TUESDAY MORNING, FEE. 15, 1853

MINISTERIAL MEASURES.
13/;RLIA:MENT'has again met for the real business
of -the session, and Lord JOHN RUSSELL, as the
leader of they House of Commons, has announced
the measures which will be brought forward as the
course of 'Ministerial legislation. It has been a
'tter of anxious speculation to ascertain in what
way the discordant pinciples of the several members
of the Cabinet -would be reconciled to any practi-
cable system, -and some light has been thrown upon
by the sessional programme, -which will be found
detailed' in our parliamentary report. It is a curi-
osity in its.way, and is
well deserving public atten-
tion, as a new illustration of the phrase in which
1101‘1E0 expresses his admiration of JULIET— "She
otPeaks, yet- she says nothing:"& The Ministerial organs profess to be satisfiewith the statement.

Would yield him no aliment ? Yet this is much
character of the feast which this nondescript
ICabinet has prepared for those ;who were anxiously
ooKing for a 'declaration of political principles,
which should combine the united opinions and
Views of Peelites, Whigs, Radicals, Romanists, and
xiihndels. The only really important part of the
ole affair—the chief stumbling-block, the solitary
grain of wheat in the bushel of-chaff—is postponed
until some time after Easter, when Mr. GLADSTONE

Ina,/ turn up in the chapter of accidents,
than con-

all the talents." In the meantime, let us look at
the Meagre list wbioli has been prepared, and derive
"roe consolation from the implied admission that
Its very poverty shows their prudent fear of being
able-to do anything.

a most satisfactory announcement, when we con-
