THE "EXPRESS" AND THE ELECTIONS. During the Elections, in addition to the ordinary afternoon issue of the EXPRESS, which will contain the latest intelligence from the various Counties and Boroughs up to the hour of going to press, an EARLY EDITION will be published e►ch day shortly after noon, containing telegrams of the Nominations and Polling. received up to that time ; and in a LATE EDITION the Close of the Polls will be given. Advertieseaeate intended foe the WILT =MON cannot be reosived later than 12 o'clock. THE official announcement in both Houses pee terday afternoon of the Lord CUL/MELLOR% resig nation was a formal and ceremonious proceeding, which excited no surprise, and was expected with- out curiosity. The sacrificial majority who had been got together in the Lower House, not without an effort, on Monday evening, had vanished into the country again. Lord PALMERSTON rose to address almost deserted benches, and his words fell with out an echo. It is creditable to the taste and judgment of the Opposition that the vote of the House on Monday night was thus accepted as the sentence of Parliament, and not of a party. Perhaps our Ministerial contemporaries would have served their in structors more judiciously if they had abstained from imputing to party tactics a parliamentary ratification of public opinion. This was no gladia torial exhibition before a populace thirsting for slaughter. Nor could the liveliest imagination pic ture the LORD CIiIi.NCELLOR as a Christian martyr delivered over to the wild beasts in the amphi theatre. Doubtless party feeling and party faction took advantage of the scandal to make a demon stration. Doubtless there is something in a public execution of this kind not entirely disagreeable to the temper of the House of Commons in the dog days. But Mr. Bourvziun, as the mover of an amend ment which became the motion of censure, was particularly careful to insulate his distrust of the LORD CRANCEMLOR from his confidence in the LORD Casirciriika's ministerial colleagues. And more than one member of the Committee on whose Re port the motion of censure was founded, rose on the Opposition side of the House expressly to repudiate any party pur pose in supporting an amendment moved by an influential member on the Ministerial side of the House and accepted on the other side by the author of the original motion, Mr. HUNT. In resisting Lord PALMERSTON'S motion for the adjournment of the House Mr. Dnutaxia may have been, more or less, inspired by party considerations. It is difficult to draw the line be tween party considerations and a due regard for public duty in such a case. Unquestionably Mr. Disnazu had the feeling of both sides of the House with him, and the feeling of the whole country. It was, perhaps, impossible that Mr. Mina's original motion of censure should appear untainted with party spirit; but Lord PALMICR WON'S motion for adjournment looked not the leas like a party trick. To interpret the motive of every lawyer's vote on such an occasion would be invidious ; these solemn parliamentary verdicts will not always bear a very close analysis. Nevertheless, we are convinced that in this in stance the House of Commons has set its seal upon public opinion, and that public opinion, without hesitation or reluctance, endorses the terms of Mr. Bouvlaia's amendment which superseded Mr. HuNr's motion of censure. Our ministerial con- temporaries, we are persuaded, will be well ad vised, even on the lowest grounds of opportune ness and expediency, if they desist from the error of confounding the generous defence of the CEIANCEILOR by his colleagues with a collective ministerial interest in his condemnation or ac quittal. In deference to the vote of the House of Com mons, it appears that Lord WESTBURY has deemed it to be his duty, through the First Minister, to tender her MAJESTY the resignation of his office. Lord PALMERSTON informs the HOBOS that as early as the beginning of the pre sent year the CMANCILLOR, "stung in his feelings" by the various attacks which were made upon him from various quarters, had often pressed upon him that " his resignation should be conveyed to " her MAJESTY." But Lord PALMERSTON bad " upon public and upon private and personal 4 ! grounds" declined to accept that resignation, because if the Cusrscexxon had resigned in con sequence of these attacks, "some of them ano• " nymous," he would thereby have seemed to admit the ehargea made " even more " were actually made ;" maimed st his post there must be a Pas- liemenbiry ingeiey, whisk would entirely acquit him of auy corrupt motive. This was • very °ha, racteristic movement on the pert of the Paulin% and, had not the publication of the Report and eM dance on the Leeds inquiry been somewhat hastened, one mua almost imagine the Paining " on public and oil private and personal grounds " advising the Caancmos to withhold his resigna