The intelligence from India is still of a che quered character. In some parts all is coleur de rose—matters are proceeding as satisfactorily as could be anticipated ; while in others we hear of reverses, accompanied by the loss of gallant officer's and of many efficient soldiers. Such a state of affairs is for some time inevitable. It cannot be averted by any strategy. We are still contend. ing against large numerical majorities. At Delhi a large proportion of the mutineers and rebels, who thought "discretion the better part of valour," and were thoroughly cognisant of the fact that "he who fights and runs away may live to fight another day," escaped into Oude, and co-operated with the Lucknow insurgents. There • they hoped to gratify their sanguinary propensi ties, and to witness the destruction, and perhaps something worse than the destruction, of the hated Feringhees. But the self-sacrificing devotion of HATELoon—the unflinching courage of OUTRAM— and the skilful tactics, and brilliant strategy of CAMPBELL, completely disappointed their anticipa tions. The fugitives at Lucknow were rescued. The chivalrous brows had not worked in vain. At the eleventh hour the inspiring notes of the Hieland'i safety and pibroch conveyed the glad tidings of succour to the fugitives. But more remained to be accomplished. Al though the fugitives were preserved from the awful fate to which they had been doomed, Luck now, the capital of the rebel state, still remained in the bands of our opponents. The safety of the fugitives, th e helpless women and innocent chil dren, who had passed through an ordeal so terri ble, was the first care of Sir Comic. The modern BAYARD would not risk a combat while their Sa f ely was dependent on the result. He accordingly made a masterly retreat, to be speedily followed by a more masterly advance. He returned - to Lucknow, having completed the most skilful arrangements for the destruction or capture of the THE SUN, LONDON, MON DAY EVENING, MAY 31, 1858. about half that number ; and by that time the slave-holders calculate on adding one or more new slave states, by taking a slice or two from Mexico! Even should the Kansas free-soilers refuse the disgraceful bribe, and elect to remain a territory, the slavery men will have gained time to balance their power afresh by creation of new slave states. Parallel with this political monstrosity, we read in all the American papers, secular and daily, as well as religious papers, long accounts of a monster religious revival. The weekly edi tion of the New York Tribune, the paper of the largest daily circulation in the States, and edited by the well-known HORACE GREELY, is now before us. The number for the 3rd of April, eight pages of forty-eight columns, is entirely devoted to a kind of history of the movement, and of its actual character throughout the country. Mr. GREELY speaks respectfully -of it, although it is in opposition to his own religious sentiments, as he is a Universalist, wo are told, and the revival is almost confined to what are termed evangelical denominations. It is, he states, pretty nearly confined to the Free States, having hardly pene trated the Slave States at all ; a circumstance, doubtless, in its favour. He appears to lean to the opinion that the commercial reverses of last Fall, and the bitter disappointment about Kansas, disposed mans' minds to turn to religion as a counterpoise. It commenced in New York. There has been, wo are told, no mani festation of extravagance, nothing which even an English clergyman, who 'writes on the subject, could itstice as the least violation of pro priety and order. There were no monster, no " fire and brimstone " preachers. Indeed, it be gan with the laity, the business men of the city, the class parallel with our men of 'Change, arranging to hold a prayer-meeting for one hour, in the very midst of business hours ! And these meetings aro wholly unsectarian, and unclerical, and, under the name of Union Prayer-meetings, have spread all over the Union. " The Revival —says the Tribune of the 3d of April—his passed, and is still passing over the country like a wave ; the existence of an unusual religions in terest is recognised and acknowledged in almost every town, village, and district throughout the entire Northern and Western States." " The excitement of a Presidential canvass could hardly call forth more general interest or more active participation !" Englishmen will be naturally inclined to ask— and what about slavery ? Do the Revivalists show marked symptoms of penitence for their great national sin ? Have they learned to regard coloured people as brother men ? Do they still drive them out of the white man's omni bus, and steamboat saloon, and still drive them into a negro pew, or into a separate church for coloured men ? At the " Union Prayer-meetings" are petitions heard for the emancipation of the slave, and confessions heard of national guilt for the most horrible form of slavery ever heard of in Heathendom, Judaism, or Christendom ? Ws shall never believe, on this side the Atlantic, in the reality of any general religious movement in the States which does not emancipate the slave. On this subject Mr. GREELY'S paper gives us little information. " President BUCHANAN, and four millions in chains," are, it says, daily prayed for in a coloured church. Ode or two letters by fugitive slaves were read, requesting thanksgivings for escape to New York, and prayer for their " complete deliverance from the power of the manhunter !" But, one coloured man writes to the Tribune, that he and a coloured woman were asked to go into a separate room, and hold a ser vice separately from the white sinners who were praying for conver,sion, ! We notice, however, that the religious organisations in America are splitting on the question of slavery. The Metho dists, Baptists, and Presbyterians are already dis organised by it, and the Northern churches are re fusing association with those of the South. The American Tract Society—one of the oldest and richest of the religious societies—is quite divided ; the Northern divines maintaining that as slavery is a sin, religious tracts must denounce it ; the Southern Reverends demanding expurgated tracts for their Slave Slates ! To us Englishmen, it seems that as Christianity, in every form in civi lised Europe, has broken the fetters of the slave, so the Christianity of America is unworthy of the name of civilised Christianity unless it does the same. As to revisal of religion, we are confident that it must be a very earthly revival—a revival of which the Exchange and the "Almighty dollar" are the inspiration, unless it cast out the demon of Slavery. That will be our test. If it crush slivery, we shall believe that it came from Heaven. If it uphold it, or pass by on the other side, it comes not from Him who gave us the parable of the good Samaritan. LATEST NEWS. The following Telegram from ber.

