 PosTseRIPT, April Il, 1885. THE PEEL MINISTRY HAVE RE-
 SIGNED!!!
So much for he fact. how for tha detail


 1 told you, in my letter of the Sth, (which accompanies this, as the United States has been unable to sail, from contra " winds)-I told you that the debate on Monday night, Il write this on Saturday. respecting Lord John Russell's motion on the Irish Church, would probably cause the downfall of Sir R. Peei's ministry. The debate took place, and the Ministry were beaten by majority of 25. The next night, the question was again debated, and Sir k. Peel made the best speech that bas for many years been heard in the Commons, against the motion. He was agaIn beaten, by majority of 27
 The King, on Thursday, sent for Earl Grey. His Lordship had the good sense to decline office; but whether his no, is like that of maiden whose tongue burns to say yes, remains to be seen. At Earl Grey's suggestion, Lord Melbourne was sent for by the King, offered the Premiership roughly declined 1t, and then, like the maid en again suffered scruples to evaporate, and began to make a compact. It is said that he insists on the power to create as many new Peers as he thinks will be neces- sary to make the House of Lords liberal enough. Let him have the power, and the knowledge that he HAS It, will frighten the Lords into propriety. At the time write (early on Saturday morning,) we have no account of the result of Lord Melbourne's interview with the King on Thursday But, 1t may be assumed as a matter almost certain, that he will resume the Premiership.
 Some accounts say that Earl Spencer, (Lord Althorp,) had been sent for by the King, to form an administration. This seems an ineorroborated report.
 Lord Stanley and Sir James Graham do NOT take office. They coquetted with both parties at first-then committed themselves to the tories-and finally, have shut the door of office in their own faces.
 Perhaps O'Connell will take office. If so t will be some post that will not deprive him of the right to sit in Parliament. But HIS acceptance of office is doubtful. The post of Attorney General of Ireland is talk ed of as likely to suit him. Without dis pute, he is the best lawyer in Ireland.
 The Earl of Mulgrave is mentioned as likely to become Lord Lieutenant of Ire- land. He is clever, off-hand young man; has written two or three fashionable novels,' and was governor of Jamaica a short time ago.
 MT. Spring Rice is spoken of as Chan celor of the Exchequer; but all these are merely on dis, which Tissue without pledg- ing myself to their accuracy.
 should not wonder, if. when this Irish Church question is disposed of, Sir R. Peel should join the ministry now forming.
 l have neither time or inclination to an- tlcipate my letter of the 18th, by general news; sufficient to add that the American Bill will be passed by large majority, and very few speeches against 1t.
 Mrs. Hemans remains very i'll in Dublin, but there are some hopes of her recovery very faint hopes, however.
 William IYth's cavalcade did not proceed to the House of Lords for the opening speech from the throne without his majesty being "pretty considerably hissed and groaned at by his 'sliege subjects" which he noticed only by naughty silence, while he bowed as graciousiy to the few feeble voices that cried s'Long live King William?'' The ladies were in crowds in the Lords Chamber; and the peers in robes and the bishops in lawns.
 Sir Samuel .Whaly, in the House of Commons, in aluding to the threatened dissolution of Parliament, quoted the words of the Lord Keeper to Charles I.-''Y our Majesty may dissolve it, but another swarm will come out of the same hive"
 From the Journal des Debats Ministerial l
 One word on the speech of NJ. Bgnon. The name and talents of M. Bignon give unusual weight and ascendency to his lan- guage. He referred to a correspondence of Rives, who after the conclusion of the treaty of 1881, on writing to his government, boasted of having obtained more than was dueto them. The American negotiator an- nouneed on having obtained the 25 mll- lions, that he had deceived us and that we were to pay more than we owed. What answer was to be given to this oyerwhelm- ing circumstance? We will not say that 1t IS uncommon in the course of events that diplomatist before obtaining what he asks should exaggerate the difficulties he meets with, or that when he has obtained 1t, he should exaggerate the consequences of his success. We will not say but 1t is cus- < tomary for every man to exaggerate his own merits, and when tue cause has been gained by him, to represent it as having been very bad one. We will leave aside 4l