tion, *A least, until after the excitement of the general election had subsided, and the long vaca tion bad quieted the public mind. Such advice would have been characteristic of a stableman who has learnt in the Course of a long and various expo _ Ammo the all-healing efficacy of time. But we must do the CaLweaukl the justice to *Arnow _ ledge that in pressing his resignation upon the Parana at the beginning of the year he showed a jester sense not only of what was due to his own reputation and convenience, but of what was due l to the comfort of his colleagues. The CHANCIILLOI4 it seems, wasott a very early period in this sad eventful history, " stung by the various attacks " which were made upon him," "some of them " anonymous." Lord PaLmaaerox of course he learnt to make light of "anonymous" attacks, and begged the CHAYCHLLOR to treat them with con tempt. The cruel insinuation that the CHLN CELLOR had, at the moment of his appointment, got rid of his own conscience to make room for his Sovereign's, lit,' we rejoice to find, entirely disposed of by the fact that he had • conscience as early as the beginning of this year ; and a conscience so sensitive as to be idling by " anonymous" attacks. Lord WiSTBURY seems to have understood better than Lard PSLMISIISTON that anonymous attacks are only to be feared in proportion to their veracity. Anonymous calumnies recoil upon their authors, and cover thp• with shame ; there is no sting in slander, except for the slanderer. It is the office of a free press in a free country to anticipate, and sometimes to demand, parliamentary inquiries, but no shield of the anonymous can in our day protect a journal from the discredit and disgrace of attempt ing to assassinate the reputation of blameless public ' , men. Lord WESTBURY could not have been wounded by anonymous assailants, if professional envy or political malignity only had dealt the state in the dark. It was the authenticity of facts which were destined to fill pages in the Reports of two Parliamentary Committees that lent the sting to these "anonymous attacks." For our own part, we are fully persuaded that no personal, no professional, no political jealousies and rancour. have struck down the CIIANCILLI.OR from his pride of Owe, though here and there, among his assailants in the press and in Parliament, some private grudge may have assumed the garb of public vir tue. It is the happiness of few men of com manding intellect and will to scale the perilous aummits of professional ambition without making more enemies than friends. Lord WESTBURY MY not of the happy few. If blessed be he against whom all men speak, Lord WESTBURY has been rich in blessings. Nor have his qualities con tributed to his beatification lees than his defects. All superiority, a charming Frenchwoman has said, is a sort of exile. Lord WILSTBURY'S vast in tellectual superiority to his competitors and col leagues has not perhaps been sufficiently dissembled, and its too frequent and too conscious exhibition has isolated him from those sympathies which should accompany the crowning honours of a great career. AU his honours and rewards were well and hardly earned by years of unremitting professional labour and diligence ; by the confidence and admiration of hosts of clients ; by the assenting, if not the willing, homage of the whole Bar; and by • brief but brilliant record of parliamentary services for which his countrymen cannot be ungrateful. and which will be remembered long after his family disgraces are forgotten. But that strong imperious intellect and that scornful sense of superiority have lacked the softening and forgiving graces of manner and disposition which are needed to disarm the envy of the Gods, and the curious malice of mortals. His exceeding powers and exceeding weaknesses have conspired to make Lord W ma- BURY a conspicuously lonely figure among public men ; lonely in his success ; and lonely in his fall. Yet it is not by the hands of his enemies that he has fallen, for his most insidious and unrelenting enemies could not cut even a momentary stain upon his personal honour. It is to the busy arts of • band of too familiar, too trusted friends that he has succumbed ; and it is the sting of a wound sharper than • serpent's tooth that has pierced him through and through. The most malignant wish we find it in our hearts at this moment to utter against Lord WYWIIIVILY is that, untrammelled by the responsibilities and temptations of office, he may enjoy many years to come of public useful ness and labour, as • consummate interpreter and fearless reformer of the laws of his country, and that his present misadventure may have been no total eclipse, but rather the passing cloud that obscures for an instant a luminary destined to set in glory. The honour of such men is part of the honour of England. tizaaamaL l Y ARRIVAL OF THE GE lA. SOUTHAMPTON, JULY 5.

