THE MEETING OF PAELIAMENT.—That very re-
spectable authority, denominated " Rumour," has been cir-
culating with his hundred tongues during the week a state-
ment as highly probable that Parliament would be called
together for the " Dispatch of Business" some week or two
before the intended day, namely, the 11th A November.
There is no authority whatever for this report, It is a mere
guess. The subject of a change in the day ori;inally named
has not been broached. It will be considerec fully at the
first meeting of the Cabinet on Friday next, the 15th inst.,
and the result will be published at the Privy Council to be
held at Windsor on the following Monday, the 18th. There is
no more reason for supposing that the Parliament would be
called together on an earlier day, beyond the impression that
very generally prevails that the discussions and preparations
for the funeral of the Duke of Wellington will naturally con-
sume a week or two of the time, already short enough, before
Christmas for the very important decision for which the new
Parliament is especially convoked. The question of a more
early meeting than was first arranged will therefore very
naturally arise. The arrangements for the funeral of the
Duke of Wellington cannot possibly be completed under a
fortnight, and every one feels that the time between the
commencement of the ceremonies, and the last sad scene that
will consign the illustrious hero to his final resting place on
earth, would be no fitting time for party conflict. It is im-
possible to foretell what decision the Cabinet will come to.
Parliament together; but we believe it will t no, and
that It is generally felt that an earlier day ought to be named fur
callingat the
old arrangement will stand. There is evidently no
haste to hurry on the important decision, so long deferred,
but which, with whatever reluctance, must come at last.--
