The triumph of the ::.t be worth anything at all derived its whole -.•.4 .ignificance from its being the road to the tri , .cd principles of the party, and upon the capacity V . ministry to embody those principles in practical - ..- _its. and in the conduct of the administration, would : ..i.. the ultimate verdict which the electors would pees :..1r conduct. And for hie part he hoped that when, an•aher election came, the present ministry were : .to Lace been unfaithful to their trust, the electors • .. : dismiss them as summarily front the public service .y bud lately done somebody else. (Laughter and 1,.; With respect to pa diamentary reform, he ' we Lad attained to a state of advancement -dil to I•optilar suffrage that formed an epoch in the r , i the country. It would be premature on his I% the situation which he held, were he to attempt ib , measures which might be necessary to give full •: . that reform. He had no doubt that after a short 4 many points, many imperfections and anomalies Ls.• t, the recent bill would require a careful review. . • : • name time that review was not the liminess of the • 1-.. caulk every sensible and every practical man • .trive to address himself to subjects of public in i. the order which their importance—and even their .•ai (.1: for the time—might prescribe. There however, two subjects that could not , srlocked in connection with the represen is of the people, one of which was the ...ty offered by the present system for perfect •I• in in the giving of the vote—(loud cheers)—which ' ' had not been conferred as a favour, but imp:eel ' duty by the legislature upon the members community. Upon this point he would say that in his opinion the occurrences which • marked the recent election, especially in e parts of the country, but most of all perhaps in one .e borough—the borough of Blackburn, with which his the honour to have some connection—theme occur ,, ought to form, in the hands probably of indepen • members rather than a government representing a the subject of searching and impartial in (Cheers.) He had at all times given his • •. in favour of the method of open voting, and • .i do io now, but with this important reservation, • -.- whether by open voting, or by whatsoever means, 'V. 5r. ,, .t.g must be assured. (Renewed cheers.) Another • '-'4 , of the utmost urgency belonged to the category • " .isti.entary reform—be meant the position of actual :414. and suffering, in which a large body of persons ••T ily known as compound householders were placed : • ' -1-:. , , ompelled practically to alter the tenure on which • Y 1 .'.1 , 1 their dwellings as a condition of their exercising •••••• which he must again observe had not been given ' .:•'". as a personal favour, but as a public trust and :.lad if the vote was so to be conferred, he held • it Ought to be conferred in a way that Lot entail suffering or grievance.

(Hear, hear.) Beikarries to the question bear *, upon the relations between capital sad labour, be ex pressed his conviction that they were porfootly capable of friendly and satisfactory solution. He believed that the difliccdties which had arisen bad simply been the incidents asossiarily attacking to a period of Dandling and • period of advancement which involved great changes in the relation of capital and labour, and that all these difficulties would be solved, and solved not so much by the compulsory action of parliament as by the good sense of both the claws principally con cerned and with the general satisfaction and concurrence. (Applause.) Touching the subject of the national ex penditure, the right hon. gentleman deeply regretted that in the two years and a half that had elapsed since the government that had been that of Lord Pal merston and subsequently of Earl Russell lift office, a large, and in his opinion, an unnecessary addition had been made to the public charges. He did not mean the addition that referred to the casualty of the Abyssinian war—he meant the addition that had been made to the standing charges of the country, and constantly roaming in the ultimata that ware submitted to parliament. He know of no reason why 3,000,0001. should have been added, in the period with which he was dealing, to the expanses of our establishments. (Cheers.) It was ogee thing, he was very wall aware, to put on 3,000,0001., it was another thing to take it off. (Laughter.) When they put 3,000,0001. on to the expenditure they created a number of new reiationo—Oaughber)— • number of new otiose--a =adieu; of new ' claims, and a number of new expectations. (Renewed laughter.) But they could not, sad what is more, they ought not to destroy all this in • mouent. The work of retrenchment mast be a well ooneidered and a careful work. Referring to the eosapositice of the cabinet, be observed that the idea that had governed the hematite of the prated administration had been to pleas able and tried men in sharp of the public puss —ma of administrative experience and proved ability ; and lastly, men holding their places in the Hoes, of (bosons, and therefore immediately responelige to the re premitatives of the people. Dealing at length with the Irish question, he remand that his policy bad been met by, he would not my a pharisaical, but at any rate a womanish lamentation on the part of their oppo nenb. He scouted the notion that there was any analogy between the established church and the Irish church, and with regard to the allegation that the Roman catholic* were seeking to obtain religious ascendancy in this country—be asked those by whom it was made, if they thought that the people of England and of Scotland, and the protestant of Ireland, were a lot of dummies, and totally unable to reed any such attempt. At the conclusion of the right hon. gentleman's address he was enthusiastically cheered. A vote of thanks to the returning officer brought the proceedings to a close. Three cheers were then given for the Queen, in which Mr. Gladstone joined. Mr. Gladstone's carriage was besieged with enthusiastic crowds as be drove away to lunch with Mr. Angerstein.

