English Politics.
From the Tribune.
The struggle lor parliamentary re'orni in
Groat Britain has been In a picat dejrrcn over
shadowed bj the more imposing events which
lire trannplrlint on the continent of Europe; but
it is, nevertheless, well worthy of attention as
one of the natural fruits o( the victory of free
dom in our own land, and as an effort to extend
political rights to a clasa heretofore deprived
of an j real voice in public affairs. We have on
former occasions described the general nature
f the Retrrm bills now before the Bniian Par
liament, and commented opon the various
stages of the content over them. But for the
ake of presenting a complete view of the sub
ject, we recapitulate btiofly the principal
Jacts which are necessary to be known in order
lo comprehend the present position of affair.
The existing law of England divides the mem
bers of the House ol Commons between boroughs
and counties, the former bavin; much the
larger share. In boroughs, the qualification of
voters consists in the occupation of a house
woith 10 (say $0) a year. In counties, the
maps of the electors consist of occupants of pre
mises worth at least 50 a year, and owners in
fee of land worth 2 a year or more. A vote
may also be obtained by pertain other quallttca
tious not uecesHury now to mention, inasmuch
as very few persons cluim a vote upon any other
? rounds than those which we have stated. In
852 and 1834 bills tor the extension of the fran
chise were introduced by tho Liberal Govern
meht of the day, but never made much progress.
In 185!), the Tories being in power, but conscious
that they only held otlicc upon sufferance, in
consequence of divisions among the Liberals,
Introduced a Helorm bill, extending the right
ct suffrage to all persons in the counties occu
pying premises at it rent ot 10 a year, but
making no change in the borough or town
qualifications of voters. On account of this
delect the bill was relected. The Liberals then
formed an administration, and brought lorward
a measure adopting a (i franchise for the towns
and a 10 one .lor the couutiei, but hnally let
the bill drop, and lor s jears nothing was
done towards reform.
The present Government, under the leader
chip of Karl RussfH aud Mr. Gladstone, ititio
duced a bill, on tue 12tli of March lost, reducing
the qualltications ol voters to a 7 rental in
boroughs and 14 rental in counties, but making
no change in the distribution of seats, that im
portant question being reserved for a separate
Dill. Earl Urosvenor, who is a hybrid Liberal,
thereupon moved the House to retuse to con
sider this measure until the bill lor the distribu
tion of seats should bo brought forward. This
the Ministry declared would be tantamount to a
ote of want of confidence; and after an exciting
debate the Grosvenor motion was defeated,
though by only nve majority, in a House con
taining a nominal Liberal maloiity of seventy.
Thirty-three members, who npon any question
other than the extension of tho Irancnine would
3ave voted for the Government, now voted
against it. It was at this at age of the procoed
3urs that we made our last comments upon the
jsubject.
After the Government had achieved this very
dubious victory, the Reform bill was read a
second time, and then laid over until the mea
sure tor redistribution of seats wa9 introduced
by Mr. Gladstone. This bill proposed to group
together a number ot little boroughs and to dis
franchise others, each having a population of
less than 8000, and now electing one or two
members. By this means there would be forty
nine seats to-be disposed of, which the Govern
ment proposed to divido equally between the
largest coui.tics and some of the large boroughs.
On the suggestion of Mr. Bouverie, a supporter
of the Government, it consented to have these
bills sent to the Committee of the Whole House,
with instructions to consolidate them into one.
"But at this point new diuioulties arose, which
require explanation.
