DUBLIN, ireland, March, lSi5.
To The Ediio; Of the tribune:


Since the calling Of The last Steamer, we have
had an active time IN the political world and mea-
sures Of much importance 10 our national honor and
greatness have been discussed To give you brief
and succnct outline of the principal measures, shall
be my object. The great event was the opening Of
the Imperial Parliament by the Queen in person on
the iih February ia great state. The speech from
the Throne, usual, was short, but oi omlnous I'M
portance, as foreshadowins Tie intended policy Of
the Minister'S especially on the subjects of Taxation
and Justice to Ireland Its tone was unambi-
tou<, peaceful and conclliatory, and its substance
was Of better state OF things tuoush hou, the Realm
than had been under previous admluistration-lhe
revenue had exceeded the expenditure, leaving a
sur Jus Of over three millions Pounds in the Trea-
sIry- increased commercial prosperity had followed
upon The Tarlii-therc WAS visible dlmlnutlon in
agitation in Ireland, and many other atters OF like
character, tending to assure the public mind that
public affairs were properly cared for by The
Queen and her Council. Many measures were sha-
dowtd forth, which held oat hat;eiing promises
of reform and amelioration. Ireland was to have
her opportunities for acadcncal education IN
creased--giving 10 Roman Catholics share OF the
advantages hitherto almost monopozed by the
Pro,csl4nts. The system Of Banking in Ireland,
IN ScotI,nH IN he in o,.tp ndpH
so as TO as,milac as near possible the currency
Of the Realm In the Provinces. The health of our
populous towns is 10 be cared for by the Government
by the establishing Of Parks, &c. for recreation,
aud some measure for the relief OF lrlsh-land occu
piers-both Landlord and Tenants promised TO be
founded on the report OF the Land Commission,
which measure il is hoped will tend TO put an end
eiectually 10 dsraran ouirages, and TO establish
better feeling between the owners and users o! the
soil The speech did not excite much discussion,
the opposition allowing the very pointed rebuke
they received to pass over without ctior; al de-
fence. Lord John Russell was captious rather Than
opposinc-contentng himself with small lnSlnua-
tons rather than combating the direct attack on
his administration, made by Sir Robert in the
speech. in reference 10 the deficiency in the Reve-
nue. He sulkiy reminded the Head Of the Min
istry that many of the proposed measures had orisl
mated with the Wings, and when brought forward
by them had met with the strong opposition OF the
very men who were now prepared TO bring them
into actual operation. Indeed, the unfortunate et-
fort made bv Lord John to raise show OF opposi-
tion bv stirring up the Free Trade. Antl-Slavery,
and Ant-Corn Law advocates, has been generally
regarded proving the want OF any concerted plan
of opposition for the present session. This gives
strong grounds of hope 10 all Ike liberal minded
H., - -. bo,
of getting into working order the machinery which
he has set up much sacrifice OF popularity with
his own party even 10 the loss OF one of the most
active and influential members of his Cabinet on
Commercial matters-l allude 10 Mr.. Gladstone,
who has retired from the Cabinet. as he could no,
conscieniiouSly support the contemplated extension
OF education (not founded on scripture) in Ireland.
This loss will be severely felt by Sir Robert, as Mr.
Gladstone had been his principal supporter an;! ad-
wiser IN all his financial schemes, and winch have
80 fortunately eventuated. Lord DalhousIe sue
cseds Mr. Gladstone as President Of the Board of
Trade The new incumbent Is regarded as Gle
vcr fnancier, but not as thorough commercial
and business man Us his predecessor IN office. Sir
Robert in alluding TO the retirement Of Mr.. Glad
stone, avowed the highest respect and admiration
for the talents OF his late colleague ano lald much
stress on the separation as gage oil MS sincerity N
carrying out what he had rurposed tor the beDetlt OF
Ireland. Sir Robert appears 10 be actuated by
conscientious desire 10 DO all within his power as
the head of the Government, to carry II III lib
cral firm aud energetic manner He seems 10
have shaken OFF the ,rammelS of party, and 10 act
independently for the good of the whole. Nor can
his party help themselves; they dare not vote
against them lest they should be put 70 the lncon-
veutence of dissolution, or possibly of resisna-
ton, in which latter case they would lose every
place OF influence. which they now pesscsS as the
strong party The yirulence Of party spirit has
both in England and Ireland, succumbed 10 the ad-
vancins liberal spirit OF the age and Ss in;oierant
Of either side is certain 10 lose no mat
ter how the change may come


Ca the llih Feb Sir Robert brought, forward his
budget. That Is he boldly exposed hiF policy and
Intended course OF financial and general coIducr,
fearing not To trust In the iategrty OF hspurposesi
that support winch he required 10 carry OH his objects
no matter how inimical some of tlsese purposes
might be 10 the unwaverlng supporters Of his party.
As this is an important national document, will
make short abrdgment ct II for the benefit OF your
readers He was occupied IN the delivery thereof
three hours and quarter!


He commenced with comparison Of the eSt-
mate made by Mr. Coulburn for the pas; year, and
the actual revenue.
