POLITICAL REVOLUTION IN
ENG LAND l
The Genius offit-form has slmktsn his wand o-
ver Great Britain, and the Duke of \Vclliugton
' and his colleagues have .bt-en driven from their
pltscr-s by theirrcsistible fr rce ofpublic opinion»
uml the Whigs have obtained full possession of
the strongholds of patronage, power, and plact-.
This resignation is the most tmpotnntt event,
tiiath-as omrurred in the year 1830-bol«lly ns
this year will stand out in relief on the page of
history.
In onlt-r to give our remit-ran clear umlz~.rstnn-
' dint: oftbe circumstances which brought ubou.
this itnpovlautevteut we are ololigetl to go bnclt:
;,, mg 2d or November, the day the King's speech
was (lt:li‘Vt‘l'Cil, and trace the events in the order
of tneir occurrence. That Speech was received
with much tlissatisfuction by the peopl-1. ' he}
saw no promise ofreform-—-but only at threat in
dteci-led tertnu, ofthe employment of power to
put down the attticipated etfervesrace of popular
feeling. ".l‘llt-y also snw,orthought tht-._v saw. an
intimation nflhe po.-sihility that England might
soon be again eutanglvd in the impending quar-
rels ofEt.trope, in the and leading to war. This
gave great otfence. But there was mtlch previ-
otn :.ttaspt-ration, for on going down to I’.-trl n-
rneut in tltttnulance upon the King, to 0j)t'll the
sestsion,tln-. Duke was insulted in the streets tn
the must aggravated manner. I
Alter tht- do-livery oflhis Sneeclt an animated
_ debate took place in the Hottsr of l.ords,in which
among other tltings tln Duke of lvt‘llitlg‘lOIltSp0lit'
in rletitled termsttgailtst the project ofa Reform
in Parliament, on which subject he dt:r1:ttcd that
“ England possessed at the present tl.1D|tl(‘lll
_a it-gislsttllrt. which answeral all the good purpos-
es of It-gis1:.~t'nn, and this too ;,rr..aterllegrec than
any legislature ha-l eve-r answered in any coun-
try whatever, and ifhe had to form a new om-
lng trnttltl estahli.h it on the same: principles "
Earl Grey spoke in opposition to |i:<.‘ §'rt_-micr
as well as many other tiistiltgttislletl rltr-.nlbcr5t.
among them some who had till now in-,en of the
mt. i-terial party, one of whom t‘cttt5lI'liC(lll1:tt
the present Ministers had not the confidence of
the country, especially of'tht- protestant part Of;
tht-community: and that it was their duty to atl-
‘ vise His Majesty oflhe m-cesssit_v of placing tin-
government in the hands ofmr-rt of more political
honesty, integrity and capability. For his part
he hoped soon to see another set of men in their
place, for they -Cnltltl not hold nflice without en-
dangering all the "institutions of the country.
The next most impo.tant cause of r:xc’itt'.mcnt
against the Pretnier was the course which he put‘,
met! in relation to the King's visit to London. the
-most extensive preparation for which, it will he
rtvncmbered, lntd been made by the civil author-
ities and the people, nearly $800 dollars having
-‘been paid in one instance for the first door of a
house well situated to give It full view oflhe pro.
cession.
The ffcte was to have taken place on the 9th of
Nov. but in consequence of the Premier‘: speech I
above alluded to, so great wa- the popula r indig-

reception might be dangt-rot-.3 to his personal
safety, wrote to him, begging him to be on his

The alarm was treated as gl'0Ull=.ll8Ss bv the

The German papets which arrived this
morning, state that at Russian army to the
number of‘.‘.00.000 mt-n,divided into seven
corps, with the 400 pieces of cannon, is
assembling on the frontiers; but it is decla-
red that the object is merely to make a de-
monstration for the pun pose --ftnaitnaining
peace. This may be true ; but after the
cxpe-rience of the Cordon Sanitaire, we do
not place much faith in the pacific assur-
ance, when connected with warlike prep-
arations; brsides, it is adnlilletl that the
conlinuanco of peace will depend upull
certain prncnediugs in London, and guar-
antees for the good behaviour of the Fr.
Government. The French, howevet,are
not idle : a large army will soon be ready
for the fiultl, and the first lloetilo demon.-
strati-tn against Belgium will be the signal
for pourillg masses of enthusiastic French-
men into Italy, and ovorrunning Austria.
We do not believe that the Emperocfiol
Russia and his intntediate Allies will tempt
the chances of such a contest. The cont-
mand oftlto Russian army is entrusted to

great judgment in the war with the Turks,
