THE EVENING STAR.

LONDON.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28.

This day the customary despatches wero received at the
Foreign-office from Lord STUART DE ROTHSAY, our Am-
bassador at Paris.

This day also, despatches were received at the Colonial
Office from Van Diemen's Land, dated the let of June;
from Bermuda, dated the 26th of September ; and from Ha-
lifax, dated the 6th instant.

No later accounts from Brussels are received this day,
than those which we present to oar readers in our subsequent
columns. We learn, from private sources, that the last
decree of the King of HOLLAND, which wo republish from
the Times, will have a soothing influence on the Belgians.

Among many pamphlets which have lately issued from the
Press, discussing what is to be the conduct of Administra
tion in the new Parliament, there is one entitled, " A
Letter to the Duke of WELLINGTON, on the expediency of
making Parliamentary Reform a Cabinet measure," which
in many respects is worthy of notice. This writer earnestly
recommends his Grace to introduce reform as a Cabinet
measure, conceding it as a " boon," to prevent its being
" forced upon Government against its will."
One of the modes by which ho conceives the "force" al-
luded to, may be brought to act against the Administration,and
embarrass its measures, is of a singular, and certainly not of a
very legitimate nature. He proposes, as practicable, that ten,
members should unite, and pertinaciously stop all supplies and
other public business, " until the Executive Govern-
ment be completely paralyzed, !ILA at a stand." These
ten confederates are to arrange, between themselves, so
as to have never less in attendance than six, who are to
4' hamper Ministers by opposing all their motions, and
stopping business altogether, when less than forty Mem-
bers were present." Their object must be only "to
kill time." " When no more time could be consumed,
on the preliminary question, then would be the mo-
ment for moving an amendment ; when a new debate
could be raised again, and, as far as the forms of the
House would allow, and killing time, still farther by coming
to actual divisions when necessary, " where," asks the Au-
thor triumphantly, " would Ministers find themselves at the
end of only a single week ? "
Now this is a mode of ousting a ministry, which although
the author maintains to ba legal, we maintain to be as we ,

have said, illegitimate; that is to say,if descended from law,
en unlawfully begotten pregeny of its parent. Themode of
talking a minister out of place would, we verily believe,
:succeed better with the Duke of WELLINGTON, than
perhaps any other man ; as his Grace, we conceive, is
one of those who prefer deeds to talk, and is not inclined
to darken " council with many words ;" but the plan, suc-
cessful as it might prove, rewinds us of the ingenious mode
practised, of ousting merchants from the Royal Exchange,
by stunning them out with " tintinabulary clatter."
We cannot believe that the sensible author of this pam-
phlet, could ever consider this plan, even if practicable, one
of a constitutional character. We mean by constitutional,
that which is consonant to the real spirit of our constitutional
system. It is the very essence of all popular legislative as-
t.emblies, that measures should be opposed or negatived by the
fair votes of the majority; and if such a quirk, or flaw, should
be allailed of, by any insulated faction—for so acting, they
would require no milder designation—we are sure, not only
would the legislative power and wisdom of the very assem-
bly itself, soon find a means to rectify the existing defici-
ency, but the whole good sense of the people would support
their act.

Exclusive of this part of the pamphlet, we think there is
much of good sense in what the author advances. We ap-
prehend, with the author, that we are approximating times
which will require some modifications of our system ; but we
conceive it moat essential, that while courage to accomplish
salutary improvement, may be indispensable, it is not less so,
that there should be united with it, courage inexorable to
the maintenance of those limits, which distinguish reform
from revolution ; and we sincerely believe among the public
