THE LONDON JOURNALS.

[DAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS.]

[Morning Post]
The Party Chronicle is working, hard to procure
A ddre!,:ses for the removal of Ministers and the
advancement of its patrons to place and power.
This old game is peculiarly appropriate at this
new era; for surely a Monarch whose Queen is
infamous-could nothave fitter servants than those
whose toils and manoeuvres went to saddle him
with an adulterous companion for life. The
Court would then be of a piece, and the coup
trail of the Government complete ;—a King
forced- to endure a convicted harlot for his part-
ner, that female at the head of society; and
those Ministers who palliated and defended her
guilt, and 'who insulted and reviled their Sove-
rei,n, elevated to the high station of which they
have thus proved themselves so worthy. 11re-
can picture them in our mind's eye, Lord Er-
skine, the ingrate to his friend and ,benefactor,
Lord Chancellor, and Keeper of that Conscience
which lie has so laboured to make the country
believe consisted of an utter want of conscien—
tious principle ; his task will therefore be light,
and if not grown too old and faintish, he may
dance- about the Woolsack as he did fourteen
years ago. Earl Grosvenor, of course, Lord Pre-
sident of the Council, for which his respect for
the Throne, moderation, consistency, and inte-
grity, so eminently qualify him. Lord Holland,
Lord Privy Seal : his Stentorian shouts on the
withdrawal of the Bill of Pains and Penalties,
prove his eligibility to a quiet, private sort of
office. Then comes the-sugar-tempered, amiable
democrat-aristrocrat Earl Grey, First Lord of
the 'Treasury and Premier ; rendered fourteen
times more apt by his fourteen years banishment
from the loaves and fishes. One of. that faction
which could net oblige the good George the Third
to violate his Coronation Oath, must be re-
commended to Etigland and to his Royal Master
by his success in obliging George the Fourth
to submit to a violation of his marriage
bed. The -trimming crooked politics 'of Mr.
Tierney will at least render the Chancellorship
of the Exchequer -a place of finance and fi-
nesse, if not of respectability and trust—for
none will trust here ! As no man has shewn
himself a better judge of propriety in domes-
tic
.affairs than Lord Fitzwilliam, we . may
assign him the Home Secretaryship; while
Lord King, who is so free from British feel-
ings,- might take the FOreign Portfolio ; and
the gallant Marquess- of Lansdown, War ,and
Colonies, so that he might wage .hostilities
against Newcastle, and introduce a new mixed
breed bet Ween the Italian and English -with a
cross of the Syrian; into our population, whose
manners should be as pure as 'those of her
Majesty's suite on board the polacre, in the Holy
Land;at the masquerades of Naples, and the
snug dances at the Barona, or a la Mahomet-
Dirnma. The principal responsible situations
thus filled; Lord Hawke, for his name's sake,
might have the Admiralty ; Lord Rosslyn, the
Ordnance ; and FAse7c, Darnley, and Carnarvon,
be provided for with the Board of Controul, the
Mint, and the Board of Trade.- The independent
Russells would attain their
:object ; the Duke,
their head, being Lord Lieutenant of Ireland ;
and the famous scribe and letter writer, Lord
J ohn, his Chief Secretary. To, shew how. able able
Lawyers are on either side, Mescrs. Brougham
and Denman would figure as the King's Attor-
ney and Solicitor ; and among the little people.
'of the party, the Creeveys, Moores, Noels,
Woods, might be Sub and Joint Treasurers (they
'would like, owing to certain circumstances, to
finger the cash) ; the Humes and 'Vernons, Se
cretaries ; and others, from their fitness, be put
on his Majesty's own Establishment. Thus the
bed-room visitant, Lord Llandaff, would be a
caPitalL Lord of the Bed-chamber ; the Duke of
-Argyll, Master of the Stag Hounds ; Lord Dacre,
Groom of the Stole ; and Baron Bergami, Master
of the Household. Thus the country would not
only be blessed with all the Talents, but with
all the Virtues, in authority ; and the disinterest-
ed, patriotic, beyond-the-Chronicle-vocabulary-
to-deseribe,• " upright band " of its Whiggery
and Jacobin friends be rewarded for their noble
struggle to protect our chaste and immaculate
Queen ! !

[Morning Chronicle.]
The defeat of Ministers cannot fail to have
an effect on the deliberations at Troppau. The
Members of the Holy Alliance were assured of
the countenance of the English Government, and
kii6v that so far from its interfering to frustrate
any of their designs, with regard to Naples, it
would render them every assistance short of sup-
plies of men or money. It would never enter
into their contemplation that the immense re-
ssoprces at the disposal of Ministers could be em-
ployed in vain, and that with no other protection
than the laws and people of England, the Queen
would not only frustrate their designs against
her, but cover them with ignominy and disgrace.
These unexpected results must, therefore, till
them with apprehension. They cannot look with
confidence to a continuation in office of their
favourite Ministry. • They have seen with what
effect the people of . England have opposed the
designs of that Ministry ; and knowing the ab-
horrence with which they are viewed in conse-
quence of these proceedings, they cannot be cer-
tain that the same public feeling which thwarted
their designs, may not ultimately drive them
froin their places. They know too that these
Ministers .might be succeeded by men who con,
ceive that England's true policy is to protect,
and not to destroy the liberties of other nations,
and consequently to resist the abominable pre-
tensions of the European Despots. It will there-
fore, we should suppose, require something more
than the assurances.of. Lord Stewart to tranquil
size them on this head. It-was-not to be expect-
..d that the creatures and dependents of Govern-
ment would partake of the general joy of the peo-
ple of England on the acquittal,of the Queen. We,
