Another week will bring to a close the different contests still remaining to be decided in the three kingdoms. Already the majority of the elections have been brought to a conc l u sion, and already, therefore, we are enabled to estimate with some degree of accuracy the relative strength of parties in the new Parliament. From the analysis made by ourselves from day to day, it will have been perceived that hi.therto the advantage remains altogether with th e Opposition. Under any circumstances, after the boasts indulged in by the Protectionists, this could not have been otherwise, to those who regarded their assertions with credulity, than matter for astonish ment. Everything considered, however, in the situation of affairs immediately prior to the dissolution, this feeling of surprise cannot but be enhanced. For it must be borne in recollection that the Tories possessed the extraordinary advantage of going to the count].) afe the men in power—a circumstance always in the highest degree favourable to whoever may happen at such a crisi s to hold the reins of government. let with this prestig e o f th eir p lea d - Ministerial elevation log to. the electors throughout the country strong l y in their favour, D crbyit es have failed to secure a memb er o f seats in the by the Lib eral and Liber al - Conservative degree comparable to those filled Conservati ve can did a tes,or, in. oth er words, by the acknowledged candidates of the Opposition. Whatever may . be the result of the b p e e n m d a i n d g e n e tt e s e t a il n i no l difference sufficieatly re -1 likelihood in the relative strength of the two gre w at ptahreties, so as t o afford an material impr ovement in y jaeta est. Th e result is alre a dy Administration. virtually d 4/ id ea The proportion of Membersin the ec. new Parlia ment may be, almost t o a n i cety, at th is very moment, remaining calculated. The re t urns still to be made might, in many i ns t ances, b e paired, and the residue would be altogether too insignificant to tell with any degree of force upon either the supporters or the opponents of the existing Cabinet. It is obvious, consequently, that Lord DERRY will again Fuld himself in a minority on the re-assembling of the riew House of Commons, as he was before the dissolu- Übe of its predecessor. Nay, in all reasonable Probability, that minority will be found on its ultimate examination to be yet more d e . tv v inlehera to the energies of the Administration. b the people will find it difficult to lose a remern -I'exe of the fact that, before the close of th e lest suar'l", the conduct pursued towards the Ministry as that, practically speaking, of the most lenient description. At the outset,. it is true, a certain por tion of the ° Pl 3 eisiLlen manifested a willingness to act towards the DERRy Government with what we boldly at the time designated a factious and therefore unjustifiable hostility. Deterred, however, from' pursuing this course, either by second thoughts," or by conceding to the o f t h e justiceindignation aroused outside the walls of the petulant cluster of legislators here referre d to resolved on reflection upon Abandoning the policy upon which they had ungenerously adventured. I Everyone, indeed, after that strove to smooth the 'path before the Administrators, so as to enable them, as readily as possible, to carry on the affairs of the Government. It was felt, even by their most reso lute antagonists, that such was the only ho , nourable course open to them at the time, aware as they were that the Cabinet had sprung into existence from an emergency in the very death-throes of a Parliament. 'The difficulties surrounding Ministers were felt consequently to be more than usually enormous, and it was understood also that the number of those difficulties was very appreciably multiplied by the circumstance of a new Administration being formed immediately before the dissolution of an old Parliament. The Opposition understood this after a little show of hostility, and thereupon magnanimously consented to forego the delightful temptations of antagonism. Actually—the Opposition was no opposition —it was rather a support and an incentive. The moneys re quisite for the carrying on the labours of administra tion were voted with unexampled rapidity, and in some instances with unhesitating munificence. Mea sures were hastened with a pleasant facility through their various stages. The Secretaries of State were none of them embarrassed by a perpetual discharge of queries calculated to irritate them in their respective departments. The divisions were as frequently as possible in favour of the wishes of the Administration. Such, however, cannot be the course anticipated by the leaders of the Cabinet upon• the assembling of the new Parliament. Then, at least, there will re main no excuse for the further postponement of the legislative struggle for principles. Then, at least, the Opposition will vindicate its right to the appel- lation. Immediately