(TOON OUlt Owl PABII3, TozaDAT Emma. The Americans in Paris are at this moment en joying the most charming celebration of their great national fate day, the 4th of July, that was ever seen here. During the civil war the late lamegted Mr. Dayton did not think it deairabte to hold any great official rejoicings. But now that the cause of the North, or in other words, of the Union, has obtained such a signal triumph as to leave the in tegrity of the stars and the stripes unquestioned, Mr. Bigelow has oonoeived she happy idea of giving his countrymen in Franoe a wider field for the expansion of their joy than his residence could afford. He has hired for the day the beautiful Pra Catalan, that lovely garden, which the Persian Ambassador, Ferouck Khan, who was here when it was opened by a speculator, who spent a fortune upon it, declared was the beet imitation he had ever seen of Paradise, and where he went to smoke his pipe every evening. In the - 144 Catelan, in a fine summer's afternoon as was ever seen, there are at this moment assembled at least 500 Americans. Ladies in fresh summer toilettes, and children form a very large proportion of the joyous meeting. A green flagstaff on the lawn bears an enormous star-spangled banner waving on its summit, and a fascine of flags surrounds the base. Around this flag the company are dancing and singing. In a tent adjoining champagne corks are flying around dinner tables supplied with that profusion, not separated from simplicity, which distinguishes American hospitality. The fate was officially opened by the reading by the Rev. Mr. Lansom of the Bth chapter of Deuteronomy. Of course speeches have been pronounced, but I am not able to describe them, because the fête is so strictly national that nobody but American citizens were invited, with the exception of the Corps Diplomatique. The en tertainments are to wind up with fire-works. M. Emile de Girardin proclaims his opinion in the Prase that the Emperor's work on Algiers is far superior to his history of Julius Caesar. Prince Mustapha Pacha, now in Paris, has sent out to Egypt, at his own cost, several French physicians to give gratuitous succour to all persons, without distinction of nationality or religion, who may be attacked by the prevailing epidemic. Dr. Fevre, the editor of the Gazette Medicate, has already started, taking with him • large medicine chest.

About two months back the New York Journal of Commerce estimated the stook of cotton en hand in tie South at 1,500,000 bales. Other papers disputed this cal culation, and various statements were put forth pretending to give more exact conclusion', some asserting that 3,000,0001 bales would be found to bo the amount, and some thin it as low se 500,000. The Journal of Commerce now returns to the subject, and stetes that the result of extensive and earefal inquiries in the interval has been to confirm its original view. Much of the cotton is unginned, and a con siderable portion of this, from long contact with the oily seed, will, it is said, be more oe less damaged. Tins COI:WAIN. AND THZ RarniEvr..—The execu tion of Oharlee H. Wallets for the murder of his mistress. Nancy E. Vincent, which was to have taken place at the Tombs yesterday, was postponed by order of Governor F e nton until the 7th proximo.

He at once telegraphed the fact to the Sheriff, and said he would be on hand in the morning with the neemeary papers. This was the only notice the Sheriff received, end the friends of the eciodemned man anxiously awaited the arrival of ex-Judge Stud to ese if the mews wail true. In the hurry and confusion attending the undertaking ex-Judge Stuart missed the night train from Albany which arrives in this city about hall pact lOo'olock, and was obliged to rail beak upon the uncertainty of a steamboat, which ought to have arrived hare about 5 o'clock. Unfortunately a thick fog eat in on the river soon after the departure of the boat, which canoed a delay of several honrs,rendering the conneel's position decidedly uneasy. He knew that it was Walters' express de sire that the execution should take place u early as possible, and he wee fearful that the reprieve might not snivel° time. The fog still hung our the channel of the river, and the host's progress was so slow that it was really a matter of doubt whether she would reach her wharf in time to be of any advantage to poor Walters.

True to his word, the captain landed his paragon at the appointed hoer, and the way the ex j jumped ashore before the gang plank was out, and made straight for a carriage. was a sight worth eosins.

