English MINIsTRY.-Th new Min
istry in England is of a superior charac-
ter, and embraces some Of the most en-
inent English statesmen in subordinate
stations. Aberdeen, the Premier, is
we'll known for enlarged views and great
talents. Palmerston, whose name is as
sociated in all Europe with the Fore ign
Office has consented to bury himself in
the Home office, while Russell, the for
merly distinguished Premier takes the
Foreign Secretaryship. The French
Empire will undoubtedly be entirely Of
filiated with by this cabinet as one rea-
son for Palmerston's former dismissal
was his expression in favor of the coup
fetot There is character and talent
enough in the new cabinet to give it a
long life, and the recent shuffling ad-
ministration will add dignity and i'm
portance by contrast But the new
ministry is mere coalition after all.
among men who differ not merely in
names, but in the deepest rooted prin-
ciples 1t will not greatly surprise the
world if the administration is n warm
and short one. The Earl of DERBY
has expressed an intention in the House
of Lords to oppose the measures of the
new ministry, alleging that his own was
undermined by conspiracy.
The following compose the new cabi-
