REINSTATEMENT OF THE PEEL
MINISTRY

MINISTRY.
But while attention was fixed upon the dra-
mats persona, the public were astounded by
learning that the attempt had been made, and
had taed-that the leaders could not agree
amongst themselves, and that all was chaos once
more. 1t subsequently transpired that Lord
Grey had caused the hitch, by refusing to Join
The Cabinet if Lord Palmerson held the seals of
the Foreign Office, and the Wing papers were
savage with his lordship for keeping in the dark
his feeling toward the late Foreign Secretary
until he could strike him most effeciuaIly That
The blow was unlocked for i'm the quarter from
which it proceeded seems undeniable but that
cause, IN Itself 50 apparently trfling, should have
broken up Cabinet, and produced results so
momenious, shows clearly enough that the EN-
bryO Ministers had not their hearts in tho work.
They must have deeply felt the responsibility,
the perlOusness, nay, The hopelessness, of the
task, when The opinion of single member was
sufficient to snuff the experiment out Of existence
Lord PalmerstOn's exclusion from the Foreign
Office, by Government of which Lord John
Russell was the head. coult NOT have been calcu-
lated on (; il would have involved censure of the
noble lords's policy while he held the office, and
would have been regarded as a public condemna
ton Of one of the ablest statesmen the Wings
have in their ranks
Nevertheless, considering that Lord Palmer
stOn, before he'left Office did embroil himself and
was nearly embroiling his country with France
considering, too, that his resumption of power,
at The present moment, would, in the nature of
things, have rendered the settlement of our diff
culles with the United States more perplexeJ
and uncertan-we may, under all the crcum-
stances, rejoice that we have been spared the in.
Fiction.
When Lord John Russell threw IN his cares.
there was no alternative but to send for Peel and
the most extraordinary move in this drama of
Cdbinet-nlGking is, that he felt apparent hesta
ton in resuming the office, as he evinced prompt
ness in throwing ii up. His resumption Of power
Immediately made itself felt in every branch Of
trade. Confidence, which had been shattered by
the railway panic, became paralyzed when it was
known that Peel was OUT the markets fell, the
funds sunk, business was suspended, and gloom.
mist, hung over the commercial and trading
world. These evils are fast subsiding with the
causes which called them into existence.
Upwards Of ten days have elapsed since it be-
came known that Peel was again Premier, and
every day has shown improved symptoms in the
produce, share, money. and other markets This
change appears the more e1traordinory. from the
fact that its future policy is az much The matter
OF speculation as the new comet-eyen more un-
defined, undeveloped. Nobody knows what Peel
will debut every one has confidence in Peel--a

MR.. BANCROFT AND THE CoRN-TRADE
IL is amusing to sec how the federal prints siuldfy
themselves, and presume upon their readers in order
to rake up sort Of material for attack on the
administration. Here is the last sad joke of the
kind. The New York Courier thus rcpublishes
and comments upon absurd story Of London
tory journal, the StaadGd-the well-known "Mrs,
Harris" Qhe Herald being the HMn. Gamp'D OF
the British press;
"The London Standard of the 30th ult says:
Lord j. Russell and Lord Cottenham, al the cabinet
council, Wednesday, urged earnestly the consti-
tuliooal necessity Of an early session. 10 obtain a
parliamentary sanction for the reduction OF the As.
duty imported grain. The council broke up
without coming TO any defnitive resolution Al the
meeting of the ministers, on Thursday, the subject
resumed, and on this latter occasion the oppo-
nents Of an early session had the adoantsgs Of Mn. Ban
erofls arrival from the United States, with intelligence
that the supply Of grain collected in the American
ports for expectation is so ample as 10 render ex-
uemely improbable the necessity for reduction Of the

England as minister from the United States, TO

g#..I From the N. o. Picayune Extra, Nov. II.
IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO EXICAN
LETTERS OF MARQUEE a...

Information has been received in this city Of the
fact that the steamer Tay, in its last trip from Vera
Cruz to Havana, took out three hundred letters o.
marque, with naturalization papers comforting the
rights and privileges of Mexican citizens upon all
who would sail under them. This information
comes in an authentic form. 1t was expressed from
Mexico on the evening Of the 3Oh ult, and reached
Vera Cruz in time for the Tay the vessel in which
the letters Of marque mailed, by which il was
taken to Havana, and thence il was brought here
by the late arrival.
A letter from Havana has also been received an.
nouncng the arrival there Of those letters of marquc
The writer was Of theopinion that the Spanish gov
eminent would not permit the letters TO be used in
the port of Havana, but adds, as naturalization pa
pers offering extraordinary privileges accompany
them, it is probable of them may slip out upon
our commerce despite Of the vigilance of the author

DISPATCHES FROM THE SQUADRON,

DESPATChES fHOM The oe<uhDfNoN'
At late hour this evening we received the official
reports from the squadron, which lay before our
readers In another column. They add another
most brilliant and successful incident in the official
records of the war; and in this instance il is our
gallant navy that uiumphs. The attack Of commo-
dore Perry appears to have been admirably planned
and executed We have had time as yet only TO
gissa passing glance to the dispatches, and we
must reserve moro extended comment upon them
Till tomorrow evening.
The country viii learn with profound sorrow
that this achievement full Of success and honor as
it is, has yet our nation and our naval service
the life Of Of its most gallant and accomplished
young officers, Lieutenant Morris, bearing name
already eminenty distinguished in the riumphs Of
navy. He has given to that name, in his death Of
heroic duty ane devotion, new and more SORROW
ful renown. His countrymen will mourn his fate,
while they remember his patriotic valor with graft
tn de and pride. ..

HONOR TO THE BRAVE.

Some FIVE or six hundred citizens Of Washington
assembled last evening at Odd Fellows Hail. almost
without previous notice, to determine the most APP
propriate method of extending publ: welcome to
Col. s. III. Walker, the second in mmand of Col.
Jack Hays's regiment of Texas Rangers who reach
ed this city This former honey on the evening be-
fore last. The proceedings of the meeting were
characterized by glowing enthusiasm in behalf
Of country's cause, and evinced deep
Of admiration and respect for the public sery
ces of the gallant young Washingtonian on the part
of his late feIlow-citizens The hall rang, and
rang again, in response to encomiums upon the
deeds of Walker and the army of Gen. Taylor,
which fell from the lips of Messrs. d. Radcliffe, c.
s. Wallach, Hartman, w. d. Walach, J. H.
Bradley, Thomas, and Colonel VIM. w. Seaton,
who, having been called out, successfully ad-
dressed the meeting. On invitation, Colonel
Walker attended, and received the respects Of
all present. who passed his position on the stand in
line DHe thanked the meeting in few words for
the honor thus conferred on him, and modestly de-
clarcd that, having but performed his duty a cit
izen-soldier, he was at loss to perceive in what
manner he was more entitled to such testimonial
tnan tnousanus now serving III MEXICO.
Although Col. w. discaimed speech-making, we
must be permitted to say that his few but appro-
pirate remarks were admirably conceived and ex.
pressed. He said not a word too much, nor one
too little, and left on the minds Of all present the
impression that his modesty is no less remarkable
than his military skill and success. ..
We understand that Col w. is forced, by press
ing duties, to decline the honor of ball or other
public demonstration rendered on this occasion.
