Political Changes.
Five years ago the liberal or often styled radical majority in the Storthing succeeded in having their political opponents in the Government impeached before the high court of the Kingdom, whose judges were partly appointed by themselves, and sentenced to forfeit their seats. Since then the majority has been dwindling down to a small minority, and their former leader with his whole cabinet was some days ago obliged to hand the Government over to a new conservative ministry.
