The Standard to-night informs us that Lord CASTLERF.AGII (name of
evil omen !) has been appointed Vice-Chamberlain, and the Honour- able HENRY CORRY Comptroller of the Household. The needy Earl of CHESTERFIELD was offered the Mastership of the Buck Hounds ; which it is said that his brother-in-law Lord FORESTER, the son of GEORGE the Fourth's meanest parasite, has obtained. Mr. CORRY is the son of Lord BELMORE, who figured at the late Orange meeting in Tyrone. GOULBURN, KNATCHBULL, RODEN, PEItCEVAL, CASTLE- REAGH, COREY !—In addition to this, it is mentioned in the Standard that Mr. LEFROY and Mr. FREDERICK SHAW are to be made Irish Privy Councillors ! Why is not the Duke of CUMBERLAND Lord- Lieutenant ?—But Lord HADDINGTON, the ci-devant Lord BINNING, Will be sufficiently accommodating. Earl DE GREY, it seems, was in vain implored by Sir ROBERT PEEL to take the Viceroyalty. This shows a glimmering of sense in his Lordship, as well as in his friend the Orange Earl of ENNIKISLLEN.
