Active preparations for the gooiest were in pro cress throughout yesterday ; and large meetings of electors were convened at Peatonville end the Tower Runlets, sail addressed at length by Mr. Boreal Osborne. The feeling ' in favour of that gentleman appears mast satisfactory ; and from his speech at Pentoarilla it appears that he is himself convinced that there is no lack of cordiality towards him on the part of Lord Robert Grosvenor. There to reason 'Leto believe that the Middlesex elector who are at a die- tante from the metropolis will not be wantiag is the snug. gle, gnat numbers of them having ezpressed their willing. nem and determin►tion to come early to the poll. It is almost needless to old that the poll will open early th:s morning. A meeting of electors of Middlesex was held yesterday morning, at noun, at the Belvidere Tavern, Pen. tonville, to promote the return of the liberal candidates for the county. Both the candidates had been invited to attend, but only Mr. Bernal Osborne was present. The room. which u capacious, was crowded arkh an 'seer and enthusiastic ►udience. Mr. $OOl/ii CONLI/P1 a:espial she chair. The CHAIRMAN mid Mr.Osbonte's votes ia paellament had always been perfectly satisfactory to himself as a dis seater ; and he trusted that the gmt majotity of the elec. tors could prove racially on the (snowing day that they had viewed them in the same light. He hoped that not • single vote would be given to the tory by any man paha ing liberal principles. (Hear, hear; and • Voic•--" No plunspers.") Every man should feel as though the election depended on himself. There was no time to be lost. The efforts on the other side were strong and continuous; and it became liberals to imitate the energy of their opponents, in niter that toryism and protection might he crushed for ever. (" Hear, hear," and cheers.) Mr. B. OSBORNE, on rising, bads most cordial met ing. After apokiguwag fee hoarseness, peodueed, he said, by his difficulties at the hustings on Saturday, he said the grounds of the contest which was in progress were now pretty evident ; and he would fairly state that if any man more known in prink-al life, or any man of great commer cial renown connected with the county, could hate been persuaded to come forward and fight the battle, he would have retired in his favour. (No, uo.) Yes, he would have retired, because he would never, in order to further his own petty ambition, compromise the int. rests and progress of the *Teat liberal came. (Cheers.) But no such maa could be found willing to come ferwmed. He was perfectly sea bible of his owe demerits; he well knew that he had not that fortune or that kind of connexion with Middlesex which would enable him on these grounds to claim their support. But when he saw • nobleman brought forward who was still lees connected with the county than he was (hear, hear) whose only claim to support was that his Rama, was Pen si,t,cl upon the public purse—C" hear, hear," and siseen)—who endeavoured to gain support on false pre tenets, and who pretended that be was peculiarly adapted to represent the protestant cause in parliament; and that he (Mr. Osborne) was an advocate of what was called papal aggression, he could not for a moment hesitate to engage in the struggle, and sa, et him on those grounds. His opponent had been put forward by a small section of the Middlesex magistrates as an advocate of sound constitutional priori ples,anct on the grout .1 of high personal character, while it R 4,9 objected to lam (Mr. Osborne) that he had on every occasion given his votes and made speeches in favour of papal aggression. A report had even been spread about— ' and he was ashamed of men who could be parties to such misstatements—that be was a member of the church of Rome. New, he happened to be a member of the church of England; but he was not one of those members of at wbe thought they had got all the truth to themselves,. (" Hear, hear, hear ," and corers.) He conceded to those who dissented from that church the same right as be claimed for himself—the right of private judgment—(cheers)— and he would never be a party to the placing of • stigma on • man because he did not worship an his own church. (Cheers.) Now what had been his coons with regard to the much vexed question of Maynooth, which was now putting this