We have the honour to be, with great respect, &c. (Si gne d) GREY. (Signed) GRENVILLE. June 3, 181€2. MY DEAR Lotto=-The answer which you and Lord Grenville have returned to the proposal made by Lord Wellesley seems to throw an oblique imputation upon me ; therefore I entreat your reconsidera tion of your statement as far as it may convey that impeachment of a procedure in which I was involved. You represent the proposition for an arrangement submitted to you as one calculated to found a Cabinet upon a principle of counteraction. When the most material of the public objects which were to be the immediate grounds of that Cabinet's exertion had been previcusly understood between the parties. I own it is difficult for me to comprehend what principle of counteraction could be intro duced. If there be any ambiguity, which toes not strike me, in Lord Wellesley's last paper, surely the constructions ought to be sought in the antecedent communication ; and I think the basis on which that communication had announced the intended Cabinet was to stand perfectly clear.—With regard to the indication of certain individuals, I can assert that it was a measure adopted through the highest spirit of fairness to you and your friends. Mr. Canning's name was mentioned, because Lord Wellesley would have declined office without him ; and it was a frankness to apprise you of it : and Lord Erskine's and mine were stated with a view of show ing, that Lord Wellesley, so far from having any jealousy to maintain a preponderance in the Cabinet, actually left a majority to those who had been accustomed to concur upon most public questions ; and he specified Lord Erskine and myself, that you might see the number submitted for your exclusive nomination was not narrowed by the necessity of advert ence to us. The choice of an additional Member of the Cabinet left to you must prove how undistinguishable we considered our interests and your's, when this was referred to your consideration as a mere matter of convenience, the embarrassment of a numerous Cabinet being well known. The reference to Members of the late Cabinet, or other per sons, was always to be coupled with the established point that they were such as could concur in the principles laid down as the founda tion of the - projected Ministry • and the statement was principally dictated by the wish to show, t hat no system of exclusion could inter fere with the arrangements which the public service might demand. On the selection of those persons, I aver the opinions of you, Lord Grenville and the others whom you might bring forwarA as hiem bers of the Cabinet, were to opera+ e is fully as our own, and this was to be the case also with regard :o subordinate offices. The expres sion that this was left to be proposed . by Lord Wellesley, was intend. ed to prove that his Royal Highness did not, even in the mast indirect manner, suggest any one of those individuals. It is really impossible that the spirit of fairness can have been carried farther than has been the intention in this negotiation. I therefore la ment most deeply that an arrangement so important for the interests of the country should go off upon points which I cannot but think wide of the substance of the ease. (Signed) ACCIDENTS AND OFFENCES. MOIRA. Boweta.—Circumstances having occurred which prevented Bowle from being brought up to Marlborough-street for re-examination, the examination of witnesses has taken place, and the whole have been bound over to prosecute at the ensuing Old Bailey Sessions. Mr. Bur rows is well enough to walk out, and Bowler is better of his lameness, and quite steady in his intellect. Monday, N. Daly. late a publican, at the Lower Watergate Deptford, for forging a seaman's will; and T. Flannagan, and G. Smith, for utter ing forged Bank-notes, were executed in the Old Bailey. The two for mer, being Roman Catholics, were am nded by a Priest of that persua sion; the latter by the Ordinary. They all conducted themselves with suitable decorum. In cutting down one of them, the executioner and his man, over-reached themselves, and, with the body, were precipitated through the platform to the flooring of the drop, but did not receive ma terial injury. MAR Lawton cu-STRUT.—?he Right lion. George Tierney, charged Mr. Jefferys, a book-seller, On Saturday, at this Office, with assaulting him in Pall-Mall. It appeared in evidtnce, that the prosecutor was in company with Lord Spencer, walking along Pall-Mall, when Mr. Jef fery's assailed him in the most affronting language, and upbraided the Noble Lord in company with Mr. Tierney, for walking with him.— The prosecutor, to avoid the defendant, attempted to enter a shop in Pali-Malt, but the defendant got between him and the door, and putting himself in a boxing attitude, prevented it. It appeared that Mr. Jef fery's had conceived that the prosecutor had attempted to injure him in trade ; but Mr. Tierney disclaimed any such attempts, and added, on the contrary, that he had even recommended him. Mr. Tierney ob served, he had not the slightest animosity against the defendant, but he must insist on his finding sureties, to prevent himself being again thus molested. The defendant was held in bail to keep the peace , himself in 2001.. and two sureties in 501. each. bi fe tl •• sI • ' •. 2 THE NATIONAL REGisTER.
