SPIRIT OP TIM PUBLIC JOURNALS.

The puldie will receive without surprise,-..under all
the elements .of opposition that were congregated against
Ministers,—the notification that they • were beaten last
night in a very full Home upon the question of which Sir
Usury Parnell gave notice on Friday,--namely, that the
Civil List then proposed should he subjected to a Select
Committee. The Hon. Gentleman moved for his Com-
mittee accordingly; he was opposed by the Chancellor of
the Exchequer, and on a division the numbers were—
With Ministers, and Against the Committee tot
Against Ministers, and for the Committee 03
We cannot speak decisively (Oho effect of such a division.
Sir R. Peel, on being asked by Mr. Haltom whether a
general retirement would he the coneequence, gave no
answer. Mr. Brougham considered the question as prem.'
tire, and was disposed to allow time for consideration, , It
isprobably one of thoee cases in which consideration cannot
supply much useful counsel. If the Duke of Wellington
and his colleagues cannot suddenly rally and defeat their
adversaries, they would act with more dignity to retire than
to be content to govern the nation under the controul of
a predominating opposition. The declaration against all
Reform, formidable enough 44 it was in itself, was rendered
yet snore ominous by the apprehension that it was meant
to cover also all other abuses and extravagancies, and to
protect the yet smoking remains of that system, by which
the nation has so severely suffered in its
,social comforts
and enjoyments, but of which system thewe Ministers were
not the author.. The suspension of the City feast almost
added derision to dislike, and the proceedinge in. Kent and
Seiner created terror. But many of those who swelled the
opposition of last night will look with great anxiety to the
formation of a Ministry opposed, in all its principles, to
that against which they voted,— Times.
The signal defeat of Ministers last nightie a sign of the
times, which it is imposoible to misunderstand. Sir. Henry
Parnell's motion for a Select Committee to inquire into the
detail* of the Civil List was carried by a majority of no
teas than twenty-nine, to the great horror of Ministers, who
were evidently as little prepared. for this melt as the Duke
of Wellington was for the indignation which the King's
Speech and his insoleot declaration against Reform have
excited throughout the country. The majority would have
been greater considerably, but for the circumstance of a
number of Members having been locked out while partaking
of refreshment, es owr readers.will see from . a list of some
of theta which we have given below. It is clear from the
language held by Ministers both last night and other nights
during the Session, that they are utterly unacquainted with
the present temper of the country. They speak as if the
resources of the nation were so abundant that the business
of a Minister was merely to discover. new channels of ex-
penditure. The Chancellor of the Exchequer said "he
would entreat the House to look at the Pension List, and
see bow much owner it was now than at former periods.
In the days of Mr. Burke, fixing the Pension List at
95,000/. was considered a reduction, and hailed as a mea-
sure of economy," But in the days of Mr. Burke the debt
did not amount to 800 millions. In .the: days of Mr.
Burke distress had not thriven the tenantry of extensive dis-
tricts to combine to suspend further payment of rents,
tithes, turd taxes, and the agricultural labourers were not
roaming about the country in bands, destroying property,
and throwing all who own it into the utruorst.consterna-
tine. The most industrious, hardworking peasantry of
,Europe have, by sheer misgovernment, totally changed their
character, and the law has become 4 dead letter. These are
not times for holding out precedents for prodigality. If we
lea teen less prodigal formerly we should have been IMO
embarrassed now ; and former prodigality having impaired
our meant, is the very best argument foepresent economy.
No man wishes that the alloWane.e to bus Majesty should
not he adequate 'to the maintenance of the Royal dignity.
Let, therefore, a sum be, once for all, set apart fur that
object. But there can be no good reason why material
branches of the nation*, expenditure should be mixed up
with the sixpences of the Sovereign, and thug a permanent
arrenyeatent of the Civil List, at the commencement of a
reign, should withdraw, not only the allowance to the So-
vereign, but various branches of stational expenditure,
ft UM time regular controul of Pediment, sad such arrange.
meat sir the exigenciee of time State may from tune to time
dement. The realm's% assigned by the Chancellor of the
Exchequer fur a contrary cause were of the most singular
character. "It appeared (he sail)) to he the opinion of
tome, that the Civil List ought to be separated into two

for the life of the Monate+, save only.the antoimt he men-
tioned. lie would put it to the House, whether it was
wire or prudent to make the regal authority an objeei of
reproach to ale ignorant and untlanhing. Let us only
look to tore impression to be made upon; the public, by
fixing in a precise form the personal and private essences
of the Monarch. If somewhat upwards of a million were
granted, and that souse of the public expenditure was de-
rived from that, it would not have the inconvenient and
dissolvatitageotor effect of fixing the ottentien on, and
placing beyond all doulot, the amount expended by the

