We are glad to find that the Paper most adverse
to Mr. Pt rT, speaking of his Plan for recruiting
the Army, which v, as brought forward last night
so the oise olCom nons, says, that " though some
of the olikttionable pat ts of it as first proposed are
omitted, much yet remains that may give rise to
discussion." II is impossible not to admire this
moderate language in the quarter alluded to, or not
to consider it as A strong proof of the wisdom of
the measure; for otherwise, instead of saying, with
such an appearance of liberal candour, that " much
yet remains which may give rise to discussion," the
Paper in question would have doubtless been prodi-
gal indeed in its epithets of reprobation and con.
tempt.

The Opposition wags-are witty upon what they
call a Ministerial " round of congratulatory din-
ners." - They have no objeCtion to those dinners in
another quarter, which they would fain stigmatize
with the imputation- of Party, though it wou;d be
highly indecent to consider them in any ether light
than as the result of a princely and hospitable
spirit,

--Mrs. JORDAN, with her usual liberality, means
to exert her great talents in annual support of Mr.
LACEY, a Gentleman well known in the Theatrical
World. Mrs. BILLINGTON, much to the credit of
her feelings, has signified her wish to follow this
laudable example.

If Mr. BOLTON of Birmingham were not well
known for hisloyalty, he might be set down as one
of the gieatest Republicans that ever lived, as he has
c n rived an engine which removes two royal Heads
at a single stroke.
