with Mr. Gladstone In reference to the recent ap-
p0intment OF Sir Robert Collier to seat III the Ju-
dicial Committee Of the Privy Council In his nrst

Mr. Gladstone refers the question to the Lord
Chancellor, Lord Hatherley. ana speaks OF the
transaction as "a joint one;" but the defence Is
most lame. for 1t cannot be doubted that the I'M
necessary appointment or Collier as Judge of Com
mon Pleas made that the incumbent might
pass on, without dischargng any of the duties-ex-
cept, perhaps, drawing q salary for doing nothing
TO become judicial member OF the Privy Council.
LOru Hatherley Is n0t0riously ready on all occa-
sions to vindcatc the government. and now he is
not loath to justify what everywhere and by all
parties styled dsrcputable job. The letters OF Sir
A. Cockburn are masterpieces OF their kind and
manly and vigorous IN their defence OF the pre-.
negatives OF justice

NJ. Rouher Is here In London. The French gov

always reserved, but reference to it suggests that
