The Senate was not in session to-day; and our
report OF the proceedings of the House is reuc-
family made to give place to the more engrossing
news by the steamship Cambria. The bill in rela-
ton to constructive mileage was passed without
amendment, and the residue Of the day was devO-
ted to the consideration OF private bills.

Satisfaction.
OPENING OF PARLIAMENT.
In the House Of Commons on the first night of
the session. the ministerial and the opposition lead
ers both volunteered explanations on the crcum-
stances which led to the late ministerial crisis
These explanations now belong to history. Their
interest is merged in the still greater plans for the
future which the financial scheme of the premier hae
developed. The personal feelings and jealousies of
public men only interesting to the world in pro-
portion they bear upon and inluence the great
questions in which the world takes an interest
Enough remains to show that the present cabinet
before its dissolution, was the scene Of very pro-
tracted and IL would appear not very amicable con-
troversy, on the great topic Of the peoples food
The result sent poor Lord Wharneliffe to his last
account and Lord Stanley to the opposition benches
Having been thus purged OF the irritation the re-
naming component parts Of the cabinet united again
as cordially as II nothing had occurred to their
harmony.
Peel, il would seem, supported by two or three Of
his colleagues wished to open the ports for the ad-
mission or corn, duty free, when the potato disease
became alarming. The majority Of the cabinet OPP
posed his views, and finding their differences only
widened by discussion, they went in a body 10 the
Isle Of Wight, where the Queen was then staying,
and placed their resignation in her hands. The
subsequent results are patent TO the world. Lord
| John Russell was conhded the task Of forming a
cabinet, which broke down through the difference
between Lords Grey and Pamerston. Our repub-
lican readers who take an interest in the style OF
communication between the sovereign and her adj
visers for the time being, will peruse the notes
which the present and the expecian, premier adj
dressed to her Majesty during the ministerial inter
| regnum. The grammatical construction OF the notes
has undergone much ortur. by the Sun reporters o.
| the rival statesmen in the press
