Sir ROBERT PEEL sent an epistle to Mr. lIrmE last

night, of the kind commonly esteemed warlike, in consequence of the caustic remarks of the latter gentleman, in the Irish debate of the evening, on the Premier's political dishonesty : and the correspondence blazes this morning in the Times. Mr. HUME disavows in his reply, as lie did in the House, any intention to impute personally dishonourable conduct to Sir ROBERT PEEL; and there the matter ends. But what silly peevishness does not this display in Sir ROBERT ? If he cannot bear to be taunted with his weathercock politics, why does he not move straight forward and eschew trickery ? It is very cheap bravery to attack Mr. HrSIE, who for twenty years has treated the braggadocios of the House with uniform contempt,—taking care at the same time, more than perhaps any other public man, to avoid giving occasion for such ebul- litions of mortified ill-temper as Sir ROBERT PEEL has just displayed in his case, and a short time ago in that of Dr. LUSIILNGToN—an Ecclesiastical Judge!
