RESIGNATION OF MINISTERS.

It will be seen. by a reference to the proceedings in the House of Ceutrnoue, last I" ht, that the Ministry sustained a defeat in a divi- sion on their Militia Bill. Lord Palmerston, on the first introduction ofthe Iteesure, intimated his intention of ntalting a sweeping change is the working of the scheme. Instead of the force being lot:al,—— that is to say, confined to the district where it was raised. as the Government msasue ivtteeded,—-he wished to make it pcranibula- hr , not confinin it to England, but extendin it to Scotland or Irénd, or ind to any part of the three kiitloms tltat necessity Ilght warrant. This oposition formed t e substance of his

' lltevtdment last eight. and although stoutly resisted by the Govern- ment. '

”. Palmerston carried his proposition by a majority of I36 I I

‘ride unexpected defeat induced Sir Benjtimin Hall to ask the

what course he intended to pursue. The answer of Lnr

John Russell was, that, hnviitg lost the confidence ofthe llouse, he it his duty to resign, and today, no doubt, in pursuntice of this ‘ _e_rtnination, he will place his r tioti in the hands of Her

'-.V- . t is needless ‘to speculate here on the important events to which Illt night's division must, of necessity, give rise. But it is not a HIIO eittgttlar, that the full of the Russell Ministry is mainly, if not solely, attributable to the mart wbunt Lord Johtt Russell ejected so recently from his Cabinet. At the same titiie, it is clear that other causes must have been at work to produce so unexpected a result. The growing utipopulurlly of the I’reitiier‘s new Reform Bill has shown. for several do s past. that on that shoal the Ministry would Ilevihbly have been shipwrecked ; but they have anticipated events "y it resignation on an uitiniportaitt and not at all ltumiliating pttinl. Who will succeed them .’ is It nuestion easily asked, but ditlicult, .& present position ‘ , to answer. ~0t' comes, Lord leteretoa assuming the lend its the present Cabinet, trite Lord John Russell, is out of_ the question. The sarcastic allusion which

' the retiritt Minister mitde last night to Lord Pitlmerstott, amidst the

cheers an laughter of the House, ititlictttee pretty unmistakably his feeliri on this point. The choice than lies between Lord Derby and ir James Graham. _ If the rumored coalition Itoctweon that Iobletuae and the member for 'I'iverton be correct, the opportunity new presents itself for making the experiment. But Lord John is “cunning of fence," and there is just a possiliility that, calculating on the weakness of his anttigotiivtts, lie is rig.-tiii playing the ittiitisterial Iltterregntiin "dotIge” which so successfully strengthened his posi- tion in the early part of last year. 'l‘lie few days of excitoiiii.-nt and Iuaiety which must follow will test the nature of hi» tactics.

PUBLICATION OF I..I'IGISL.-ITIVE DEBATES.

Vic beg leave to iiifortn our correspondent “ A Subscriber," whose letterhve have given above, that we rrtake a point of publish- irtg every Legislative Debate, just as it is given in to us, by the Reporters; but, owing to the division of “copy" which takes place amongst the dill'erent Printing Ollices. mistakes and omissions sonietimes unavoidably occur. The only way to prevent such errors, would be to give in all the Reports, in their regular order, to one Ollice, and to allow them to remain there, till published in the Paper of that Ollice. As it is, e ates or portions of debates get astray, or are, parliiipa, altogether lost; and no one can be fairly held responsible for their omission in the papers.