upon the commencement of the brief session which will inaugurate the New House of Commons before the winter sets in, the Opposition ranks will increase in strength with each other upon one of those great questions, in regard to which their opinions are diametrically opposed. The Cabinet will then be reduced to the necessity of formally aban doning the interests of the Protectionists. It must then be decided whether the country will consent to witness the retention of power by statesmen who discard in this flagrant manner the very principles which have elevated them to the supreme offices of Government. Whatever differences of opinion may exist as to the Ministerial or Opposition gains or losses during the present election, there can be no doubt that the railway interest has not only fully maintained its position, but even acquired great additional strength, so far as the existing returns are concerned. The electors of Kendal have again secured the efficient services of the respected Chairman of the London and North-Western Company. The business habits, zeal, and industry of the Hon. Gentleman would be sadly missed in the House of Commons, bad the constituency with whom he had been connected so far disregarded his merits as to have chosen another in his place. So far, however, was this from being the case, that there was no opposition offered to his re-election, no encouragement was afforded to any rival candidate; and, notwithstanding the unfortunate indisposition of the Hon. Gentleman, which prevented him from can vassing the constituency, or even appearing on the hustings, he was freely elected, without expenses trouble, or annoyance. All honour to the men of Kendal, who afforded so creditable a proof of grati tude to a worthy representative. The Chairman of the Eastern Counties, too, although retiring from the borough which he formerly repre sented, has been returned for Harwich to the new Parliament. We cannot be supposed to sympathise with the political opinions of Mr. WADDINGTON, who is a thoroughgoing Ministerialist, but he has un questionably been a very hardworking and efficient chairman of the Eastern Counties Company, and the great improvement in the value of its stock since it came under his management affords the best possible evidence of the value of his services. The electors of Salisbury have once more returned the Chairman of the South-Western Railway. The connexion, which has existed for more than five years, bas been continued for a further term. Mr. CHAPLIN has ever proved himself to be a staunch and uncompromising Liberal, the supporter of every measure of judicious reform. It is, however, to his railway capacity only that we are referring on the present occasion, and we are indeed delighted to find that one in every respect so competent to maintain and advance a great, perhaps the greatest, branch of industrial enterprise, keeps possession of the seat which he has worthily occupied du►ing the preceding Parliament. Tae Chairman of the Great Northern Railway will, we believe, have a walk over for the West Ridi ng o f y o ekahire, and the Deputy. Cbairman of the Great 'Western will, we believe, be equally fortunate for Berkshire. We thus find, that four chairmen and one deffuty-chairman of the great trunk lines, having metropolitan termini, have been returned to the new Parliament, and in several instances without opposition. It may, however, be said, that these were only re•elections, and that no additional power has been acquired, parties only, remaining in statuo quo, so far as the Hon. Gentlemen are c oncerned. The Sandwich ele ction has, however, added a tower of strength to the railway party. The Chair man of the South -Eastern Railway, the grand and nearest route to th e Continent, has been re turned under the most cheering and satisfactory term s . W e h ave so often borne testimony to the indefatigable exertions o f the Hon. Gentleman—ex ertions, t oo , as judicious as they are incessant—that it is unnecessary to say how cordially we congratu late the s h are h o ld e rs of the South - Eastern Company, as well as a ll pers ons interested in railway property throughout the entire kingdom, on the pleasing fact that these exertions will now be available in an en larged sphere, and that Mr. MACGREGOR will be e. bas d to sust a i n in the Senate the good cause which he bas hitherto so ably supported, although with more limited po wers. The h aix great trunk lines terminating in the me tropolis , will thus be represented in the Legislature by means of the of Yorkshire, and the Sandwich, the city . Salisbury, and West Riding acquired an European? Again, we find sA e u eounty of Berks. MORTON PETO, who has majority for the city of Norwich, returned by a large apparent of othrwich, although opposed by the heir rights." We never entertainede " Hero of a hundred to the result of this contest. I na slightest doubt as been a national cal am ity if Would, indeed, have b ee n rejected, and precluded ltr.

