LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 11, 1827.

In the present situation of affairs, we presume
that we must look to the most foul-mouthed
railer against the new Administration, as for that
day Leader of the Opposition in the House ei
Lords. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY having
resigned the office, the Duke of NEWCASTD
came forward last night in that character, and, 11
his Grace's speech is rightly reported, had the
audacity to call Mr. CANNING " the most profit'
gate Mitiister that ever was in power." To attempt
seriously the confutation of such palpable absurd-
ity, would be highly insulting to the Right Hon'
Gentleman, and would be giving too much 01'
portance to any thing which can fall from the
lips of the Noble Duke, who by the bye, is con'
vinced that " he expresses the sentiments of everY
well-thinking man, from John o'Groats' House
to the Land's End." We doubt very much, whether
he expresses the sentiments of one well-thinking
man in the whole of that island, with the limits
of which he has made himself so accurately
acquainted; but we are quite aware that, whether
he expresses other men's sentiments or not, there
are many of our Solons who are obliged to express
those emanating from his ducal soul. But his
Grace need not be afraid that Mr. CANNING
will interfere with his selection of fit and proper
persons for a certain House, for the Right
Hon. Gentleman is no Radical Reformer, and
might really have conciliated his Grace's disinte"

rested support by the assurances be has give:
on that subject, not to talk of the Corn Bii"
which is to meet with the Noble Duke's oppo-
sition, but upon the highly advantageous terms
of which we think that his Grace should hold $
Privy Council in the Painted Chamber,
prejudice, however, to the sovereignty, which by
law appertains to him over his vassals.
• a
There was, however, another speech delivered
in the House of Lords, deserving notice of
very different nature. It was uttered by one,'
who, we hoped, would have atoned for a life
of much public delinquency by now coming
forward in support of the new Administra-
tion. We cannot forget the part acted by
Mr. GREY, at the time of the French Revo-
lution. He was then young, and led awN
by the fascinating talents of one whosefrailties
we will not draw from their. dread abode;
but from that hour to the present, we have
i
seen no symptoms of amendment, and the Earl
GREY will probably continue to the end °f
his life the cynical opposer of all who do lint
surrender their judgments in every particular T
the extravagant and impracticable views which
he entertains. We think that his Lordship
speech may be of great. service to Mr. CANNING;
proving that the Right Hon. Gentleman does n°
identify himself with any but the more moderato,
Whigs, but there can be no excuse for Lora
GREY'S conduct. Out of his own mouth
we condemn him. He says that his prin-
ciples, and those of the Ultras are " wide
as the poles asunder." This is not tho
case with the new Administration, which'
has the support of Lord LANSDOWN, Sir
FRANCIS BURDETT, and of all those for Whom
Lord GREY professes the highest esteeol;
and yet his Lordship indulges in a tirade against
Mr. CANNING, thereby doing every thing his
power to upset the present, and substitute, on WI
without
showing, a much worse Administration. Should

CANNING in the beat of debate. The whole °

Europe knows that it teas the Right Hon. Gen-
tleman who conferred political freedom
South America, and not the speeches of Lord
GREY, who seems to claim that merit, but we
shall leave the vindication of that phrase (if such
be necessary), and of the whole of his conduct,
to Mr. CANNING himself, who will, no doubt, P",
a fit occasion, reply to all the charges -which Lau.
GREY or the Duke of NEWCASTLE may be
pleased to make.
We can not, however, conclude without expres-
sing our earnest hope that no display of p,.artY
spirit or of personal jealousy will induce 1"1.1;
CANNING to relinquish the proud station which
he holds in the confidence of his SovEngt°l4
and the approbation of his country. his
The Right Hon. Gentleman should view
continuance in office not as a personal gratifie'
Lion, but as involving the cause of civil and re-
ligious liberty throughout the world. Let the
friends of that cause rally round their great Leaue
anti they will soon put to silence the factious ela
mour, to encounter which, is too often the fat;
of unrivalled merit.

The Paris Papers of Tuesday, and the Etoile,
dated Wednesday morning, are unusually bare°
of political intelligence, and are almost entirely
filled with a Debate in the Chamber of Deputies,
on the 7th instant, on the Budget, for 1828.
M. LAFITTE having in the course of l'ls
speech made allusion to the disbanding of the
National Guard, a ery of several voices demanded
the impeachment of the Ministers. This call
M. LAFITTE declared himself ready to obele
'
stating that, if four Deputies would bring °d
Act of Impeachment to the Tribune, he votlil
.
be the first to sign it. Several Deputies imille"l-
ately declared they would sign it. Order, hove! ,
was restored, and no further steps towards the °iv
peachment of Ministers were taken. In the OP
of M. VILLELE to the speeches which had bee
made on the subject immediately before the C113!°„
,
ber, he stated that he should have deserved
peachment if he had not advised the measure
disbanding the National Guard ; this deelsjrftr
tion occasioned violent agitation, but after orle
was restored, M. VILLF.LE repeated what,
had said, and added—" I shall never dread
the
impeachment for a measure necessary for
public interest and the safety of the countr);
which was not to be replunged into revolution i
want of firmness on the part of the advisers °
the Crown."
The Debate was adjourned to the next day'
The Etoile states positively that the reporte

visit'of the Emperor DON PEDRO, to Europe,
will not take place.
The KING of Franc, is confined by a slight
fit of the gout.

Lord Viscount DUDLEY, last night, in the
!louse of Peers, declined affording the further
information asked by Lord ELLENBOROUGH,
reSPeCting our present relations with Portugal,
adding that the question of whether our troops
were to remain in that kingdom or to be with-
drawn was connected with negociations now
ring on, and which were not in a state to be
however,
before their Lordships. His Lordship,
declined stating whether those negoci-
ations were carrying. on with Portugal or with
any other country.
In this delicate state of affairs, any further ob-
servations from us on the subject would be im.
Proper.

~,°llsiderable time previous to Lord Strangford's mission,
ho acquired general esteem and friendship by his open and
tOicg manners, was expected soon to return to that

lit.teln of paving, in opposition to the improved

Pglifares, such as the Strand, Cheapside, and

lots to the Legislature against the present
ate of the law respecting Macadamization. As
