THE Session of 1876 is at an end , having been protracted several days beyond its ordinary limit . Our Legislators are , no donbt , as pleased as a parcel of schoolboys on finding themselves released from their duties at Westminster , especially as it is long since the two Houses ,
but chiefly the Commons , have had so serious an amount of heavy work thrown upon them during the latter sittings . However , " all's well that ends well . " Noble lords and honourable members are now at liberty to go whither they please—footing it over the moors in pursuit of grouse or
deer-stalking , yachting in the Mediterranean or other waters , or merely vegetating , in an amiable kind of way , at some fashionable watering-place , at home or abroad , as it consorts with their several humours . And they have fairly earned their holiday , too . At the opening of
Parliament , in February , Ministers were wisely reticent on the measures they had in prospect . One or two were mentioned as certain to occupy the time of our Legislature ; and these are now law . A great variety of other bills ,
varying , of course , in importance , were introduced , and certain of these have passed triumphantly the several stages of discussion in both Houses , and received the Eoyal assent : but a Member of Parliament is one of whom a
certain amount of talk is expected ; and there are over six hundred and fifty of them . No wonder that , at the Mansion House the other day , the Marquis of Salisbury remarked , in a genial after-dinner speech ; that the House of Commons was becoming notorious for its power of
discussion , while the Hereditaiy Chamber was acquiring fame for its business-like proceedings . Much or little in the way of debate , however , in this or that House , the session just closed has not been unfruitful of important measures . Certain we enumerated last week have become law , while
others , though left over for another year , have had the advantage of being thoroughly well debated , so that action on them in a future session may readily be taken . As regards formal changes in the composition of the two Houses , there are not many that need be noted . Lord Northbrook
has resumed his place in the Lords , being succeeded in the Viceroyship of India by Lord Lytton . The Earl of Malmesbury has resigned the office of Privy Seal ; while , in the Commons , the death of Mr . "W . Romaine Callender , M . P . for Liverpool , and the retirement from the Office of
Works of Lord Henry Lennox , are among the most noteworthy occurrences . One change we have hardly yet had time to realize . The Premier , Mr . Benjamin Disraeli , who has had a seat in the Commons for some forty years , haa been raised to tho peerage , by the style and title of the
Earl of Beaconsfield , and has further accepted the seals of office as Lord Privy Seal . Assuredly this is owing to the increasing age of the right honourable gentleman and the severe strain upon his powers involved in tho leadership of the Commons : but the world will be some time in
recognising , in the Earl of Beaconsfield , plain Mr . Disraeli , the powerful debater and the leader , in opposition or in power , since 1848 , of the great Conservative party . No doubt he will adorn the new sphere to which , by tho gracious act of Her Majesty , he has been moved , but tho
House of Commons will hardly know itself without him . While we congratulate the Peers on this latest brilliant accession to their strength , we cannot let slip this opportunity of sympathizing with the Commons' House on its undoubted loss .
