From the London Observer of 10th Oct. VIC copy
the following article:

Will be pursued by Earl Grey. We believe that, up
TO the moment VIC writing, Earl Grey has deter
mined not to resign; and that encouraged by the
House OF Commons, and the voices of the majority
OF The people, he will make effort to carry his
bill by calling to the Upper House number of the
eldest sons of its present members who supper
tors OF the BILL so that the titles will be gradu-
aRy absorbed by the ancient aristocracy-by raising
some OF the moro distinguished commoncrs to the
Peerage with limited remanders- and by calling
small portion of the Irish s. Scotch mobiles to seats
IN the British Legislature.
If the consent Of his MAJESTY he oh,n;nod 70
these expedients and there no reason at present
to suppose that it will be withheld new bill will
be forthwith passed through the Comm ons and sent

some reasonable notifications, it will receive the
assent OF every portion of the Legislature In the
midst of these doubts and difficulties the people

Mr. Wilmer of Liverpool, in consequence of
having received short supply of the latest Lon
don papers, has sent us the following particulars of
the state OF public feeling in the metropolis, CLEAN
cd from the papers of the 10th October together
with accounts from Derby and Chester, which fol-
low:
"Nothing can exceed tho indignant feeling
which was manifested on Saturday. on throwing
out the Reform Bill in the House of Lords Ear
iy In the day, though the weather was tempestuous
groups were collected on the Exchange and at eve
Ty corner, to collect such particulars as they could
oil what all considered common calamity, and
the publication ofthe morning papers being ex-
trcmeiy late, owing to the hour at which the divs
,on took place, the shops of the news vendors
beset by applicants long after the usual period and
to degree wholly unprecedented
on the Royal Exchange, every corner was occu-
pied by knots of politicians, questioning each other,
ana forming conjectures on the consequences of
this event; most of them at a loss for any mode of
retrieving the wrong done to the people of Eng
land. We heard many of them who had important
private ayocations attend to- confess themselves
wholly unfit, through the distress of mind under
winch they laboured, to answer any claims of that
nature
A great number of the leading merchants and
bankers, members of the House of Commons(
proceeded to attend u meeting at Wiliss rooms, in
order to put thor names to declaration OF support
10 the present Ministers. a requisition is also in
course of signature, calling upon the Lord Mayor
to convene meeting of the Livery, which will be
presented to hiIhihis evening. No disorder of any
taken place. but is in DlnIio
to take steps for the organization of civic guard
an which the respectable householdcrs may enrol
their names, Tor the purpose of repressing any tu
multuouS movements which may occur.
The effect on the funds is a comparatively imper-
feet test of feeling in the city, which has been too
acute and too highly reused to occupy it with
transactions Of speculative kind. The fall of
Consols was one per cent. The closing price of
last night was 80, and somc bargains took place at
!9s, after which Il reaction occurred on learning
that the ministry would on no account relinqush
ofhce, and the closing price SOL.
The news of the fatal vote Saturday morning,
spread over the country, with almost telegraphic
raPldity, and produced every where establishment
and CONSERVATION. An express reached Birminr-
ham at five o'clock in the afternoon; Il universal
feeling of disappointment and Indignation pervaded
the whole population The funeral bells of all the
churches and chapes were muf!cd and tolled, as on
the most solemn occasions. The Council of the
Political Union assembled in the course of the
evening, and address to the people TO abstain
from outrage was Immediately issued.

report of the probability Of lis rejection, was re.
