Lord PALMERSTON-81r, then can be so doubt that
this subject tei on of the &snit imponaner, sad on folly
doser ring the attsathe seasidsratioa of the holm. At the
same time, however *sidle the prop sitioa may be of the
appoiatmoat of a minister of Justin I think that
any of than who have adopted 'the nouns have
perhaps not mad. to themeolves a soficisoCy ct ax ides of
the (anodes' whines.* a minister would ban to purer's-
sad that soon more minutely joie' Into it they m*ht had
greater difloshiss than at first sight pines% themselves to
view. Ido ace, however, man to say that suck sa ap-
pointment may not possibly be advisable, but I think it is
me that ought to to well cossidersd before the hors oases
to a moisten, ellinalag potitively lad at cute that such
aa Waco °old be created. Now the boo. and baron gra-
&mos who spoke hat but out cc tho other aids (Mr.

Now, Is mud to the first two, it is very easy to say that a
minuet of justice would prsv.nt parliament from thing
late erica* ia meanns that pass through the two hews
of
p wheaten. We hen heard the story, 'blab is not a
eery cos as., about the peaky of transportalea, half
plug one way, sad half the other. No doubt there an

usher coallieting to other fain og swum, or errors by

Wok hum doubt may be entertained windier the sppeint-
meat of a member of the government, whose duty it might
ha more o9nially to attend to those satten,
wield be seient to purest altogether the occurrent(' of
she mistokes. But it ca impossible that this house and the
ether Mew esi parliament should be riled spa to abdicate
their hanstiems, and individual members wield sot yield
their own opinion implicitly at Vs* dictum of tbe 'Nosy fa
