a promine,pt Colonml reforms he lms clrondy fulfilled it to the uttermost of his power within the time, by making Lord Grey Colonial Minister and

and Me Baller. For this act Lord John Ruspli will obtain some of that credit which is first now the roost conspicuous feather in Bir Robert Peels cap, he will be honoured for having inado a per- sal sacrifice to the public service. For Lord John Russell's reputation as a practical statesma rest chiefly on his brief administration of the Co- lonial Office, and there can be no doubt that if he had now placed at the head of that department a person not conversant with Colonial questions, and had himself as Primer Minister directed the changes of policy and prattice which were at all events ine- vitable, he would have consulted his own immediate fatereat more than he has done by handing over the task to Lord Grey. The changes would have been less complete and valuable, but they would have been Lord John Russell's Considering Lord trey's intimate acquaintance with the subject in

its two main divisions of Colonization and Govern- .ment of Colantes, his settled and proclaimed opi- nions, his industry, and the earnestness not to sEY wilfulness of his character, we may be very anie that he will put his own mark on whatever may be done. The Russell Government and the public will gain by the superior efficiency of the Office under Lord Grey as an instrument of Coloutal re form; but Lord John Rossell individually will not gain the particular increase of reputation which be might have secured. He would find, however, if he could get at Sir Robert Peel's feelings at this time, that the other sort of fame is by much the more agreeable' of the two; not to mention the comfortable whispers of an approving conscience,

The public-spirit evinced by Lord John Rüssel? in this matter seems to pervade the arrangements by which the new Colonial. Office has been coin. posed, If Lord Grey had thought only of himself, he would have chosen an Under Secretary from the numerous class of "sticka"; would have performed himselfs he is very capable of doing, all the most important business within the office; and would hove monopolized the pleasant work of planning improvements and expounding them in Parliament. He would not have deliberately shared with others an occupation so sure to be agreeable to a man ot his ambition and capricity. He oiting an Under- Secretary known for laborious habils, and for ha- ving opinions of his own on all the questions which the present Colonial Office will have to decide, Those opinions, it is true, are the same as Lord Grey's; but Mr Hawes has a position in the House of Commons which will enable him to give utter- ance to his views, and take an important share in, making the public acquainted with the policy, the objects, and the plans, of the new Colonial Office whilst his habits of business and unusual powers of labour must procure him work and consequence in Downing Street.

Lord Grey and Mr Hawes would have been a

capital Colonial Office without help from any body

else they appear to have concurred in wishing to make a perfect one, by giving to Mr Charles Boller, that large share of the work in hand, and of the honour of its success, which must necessarily, under the arrangement they have made with him, fall to one as familiarly versed as he is in Coloniaf subjects, and whose name je even more before the public in connexion with these subjects than either ofabours.

We cannot relp enying that it is a stri king proof of freedom from jealousy of disposition on the part of Lord Grey and Mr Hayes, lo huve wished that Mr Buller should be associated with them in the performance of their official and Par liamentary duties. Mr Hawes, Jo partic är might have been excused as a son of Adam for trecting tends to to an arrangement which so obvioust

e in the diminish his merely personal conseque House of Commons, and of which the suggestion would have been taken as an affront by the com mon run of aspiring politiciana. One observes now and then a pectita Jealousy as Nelson
