It is stated demi-officially that Mr. Cavendish Bentinck will be-

Judge-Advocate-General, and that Mr. Stanhope willencceed him as Secretary to the Board of Trade. The object of that curious shuffle would seem to be to keep the Board of Trade straight next Session, when shipping matters will be again to the fore, without asking Sir C. Adderley to resign. It does not signify who is Judge Advocate-General, as the Deputy, is able to coach anybody. The arrangement is adroit, especially if Sir C. Adderley is to go to the Peers, but it is rather a waste of. Mr. Stauhope.. The Tories do not pick up a Conservative aristocrat who can speak every, day.