country ir. filmes ? When the question was brought forward by Sir Robert Peel in 1845, be voted apnea the pertain :at endowment of Maynooth out of the Consolidated Fund ; he also voted in favour of Mr. Ward's motion to the ettect that if any such endowment was made, it should be out of the fungi of the Irish church. He voted in the minority on that occasion, and it was due to Lord Robert Grosvenor to say that he took the same course. (Cheers.) It had been said that Lord Robert Ureevenor was not well inclined to him in this election ; that his lord ship. being • kinsman of Lord Derby, felt little interest in his (Mr. Osborne's) success. Now to that statement he begged to give the most distinct deaial. (Ilea.) Lord Robert Oros venor had coalesced with him most enterely—(chcers)—and be had to thank him for the kind and cordial co-operation which he had conceded to him in fighting the battle of pro gress. (Cheers.) Such having been his coune with regard to Maynooth, he must say hears surprised that a member of the aristocracy should hare lent himself to such a mesa and false cry as that he was a supporter of the endowment of klaynooth. (Hear, hear.) Why, would it be believed that the gentleman who took this course was himself a sup , porter of Maynooth, himself voted for permanently endow tag Maynooth out of the consolidated fund ? (Hear, hear.) He (Mr. Osborne) never voted for it ; he voted, and he gave his reasons for doing so at the time, in favour of Mr. Ward's motion, yet he was called • supporter of Maynooth, while the sold* lord, who voted for tut permanent endowment, was bald up as the protestant champion. (Cheers.) But this was all of a piece with the conduct of his opponents. Why, he actually learnt on the previous lay, in conversation with a friend, that that day which ought to have been de voted to rest, was employed by them in posting bills against himself ; and that was the party which was so pecu liarly concerned a b out the interests of religion. (" Hear, hear, ' and cheers.) As regarded the papal question, he believed that more popish priests had been educated at Ox ford than at Maynooth. (Hear, hear.) If they really wanted to resist papal aggression, let them not look to Rome or to Maynooth, but to their own institutions at Omord. If they wished to raise an outwork against the papacy, let them inquire into the university system, where they would aad real Jesuits in the shape of M.A.'s and D.D.'s, who, Oil, essaiving the public money, were trying to under mine use church, and acting in opposition to those great lwahmlnit_ v primeeples in which all parties profaned to be united.

Mr. B. 08BORNEsaid he thought he had already denied that he had any eennstion with the matter, in ayug that he did not know any of the Roman catholic electors. Mr. KU saki the ant resulution purporting to ins. from Wine-office-court had been contradicted by the very parties from whom it purported to emanate. It first appeared in an advertisement in the Times. It was afterwards contra dicted ; and the sdvertisoment was copied in large placards as • quotation from the Mims, in order t s prevent the Übe- ral isiterest from supporting Mr. Osborne. (Hear. hear) Mr. W. WILLUKI, M.P., then moved the following re solution That this meeting having beard with the greatest satisfaction the liberaipolitical, religions, end osonnernal principles expressed by Mr. Bernal Osborne, and confiding in his known advocacy of the extended free dom of Use subject, hereby pledges itself to we its best endeavours to secure his return to parliament." The hon. member said the rejection of Mr. Osborne would be an indelib!e disgrace to the county, and would leave a void in the House of Commons which no other man could fill. The resolution was socandsd by Mr. J. Adams and car ried uaanimously. It was then determined that another meeting should be held in the same platy in the events.; and after several rounds of cheers for Mr. Osborne sad Lord Robert Groove nJr, the proceedings terminated. In the after part of the day, Mr. Osborne proceeded to the Tower Hamlets, and addressed the county electors re siding in that borough. Another party cried out from the crowd that he escandod this, sad the high sheriff acoapted, *mid mewed laughter, the candidature of lie. Rogers, settee Mood upon the husti ThHon. H.

