The - offices ;" taking feebleness•of his Government excited the ridicule 1 "blunders" ca of politicians pledged to its support, and its fall services which I was regar d e d as a fortunate, event for the country. _ 'ountry." On , With his usual chivalry and patric t 'sib, Lord - Derby vas again had r at once came to the rescue, and formed an Admiois ll all bebrcargh tration. It is true that the noble earl could not then to be done ?' rely upon commanding a ,majority in the lower nest to the' branch of the Legislature, but his followers consti- N' carry the tuted by far the largest party, and the majority was for the - disorganised and split into jarrine•sections. Conoe to, the . quently, there was no other .statesman to whom. - this the task'could be entrusted, and had Lord Derliy. 'hat declined ; power must once more have - fallen Into the - ha bands *of the Minister who had actualPY brokeie down twice, - and had' had several narrow t'eattapee ' • (hiring the course cf the previous 12)months. And what: were the results of the change ? Themoment - Lord Derby'grasped the reins the healthy functions of government . was restored. There was nothing like sufferance in Ys rnle,-eandeinithe ocagasteat. Itlaiout ten Months the ConservatiViatiailialsat eatomplished more real good - than their. predecessors • had done in five years. The results of only four months of Conservative rule are thus summed up by an impartial chronicler :—" By the end of June all the 'measures which the Government had pro peised to :pass during the present Parliament had been disposed of. In this number were included several bills of great practical utility and idaportance. Short as the session was, and unbreken at its commencement by inter ruptions, consequent on ministerial changes, it proved unusually prolific in legislative results. This circumstance having reflected credit on the new - Government, which, however inferior in official experience to the Cabinet it displaced, unquestion ably proved itself much superior in the art of getting through business. It was alleged, on the other hand, by Lord Derby's opponents, that his Administration was not justly entitled to much Credit in this respect, seeing that they had found the measures of which they boasted prepared to their hands by their predecessors in office To this assertion it was an obvious rejoinder that, although the Whig party might know how to project measures, their recent official career proved that they had Very little ability to carry them. ' " The principal laws of public importance added to the statute-book between the accession of L zcl. Derby to office and the dissolution of Parliament were—the Militia Act, the New Zealand Constitu tion Act, several measures of reform in the courts of law and equity, including an act to diminish the technicalities of special pleading, and to amend the procedure in the common law courts ; an act to remedy some of the long-standing grievances in the PBurt of Chancery by abolishing the office of the Masters, and other changes ; and an act to extend the jurisdiction of the county courts. In addition to these there were several acts for important Sanitary objects—for improving the supply. of water to the metropolis, and for restricting intramural interments therein." If such were the result o f on ly f our months of a ;Government upon sufferance, it would be a blessing ;for England always to be ruled iu this manner, and as soree•of our contemporaries have a passion for quotations, we venture to recommend the above to their particular consideration. The Conservatives, many of them being without official experience, accomplished greater things than the Whigs with all their training and pretended dexterity. The former set earnestly to work, success attended their exertions, the various interests of the country prospered, our relations with foreign powers were of the most friendly character, and legislation, in all its various branches, was at once dignified aud. honest. To rescue the state from similar perils, and tare store prosperity at home and harmony abroad, the Conseivatives pace m ore acce d e . to .power. noir mission is, as 'we have before stated, to govern. In every department the healthy functions of good. government have now been for some time sus pended. Not only are they more powerful, as re gards following anjoi ability than they were in 1852, but their chiefs podbess greater experience ; whilst the remembrance of their previous short but judi cious rule renders them popular amongst all classes. The fallacy that the Conservatives are obstructive& cannot any longer delude. People know from their former achievements what is to be expected from their firm and vigorous administration of affaira. Hence Lord Derby assumes the direction under the most favourable au s pi ces . Th e ranks of his followers have received considerable accessions of strength since his last Premiership ; and never did better feeling or greater harmony prevail amongst them. New friends appear from every side, and even oppo nents profess sympathy and promise suppOrt. In fact, the conviction gains ground hourly that Lord Derby is master of the situation. The noble earl will this evening, in his place in Parliament, explain the manner in which his Administration has been formed, as well as the principles upon which it will be conducted, and these will be found conducive to the advancement and prosperity of England, to the peace and security of Europe, and to the mainte nance of Christianity and the spread of civilisation throughout the world. • . „ [PM/ 41). STAMPED 5D.] . , discovered,. for the first time, that it was as likely Lord Palmerston had acted wrong as right, in not answering Count Walewski's despatch. On the Monday thereafter the Times, having good reason to believe that Lord Derby would form a Ministry, had the audacity to, threaten him with that very Reform Bill, which had been doing ifs best to pooh pooh for months before. - "Then domes the great question of Parliamentary Reform. The House of Commons and the whole party are committed to the measure.. Will Lord Derby declare against it, or take it up and make it his own ?" On the Tues