Having exhausted the stock of home suijccts, Mr. Swith O'Brien has this week contributed to the _Nation, a long and laboured essay on the state of foreign relations. In it there is one passage in re ference to an event which, perhaps, might as well have been permitted to slumber ; but, as Mr. O'Brien cho: - ises to revive the question, it may be as well to know his real views respecting the re ception of an invading French army in Ireland. He says : " I have been charged by British statesmen with hav ing sought armed assistance from France in 1848. The charge was false, though it received a certain ranction from the language of M. Lamartine. I invited in 1848 the sympathies of the French people for the cause of Ire land. I invite them still. The French people know perfectly well how to distinguish between the Irish and the English nation. The reception which has recently been given in France to a memoir of Robert Emmet, beautifully written by a granddaughter of the celebrated Madame Stael—the Countess de Hau3sonville—indi cates the feeling of France towards Ireland. This Fort of sympathy I cherish, but have no desire to see a French army within the shores of this island. If we cannot acquire and maintain our national rights by our own vigour and public spirit, we shall never acquire or maintain them by the aid of a French army. lam in clined to think that there is in Ireland a considerable section of the population who would prefer to live under French rule rather than under the Govern ment of Great Britain, but I do not participate in this sentiment. I admit, indeed, that the treatment which the Catholics of Ireland would have experienced from France in comparison with that which they expe rienced from England during the operation of the penal laws would have been greatly in favour of French - rule. But it is not so now. The constitutional Government of Great Britain is greatly preferable to the arbitrary des potism which now prevails in France. Liberty of speech is wholly unknown in that country, and a police espionage pervades the whole of society. With me, at least, no amount of material prosperity could com pensate this deprivation of liberty. I am, there fore, little disposed to wish that my country should be converted into a French province. Do not imagine that a French army would aid you to acquire national independence. Wherever the French arms have been borne—whether into Spain, into Italy, into Belgium, or Holland—they have been carried for the extension of French power, not with a view to the libe ration of oppressed nationalities. I confess, therefore, that I would •earnestly wish to see 300,000 Irishmen under arms when the French colonels prepare to pay their promised visit to London. I believe that the people of Ireland, if properly organised and animated by a noble spirit of self-relying patriotism, would be able to protect this island against every external foe. Perhaps the Irish people if armed might, in the event of hostilities with France, call to mind the precedent set them by their fathers in 1782, and might say, ' We will protect your empire in the hour of its utmost need, but as a preliminary we require the restitution of a Parlia ment to Ireland with unrestricted powers of self-govern ment. Such a demand—such a compact would be pi r fectly legitimate, and would entitle you to thanks such as the Volunteers' of 1782 received, not only from their own countrymen, but from the British Government," TIRE O'CONNELL FIAMILY. The remains of Mr. John O'Connell were interred yesterday beside those of his brother Maurice in Glasnevin Cemetery. The funeral cortege is said to have been the longest since the burial of O'Connell in 1847. After the body had been consigned to the vault a meeting was held in the cemetery, fur the purpose of taking the preliminary steps towards the formation of a committee to collect subscrip tions to a fund for the relief of the widow and chil dren of the deceased. The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor presided, and resolutions expressive of con dolence with and sympathy for Mrs. O'Connell and her family were adopted. The meeting was addressed by the Right Hon. J. D.

