Cher a positive admission of his persuasion, that it was of a nature not to be entertained for a moment by men of integrity and principle.—Low, indeed, must have been his opinion of the sincerity of those who advised suck a measure. That it was the result of advice, common sense, as well as the principles of our Constitution, justify us in concluding. The REGENT is now.the full. Representative of our Soc. reign. lie must net, like him, by responsible ad. Vice, nor will we ever , be seduced, by the indecent example of our contemporaries, who speak the lan. guage of the present Ministry, to canvass any public measure as originating solely and exclusively from the personal opinion and private judgment of our Sovo- reign. While his Royal Molest was yet a 'subject, 1.14 personal opinions.eould be openly avowed and com mented upon without impropriety. They were so, and •it was with heartfelt satisfaction that we often' bore our very huniblo tribute of praise to their libe rality and wisdom. - Isis unbiassed and private judgment was then understood, not only to ap. prove of the general character and conduct of Lord' GRENVILLE and Lord' GAO, but it was more than whispered that . the. rekt4ife of Mr. PEncEva.r.'s overture for formilLan eAtended Ad ministratiew.in 1809, without a.

If Lord GREY and Lord GRENVILLE act on 1 any other principles s with all -our dispesition to ad. t mire their talents, and trust in their integri*v, we Ishall thluli that they have lost all claim on the confi -1 dente of their Sovereign s or their country." FROM TIM. MORNING POST.. " We have repeatedly stated, that whatever at tempts might be made to bring into Administration the leading Members of the Opposition, there was not the remotest probability of a total change, either of men or of principles, taking place in the Counsels of the PLACE RE`:T.Nt ; and the result has proved that we were not mistaken in the opinion which obvious •circumstauces induced us to form upon this subject. The experience of a year, we were early persuaded, would be more than sufficient to convince his Royal Highness that he could not better for ward the true interests of the country, or more effectually gratify the wishei of the . People, than by . retaining in his service, the leading Members of the present Ad ministration; and we accordingly find, that in the invitation which a few days since he caused to be given to Lords GREY and GRENVILLE is form a part of the Executive Council of the State, it was ex pressly stated, that at the same time that he was des sirous of effecting an union of the leading men of all parties, upon liberal and honourable principles, he had every reason to be satisfied with the conduct of those to whom at present the administration of public affairs was principally entrusted. The plain and obvious meaning of this communication being, that though he was desirous of the admission into his Councils of the Noble Lords alluded to, and some of their friends, he had no intention of parting I pith the principal.Membem of the present Cabinet. — d Paper of yesterday contains the following para graph upon the above subject, the principal facts Lstated in which there is no reason whatever to doubt :—" Oa Friday, his Royal Highness the Duke of YORK received a letter from the PRINCE REGENT, upon the subject of the formation of a, ne* Ministry. The trecise. Contents of this communication have not transpired; but, according to report, whilst it ex pressed satisfaction at the conduct of the present 'Mi nisters, it intimated an earnest desire that the Duke would endaavour,to effect an union of the lending men of all Parties upon liberal and honourable prin ciples. Ills Royal Richness, it is said, in compliance with this request, lost no time in communicating the contents of the Prince's letter to Lords Gerevitte and GREY, who yesterday returned an answer un favourable to any coalition with the existing Admi nrstration. It is considered as probable, that Lords Iloteallo and 'Mow may be included in the new ar rangement. 'A grand dinner, connected with the bc siness entrusted to the Duke of YORK, will, we un derstand, be given at his Royal Highness's to-mor row."