In Mr. el .... E4c , too, the electors of Coventry have sent an active co : PSTO, while Honiton and Whitb y adjutor to Mr. recognised the engineering abilities of Messrs. have HENSON. There are many others LOOSE and STEP whom we might readily refer to. The selection we have made will, however, suffice to show that while men o f t h e gre atest power in p a rty politics, who I I " , devoted themselves to l e g islative labours, may "ave'eause to deplore the fickl eness of constituencies, others, w h o bare attended to developing the traffic of the country Who have assisted in affording increased facilities for inte been more rcornmunica ' tion—hava fairly dealt with. there It must not be forgotten that is nearly 250,000, 000 1. sterling embarked in the un dertakings of which the gentlemen above referred to have been among the most z a Ip ro moters, and that railways are still 0119 fiirly tax e d.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. We read in the Moniteur—" The Superior Council of Public Instruction assembled yesterday (Monday) under the presidency of the Minister. The session, which is to last a month, will be principally devoted to drawing up the programmes of instructions in letters and sciences in the Lycees, on the bases fixed by the decree of 10th April last on the plan of studies. A mixed commission 'composed of delegates of the Ministers of War, Finance, and Marine, and repre senting the Polytechnic, St. Cyr, Forest, and Naval Schools prepared a month since, in conjunction with the Inspectors- General of Public Instruction, the pro grammes of the scientific part of instruction. This commission has shown, by the direction and result o f its labours, the liberal and literary spirit which now animates men who are the most deeply impressed with the importance of positive and practical studies. The Ministerial circular of the 22d May had already pointed out the true spirit of the decree of 10th April. The speedy publication of the programmes will show that the Superior Council and Minister, as the faithful interpreters of the ideas of the PRINCE PRE SIDENT, are not less anxious to preserve in the public schools wholesome literary traditions than to intro• duce into them such changes as are called for by our social state." The article which we mentioned as having appeared in the Journal de s _M _Mats on the r ecen t e l ec tions in England contains some admirable remarks.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at from 5,000 to 6,000 bales'. of , Which 1,500 Per nam and Maranham were taken on speculation. The sales comprised 1,500 Pernam and Maranham at 7/d., 290 Egyptian at 6id. to Bd., and 50 0 Surat at 3 id. to 44d. per lb. The market was tame, and closed with prices . in fav our o f b uyers .—ln Railway Shares a fair buemess was done at higher prices. The following is a statement upon the Indigo sales by Messrs. Jewesbury and Co.:— " The quarterly sale of Indigo commenced this day, consisting of 20,446 chests, including 3,901 chests of old goods bought in at or withdrawn from former sales, and 2,322 cheats in second hands. The qualities of Bengal are about one-third good and fine, and two-thirds mid dling and ordinary ; the Madras one-third good with a few fine, and two-thirds middling and ordinary ; the Kurpah about half good and fine, and the remainder middling and ordinary; the Bimlapatare good. Before the sale commenced, 677 cheats were announced as withdrawn, after which the sale opened with a parcel of defective Bengal, which sold with moderate animation at May rates to 3d. per lb. discount; a small parcel of consumers sold at fatly previous rates, as also did the fine mark of J. and It. W., which followed; subsequently consuming qua lities went easier, and may be quoted as above par to 3d. lower. Importers were willing sellers, and it is pretty evident that unless the next mail (now daily expected) shall bring confirmed accounts of damage sustained by the you ng plant, prices will scarcely be maintained. -The room p res ented a good attenda n ce, chiefly, bow ever, of fureign buyers; the home trade being at present but sparingly represented. 