day, the Times rated Lord Palmerston for his ap pointment of Lord Clanricarde, and complained of " the spectacle of the aristocracy 'fastening With a kind - of rapacity on -minor offices ;" taking care, however, to. add that these "blunders" cannot, "be weighed against-the great services which Lord Palmerston has rendered his country." On the Wednesday the Reform epiestion was again had re course to.. "So before long we shall all be,brought round to the old question, what is- to be done ?' and the statesmen . who answer this most to the ' satisfaction of the public will be likely to' carry the day. There may be no urgent demand for the India Bill,, and China may, be. reeignel to. the Plenipotentiaries out there ;` Vtite - ns"fOr - this Reform- Bill, there seems no: escaping. it. What will Lord Derby do 1" On the - Thursday :the Tinier had actually, got the length of describ ing 'Count -Waleveski's despatch as " outrage ously insolent," and twitting Earl Grey. •with his conservative notions. ,The Times had, now,got the length of glorying in its' " low Radical Vietvs," and declaring that, gg Ifewe wish to establish our 4preseutatioil 34,744[4...ba5i5map4 7 have . Isom definite principle to appeal to, we'must tectoghise the extension of the franchise to all - who can exer cise it with safety, and the removal of the scandal ous disproportion between the constituencies." 'On the Friday the Times proved with great ability that the conspirators against the life of the French Emperor who have just received sentence have scarcely resided in England at all, and condes cended to notice, for the first time, the illegality of the capture and detention of the Cagliari. And on the Saturday the Times raised its indignant voice against those aristocratical cabals to check, if not to displace Sir Colin Campbell, at which it had con nived, so long as the Palmerston-Clarendon party remained in office. This is pretty well for the organ of the ex-Minis try during the first week of their relegation to the Opposition benches. Already has it recanted all it has been preaching for months back. Already has it shown practically how sincere was its conviction that "if Lord Palmerston, Sir G. Grey, and the Minister's generally, found themselves on the other side, they would do the duti es of th a t p os iti on as well they are now doing their own ; ' and how ready it is to " change sides the day after," and " improve on the arguments of its yesterday's op ponents." Lord Darby and his colleagues will commit a fatal mistake if they imagine that the arguments anddeclamations of the Times on these topics can be answered satisfactorily by a tit quoque But the Palmerston-Clarendon patty are equally mistaken if they imagine that the country will 'be contented to see them restored to office merely be cause they for the moment talk loudly against that which they have been doing for years, and will do again if replaced on the Treasury benches. Through their organ, the Times, they have given the people to understand that, however they may talk when in Opposition, they are unalterably of opinion that Governments are obliged to take only one side"—that is the side they have taken during their whole tenure of office. Now, the people want men who will not only declaim against oligarchical rapacity and cowardly sacrifices of the national honour, and in favour of Parliamentary Reform, when in Opposition, but who will act when in pos session of power as they'spoke before they obtained it. They will not, therefore, be satisfied with such a make-believe Opposition as Lord Palmerston will assuredly be the head of. If the new Mioisters will not act in conformity to the opinions and sentiments of the people, the people are determined to seek for men who will. They know that Lord Palmerston and his colleagues will not, and they will therefore stand aloof from any opposition of the ex-Preanier and his colleagues. Of this the independent mem bers of the louse of Commons may rest assured. They may injure themselves by becoming the followers of Lord Palmerston or Lord Clarendon, , ut they capnot help xttgirefthem. - (From the Morning Herald.) In a remarkably short apace of time has Lord Derby succeeded in forming a strong Administra tion, and this success, a n d t h e sat i s f ac t ory manner in hich it has been accomplished, are as gall and wormwood to his most determined opponents. From the hour that the noble earl was summoned , by our gracious Sovereign till his task was finished, absurd rumours have been in circulation and numerous false reports invented. At the first mention of a Conservative Administration the great lights of the political world affected in credulity, and declared the thing impossible. It was evident, according to their notions, that Lord Derby had not the slightest chance of com pleting his arrangements. Sir Frederic Thesiger would not be a party to such proceeding, and accordingly the Conservative leader must look elsewhere for a Chancellor. Yet this difficulty did not prove so formidable as these detractors imagined, and when Sir Frederic's acceptance of the high office was announced their fury knew no bounds. Foiled, but not vanished, they speedily found another obstacle to success. Lord Stanley, it was clear, could have nothing what ever to do with the venture. Although a dis tinguished ornament of the Conservative party, the member for King's Lynn was, according to the representations of these interested individuals, to secede the moment it came into power. People perceived the absurdity of the story, yet many were deluded until the anjtouncernent of Lord Stanley's as Colonial Minister at once demolished this false report. Sir John Pakington was the next personage to prove refractory. Nothing, it was stated, could induce this legislator, who held office with credit unde r L or d Dery in 1852, to re peat the dangerous experiment. This bubble soon burst, and Sir E. L. Bulwer Lytton was then repre sented as the cruse of embarrassment. The non appearance of this distinguished man's name in the list of the new Ministry seemed to give colour to the assertion. From our adversaries even this source of consolation has been, however, removed. Sir