II form Ilfllcultltn In Knglanrt Mr. Clmt.luue und Iilm will. Prom the Timr. The struggle over tin; Keform question in England lias proiliu-eil extraordinary confu sion in the ranks of the liiof political parties. Individual memliers of rarliaiu-ut must find it hard to say positively on which side they really stand. The old-fashioned Tory squire has been metamorphosed by the dexterous hands of .Mr. Disrndi, and we now behold him with a questionable cap of liberty on hid head and red republican colors in his button-hnle. Mr. (Jlailestoiie's breath has been so utterly taken away by the rapidity and completeness of the transformation, that lie has lost his presence of mind, and half ruined his party in consequence. Mr. Disraeli proved too shrewd and expert for him. He has profited by every mistake, by every error of judgment, by every defect of temper which the leader of the Opposition was betrayed into. Never has the present Chan cellor of the Exchequer displayed greater ver satilityor alertness never has he madesogreat an impression upon the House of Commons by Lis speeches, always unrivalled in felicity of expression and vigor of thought, but this year distinguished by an intensity of power which his enemies seldom gave him credit for. As we heard by the mail the other day, he has , won in anoiuer stage 01 me great contest. A majority of twenty-one in his favor, in a crowded house, and in spite of all the ell'orts of his practised adversary, is a victory of which any leader of a party might well bo proud. It ia impossible not to perceive, even at this distance from the scene of contention, that the result of the Reform debates thus far has been moulded, in no small degree, by the personal character and qualities of these two eminent men Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Disraeli. Ac cording as they have evinced a spirit of states manship and wise forbearance, or been un mindful of their responsibilities, they have gained or lost influence with their foilowers. lJut it ha9 happened that the larger propor tion of mistakes have been committed by Mr. Gladstone, and his wary opponent has seized upon every one in an instant, and turned it to good account. Able as Mr. Gladstone is, there are many grave, almost fatal defects in his organization, and not the least of them are liis inability to discern what is the most mate rial point in the controversy, and consequently the one best worth lighting for, his tendency to overwhelm every subject with a torrent of words, and his utter want of command over Lis temper. He will take up a wrong issue, and stake the fortunes of his party upon it. He did so in the recent instance of the foolish "instruc tion" to Mr. Coleridge, and he underwent the mortification of seeing it withdrawn amid the jeers of the whole House. His tongue runs away with hiin whenever he speaks ou a great question. He elaborates and re elaborates till the minds of his hearers wander away from him, although their ears are still pleased by his eloquence. They listen, but he ceases to convince. A slight incident a smile, for instanco, on the face of Disraeli opposite, or a stray ironical cheer sets him atlame with anger. He becomes insolent and arrogant towards the other .side, and these are faults which the House of Commons is ewift to resent. It is not so long ago that Mr. Gladstone bitterly olfeuded his own party by the contemptuous tone and haughty man lier which he assumed when answering questions as leader of the House. This ses sion he began with better promise. He had evidently set a guard upon his unruly mem ler. He was studiously, sometimes almost painfully, courteous and deferential to all. lie listened to everybody's opinion, and honey dropped from his mouth whenever he ad dressed the Philistines. Sweet and pleasant were his words, even when he attuned them for his successor. Everybody began to think that the House had, indeed, been well swept and garnished. J Jut before the Liberals had had time to render thanks for this mercy, their eccentric leader turned round upon them and began to rend them, and it was too evident that many other spirits had entered in worse than the first. He abused the Minis try, and dictated to them what they should do in terms which Mr. Disraeli afterwards very happily mimicked. One night he pledged his party to a course upon which he had not consulted them, and which they were not prepared to follow. He led them into the mire in all directions. At last he conducted them to sure defeat, and, if the telegraph is to be trusted, he has resigned the leadershig of the party. 15ut this we greatly doubt. Things have not yet arrived at such a pass as to require that step. The relation in which Mr. Disraeli stands towards the Reform question is too large a subject to enter upon here, but it is perfectly evident that he was placed in circumstances of very great embarrassment, and that ho is emerging from them with skill and credit. He has had to force his party along a road they were indisposed to travel. The con servatives, as a body, were opposed to any large measures of reform. Many of them would have preferred to remain out (if ollice until the question was settled. But they came into power, and Mr. Disraeli, little by little, brought them to the measure which is now before the English Commons. There is no reason to suppose that he does not honestly believe it to be a sound and satisfactory solu tion of the problem, for he has too much tact to trifle with the opinion of England, and to give the people a quack mixture, the ineflicacy of which would be discovered as soon as it had passed from his hands. There would be another agitation, and in that Mr. Disraeli and his party must hopelessly go down. On the other hand, if he succeeds in devising a