•'That's ii. perilous shot but" of an elder gun," which the leader of the opposition has just-firecl, and if it does •not ikaock j the Government over, it will only he because it was badly aimed, and backed with very little ■ppwfler/' 'Jfd have endeavored without' succe^'io'cliscoverinit.some palpable grounds ;on [which his policy, far as it is revealed, differs from'ltliat ojt : M Ministry.
