IrIiDNISDAY. MAY 11. Int West Riding has given its smug is haw of Progress and against Cesserratim. By a ma jority of 1,242, the greatest of English mastitasa- cies has preferred a manufacturer of radical pria cilges, to an ez•o9'icial of Tory opinions and misto crate family. At the general election of 1811, Lords MOIII'ETH and MILTON were unable to maintaia their ground u hberal candidates against th. rising tide of PLELITS reaction, and two Conservativea held the seats wall after the repeal of the Cara Laws. Is the •thaeiasm kindled by that event, Mr. COBDEN wee returned ; but from 14 to the present tine the representation has been divided, Mr. Baciarr Damao"' baring in that year defeated Sir Cr'.Lilco rAILDLET by •majoriti of nearly 9,000, and DO Liberal sine then having ventured to emstest the seat. It was not surprising, therefore, that apes his retirement the great families so long potential in the county should seek again to assert their right to nominate one at least of its representatives. After due deliberation, it was resolved by the HARE WOOD4 and HCITVORDA, CARDIGANS, WILTON!, and WHARNCIAFFES that Mr. JAMES 871." ART WORTLEY should be their candidate, and that he should be requested to relinquish his uncontested seat for Bute, in order to become their standard-bearer in resistance to Reform in the West Riding. Of the triumph that awaited him there could he, it was said, no questioa. Territorial influence had returned hia brother eighteen years ago, and had returned his amiable sod ac;oisiplii - hed friend the Chair. men of the Great iiorthern Railway (with the exception of one brief interval) ever since. And now that the pretensions of WitaTIST and DEN !sow were concentrated in the person of tbs EX-SOLICITOR-GENBRAL, who could entertain • doubt of hie success Did he not beer upon him the stamp of Sir !tonna inepritneur; end had he not likewise been sought out for promotion by Lord PALMERSTON ?

Mr. CROIRLET is a merchant of high character, popular u an employer, and re spected by all who know him as a sa ; but he passion none of the qualities whisk created for Hvear BKOUGRAM or for RICKARD s a wave of popular feeling whisk madam could mist. To the bulk of the 33,000 duties whom he addressed as a candidate he win unknows, sore as outs who for seven yeses had voted steadily and consistently is the House of Commons for that which they felt to be right. As • Batloiter, and an advocate of a widely extended franchise, he could sot count sanguinely spots much assistance from the timid and warmest claws, so envoy of whom is South Lereashire last weak stood aloof or gave Usk °tee to the Corervatives. Rut befog a tarot sere sad pluck, ►aving the instinct of discerning the signs of the tires*, and knowing what the people around ►im were made of, Mr. CROSSLEY determined to give up his wean seat for Ilalifax, sad to offer ►imself so a candidate for the county. He believed that matwitleruddeng all the sinister sad elaeiah talk about the country being indifferent to Reform, a gnat and deep-seated feeling pervaded the commaaity, and that if fairly appealed to it would alio itself beard.

This is a great fact, draining to be thoroughly eadoestood, and practically bathe is re isembreace. It cannot be pretended that the remarkable con test which has thus terminated 60 ealisfactorily to the friends of Progress, wee one of a mere party kind. Mr. Utio...t.re is certainly sot • Woig; and OHM of his friends have bad their misgivings whether Nlr. WORTL LT were after elle genuine Tory. Like the Woman of Samaria he bait had many par. ties, and he is not quite sure whether that which he now has is may his party. By hie own account he joined Lord Pm-seams in 1836 upon an assorance nearly identical with that which 81r W.

Bat the grave significance of yesterday's decision will be beat appreciated when the merely personal ineideuts of the oonfitet fade, as they soon will do, into forgetfulness. The West Riding 13as been carried by and for the popular di mend for a large and com prehensive measure of Reform. The closing scene of the electoral drama is calzulated to make an im pression of the deepest sort upon the minds of men. Lard DIEM used to go about lest autumn declaring that he could find nobody who really wanted reform. There is an end to hie badinage now. If while there is time he cannot muster resolution frankly and fear- lessly to set himself right with the country on this point, by the time the new Parlisment meets the three hundred and ten votes which his whippers-in count upon will not avail to save him from adminis trative extinction. qui de Lajathro, ea a minima extraordinary to the , Emperor of the French and the King of Sardinia at the head-quarters of the Pranoo-Sardinian army.

The enemy have evacuated Livorno, Tronzano, Santhis, Cavaglia, Ulu:01a, and Vercelli, and have recrossed the Seel& in great hute, leaving part of the levies of forage, &c., which they had demanded, behind them.