This morning Mr. Layard, who had vacated his seat for Southwark by his acceptanoe of the office of First Comathuicser of Weeks, was re-elected for Southwark with out opposition. The hustings were erected under an arch near the Borough-road Station of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway, and the proceedings excited but little interest, there being at no time present more than 150 to 200 perms. Dr. Itionnw nominated Mr. Layard, and Mr. Atrial) P 0000: wooded the nomination. Mr. LINARD then addressed the electors at considerable length. He said in accepting office he had acted in ac cordance with the wishes and feelings of his friends in Southwark. Mr. Gladstone, he said, was a man of peace and not of war, and as a minister of peace he was an economical minister, and we should no doubt soon ese a great reduction in our naval and military expenditure. The honourable member abo referred to the eastern question, declaring himself in favour of non-in terventien. and denouncing lard Stanley's speech at Lynn, which be regarded as one of the causes of the pre sent position of the relations between Turkey and Greece. There being no ethic candidates Mr. Layard was de. elated duly elected, and the terminated with a vote of thanks to the High (air exiastium) BIEHINGILLIE, Mostrair.

THE WARDMOTES.-(THIS DAY) Tbia being St. Thoma s ' s Day, according to an nual custom the inhabitants of the various wards through out the City proceeded to the election of representatives in the Court of Common Council. l:v ► PRESIDENT OF THE POOR-LAW BOARD, This day, at 2 o'clock, took place the election of a representative for the city of London to fill the vacancy caused by the acceptance of office by Mr. Gooch's, in the new government, presided over by Mr. Gladstone. As there was no opposition, and the proceedings conse quently were of a merely formal character, there was comparatively little interest felt amongst the few specie. tors that assembled in front of the hustings in Guildhall. Mr. Goodies, on being recognised, was received with loud cheers. The writ having been read, Baron laowr.s. DI ROTILICILII.D. amid renewed cheers, proposed the re-election of the Right Hon. G. J. Goseben. Mr. TROXPSON HANLE; IL P., seconded the nomina tion of Mr. Ooschen. There being no other candidate propose 1, Mr. Alderman Garrott then declared the Right Hon. G. J. Gosc.hen to be duly elected • representative for the City of London. Mr. Goecam, amid general cheering, returned thanks for the honour just conferred on him, and declared that as • minister of the crown all his exertions should be directed to the enactment of measures tending to in crease the comforts and happiness of the people, and to the maintenance of the honour and dignity of the country. One thing was certain, that the programme of policy of the Premier would be precisely the same as that of Mr. Gladstone the late leader of the opposition, and that the liberal policy which he had proclaimed would be carried out to the letter. (Cheers.) The proceedings then terminated with a resolution of thanks to the Sheriffs. VICITERSITY OF LONDON. The election of a member of the House of Com mons to supply the vacancy in the representation of the University of London, arising from the acceptance of the office of Chancellor of the Exchequer by Mr. Lowe, took place at noon, in the new building, Berlington-gardens. The occasion was, under the circumstances, almost purely formal, and but little interest seemed to be felt in the proceedings. The attendance was sinall. The Tics-Cssatcuton (Mr. Grote), having briefly opened the proceedings, and the liminess (Dr. Car penter) having read the writ, Mr. Jrzus Golsen= proposed, and Dr. Qum se conded, the nomination of Mr. Lowe, who was declared duly elected. The Cuurciur.oa of the Excuser= said,—Gentlemen electors of the University of London, I have so recently acquitted myself of the heavy load of gratitude towards you for electing me as your representative to serve in parliament, that I really know not with what words or with what expressions I can do justice to my feelings at the present moment. I thank you most heartily for giving me this renewed proof of your confidence. On my own behalf I thank you, and also on behalf of the government which has been recently formed, because I think I am justified in inferring so much from my election to-day, namely, that you are not displeased with the for mation of that government, and that nothing has passed since we met here on the lest occasion, a month ago, which has diminished your confidence in the leader of that government and in those who support him. