the change.
There is not in all England, or in Europe,
a more lofty aristocrat than Earl Grey though
at the head Of the Wings.
I will mention single fact at present. IL
1918, at a dinner given ID honor Of Mr.. Fox,
at Newcastle, Earl Grey, as one of the speak
ers, was not satisfied with simply denounc-
ing annual parliaments and universal suffrage,
which Sir Francis Burdett, Maj. Cartwright,
(Mr JefIerson's cOrrespondent,) and others of
that party, were cOntendng for; but SD de-
sirOus did he appear not to fall under the
least suspicion of republicanism. that he went
out of his way to express his dsappr"bation
OF the principles Of the constitution OF the u
nted States, and to inveigh against what ne
called our impure aud corrupt elections IN
this country.
Then, in this new WING Ministry, we have
as chancellor Ofthe exchequer, Lord Althorp'
sou of Earl Spencer, nohleman OF high
hearing with Earl Grey, in place of Mr.. Goul-
bourn as home secretary, Lord Melbourn.
in place of ST: Robert Peel, the son of ii man.
ufacturer; as colonial secretary, Lord Code
rich another nobleman, and the brother of a
noblrman, Lord Grantham, in place of Sir
John Murray; as master Of the mint. LORD
Auckland, in place of Mr.. Herries; as chan
isrtllor of the duchy Of Lancaster, Lord Hot
ter of the forces, Lord John Russell, son of
the Duke of Bedford, 10 place of Mr.. Cacraft
and SO by going through the entire list, it
swould be seen that the new officers, with their
connections, show remarkable predomin-
ance of noblemen over the late ministry, and
of noblemrn Of ancient families.
In blood, it is more arstOcratical than
Lord Wellington's ministry than Canning's;
or probably than that of any that has been
| formed 10 England for the last fifty years. 1t
is very powerful in talents.
1t stands SO pledged, by long course of
opposition, to some reduction in the expenses
of the Government, and some change in the
representation in the House Of Commons,
that if it last 10, 6 enough. which is doubtful,
it cannot get off. and perhaps would not wish
to; but the reduction and the changes will
he scrupulously under the safeguard Of aris-
tocracy.
Whoever expects that its administration, at
home or abroad, will, otherwise, take any
other direction than that Of arist.rracy. and
high arislocracy, will, Think be disappointed
venture to predict, that this English Min
istry will not side with France, in the great
battle that is coming on in Europe, between
the Kings and the People. TEMPLE.

he seen that the doctrine Of notification was
consttutonaIIy nulliied by an overw helming
majority. The debate was IA most animated
one, and continued for several hours. The
only argument advanced against the adoption
of Mr.. Worth's resolutions. was that it was
highly INDIGENOUS and improper for North
Carolina to reflect upon her nainesake Of the
South. When it is borne in mind that the
citizens Of this state naturally entertain feel
ing ofwarm attachment TO the people of South
carolina. and the most exalted respect for the
distinguished men TO whom she has given
birth, the vote on this subject shows most
conclusively. that the cord of private friend
ship is but an attenuated thread, compared
with the lion grippe which binds North Caro-
lima no longer to the Union. Let South Car

notification is treason; and they who advo-
cate it are traitors to our dearest rights.
