The CHANCELLOR of the ExcHEQuER yesterday addressed a numerous body of his supporters on the occasion of a convivial banquet at Newport Pagnell, and in anticipation of the proceedings of to-morrow, when his own name and that of his colleague will be put in nomination as candidates to represent the county of Rockingham in the new Parliament. From the conspicuous position assumed by the Right Hon. Gentleman in the present Government the remarks which fell from his lips became invested with the im portance of a speech declaratory of the views enter tained by the Administration. It will be re membered that his electioneering address to the possessors of the county franchise in Buckinghamshire was generally accepted by the country as a document p ossessing the value of a Cabinet manifesto. His address of yesterday, there fore, must doubtless be considered as of equal signi ficance, the more so as it had the advantage of being spoken instead of written and eepeially considering ' the circumstance that it was delivered in the very height of the general elections, and when consequently a retrospective survey might be taken of the results already known, so as to form something like a rea sonable conjecture as to the probable strength of parties (relatively speaking) on the assembling of the newly-created Legislature. There was much cause for the exultation with which Mr. Dartamia referred to the advantages secured by the Ministerial candidates in such instances as that of the great sea port of Liverpool. No wonder he augured well from the fact of two Derbyites being returned by Dublin the London, and by Belfast the Manchester of Ireland —triumphs to the Ministry scarcely subor dinate to that achieved, as already intimated, at Liver pool ! It was natural, also, that he should:speak in terms of satisfaction of the successes simultaneously secured at places like Dover and Greenwich. Hardly less natural was it that he should remain altogether dumb as to the losses sustained elsewhere by the Government. The reverse of the medal was not to be looked at—the intaglio was rather disagreeable in this instance, and was therefore to be thrust out of the opportunity of examination. Newport was nothing —Stafford was nothing—neither was there anything in the failures of the Ministerialists at Newark, at Maidstone, or at Leeds, any more than there could be at Kidderminster, at Halifax, or at Aylesbury. The pleasant things were to be talked about on the eve of the election for the county of Buckingham. Therefore, we say, the disagreeable were to be eschewed as out of the question, and—in fact— a3 nothing to the purpose. This, we allow, at once was but re...Qori a bl e under the circumstances. A leading member of tlie — Oppciition would have acted in no way differently. It was the course obviously advisable for the occasion. And a con summate tactician like Mr. DISRA.ELI could not be expected by any ill - tim ed candour to mar the in fluence of the golden moment presented-to him both as a candidate for a seat in the House of Commons and as one of the foremost men in the Adminis tration. It was ingeniously remarked by the CHANCELLOR Of the EXCHEQUER, that while many were asking Ministers " Why don't you say what you will do ?" it should be remembered that the Govern ment ought to go to the country not upon details, but upon principles. This remark, we repeat, was ingenious —but while it was ingenious it WB3 by no means satisfactory. Nobody wanted the Cabinet to go to the country upon details. All the people really desired to know was the precise nature of the very principles here alluded to by the Right Hon. Gentleman. We fancy it would be rather difficult to find two men in the United Kingdom capable of agreeing as to the nature of the policy cherished by Lord DERBY'S Administration. The Oracle of D.-?lphos is not more silent than the Ministry has continued to be up to this very moment in regard to the principles implied by the CHANCELLOR of the Ex- CHEQUE R . What they really are, the most imagina tive as well as the most discerning are bewilderedin the attempt to conjecture. All the community can do is to await as patiently as possible the hour of th e ir ultimate revelation. Hith erto our administrators have kept us in the dark as to their intentions; and now one of the chief men in the Govern ment reminds us that it :has been the duty of himself and his colleagues to go to the country not upcn details but upon principles. Precisely. But where are they ? How can w e discover them ? Can they be deemed visible under the glittering haze of these rhetorical generalities ? Is the empire to be ruled not by a policy but by I; he shadow of a policy— not by a party but by the spectre of a party—not by a sober consistency in this preposition or in that, but by the fluctuating splendour of a gorgeoukbut shallow hallucination ? Before the final elections are completed it may be as well to review with as much accuracy as possible the nature of the results already lunown in regard to the new Parliament. To-morrow, besides other county elections in England, the electi on of Buckingham will commence, according to routine, with the nomination. Within two or three days rfterwards the rest of the contests throughout the United Kingdom will have been accomplished. It is advisable, therefore, we cannot but think, to cast a glance back at the " facts and figures" collected together in reference to those contests which have been up to this time actually completed. Already, then, 280 constituencies have pronounced upon the momentous question submitted to their judgment by the SOTE.• REIGN. These 280 constituencies have elected 451 representatives. These 451 representatives must be divided as follows : Liberals •• . • Derbyites • • • • Liberal Conservatives • • 230 165 56 Total ..• ... 451 Grouping together the Liberals and the Liberal Conservatives, we have the aggregate of— The 0 , )sition ... ••• 286 •• 1 - 1 - 1 • • 1 ••• 2 ••• 1 ••• 1 •-•• THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY Dover ... . . . . . . • • 1 Drogheda . . ... . . • • 1 Dublin ... . . • 4 • • • • 1 Greenwich . . . . • • 1 Harwich ... • • . . . . • • 1 Lincoln ... .. . . • • 1 Liverpool ... • . • . ...• • 2 Ludlow •.• . . . 1 . .