E. L. Bulwer Lytton declined a seat in the Cabinet solely because he did not wish, at this juncture, to put the county which he represents to the excitement and inconveniences of a contest. The refusal of certain members of the Peelite party, and of Earl Grey to undertake the responsibilities of office, flattered the selfish misgivings of Lr,rd Derby's opponents, but they altogether lost sight of the fact that these distinguished members of the Senate replied to the Conservative leader's ad vances in the most friendly manner, and with ex pressions of good-will and approval. • With extraordinary facility the Government has been formed, and thus the gloomy forebodings of disappointed critics and jealous opponents have not been fulfilled. Their prophecies were based upon their hopes ; they predicted as inevitable that which they fondly desired would come to pass. It is one of the inconveniences of our representative and free system that the public should be condemned to live, more or less, in an atmosphere of delusions ; and one fallacy is no sooner destroyed than another . arises in its place. Hence idl e r e port found a fresh chan nel, and rumour appeared in a different form. The list of Lord Derby's Administration is completed. ;and It is no longer a speculation, but amongst its members may be found of the ablest and most expeliencidle for opponents age. It would, therefore, be edttha s t a t e smen of the ofso.ue enames phrase, of its existence Lt o h t a h t in is g , daunted, with this great and detractors to continueth utosedaehnayekthueeypedossibility a great fact. zi The probable ter m shoals and quicksands th a t offa cittsthdeuyrat a beset its path, g ive life and animation to thei r uu, prepare n d t grapple, he desponding Here, according to their repre sentations, rock which the new Ministers can notre a danger that must pro ve d e structive. Arguments of this kind are hea r d i n i a s s : a u Id 9t.he many quarters, but little heed is fortunately paid to them,for threatened men often live lon g , and determined to fulfil their duties faith fully, and without fear of opposition, may look to the people for support. Moreovor, the Ministerial experiments of the last few years, all of which have emanated from the 'Whig, Liberal, and Radical sections of the Legislature, have not tended to the advancement of the credit of our rulers, or to give the pulalic a favourable idea of their interference. From a portion of the opposition press, and from many political opponents, both in and out of Par liament, Lord Derby and his colleagues meet not only with fair treatment, but even with promises of an independent support. Impartial men feel that in this emergency the new Ministers are en titled to the gratitude, as well as to the confidence of the community ; for had they refused to grasp the helm the vessel of the state must have drifted intv grehter perils than these by which eke is r l~trr 1 SIEGE OF LIICKNOW.

GREAT WESTERN AND BRENTFORD. - The half-yearly mee ti ng was held on F r id ay, a t th e offices of the-company, inGreat George-street; Viscount Vi Th llie e r r s e i p n o t r h t, e w ch b a ic ir h . vi , asceat i by Mr. C. Fay; jun., the. secretary, stated that since the lest half-yearly .meeting 'considerable progress had been made in the principal works, and:that arrangements were heing made 'for laying the permanent way, and providing such shedallit other,acconc modation- at the dock as would be: requisite to meet the. traffic for which it was necessary to provide. . A spacial meeting had been held for the purpose of raising addi tional capital, in Pnrsuan e Of the (tinat Western and Brent ford Railway Amendment Act, 1857, at evbich ,a resolu tion in favour of that proceeding had Wen unanimously adopted ; authority was also - given to.thedirectors to raise 30,0001. on mortgag e or bond; but the commercial em barrassments which ensued had cetnpletely stopped ell in vestments in undertakings of .this nature; and rendered it difficult for companies to plaie =debenture bonds. The sitiafactory change which had now taken place in the money market, coupled with the Inhereet soundness of the undertaking, an d i ts approach Lewards:eoripletion, led to the belief th a t th ere would be little difficulty in raising the remainder - of - the capital authorised by th e act of 1857, and in 9b:aining loam; at a moderate rate of interest. Lord VlLLrens, i n moving the`adoption of the report, congratulated the_ s h ar eh o l ders ; that their railway kid docks had made as great progress, considering all the difficulties which had occurred in the last six menthe, as could have been anticipated. ')IV teas not to .be ex-; petted that they alone should have teen exempted from the pressure which had- Masted elsewhere, and: he_trusted that they, would., think that the .directors had exercised a wise discretion in not unduly push ing on the works when the collie - 000e would have been that they would have bad to pay an enormous interest , for the money required to complete the Undertaking. (Hear.) The whole Of the docks. were noer i fpicihed, the- bridges, were all constructed. the erabantlisents - were PerfictlY ready for the rails and the machinery, and direction, had been issued for carrying on the works without any further delay. Under these Circumstances he believed that he was justified in stating that before another half-year elapsed the railway would be in full and efficient operation. (Hear.) Mr. DARVILL, in seconding the motion, after expressing his eonfidence in the board of direction and his satisfaction that no jobbery or speculation had ever taken place in con nection with the company, proceeded to remark upon the prospective advantages to be derived from the undertaking itself, which induced him to believe that it would be one of the most valuable portions of railway property in the kingdom. It would be the terminal line for at least 1,000 miles of a system extending from Eouth Wales and South Devon and Liverpool to Landon. It was not like the ma jority of railways, which had to look out for traffic that might, or might not, come to them, for here was traffics actually existing which