The King yesterday delivered the Great Seal to Lord Lyndhurst
; do, for the present, will perform the functions both of Lord Chan- cellor and Lord Chief Baron.
Marquis Wellesley is recalled ; and the Lord Primate (a Beresford), the Commander in-Chief, and the Chief Justice of the King's Bench, are appointed Lords Justices of Ireland. It is stated in the Dublin correspondence of the Times, that Mr. Blackburn and Mr. O'Loghlen, the Irish Attorney-General and Solicitor-General, resigned their posts on Tuesday. The resignation of the former created some surprize, as he is believed to be of the Orange- Tory party. Lord Chancellor Plunkett announced his retirement from the bench on Wednesday, and stated that Sir Charles Wetherell was to be his successor.