He would oleo give his - hearty support to as eatereran of the suffrage, and to any plan of popular raluestion. (Cheers.) Under the late government there had bees a reduction of taxation to the amount of ' 6,000,0001., and he should be glad to help on farther reduc• tiara. He could not, however bold out any high hope for the tenant-far mer , t h at something wee "looming in the distance"—(laughter) —for such a hope might be dim's pointed ; but he wished to raise the national way less burthensorne to the people. (Cheers, and a voiee, Tote mean it to come from the landlords' rent ?") His opinion on that subject was, that it would be better for rents to be depredated than for the people's bread to be dear. (Loud cheer.) Colonel GILPIN resiowed his parliamentary career dur ing the two sessiora in which he had set, and defended the policy of the Earl of Derby. Mr. Wi11.., Mr. Howe, and Mr. Everitt, manufacturen of Luton, then delivered Teethe§ of a free-trade and cal tendincy, and they defended their principles as noncon formists. They rho guts:lona Mr. Russell and Colonel Gilpin, and received replii s. Mr. 8. Roger., who also had been nominated, made a speech in favour of the policy of protection, but, of course, withdrew from the contest. Colonel Gilpin and Mr. Russell were then declared duly elected. NORTH WARWICKSHIRE. The declaration of the poll took place yesterday at Colethill, in the presence of some 500 of the supporters of Messrs. Newdegate and Spooner. None of the liberal party were present, they having taken no part In the election in any way, since the retirement of Messrs. Craven and Skip with, on Thursday night. The conservatives continued polli g all day on Friday, and by four o'clock bad pretty well polled theinselvea out. A detachment of Dragoons and • strong brigade of the police from Birmingham, were stationed in the town in order to preserve the peace. The numbers as declared by the sheriff were— Newdegate Spooner 2.822 Craven Skipwith The two first were accordingly declared elected. Mr. NEWDEGATE then stepped forward amid the Mews of his friends. He thanked them for having for the time returned him to represent their interests in the of Commons. Eleven years since they had taken him, an untried man, so that hi, political education might be said to have taken place in their service. In 1841, in 1847, and again at this election, they had given a proof that in their opinion he had done nothing to forfeit the confi dence of the constituency. He congratulated the eleeton that they bad maintained the independence of the division against corruption and an attempt to swamp the consti tuency. Mr. Bright bad told him in the House of Com mons that be did not represent • majority in the House of Commons ; but, when premed on the point, he said that he did not represent the majority of the constituency of North Warwiekshire so it should be. That arrogant assertion had been disproved by the result of this election. The hon. gentleman then went on in characteristic style to repeat his well-known opinions on protestantism,Maynooth, theQtseen the crown and constitution. 'With reference to education he avowed himself in favour of it so that it was not of such a character as tended to the subversion of the church and eon stitution and to lead to anarchy. On the subject of free trade (he said) his opinions were unchanged ; but Mr. Cobden's advice had been taken as to the isaue to be tried in this election. It was simply protection or free trade, though there were many other questions of equal importance. And although himself as much • protectionist as ever, it Lord Derby saw that it was useless to attempt it In its old form, he, for one, was not again going to be the man to attempt to break up the conservative party. lie had aided in doing that once, and was not willing to renew the experiment. The question was between Lord Derby, on the one hand, and Lord John Russell, Graham, and Cobden on the other. From the former the farmer had something to expect in the way of relief; the latterly sternly resisted every thing, whilst Lord Derby was prepared to alter our financial system to make it accord with our altered circumstances under free trade. The hon. gentleman next referred to the papal aggression, which, of course, he condemned, so well as Lord John Rinsch, for his week measure respecting it. He declared himself determined to oppose the introduction of the Romanist Cason law into this country, although • warm friend to civil and religious liberty. He repeated his well-known opinions reliance to the adm ission of the Jews to parliament, and from this point lapsing into a pious vein, he expressed an opinion that to do so would be to offend God, for in his opinion God dealt with the temporal con cerns of nations according to the measure of their allegiance to Him, and inasmuch as He had scattered the Jews over the face of the globe without the power to legislate for ihttestlves, he (Mr. Newdegate) held it to be unfit that dry should have the power to lirislate for England. The MN, gendsenan, in conclusion, again thanked his friends, ami essened them of his determination to do his duty. Mr. SPOONER, in returning thanks, went over the same ground as his colleague. Ile denounced free trade as clap trap, and Maynooth and catholicism.. Mined too had to be talked about. lie took 0•11811111 S. ism it mmegratu hie his auditory on the fact, that the, had on Imager a pro Mete and extravagant sovereign on the three, for if there were (tie said) he shed& waddle Me the safety of the nation.

After Lord John Scott and Sir George Chetwynd had addressed the electors, the new " knights " were girt with swords, and the election proceedings terminated. With reference to this election our correspondent says : A very large section of the Überals are greatly and Justly indignant at the conduct of their Weft, for having in so cowardly a fashion withdrawn from tin contest on Thurs day night, after the first day's poU.