must be carried on the line as soon as it should be completed. Again, it could not fail to be a most valuable adjunct to the Great Western Railway. It would clear that line of the heavy traffic between Southall and Paddington, and it would carry it from Southall to Blackwell at from 45. to ss. a ton, when it must now cost the company from 7s. 6d. to 10s. a ton to convey it from Paddington to Blackwell ; and it would be most useful to the Great Western, by relieving it of the enormous amount of smokeless coal from the Mer thyr. district, which that line Would be enabled to that line into o n g d r t e o c t t c h o e m m m u e n t c o a p t o i l o i ; w i a t o b d hbey porth r in o g f ing London in a cheap and easy manner, it would afford great facilities for the conveyance of goods from Liverpool, Manchester, and the manufacturing districts generally by that route. At present there were nearly 200,000 tons of goods taken an nually to Bull's Bridge by the Great Western, and trans mitted thence to the Thames at Brentford. This was a tedious and expensive process, and he presumed when this line should be completed that the whole of that_traffic would come upon it; and that alone ought to pay a fair and reasonable dividend. When in addition to this, they looked at the increased coal, iron, and stone traffic from South Wales and commercial traffic from the north and north-west, they must be satisfied that their undertaking would prove a most remunerative one. (Cheers.) In con clusion, Mr. Darvill expressed his approbation of the course taken by the directors in not borrowing money at a high rate of interest, which would have been an incubus upon the concern for years, and urged upon them that they should now proceed with the works as rapidly as pos sible, so as to open the line, if practicable, within a couple of months. After a. few words from Mr. Trumper, which elicited the reply from the chairman that a satisfactory arrangement had been made with tha Great Western Company for the conveyance of their traffic over the Brentford line, the re port was unanimously adopted. Mr. Pater Davey and Mr. H. Day were unanimously re eltcted directors ; Mr. G.

His qualifications for • the 'past of a Cabinet Minister _werenet pf the highest order, nor was there any connection between'him and military matters, except that he passed a feveyears in the army at an early period- of his life. Mr. Lebouchere is a very wealthy and worthy gentleman, of literary and elegant tastes, but without application, And hardly Baited to a post in which application is so mu c h required as the government of 40 dependencies scattered over the globe. Mr. Baines is a good working m an , an d did very well at the Poor Law Board, but why he should have been•illeed in the Cabinet no one has ever been able to see. 'Of Mr. Vernon Smith it is sufficient to say that he ad mitted his place to be beyond his strength' by taking no part in the Indian debate, while his management of the inte riorduties of his office is receiving strange elucidation before Me. Butt's committee. Mr. Smith, however,his been &steady Whigall his life, and is connected with steady Whig fami lies. He has risen high, and there is no saying that he will not rise higher should- the system continue. It is the good fortune of these politicians that they can only be moved by being pushed forw a rd. Wh en their heavy wheels are in the rut oa each - side, not the waggoner :nor Hercules to boot could get them out of the way for the passage of lighter traffic. It is necessary- to force them onward in the old track till they came to some high and dry ground where they can be shunted off. • The House of Commeni can never get 'rid o f th e obstruetion uhtil It has fairly pushed them up into "another place." Of Lord Clauricarde, the latest addition to the Palmerston •Cabinet, *ye have long • since said enough. He _has had the rare fortune of being able, almost unassisted, to destroy by his mere presence a Ministry fbrtified by repeated victories, and supported by the largest majority known since the Reform Bill. Such politicians as those we have named certainly add no thing to the strength of a Government, and if ever Lord Palmerston return to power it must be - at the sacrifice of all these encumbrances. That he was able to work with them so well; and to govern the country so effi ciently, is a proof of his ability ; but it is also a proof of the excellence of our Parliamentary machine, and the 'thoroughness with which questions are, prepared for legis : Wien by die tress kid by fiblid &iononion: 'Ldid - Pa7t= made conquering the Russians, Mr. Vernon Smith pre serving the empire of India, are witnesses to the strength of the British Constitution. We certainly seem able to have measures without men. But still the thing has been carried too far, the strain has been too great, and the ma chine has at last broken down. - If the next Liberal Pre mier will boldly overthrow the system it will be all the better for the country and himself. Pure Whig though he be, let him wash off his blue and yellow streak of caste, tear asunder the veil of separation, and take half-a-dozen of the most shrewd and active Liberals he can find into his Cabinet. By so doing he will fled the direction of affairs more easy for himself and more advantageous to his pasty, his country, and the empire at large. SAVE ME FROM MY FRIENDS ! (From the Times.) A change of Administration in the present day is looked upon with a strange mixture of vexation and not unpins ing curiosity. Political feeling is not so strong but that a man may consider the mat* philosophically, and inquire • into the good the cordmunWis like ky to receive eves. from , the accession to power of a n a n tisp a O u l ar party. Just at' ' the beginning of a promising .:session itis, indeed, rather provoking to have the order of things disturbed, and to know that the measures on which the country bad set its heart—to say nothing of the necessary annual business— will be neglected, delayed, or miserably huddled through. On the other hand, there is the excitement of seeing new men in responsible places, and forming conjectures as to how far they will