LONDON, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 27.

Tun rumours yesterday were few respecting the
furniution of a government. hopeful excitement
has subsided, and a dolorous gloom pervaded political
circles, as if England was as incapable as France of
finding men to govern it. Lord STANLEY, it was said,
had required a prolongation of the time, and was
allowed till Friday. to soften and to weld his un-
promising and wipnable materials. Yet his lordship
was considered to have few hopes of either inducing
the country gentlemen to leave protection an "open'
quustion, 'or to get any or many of the Peelites to
embark with him in so rough a sea, and fur so little
purpose.
Thu speculator in future ministries was, there-
fore, compelled to look once more along the scattered
ranks of the lets: traders, where in truth !sigma
aught hut unanimity. With a great many the cruets
sums lIIIM/Vllll to a mere question of persons. And
the difficulty se Clll,l to lw not what course to follow
out, what principle* and measures to insist on, but
how to pack the crews of two vessels into one. In
order to begin fairly and calmly the iirl proposal is
to fling thu old esiptain overboard, without, at the
same t acquainting us who is to be the new.
Such is the cool proposition of the Times. Accord-
ing to this ready reservoir for uny malignity, which
a party on the rise may amuse to void un a party
falling, lord JOHN RI:SMELL is a great criminal :

Now, is it not disgraceful, that an English
„journal
of the lint circulation and repute should feel itself an
above every scruple of conscience, every feeling of
honour, every respect for consistency, that it thirst

weeks, of the sanw document and the same minister

tion the Times hounded on the clergy and the
laity, and the cabinet. And because, forsooth,
this has had the effect of alienating a score of
Irish supporters of the government, the Time.

that minister, whom ut the head of the public it
drove to annntit that very act, and adopt that very
whey, for which the rawritiee is demands:4i If u
rade Mita dial this, what should we cull him ?
Yet one man's fault scarcely implicates a
country-. Whereas a journal like the row
is considered us one repreawnting the country
in its consistency and timidity, as well as in its
opinion. And if so, what is the character of the
English public'
We shall not follow the long and formal string
of accusations which the Times brought yester-
day against that patnm in whom it saw no fault
till the day that he fell. We were never
*opponent of lord Jolly. We are as alive to
hi. Meets as to his merits. But W hen we recollect
hiy long careey his early struggles, not for plare.ll
which was then hopeless. but for the achievement 1
of those gnat measures of civil and religious liberty
which for ever must attach to and immortalise his
nano* we must own that we regard those flatterers
who licked this great minister's plate, and who now,
curt that they are, turn to buy and to bite at his
heels, with a feeling of contempt indeed for them,
but of indignant sorrow for the country whose
elianwter they stain.

actually gain 117 the change. If Lord STANLEY
and the protectionists have a chance of success, it
in the break up of the great liberal party, and
its not being efliciently led. The Tines, with its
wonted feelings of delicacy and justice. throws all
the blame of Sir ell t REES Woon's budget upon
Lord JOUN. And what it proposes is neither
more nor lets than to preserve and perpetuate in
power the whole dynasty of the GRETA, WOODS.

goat, his back laden with their crimes. We will not
