THE MINISTRY.--InNuARY 22, 1528.

When, by a great national calamity the
country was deprived of that Nobleman's ser-
vices, Mr. CANNING and Mr. HUSKISSON did
uot separate from their other colleagues in the
Administration. On the contrary, they would
willingly and cordially have acted with them.—
But these gentlemen thought proper to throm up
their places, and Mr. CANNING and Mr. Hus-
KISSON were left alone to assist his MAJESTY
in the re-construction of a Government. We
believe that Mr. HUSKISSON has declared him-
self to belong to no party ; but to be willing to
join any set of men who have the true interests
of their country at heart. But if the fact were
otherwise, he might naturally enough be expected '
to indulge predilections for the . friends with
whom he has been connected during the greater
portion of his political life.
Mr. PEEL has now returned to office. It
was his own fault that he ever quitted it. He
declined to serve in Mr. CANNING's Admini-

stration, but he did not oppose it ; por do we
believe that he would have opposed that of
Lord GODERICH. What, therefore, we ask,
can be more reasonable and consistent than his
wish to be assisted by the first Statesman in the
country, in whose opinions and principles on
every political question, except one, he entiroly
concurs?

At the same time it must be owned that Mr.
PEEL'S conduct is not free from blame. His
present eagerness for Mr. HUSK EssoN's co•
operation discovers his prudence, and something
more. It chews how very slender were his
grounds for dividing with Mr. CANNING. Had
lie remained in office with that lamented States-

man, the KING would have been saved frolin
much distraction, and the country would have
been largely benefited. The Duke of WE L
L INGTON would have supported Administra-
tion ; and the Corn Bill would have been carried.

SPANISH NEWS.

PERPIGNAN,Duc. 27.--The :refugee agraviados,
who bad been sent to Albi and Avigeon, are leaving
the places which had been assigned them by the
French Government, and are daily seen in band
traversing the department on their return to Spain.
Buzoms himself (Jeps del. Estangs), who had re-
ceived a very hospitable reception' here, after having
accepted a gratuity from Goveniment of 600 francs in
order to enable him to repair to Pans, has taken a
contrary route; and on that day fixed for his depar- '
tete, instead of following the road to l‘ai bonne, he
- has directed his journey towards French Cerdague,
and from thence, passing by, Osseja, lie has rejoined
his old companions in the steep mountains of Bor-
rada, about a leage from Berga, from whence he
issue.; his orders to all his followers scattered among
the mountains.

General Monet, on his part, is using the greatest
activity in extirpating from Upper Catalonia all the
seeds of revolt and sedition. One of his moveable
columns encountered on the Bth inst., between Polls-
Fourgells and Val d'Aro, a party of the disaffected,
of which it took 29 prisoners, amongst whom was a
monk. A part of them were sent to Gerona, and
the rest embarked for Barcelona.
The presence of the Count d'Espagne, the terror
of his name, and the numerous troops which are dis-
tributed id the principality, and chiefly in Upper
Catalonia, are sufficient to keep down the restless
and turbulent spirits in that part of the province;
but it is to be feared that this factitious repose may
soon be disturbed, and that a revolt, promoted by
secret agents, may again destroy the tranquillity of
this pat t of the peninsula. The late elections, which
have given new life to France, have cast dismay into
the Cabinet of Ferdinand. Calomarde sees nothing
in the newly-elected members but violent Repub-
licans, enemies of the Throne and the Altar; and
we are assured that the chief of the Apostolicals has
said, that if the French Ministry should be changed,
the King would not delay his departure from Bar-
celona, which would necessarily bring about the in-
surrection and revolt of the whole province. Barce-
lona, when relieved from the French troops, would
offer to the azgraviados a rallying point, which
might embroil all Spain. It is to be hoped, that if
fresh troubles should break out in our neighbour..
hood, the new Ministry will not be the dupes of the
Apostolicals, and that France will act as a great na-
tion which knows its duty and its dignity; and that
if she should again expend her treasures for the re-
storation of tranquillity in the peninsula, it will not
be for the gratification of the Jesuits and the congre-
gations.