They had sent him to parttemest • perfectly independent man, and so he had t octet He had supported Lord John Russell's adinini• titration geneselly, but he had voted against him twenty or thirty tames— so that .he wee not that thick and this supporter of his lordship he wee charged with being. He had not given a vote without having well con sidered whether it wee for the interest of the eountr and whether it would meet with their approval. He hiW 'voted against the continuance of the window tax, which the tones supported on the third reading of the bill for its continuance. He had *govern free trade, and was ready to support chencery and law reform. He was a friend of the ballot, which Col. Harcourt repudiated, but which he knew very well was practised is all the clubs. With him (Mr. Dawes) the ballot was • necessity of life, for with out it they could not put down the cruelties that were in flicted upon the de;:endent voter. (Cries of " Never," and cheers from the crowd.) With respect to education, he desired to have it universal, but it must be accompanied, by the Wile. (Cheers.) He was for obtaining church re form, and reducing the salaries of the bishops. He wu for the abolition of the ecclesiastical courts, and having eccle siastical business conducted before the judges of the land. He was for the abolition of the malt tax, as in dispensable to the farmer suffering from free trade. If returned to parliament there should not be found a greater friend to the farmers than himself. (Laughter.) Among other reforms he shou'd advocate was the abolition of rotten boroughs. The hoe. gentleman proceeded to attack Col. Harcourt as an aristocrat, at which great uproar ensued, and several interpositions of the sheriffs to get him a hearing. He concluded with expressing his confidence of success. Col. VERNON HARCOURT came forward amidst cheering, and uproar and hissing. He claimed to be heard on the score of the farmers, but he was also determined to be patient, sad would remain till they listened to him. (Cheers.) He came forward on the principles of conservatism to preserve the Queen upon the throne, the church, the Houses of Lords and Com mons, and the noble institutions under which this country had risen to be the greatest country in the world. He was totally opposed to the indiction of a corn duty, and would oppose it, but he knew that Lord Derby would not propose it. He himself, if seat to parliament, would go nnpledged —for, though he was an admirer of Lord Derby's prise'. pies, no member ought to go to parliament the mere ser vant of any minister. He could not pledge himself to insist upon the repeal of the malt tax, until he ascertained that the revenue of the country could bear it. lie would not propose the repeal of the Maynooth grant, because a grant was guaranteed at the union. A number of questions were put to the candidates, and having been answered, a show of hands was taken, which was greatly in favour of Mr. Dawes, when a poll was de manded, to take place on Thursday and Friday. NORTH NORTHUMBERLAND. Yesterday the nomination for thin division of the ' county of Northumberland took place in the Market-place, Alnwick, in the presence of an immense concourse of people, drawn together from rarious parts of the extensive district by special trains. The High Sheriff, Mr. T. W. Croster, of Croster-tower, presided; and after the preliminaries were gone through, Mr. Ord, of Nunnykirk, rose for the purpose of nominating Lord Ossulston, but from the in cement hooting that was kept up by the crowd, not a word could be heard from the hon. gentleman. Mr. B. Burrell, of Brown-park, met with a similar reception. Sir Walter Trevelyan nominated Sir George Grey amid loud cheers. Mr. P. H. Selby seconded the nomination. Mr. 0. Creswell nominated Lord Lovaine ; Mr. John Cook son seconded tke nomination. They also spoke in dumb show. Lora Ossolston was also hooted. Sir G. Grey was received with loud cheers, and delivered a telling speech. Lord Lovaine met a similar reception to Lord Oseulston. When our despatch left the show of hands was not taken, but there was no doter: it would be largely in favour of Sir G. Grey. FLLNTSHIRE. The nomination of candidates for the county of Flint took place yesterday. The recent member for the county (the Hon. E. M. L. Mostyn) was opposed by Mr. Edmund, Peel of Bryn y Pys, on the tory interest, both parties having, by themselves and friends, thoroughly can vassed the county. The nomination took place at 10 o'clock, when each candidate was attended to the hustings by a large array of supporters. The High Sheriff having read the writ, Ike., Sir Jona HANIIIIL, the recently elected M.P. for the Flintehire bosoughs, proposed the Hon. E. M. L Moetyn as • fit and proper person to represent the county. The hon. member dilated at length on the advantages of the liberal policy, and the unvarying support which Mr. Moetyn had always given to that policy; and contended that the real question to be decided was, whether the country was pre pared to return to protection under Lord Derby or not. Sir 0. W seconded the nomination. Mr. Jona Weaxe Errow nominated Edmund Peel, Esq., of Bryn y Pr, who, though not prepared to vote for a repeal of the corn laws, would support Lord Derby's ati• nistry generally. He was anxious, by • fair and just revi sion of taxation, to equalise the burdens now pressing par ticularly on the agricultural interest. Mr. P. D. Cootie seconded the nomination. Mr. Peel came forward for the relief of the agricultural interest, and, in- deed, should he be returned, as he confidently anticipated, he would devote his whole time and attention to the promo. tion of the welfare of all classes of the people. Mr. E. PEEL, in addressing the electors, claimed their suffrages