The Great Seal is to be put in Commission ; but
we believe the Commissioners are not yet finally

agreed upon.

Several new writs will be moved for this afternoon.
It is understood that a vacancy will be made for

Lord PALMERSTON.

The elevation of the Right Hon. C. GRANT to the
Peerage will appear in the Gazelle of to-morrow even-
ing, by the title (we presume) of Baron of Glenelg.

At the hour we went to press the first Cabine.
Council of the new Ministers was sitting.

The Foreign Ministers waited in state this after-
noon on Viscount PALMERSTON, being their first

visit since his accession to office.

Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S Address to the Electors of

Devonshire is a document which will be perused by
the British nation with the deepest interest. Coming
from such a quarter at such a moment it must be re-
garded as the manifesto of the new Administration—an
Administration called into existence under circum-
stances which, taken altogether, are without a parallel
in the history of the country. A daring, we should ra-

ther say, a desperate effort had been made by that faction
who have ever been the sworn enemies of all improve-
ment, and the sworn supporters of every abuse, to stran-
gle Reform while yet in its cradle, to crush the infant
Hercules before the attainment of that growth, and the
' development of those powers, with which they foresaw
it would be in vain to contend. They seized upon the
Government in defiance of every constitutional princi-
ple andprecedent, dissolved a House of Commons pos-
sessing in an unexampled degree the confidence of the
people, and pledged to Reform ; while they had
the assurance to aver that all this was done to
promote the cause of Reform, and to declare in
the face of the country and of the world, that
by some miraculous agency which they could not ex-
plain, they had, without sacrificing any of their former
opinions—without incurring the charge of apostacy—
without, in short, any stain upon their honour or cha-
racter, become reformers—become, from pure convic-
tion, the advocates of everything which up to that
hour they had condemned. Such po!it!ral Lase-
ness was never hcarJ of—never even dreamt of-- I

before. It met with its just reward. The indignant
feelings of an insulted nation were roused, and in spite
of all the bribery, all the intimidation, all the power of
the Crown, employed without scruple, and almost
without limit, to influence the electors, a House of
Commons was returned, which has hurled these un-
principled hypocrites from power, and replaced in their
seats the very individual men whom their low intrigues
had circumvented.

Such are the circumstances in which Lord MEL-
BOURNE'S Administration resumes its functions. The
outlines of that system of policy which it intends to
pursue are sketched by the Secretary for the Home
Department with a bold and able hand.
After a necessary and very unassuming allusion to his
own conduct as Leader of the Opposition, in which he
states that his first and main object was to take care that
the large measure, of reform in the National Institutions
contemplated by Lord MELBouRNE were not endan-
gered or obstructed by the late Ministry, the Noble
Lord proceeds to detail forcibly and concisely the prin-
ciples upon which he acted, to explain the views he
entertains on the principal questions connected with
Reform, and to contrast them with those of Sir Ro-
BERT PEEL and his late associates.

The Municipal Corporations, as might have been
expected, occupy a prominent position in the Noble
Lord's address. Instead of the equivocal declaration
of the late Premier, that he would take the report into
consideration, which left him quite at liberty to give
that important question the "go by," should that course
best suit his purpose.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL speaks out boldly, and tells
the people of Great Britain that the true remedy for
the violations of trust, /17rv7r:-:%,:is o!'
.;£ clia,-lable funds, political jobbing, and, other delin-
quencies committed by self-elected Corporations, is
to place these bodies under vigilant popular controul—
"to adapt to them the principle of free election,
known to our ancient laws, and established in the Re-
form Act."

The next subject adverted to by the Noble Lord is
the grievances of the Dissenters, and here he declares
his opinion that Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Dissenters'
Marriage Bill, though founded on liberal principles,
must be altered and improved before it will be accep-
table to those for whose benefit it was intended, and
states that the best solution of the difficulties attending
this complicated question, is a civil register of births,
deaths and marriages. This is what the Dis-
senters contend for ; and this only, we are sure,
will satisfy them.

Church Rates, an impost justly pronounced by Lord
J. RUSSELL, at once a grievance to the Dissenter
and an injury to the Church, are to be entirely abo-
lished.

In carrying English Church Reform into effect, we
are happy to find, as indeed we could not doubt, that
there will be in the present Ministers no lurking de-
sire to keep alive the seeds of abuses which they PRO-
FESS to destroy.
The Reform of the Irish Church is to be based
on the memorable Resolution of the Noble Lord, by
which the House of Commons declared, that when
the wants of the English Church have been provided
for, the surplus ought to be devoted to the purposes of
general education in Ireland.