The death of this gallant officer, from small-pox, rs communicated to us by the Government telegram, which appears in anoth-r column. It is not too much to say that the nation will participate in the grief into which his family aro thrown by the mournful event. Capt. Sir Wm. Peel was third s - m of the late Sir R. Peel, Bart., and born in Nov., 1824. He en tered the navy as midshipman on board the Princess Charlotte, Capt. A. Fanshawe, flag of Admiral Sir R. Stopford, in 1838, and took part in the bom bardment of St. Jeau &Acre, from which ship he removed to the Monarch, and afterwards to the Cambrian, Capt. Chads, in which ship of war he served in the China Seas. In 1844 he passed his examination in such a brilliant manner, that he nailed forth the warm eulogiums of Sir T. Hastings and Sr C. Napier, and was forthwith promoted to the rank of lieutenant. In May that year he was appointed to the Winchester, 50 guns, on the Cape of Good Hope station, and shortly after removed to the Cormorant, steam sloop in the Pacific, and subsequently to the Thalia, 42, on the same station. Sir William was promoted to the rank of commander June, 1846, and was appointed to the command of the Daring on the North American and West India station. The lamented captain held several minor commands until the outbreak of the late war with Russia. He was captain of the Diamond, 28, in the Black Sea fleet, and distinguished himself greatly with the Naval Brigade in the Crimea ; and his name will ever be associated with the gallant doings of the Diamond battery before Sebastopol. Capt. Peel was compelled, from wounds and over-nicer- Coo, to return to his native country before the fall of that formidable fortress, to recruit his health, but his services were acknowledged by the bestowsl of the Victoria Cross. At the commencement of the differences with China, in 1856, he was appointed to the command of the Shannon, 51, screw frigate, ordered on the China station. Captain Peel bad scarcely reached the Chinese waters before he was ordered by the Ambassador, Lord Elgin, to pro cee d with troops to Calcutta to afford assistancein the sup pression of the mutiny in the Bengal army. Since the Shannon anchored in the Hoogbley Sir Wm. Peel's exertions with his brave crew was unremit ting in carrying out the views of th e G overnor- General. He made, with his men, a most rapid progress to Allahabad and into Cawnpore, and, as most of our readers are aware, was severely wounded in the capture of Lucknow, under Gen. Sir Colin Campbell, by a musket shot in the thigh. Captain Sir W. Peel was made a Companion of the Order of the Bath for his servi ces i n t h e C r i mea, and for his recent services in India nominated a Knight-Commander of that order of knighthood. He was also an officer of the Legion of Honour of France, and of the Imperial order of the Medjidie, and had received the Sardinian war medal. Sir William was the favourite son of his illustrious fa ther. It is related that in speaking of his son after the war on the coast of Syria, Sir R. Peel said, " I am indeed proud of my salor son. if he have the opportunity, I feel certain he will follow the heroic career of oue he socks to emulate—Nelson." THE REV. MR. SPURGEON AT EPSOM GRAND STAND.-., In the coerce of an eloquent sermon yesterday morning at the Surrey Music-hall, the hall being very full, the aoove rev, gentleman announced his intention of preach ing a sermon on Friday week from the Grand Star,d at Epsom to his friends there, and he &so expressed bis hope that on the occasion he should be favoured with a large attonclance of "c•utsidere." By the decease of Captain Evans the appointment cf Captain of Invalids at Chel , ea Hospital has become vacant, and is in the gift of the Earl of Donoughmore, Paymaster-General. LAW INTELLIGENCE—(Tins Day.) COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) APPEAL.--DAVISON V. ROBINSON. The further hearing of this part heard appeal was re• sumed this morning. Mr. Wilcock, Q.C., and Mr. Toriano were heard for the appellant. Mr. Rolt, Q C., and Mr. Bagshaw were heard for the defendant. This was an appeal from the usual foreclosure decree by Vice-Chancellor Sir William Page Wood, on a aloe gage deed for 350/. Two points arose in this case-Ist A❑ objection was taken to the admissibility of a cap'', not authenticated, of the bankrupt's examination before the Commissioner in Bankruptcy. The defendant's attoraey, Mr. Walker, and his clerk were examined on oath, and proved the production of the original examination of the bankrupt in this suit-- the loss of the original examination upon—and that the copy produced was a true and correct copy of the original examination. The Lord Chancellor admitted the copy as evidence• 2. An exception was then taken to the Vice•Ohan caller's decree cn the ground of want of consideration for granting the mortgage deed, and undue