HdJ past ! o'ciOck.-Mr. Canning and the
character of the administration about to be form
ed by hun, have furnished a mpst anlmatiug to-
pic to day in the city and the Exchange has
been constantly rhronged with mquirers eager
to collect authentic intelligence from the Court
end of the town. The FIRST point which parties
have bccn anxious TO establish, IS whether the
Minister IS IN possession of the Kings cordial
support, and whether he IS likely 10 form such
an administration as will secure the confidence
OF the country, and maintain It's ground against
the high aristrocratical party now avowedly up.
posed 10 IT. il is understood here, that in tue
interviews which Nj. Gaming has had with
the King, IN which he delivered 10 his Majesty
the resignation OF his late colleagues some very
| neqniyoCai demonstrations were afforded Of The
| effect produced by that event on til. Kings
! mind. has been reused II is said, to 4 degree
OF energy and frmncss, for which the public.
and probably too the ministers who have resign
ed, will not have been prepat ed No one viii
believe mere but that the seeding members Of
! the late Cabinet nave calculated on the over
throw OF Canning by this step, and that the Of
hcers they held were placed by permanent
~, in no sort ofjeopardy. They probably con-
oluded, too, that the Kings mind would have
been overcome by the desertion, at one time, of
SO many of his supposed friends and that their
resignation would not be accepted. They have
been, however, ii is said, completely dsappoint-
ed IN this expectation, the King having without
hesitation, sgnted his acceptance OF all the re.
signatlons tendercd accompanied with tone
and inanner which, in ali probability, will c1lec-
! tualy preclude their return 10 Office hereafter.
! The King, 1t may be affirmed, we believe is too
much irratcd at thei. conduct ever 10 restore
them, willingly, again 10 laYor; and thus is the
royal favor, OF course, secured 10 MIR. Canning.
VARIOUS lists Of ministers for the new admins
traten have been handed about to-day, in the
city but II would be idle to repeat what is cir
cnlated on such occasions Among the rumors
that appear best entitled to attention, is one,
that very essential change is Contemplated
with respect 10 the admiralty il being the inten-
lion to abolish the board altoe ether, aud to re-
vive the office of Lord High Admiral in the
person otthe Duke of Clarence who will con.
duct the affairs OF the navy with the advice of a
council. This is supposed TO have been the cause
which led to the Dukes visit TO Windsor, viii
ther he was sent forby the King, and that his
acquiescence in the arrangement, was obtained
at the interview which followed The appoint
ment If the reports on ting subject may be re-
he'd on, VIII be 4 good omen ofthe tact by which
the minister is governed in forming his new ar
rangements. 1t is also rumored here that the
command of the army is TO be offered to the
Marquis of Angesea.
OF the motives of the Dake of Wellington in
resigning the latter office, there is account in
circulation which is too honorable To his Grace