After thusstating his views and those of his colleagues,
we think the Noble Lord is well warranted in saying
that " he did not intend that the Reform Act should
be a mere toy in the hands of the people, without
benefit to themselves or their posterity."

We direct the attention of our readers to the very
interesting debate which took place in the House of
Lords on Saturday afternoon. The statement of Lord
MELBOURNE, respecting the Irish Church, is most
gratifying.

We have received the whole of the Paris papers of
Saturday, which announce the triumph of Ministers

on M. BIGNON'S amendment on the first article of the

American Indemnity Bill. This amendment, which
restricted the grant to twelve millions of francs to ena-
ble the Government to re-commence negociations with
the United States, was, notwithstanding the powerful
speech of M. BERRYER in its favour, negatived by a
majority of one hundredand fourteen votes. This division
may be regarded as decisive of the fate of the Bill which
will certainly be carried, although not without an article
requiring that no part of the debt be paid before America
has offered an apology to France for some passages con-
tained in the PRESIDENT'S Message. This conces-
sion, so important in the opinion of all Frenchmen,
brother Jonathan has too much good sense to refuse.
He knows right well, that no person will dare to ques-
tion his courage for soothing the irritated vanity of a
capricious people, besides which, he is more intent on
having justice done him, than in the exhibition of
puerilities, which some are foolish enough to class
among points of honour.

M. MAUGUIN has roundly charged the American
Government, through the connivance of France, with
resting many of its claims on forged documents. The
Messager, which we have just received, attaches great
importance to this charge, upon which it comments in
terms of much warmth. But do the facts of the case
warrant all this severity ? An unknown individual
writes to M. MAUGUIN, stating, " that if he will
examine the original papers produced in support of the
American claims, it will be easy for him to discover in
it a falsification, for there is in the texture of the paper

itself a date subsequent to the date of the statement."
This is the whole charge. The Hon. Deputy moves
for the production of the documents here alluded to ;
they are not produced, and on this shadow of a shade
of an unsupported, unauthenticated discovery, he
founds a charge implicating the honour and the honesty
of the Governments of France and the United States.
The justice of such a course as this cannot be de-
fended, and it is still worse considered in the light of a
party manoeuvre. Why did not the writer of the
letter come forward? Such authorities might be
produced in favour of any assertion whatever. Mi-
nisters indeed would be deserving of blame, if they
withhold the evidence of their own justification
in such cases as this ; but here M. de It IGNY de-
clared that such a document as that referred to by M.
MAUGUIN never had an existence. This declaration
is surely more worthy of credit than a statement to the
contrary put forth by an anonymous writer.
Marshal SOULT has sold the KING three of the
finest pictures in his collection for 500,000 francs.

It is reported that his Majesty was an unwilling pur-
chaser, but that SOULT complained so much of his
poverty that the Sovereign had no choice left. The
payment is to be made in five annual instalments, as
the whole sum would exceed what could be safely
charged at once upon the Civil List. As Marshal
SOULT is reported to be exceedingly rich and
excessively avaricious, this bargain has greatly dimi-
nished his popularity in Paris. The subject of the
three pictures are—" The Virgin," by Murillo—" St.
Peter in Prison"—and the " Man cured of the Palsy."
The French Journals contain letters from Constan-

tinople to the 26th of March. It is stated in these
letters that the PORTE continues to augment the fleet,
which is now nearly in a condition to sail. A
Corresrandent of a Paris Journal in speaking of this
announcement, writes
to 'Tripoli is not a sufficient motive for sending
out a fleet of fifteen ships of the line and a frigate, and

the Ambassadors of France and England have there-
fore required some explanation about this arma-
ment, which is the most considerable that the
PORTE has fitted out for a long time." The
Turco-Russian Council has declined giving any expla-
nation, merely answering by the REIS EFFENDI, that
as the powers having a naval force in the Levant in-
tended to increase it, it was natural that the SULTAN
should employ his as he thought necessary for main-
taining his dignity and independence.

The Ambassadors have written to their Govern-
ments, neither of them having instructions to go fur-
ther ; and for the most part they are wholly without
instructions. Lord PONSONBY had received notice
that three ships of the line and two frigates were go-
ing to be sent from England to Malta, and that the
Admiralty had already sent to that island light vessels
and transports laden with ammunition.
We give the above on the authority of the French
Journals just received. In a few days the statements
therein contained will be, if true, officially authenticated.
The Court of Peers has given way to the Advocates
of Paris. The prisoners have obtained leave to choose
their own advocates at the approaching trials.