Our cor respondent does not overrate the deep interest we feel in e. project which, if adopted, would prove so emi nently beneficial to a numerous and meritorious body. It is, as we have already stated, only surprising that something of the kind has not already been brought into operation. But when we consider the extreme difficulty of procuring general concurrence in any proposition, however judicious and well devised, our astonishment ceases, and we can congratulate the salaried railway employes, the parties chiefly inte rested on th e remova l o f many i mpe di me nts that formerly obstructed a sati s f ac t ory arrangement,onthe consequent pr os p e ct o f a spee dy s olution of the problem. The dir ec t o r s o f th e different companiest have, with a wi s e a n d j u di c i ous liberality, ag reed . bear a moiety of the expense o f c arrying the plan into execution, only execution, thus rendering it far more advantag eousto the subscribers than any hitherto known. o will they receive the entire benefit of their payments, but every shilling will be practi cally doubled. This is, indeed, an _ to a provident care for the future which has not often been paralleled, and which should elicit the cordial thanks and gratitude of th e officials, and lead to their unanimous adhesion to the sc h e me which has been promulgated. Our respected corresp on d en t, while re cording his unqualified approval o f the project, with one excep tion, urges the propriety of an alteration, or modifi cation, of the clause, which he deems It is to the si x th ru l e that he takes exception, via., that, "In th e event of a subscr ib e r resigning his any rea son short of situation, or bei ng di sm i sse d , f or objectionable. fraudulent dealing, h e s h a ll rec eive back the whole of his :c on t r ib ut i ons, w i thou t interest ; but in the event of his dying before receiving the super annuation all owance, hi s paymen t s will be forfeited to the fund." Th ese points, we believe , are those which have exc i ted the most ser ious differences and elicited th e greatest discuss i on . Both topics have received close and attentive c onsideration, and been much canvassed not only by the provisional com mittee, but all p ersons i n any degree interested in the transaction. If th e p a y men ts were devoted exclu sively to providing a superannuation fund, and that no return whatsoever were made to parties retiring, or being dismissed from the service, the allow ances would n a t ura lly b e l arge r than could otherwise be the case. As the entire fund is applied for the exclusive benefit of the members, any diversion from the primary objects of superannuation must of course diminish it, pro tanto, and render it inadequate for the purpose intended. It would have greatly simplified the calculations if repayments of any kind could be avoided, and if the whole sub scriptions were to be applied to the payment of the deferred annuities. It was, however, essential that some provision should be made for the cases of parties who,,without gross fault on their own parts, were rendered ineligible by resignation or dismissal ; of course the companies could not he expected to pay money on account of persons no longer in their service. It was, however, conceded that the subscriber should be allowed to continue a member by paying the full amount of his subscription, in place of the mo i ety, as was previously the case. But even s ome thi ng more was required. It would be difficult for a person out of employment, and therefore probably, with dimi nished means, to pay an increased subscription ; as actuary, fi na finally to decided, ret return some thing, then, should be given in th e event of such pay mentwith being the ass e impossible, ofth e experienced an d itw the payments made without interest. Complaints would otherwise be made, more especially i n cases of dismissal, where the parties had served out a considerable portion of the time which would have entitled him to a pension. It certainly appears hares to deprive the families of men dying in the service of a similar return of the subscriptions from which they have received no bene fit. There is, however, an obvious distinction be tween the cases. It has never been intended that the fund should make provision for the families of de• ceased officials, or supersede the necessity for life insurance. Its object is to render happy in their old age those who have laboured long and faithfully, a n d who are no longer competent to earn their own sup port. A person who was duly selected as an annuitant could transmit no claim to his representatives in the event of his death, immediately after his superan nuation. That would unquestionably be a hardship, but could it be provided against without