The very moderate degree of reform proposel
"by those measures will, perhaps heem tjour
readers a reason why the Opposition should
"have been also moderate. But. in renU.j', Ti'.a
very fact has exclied the special K.ieruos? of
the Tories and the hybrid Llbextis the Adul
lamites, as the Club people pay who act with
them. They know that a r aical Kelorm bill
would stand no chance, uile it is difficult to
oppose a scheme so niiki -a this. Accordingly,
their bitterness has be"- intensified by the ab
sence ol any Just cause for opposition. Unable
lo deieat the Mr.iietr' upou a square vote, they
seize upon every jiottunity of mangling the
bill, or throwing.1 obstacles in the way of its
progress. Thus, motion was made to require
the insertion ,.ol provisions against bribery in
Ihe bill. This was sustained by the whole Tory
party, not fnru any hatred ot bribery, but be
cause it wouid em rwvrass the bill with an entirely-distinct
t,bji ct. On this ground iheMiuis
tryopposcd the motion, but were beaten by a
,"Jnajority of ten.. The next motion was made by
Uaptaln Hajter, a member from one of the small
boroughs which would be grouped with another
jf the bill should pass. This motion was to the
effect that the whole grouping scheme should
"be abandoned. It was generally supp.ud that
this motion would be carried, in whicli case the
"Ministers would either have resigned, or have
dissolved Parliament and appealed to the people
t a new election. But at the eleventh hour the
dangerous aspect of affairs on the- continent
xoaue some ot the anti-retorm "Liberals" unwill
ing to turn out the Government. Captain Hay
ler, therefore, asked leave to witndra his
motion; but the Ministerial party, sure of
deleating it on a voce, would not consent.
Thereupon, all the opponents of the Ministry
lelt the Uouee, to avoid voting upon the ques
tion, which wat accordmoly unanimously nega
tived. But here the Tories tell iuto a trap.
While they were getting beyond the reach of
the Seigeant-al-Aruis, the Liberals made good
use of the time, passed the bill into committee,
and immediately reported progress, thus getting
rid ot several unpleasant propositions ot amend
ment from the other side, aud putting the b.ll
into a comparatively sale position.
Tne next attack was made in committee, in,
he shape of an amendment, moved by Mr.
"Walpole, an old-lashioned Tory, tlxiug the
county franchise qualification at 20. instead
of 11, as proposed by the Ministry. This was
rejected by 14 majority. On the same night.
Lord Stanley moved to postpone action on the
reaucuonoi tutirancuise quantitation unin tne
redistribution oi seats had oeen settled. Tins
was a complete st prise upon the House; but
was voted down by 'i7 majority.
The result thus far W that the Liberal Minis
try are at any rate assured of power tor the rest

The Impending War in k.Uope,
From the Herald.
War in Europe now appears to be iiMtublt;.
The efforts, or pretended efforts, of diply
lo prevent it were niipped in the bud. tqc
conference of the great powers which Wh
called for this purpose could not do anything,
because tne basis of conditions laid down was
Inadmissible to one of the belligerents at least.
In fact, it must have been evident to the prime
mover, Napoleon, in' proposing the conference,
that it never could accomplish anything under
euch conditions. The movement was a mere
pretext in order to make a show of moderation
tind to cover up the deep political soheme at
the bottom.
In the letter of the Emperor Napoleon to the
French Legislature we have some indications
ot what were the motives and objects of his
Uajesty. If Austria would cede Venetla to
Italy, ll Irii(-sla could be made strontor at the
North tnat is, if be cjuid appropriate lid
sioin wlthit.t resistance Iroin Austria ind if
o'her concesi ns should be made to stre uthen
Prussia anil Italy directly, and Franca indi
rectly, at the expense ol "Austria, tliei inicht
lo no war. In a word, if Austria would give
tip all he hao been contend met for, and touch
mole, and would consent t be ma-lo the second
power in Gnrtnany and a second-rale po er in
llurope. peaco niiht be preserved. That Is tue
si.bftiuice ot Napoleon's proposition. Did Ihe
French Km peror believe this posui Die f No: ho
is too salacious tor that. The proposed con
ference was a sham. Iiooking at all the rlrciioi
sniioci'. wtr cannot re-ist the natural conclusion
that Nipolron hits been an active and secr.'t
egent In fomenting the difficulties ttatt etist in
Burope. He detests the treaties ol 1815, and
consequently lavors a war that may destroy
them and reairance the map of Europe. Whtt
more natural? What more logical?
