and an adjourned debate upon the first reading 0,
Lord John Russell's proposed measures against
Papal encroachment, are the home topics of the
week. There was general feeling last night, in
the clubs, that the very small majority of the mi
nistry would have been still less The whig mi
nistry may last another session, but men express
their doubts as to its duration beyond. Lord

l6ped by himself in clever speech, which, as it
came to close, ended in nothing, has disappointed
the country and after his memorable letter to the
Bishop of Durham, they are looked upon as con
temptble by the great mass The measures them
selves however are not yet known in detail

idea is epheHeral. In a remarkable speech last
night, Sir James Graham apty quoted the words of

tails.
In the Commons. on Friday, Lord John Russell

Of William the Conquerer down TO the present day,