adopt their opponents' measures and frame plausible excuses for doing so. In the present case those who look on the whole affair as an amusing spec tacle will find more than the usual interest in watchieg the change, for it is about as complete as any in our poli tical history. A Cabinet of old official stagers is succeeded by a Cabinet of semi-novices. The names which we have been accustomed to for so many years will be replaced by others which we have associated only with fine Opposition speeches, or popular novels, or the broad acres of conservative magnates. The colleagues of Lord Palmerston were veterans and something more ; most of Lord Derby's friends have yet their spurs to win.' Had it not been for their very poor performance in 1852, and their singular obstinacy in adhering to their perishing creed for the last six long years, learning nothing and for getting nothing, there would doubtless be a better feeling for the new men at the present time, and theory for giving them a fair trial would have been raised not unsuccess fully. As it is, they come iato power with no help but from their own narrow party, and amid the expressive silence of the political world. Yet the Government of Lord Derby has certainly the advantage of fresh blood. It contains many new men, some of them of decid e d promise. The Lor d Ch ancellor is not, indeed, a great equ i ty lawyer, but he i s active and able, with a fondness f or legislation, which, if diverted from the task of torm en ti ng Papists and J ews i n t o a more worthy channel, may be of exce ll ent serv i c e to the St a t e. ' Popular President of the House of Lords and a dignifi e d c h ief of the legal profession. Lord Stanley is a man of abilit y and application; his op i nions on He is also likely to b e a colonial matters are those of the new school which Sir W. Molesworth may be said to have founded, and he has taken the trouble to subject them to the test of travel. General reel is the new Minister of whom we can say least, because we know least about him, but he is at any rate a new man, and in a new position way thr ow offthe prejudices of hi s class and professio n , b y which alone we have hitherto known him. Out o f the Cabinet there are several ap pointments from whi c h the public may hope something. Lord Carnarvon is Under -Secretary for the Colonies, and, though the school o f "earnest" you p g noblemen has not given us anythi ng very extraordinary as yet, still Lord c , Carnarvon may be considered as a neophyte of very fair promise. Mr. 11ardY, L ord Hardinge, an d M r . S o th eron Estcourt may also be exp ected to learn t h e i r business, and to add to the num b er of politicians endowed with , that much valued a tt r ib ute—offiial the Treasury an d of the Admiralty are mostly new men of character and a bili ty. Mr. Cairns, the Solicitor-General, is a Chancery barri s t er, who has won his way at an early experience. The Lords of ago to the first rank in his profession, and may look for ward to the highest legal destinies. On the whole, it must be allowed th a t L ord Derby has agood selection from the mass of his followers.- ma e a g What would not the Liberal cause have gained had any Premier had the courage or the will thus to go forth into the political highway and bring in th ,se whom his own batter judgment indicated as the fittest men ! Even though official experience might have bO, of f ended at the slight, yet the choice of an occasional new man would have been gratifying to the country, which would expect that some originality and breadth of view would be the consequence of the bold deviation from routine. But we are sorry to say that the Liberal party has had no such good fortune. 1 Its constitution does not admit of it It is organised like some Eastern race. The Whigi are its Levites, its B h iven to mankind to penes ra. mins, the hereditary possessors of all knowledge and the 3' have their traditions guardians c u h os fa l ages, ant o wm i hy n is t ct e he r :leer es . 8 V i 11 ?T 1 tthhge. It is only by long- c o n - tin u e d iuvestigation that we are able to discover the prin , ciples on which they distribute a ea ce and administer affairs, and a discovery of this kind ought to rank among the revelations of science. If we rn aY Venture to guess at ' one or two political laws which a series of observa tions seems to verify, we would say that it is a principle of Whig he lives long enough, be put into every Cabinet office, and that when a place unexpected person from among those who are eligible by having been something else before. ~_ Lord P a l mers t on is i s vacant rule i t t h a i t s wise e v every to app o i n t th e mos t e man should, if himself a man of energy, and has a mmn himself to be the cause of energy in others, yet from want of will or power he failed to deviate from the hereditary traditions. Three years ago he took office, supported by th e Whigs, and by Sir James Graham, Mr. Gladstone, and Mr. S. Herbert. The Radical Party held aloof, and soon the Palmer trio broke from their allegiance. Since then Lord Palmerston has been content to preside over the old Whig priesthood. He has been something more himself than a traditional politician, but he has been waling thathis followers should be of the oil stock and the old type. Perhaps it is natu ral in a statesman of the late Premier's age to select men to whom he has been accustomed during many years, and whose qualities he knows, not the least important of those qualities being ' that they are not likely t o thwart his cause it • po licy ; but, from whatevera rose, it is certain that t the late Administration counted more han the average num ber of men below the level of decent official ability. The Chancellor, Lord Cranworth , has held his post f or th e t erm , long in these days, o f five years ; but th e l earned lord will hardly be ranked high among the woolsack. With judicialhis decisions we hav e no thi ng to do; but, since he has been benefited beyond any who establishment the - went before by the of Court, the public had a sight to look for greater vigour in which his illus. those legal reforms of the prosecution of rs had settheexample.The