4,062 chests have passed to day, of which 430 were bought in, and 632 sold. The following are the highest and lowest prices:-1,062 chests Be ngal, 2s. 2d, to 6s. 2d. per lb." The telegraph with the outline of the East Indian news jUstifies the hope of better commercial transac tions 'rem Calcutta, business being stated to be brisker on the 3d ult. The exchange on London was 2s. o'd. Prom England a good amount of silver is being again shipped to the East just now. At Amsterdam on the 2d inst. Dutch Stock was in m ore demand. The Two-and-a-Half p er Cents . realised 63 11.16. In Foreign Securities there was i nothi ng re,mportant, but Spanish were buoyant. The Proprietors of the Union Bank of London have held their meeting this morning. and received the an nual report of the directors. This states that, although the ordinary profits of banking have been materially diminished by the u nprecedented depression in the value of money, that deficiency has been fully counterbalanced by the extension of t h e 'bu s iness in every department d uring the past financial year. After payment of all ex. penses, and a sum exceeding 30,0001. no customers for in terest on their current and deposit accounts, a net profit has ,been made of 38,17 ll 195., out of which sum the directors now declar e is dividend of 7 per cent. (clear of income tax) amounting to 29,603 1 ., and app l y 5004 as usual in reduction of the preliminary expenses; leaving an un appropriated balance to be carried to profit and loss New Account of 8,068/. 19s. The balance-sheet gives the paid-up capital at 422,9001.; due by t he 13ank on current accounts, de- Posit receipts, (including interest accrued), cir cular notes, &c., 4,268.438/, ; and Reserve Fund invested in Bunk Stock, 50,0001. The creditor side shows 4,646,5501. cash in the Bank, in the sank o f England, loans, Exchequer-bills, and other Government securities, bills discounted, &e. This is sltogether a very large amount of business. The English Funds have been very steady, but not brisk ; speculation is inactive, but the purchases by the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt, on account of life annuities grant e d, will no doubt be continued at intervals, and Private capitalists must make investments.

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY Although the show of English Wheat here tto•day was very limited, the demand for that description of produce ruled heavy, at prices barely equal to those of Monday, and several parcels fresh up remained over for Friday. There was scarcely any inquiry for Foreig❑ Wheats, but we have no further decline to notice in the quotations. The supply on offer was by no means extensive, and the arrivals, this week, are 6,870 quarters. Floating cargoes of Wheat and Indian Corn were much neglected, though offered on somewhat easier terms. The sale for Barley was heavy, and low foreign qualities were the turn cheaper. We had a very dull inquiry for Malt, at barely late figures. The Oat trade was in a depressed state, at Monday's decline in the currencies. Beans, Peas, and Flour were quite neglected. Flour Sachs 780 900 10,780 [16,080 bls ARRIVALS THIS WEER. Wheat. Barley.

SEC ----- ONDARIES(THL.. DAY.) ,„, kuefore Mr. Secondary POTTER.) DWISIAN V. WRIGHT. This was an action to recover 121. 2s. 6d. for surgical attendance and medicines. The plaintiff is a physician of the Edinburgh College, and a member of the College of Surgeons.

This paragon of tratatres closes this evening, after a brilliantly successful season, distinguished for the production of the most attractive novelties, in which nothing that taste and talent, liberality and in dustry could eff ct, was left unachieved. No one who has seen it can easily forget the magnificent splen dour and completeness of King John, with Mr. Keares noble personation of the moody tyrant, and the Con stance of Mrs. Kean, than which the stage has never be held a more genuine triumph of the tragic actress; whilst the Hubert of Mr. Ryder, universaliy all owe d to be ono of t h e ver y best pieces of acting that has grati fied the lovers of the Shaksperian drama, won additional laurelsfor theory that sound and finished artist, w h o i s at home alike is the and practice of his profession. The most extraordinary hit of the season, and one of the most extraordinary theatrical hits on record, has been unquestionably the melodrama of the Corsican Brothers, which ran some seventy nights since its production in February without any diminution of attraction. As we presume every one has seen it, there is no use dwelling again on its singular fascinations; suffice it to say that kr. Kean gave an individuality to his role that no other actor we could name on the stage could impart, and that Mr. Wigan has appeared in no part in which his very high talent has been more appreciated than in that of the libertine duellist, Chateau Renaud. There never has been produced a melodramatic play so exciting and enthralling as the Corsican Brothers. Then we have had the fairy tale Wittekind and his Brothers, with its beau tiful scenic effects—chief of all, the exquisitely picturesque• tableau of the flight of the fair Melusine, borne by the friendly swans through the airy regions to Marchenland. Mr. Lovell's pleasing comedy The Trial ej Love was stamped with unanimous and sustained