Per lect ly impervious to the fallacies and toe:sarcasm of Lad G. Bentinek ;Ind Mr. Disraeli, he would rise at the conclusion of a ! h rce• h our set speech, and with half-a-dozen sentences from the PrieesCureent,or the back numbers of the 3fark-lane Lxiness, knock the whole fabric of nonsense about their ears lie is gotm as Mr. Cardwell is gone, in great measure because he is a Peelite, and a Peelite is merely nominis umbra. It only shows what vitality there was in the policy of that great man, that' for so long a pert- d after his death mere re verence to his name - could in some measure form a bond of union amongst a knot of able and active politicians. The lofty views of Sir Robert Peel will remain for ever on record in our Parliamentary :annals, and the beneficial effects Of his commercial policy will long continue to be felt by the British people,vho owe to him so deep a elebt of gratitude, but Peelites can exist no . more as a political party. In one sense we are all Peelitese . We say" all," because his most invete rate opponents are at this time paying the highest tribute to the value of his greet po itical achievements. We all reve rence. the memory of . the departed Statesman, but a political patty cannot be heldlOgether upon sympathies and regrets. ,The rejection of Mr. Pusey for Beikshire was, perhaps, of all, the most singularly ill-timed. If this gentleman yielded to conviction,-it was because conviction'eame upon him with So much force that all struggle was in vain.

Th us they have dis carded their clever servant, and have taken e dull,one in hi s place , who will be a mere fi tting colleague to Mess rs . Ilanbury and Booker. The rejection of Mr. Grantley Berkeley for West Gloucestershire is more intelligible. The constituency was probably sick of a private squabble between two brothers, about which no living man, bus the Eteoclei and Polynices of the affair, cared a single frraw. His last desperate rush for a return by his agricultural protection motion of:1850 could not save him, or replace so ricketty a candidate upon his legs. Had the intelligence of his resignation reached u s yesterday, we should have been inclined - to class his name with-that of some other gentlemen of whom the House of Commons is fairly rid. • [Pa dB RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY BRANCH FROM FARNHAM TO •ALTON. The Government Inspector, Captain Dalton, accompanied by Mr. John Bass, the company's engineer, and Mr. Patrick Ogilvie, the contractor, Mr. Brassey's agent, went over the new branch of the line on Saturday, and minutely examined all the works, which appear to have been completed in the most satisfactory manner. This line is nine miles in length, passing through a most picturesque country, including the Valley of the Wey and a .portioa of the bat Forest. • Ar rangements, we believe, were made for opening the line 'yesterday, but we have received no communication on the subject up to the time of going to press. RAILWAY TEAFFIC.—It appears'from the report of Captain Simmons, Royal Engineer to the Railway Department of the Board of Trade, that the number of passengers travelling on railways in England and I; ales, which in 1850 amounted to 58,514,435, reached 70,471,179 in 1851, showing an increase of 20 per cent., while the receipts from those passengers rose from 5,885 1 ,603/. to , 6,952,612/., being Lan increase of 18 per cent. The mean length of railway upon which this traffic was con ducted had increased in the same period only 6.6 per cent. It appears that in the preceding years for which returns of traffic have been prepared the average annual in crease in the length of railways in England and Wales 'has been 21 per cent., being more than three times the rates of last year; and that while the average number of passengers has increased annually 11 . 03 per cent., the receipts from passengers. have increased 6,1 p er cent . H ence it would ap.. pear that although the railway communications in England and Wales have, in the past year, increased at a rate much below the average (being about one-third), the number of passengers has increased at a rate nearly amounting to double the annual average, and the receipts derived from them at nearly three times the ordinary rate of increase. The num ber of passengers in the last year has exceeded the number which would have been conveyed by railways. if they had only increased at the ordinary rate, by 5,502,602; and the receipts from them in the same manner by 687,1381. The increase is in a great measure to be attributed to the vast facilities for travelling afforded to the public by means of excursion trains, which, in 1850, had received a great impulse, but was developed in an extraordinary degre- in the past year daring the Exhi bition. The mean length of railway open for traffic in &a line' during the year has increased 6.2 per cent , while the number of passengers has only increased from 8,444,191 to 9,2"6,313, or 4.9 per cent., and the receipts from them from 600,082/. ta 622,549 i., or 3.7 per cent. The mean length of railway open for traffic in Ireland during the year has increased 12'4 per cent., while the numoer of pusengers conveyed has only increased from 5,495,796 to 5,633,603, or '2.5 per cent.; the receipts from them having risen from 339,0761. to 365,6034 or 7.8 Eng land and Wales the receipts for gaols - 5,849,771/. to 6,044,1834 or 10.3 in Ireland, from 721,176/. to 814,0531., or 12.8 per per h c a e v n e t . risen I n from; Thein Scotland, general from 174,959/ to 198,4591., or 13.4 p n erc c ecenatliC: results of tra ffi c over all the railways to 85;i91,095; being - in er th e e United Kingdom show 0 amountedh at the a t g o g 7 : 2 e ftiast4e4n2u2m; bficiosfspastengers conveyed in per cent.

Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Ratcliffe, of the firm of Fladgate and Starke, again attended on the part of the steam-boat com pany ; and Mr. Lewis appeared on behalf of the friends of the deceased. The evidence, like that given at Guildhall before the presiding alderman, was very contradictory. The witnesses were Robert Davies, a printer, ivho 'was on hoard the Dahlia when the • accident happened, John Maddox, mate of the Dahlia, Alfred Cresswell, a butcher, Mrs. Weston, one of the persons saved from ' the shallop, and several others.

TREVE Lv A N s t oo d f orward amid loud cheers. He naaaitde he e e tatitte tor(this division of Northumberland.—(Cheers.) He need not, lhe was sure, - enlarge on the merits of the Right Hon. Baronet as their 'representative. Those merits were well knenvn. For many years he had been the able advocate of all the most useful and important measures which bad been ; brought before - the House of Commons. He had been always ready at his post to advocate those measures, and that policy, any attempt to reverse which, he need hardly say, would be attended with the greatest Calamity to this country.—(Loud cheers.) And ' these we..*e measures which, he was sure, came home to the hearts of most present; they were measures which had brought prosperity and happiness to the hemes of all classes —and to the landowners amongst others, as well as to the labourer. Thus much he could safely assert of those mea sures; and he confidently trusted that the returns made by the constiocencies of the country generally would effectually prevent any such calamity as the reversal of these measures. —(Cheer:,.) He kne w t h a t t h ere was a di v i s i o n in the Tory c anap on this subject; and, with their leave, he would read the opinion —or he ought to say one of the last opinions of the snpporters of the present Government upon this sub jest.—(X.nughter.) At th e el ec ti on for one of the divisions of Devonshire, a Right Hon. Baronet, an honest man, and a supporter of the Government, was asked if he would not vote 'for a re-imposition of the corn- I aws, it such a measure was proposed, di rectly or if, directly. His answer was this: —He said, a verdict on this question had been solemnly given by the country, aster many, many, years' consideration ; and he was not the man to dispute that verdict, nor was he aware that such a man was to be found, unless it was in some one who had escaped from a lunatic asylum.—(Cheers and laughter.) He (Sir Walter.) trusted they would guard against such escapes, and that_this division of the county would once more do their duty . by-returning Sir George Grey at the head of the poll.—(Cheers.) He concluded by nominating Sir George Grey as a most fit representative for that divi sioa of the county.— (Loud cheers.) P. J. SELBY, Esq., briefly seconded the nomination, calling atientien to the public life of Sir George Grey, as a triumphant proof of his fitness to represent them, and, of his having fulfilled the promises which he made to them when they last elected him. ()sweet - CRESSWELL,. Esq., then proposed Lord Lovaine; and his proposition having been seconded by Joliet COOK SON, Esq., the candidates addressed the meeting in the order as follows : — Gentlemen, I in which they had been proposed.