good and suitable measure, he will, as Mr. JJright told him, thoroughly establish his fame. All the considerations naturally lead him to try his utmost to accomplish the task successfully. What, tln, is it that he is attempting, and what are the prospects before himf In seeVmg to .irrive at conelusions upon these points, we are met by many difficulties. The Ministerial bill is being discussed ou theo retical grounds. We do not believe that any party understands precisely what will be the lull effect of its working. The English press is very much divided upon its merits. As our reaueru nave oeen Informed, it proposes to give the suflrage to every householder who pays rates himself not through a landlord. The tenant whose landlord pays the rates will not get a vote; but it is contended, and we believe justly contended, that, by an arrange ment with the landlord, compound house holders may easily transfer to themselves the obligation of rates, and thus be admitted to the franchise. The scheme may not be so liberal as it looks; we require special information and statistics Wore we can form an accurate judgment upon that point; but it Beema to aflord the materials out of JTgE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, which a good bill may be shaped. We re gard it as immensely more liberal than Mr. Gladstone's plan, which is to confine reform to a live pound suffrage. Why five pounds f Why not four pounds or three pounds? What principle is there iu affixing an arbitrary line, especially after the experience of former fail ures of tleatne kind? One proof that Mr. Gladstone's policy is really a Tory one in spirit is that pointed out by Mr. Roebuck, namely, the advocacy it receives from Lord Cnmborno, a seceding member of the Derby Ministry, lie deserted his colleagues because lie thoupM they were too radical, ami he takes shelter behind the conservative, back of the "indicn!" Air. uiaostoiio. In all probability the bill will yet be con siderably altered and amended before it be comes l.sw. It has already consumed the greater part of the session. The speeches have been very long, and the practical result very small. Mr. Gladstone has come out of the encounter seriously damaged, and with tbe coniidence of his party in him much shaken. There are some people in the world who explod:-, as it were, in numerous places at all sorts of unexpected and inappropriate moments. When everything seems to be going on well, they go oil' suddenly with great violence, throwing their friends into the air, disordering their own plans, frustrating their own wishes, and planting in onlookers the seeds of per petual distrust. Mr. Gladstone appears to be a man of that kind, and the feeling of inse curity which the discovery of the fact inspires is likely to mar the usefulness of his public life. I.tixemboiire Its Importance to Franco The I'ofcltiou of Prussia. From the Herald. Luxembourg was exacted as one of the guar antees for the peace of Europe when the powers Mere in a temper to fancy that peace could never be threatened by anybody but the great disturber, l'rance. This alone indicates the importance of the little scrap of territory to the Government which now demands posses sion of it. Indeed, while Luxembourg is in the hands of her enemies, France is, to a cer tain extent, under bonds to be civil, and it i? her desire to be free from such restraint that moves the present agitation. It is not a ques tion of dominion; for there are less than a thousand square miles, and less than two hundred thousand inhabitants. It is a ques tion of strategy, and, in that sense, of safety. It is a question of a thorn in the side that keeps one restless and wakeful; because any chance may stir it and make it a cause of un endurable evil. Between Alsace and the sea, following down the Rhine, there are three zones of country of primary importance in view of any military operation against France. They open ou the Rhine at one end and into France at the other. They are formed by the relation that the Menso and Moselle bear to the Rhine. The first lies between the Upper Rhine and the Moselle, opening on the Rhine below Coblentz; the second letween the Moselle and the Meuse, and the third between the Meuse and the German Ocean. In the latter zone lie such famous points as Oudenarde, Namur, Ramilies, Ni velles, .Temeppe, and Waterloo. It is because the Netherlands lie so much in this division that they became in so many wars against France the "cockpit of Eurcjpe." But since the days when the wars of the Spanish succes sion, the republic, and the empire were fought wvi oimuni ovn uiuo ui uiuii uisLrict, me in troduction of railroads has made some modifi cation of strategy. We have an illustration of it here. Luxembourg lies in the middle zone at the upper extremity of that zone where the waters, of the Meuse and Mo selle are nearest together as they rise in Ardennes. It is not at all in the route of an army marching to France by the lower Rhine, yet by its rail communications it can com mnnd any point on almost any line ' operation in that direction. It can by the same means command all important points in the upper zone, and the march of a foreign army by the middle zone would not be feasible if Luxembourg and a well-organized French force were in the hands of an active and reso lute commander. But in the hands of the Prussians this im portant scrap of territory is a foreign wedge forced in at the vulnerable point of French defense. This point in hostile hands, and France lies almost naked to her foes. March ing from the Prussian frontier by the middle zone, they have an easy line to the Marue, and the direct route to Paris, with no good defen sive line between. It is obvious, therefore, that France would never willingly have seen a