The Nord says that orders have been given at Marseilles for the ambulation of his Majesty and Prints Napoleon at noon to-day (Wednesday). The Emperor will arrive at Genoa to-morrow, and will proceed at once, it is thought, to headquarters at Alassandria. " The accounts," says the Nord, "from the seat of war, report a of of u quo of whisk the principal frame is the bad state of the ground, owing to the rains and floods. In all probability the Emperor of Austria will take the command of his army at the same time that the Emperor of the French will put himself at the head of his regi ments." The Duke de Levis has sddreased a letter to the Paris journals stating that the motive of the Count de Chamb3rd's lots andknce of the Emperor of Aus tria was merely to thank his Majesty for the asylum afforded him far so many years on the Austrian ter ritory. . _ . - - . A small moveable printing-office is, by order of the Emperor Napoleon, to be placed at the disposal of the Marshal Major-General of the army of Italy, That which was used in the Crimean war is now being re-organised for that purpose.

The nobility of Austrian Silesia bays just sent a deputation, headed by Mgr. Foerster, prince bishop of Breslau, to present an address expressing loyalty ' and devotedness to the Emperor Francis Joseph. Austriss Silesia is included in the diocese of Breslau, but still the bishop belongs to the Prussian church The Piassoidat Gazette of the Bth contains several decrees issued by Priam Eugene of Savoy, lieutenant of the kingdom. By the first, no prescrip tion of time, however stipulated, shall have the effect, during the war, of depriving any person con nected with the array easy right he might possess nevertheless, appeals and other mitten of legal pro cedure are to continue to be effected as usual. After the termination or the war, the periods agreed upon shall return into force, but no period can be shorter than two month,. By another decree the copper money of France may be received in Pied snout during the war, and is to be considered a legal tender to an amount not exceeding one franc. A third decree authorises students to continue their studies privately during the suspension of university lecture*, so as to present themselves for degrees as if they had followed the regular course.

" Anoona has been declared in a state of siege. The light in the lighthouse at the entrant* of the harbour has been extinguished. The Pope has pro tested. Count Buol will have an interview with the Emperor, and will send an answer to-morrow. France considers the state of things at Anton' as a violation of neutrality, and awaits the reply. The French regiments at Rome are to be placed on a fall war footing. They will be increased by 3,000 men. Rome is tranquil." . A telegram a day later says :—" The state of siege at Ancona has been suspended, and the light house is again lit, in consequence of the energetic _ _ . . remonstrances of the French ambassador against a violation of neutrality. Austria has promised not to enter Tuscany through the Pontifical States." The Indepextionee states that the agit►tion in the Romagna is incresaing. The native troops, and even the Pontifical gendarmery and the Swiss, are disposed, it is said, to take part in the movement, as soon as the signal shall be given. At Rome one would certainly have broken out before this, if General de Ooyon had not opposed any movement. The Austrians not only occupy Bologna and Anoons, but Forli, Ravenna, and Rimini, and have just sent reinforcements to these places. RISDIO IN LOMBARDY. BERNE, I oasuAr. According to advice. from the frontiers of Lom bardy, the inhabitants of the Valtelins are making Feat purchases of arms and ammunition. A revo lution appears imminent.

The solemn funeral procession of Alexander Von Humboldt is now on its way to the cathedral. All the representatives of science, art, and intelligence in Berlin join in the proctesion. Three chamber lains in gold costume, bearing the orders of the illustrious deceased, precede the funeral car, which is drawn by six hones from the royal stable. Upon the car is a simple uncovered coffin of oak adorned with flowers and laurel. On either aide of the oar are the students bearing green palm branches. A line of carriages of immense length closes the profession. The Prince Regent, together with all the Princes and Princesses, are assembled in the cathedral, awaiting the arrival of the great philoso pher's mortal remains. A mournful aspect over spreads the whole town. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. THE EMPEROR'S DEPARTURE. (110* 0171 OWI 0011111,011112.) PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING. The Emperor left the Tuileries at half-past five I this afternoon. His Majesty, who was dressed in a general's uniform, with a kepi on his head, appeared in a carriage with the Empress by his side. Her Majesty acoompanies ;the Emperor as far as Monte rein, where the imperial train will stop for dinner. She will return to Paris by a special train at half past eight this evening. The Prince Napoleon goes on to Italy with the Emperor. The Rue de Rivoli, along which the Emperor went to the Lyons Rail way, was crowded in every put, and there was a good deal of cheering. The Cent Gerdes do not leave till Thursday. Chevet left Paris at eight this morning for Mon tercels, in order to prepare the imperial banquet, which is ordered by half-put seven. The farewell mass was celebrated, as announoed, in the chapel at the Tuileries, at noon to-lay. The public were not admitted ; in fact, the chapel is barely large enough to contain all the official per sonages who were present. It is stated that the Archbishop of Paris is pre paring an answer to the war manifesto of the Arch bishop of Vienna. . . . . Tit; Bourse Irma again very weak, with little busi ness doing.