preference by the bankrupt to the plaintiff, which rendered the mort deed null and void. The Lord Chancellor, after hearing counsel for the parties on this exception, directed an issue to be tried at the next York Assizes, " whether the bankrupt gave the plaintiff an undue preference by granting to Biel the mortgage deed in question." The rest of the suit to stand over to abide the result of the trial, with liberty to apply, and the case to come again before his lord. ship. flying rebels. But, unfortunately, there was a partial failure. Although Lucknow was captured, and the British flag floated over the rebels' stronghold, one link in the chain was defective — one meshe in the elaborate net work broken. Sir HUGH ROSE was prevented from taking up his assigned position at the proper time, by insuper able obstacles. The state of affairs at Jhansi pre vented his advance, and there was consequently a loophole fur escape, of which the rebels largely availed themselves. The great body of the in surgents fled from before their then conquerors, but can still maintain a guerilla warfare that may occasion much trouble and lead to the loss of many valuable lives. Should the fugitives be encouraged by the discontented talookdars and zemindars, driven to desperation by the confiscation proclamation, it would be diffi cult to predict where the matter would terminate. We have had some repulses. The first attack on the Fort cf Rowas failed, and Brigadier AD RIAN HOPE, whose name had previously acquired high distinction was killed. It is, however, satis factory to know that the rebels subsequently abandoned their position, and our troops were enabled to move forward. A small force under Captain LE GRAND seems to have fallen into a trap. The party which had advanced from Azz%n followed, perhaps imprudently, the enemy into the jungle, and 133 men and 3 officers, including the commander were killed. In addition, we learn that Body was taken by General WIIITELOCK on the 19th April, after an engagement in which the enemy lost 500 men and 4 guns. Sir H. ROSE left Jhansi on the 27th, and expected, first, to be joined by Gen. WIIITELOCK, and then to fight the Ranee's army, 12,000 strong, encamped at Koouchin, advance of Calpee. The Kotah force has gone into quarters, with the exception of a small brigade ordered to pro ceed to Sir H. ROSE'S roar. General PENNY is moving now from the Ganges to assail Calpee from the East. Brigadier ;JOHNS, of the 60th Rifles, has been successful in reaching Moradabad on the 25th April, after three actions, and the capture of Rujeedabad and Nujeena. Sir WILLIAM PEEL is also dead 1 That truly gallant officer has fallen a victim to small-pox. He had established for himself a high reputa tion. The community had fully acquiesced in the well-merited honours that had been bestowed on him. He was a true hero, and his name will be remembered through ages as the worthy coadjutor and efficient auxiliary of HAVELOCK and OUTRAM. We do not say "we could have better spared a better man," for it would be difficult to find one more deserving of the national gratitude than the hero who has just been deposited in his last resting-place. There was nothing but the imperative sense of duty to urge him onward. He had an ample fortune— had won high honours, and could not obtain a single step on the lad ler of promotion by any triumph, however brilliant. But still he fought and conquered, and has left a name that will long be enshrined in the memories of his countrymen. His loss alone more than counterbalances the suc cesses recorded in another part of our impression, and truly and sincerely we sympathise with his bereaved family. It would have been more satis factory had he fallen on the ensanguined field ; but his end is not the less glorious, nor will his melancholy fate be the less lamented. What a land of steady growth, yet of the strangest out-comings of human caprice, is the United States. Hardly half a century old as an independent Power, they have so 'overtopped everything in the New World, that if America is spoken of we at once understand the Union. While the States, whieh are but fragments of the vast Spanish domains of the centre and South, are waning, and preparing themselves by ceaseless political changes for absorption into the Great Republic, the latter, especially its Northern and Western past, is rapidly, almost portentously, advancing in population, territorial extent, and commercial vigour. New States, like Kansas and Minesota, as big as large kingdoms, are every now and then added to the Federation ; and even Canada, the Great Britain of the North American continent, has been content, till quite lately, to let the pushing Republic walk the course. This vigorous growth, however, seems to be attended by all its natural concomitants. There is a strange mixture of laddish swagger, which all naturally forgive to an overgrown