as being a supporter of Lord Derby's adosioistra tion. Ho was a protectionist in conviction, and though he saw the impossibility of a return to a duty on eons, should do all he could in forwarding every measure for the relief of the depressed agriculturist. The Hon. E. MOSTYN was received with loud cheers. He said that ever since he had been a member of parliament he had been a reformer, and during the 21 years in which he had been their representative had given his vote and in fluence to even. wholesome measure of reform which had been introduced. He expatiated upon the present prosper out state of :be country at large, illustrated it from official and statistical returns, and declared his full determination to support the policy by which that prosperity hid been caused. At the same time, he was prepared to give his most serious attention to every beneficial measure which might be brought forward, predicting that Lord Derby would have a flourishing majonty in the new parliament. The show of hands was declared to be in favour of Mr. Mostyn, and the polling was fixed for Thursday and Friday. NORTH ESSEX. -•- - --- The result of tlto poll was officially declared from the busting, Braintree yesterday afternoon by Sir C. C. Smith, big "sheriff, as follows: Tyrel Beresford Leonard Mr. Hardeastle [The announcement of the numbers was received with cries of " shame," and bribery has done it.") The thou Snakier then proclaimed that Sir John Tye vin Tyrell end the Right Hon. William Bereeford had bees duly elected knights to serve fur the northern division of the county of Essex in her Majesty's parliament, to be holden in the city of Westminster, on the 20th day of August neat. The tlisuita-Satittrr said that the High Sheriff would now offer the poll books to the respective candidates, to giva them an opportunity of sealing them, according to the act of the 6th Nut., c. 18, s. 93. He now, therefore, asked whether Sir J. Tyrell was prepared to seal the poll books ? (No response being offered to this summons, loud cries were raised of He's afraid to cook; his donkey is here, that will do as well," and laughter.) The URIC formality was gone through with the name of Mr. Bere,ford, who was also absent. Mr. Leonard, the only candidate present, declined to avail himself of the opportunity. 1 hree groans having been given for Mr. Beresford, and ditto for " the lawyers," Mr. LENNAIID then presented himself, and was loudly cheered. He said the assemblage might, perhaps', be as mush surprised as himself to find that he, who was the third candidate proposed, and the lowest upon the poll, should be the only one to appear before them on that occasion to re turn thanks. (Cheers, and cries of "They are ashamed of themselves.") He should have at least expected that if his opponents had not been present in person, they would have been represented by some of their friends—(hear)—but it seemed that those blue cocks were crowing at the top of their voices at Chelmsford at that moment. (Laughter.) He thought it looked rather as if they were craven and dunghill, that they did not come there to crow in the face of their oppocents. (Cheers.) It was very well to get oa the top of a gate and crow when there was nobody to contest the battle ; and that 'he understood they were doing now at Chelmsford. Although be had been defeated he yet looked back with exceeding pleasure on the struggle in which they had been engaged, not only on account of the zeal that had been die played in the cause to which he was attached, but on ac count also of the personal kindness and hearty welcome he had received from all in that neighbourhood. (Hear, hear.) When Sir J. Tyrell and Major Elmsford stood up in the Howe of Commons to support the mockery of reform which Lord Derby was likely to propose, and to oppose the more real measure that Lord John Rumen was likely to introduce, it would be recollected that at least a large portion of the county had opposed the return of those members to parliament, and consequently were adverse to the measures which they advocated. And when Major Deresford attempted to tread down the rights of conscience, it would be remembered that there were a considerable num bee of persons who messed aga inst his return. He (Mr. Leonard) was told that Lord wee seeking support from the Paseyite party in this country i and, therefore, when Kr. Bercaford got up and made his invective, against popery, he should like to know why it was that the gee vernment to which he was attached was seeking support from semi-popery, from that which was worse than pope 7 in the country, be it WU popery in disguise, insist'. misty endeavouring to introduce the doctrines and cereoso 'Dies of the papacy tato the reformed church of the Pro testant community. He believed that this would be the reckon which Lord Derby's goverment would be wrecked. The hoe. gentleman concluded by thanking them for the kind reception they had given him. Mr. COATILVLD wished to lay before the meeting a supplemental declaration of the poll. It was necessary to dissect and look at the poll a little before they could know what is really imported. It was a most erroneous notion to suppose that the contest had scything like extended to the whole of the northern division of the county. Never, since the Reform Bill, had the liberals obtained so great a ma jority in the North Hinekford Hundred, as they had dose on the present oecesion. Hitherto they had been s tr onger in the Walden distils* than any where . else ; they had been stronger in the Witham Sias m the Braintree district; but now in Brouster, ailed upon so suddenly, as they had been, and without any organisation to oppose to the perfect organisation a their advenarisa, they had yet polled, for Mr. Leonard Sir J.

