, and so doubtful, that every portion of the great republic would run a formidable risk, and none could anticipate certain advantage.

Supposing monarchs to be as un-principled as their greatest enemies have represented them, what have they to gain by involving the continent in war? Russia cannot suppose that she will be allowed to extend her European territories unless she purchases the acquiescence of Aus

tria and Prussia, Austria could not maintain her Italian provinces for a twelvemonth if the French declared themselves in favour of independence. And whatever may be said by croakers about the exhausted state of this country, her power is known and dreaded all over the world, and the Emperor of Russia bimself would be very unwilling to provoke her. If, therefore, we should admit that war is called for by two powerful advocates, the ambition of a despot, and the blind fury of a mob; on the other hand, we must remember that it is deprecated by more mediators than we have leisure to enumerate. The great and the small powers of old Europe are equally desirous to keep the peace. Their people have not recovered from the last encounter; their treasuries are empty; their armies disbanded; and pacific pursuits have been encouraged, and are beginning to prosper. Is it possible that all this should be upset and changed by the ungovernable temper of a Muscovite and a Turk?

The principal domestic topics of discussion to which the last month has given birth are the state and prospects of Ireland, and the reform which has been proposed in the House of Commons. On the first subject, we were happy to find more unanimity than usual among the senators who take a leading part in Irish business. But the pleasure is of course materially abated by hearing that such men agree in their descriptions of the sister island; and are unprepared with any measure for immediate relief. Ireland does not merely stand in need of new laws, but she wants new men to execute them. She wants noblemen in every county, who possess the same power and influence, and exert them with the same discretion, as the English Lord Lieutenants. She wants our sheriffs, and our leading country gentlemen, who are always at their post, and are neither to be frightened or bribed. She wants our ordinary justice of peace,

who administers the one- and preserves the other without respect to party, politics, or private feeling. She even wants our parish constables, who are useful men in their way; and without whom we should find very formidable difficulties in the management of property, and the execution of the law. How necessary such persons are to the welfare of a free country, is known to every one; but how they are to be produced in a country where they are not indigenous, how they are to be forced into existence by Catholic Emancipation, is a secret which has not been discovered by Mr. Plunkett or Mr. Grant, and which threatens to be too difficult for Lord Wellesley himself.

We are glad to find that the general repeal of the Anti Catholic statutes is not to be brought forward this year; and a legislative body, which admits the impolicy of granting the whole of what is asked, can never consent to deal out its favours in patches and shreds. Such a measure would at once expose us to all the danger, and prevent our receiving the least portion of the expected advantage. The hopes of the Catholics would be kept alive by what they obtained, and what was withheld would be a sufficient ground for their irritation.

Mr. Plunkett has characterized the present insurrection as a war against property, wheresoever it may be found. A similar description was adopted in this journal four months ago; but the inference which we then drew, and which still appears to be correct, was very different from that which is made by Mr. Plunkett. He contends that the war is not of a religious nature, because its object is the destruction of property. But if this property, in a vast majority of instances, be in Protestant hands, and the motive for destroying it be that it ought not to continue there, then the war against lands and houses, and the war against the Established Church, are carried on at one and the same