first four yeas predecesso but little progress I Progress made, and it was A' his office passed with sew loud i n and remonstrance, of until the public voice g . . took the matter in hand himself, that the two the Premier measures which superseded the Ecclesi as ti ca l C our t s we re introduced and c arried through in earnest. Lord Pan mure is a Scotchman an d a Whig; and ill both oapadtloll LORD PALMERSTON'S DOIVIVFAIiL. What is the cause of Lord Palmerston's downfall ? In one word—Distrust. A distrust occasioned by his own conduct—a distrust which some have been feeling for years, and which in others has only been admitted in ex change for confidence—a distrust which, once kindled up, has shed its light on his whole past career and his essential character—a distrust so widely spread and so deeply felt, as to reach alike the decided and the moderate, the peace ful ani the belligerent, and, in fact, all parties and classes —a distrust which has nut only hurled him from the pinnacle of power, but which will go very far, probably quite far enough, to prevent his being ever again found in the resumption of that power. The diVision on the night of the 19th of February was not only remarkable fur the significant names which were contained in the majority, comprehending most of the men to whom different classes in this country look with confidence; but also for the omissions in the list of the Ministerial minority. It was reinforced by 15 Conserva tives ; but where was the Liberal Strength ? With all the power and prestige of office, it only reckoned, deducting the aforesaid 15, at 200. Where were they? Not at a distance, anticipating no important struggle. Not gene to keep holiday in country houses. Not away on business or pleasure. No. They were there, within reach of the master's call. There, within length of the whipper-in's lash. It is affirmed by those who had opportunities of observing, that a sufficient number of them to turn the scale and reverse the majority had actually heard the de bate, and only made their exit into the outer lobby. They stood by, while Palmerston fell. Distrust had reached them, as a body of his tried supporters, and they were pa ralysed. _ It is openly said in the House of Commons that many more than the majority of-I9 votes which turned out Ministers were given against Lord Palmerston on purely personal grounds. Numbers think 'him overbearing and insolent, and expressed their determination to " tame him." The contemptuous terms in which, in the Indian . debate,'he spoke of a "set of - mere merchants,", stuck in the gizzard of the "great ones of the City'," and his slash ing taunts and rebuffs of all who opposed him, are treasured up and "paid. out" when the tarn serves. The reply on Gibson's motion was, for bad temper, and want of self command, utterly without example in a leader of the house; and it is remarked that a Premier was never before treated so cavalierly. " Question ! question !" and Oh ! oh !" are Sounds seldom applied to such a personage, ex capt tinder great provocation. The cheering on the an nouncement of the numbers was quite unprecedented. Mr. White actually threw up his hat in the air. Lord Palmer ston threw down the list of the division with every sign of testy contempt !--- Weekly Dtb:puta. - _ Z. TEIE NE 6Y CABINET. 11-_ • . . (Pram the Daily Newt.) - Before the new Ministers can take their places in the House of Commons Lord Palmerston has in stalled himself—on his own nomination—in the seat conceded by use and wont to the leader of the Opposition. 'This assumption of office on his part was cheered by his friends in the house •, and already batteries have been opened on Lord Derby's Government from the journals devoted to the in terests of the ex-Premier. Are the independent members of Parliament, or is the country at large, prepared to acquiesce in this usurpation ? Are they willing to act on the understanding that there can only be two Ministers and two party organisations in England, and that office must be tossed back wards and forwards between them like a shuttle c.)ck between two battledores. Lord Palmerston by res'gning has confessed that the vote of the House of Commons on Mr. Milner Gibson's motion was so severe a censure of the policy of his Adminis tration that he could not retain office under it. In consequence of his resignation the Queen has exer cised her undoubted prerogative of entrusting the business of the nation to a new Ministry. It would be suicidal in the independent members of the House of Commons who have just driven Lord Palmerston from office to commence an immediate • attack upon Lord Derby, without pausing to deli berate as to what is the beat course to be pursued with regard to him, or who is the leader most worthy of their confidence. Before the independent members of the House of Commons accept Lord Palmerston as a leader, they will do well to pause and reflect what have been the principles ostentatiously proclaimed of late by his most able and influential organ in the press. On the 11th 'of last month the Times indulged its readers with an exposition of the view it takes of the functions of an English Ministry and an Eng lish Opposition. After denouncing with scornful sar casm the line pursued by the then Opposition with regard to the Conspiracy Bill, the Times pro ceeded to remark, with wonderful candour :—" We don't wish to flatter the present occupants [of the Opposition benches]. On the contrary we have little doubt that if Lord Palmerston, Sir George Grey, and the Ministers generally, found them selves on the other side, they would do the duties of that position as welljas they are now doing their own. We should have them suggesting a flaming mani festo as apretty compliment to send to the French Emperor and Empress just witnesses of a fearful carnage intended for themselves—informing them for their comfort, th a t it was th e custom of t h is country to take its own time, and put itself out for nobody, not even for an Emperor. We should have Sir George Grey taking his stand on the Nolumus leges Anglice,' &e., or some other wise old saying ; or arguing that because too much was done in Queen Anne's time, and