Gentlemen, during the course of my canvass, and up to the time when I came into Alnwick this morning, I• did not know whether I was to meet my noble opfenente .as Protectionists or Free-traders.—(A laugh.) Thee has been so much shuffling and evasion upon this question —so much talk about the farmer's friend in one direction, and so much about the labourer's friend and the big loaf in another, that I did not know, I say, whether I was coming to-day to meet a Protectionist opponent or a repentant sinner, converted, though late, to the advocacy of free trade.— (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I heartily congratulate you on the fact which is now beyond dispute, of the late, though I doubt not, the sincere repentance of my noble friend Lord Ossulston.—(Cheers.) He has added one to that goodly list of funeral orations over a departed friend—, (Laughter)—which through the length and breadth of the country we have lately heard from candidates professing an unbounded confidence in Lord Derby's Administration.—. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, all that I could extract from the ad dress of my Noble Friends was, that they were confiding supporters of Lord Derby and Lord Derby's Government. I accordingly came here prepared to ask them whether they were prepared to support the Protectionist Lord Derby of 1851, pledged if ever in office to attempt are-imposition of the confidence hay) duty on corn, or of Lord De r by the Free-trader, wh o t h rough his nearest relation, Lo r d St an l e y, whohas lately h ad to meet his constituents, pro c l a i ms th a t a return to p rotection is a b s olutely impossible.—(Hisses from the supporte rs of Lords L o vaine and Ossulsto n .)

I believe 'that the true friend of the farmer is the man who dares to tell him the truth -(Cheersa—and not the man who panders to delusion, or endeavours to induce you to follow and expect what is now admitted to be a phantom—(Loud cheers.) Gentlemen I have always told you—l said it on these hustings five yea ' s ago, and I have said it wherever I have, in agricultural meert • , elsewhere, met any large portion of Ines or (and always happy have I been to meet there, and I thank them sincerely for their kind reception of ine ) -1 have al ways held, I say, that the true interest of the farmers con sisted, not in following what is utterly impracti ca bl e, but in procuring equitable arrangements as to their rents, and an plying their energies to increase the _preduction of the sal and not by seeking through Acts of Parhament, to raise the price of corn, or. in other words, to raise the price of the people's sustenance.— (Loud cheering.)

The quarterly ac counts were submitted for approval. It appeared that th t receipts amounted to 1,2651. and the disbursements to 8151, leaving a balance of 450/. A few of the items in the ac count were objected to and underwent considerable discus sion. of 41. 9s. for the secretary's assistant was to poundage to, but finally allowed.

Let them t a k e care that the matter b e not _ narrowly looked into -that that th e exemptions which already exist in favour of . agriculture ire not assailed ; for without re ference to the income-tax which presses alike upon all—itmay turn out that th e vaunted re-adjustment may b e more likely to leave you more heavily burdened that at present.— (Cheers and disapp ro b at i on.) But this re - a djustment of taxation is only another leaf taken out of the book of their opponents. Sir R. Peel advoeetted the same, and it Is from that the free-trade policy has been established — (Cheers)—and that those barriers have been broken down which for a long time were placed bet Ween the wants of the people and that supply which a bountiful Providence has provided for then; from all the nations of the earth.— e (Applause.) Gentleme n , I hope my Noble Friend will be required to p rom i se you, the &loners of Northumber land, some a d van t age clearly defined, before you give your vote i n or d er to displace me. I find, gent l eme n, that the issue is no w a t tempted to be shifted. It is not now to be between free trad e an d protection.—(Hear, hear.) The proposer of my N o bl e F riend, Lord Ossulston, has said—and lam obliged. to hie n for it—that in my private capacity he respects me, but that i n my political capacity the Constitu tion may net be s a f e if y ou *es. -swan Me to Parliament. I see before me a bann er b ear i ng the colours of my Noble Oppo nent, an inscription-eo Ou r &d ells C onst i tu ti on , may it never be pulled down ;"—and to that sentiment I most hear tily respond. I believe Lam as ardent a friend of the Con stitution as my Noble Opponent can be, and, judgirg of the future by what my Parliamentary career, and that of those with whom I have acted fqr the past has been, I leave you to consider .whether,or not thia,charge has any foundation. — (Cheers.) [At tine stage of tile proceedings an exceedingly heavy shower of rain came on, and the greater portion of the meeting having been obliged to go hastily off to take shelter, Sir George Grey Yeas obliged to break off his discourse. Th e shower having gone off in about ten minutes, however, the people returned, and the Right Honourable Baronet proceeded as follows:—] Gentle men, he continu e d, I regret for your sakes the tempo rary interruption w hi c h h as been caused in Your proceedings. I hope, my friend, Lord L ova i tae, may .be favoured with sun shine_during the time hte maysturldrese von. I`-must, how ever, add a few w or d s i n defence