THOMAS LITHIUM:M.4 motion being discussed. After a good deal of debate, it was determined, that individual :Nlembeta might, if they d-enied lit proper, express their particular opinions on the subject; but that as a body, the Opposition should not vote either fur or against the proposition of the Honourable Barone, Sir Famicts Hooper:, in a very manly speech, recommended a direct negative to a motion which, whatever its abstract character might ba, could have no other. than an invidious and mischievous object, coming from such a quarter as the Ultra Member for Sotnersetshire. While, however, the correctness of this view of the question was generally admitted, it was thought most expedient to treat the affair with indif. ference. The withdrawal of the motion by Sir Lewnsainoe rendered it unnecessary to act upon either ut these views of the cue.-7144 _ _  Nothing has yet been resolved on respecting the appointment of a Governer-General for India. The impediments arising from the state of the Ministry, combined with other causes, have, in fact, rendered the period when the determination may take place so extremely uncertain, that a request has, we understand; been sent out to Lord Amnesic, to delay his relinquishment of Aim beyond the time which his Lordship originally need (we believe the end of the present year), in order chat the necessary arrangements for the appointment of his succvasor may be completed without inconvenience. The coiucidence of the three Prediesel's being vacant at the same time, and the pustible injury to the public service from the appointment simultaneously of three individuals new to office, is supposed to have furnished another inducement for postponing the appointment to the ChlefPresideney.-16.
