which he had acccded to Office, and respecting the
future policy which he proposed.

any conspiracy to eject the late administration from
office The resignation of ministers, Che said,) and
the summons to him to wait on the Queen were al
together unanticpated bis part. but when these
events did take place he felt 1t his duty 10 undertake
the formation of government.
In the course of week he had succeeded in form
ing Cabinet which met the Queens approval and
now stood for the judgment of the country Pass
ing to the proposed policy of the new Government
he observed that with regard to the Foreign Depart
ment, the same policy had been pursued by Britain
for the past thirty years differing only in some slight
degree as to the mode of execution.
That policy was to admit the perfect freedom and
independence of every country of Europe whatever
form of Government it might choose to adopt: and
especially to maintain peace. At the same time the
Government were not disposed to relax those meas

might seem to require.
The commercial system which they proposed

In conclusion Lord Aberdeen regretted that the
Earl of Derby was hostile to the new Cabinet-and
ended by moving that the House adjourn till Febru-

ediice in the country. 1t covers, the ground
floor, two and half acres and with the galleries
she whole space is four acres. The masonwork is

is contracted for large part of the castings de-

steadily We intend we have already stated
