ENGLAND,
After the Derby Cabinet had resigned Lord
Granville was first summoned by the Queen, but
could not form a Ministry.
II seems the old cabinet assembled on Saturday,
and determined to place their resignation in the
hands Of the Queen, which having been done,
formal announcement was made by Lord Derby
at the banquet Of the Merchant TailOr's Com pany
at which several Of the ministers were present.
Lord Granville. after an audience of the Queen,
waited upon Lord Palmerston, who consented to
waive his claims and serve under Lord Granville;
but in his interview with Lord Russell, Lord
Granville found him disposed to insist on condi-
tOnS which made q union with Lord Palmerston
impossible, whether the Government was presided
over by Lord Granville or any other.
The Queen being satisfied that Lord Granville
was the only obstacle to the union of Lords Pal
merstOn and Russell, sent for Lord Palmerston,
who had one hours interview with Her Majesty,
| and then straightway sought one with Lord Rus
sell, who agreed to serve under him, but not under
any other person.
The Times says that Russell is an ardent friend
OF Italy, and that both he and Palmerston want
Austria TO admit her defeat, her ascertained in
| feriofity and the incurable disadvantage Of her
position south of the Alps. Both are Of the opin-
| ion that she would consult her own greatness by
| relinquishing territory which costs great army
| and still greater odium.