no more than enough in George lll.'s, therefore we ought to do nothing at all. Some other member, now on the Treasury Bench, would argue that if a word too much had been said on the other side of the Channel we ought to retaliate by doing nothing, and refuse to take a step against murderers in revenge for long tongues." And this tirade was wound up by a recommendation to explain to the irate French colonels the real value of debates in the House of Commons. "Let them be instructed that a bill is only a sort of thesis laid on the table of the House of Commons, just as a proposition used to be written on a slip of paper, and posted on the gates of a University, or the doors of a school, to provoke a disputation and to sharpen youthful wits. Let it be explained that at Westminster we have still opponents,' as they used to be called, while the Government represent the 'respondents' of the mediroval disputations. In those days it was no unusual circumstance for the disputers to change sides the day after, when each of them was expected to improve on the arguments of his yesterday's ~ppenents, and generally did so. . . Such is our Parliamentary system, and we are far from deny ing its merits. It is best to know both sides_ of a , question and we have them in the debates t h e Imperial Legislature, though, govern mentsfortunatel f ie,the are obliged to take only ono side — tha t practical one." It is not ie9possible that many of the readers of the Times Ay have regarded t he "leader" from which we have been quoting as merely a playful caricature, an ebullition of irrepressible animal spirits excited by the triumph of a large majority. But the course which has been pursued by the Times,.since the division on Mr. Milner Gib son ' s mo tion, must have convinced even the most chari table, that the article in question is a cynical avowal of the scandalous opinions and principles of action of the Party in behalf of which it is penned. OA the MY raCniag after the division the Times TWO SOLICITORS CHARGED WITH FORGERY. On Saturday morning James and Charles Mellor, 'tither and son, solicitors, recently in business at Ashton-under-Lyne, were brought before the magis trates of that borough charged with forgery. Mr. Marriott, solicitor, of Manchester, said the pri soners had been captured in America, and brought to this country on two c h arges of forgery. One of these charges was that of altering the word " one " to " four " hi a receipt given to the Mellors by Simon Fothergill, of Manchester, whose wife was a legatee under the will of the late Mr. Hart, the administration of whose affairs had been placed in tLe hands of the elder prisoner. The receipt had thus been passed off as for 4501., when the prisoner had, in reality, only paid 1501. The second charge was for creating and passing off, as for value, a deed of conveyance, which purported to convey to a person named Prestwich, certain pro. e p o e n r y ty e3 a_ e t r S b a e d in d g lew th o a r t tb o , ftha clerk e ame in The elder prisoner was charged with uttering these used m a as n t o b e a s t office.of the forgeries', and the son Charles with having engrossed the fictitious conveyance, asked the clerk to sign it, and that he had, as for himself, witnessed the signature. Evidence of a prima facie character only, upon which to ask for a remand, was give n , and the magistrate then remanded the prisoners until Wednesday next. It appears the prisoners were captured by Mr. Buckley, of the Manchester detective police, who started in pursuit on Jan. 15 last, with warrants for their apprehension, by the Canada steamer from Liverpool to Boston. From Boston he went to P or tl an d , thence to Island Pond, Montreal, Toront o , Detroit, Chicago, and Sand wich. At the last place he hired a waggon and pro ceeded to the prairie lands of Illinois, about 30 miles from St. L ou i s, where he arrived on Feb. 6. Here he found the prisoners staying at a farmhouse occupied by Mr. E. Heap. He was introduced as a countryman, and did not disclose his errand until he had satisfied himself by conversation with them that they were the men he was in search of. He brought them home by the Edinburgh steamer from New York, and arrived at Ashton on Saturday, having travelled altogether between 9,000 and 10,000 miles. It was expected that the prisoners d t o h f a t v h e e ahelaarvgye f s o u r in geri o e f s m t o h n ey ey e w om ith m t i h tt e e m d: b th u e t r w e u u Buckley only recovered 1401. and some deeds. It has before been stated that the prisoner 3 held a highly respectable position at Ashton. _ . 1, Despatches were received at the Colonial-office, on Saturday, from the Lord High Commissioner of the lonian Islands.

In our late edition of Saturday we announced the cap ;lire of Lani, the Italian, who is charged w ith mur d er i ng 'he woman in the Haymarket. We now give some addi tional particulars. When the first intelligence reached Mr. Hannant, at half-past nine o'clock on Wednesday night, the facts could mly be obtained in an imperfect manner through the aid of interpreters, and the description of the supposed asses sin wes necessarily incomplete, all the parties who were questioned declaring that he was a foreigner, and that he had never been seen in the neighbourhood until the night of the murder, or at furthest on the Monday evening pre viously. Notwithstanding these manifest difficulties, Mr. Han , nant applied himself PeißUDi t e o ro t r h e e e rn as i e sn ead t of the most strenuous exertions, al b description of the suspected person, with a list of property missing, was circulated throughout all the stations of the metropolitan police, as well as those within the district of the city of London. ' Thus, on Thursday morning, the police throughout Lon don were on the alert, and before the close of the day a highly-important clue to the suspected man was obtained, through the intelligence and skill of Sergeant Huggett, a well-known officer of the 'detective police attached to the City of London. As soon as news of the murder had been ,eceived. in the City, Inspector Hamilton and Sergeant lluggett set about making inquiries, and the latter very quickly found