She spoke to Mrs. Taylor dying soddenly, and to finding in the pocket of her dtess, after her death, a small bottle half-fall of • brown liquid, like laudanum. She observed Mrs. Taylor's body all coloured on the left side, a purplish sort of colour. After the body of Mrs. Taylor was dressed, Dr. Pritchard came and asked for the bottle that we found in Mrs. Taylor's pocket. Hal said to witnew when he saw the bottle, "Good Heaver), ! has she taken this much since Tuesday?' and charged witness to say nothing about it, as it would not do for • man in his petition to be "pokes of. A day or two before Mrs. Pritchard died witness found • small piece of shore on a plate in the pantry, and took off a little bit and ate it, when she fodnd it had • bitter taste. Shortly after tasting the chute the felt a bunting sensation in her threat, which was followed by sieksew and vomiting and pain in the stomach and bowels. On the fol lowing day, thelfith Marsh, Dr. Pritchard asked wheals to make some egg-flip for Mrs. Pritchard, and gave her a whole egg to beat up smooth in • porter glass. Witness did so in the pantry, and prisoner went from the pantry into the dining-room, then from the dining-room to his consulting room, and then frees the con sulting room into the pantry. Witness law prisoner drop pima of lump-angar into the glue outaining the beaten egg. Witness afterwards tasted the egg-fiip, and said, " What a horrible taste !" She then felt a burning sensation in the throat, and became sick, and vomited, and had the same symptoms as she had after tasting the cheese. On the day of Mn. Pritchuts death witness was in her bedroom , and saw her finishing something out of a porter glass. Dr. Pritchard was 'tenths( over her at the bedside. Mrs. Pritchard got very ill ; and in the same afternoon was attacked with cramp in the hand and died. Witness described the painted somw at her death, and said that the prisoner called out, "Come back, coma back, my dear Mary Jade, sod do not leave your dear Edward." Dr. Pritchard also said, after his wife's death, "What a brute! what a wretch ! so gentle, so mild ;" and he asked witness to take the ride kept by a boarder in the home and shoot him. When witness rebuked him, telling him perhaps he was unprepared to " stead before • righteous God," the prisoner replied, "Mary Paterson, you are the wisest and kindest woman ever I saw."

Dr. Gardner, professor of medicine in the University of Glasgow, said be was called in twice by Dr. Pritchard to visit his wife, the first time on the Bth end the second on the 9th of March. On the first visit he found Mrs. Pritchard in • state of excitement, which he attributed to stimulanta, • combination of champagne and chloroform. When he went from the bedside to the fireside, Mrs. Pritchard coned to witness, " Oh, you cruel, cruel man— don's leave me." Witness thought they were the oxalates- tions of an intoxicated woman, and ordered Dr. Pritchard to discontinue stimulant', as it was • very bad practice. He gave the same order at his second visit next day. Dr. Paterson, of Glasgow, was called in late at night on the 24th of February to see the mother-in-law and wife of the prisoner. Dr. Prit. chard told him his mother-in-law and Mrs. Prit chard had been partaking of some bitter beer for supper' soon after which they both became sick and vomited, and both complained that the beer was more bitter to the taste than usual. Witness described the symptoms of the illness of both ladies, the mother-in-law being in a dying state and unconscious, as if suffering from a powerful narcotic, and the wife appeared to be under the influence of antimony. He formed the opinion from what he saw of Mrs. Pritchard while visiting her that the had been having antimony given to her for some time. His impression was that she wag being poisoned by antimony, and in ercesaxamination he said he formed that opinion simply by looking at her. Ho refused a certificate to the registrar as to the cause of death of the mother-in-law. Tie never mentioned poison to Mrs. Pritchard, bemuse the treatment be prescribed, provided she got nothing else, was quite 'officio:it to bare brought her , round. Ho did not communicate to Dr. Pritchard his sus picion as to Mrs. Pritchard being poisoned with antimony , became he did not think it would have been Rafe to do eo. James Smithey; registrar of deaths, proved that Dr. Pritchard, in his certificate, ascribed the death of Mrs. Tay lor to paralysis, and of his wife to gastric fever. Dr. Patterson was recalled, and said that, in • letter which be sent to the registrar, he told the registrnr that the death of Mn. Taylor " was extemely sudden, unexpected, and to him mysterious." Dr. Cowan, Edinburgh, • frisad of Mrs. Pritchard, spoke to the Rinses of Mrs. Taylor and Mete. Pritchard, and said that Dr. Pritchard and Mrs. Taylor bad always lived on good terms with each other. Mr. Taylor, the father-le-law of the prisoner, gave mi asmas as to the death of his wife and daughter, arid spoke total daughter having been sick while on a visit to his house in Edinburgh. about Christmas last, and getting better before she left. His