THE

necessary.
Lord LYN,IMIURST will sit in Lincoln's Inn Hall,
at one o'clock to-morrow, to deliver judgment in the
appeals that remain for decision.
Lord COTTENIIAM his accepted the scßls.

The following appeared in our Third Edition of

last night:—

The death of Lord WIIMINCLIFFE, which was an,
nounced in our early Edition, opens the door to Par-
liament for Lord DIOEPETII, and enables the new
Ministry to boast among its members the represen-
tative for the West Riding of Yorkshire
The Cabinet arrangements remain secret.
It is reported, but we hardly believe it, that Mr.
AUSTIN will be the new Solicitor-General. Mr.
AUSTIN is a man of transcendant power, and of great
wealth, but what has he ever done for the Liberal
party ?

Absurd rumours have been afloat• in the Courts of
Law as to Lord COTTENHoiM refusing the seals, and
the appointment of Lord DENMAN as Chancellor, with
Sir Tuosias WILDE for Chief Justice. We notice
them only to contradict them.

(FROM A CORRI:SPONDENT.)
A Privy Council will shortly be held at Windsor
Castle, at which the new Ministers will be sworn
into office and receive their several seals from the
QUEEN. At present, however, nothing positive is
known as to the day of the Council.
The members of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Administra-
tion will also attend at Windsor Castle on the same
occasion, fur the purpose of delivering their seals of
office.

Thi3 morning the usual daily meeting of Lord
LANSDOWNE and the other leading political supporters
of Lord JouN RUSSELL took place at his Lordship's
private residence in Chesham-place, Belgrave-square.
The meeting broke up at three o'clock.

The change of Ministry, which, in the language
of our„Freneh neighbours, is now " en fait ac-
emnph, will naturally lead the public, and more
especially that portion not blinded to party prejudices,
to draw a comparison between those who have retired
and those who are to fill their places. The chief
members of the new Cabinet are known, the depart-
ments they are destined to fill are also tolerably well
ascertained, and in several important points it hiay
be safely stated that, as regards the government
of
the country, and the dispatch of arrears in equity, they
have a manifest advantage over their predecessors.
Lord LYNDHURST was absolutely worn out. His mind
possibly was as clear and sound as ever, but his bodily
infirmities and age were such, that latterly he had
become unfit for office, and the ruinous effects o:
his inability for business were felt and loudly com-
plained of by the suitors in Chancery. Lord COT-
TENRAM is, therefore, a manifest change for the better
He troubles himself little with politics. While Lord
Chancellor, during the Government of Lord MEL •

NEW MINISTRY.

The following appeared-in our Seeond Edition o
last night :

There will not be any list of the new Cabinet
published this day. The Ministers are now in con-
sultation, and to-morrow, in all probability, the entire
arrangements will be announced

What course will be adopted as to a dissolution of
Parliament cannot as yet be predicted ; but, from
the best information we can get, we believe that no
immediate dissolution is contemplated.
The Parliament cannot meet before its usual
time, unless it should be called together merely
for the purpose of moving the writs for the re-
elections which the acceptance of office renders