Austria, confident in her own atronorth, or at
least beinii convit ccd that she can lose no more
by the war than she is required to do in tho in
terests of peace, accepts the alternative of the
sword. Tne whole element arrayed againsr hfr
is revolutionary a desire for change; and she
expects tho conservative sentiment ol Kurope
will support her. How far this conservatism
can be nmde available to give her moral or ma
terial aid has yet to be seen. We do not now
enter into the question whether conservatism or
revolution is best lor the Old World; we simply
refer to the facts of the cas
On the st ie ot Austria we find the Papacy, the
tcmpoial power of which would bo destroyed
by the success of the Italian-Prussian alliance
and the djnastic conservatism of all Kurope,
embracing, probably, Russia, most of the Ger
man isiaU'S, Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, as
well as England. Wo mean on the side of Aus
tria In n moral tense: but in the event ot a
general European war these powers, or most ot
them, would naturally take tbe field with her.
On the side of Italy and Prussia would be tbe
iniphly military power of France, if, Indeed, in
such a general war a is posible Prussia dare
separate herself Irom the declared sentiment of
the niiddle German States.
Tho whole question as presented lust now is
full ot complications, and no one can see the
ultimate result. It is possible the intrigues of
Napoleon may end in his own ruin, and in the
success of the old dynastic rower of Europe, as
the ambition of the first Napoleon ended; but
it Is more likely that tbe democratic element
may seize the opportunity lor a general
revolution, and extort tuose concessions of
liberty which the masses anxious, y de-ire. We
shall watch with Ihe prca'est care events aathe

the people ot this country wijl necessarily leel

Ihe Gci manic Confederation.
From the Daily News.
For some months to come, public attention
will be more prominently directed towards Cen
tral Europe than to any other part of the world.
That district Is exclusively occupied by the
Gcimanic Confederation, the organization of
which was agreed upon in 1816, when the map
ot Europe was remodelled by those Treaties of
Vienna to which the third Napoleon recently
applied the term "detestable.". Under an act of
Constitution, signed at the Austrian capital, on
June 8th, in that year, the various sovereignties
which constitute what is called the German
Empire were united in a Confederation
(VtMmhe Bund) nf ludependent States. The first
article of tho Constitution teanei the ob)uct of
the Confederation to be for "the preservation of
the interna and external security of Germany,
and tbe independence and inviolability of tne
several German States;" and, by tne second
article, equality of rights and privileges are con
ceded to toe members of the Confederation
but the influonce and votes in the D;et or As
6embly are arranged and established according
to the relative importance of the States.
The Confederation originally consisted of
thirty-nine separate sovereignties, but that
number has been reduced to thirty-lour by the
incorpoia'ion of five ot tbe States with others.
Should liolst' in eventually become a portion of
tbe dominions of the King ol Prussia, the num-
ber ol States wl" iinr be reduced to thirtv -three.
7" iviy-iour States include one empire, Ave i
kingdoms, seven Ri'iind-duchiee, one electorate,
feven duchies, one landsravate, eight princi-
valities. and lour tree cities. The tour tree cities
are governed on republican principles; and the
rest 01 tne Mates are constitutional sovereign
ties, each havinir either one or two chambers.
"So called" constitutional might perhaps a
more correct expression, when the manner in
which the King of Prussia andhorae other of
the 1 etty tyrants have dictated to the represen
tatives of the people is taken iuto consideration.
The established religion ot tbe southern States
is Roman Catholic, while that of the middle and
ni.rthein Slates is eithei Lutheran or Relormed
Dutch.
The greater part of the Slates are disconnected
from territory that is not exclusively German.
On the other hand, however, Austrian Germany
does not comprise one-third the dominions ot
tho Kaleer, end only about two-thirds of the
kiugdom ol Prussia are wltlilu 1110 boundaries
ol the Confederation. The Oraud Duchy of
Luxemburg and the Duchy of Limburpr, though
part ol the Confederation, are subject to the
rule of tbe King of Holland, who votes in the
German Diet in respect tuereol. Previous to
the Dano-German war the King of Denmark
held similar Jurisdiction over Holstein and
Lauenlicrg: but Prussia now firmly holds the
latter within her prasp, and the possession ot
the lormer is the subject of dispute. Tbe Duchy
of Schleswlg, though heretofore subject to the
same sovereignty aa Holstein, forus no part ot
the Conlcdcvutiou; it has, however, long been
the desire of the minor German States that it
should be incorporated with Holstein, aud ad
mitted Into tbe German family of nations.