approbation; and in that fantastic phantasm, The Vam pire, Mr. Bourcicault not alone displayed his auctorial skill, but by his performance proved that he is com petent to embody dramatic parts, as well as to create or adapt them. In Witteki n d an d The Vampire, Leclercq in characters were sustained by Miss Carlotta and value to a style signally evincing her ge ners_l e u r tilty cultivated the establishment, not only from but highly from a very and effective choregraphic taleeritets the principal female excellence. Animated de cided development of brilliant and graceful, and on either coarseness or Miss Leclercq never ha v t we have seen this favourite correct in her personations, affectation; undertake on his d trlO the boards of in pantomime or otherwise, and the Princess's, whether fascinating a nd ell artistet display of ' and consequently all the more telling, pure taste of has so invariably been marked by an unobtrusive, deportment, that we truly wish, for and harmo n y t he sake of theatrical interests generally, that every manager in, town could possess her equal i n hi s troupe if but as a pattern for aspirants to that artistic execution by means of which she has justly attain e d to an esta blished and increasing appreciation. Mis s R obertson —.as is i likewise deserving of laudatory mention. Always pleasing and pretty, she has recently exhibited a pointed improvement in her acting which has greatly ad vanced her in public estimation. To eulogise Mr. Harley or Mr. Meadows were but to gild refined gold; and to commend Mr. Addison for his incomparable old men, and Mi ss M arsha ll for the saucy" characters, of which'she is so clever a represen tative, but to echo th e general voice. The habitués o f t h e Princess's will sen s ibl y f eel the loss of Mr. Wi ga n, and we understand that " t h e i nimitable " Flexmore re t urn s no more. If this b e so, i t will be somewhat diffi cu lt to find an adequ a t e su b st i tute for so popular a favour i te at this house as the first of _ panto m imic buffos has been for several seasons. we look forw ar d w i th a pleas i ng Grateful for the p as t , an d con fident for the future , anxiety to the re appearance o f M r. and Mrs. Ch ar les Kean, like giants refreshed, in September next, environed by their brilliant and highly-disciplined cohorts. And so, for a brief season, we bid them very heartily farewell.

The spleedid ete Claimpetre, which commenced on Monday, in the extensive and delight{ ul pleasure gardens of Cremorne—for the benefit of that noble Institution, the .Lcenst.d Victuallers' Asylum—wes continued ester day with an unusual degree of eclat. The weather was all that the lovers of al fresco enjoyments could desire, bright and beeutiful, while the company was as numerous and as brilliant as that wi4chrshonoured this festival with their presence on the preceding day. The gardens themselves, with, their delightful walks, shaded over by the rich, foliage of the over-hanging trees—the Hebe and other sowing fountains•the Castle of Ondiee—the improved balloon ground, studded with statuary and vases, clothed at their bases with beautiful flowers—present attractions of •no ordinary character tn all who love to luxuriate in the "sweetness of the air and the pleasant situation," which an old writer declares are to bo found in that portion .of ..the neighbourhood of Chelsea in which Cremorne is situated. The spirited proprietor of the gar dens (Mr. T. B. Simpson) has not limited the enjoyment of the public to these rural delights. His catering extends beyond mere sylvan scenery, shady bowers, and the like, and, accordingly, we have enter tainments arranged for almost every half hour, from four o'clock in the evening until el e v en , wh e n ail terminate with a grand diplay. of fireworks, Amongst the entertainments are the surprising evolutions of the contortionist, Master Rochez, which are followed by the acts of Professor Taylor and his double-sightte son. Then follows Volaete's performances on tfie rope ' with Rochez and his comical dogs, after which Mr. 4lacney, the negro clown, astonishes the audience with his- wonderful performances on the violin asd other instruments, &c. .D,vani, the celebrated Ouraug Outang Contortionist, next goes through some cxtrir ordinary movements, which would go to prove that he had not a bone in his body; and at six o'clock diese several entertainments are wound up by a grape vocal and instrumental concert, which takes place in the Pagoda. After a lapse of an hour a troupe of Ethio pian Harmonists gave a chars cteristic concert. Thew follows a grand ballet in the theatre, entitled Azuriffe- Atter which, at half-past eight o'clock, the newly de corated Pavilion is thrown open, and M.