It is given out that the subscription to the loan already amounts to 1,100 millions—more than double the sum required. There must bs some news in London which it is wished to conceal from the French public ; all the seeping papers were seized to-day. I have not heard the reason. The " Question Romaine" of Edmoat About (from the translation of which you gave some ex tracts in a recent number) hu had the narrowest possible escape of being strangled in its birth as far as regards this country. For many days the ques tion of its admission has been under discussion by the authorities , , the heavy artillery of the clergy and the small arms of a section of the council being directed against it with terrific and almost over whelming force. The key note of the opposition party was that the perpetuation of the temporal power of the Pope is essential to the existence of Francs. It was not till yesterday that the council decided in favour of the appearance of the beak, and this result was only brought about by the personal intervention of the Emperor. The Praise says in its weekly commercial review : The &thistles of war, while at Meek ;crowing the an certainty which for the left four maths has ozonised a de prima°, influence ups trade, has not peoducel any percep tible change.

A letter from Genoa, of the 6th, in the Sleek says : The pest movement of troop• between Toulon and Genoa has ceased during the last two days; 65,000 French have disembarked at Genoa, and the sambas who have arrived in Piedmont by 151314 is estimated at 86,000. We ere exposing every moment 4,000 or 6,000 cavalry from France, so that the French will have • good affeo tire force to put in Use against the Austrians. It must not be forgotten that, without coanti•g the Italia& 'oh:items of all countries, there are 80,000 Piedmentess, perfectly disciplined, and desirous to combat by the side of our soldiers, and that of those 80,000 ors-half at bat Moe been under Are.

SARDINIA. 71011 ova owe COWllirow...--, TURIN, MAT 6. A great battle appears to be imminent in the neighbourhood of Aleseandria, and the probability is that this letter of mine will reach you after the event. But, in order to follow up the thread of my narrative, I shall continue to mention such details of importance as may possibly fail to appear in the bulletins or to reach you through the telegraph. The Austrian army at this moment amounts to one hundred and forty thousand men, and is spreading out at its two wings—that is to say, towards the south-west over the parts about Vercelli and Biella, and to the noeth-east about Tortona. They are con structing some fortifications at Vercelli, and have pushed their vanguard as fur as Slot* on the road to Turin. We do not understand what they are aiming at by their occupation of those plains, for, although General Cialdini's division has ab andoned the fortifications of the Dora and fallen back upon Casale, y et the French, who are arriving every day at Tann, , may at soy moment occupy and defend them by taking the rail from Turin to Chinas°, where they would be at a very short distance from them. Nor as we make out what the drift of the Austrians is in taking Tortona and Voithers, which are not strongholds, and from which they may be dislodged with heavy loss by the Sardinian or French troops stationed= the nearest Apennine. In the mean time, wherever the Austrians make their appearance, they ravage everything, wry off hostage*, impose oentributions, sad, in short, behave in such • way that Marshal Canrobert, it is said, has written to Gyulai, and asked him whether he means to carry on the war like a barbarian, or in accordance with the principles of modern civilisation. For the rest, the Austrians appear to have their thoughts directed far more to an assault than to a retreat with its attendant losses, against which they are making no provision. For, with the exception of Piacenza and Pavia, no other point strong by nature or by art can lend them strength in the hour of need and give them breathing time, along the whole line of the Ticino, should they have to retreat in the face of a victorious army. Timid people are of course, everywhere, and we therefore have and; here, who are lamenting because they hear that • body of Austrians, 16,000 strong, with 20 pieces of artillery, are on the road to the capital. But they forget in their wild alarm that entrenchments have been thrown up along the Dora for a space of seven miles with extreme skill, behind which a few thousand soldiers can keep a whole army in check fur several days. I have this minute opened &letter front Rome, and my correspondent tells me that the Pops has sent all the political prisoners to Ancona. His Holiness is both grieved and irritated at all that is going on in Italy, nor can he be calmed by all the asiuranoes that the Emperor of the French gives him. The Duke of Grammont ha*, however, obtained from his Holiness his word of honour that he will not attempt to escape from Rome, and in return the French government has guaranteed tranquillity and order in the Eternal City. In the provinces the case is differ ent, and the people may be said to be pretty much their own muters ; as fur the native troops, they are breaking up by desertion, amid many leave to take service under the Piedmouteae colour. The Pope asked Spain not long ago to send troops to the Ro raima to replace the Germans and French. But the government of Madrid requested to be excused, and disapproved the project. It was on this subject that Count Cavort. addressed a note to the Spanish minister residing here. A. THE ADRIATIC.

The garrison of 2,600 men, and now of 7,000 men, Is preparing quarters for ad ditional and imminent reinforcements.

The requisitions of the military commandant are terrible, and extend to all the neighbouring towns. Our authorities have ceased to occupy themselves with the interests of the place, and the communes are ignored.
