LONDdN, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1852,

Curiosity has at length been satisfied as to the
intentions of the DERBY-DISRAELI Government.
There can no longer be any misapprehension in
regard to the nature of the measures contem-
plated by the present Administration. hey
have now been formally submitted to the consTide-
ration of the country by the Rig CHANCELLOR of the ExcnE ht Hon. the
extravagant to assert ,QuEn. It would not be
, that never was there a
financial statement more eagerly looked forward
to by the population of the United Kingdom.
To it exclusively has been deferred every one of
the more important official explanations, When-
ever Ministers have been puzzled by any impor-
tunate querist, the reply has invariably couched
itself in a reference of the inquirer to the pro-
jected Budget of 1852-1853—the Budget before
the community, through the masterly exposition
of the state of affairs yielded by the leader of the
lower branch of the Legislature. Expectations in
reference to this occurrence had been excited
more or less throughout the nation ever since
the- advent of the Earl of DERBY and his sup-
porters to power during the course of last
February. It was only natural, therefore, that
an unusual degree of interest was excited on the
appearance of Mr. Disnazia last evening in the
House of Commons, advancing from the entrance-
door, with the red box of office in his hand, and,
we were rejoiced to observe, with an evidence of
his health having undergone Va manifest improve-
ment. It was yet more natural, that, imm
diately on his rising, the attention of his auditors
should become noticeable in the breathless silence
of the Representatives. The Right Honourable
Gentleman prefaced his statement by reminding
the House that his Budget was brought forward
tinder very peculiar circumstances. He asserted,
moreover, that he must claim from his hearers
the reservation of their judgment until they had
allowed him to lay

There'telided policy of her MAJESTY'S Government.