Right Honourable Gentleman's ' plan of concealment
is lewdly so good es that of the infant which bides
its head in its nurse's apron or gown, conceiving
itself unseen, because it oannot see. The trickery is too

man for his age and country. But what a libel he con-
veys

the (,00,0001, bring the Monarch into obloquy, except
either the people, were unreaounable,, or the suns assigned

too largest , That, however, la a snloject for inquiry in a
Committee. (If course the people are net so unreasonable
as to suppose that they can {Dive a King, and a., Court, and

night was considered as a death-warrant to the Ministry.
MI sorts of conjectures were instantly efloat with teepee
to thee mounter in which their places would be supplied,—
Mitiletets certainly gave it cut that they were certain of
success in this case. They have also given out that they
will have a ntsjority on the question of Reform; Under
the circumstances of the country, if they do not resign, we
anticipate a very different division from dew which their
retainers pretend they will have. We queation - if, in '
times like the present, there will be found is majority suffi—

took, be evidently thought the most debateable of all, we
worthy of careful perusal. lie pointed out the dangets
of a Regency Council ; the rational fears to he appre-
boded from the influence of atnbitious individuals; the
unpopularity and invidiousness of such influence ; and,
finally, the complete identification of the mother ►.f
the Princess, who could not herself, in any event,

succeed to the Crown, with the interests of the infant
Queen. Ile showed._ that the precedents of 1751 and
1810 dill not apply to the case. The Duchess of Kent
was to be sole guardian of the child, and Regent of the
kingdom,- till her daughter was of lawful age, uncontrolled
by any body but the ordinary responsible Ministers of the
Crown ; and the only case excepted was that of a posthu-
mous child of her present. Majesty. In such a case, as it
might he presumed that Parliament could not immediately
or conveniently legislate, it was provided that her Majesty
was then to be placed, to all intents and purposes, in the
same situation with respect to her child that the Duchess
Of Kent now stood with respect to the Princess Victoria.
For any contingency during his Majesty's life, it was a,.
sinned that Parliament would be always able to proviil,
This plan, so far as the silence of Noble Lords can be in-
terpreted, seemed to give general satisfaction, Lord Eldon
alone saying he should reserve his opinion of its merits till
he was more instructed is the details. The stillness of
the House of Lords was strongly contrasted with the storm
with which Ministers were assailed in the House of Com-
mons. -There-they- have been utterly discomfitted and
defeated, Various have been the speculations as to
the power of the ttulce of Wellington with the new
Parliament. The question is now set at rest. In
this first trial of strength the Ministry have sustained
a total overthrow. The test of their influence was
the Civil List Already had the Chancellor of the
Exchequer opened his plan, stated reformations in

. . .
this branch of the public burdens, mystified its arrange-
ments, and taken credit for considerable reductions. It
would not do. Parliament could not understand, not-
withstanding the abundance of sophisms with which it
was assailed, that the " hereditary" revenues of the Crown
did not mean those which his Majesty took by inheritance
Duchy of Lancaster was yearned sfter ; an account
upon the score of reform was to be settled with the Duke,
and, in effect, a division took place, in which the Ministers
were left with a majority of twenty-nine against them.
We must refer our readers to the report of the debate
which led to this result. It will well reward the perusal.
It began by Sir Henry Parnell's moving an amendment
to refer the question of the Civil List to a select Com-
mittee up stairs, instead of one of the whole House.
Then came the Chancellor of the Exchequer's reply, and
those of other Members, an bath tides, whose arguments
and reasoning are lucidly represented in another part of
our Paper. Upon a division there appeared—
For Ministers 2.94