completely altering the plan, and requiring a considerable addition to the annual subscriptions? If it were practicable, we should greatly desire to see it carried into effect ; for anything calculated to as sist families when deprived of their protector and supporter should, if possible, be adopted. We would even rejoice to think that life insurance were rendered obligatory on everyman with a family depending on his exertions. But, as we have already stated, to do so would require much larger contributions, and more than railway employes with limited salaries might be willing to pay. We believe, however, that the point is still in some respects under consideration, so far, at least, that when a more accurate knowledge of the working of the system can be attained from the experience of the first seven years, it will be endeavoured to return the amount of subscriptions to the representatives of parties dying in the service. That will probably be the use made of any surplus funds; and we have no doubt that there will be such a surplus, for every judicious actuary leaves a certain margin to prevent the possibility of a deficiency. In the meantim e we have no doubt that arrangements might be made with a respectable assurance company, whereby the full amount of subscriptions would be returned to every man dying within seven or four teen years. A. small payment only would be re quired for this purpose, which would be reduced in proportion to the number of persons entering into the contract. DOINGS OE to state, that one of kind, which will be the TH E will be for the ADmIRALTr.—We are enabled inquire into the agencies very first motions, of a political made on the assembling of the new Par liament,the return of Derbyite candidates esaointment of a Select Committee, to employed by the Admiralty, to insure evo ates at the elections for Chatham, Deptford, Dartmouth, D places.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Constitutionnel has an article on the report t presented os t nu e) t e h pi ,et although Int n h g nof l u i f s go h hr e H i ga o n u sv v s y e is n o t ee f ms Commons no r ud e ; l n a t t i Thevo ef free-trade principles in France, as being likely to in n England reduction so much increase the consumption that the ju d re nc th ti e on pu o b f l t ic ne tr d e n a t s i u e r s y, nn see F m re s n t e o h tl ,v i i n .n k es t i hat a large amount of revenue to the State would be rather in creased than diminished.

The duty on some of these wines i n England amounts to three times its original cost, and acts therefore almost as a prohibition. Good Beaune, for instance, if there were no duty, could be had for sixpence per bottle in England, and Picardan, an excellent substitute for sherry, for about the same price. If, therefore, the duty in England were to be no more than the cost of the wine, the English would have a choice of some ten to fifteen good wines, at a total cost of about one shilling per bottle, and none but the very poorest persons would be unable to drink French wine. The reduction of the duty has long been talked of, but, considering the advantages that it would hold out to this country, the Governments in England have always stipulated for some concessions in favour of iron, coals, or other articles of British produce. Fifteen years ago the Governments of France and England had en tered into serious negotiations for the recipro cal reform of their customs' tariffs, and Sir HENRY BULNTER and Dr. BOWING were appointed as Commissioners of the British Government to discuss with the Commissioners of the French Government the bases of a new commercial treaty. These labours oontinued several months, and were proceeding sa tisfactorily, when they were suddenly broken off by M. THIERS, who was then in the French Cabinet. The only motive assigned for this proceeding was the improbability of inducing the Chamber of Deputies, which at that time was composed in a great measure of monopolists and anti-Free traders, to consent ; but it was, we understand, the opinion of the English Commissioners that, if the Government had been sin cere in its professions, its influence on the Chamber would have sufficed to bring the affair to a satisfac tory result. The obstacles which then existed to a mutual reform of the tariffs of the two countries, with a view to new international advantages, do not exist now. Bou Maze, the Algerine chief, has escaped from Ham. The Courrier du Pas de Calais of the 13th says :—" On Saturday night Bou-Maza, who was detained prisoner in the citadel of Ham, succeeded in effecting his escape. All that is known of the matter is that he took the railway at Montecourt, and that he had with him a miller's man, who used to act as his servant. The only luggage