( A vote of thanks to the High Sheriff was then tarried by acclamation.

Yesterday morning three young men were brought before the Manchester magistrates, charged with causing the death of Mr. Benjamin Holden Saxon, grocer and provision dealer, Chester-road, Hulme. The names of the prisoners are James Weldon, Wm. Pratt, and James I Drummond. Shortly before eight o'clock on Saturday night the prisoners were in Chester-road, and annoyed and struck a young man, named Edward Welch . Welch is • hard-working labou rer,i of singular habits, and not being very sharp-witted, is akn twed by children, but Mr. Saxon, who was standing at his door, was indi gnant at seeing three men abase him, and called them by some insulting name. The three at once rushed upon him (Saxon) and knocked him down in the road. He rose of his own accord, but appeared • pod deal stunned, and stag gered rather in his walk as he attempted to regain his own door. At this moment the prisoner Weldon again strict I him on one side his head, and knocked him down again. The unfortunste man fell with his head heavily upon the stone flags of the pavement. He was taken up in a state of insensibility, and died within ten minutes of the first attack upon him. The three prisoners made their escape at the time, but were subsequently apprehended by the police. The magistrates, after a brief examination of the witnesses preserd, remanded the prisoners until • post motion examination of the body could be made. I MINISTERS AND THEIR PROSPECTS. (Ims the Ds* Nom) A Cabinet Council la to be held this day. The customs ry retailer of government office gossip states that the Psalm?. will on this occasion submit to his colleagues an outline of the measures that are to be presented to the new Parliament. If this statement is correct, Lord DERBY has hitherto kept his cabinet as much in the dark as he has the country at large, as to the policy he contemplates. There may have been prudence in this; it must have enabled such of his friends., had to bear the brunt of an election to shape their stories to their consti tuents after the fashion most likely to give satis faction, without the awkward consciousness that they were telling what they knew with certainty was untrue. But there is good reason to doubt that the intelli gence is premature. Lord DEBBY and his col leagues are not yet in a conditihn to decide upon the policy they are to pursue in the new Parliament. It is clear that they have held themselves open to adopt any policy that has a chance of meeting with support from a majority of that Parliament. They will wait and reconnoitre and feel their way in order to ascertain what is likely to please the majority of the new House of Commons, in order that they may shape their course accord ingly. Their political morale—like the social morals of the Italian poet—are summed up in the maxim, " eke piece sei lici , e." But in order to know what will please the House of Commons they must first as certain what it is made of. This they have nut yet had time to do. Lord DERBY has not yet got his programme of the business of next session ready. Nor will it soon be got ready ; for the parliamentary returns, as far as they go, are of a nature not on 4 to annoy but to perplezhim. An estimate formed of the changes effected by the elections in the rrsonnel of the House of Commons, up to the end of last week, did not exceed eighty in all. Leaving out of view a few nondescripts, it would appear the Derbyites had gained forty-two seats from the liberals, and the Liberals thirty-five seats from the Derbyites. Cp to that time, the whole gain that accrued to Lord DERBY from the toil and turmoil of the elections was a total of seven votes. This is all he has been able to do, though he has had the weight of office on his side, and has been most unscrupulous in bringing the " Government influence" to bear on every assail able constituency; and although the Carlton made a heavy subscription. The positive results of the elections, as far as they can be made out, were, up to the same time, 237 Derbyites returned, and 307:anti-Nlinisterialists. Lord DERBY'S hard won seven votes still left him in a minority of thirty, with only one hundred and twenty members remaining to be elected. The greater number of these non-elect are Irish members, and it is not in Ireland that Lord DERBY can count upon adding to his numbers. 'The probability is, that ministers will find them selves in a minority of about forty in the new Parlia ment. It is impossible to speak with certainty. for among the non-Ministerialists, it must be admitted that there are some whom it would be folly for the Liberals to count upon if there appeared any chance of Lord DERBY'S remaining in office. On the other hand, not a few members are set down as supporters of Lord DERBY, who have been particularly careful to pledge themselves to nothing more than giving him a fair trial; and these, and even some who have more frankly proclaimed themselves his partisans, have secured their elections by promises to their constituents which it will not be easy for Lord DERBY to allow them to keep, unless he is to steer a course that can scarcely fail to give umbrage to the bulk of his party. The truth is that the floating balance of " loose fish" or " waiters upon provi dence" in the new Parliament will be unwontedly large. Some time may possibly elapse after it meets before the actual strength of parties is positively shown. But of this Lord DERBY may be certain, that he will be in a minority, and that the unaccountable characters of not a i 'ew of his own supporters, and of all whom he has any chance of winning, will make it a puzzling problem for him to shape a course that will enable him to keep them together. This, however, it is now obvious, will be the sole study of ministers till Parliament meets They have done their worst at the elections. They have put on the screw in every constituency where official influence could avail anything. they have tried to obstruct the voting of Liberals—as in Here fordshire ; they have tried other means—as at Derby; they have assumed, like chameleons, any character or colour that promised to ingratiate them with the constituency immediately addressed. But in so far as the electors are concerned, all these un scrupulous practices have failed to give them a ma jority. Failing the elections they will now address themselves to tamper with the representatives. The constituencies will, therefore, find it necessary to keep • sharp look out on the men of their choice for the next few months, that is, till one or two testing divisions have committed them one way or another. What tack Lord DERBY and Mr. DisitAzzr may try to sail upon defies conjecture. Two gentlemen less burdened by principles or convictions—more free to follow any course that promises to be advantageous to themselves, have rarely presented themselves as candidates for public favour. But as yet they have dealt almost exclusively in negatives. Lord DERBY'S son declares that his father will not attempt to resuscitate protection; and Lord DEBBY'S CIIAN CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER goes farther, and with a beautiful shortness of memory (rather convenient for men of his stamp), protests that neither Lord DERBY nor he had ever promised to restore pro tection. "No one supposes,' Mr. DISRAELI said in the County Hall, at the nomination for Bucks, " that tho present administration have any intention, or ever had any intention, to bring back the laws that were iepealed in 1816." But Mr. DISRAELI was not contented with disclaiming protection; he took the first step towards disclaiming his own great panacea, revision of taxation. " But, gentlemen,' he said, 6 , I don't pretend to think that any adjustment of taxa tion would give the redress that is necessary to the cultivators of the soil; nor do I think that, in enter ing upon the question of a revision of taxation, we are to consider the interests of any class alone, how ever respectable." Mr. DISRAELI having prevailed upon his bucolical supporters to desist from their attempts to grasp protection, in order to lay hold upon revision of taxation, which he offered them in stead, now coolly tells them that as the substitute is not worthy of their acceptance, he will not give them that either. Nor do the negative professions of the Derbyites stop hoe. They call upon the electors to support them because they will not submit to democracy. What this democracy is which they promise not to obtrude upon the nation does not clearly appear. It is something, they say, that the Liberals clamour for, and that Lord Jowl RUSSELL is ready to grant. Now there never was a time at which ultra-democratic in- novat ions were less called for by any section of the pub lic, or were less in favour than at present; and scarcely any statesman can be named less likely to abet them at any time than Lord Jou Russet'. The demo cratic innovations which Lord DERBT is to resist are mere shadows, conjured up to fright the timid. Lord DERBY and his colleagues say to the public— " There is the demon Democracy—come here to us, and we will not let him touch you." Something more substantive than this will be needed to win for the DERBY ministry the support of a majority of the House of Commons ; or to afford the " loose fish" returned to that house a plau sible pretext to excuse to their constituents any desertion of their colours. Nor will Ministers have a budget or measures of reform ready made to their hands next session. They will have to manufacture their own; and for the support of thes6 their own measures they will have to rely upon their own followers, as no section of the Opposition will have any parental tendre for them. It is no light task that now lies before Ministers, to mould the new and unformed House of Commons to suit their pur- Noe. But that is the business they have now in hand, and, therefore, let the Liberal electors watch narrowly both Ministers and their own representa tives—the gay seducers, and those on whom the seductive arts of office are to be tried. AN UNWELCOME Mfr.—During the thunder storm in the south of England, on Friday last the lightning entered the Electric Telegraph office at Southampton on the wires, and played round the instruments in such an alarming manner that the telegraph clerks rushed from the office in a fright. The local journals could receive no tele ' graphic intelligence that night previous to their publication on the following morning, In consequence of the thunder storm