'the congress 01 tue uontedeiation 19 a Diet ot
Plenipotentiaries, which sits In permanence at
rranktort-on-tuc-Maiu. This oody acts in one
of two lorms cither as a General Assembly, or
J'ltnum, in which the Slates have votes accord
ing to their importance, but every State casting
at least one vote; or, aa Uie ordinary Assembly,
in Committee ol the Confederation, or tkiriea, in
which seventeen votes are divided imong the
thirty four States. In the lirger form six of the
principal States have each lour votes, Ave have
three votes each, threo have two votes each,
and the rest one vote each. In the lesser form
one vote is given to each of tbe eleven leading
States, and tbe remaining six votes are parcelled
out among the minor States, in one instance
seven States having a co-partnership in a single
vole. In all cases where changes in the organic
laws of tbe Confederation are to be considered
or made, or when a new member U to be admit
ted into the Diet, or when peace or war is to be
declared, the proceedings must be in Plenum,
or General Assembly; but in other cases the
ordinary Assembly, or Caries, may act either in
a legislative or executive capacity. By the fifth
article ot tho Act of Conl'cderat'on Austria is
invested with the right of presiding in the Diet.
According to the military lists fur 18t4, the
army of the Confederation then comprised
tS98, 688 combatants, and 76,121) non-combatants;
total, 774,708 men; and the artillery embraced
1208 Held pieces and 247 siege gans. Th ranks
are tilled by contingents from the several
States, contributed In proportion to their rela
tive Importance. The entire Federal force is
divided iuto ten corns Farm.es amd a division
of reserve. Of these Austria supplies the first 5
second, and third corps; Prussia the fourth,
tilth, and sixth; Bavaria the seventh, and the
st of the States the remaining three corps and
th division of reserve. There' are five Federal
lortieg which in time of peace are garri
soned ia fi.llnwn v Mb venr.ft. th tmnott and
Bioe t imiKiritnt of the fortresses, by Austrlans
and Prussthm tn equal numbers: Luiemburg
chiefly by Prussians; Landaa by Bavarians;
Eastadt, by troops of Baden and Prussia;
and Tliu by tW of Wurteinburg, Bavaria, and
Austria. . 1 , ,
In presenting au Insight Into the origin and
organization of the Uermanlo Confederation, we
uust not omit to spvuk of the ZoUverein, or
Commercial Union, which, although within the
Conic deration, does not embrace tbe whole of
the German states. ' Previous to the formation
of this Commercial Union, each State had a
separate syrtem of cusiom-houses, tariffs,
monrys, weights and measures, the existonoe of
which waa a serious embarrassment to trade.
To obviate this, Prussia, In 1828, laid the foun
dation of the Zollvcreln, by entering into a com
n eicial union with Hesse Darmstadt, and
twenty-two other States have since Jutticd them.
1 he treaties which bind these States in this com
mercial compact are not ot a permanent nature,
but are open to revocation at state! terms.
War between the two leading memoers of Ibis

othei members will take part can scarcely ter
minate without making considerable chunees in
the Germanic Conlcdera'inn, but whether or no
thete changes will be beneficial to tho German
nation, no person can possibly predict. The
latest European advicea inform us that the Ger
man Iiet. at the instance of Austria, and by a
vote ot nine to mx, has n solved upon mobilizing
the 7fh, 8th, IHh, and 10th Corps of the Fedpr.d
army, such corps con. prising tho w hole of the
conthinrents of the German States excepting
those of Austria and Prussia. Previous to the
action of Ihe Diet Prussia declared that she
should consider the adoption of such a decision
ns a violent dissolution of tbe Confederation,
and alter the vote was taken her representative
pronounced her secession, nnd withdrew irom
the Assembly. The Austrian representative In
sisted upon the indissolubility of the Confedera
tion, to which declaration the Diet voted its
adhesion.
