On the first page Ct The Inquirer is letter from its
Fortr Monroe correspondent, giving certain items,
among which are list OF sick and wounded brought

supposed that public presses in this age of the world
would give expression to quite much demonism as

The Enquirer's London spondent under date of
the 7th, ventates strange piece of gossip, of
da ccordiDg to which OF the the reader may
take bat showing, il either view be true upon what ap
parenty slight hinges the gravcst Affairs OF nations may
turn, even in this late age Of the world.
The affair stated is this About the beginning of
this month the Pamerston ministry 10 great danger
of defeat The opposition By means Of various coal
tions, bad obtained clear majority in the House of
Commons, and defeat OF the ministry klaciny it in
euch position that it must resign deemed inevita
bic, when suddenly the programme changed, and
the ministry sustained by an overwhelming vote
This is explained by the statement that almost at the
very last moment it ascerained officially or at
least authoritatively that the Qeen had determined in
OF dissolution, to entrust the formation of neW
government only to Earl Russell This was contingent
cy for which tie opposition not prepared rather
they would prefer LORD PALMERsToN as Premier to
LORD JOHN. Their triumph would have been barren
one, rather less than that for Earl R1ssel at the
head of the Government, would be infinitely worse than
Earl Russell where he is He is perhaps the most un-
popular in all England among the politicians and
certainly would long ago have been in private e but
for the personal attachment OF the Queen Who is
sivey fond Of him. 50 much so that 10 past years, rot
things have been said and written respecting their Pa-
tonic attachment Scandal hints that it is this attach
ment which influences the Queens course while on the
other hand it is not unreasonable to suppose that the
Queen is only DESTROYS to avoid the anxiety and confu
sion into which she must necessarily be plunged by
dissolution of the Cabinet and perhaps of Parliament.
At any rate the administration has escaped for the
time, but feels that its tenure is precarious The Fed
eral authorities pleased at finding Russell and Pal
merston retained in Office since they believe they under.
standing them BETTER and have more to hope and less
to fear from them than they would from a ministry
beaded by the Earl of Derby.