that the fugitives had with them was a trunk and a carpet bag. The news of his escape was immediately transmitted to the various authorities." The Impartial de le ...lleurthe says :—" The Go vernment has just extended to the Protestant minis ters, and the ministers of the different sects paid by the State, the indulgence which is extended to Ca tholic ministers, of being exempt from the oath." It is stated that the President of the Republic was most anxious to be accompanied in his journey to Strasburg by 111. Fould ; but that when the proposi tion was made, the ex-Minister expressed his regret that he was unable to accept the invitation in conse quence of previous arrangements for a visit to the south. The answer did not appear, however, sufficiently deci sive ; and a second intimation is said to have been made on the same subject, but without success, and M. ab This se t out on the journey be had originally ar ranged.whtiheeh con jecture a s t o the probability of M. Fould re-entering th e Cabinet, inet, i o s has given rise to a goo d d ea l o f f prelude.the Others to doubtjoin t the e mPurceh sident w as to be that such a result would have taken place even had M. Would consented, but believe that the attention shown to the ex•Miniater was more apparent than real. A letter from Marseilles of the 10th inst. states that a dreadful storm, accompanied with thunder, light ning, and torrents of rain, fell on Wednesday last on the town of Auriol and the neighbourhood. An un fortunate peasant, who was sitting in his kitchen smoking his pipe, near his wife, who was rocking her infant in a cradle, was killed by the lightning : the woman and child were not hurt. At the country house of Notre Dame, belonging to M. Remusat, two children and their grandmother were severely wounded. A letter from Montauban of the 9th states, that the torrents of rain whi c h f e ll on th e 7 t h inst. caused con ; siderable injury to the canton of Lauzerte. The wheat which was cut in the fertile valley of Baignelonne was all swept away by the overflowing of the river. The poor farmers, who had already suffered severely from the hailstorms, are in a state of desolation. The communes of Denfort, Montagudet, Miramont, and St. Nasaire have likewise suffered severely. A letter from Nyons, in the Drome, of the 10th instant, says, that the communes of St. Maurice and Vinsobres had been ravaged on the afternoon of the rth inst. by a terrific hailstorm. The hailstones, which it is said were as big as walnuts, had com pletely destroyed the wheat which was not yet cut and stripped th e vines of their leaves. A letter from Bergerac of the 10th inst. adds, that such heavy rains as followed the storm of the 7th inst. had not been seen within the memory of man , Three houses were demolished in the village of Monleydier and the materials carried into the Dordogne. Accounts from Auch, in the Gers, state that a fresh disaster bad befallen that department, already cruelly punished in the course of the present year.

They left the North Wall, Dublin, in the City of Dublin Company's paddle steam' vessel Trafalgar, at twenty-five minutes after three o'clock , and arrived at Holyhead at hlpast nine o'clock. The cargo consisted of 266 beasts, the property of R. P. big".' lard, Esq., of Margate Hall, near Norwich. This gentlemail! who bought land largely in the Encumbered Estates Court it year, but principally in the Queen's County, has stocked it very extensively, and he purposes establishing a regula r monthly sale of Irish cattle at ittleborough, in Norfolk. For this purpose he has entered into an arrange.' ment with,the Chester and Holyhead, the London and North' Western, the North Staffordshire, the Midland and t 126 Eastern Counties Companies, by which (as was the case v Friday last) they are to be conveyed " special" by the d several companies. The distance between Holyhead al l , Attleborough is 296 miles. It took 20 hours to complete tR° journey last week, but for the future it will be accomplisile u in about 16 hours. The cattle arrived at their destination in _ excellent condition, having been once " refreshed " with bag and water on the road. Great interest was excited by tn..,, arrival at Holyhead, and as the vessel approached the het . , hour the whole population of the town and of the neighbou' OF r through A RM s. ing villages crowded the arrival platforms and the quay. featA ossfAcUutTin announced as forming part of the programme of h• m 1 old English sports now exhibiting every Wednesday evening', ~.. two whole b n o i l g e h s t b t e h ep e a e t xt o r n a te or ce d u i t n a B v :4 an than usual was the natural consequence of sohibiti a ttractive at French at Saville House, Leicester-square, and an attendance greater announcement.