garrison of six thousand Prussians placed in that vital fortress. Such a possession is to her a constant reminder of the humiliation that followed the dreadful days of Leipsio and Waterloo. Prostrate before Europe, she had to accept the law, not give it, and assent that others should have the material guarantee of a way to her heart. Prussia claims that she holds the fortress by treaty right, mean ing the treaty right given at Vienna that treaty right by which there existed a German Confederation, and which treaty right she Emashed to atoms last summer. But Prussia, though she lias obliterated so much of the system then established, wishes to preserve the advantages it gave her. She can hardly expect that others should consent for her to preserve what she pleases of a system de stroyed by her, when that preservation must bo at their expense. It has not escaped the keen eye ruling in France that the destruction of the treaties of 1815 has left Luxembourg out of all the realms, and made it accessible once more to its natural owner; and it is only natural that Napoleon, in view of so much European reconstruction, should demand and require the reconstruction for France of a de fensible frontier. France, having once mooted this point, very naturally hesitates to recede. It is a topic too vitally important ever to have been started until the determination had been reached to carry it to a settlement by diplomacy, if pos sible, or war, if absolutely necessary. That was the French purpose. But it appears by a cable despatch that the Emperor Napo leon has signified his willingness to take part in negotiations now in progress, and which are likely to eventuate in the assemblage in Lon don, some time in the month of May, of a general conference of all the great powers of Europe, having for its object the final settle ment of the Luxembourg question. Another despatch informs us that the Prussian Govern ment has also signified its acceptance of the proposition of the Queen of England for the assemoung 01 such conterence, ana inai King William is not averse to treating the question on the basis of the neutralization of the Grand Duchy. In the meantime it has been agreed that the fortress in dispute shall be dismantled. Our Great National Heprotch-The la Ulan War. From Uif Herald. The statement recently Dublished bv Mr. Bogy, late Commissioner of Indian Affairs, substantiates the view which we have all along taken of our difficulties with the Indian tribes and of the management of our Indian affairs generally. According to his showing the impending war is due, not to the unrea sonable demands of the chiefs, nor yet to the rapacity of the Government agents or trader, upon whose shoulders the blame has been no freely laid, but to mismanagement in Wash ington. With the exception of a band of Sioux, headed by a chief named Red Cloud, there are really none of the tribes hostilely disposed towards us. Even this chief, irri tated as he is by bad treatment, could easily have been kept quiet if a disposition had been shown to conciliate them. lie is represented to be mauly and honest, and he has taken to arms simply because, after repeated remonstrances with the agents of the Government, he has been suffered to acquire the conviction that nothing remains for him and his followers but the alternative of fighting or starving. He now serves as the lender around whom all the malcontent spirits of the other tribes rally. Mr. Bogy thinks it would be easy to satisfy the requirements of this chief and his tribe, and that it would bo a much more humane and economical policy for the Government to spend a few hundred thou sand dollars in providing them with reserva tions and cattle for stock-raising than to allow itself to be involved iu a general Indian war, which, if once started will, extend from the Missouri river to the foot of the Rocky Moun tains, and from the mouth of the Yellowstone to and including Arizona and New Mexico, costing, as he believes, many millions of dol lars, thousands of lives, and the entire sus pending ami perhaps destruction of the rail roads now being built upon the Plains. The expedition sent out under General Han cock is, Mr. Bogy thinks, a great mistake. All that was wanted was the sending of a small number of men to the Yellowstone to chastise the chief Red Cloud and his adhe rents. The effect of the appearance of an army of the magnitude of that under Gene ral Hancock's orders will be to alarm all the well-disposed tribes and render a general war inevitable. These views, he says, he tried months ago to impress upon the Government; but no attention was paid to them. This he attributes to the inihieiice of the Indian Bu reau at Washington, where, he contends, have originated the numerous frauds that have per meated our Indian affairs, and that have cre ated all our present difficulties. The head ollice there, he asserts, is surrounded by a set of heartless cormorants who care but little for the consequences, provided tbeirrnnncitvis satisfied. l!It2Jl' In all this there is but too mucii uutn, ami it is a melancholy reflection that, repeatedly as it has been urged, it has failed In producing any impression. If wo wage a war of general extermination against the tribes and we do not see what else is the result from Hancock's expedition the world will, in view of these statements, hold us responsible for blood un necessarily shed, while the addition to our public debt of the millions of dollars which the war will cost will render such of us as are insensible to the moral guilt ultimately con vinced of its impolicy. It is not as yet too late to retrace the steps that have conducted us into such a criminal and dangerous error. In the name of humanity and justice, let there be no delay in backing out of it.
