porters, and the Earl of Derby, in like man
ner, had summoned ,as the leader of the con-
servatives) meeting of the heads of that par
ty, to deliberate on their respective tactics.-
Both meetings were held on Monday, the

porters of government, with a sprinkling of
the Independents. The Peel party were alb
sent altogether, and the Independent Irish
Roman Catholic members were not invited. -

Palmerston made speech an hour long, re-
viewing his policy and inviting support, es-
pecially in the pending debate on Kars; 9TH
erwise he must resign office. No mention
appears TO have been made of American af-
fairs. Several members spoke, and Mr..
Phillimore consented, at the urgent request
of Lord Palmer ston, to withdraw his motion
for committee of inquiry into the Kars catas-
trophe.

argued or its own merits.
