Already the results of the General Election may be thus summarised-559 members returned up to the clos .1 of yesterday's polling : of these 315 Libe rals as opposed to 214 Conservatives, showing a clear majority (so far) of 131 on the side of the Opposi tion. The gains to Mr. GLA➢STONE+ are in excess of those secured to Mr. DISRAELI on the New Slats by 14, on the Old Seats by 16—the Conservatives having won 39 from the Liberals on the latter, against a loss of 55 to their antagonists—Minister; again, hav ing won 13 of the New Seats against 27 secured to the Opposition. Striking the balance between the rival parties, so far as the numbers have yet been obtained, those relative gains and losses on the new and the old seats together, show an advantage of exactly 40 in excess on the side of the Liberals. It is impossible, however, even now to conjecture with any degree of confidence the precise magnitude of the majority which will have been secured to the Leader of the Opposition when the Elections shall have been completed. It can only be conjec tured proximately, and even then with very consi derable hesitation. But so forecasting—thatjs, with hesitation, certainly without confidence as to the ac curacy of our purely conjectural calculations—we should feel disposed to regard the Libe ral majority as likely to amount to a little over a clear hundred. Supposing that estimate to be well founded, it would imply the reduction of the present majority by some thirty or there abouts, through the county returns which have yet to drop in. I et, even when so reduced, the final result would show an increase of the Liberal majority in the next as compare] with the last Parliament by some thirty votes altogether ! Au expansion of the Liberal majority of over seventy is the old House of Commons, to one exceeding a round hundred in the new House of Commons ! Whether the final issue will or will not be precisely what we are here imagining there can be no possibility of doubt that the majority at Mr. GLADSTONE'S back will be very formidable to the Government. It will be unquestionably (and very appreciably) larger than it was before the dissolution. TIM SUN, LONDON, 'I UESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 24, 1868. What Mr. GLADSTONE will do with it? will then be the question. Or, rather, the first consideration just now is—what his wily chief :antagonist, the present Prime Minister, will afford him the opportunity of doing with it ? It is even a moot question as to whe ther Mr. DISRAELI might not just possibly contrive to deny Mr. GLADSTONE, during this brief winter session, any opportunity at all for bringing their rival claims for the Premiership—for the retention or the acquisi tion of the Premiership—into collision. All will de pend, of course, upon the structure—upon the wording—of the QUEEN'S Speech on the opening of the New Parliament. The paragraph in that Speech having especial reference to Ireland above all, the particular section of that paragraph having re ference to the position of the Le,gislature and of the Government in relation to the urgent and imminent problem of the Irish Church with a view to its solu tion, will be the one point in the Speech from the Throne upon which everything will turn—upon which at any rate will clep,ml the alternative of An Amendment or of No Amendment being proposed. The Court Circular has just now announced the arrival of the Prime Minister at Windsor Castle on a visit to his SOVEREIGN. As a matter of course, with the General Election so near its close, and with the meeting of the New Parliament within view at the end of little more than a fortnight from the pre sent moment, the purport of the QUEEN'S Speech will, in all human likelihood, or (we should rather say perhaps) for an absolute cer tainty, be matter for consideration together, for discussion together, now, at once, between the first Minister of the Crown and his Royal Mistress. Upon it, that is upon that Speech from the Throne, we repeat everything is just now dependent. And matters are so intimately and so inextricably bound up just now with the one dominant question of the Irish Church, that rumours of the wildest kind are bruited abroad, rumours of the most extra ordinary character in reference, now to the Head of the Government, now to the Lea der of the Oppo sition, now to the SOVEREIGN herself. According to one rumour, Mr. DISRAELI is either meditating the taking of the wind out of the sails of his an tagonht by dealing vigorously with the Land Question as it affects Ireland, or by dealing with the question of the Irish Church somewhat after the manner in which he dealt the session before last with the then dominant question of Parlia mentary Reform. According to another rumour Mr. GLADSTONE is now resolutely proposing to him self to swamp the House of Lords (as Earl GREY talked of doing a whole generation back) by the crea tion of some fifty new peers all at once : this, of course, with a view to the carrying of his projected measure of disestablishment and disendowment through the Upper House in the very teeth of the Conservatives. A third rumour states—one while in regard to her MAJESTY, that in the event of her MAJESTY receiving the resignation of her present ad visers, Lord GRANVILLE will be sent for instead of Mr. GLADSTONE—another while, that so insuper able is her MAJESTY'S objection to becoming a party her self to the destruction of that Irish Church Establish ment which she, as anointed QUEEN, solemnly pledged her royal word she would maintain intact when taking the memorable oath on the day of her coronation, that rather than break that oath her MAJESTY is resolved upon avoiding any possibility of coming into colli sion with her people by immediately abdicating. The mere circumstance of extraordinary rumours like these being rife at this moment, not only here at home, but abroad on the European Continent, is clearly enough indicative of the momentous charac ter of the conjuncture at which we have arrived. Whatever else we may be uncertain of, we may rest perfectly well assurel of this, that the problem of the Irish Church is now upon the eve of its solution. And we may be