lad-empire, with the cunning of an acute lawyer or moneys lender of forty or fifty. But there are, also, all kinds of freaks of social and individual fancy. Not long ago her filibusters in Cuba and Nicaragua were bearding not only the weak Powers of those countries, but defying the opinion of all Europe. Her Mormons have for some years been the moat remarkable instance in the modern world of the success of a half Mahomedan, half Jewish poli tical and religious organisation, attracting in larr*/) numbers votaries to the absurdest of impo:tures, and inspiring them with an energy which makes them of political consequence in the States, and renders them no contemptible antagonists for such an army as the Union can send across the deserts and prairies which separate Utah from the great body of the States. A monster commercial crisis, a monster fight for slavery and free soil, and a monster re vival of religion, are among the very recent events in the States—the latter being still in active progress. The monster Kansas iniquity is probably as great a piece of villany as ever was perpetrated by Legislators and a President in the face of a civilised community the territory settled by freemen was first attempted to be seized by Border ruffiins in the interest of slave-holders; the late forgotten President egged them on, and en abled them by open violence to seize the Govern ment, and enact laws giving all power to pledged pro-slavery me n only ; the famous, or rather in famous, Lecompton Convention and Constitution, were the offspring of all this, as the Topeka Con stitution was of the bond fide settlers, who refused to be bound by the atrocious scoundrelism patron ised by slave-holders and their President at Washington. BucusztAx himself got the Chair by a discreet but treacherous silence as to the course he should pursue in Kansas. Eventually, the Lecompton or Slavery Constitution comes before Congress. The opposition is stron g and long against such glaring unrighteousness ; but it was nearly balanced by the slavery votes is the Lower House ; and the Upper House, like most Upper Houses, was the stronghold of every abuse. Withthe immense powers of corruption in the hands of an American President, powers used as un scrupulously as they were by our WALPGLES of a past age, Mr. BUCHANAN found means to pass a cunning, yet audacious Instead of devising measures for honestly taking the sense of the tu ritory, one of his creatures, a Mr. ENGLISH, arranged a compromise, which was, in, reality, one purely in the interests of slavery. Under it, if Kansas would accept the L.?.compton Constitu tion, and come in now as a slave state, she was to be rewarded with five millions additional acres of territory,. as well as immediate independent pol:- mai existence. If she would not, she must remain a mere territory several years longer, till the population reaches 93,000; it being now MINISTRIIdL ARRANGEMENTS. We can positively state that Lord Stanley has accepted the office of President of the Board of Control. A more popular noblenun to fill a position now become so important could not have been selected. The office of Secretary of State for the Colonies, rendered vacant by the ae3eptation of the above Presidentship by the noble lord, has been accepted by Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton. _ New writs for Hertfordshire and King's Lynn will be moved for this evening in the House of Commons. nEll MAJESTY'S THEATRE.—Tbe new opera " Luisa Miller," is to be produced on Tuesday, Bth June, at her Majasty's Theatre. Reports speak highly of the music and of the part of the heroine, for which Mdlle Piccolonsini has be n selected. Signor Giuglini has also an interesting character, and some music pecu liarly adapted to his charming talent.' Bet eTentano and Vialetti also appear in the opera ; and to give riot 1 ness to the whole, we are g'ai to find that Alboni hi s consented to take the contralto part. At the Royal Italian Opera, " Fra Diavolo" will be forthcoming ; in the meantime the "Traviata" and the ,6 Huguenots" will be repeated. THE PRINCESS'S—The company of the Princess's a! • busily eagagad in rehearsing the next Shakeperian re vival, the ".Merchant of Venice," in which, according to green-room report, will be exhibited real gondolas and real water. HAYMARKET.—Mr. Buckstone terminates his Beeson about the INh July, for the purpose of having his theatre renovated for the winter campaign, which wi 1 commence at the end of September. In the interval, it is probable that Mr. Buckstone and his company will make a "starring" excursion to the provinces. THE A DELPIII.—The programme selected for next Wednesday, the very last performance in the present theatre, will include the appearance of many Adelphi favourites, commencing with the farce "Our French Lady's Maid," in which the lessee and LiniSciaire and Madame Celeste perform.

