his eldlion. The independent borough -of De-
vizes will difpenfe with the formality of a canvas
in a cafe fo interefling to the tranquillity of the
Empire. Thus Mr. ADDINGTON may come into
the Houfe of Commons as CH ANCELLOR of the Ez-
cHsnysa on the day after Mr. Pirr quits the Ra-
tion. • . .

Mr. ADDINGTON, it has been determined, is to
be both Prime Minifter and Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer, as was firft propofed, the Duke of PORT-
LAND having preferred remaining in his prefect
office. Lord HawaESDURY, it is raid, will be Mi-
sifter for Foreign Affairs, and Lord Macaws-may
be placed at the bead of the Board of Controul ;
but the Office of War Minifter is not to be united
with that, as before, in the perfon of Mr. DUNDAS,
We yeiterday mentioned the various arrange-
ments that had been propofed. Inftead of Mr.
PERCIVAL, Mr: Law is now mentioned as the in-
tended Solicitor-General. The Earl of CLARE.
denies that he is coming into any fituation of pub..
lk truft. Earl Sr. VINCENT has been offered the
Admiralty.
Lord Au c smear) is mentioned as having exerted
his talents and experience in bringing about the
diffolntion of the coalition which he fo happily for-
med ; and it is now mentioned as a fingular fait,
that he never once attended the late Seffion of Par-
liament. There are thofe, therefore, who think that
the difference between his MAJESTY and Mr. PITT
lies deeper, and is more inveterate than the fore
which is talked of as the immediate caufe of the
rupture. The paragraph in the coronation oath is a
mere pretext.' It cannot impofe on the molt
thallow underflanding, fence it is applicable only
to the KING'S executive, not his legiflative ca-
pacity. It enjoins him not to difpenfe with the
law of the land, and not to violate it ; but to fay
that his MAJESTY is bound by oath to refute his
Royal Affent to a Bill which may pats the two
Houfes of Parliament, is to alien that we have no
filch thing as a reprefentative fyftem, and that o*
Legiflature is a mockery. Whatever may be the
fecret and real caufe of the rupture, it is of a nature
that muff produce more momentous changes than
the chief aetors have perhaps the fmalleft idea of.
If Catholic emancipation be a mere pretext with
them, it is a matter of molt ferious import with
others. It is not a queftion that fhould be Darted
to kick about like a political foot-ball.
