so worthily the bead, to aceomplish big desired pm-
pose. Whigs, it is well known, are never over-
scrupulous when the allurements of place are 'pre-'
sewed to their consideration, and` Lord Grey, well
nformed in this respect, saw at once in the actuat-
ing motives of Whiggism, the ready means of relief
from his enibarrassmtnts. Accordingly his Lordship
letermined upon overcoming all obstacles, by naming
Quell men as he knew from long experience would ac-
cept official situation on any terms, and almost fumy
say pas ty. The consequence is, that the new Prern;et
has ,:uhmitted to the degrading necessity of filling
op the various offices in a manner which not even

the difficulties we early foresaw would hove in-
!lured us to deem possible under any circ►imstances.

It is said that Sir Jamns Scauwer will be appointed to the

The difficulties sttendant upon the foimation of

the new Ministry twill; been thus hopefully sur-
mounted, those, of a more formidable nature, which
must obstruct its progress, become the next cor-
•iderution. Parliamentary Reform, the state of the
Currency, and the protection to be afforded to
British Agriculture, are the subjects which most
prominently present themselves, •Lord Grey, to
begin with the question which trap tends every
other in importance, is pledged, not by the thought-
less expressions merely of ardent and inconsiderate
youth, not by the uniform tettour merely of his lan-
guage and conduct throughout his political life, but
by a solemn declaration in Parliament, which is yet
scarcely a weelc old, to employ whatever power he
may possess to effect some change or other in the
constitution of the House of Commons. From
this he cannot swerve without forfeiting his
reputation as a man and his popularity as a
Minister. He being• Premier, something► to
begin . with in the career of Parliamentary Re-
form must be proposed and supported by the
whole influence of Government, or the Administra•

tion will at once become an object of scorn and dis-
gust to the country—a jest and bj-Nord of every
party—a monument of stupendous and revolting
insincerity. This prominent and essential feature
of the political character of the Noble Lord repels
from him, of coarse, all those alto inherit the prin-
ciples of the late Mr. Canning, all whose principles
are opposed to the rommencerrient of an •innovation
Of which they cannot foresee the end, all who dislike
the animal, not cn account cf its size but its species.
In the second place, Lord Grey is, or at least
during the last. Scssson of Parliament he loudly
declared that he was, prepared to re-open the ques-
tion of the Currency. This disposition he shares in
common with many of the persons whose principles
and interests must absolutely compel them to oppose
a reforming Minister, and with very few persons
indeed to whom a reforming Minister can be accept-
able. Mr. Attwond, the Banker, and the leader-of
the Birmingham Union, wo believe, the single
Statesman of any mink or likelihood in all England
whose opinions on the two questions of.fteform and
Currency coincide with those of the Noble Lord;
and it is indeed rather surprising, considering the
great number and variety of projects ' intended to
assist his Lordship in the construction of his Admi-
nistration, that the name of this very re, pec.able gen-
tleman should have been so entirely overlooked. -
Then on the equ My important question of the
foreign corn trade, the Noble Peer tr, as becomes
him, a resolute and determined prwector of British
agriculture. In the judgment of LC:ord Grey, an e
(wive legislative check to the importation of fos
reign grain is essential to the .welfare of the country
and to the interests of his order, and he is " deter-
mined to stand or fall with the order to which he

belongs." The sentiment is no doubt honourable in
the highest degree to the Noble Lord's judgment
and patriotisin; but, unfortunately for Jim, the. host
of Liberals, whose efforts contributed so powerfully
to open to him the road -to dice, and upon, whose
aid and support in dice his reforming principles and
pledges leave.him in a great degree dependent, hold
this language of his, and the policy to which it re-
fers, and the whole class of aristocratic feelings
Which it prt-claims, in utter contempt and detests.
tion, We have here given but tsfeeble and imperfect
sketch of the &trinities by which Lord Grey must
be beset on the very threshold of his labours. Bow
much of reform the Administration of Lord Grey
can agree to repose this year is the first question
for them to ask themselves, and here they will'find
how difficult it is to be. unanimous. But this (lift •
eulty is.. nothing in comparison with those which
follow. The question is progressive, and are they
to be progressive too. if they. perform so much in
the course of this Session of Parliament, how much
are they to concede to the loud demands of the real
and substantial Reformers in the next Session, and
the next, and the next ? There can be no end to
the internal emturrassnients, no cessation to the

intestine strife, of an Administration which sets
out upon the principle of Reform. Then the
Church ? How is any Administration which Lord
Grey can he expected to form, to dispose of its
friends in Pailiament, or to do without them,
who are determined to invade the rights and pro-
perty of the. Church ? Lord Grey is, no doubt,
deter Mined to resist any such invasion. This, as
he is a shrewd and sensible man, is a nece.sary C9/1.
sequence of his attachment to " the order to which
•he belongs." But let him count upon his fingers—
the lingers of one hand will be mote than enough—
the number of S‘atesmen who will zealously concur
with him in his project of Parliammury, Reform,
and agfin zealously concur with him in resisting the
spoliation of the Church. No man can look at the
slate of parties in England at this moment, and re-
gard the consequences it seems likely to produce,
without being convinced that those eminent nun
who have heretofore been honoured by the title of
the conservative party, have, in their foolish, obsti-
nate, and criminal resentment, sown the seeds of a
bitter harvest of regret for tilen"elves—of confu-
sion and calamity for their country. May the pre-
sent awful aspect of Asks recall them to reason,
justice, and patriotism I May the dark menace
which hangs over their country and themselves,
and which they have madly invoked, operate as a
salutary %veining, and induce theM, if there be yet
time, todeprecateand avert the infliction 1....A/mug