IMPORTANT JUDGMENT TO AUCTIONEERS-OCIKENDEN p• RENLY. This was an action in which the plaintiff sued the do fendant to recover the amount of deposit forfeited by the defendant's neglect to complete the purchase of some property, and also to recover the deficiency on the re. sale, together with the expenses. It appeared that the plaint ff had put up for sale by auction a cottage and garden, which were knocked down to the defendant for 1201., under the usual conditions. The defend ant signed an agreement, but did nat pay a deposit, and ultimately he refused to complete the put • chase. The plaintiff resold the premises by auctioa for 1051, and sued the defendant to recover the deposit money, 241. ; the deficiency, 151. ; and the costs of re' sale, 9/. ss. ; and at the trial which took place before Mr. Justice Erle at Westminster, in Hilary term last, * verdict was directed to be entered for the plaintiff for these three sums. Subsequently a rule was granted to reduce the damages to 241. 55., being the amount of de' ficiency and, expenses of resale. The question WO whether the vendor in such a case was entitled to the deposit in addition to the deficiency and expenses on re' sale. It was admitted that, at all events, the vendor would be entitled to the amount of the deposit, but 3 was contended that if he chose to resell the property he could only recover the deficiency and expenses on re' sale. The condition on which the question turned was : "That if the purchaser shall fail to comply with these conditions the deposit money shall be actually forfeited to the vendor, who shall be at full liberty to resell the lot bi t public auction or private contract, and any deficiency Ur, may arise upon such resale, together with all expenses Al e tending the same, shall immediately after such woad ei s t be made good by such defaulter, and on xon-payolel l thereof such amount shall be recoverable by the vendor se and for liquidated damages, without the necessity of P r. ; viously tendering an assignment or other assurance to tt i defaulter, bat any increase of price that may be product at such second sale shall belong to the vendor." Lord Campbell, in delivering judgment, said it vO. was well settled at common law, following out the rul e of civil law, that pecuniary deposits on purchases O rs to be considered payment in part of the purchase-moot and not as a mere pledge. Theref ore' in this case, if t h e deposit had been paid the bala n ce on ly of the purobal money would have remained payable. The Coa t thought the plaintiff was only entitled to the differefl between the balance of the purchase-money on the fi r , h , sale and the money obtained upon the re-sale. I, judgment of the Court was that the verdict ought to 11 " reduced to 245. 9d. Judgment accordingly. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day') MARLBOROUGH STREET. BRUTAL ASSAULT ON A YEDIALX.—Mary Beard, 1 5 , rather ill-favoured woman, was charged with coromitit 6 the following assault on Mary Ann Gidden, the da O P 4 ter of a coffee-shop keeper in Compton-street, Soho. From the evidence of the prosecutrix, a g ood-lookt young woman, it appeared that the prisoner was 0 :a vent in the house, and that a quarrel having en° between the waitress and the prisoner, she (presecutr iaj sent the waitress for a constable.

On Satut day afternoon a hogshead of sugar Wog de s r vered to a carman earned Sears, from one of the sa l , warehouses in the West India Dock. Sears, a siol o l countryman, who was employed to drive a horse ! s cart with the sugar to Great Gadsden, received a wr it ;., pass to enable him to leave the dock, a delife note, and other passes. He had driven his b° r 4 and cart as far as Dunbar's office, in the West Indic-c °4 4 when the prisoner accosted him hastily, and said, ;i t) have got the wrong papers ; make haste back to, ; ir e dock—l'll take care of your horse and cart." n - ic believing that the prisoner had been sent f rom the o° , t ; pulled up at the side of the footpath, a n d ra n brio_%,.. the dock, where he ascertained that hi s p a pers ^ 1 ;0 correct.

GLADSTONE AND THE MINISTRY. Vire br, - ;0 son to expect, until within the last six hours, 01 '00 should have had the pleasure of announcing, h - /'0 week's number, an important accession to Lord D er cabinet. The fact was too important to be kept a °r ip - 0$ nor was there any desire to conceal it—that the c a :;iol' would gladly have received the adhesion of the 68 the member for the University of Oxford. Possessing ;;e0 double qualification of great efficiency in official da''ci. and pre-eminent ability in debate, there has been 11,11 ministration for a dozen years past which would net ;0 jot rejoiced to gain the assistance of Mr. Glaestone• o f is there, we believe, any solid, difficulty in the "s° l .; e nt junction on the part of Mr. Gladstone with th e pr that government. Hence during the preient week,' pa gentleman has seriously entertained the propos,. if it were possible for him to isolate himself , and to 13 . 11 , 6 regard solely to his own views and feelings , we bei;Bol4 that his accession to the cabinet of Lord Dab,' A be not bo delved another day.
