 POLITICAL REVOLUTION IN ENGLAND.
 The GeniuS ofReform has shaken his wand over Great Britain, and the Duke of Well lington and hiI colleagues have been driven from their plates by the irresistible force of public opinionl And if the rumors, as to the reformation of the New Ministry prove cor rect, the whias have at least obtained full possession of the strong holds of patronage, power, and pl$ce.
 HousE oFLoRDs, Tuesday, Nov. 16.
 The Duke ofW ellington advanced to the ta- ble, and said-'I think it proper to acq.aint your Lordships, that in consequence of what occurred lastnight in the House of Commons have felt it to be my duty to wait on his Ma jesty, and to tender my resignation of the of flee which had the honor to hold. MyLords, his Majesty has signifed his pleasure to ac- cept of that resignation, and now only hold the office until my successor be appointed. 9 TheDuke, after pronouncing these few words, which were heard with marked attention, resumed his seat for few minutes, and then withdrew.
 RESIGNATION OF MINISTER'S.
 Sir K. Peel now rose, and the deepest at tention prevailed in every part of the House while the Right Hon. Gentleman addressed the Chair as follows: Sir,-The unfeigned respect which owe to this House induces me to take the earliest possible opportunity of publicly stating, In my place, that in conse- quence of what occurred last night, felt it my duty to waitupon the King, and humbly and respectfully to inform his Majesty that 1 no longer found it in my power to administer public affairs (so far as those affairs depended upon mel either with satisfaction to my own feelings, or advantage to the country-Qoud cries of hear, hear,) 1 therefore rendered to the King my. resignation, which his Majesty has been graciously pleased to accept, and 1 now hold the seals of the Home Department only till my successor shall have been appoint ed. In like manner, my colleagues, the oth- CT Members of the Cabinet, hold office only till other individuals shall have been appoint ed to succeed them."-(H (Hear hear.)
 Lord Althorp-ln consequence of the com muhication which the right hon. gentleman has just made to the house, every one must feel that al this moment when there is no Go vernment-no Administration-it would be both improper and inconvenient to undertake the debate which stands for this night, on the motion of my hon. and learned friend (Mr Brougham.) The circumstances which have occurred render it quite impossible that such a motion could be discussed tonight wi,h any advantage 10 the country-(hear, hear) know of no instance within my own recolec- tion in which motion of such importance was brought forward under such circumstan- ces, and now hope that my hon. and learned friend will see the propriety of not urging his proposition this evening-(hear.)
 Mir Brougham-The respect which bear for this House is as great, 1 can. assure you, Sir, as that which has been expressed with so much grace by the right hon. Secretary, but do still feel the greatest repugnance to put ting off the motion, however disposed in other respects to adopt any suggestion coming from my noble friend. quite agree with my no- ble friend when he says that no question of such importance as this has ever been brought forward at time when there was deficiency in the government; but my difficulty in post poning it arises from the intense feeling that pervades every part of the country, and from the consideration that no question involving such vast, such mighty interests as this, has lever been discussed within these walls (cheers. feel the task 1 have to perform a very painful and difficult one. Called upon as am by my noble friend, am anxious at all times to do nothing whatever which could bear the remotest appearance of not duly de- fering to the declared sense of the House, ei- ther as to the manner or time of bringing for ward this or any other motion may have tc submit. I,however, throw wmyselffrankly,fa fair ly and candidly, on the consideration of the House, and if it be the desire of the honorable Members that should postpone the motion l beg it to be understood that yield rather tt their wishes than to my own inclination. As al change of administration that may take place cannot affect me, am anxious to take thi opportunity of stating, that if now put of the motion, it will only be to the 25th of thi month, and no longer for l shall positivel bring it forward then, whoever may be min ister-( Hear, hear)
 Sir K. Peel-1 am anxious to guard agains any misconception which may arise in tn public mind in consequence of one particula expression that hasfallen from the noble Tor
