Most gratifying is the assurance which we are
able to offer to our friends, that notwithstanding
those differences which rendered dissolution OF the
cabinet unavoidable, there Is not the slightest dan
ger OF any schsm in the great conservative party or
Of any desertion from It. The whole OF the cabinet
retires without shade Of personal hostility among
its members, or any difference of sentiment upon

Upon this question, too, the difference Is much less

Sir Robert Peel has even insisted upon considera-

sufficient by the whole cabinet; and we must at
present agree with the disseniients. Nevertheless,

fifty seats to replace themselves in their glorious

The great objection to the correctness Of this list is that

From the London Post Dec l2l
What may be the tactics OF the new Ministry
seems matter Of considerable dubitation with the
political public. A dissolution Of Parliament was
the first thing that suggested itself TO peoples minds
expected to furnish. the Wings with working ma

most serious inconvenience to the public interest
must necessarily follow on dissolution. The lock-