daughter and her husband appeared to live happily together. The court adjourned at 6 o'clock till Wednesday at 10. THD3 DAY. (BY nzenuc OWN OOR OWN CONZEBPONDINT.) EDINBURGH, WITNISDLY. John Campbell, manager of the Apothecsries' Company, Glasgow, deposed to-day that the prier:mar bought more chloroform during last year and this than all other canto men together. The prisoner was also in the habit of buying unusually large quantities of aconite, tartarised antimony, and other poisons. Professor Madigan read a report, which stated that Mrs. Pritehard'a death must be ascribed to the action of antimony, and that from the extent to which the organs and fluids were impregnated, it must have bean taken in repeated doom. 35. - OF MR. 00XWELL'S NEW BALLOON. to. INJURY TO TEM ANRONALTTL (From the Northern Whig of Belfast.) Yesterday (Monday) the balloon ascent of Mr. Coxweß, the celebrated seronant, took place from the Royal Botanic Gardens. The weedier was magoillesol. The " Research," the name given to the present halloos, is the largest aerial machine ever constructed, and when In flated palmeate a very hoodoo:as as well a gigantic sprier. ante. It is painted a light brown colour, sidieved mud the centre with devices In yellow, and the wet* " Reetereh." It wee purekseedl by public suloperiptima, and preemetcd to Mr. Corwell by ausconittes of scientific gentle. num, in order that the educe of aerialdiecovery which, in conjunction with Mr. Glaisher , he has pursued with snob unweaded devotion, and which hes &Wady led to highly useful es well as interesting ninths, might net be later rupted, as was likely to be the one after the disaster to he Britannia 'at Leloestar. The first and only meat made by the Research previously to yesterday was made at York • fortnight ago, when Mr. Ornswell took up with him the Lord Mayor of the city and other gentlemen. Probably, from 10,000 to 12,000 people were in the pe dens, end the open and beautiful sward in front of the conservatory presented a most animated appearasce with the moving throng of welldreesed ladies end gentle mss. It was nearly 5 o'clock before the balloon was completely iallated, sod, at a quarter to 6, the moister " Ressuch " proudly rose late the air, end hooded over the beads of the spectators in • north-westerly direction. We are indebted to one of the' gentlemen who made the wont for the following seeettnt of the disutaoes adventures of the party "The wind, which was very light, carried us slowly over the town in • northerly direction, and the Linen Hall, Barracks, Court-home, Jail, he., were clearly seen ; but, at the height we had attained, appeared of the smallest dimen does. Puling over the Oars Hill the view wee really mar ailloent ; Belfast, Liras. sad Strome:4A Imugba were clearly seen, and Lough Neagh, though rather dim from a bass over it,'could be distinctly tracertby the help of a glass. The wind, ever capricious, drove us for a short time Inland, sad it was thought our resting-place would be Ballymena, but another change took us straight far Glenarm Bay, Menem and Oeraloegh were distinctly seen, and it was intended by Mr. Oozwell to make the descent near latter place. Unfortunately the valve at the top of the balloon did not ant so quickly se is usual, and, la eouseijuseee. instead of slighting is the valley where we had proposed, the balloon west along at • great pace, bumping with considerable force against the side of the hills above Carnlough. None but thou present coo have say idea of the fearful nature of these collisions; but our readers may have some nodes of their cha racter when we mention that the reporter of the Morning News got several ribs broken, and even the most fortunate had some bruise or wound to show. After bumping along for nearly • mile—the anchor or grapnel occasionally holding and then suddenly giving way, shaking the car about as if it were a feather in the air— the cord which opened the valve allowirg the gee to escape suddenly broke, end there was then no chance for the occupants of the car but to escape as best they could. Two gentlemen, who were apparently perfectly paralysed with fear, did not mopped to the cry to jump out, and to our horror the balloon took • sudden surge, and they were carried up many hundred feet in a few seconds into the air. Nothing could be dose to save them. We all ran as quickly as possible after the balloon ; but, as it was sailing majestically away at about twenty miles an hour, it soon palmed over the hills, and was to our sight. We sadly walked over to Osnalondh, sheet three miles off, thinking of our unfortunate oompanions. We saw the balloon several times on our way at a considerable distance, apparently about two miles high, but our last glimpee of it was in Carelough, apparently sinking over the Clulteradall hills. We understand the names of the gentlemen an Mr. Rungs, a German, and Mr. Rafferty, ofLondonderry." lOLA LAW INTELLIGKNOZ. (THIS DAY.) 001711 T ON QUKKN ' S BENCH.

Other witnesses stated that they were a lonia-dealer, a pork-dealer, and a sthaspe , maker, and that they bought putrid cows for the pounces of selling them to the kasokers.
