The passage ofthe Reform bill becomes
every day more doubtful. All the papers
concur IN the belief that new creation of
Peers is indispensable to it's success.

The cholera is OF minor Importance to the
people where hopes and fears are bound up

The evidence increases by every arrival, that
the opinions which we expressed some weeks
ago on this subject are about to be Justified
by events. The hope that the House of
Lords will assent to the passage of tho Bill is
utterly abandoned by all the journals. The
Times, the leading reform paper, expressly,
day after day, declares that ia creation Of
Peers is the only resource and joins the other
papers in demanding that measure of the min
istry. The ministry have taken no steps as
yet that indicate an intention to resort to it,
and so far us the Press and the People can as
certain, have done nothing whatever since the

Tories exult more loudly every day in their