BERNE, JAN. B.—The Russian Government, con-
sidering the part which several foreign students have
taken in various revolutionary intrigues, has just re-
commended its Ambassadors in foreign countries,
and consequently its Legation in Switzerland, to
use the greatest precaution in delivering passports,
especially to tutors and to servants, who intend to
go to Poland and Russia. Their conduct and their
capacity must be perfectly
well known to the Am_
b Those who intend assadors.to seek employmentas tutors in private families, will also have to Un-
dergo a particular examination in the North.
(From the Gazelle de Frame, dated Sunday, Jan. ‘2o.)s
ODEssA, Dec. 18.—The north wind still hinders
u, from receiving any news direct from Constanti-
nople, but we every day see vessels leave, our port
laden with gram and flour for the supply of the ca-
pital of Turkey, Ivhieh appears surprising, since a
rupture between our Government and Turkey is
considered as probable. A company of French,
Sardinian, and Austrian merchants, %vlio are some-
times at Constantinople and sometimes here, has
contracted with the Turkish Government for' the
supply of the capital. The ships employed tier this
service are almost all Sardinians.

The cold weather has rendered our intercourse
with St. Petersburgh very rapid, and all the ac-
counts which we receive from that city announce
war as inevitable, and speak of the journey of the
Emperor to the army, who, perhaps, may go further
than is supposed. But we have been so often de-
ceived in our conjectures for some years past, that

(FRO3I A CORRESPONDENT.)
We earnestly hope that the Ministry is at
last at'asted on a solid and permanent basis—
and on this assumption we shall offer a few re-
mrks on the events of the last ten months ;—a
period unprecedentedly fertile in political fluctua-
tion. In that brief interval, the extinction of
three consecutive Administrations has been wit-
nessed by the public. Two Governments have
fallen by the death of their respective leaders ;
and a third has perished by the weakness or the
treachery of some of its own members.
Charges so frequent and so recent, are apt to
create an apparent, if - not a real, • confusion in
the relations of party ; and to this cause We must
ascribe the insinuations which are levelled against
Mr. HusKlssoN for continuing in office with
the New Administration. His situation is, in-
deed, widely different from that of the men who
have again returned to place. They may be,
perhaps, called on for explanation ; and we
cannot doubt, that when the time arrives,
they will be ready to answer the expectations
of the country. But Mr. HUSKISSON has con
filmed in the Councils of his SOVEREIGN al
along, and there can be no reason to deter him
now from joining those with whom he was for
merly associated in Lord LIVERPOOL'S Cab.

PARIS, J4N. 19.—The Gazette of Florence gives
the following news, after a letter from Corfu, dated
the 13th of December :
" The Arab troops, by the orders of Ibrahim, have
entirely abandoned Tripolizza, and the whole terri-
tory. Ibrahim has returned from the camp of Modon
to Navarin with his army. Gene►al Church, since
his landing at Dragomestre, had undertaking nothing
important, but was endeavouring to fortify himself
in several positions.
" The Turks who were at Prevesa, to the num-
ber of 1,000 men at most, had set, out on their
march, but stopped on learning the superior force
of the Greeks. Patras ;till holds out ; the garri-
son being diminished by the departure of the Arabs,
is no longer in fear of wanting provisions. The
Porte had summoned to Constantinople all the Al-
banian chiefs, in order to concert with them various
measures adapted to the present state of things, but
none had obeyed the summons for fear of losing his
head, or being kept as a hostage.
" The last accounts from the Archipelago state,
that the fort of Scio still held out, but that the
situation of the besieged became every day more
critical, in consequence of the bombardment which
the Greeks continued without interruption. Dur-
ing the month of November the garrison made three
sallies.

" A great quantity of mastich, which is gathered
in abundance at Selo, has been sent to Syra and
sold on account of the Greek Government, to de-
fray the expense of the expedition."