that a person exactly answering the descrip ,ion of the missing man had been lodging for about a fort night at Klein's private hotel, a highly respectable esta blishment much frequented by foreign visitors to this country, at No. 38, Finsbury-square. The inquiries Hag gett made soon satisfied him that he was on the right track, and after consulting with his inspector, the result was communicated to Mr. Hannant, of the C division, who at once desired Inspector Parke to accompany Huggett to the hotel in question. On arriving in Finsbury-square on Friday morning, Mr. Klein desired his servants to give the officers every pos sible information ; and from the head waiter, an intelli gent man, who has been in Mr. Klein's service several years, Mr. Parke obtained the following facts :—That, on the 4th inst., a young man, whose name was understood to be Giovanni Lani, had arrived at the hotel from Italy with the avowed attention of proceeding to Monte Video, in South America—that he resided at the hotel uninter ruptedly until the night of Tuesday, the 23L1 inst. (the night of the murder), during which he was absent, and did not return to the hotel until four o'clock on Wednesday afternoon. On then entering the waiter remarked that Lani held a pocket handkerchief to his face, which appeared to have been scratched in several places. The waiter added that he had himself remarked to Lani that his face appeared to have been injured, upon which he replied in Italian, "Yes ; I have been playing with the cat on board ship, and she has scratched my face." The waiter play fully rejoined—" I think it must have been a human cat, sir,"—an observation which appeared to annoy Lani con siderably, for after going upstairs to his bedroom he paid his bill, and shortly afterwards brought to the door a cab, in which he left the hotel, taking his luggage with him. Nothing had been since seen of Lani at the hotel, but most fortunately, Mr. Klein was able to give the police infor mation of the name of the ship in which his lodger had engaged a passage to Monte Video. On boarding the ship the officers found Lani and other male and female passengers at breakfast in the.cabin. On perceiving strangers entering Lani appeared anxious to avoid their observation, but on being tad that they were officers, and that they desired to inspect his luggage, he offered no objection, and quietly stood by Huggett while Mr. Parke prepared to examine his baggage. This con sisted of a small leather portmanteau, of foreign manufac ture, well fitted, and secured with leather straps; a foreign hat-box and an accordion in a mahogany case. The port manteau was first opened, and on raising the lid the rose wood cotton and needle box, above described, containing the portrait-brooch belonging to the deceased, was dis covered immediately beneath. The officer, after examin ing the contents, held up the box to the ob ervation of Lani, who merely remarked, in broken English, "Me bought it—me bought it." Mr. Parke and Huggett were now quite satisfied as to their man, and ex pressed to the mate . heir intention of taking Lani into custody. When this was explained to him, Lani declared in Italian that he would not go with the offi cers, adding, that if they attempted to take him he would drown them before they got ashore. The pri soner's observation was translated by one of the female pas sengers to Mr. Parke, who thereupon exhibited a pair of handcuffs, which hal a wholesome effect on the prisoner's behaviour afterwards, and he went ashore quietly. On being identified at Vine-street Lani quietly observed in Italian, " Yes, I was there. I did sleep with madame." The prisoner was now formally charged with the murder of Heloise Taubin. On being asked his name, the accused handed to Mr. Hannant a Sardinian passport, in which he is described as " Giovanni Lard de Antonio, the va Monte Video, South America." Hi s personaldescription in the same document is as follows :—A go , twenty-one years • height, 5 feet 10 inche s ; pro f ession, tinsmith, and Corn at Domo Dossolo, on the Lake of Como. The passport was vised ,by the French consul at Genoa, " bon arrived po urtr i a n ve L rs o e n r do l n a o F n ra th n e ce l , 4 " th on ui t ti h m e o. 27th u pon his Janua ry, p 'er a s n on d were found a number of letters, hearing initial signatures, in which he is addressed as " Carissimo A.mico," evid en tly' written by women of his acquaintance, and among his papers is a stamped receipt for 30 1 . in gold, paid t o M essrs . Alex. Howden and Sons for his passage to M on t e Video person was Buenos Ayres. The only cash found up on hi s was half-a-crown and Id. in coppers, and none has be en discovered in bis boxes. The accused is a remarkably fine young man, and there is nothing in his countenance betraying a ferocity of dis position. His features are good, and his complexion, un like Italians generally, fresh coloured. The perfect cool ness with which he listened to the dreadful charge made against him, and his subsequent apparent indifference at the awful position in which he stands, is the worst phase which his case presents to an indifferent observer. It has transpired that a person answering the descrip tion of Lani offered for sale on Thursday afternoon at the shop of Mr. Massy, a jeweller, in Leadenhall-street, a watch which is believed to have been that of the deceased woman. This watch is missing, and, as the reduced state of the prisoner's finances leads to a fair presumption that he has sold it, the ends of justice would be greatly facili tated if any persons to whom the watch may have been offered will come forward in order to see if they can iden tify the accused. It is also desirable that the driver of the cab who took the prisoner from Finsbury-square on Wed nesday afternoon should come forward and state where he was discharged. In previous reports it has not been mentioned that the key of the room in which the deceased was murdered is missing. This is an important fact, and shows that the d so o n o e r r m w u h s t h o , noa v e b do e u e b n tlockedtook k from Away wtiyw t i h th e h e i u m t s an d u e d by the afterwardp r i ; disposed of the key.
