Thcs RECONSTRUCTED Cabinet OF England
How II Assumed Its Present Shape.
from the London Times, Fob. %
The process by which Lord Palmsrston's admnistra-
ton has assumed it's present shape Is so extremely SIN
gular that hardly know in what language to describe
the employed or the object attained. Viewed
a whole the complicated political transactions which

airy, and end with Lord John Rnsses acceptance of
subordinate position in Lord palmerstons Cabinet on
the 23d OF February are not calculated to raise the
character Of public men, or to command the confidence
Of the country. In substance, the effect Of these
combinations had absorbed, and to ab,orb what
they had rejected-to destroy whatever had
been done in the last two, year: towards the
enlarged basis and to throw back the highest Offices in
the State into the exclusive circle Of Brookess. Lord
