 On the important subject of slavery in the West Indies, the Premier, Earl Grey. in reply to some questions put to him, said that to declare immediate emancipation would undoubtedly make short and easy work of the matter: but he confessed that that was not the way in which he wished to deal with the question; and he was glad to hear from his noble friends explanation that the word immediate" was not to he taken as meaning immediate, but the earliest period at which emancipation should ;ake place with safety to all the interests concerned. He (Earl Grey) was anxious for the abolition of slavery, but he was not prepared to declare for immediate emancipation, without consld-
