the Church. The public will admire the propriety
, of the selection. The condition of the people of
Boughton, the Ville of Dunkirk, and Herne-hill, the
residents of Sir EDWARD'S own neighbourhood,
and the well-instructed children of the Cathedral of
Canterbury, being the model to which it is very
desirable to make the whole working popu-
lation of England conform, only taking
care to allow no other fanaticisers but those of the
Established Church to have access to them ; while
the knowledge of the Oxford Doctors, represented
by the Honourable Commissioner for settling the
Tanjore claims, is conceived to be just sufficient,
and of the right kind, for all the gentlemen mer-
chants and opulent classes, including lawyers, phy-
sicians, engineers, merchants, manufacturers, &c.
Great advantages to the Church are expected from
thus modelling the gentry by Oxford, and the people
by the Kentish peasantry. The only objection we
have heard stated to the scheme is that the Oxford
Baronet ought to have the precedence, and be Pre-
sident, but that objection is satisfactorily answered
by the statement, that there will be more difficulty
in modelling all the working classes on the Herne-
hill people, than in modelling the opulent classes on
the Oxford Doctors, as they have a natural ten-
dency that way. Moreover, it is said that the
greater number of the poorer classes, as well as the
greater difficulty of his task, entitle the representa•
tive of Canterbury Cathedral to the highest place.
This nice scheme for drilling the people into order
and obedience is happily frustrated by the spirit ex-
hibited by her Majesty.
It is confidently stated that such was the avidity
of the Tory ladies for office that they insisted on
a universal turn out. Nay, some of them
went so far as to insist on ordering not only the
dinner, but the guests for the Royal table ! Hap-
pily for the country, the Royalty of England
would not brook such indignity, and the dreams
of yesterday have vanished with the winds--some
say to Northumberland.

Lord Lyndhurst had made arrangements yester-
day to take his seat on the Woolsack, at three
o'clock, and the Lord Chancellor was ready to give
up the seals. Great was the disappointment of the
alien Lord, at learning before the hour arrived,
that he was not to have them.

A Cabinet Council will be held to•day at
,welve o'clock.

Whatever may be Sir Robert Peel's own wishes
he could not resist the leech-like propensities
of his hungry followers. The Hertfords, the
Northutnberlands, the Rodens, &c. &c., refused to
support him unless he outraged the feelings of his
Sovereign, and the poor humble instrument of the
aristocracy was obliged, against his own judgment,
we hope, to violate the character of a gentleman.
Poor man, he is to be pitied.

The Duke of Northumberland, according to a
statement made in the Times a few days ago, was
about to put a palisade at the back of his garden,
and so open a view of that and of Northumberland
House to the public. The flattering vista is, however,
speedily destroyed. A new wall, at least quite as high
as the old one, 111._ 'yen run up. Had the Tories
succeeded the gardens would probably have been left
open, to catch a little popularity ; their affecting
sorrows are now walled out from public view.
CAUSES OF SIR ROBERT PEEL'S RESIGNA-
TION. —Our readers are already aware that the Duke of
Wellington was sent for by her Majesty on Wednesday.
His Grace declined, on account of age and infirmity, to take
upon himself the formation of a Ministry, but recommended
Sir Robert Peel to her Majesty's confidence. Sir Robert
was accordingly sent for ; and, in his interview with the
Queen, her Majesty expressed, we believe, without re-
serve, her regret at the change which had become ne-
cessary ; but at the same time intimated her
readiness to confide to the Right Hon. Baronet the power
of forming an Administration. In discussing the arrange-
ments with Sir Robert Peel, the Queen intimated that,
though she claimed no share in any political appoint-
ments, yet that she should expect to have the nomination
of the Ladies of her Household, and the female attendants
on her person. To this proposition Sir Robert objected,
and demanded complete dominion in the Palace ; and this,
forsooth, under the pretext that such a sacrifice of her feel-
ings was necessary to satisfy the country. that her Ministers
thoroughly enjoyed her Confidence. Her Majesty at once
resisted this exaction with becoming spirit, and a corres-
pondence subsequently took place between the Queen and
Sir Robert, which ended in the resignation, by the Right
Hon. Baronet, into her Majesty's hands, of his authority
to form a Government. The Queen then summoned Lord
Melbourne to advise with her in this emergency, and in
compliance with the wishes of her Majesty, his Lordship
consented again to conduct the Government—and we can
positively announce that the Melbourne Administration is
estored. —Morning Chronicle.