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, on a recent occasion I entered at much length into my views on many political questions. I do not think it would be becoming in me, or even respectful to you, were I to detain you with a similar enunciation at the present time. Of course neither can Ibe expected to say anything of the policy of the government, which is really not yet fully coeetituted. My own office, for instance, awaits its consummation this evening. I can only say so much, that lam quite aware I have undertaken an once of very great difficulty and responsibility, and one which I am conscious of being very imperfectly qualified to lIIL I shall be exposed necessarily probably to more criticisms than almost any other member of the government, because I come nearer to that meet susceptible part of the British person—the pocket of his trousers. (Laughter.) Therefore, I beg you, gentlemen, to extend to me your favourable construction when you hear or see harsh things said of me in parliament and in the newspapers, and will remember that he office I hold is one whose business it is emphatically to make itself disagreeable to everybody all round. (Laughter.) My business is to be perpetually refusing what sounds like most reasonable and proper demands, to be interfering with every department of the government, and probably, once a year at least, it may be, I fear, to appear in the very unwelcome character of a person making fresh demands on the tax-payers of this country. Such a man must expect to have his conduct scanned very severely, and I am prepared for it. All I beg of you, gentlemen, is that you will extend a kind construction towards me and remember that Ido not necessarily forfeit the qualities, whatever they were, which induced you to choose me as your member, Imam I bare undertaken EXTRAORDINARY . ATTEMPT TO SHOOT Alf - ZW - 0 - /Wit=i)iti Fii:ari iios: A telegram from Holyhead last night says that whilst Saturday's Irish mail, which leaves London at 7.15 a.m. was passing near llostyn, in North Wales, at 9.30 a.m. from Holyhead at full speed, Elias Wil liams, the up-train driver. noticed a hand with a pistol stretching from the Irish mail towards the up-train. Immediately after pealing, the driver and stoker heard • pistol shot, and witnessed smoke. It is supposed that the shot was aimed at the up-train driver and stoker, as several empty trucks followed the engine. The engine driver reported the case at Chester. The carriage coupler reports hearing a passenger defending renianism before the train started. 4 RAILWAY PASSENGER FILM AT 4 - 81 - ok;a1611r. On Wednesday, while the fast train for Chester field was at full speed, • passenger deliberatelr put a pistol out of a window and fired • bullet at the signalman at Stoneyford, on the Midland Company's 'Crewed% Valley Line. The ballet struck him on the breast, but fortu nately only slightly injured him. A messenger was at once sent to Langley Mill station to telegraph to Chester field, but before attention could be obtained at Chester field the train had gone on to Leeds, so that no clue has been obtained of the offender. What can have been the motive for the outrage is utterly unknown. The Times is enabled to state on authority that there is no truth whatever in the rumours which have been reported in various newspapers as to the unsatis factory state of the Bishop of Lincoln's health. Sir Joseph Napier, ex-Lord Justice of Appeal, and twice Lord Chancellor of Ireland under Lord baby's government, has been nominated a member of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, in the place of the late Lord Kingsdown. The recommendation was made by Lord Cairns, and was confirmed by the present Lord Chancellor of England. Its the first instance of an Irish judge being appointed a member of the Judicial Committee. - 15117:13i.aperonz AND THE Woven OF LANCA amis.—The following is the answer of Mr. Gladstone to a letter addressed to him and signed by 4,810 of the women of Lancashire, in which they expressed their regret that Mr. Gladstone bad ceased to represent their county, and their sympathy with' hie liberal policy : " 11, Carlton. house-terrace, December 18, 1868.—Dear Madam,—The engrossing nature of the task with which I have recently been charged will, I hope, adliciently plead omit excusee t , W r h i g not washhaving sooner replied to by with morel formal to feel that an ac y : ff nowle arts ilment. ent a iota bean make ie:lt public good met with a far mote than just appreciation that my words may appear =naming when I make very unfeignedly, a similar aeknowledgment in th r eqi in stance-.
