THE NETV MINISTER OF WAR.-TLIE
F.RENOII GOVERNMENT.

We can state, on the best authority, that a feeling of
disappointment and dissatisfaction, stronger than can be
expressed, has been caused by the appointment of the
Duke of Newcastle to the office of the Ministry of War.
The Emperor and his Government could hardly, we are
assured, believe the fact, when they were informed that
Lord Palmerston had been passed over. They made per-
fectly sure, and were delighted at the prospect, of the
noble lord's appointment to the new office. They consider
the Duke as much unqualified for the situation as Lord
Palmerston is fitted for it. But in addition to this, our
Premier is no favourite at the Tuileries, while the new
Minister of War is there looked upon as his right-hand
man.—iforning Adverti.ser.

GeE tT WESTERN ROYAL HOTEL.—This magnificent
establishment is now in complete operation, and is daily
crowded with visitors. Every bed during the entire
week has been occupied, and many have been disappointed
of sleeping accommodation. This early overcrowding is
no doubt due to the attractions at Ascot, so that a more
moderate demand on the ample capacities of the hotel
may be anticipated for some time to come. The general
arrangements are altogether excellent, while the Pfline
has
la all cases commanded approbation.