of - myself against the charges brought a ga i nst me, though I tun almost ashamed to repeat charges s o un f ounded. It has been said by my friend Mr. Ord, in proposin g L ord Ossulston, that though as a private character I wa s unexceptionable, yet in my public capacity lam prepared to ally myself with men • who would conspire to pull down the constitution and to undermine the monarchy under which we so happily live, and to establish a republic in its place. To all the charges of this nature which have to-day been brought against me I make no denial and no assertion; but I appeal to a public life of twenty yearS— to my life as a Member of Parliament and a Minister of the Crown ; and I ask you if I 'have not done as much to up hold th, se institutions as my Noble Friend Lard Ossulston, who has broaght those . charges against me—(Hear, hear)—it I have not 'always sought to uphold the constitution and promote order and good govern ment under it= and whetlier we had not the satisfaction of leaving to our successors in office, the present Administra tion, a people contented, happy, and prosperous, and firmly attached to the Sovereign under whose benignant sway we live —(Loud cheers.) If, by these charges, it is meant that you should desire to send a Member to Parliament who will say no to every proposition for extending popular rights and franchise:, then I say lam not your man.—(Cheers.) I would nut go to Parliament for any constituency on such a principle; ten thousand times rather would I retire at once into the ranks of private life, than go to Parliament as a mere drag upon the wheel of progress. I have during my public life given my careful and honest advocacy to measures and principles which I believe have conduced eminently to the peace, the prosperity, and the good go vernment of the country, and the consequent hap piness and contentment of our population; and I say I am prepared to consider from time to time whether popular rights and popular franchises may not be extended within the strict limits of the Constitution, and in propor tion to the growing intelligence and growing education of the people —(Cheers.) And I ask my Noble Friend, if he can, to put his finger upon any act of mine, either as a Mi nister of the Crown or a Member of Parliament, which bears out the assertion made concerning me; let my Noble Friend do so, and I Will retire at once from the contest, for I feel I should then be • wholly unworthy to present myself to your notice My public life is before you. I stand before you to give no new promises, no new pledge. My public life, gen tlemen, from its beginning to its end, is before you. In a large constituency like this it cannot be that all of you have agreed with every vote I have given or with the sentiments I have expressed on every particular occasion ; but I appeal to my general policy. Look at the course I have generally and unifermly carried out, and compare it with that of the party which my Noble Friend supports ; and if you still share those principles which since I firstappealed to you I have pro fessed, then let those principles be maintained on your part; then only, 'do I ask for your support. I now turn to that formidable bugbear which, from time to time, as I have been upon the track of my Noble Friends in this contest, I have found has been left associated with the names of Cob den and Bright in connexion with myself in order to lead you to displace me and to elect one of those Noble Lords in my place. F And here again I ask you not to be led away by assertions, pot to be frightened by a bugbear. I ask you again to look at my conduct. I are say . you have already watched it, and you will be able tnjudge whether my course in reference to those respected representatives of the largest constituencies in the country, all those persevering advocates of the free-trade policy, has - been such as to lessen my claim on your support; and you will have observed that it has been my misfortune repeatedly to oppose them in those opinions which they have felt it their duty to support in the House of Commons.—(Cheers.) There is no alliance between me and any oth er man , b e he Mr. Cobden or any one else, than an alliance o f p rinc i p l e. If I find a man agrees with me in an important principle, I rejoic e t o ac t w ith him.—(Cheers.) I rejoice all the more if I find that he has been se lected as the representative of the largest in the empire; and whatever constituency a ma n may Y I shall been sent by, if I find him dangerous or unsafe the always offer him my determined opposition. Wily' sir, men whole speech of my Noble Friend to-day has been a not measures.. And indeed, he supports a Government constituency which have no measures exc©t those which they have coun try, as coming from this able, this efficient, and this s trong borrowed from their p r edecessors—every one of that goodly list of measures which has been paraded through the Government, having been bequeathed to them in an whom ad vanced state of preparation by their predecessors, as good measures, with the exception of the MOW iilittrio the efficiency of which remains to be tested. I ask Ya tions. support men who take no pains to shroud their intentions. 1 was one, and, You ought to know what principle will guide your ~,... represen tatives before you tender them your support. For myself , 1 a ate am prepared, if you send me again to Parliameat, to advocate the and as such, I am bound to say I regaafdthoe.mo, the same principles which I have hitherto advocatedn . acted upon.

