NEW WRIT FOR THE CITY OF LONDON.
ADDRESS OF LORD JOHN RUSSELL.

The creation of a War Minister has led to other
Ministerial changes. Lord John Russell is no longer
without office. He has become Lord President of the
Privy Council, vice Lord Granville, who, it is un-
derstood, will be Colonial Secretary, vice the Duke
of Newcastle, now Minister of War. Sir George
Grey has been mentioned as probable Colonial
Minister ; but this arrangement would not provide
for Lord Granville. The position of Mr. F. Peel may
be affected by the cha► ges now made. Mr. Hayter
last night moved that a new writ do issue for the City
of London. The announcement caused by this notice.
coupled with the fact that the President of the Council
has generally been a peer, excited the general inquiry,
"Is Lord John Russell going to the upper house I"
His address to the electors of the City settles that point.

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF LONDON.
"Gentlemen,—Her Majesty having been pleased to con-
fer upon me the office of President of the Council, my seat
in Parliament has become vacant.
"In requesting you to replace me in the honourable po-
tion of one of your representatives, I cannot feel it neces-
sary to explain to you my past conduct.
" There is no vote which I have given which I have not
give openly in the face of the world—no speech which I
have made which has not, at least in its substance, been're-
peated to the public by a watchful and intelligent press.
"Her Majesty's Ministers are engaged in the conduct of
a great struggle. A mighty military power seeks to overswo
Europe, and pretends to set aside the verdict of the civi-
lised world. We have stood against this encroachment,
and hope to check its further progress.
" This contest has absorbed the attention of the people
of this country. We all desire a solid, durable, and hon-
ourable peace.
" Impressed with the necessity of carrying on the war
till such a peace is established, I solicit the honour of
your support, and the continuance of that confidence which
it is my pride to have enjoyed for a period of thirteen. years.