Against them
Majority against Ministers .--29

The reault, as mny he supposed, WO received with the

loudest aceLmations, and a Select Committee was named.
Mr. Ilubhouse then, very naturally and significantly,
asked Ministers whether, after this signal defeat, they
were prepared to go on with the business of the Govern:.
meat ? but no'answer was given. The majority would
have been swelled by the votes of nine More Members, if
they had not been accidentally abut out from the division.
If these Memberi, whose names will be found elsewhere,
had voted, the actual majority against Ministers would be
35. In other respects the proceedings of the House'were
not unimportant. Mr. St4nley asked Sir Robert Peel if
Mr. Bathurst, the son of the. President of the Council,
who had been last year voted out of a situation under
Government, leul not been appointed to the idlice of
Clerk of the Council—a sinecure of 2,6001. a year—
vacant by the death of Mr. Buller. The Right lion.
Secretary declared: his ignorance, not only of the alleged
appointment, but of the death of Mr. Buller. One of the
curiosities of the Ohioe upon the Civil List was, that
Mr. Calcraft declared he had not matte up his mind
whether or no he should support the Ministers ! Before
the important motion on the Civil List, a oonverention 'of
some interest arose upon a question put by Mr. 11. Sum-
ner to the Home Secretary with respect to the incendiary
proceedings now going on in the different counties. 'll e
Hon. Pentleman wished to know whether it was the
intention of Government to increase the power of the Ma-
gistrates in the present crisis, or whether it was considered
that their powers were already sufficient. Sir _Robert
Peel recommended : local vigilance above all things, and
stated that the present law authorised Magistrates to swear
in special ou-stables in anticipation of the commission of
lidony or riot. But though he could not disclose what
measures he was taking Ihr the detection of the of-
fenders, he pledged himself to support any proposition
which was likely to facilitate that object, whether by ins
creasing the power of Magistrates fur the time being, or
by any other mode of proceeding. All that passed is
worthy the attention of the reader.--Morning Herald.
Mr, Stanley last night put questitin to Sir Robert
Peel, on a eobject of bottle consequence at the preaent time
as illustrative of the economical character of Ministere.
One of the Clerks of the Council (Mr. Buller) had, he
said, died that thy, mullie asked if there was any intention
on Rho part of the Government to abolish his place, which
was •use'ess, although the possessor received 2,6001.
a-year. Sir R. Peel had not heard of the gentleman's death
until that moment, and had not therefore turned his wen-

tion to the subject. It appeared, however, from what af.
termini's transpired, that another Minister had been more
lucky—namely, Lord Bathurst, President of the Council ;
and that he had instantly appointed his son, Mr. Bathurst,
'to the, vacant sinecure. The names of ttvo gentlemen,
sons of Cabinet Ministers, Messrs. Bath** and Dundee,
muet be somewhat familiar to most of our readers, in con-
nection with a division of last year, which ousted them of
their eitrectmai But a defeat only sharpens their
dili-
gence. These gentlemen remind us of what travelers tell
us of the monkeys in the East, which are so expert at ap..
propriation, that even while the countrymen, armed with
a stick, is watching his store of provisions, one of them
will contrive to snatch part of it from him. A blow is
disregtualed. Before it can be repeated, the dexterous
has effected its purpose. These is no guarding

neral distress prevailing in that county.

RESIGNATION OF
MINISTERS ! !

The Loan CIIANCILLOR took his seat on the Woolsack,
at Ten Minutes to Five. The space below the Throne was
crowded to excess with gentlemen, principally Members
of the House of Commons.
The Duke of WELLINGTON entered the House at
five minutes before five, and took his seat as usual
on the Ministerial Benchei. In a very few minutes
afterwards he rose, and in an instant the most
profound silence prevailed. His Grace was very
hoarse, looked ill, and spoke in an alMost in.
audible voice. We understood hi►n to say..—" My Lords,
it is my duty to state to the House, that in conse►luence of
what occurred lastnight in the other House of Parliament, I
have thought it my duty to wait on his Majesty this
day, and to tender to his Majesty my resignation of the
office I hold. His Majesty has been graciously .pleased
to accept of the same, and I now hold the office only till
my successor is Appointed.

Lord TEYNHAM said that in consequence of what
had just fallen from the Noble Duke, he should withdraw
his notice of motion, and postpone it to another day.
Lord GROSVENOR seeing a Noble Lord (Earl
Bathurst) in his place, begged to ask a question relative
to the Office of the Cleris,4l the Council, which had be-
come vacant by the death of Mr. Buller. He had beard
that the Noble Lord bad filled up that office almost within
24 hours of the vacantly occurring, which statement be
could scarcely give credit to. The Noble Lord must
have known that at least it was doubtful whether
that office should be filled again or not, and
if he had really been aware of that doubt, it became
hint to have paused before he had proceeded to make u
new appointment. He wi4ted to know whether the ap•
puintment bad really been made.

- Earl BATHURST rose and said, " My Lords, I am
not going to enter into the question respecting the propriety
or non-propriety of filling that office, which became vacant
by the death of Mr. Butler—all I mean to say is that the
office did become vacant, and that it is now filled again,
the appointment having been made.....-(Burets of laughter
from one end of the House to the other.)
Lord WYNORD presented a R:titi,m front a parish in
Northumberland, against Negro Slavery.
The Duke of GLOUCESTER presented several peti-
tions to the same effect.

Their Lordship, moo at Twenty Minutes to Six o'clock.