BouasE THREE O'CLOCK.—It was expected that the rejec-
tion of the amendment of M. Bignon with 114 votes would
have had some influence on the rentes ; in fact, before the
opening of the Bourse, they were done at 82f. 27 c. ; but
they have receded to 82f. 10c. to 15c. present price.
In the Spahish stock there is very little business doing ; the
prices are the same as yesterday. lam informed that the
commission sitting on the arrangement to be made on the Dif-
fer& consists of seven members, of which-Ist, three are to as-
similate them to the Cortes bonds ; 2d, to allow them two-
thirds active debt and two-thirds passive ; and 3d, two to assi-
milate them to the Coupons of the Cortes, which in either
event will give them the following value, at the present prices
—lst, at 49 percent. ; 2d, at 34 per cent. ; 3d, at 31 per cent.
Two amendments have been proposed in the Chamber ; it
is not likely the first article will be voted to-day.

We have received Brussels and German Papers.
On the 20th instant (this day) the Estates of Lower
Austria meet to take the oaths of allegiance to the
reigning EMPEROR. The expected trials for political
offences by the Peers of France are exciting the
greatest interest at Vienna. Several of the Nobility
are preparing to visit Paris, to be present to witness
so extraordinary a proceeding. The intelligence from
Greece is highly favourable.

The Brussels Papers contain no intelligence of any
importance. The QUEEN is slowly recovering.

The latest intelligence from Lisbon, which is up
to the Bth instant, contains nothing important. There
had been a trifling disturbance, and a personal attack
on the Duke of PALMELLA, on Sunday the 29th of
March, in consequence of some absurd calumnies
which had been spread against him, and some of the
Ministerial members were assaulted ; but the arrival of
the military restored tranquillity, and the funeral of
Prince AUGUSTUS, on Tuesday the 31st, passed off
quietly.

On the 2d inst. a Secret Session of the Cortes was
held to consider the succession, and other urgent topics.
It is said that Prince AUGUSTUS requested the QUEEN
on his death-bed to marry his younger brother, Prince
MAXINIILIAN, who is nearly 17. The QUEEN has
somewhat recovered from the shock caused by the
death of her Consort. Both the capital and provinces
are perfectly tranquil.

New York Papers to the 24th of March have been
received. They contain some notice of the present
condition of the South American States. It appears
that the province of Manubi has suffered by the
entrance of 300 troops- belonging to Flores, against
whom the inhabitants have declared war. On the
26th of November 160 of them were killed.

The Statesmen of New Grenada arc promoting

The Manchester Reformers are nobly coming for-
. ward in the cause of Reform. No sooner did these
resolute, high spirited men hear that the Tories in-
tended to club a purse for the purpose—in the event
of his accepting office—of ousting Lord .T. RUSSELL
from Devonshire, than they instantly set about a sub-
scription, 'and in the course of a few hours amassed a
sum of 500/. to defray the expenses of the Noble
Lord's election. This, we suppose, is the re-action
which the Tories have of late been so much talking
about ! This is the return to Conservatism of which
a few days since the Morning Post spoke with such
confidence I It will be a long time ere Manchester or
any other great town, where the spirit of Reform is
well understood and appreciated, subscribes 5001. to
aid the election of a Conservative. It may subscribe
as much, or even more, to keep him out, but assuredly,
never to put him in, to Parliament. No, no. The
Tories have nothing but their purse to rely on.
They have long since lost all moral power over the
people. They have been tried and are found wanting
—wanting in principle—wanting in capacity—want-
ing in every thing that should characterize a great
party. It is infinitely to the credit of the clear-headed
Manchester folks, that they have been the first to tes-

tify their approbation of the late Ministerial changes.
Their example will work wonders. The 5001. sub-
scription will not be confined to them. Other towns
will, no doubt, follow the same example, and give Lord
ROLLE the opportunity of regretting that he ever
permitted his 1,0001. to quit its safe retreat at his
ba'nkers, for the unavailing purpose of securing the re-
turn of a Conservative Member for Devon.

At a meeting of the Nottingham Electors, held last
week, it was unanimously agreed that a communication
should be made to a leading friend of Sir J. C. 1-I0B-
HOUSE) to the effect that the Meeting deemed his late
domestic loss a nz‘7cHtv of his per-
sonal attendance at the hustings ; and that in the event
of his accepting office, he might rely on the certainty of

his being returned for the borough. This resolution—
the respectful delicacy of which we cannot too warmly
commend—was passed at a meeting of Radical Re-
formers ; a class of men whom the Tories have always
been in the habit of holding up to ridicule, as wholly
destitute of anything like feeling or common sense I
The reason of this--they judge of others by themselves.
As a party, they 'are notoriously destitute of principle
and delicacy, and being conscious of these deficiencies,
very naturally seek to attribute them to others.