NORTHUMBERLAND (SOUTH). • DECLARATION OF THE POLL.-RIOTOUS PRO, CEEDINGS AT HEXEIAM. The town of Hexham has been in a state of great excite• ment since Friday last. Mr. Liddell's committee rooms at the Black Bull and the Sun Inn were beset on Saturday by crowds of people, who insisted on that gentleman's colours being withdrawn. This demand not being complied with the crowd threw volleys of stones, and the windows of both men were broken. The Newcastle police were then sent for, and the appearance of about twenty of these officials armed with cutlasses did not tend to allay he excitement. A col lision took place during the night; the police charged the crowd, and need their staves pretty freely. Several heads were bruised or broken.

Sit:,—The racing yesteiday at Stamford came off m uc h in the way r imagined it Would—Retail, for the Burghley Stakes, being the only exception. The meeting at Nottiogham—this' year a tolerable one—is marked for decision to-morrow.and Friday; it commences with the Robin Hood Stakes of 10 soya. each, with 50 added, for two yrs old. The entry includes the names of Placid, Whalebone, Lambton, and Exact. Placid is penalisd 7lbs, and Lambton 4:bs, consequently the former will have to carry Bst 101 b, and the latter Bst illb. This, without Mas saroni or the Gip, two darkies, are of some account, would seem to give the race to ExAcT, Bst 31b. The Nottinghamshire Handicap of 20 soys. each, 10 ft, &c., will, in all probability, be contested by a email field, consistinis of the following ;—Goldfinder, Retail (Ms ex tra), Gholab Singh, Ischia, Babette, and perhaps Cindrick. The race lexp ec t w ill b e confined to Goldfinder, Retail, and Babette; Ischia b e i ng the only one of the oppoiition side likely to trouble this trip. The result will probably be in favour of the crack • , GOLDFINDER, Babette and Retail finishing second and third, with Ischia close up : ' , The Sherwood Handicap is almost certain to have THE SHROPSHIRE WITCH and ITALIAN first and seconkl. ' The Scarborough Stakes and • Members' Plate, together with the Queen's Plate, Grand Stand, and Forest Stakes, are not yet closed. The Chesterfield Handicap of 15 - sovs. each, 10 ft, &c.; mile and a half, will have but a small field; the issue, to my thinking, being in favour of LIUMPHREY, CANDLEWICK, and PURITAN, they finishing as placed. • - The 13unney Park Stakes of- 10 sow. each, 5 ft, will, I should imagine, ,hav,e • the following for starters :—Placid, Bst 61b; Eaton, Bst 71b; Prevention, Bst 31b; Larnbton, Bst 7lb ; or Exact, Bst 31b; and the Maid of Golborne, 'Bst 31b. Belltinker has paid forfeit.. The result will probably show PLACID and PREVENTION in the two first places; Osbome's stetter well up. There has been comparatively little betting on the Not tingham events, Goldfinder having spoilt speculation for the Nottinghamshire Handicap, and Candlewick having done a like action for the Chesterfield Handicap. The latest prices rule as follows :—Robinhood Stakes-6 to 4 agst Lanabton, 2to 1 agst Exact.

