Kentucky Gazette And General Advertiser

LONDON, November 5.

It had been repeatedly stated, from very authentic sources of information, that some important changes would be made in the cabinet before the meeting of the parliament. We are again assured that this will actually be the case. Lord Moria, it is very generally believed in the higher political circles will be the secretary for the war department—Mr. Sheridan too will have an office, and it would perhaps surprise most people if he were to be announced as the treasurer of the navy, but such an arrangement we have actually heard mentioned with considerable confidence. In this general introduction of the old opposition into power, it is now shrewdly suspected that Mr. Fox will not be overlooked. Mr. Sheridan has often pledged himself that he never would take an office but with that gentleman; and, recollecting this declaration and the very confident manner in which Mr. Sheridan's speedy appointment to some high office is talked of, we are led to conclude that the supposition of Mr. Fox's coming into power may not altogether be unfounded.

We shall pronounce no opinion upon these rumoured events till they shall have actually taken place. It is the general received opinion that Mr. Addington must endeavour to strengthen himself before the meeting of parliament, to which he will have so large an account to render; but if he so endeavours to strengthen himself it will be well worthy his consideration what may, nay, what must be the feelings and sentiments of the public.
