The news of political character is not import

its appearance decidedly in Dublin.

REFORM.
Lord WharnclAe. last night, suggested 10
Lord GREY the propriety OF postponing the SC
coud leading of the Reform blll. from thursday,
the 5th, TO Monday. the 9th OF April because OF
the Quarter sessions being 20 be held In the course
os the ensuing week. The Prime Minister ac-
c,ded TO the proposition, and with facility which
leads us to presume tina, the matter had been al
rs,dv arranged between the parties. Earl Grey
a. ,hs same time ntimated his desire that there
shopld be No delay after the second reading, but
,ha, their Lordships should at once proceed to
Cnnmittee ON the Bill. IL there be no interval
between the second reading and the committee,
it must be surmised that the creation OF peers
will take place before the former Of those stages;
otherwise the seyerest portion OF the battle may
b.vs heoun before the Ministerial force is prepar-
s1 for service. As every hour is now watched
by the people with intense solicitude, and each
movement towards the slightest representation
medita,ed with jealous and suspicious eye, we
do not know that such putting of, even though
it be but from Thursday to Monday. was in itself
expedient. However. if Lord Wharnciiffe and
other Lords Of the same opinion, should employ
the three days in sober and bona tide reflection
mon the character Of bill in relation to the
state of the country, the sacrifice will not have
hssn made in vain-7imes. March 81.