READLNG , TUESDAY NIGUT. The returns from the eight polliag districts in this county have been received by the central committee at the Great Western Hotel. The following is the final state of the Mr Vansittart ' „,. 1,737 Mr. Palmer ... 1,703 Lord Barrington ... 1,637 Mr. Walt er 135 The votes reco r d e d on b e h a lf of Mr. Walter cannot be taken as a test of the - strength of the Free-trade party in this county, as a large number of electors refrained from re cording their votes owing to the demand for a poll having been withdrawn by Mr. Walter's friends on account of that gentleman's name having been proposed to the constituency -without his knowledge or approval, and at so late an hour as nut to afford a fair opportunity of contesting the county on the great question at issue. The official declaration will be made by the Under-Sheriff, at Abingdon, on Thursday morning, The contest, we hear, has been carried on with much ex citsment at Newbury, and, in the affrays that have occurred, the polling-booths have been attacked and. the Sheeiff deputy injured by a set of ruffians. The timely interposi tion of the local police prevented any serious mischief being perpetrated. BUCKINGHAMSHIRE. SECOND DAY'S POLL. The poll yesterday, possessed little excitement, and compa ratively few of the freeholders came up to register them selves. The close of the poll showed the following results :4-- • Dupre '... -• 1,999 Disraeli • ' - 1,968 ' Cavendish ... ... 1,403 Lee 656 The number of electors on the register is. 5,000 0r.6,000, and it will be seen how few have voted. At four o'clock Dr. LEE addressed a large assembly On the Karket-hill, and complained bitterly that the Whigs of Cavendish had coalesced with the Disraeli and Du Pre Con servatives to overthrow him. He also stated that his own friends had polled for Mr. Cavendish as well as himself. If so, plumping for Lee would have left Cavendish in a sorry figure on the poll. Mr. Disraeli is expected to dine at the George to-night, if he can get here in time, after attending the Cabinet Council of to-day. The poll will be officially declared before the end of the week in the County. Hall. IRELAND. THE ELECTIONS. . , . DUBLIN, TuEsDAY.—The battles for the counties, although a great little more than fairly begun, have already produ ced . some unlooked-for results . In the county of Cork ( t he " Irish Yorkshire") the tWo Conservatives, after mak ingthus show of fight, retreated at the last ' hoar , giving the two late Liberal Membersluiet fro the of their seats. But a far more decisive victory for the . principle of free trade has been aohieVed in the highly aristocratic Queen's county. The candidates were Sir Charles Coote, Protection ist; the Right Hon. John. Wilson Fitzpatrick, a Whig, but one of the "fair trial" (D e rby) class, and at all ti mes, and in all seasons, an opponent of t h e policy of 184 i ; t h e third was Mr. Michael Dunne, of Ballymenas, of w h om very little indeed was known, beyond t h e fact that he belonged t o th e class of " gentlemen farmers —a plain, shr ew d , c l ear-headed man, a warm friend of free trade, tenant r i g h t, & c. Al though supported by the undivided influence of the priest hood, it was scarcely ' deemed possible that he would do more than come to a poll, for of his ultimate defeat no one entertained . the shadow of a doubt. Great, then, must have been the consternation of the Ministerial party when the day of nom i nat i on arr i ved, to find that Mr. Fitzpatrick, apparently panic-stricken, had abandoned his pretensions, and permitted " Farmer" Dunne to be quietly elected as the colleague of the lordly proprietor of Ballyfinn. The announcement of this singular coup was hardly credited in Dublin yesterday evening. T wo other con tests appear to be v i rtua ll y decided, but un til they are completed it is unnecessary to refer to them. coo- The contest for Westmeath, it will be perceived, i"John fined to three candidates, another of the claimants (M c !'_,. un ,..