equally certain, at the same time, that its solution will be effected simply by that Church's dis establishment and disendowment. The guarantee of this is the majority already secured (through the Ge neral Election now drawing rapidly towards its close) to that most recent but moat formidable of all the assailants of the Irish Church, the Leader of the Liberal Opposition. IT has always seemed to us extraordinary that Mr. GLADSTONE, the Liberal leader of 1808, should be reproached with inconsistency because he does not hold the views of Mr. GLADSTONE, the Tory writer of 1838. In these days, when there is scarcely a single prominent statesman who has not altered, it seems to be both absurd and unjust to accuse Mr. GLAD STONE of treachery and divers other political crimes and offences. Remembering that of the two chief Conservative politicians now living, the one began life as a Whig, who harangued a mob from one of the clubs in St. James's-street when the Reform Bill was thrown out, and the other entered the house of Commons as a Radical, the occupation of stone-throwing might well have been avoided by those who live in such " regular crystal palaces." Recent events have rendered this amusement even more perilous. When violent changes are made in the course of a few months, it is folly to denounce changes the result of a life's education, some of them made at the cost of great personal sacrifice ; changes, too, which all consistently tend in one direction. It is quite true that thirty years ago Mr. GLADSTONE wrote a book in defence of the union between Church and State as an abstract principle, though even then he admitted the possi bility that the State might be incapable of carrying it into effect. But it is also true that when, in 1845, his leader proposed a measure which seemed to mili tate against the principle, he, so far from pointing to that proviso as a saving proviso which would allow him to sanction the deviation, left the Government at a time when leaving it seemed to be fatal to his reputation and prospects as a states man. At this very time he had become convinced of the imperfection of his own argument. He might, if he had chosen, have pleaded that he no longer held the same opinions as he .had done six years before. But he would not even seem to be influenced by the love of place. Approving of the policy of his chief, he yet went out of office because he wished that the writer of " The State in its Relations with the Church " might be clear from all appearance of evil. Mr. GLADSTONE'S " Chapter of Autobiography," which we yesterday noticed in the columns of The Sun, chews that the mind of the author has been stea dily educating for thirty years. There is no abrupt conversion at any one period of his history. H e has simply marched forward steadily, generally slightly behind the nation, but in the last and most notable instance a little in the van, as a leader should be. Five years ago he was so dissatisfied with the condition of the Irish Church, that he told his great friend Sir ROUNDELL PALMER he should not be able to restrain the utterance of his opinions. Two years later he partly unfolded those opinions. Yet even then he scarcely expected to be their chief advocate. In 1865 he, having then had a career of thirty years, thought it unlikely that the country would undertake to decide the question now before it during the next ten years, and there fore unlikely that he would be called upon to settle it. lle knew that the first question mustbe Parliamentary Reform. Remembering the many abortive efforts which had been made to effect this change ; remembering the obstinate vis inertia which Parliament opposed to all attempts to alter its constitution, he foresaw years of work in that one question alone. He could not foresee (was there any one who could ?) that the opponents of Reform would deal with it in a far more sweeping way than he was prepared W do, We know the rest, We know that Ireland became, as Lord STANLEY said, the question of the day ; that it became necessary to propound an Irish policy ; that this consisted of maintaining the Irish Church, which Mr. GLADSTONE had five years before seen to be doomed, or of endowing other reli gions which he had thirty years before opposed, and that there was now not onlythe opportunity offered to him, but the necessity laid upon him of announcing the great change which he had seen to be sooner or later inevitable. " The Irish Church must cease to exist as an Establishment." These were the words which he uttered in the spring of this year ; and at once Parliament responded to them. They were the words of deep conviction on the part of the speaker, they expressed the half unconscious belief of the whole country. The party in office declined to accept the verdict of the late Parliament. The party in office, being Conservatives, thought the nation was still moved by the old exclusive feeling which burst forth with such vehemence after the " Papal aggression." Mr. GLADSTONE knew better. The elections have shewn how accurately he understood his fellow-country men. Lefthe contest to which all eyes are directedto day be decided how it may, the issue cannot be altered. Lancashire is strong, as Mr. GLADSTONE said on the hustings last Saturday, but England is stronger ; and with England are joined Wales, Scotland, and Ireland. Lancastrians may eject the Liberal leader from his native county, but his policy has been approved, and Lancashire will have the small satis faction of opposing itself to, instead of co-operating with, the nation. It is not the part we expected of Lancashire, but should that county choose to take it, it will have no one to blame but itself for having to stand aside from the great political drama about to be acted. LATEST INTELL MENGE (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) SPAIN. MADRID, Nov. 23, Evening. Two grand demonstrations took place at Barce lona yesterday ; one in favour of a Constitutional monarchy, and the other having a Republican ten dency. About 25,000 joined the former and 9,000 the latter. When the two processions met each other on the road they shouted, " Long live liberty !" and " Long live fraternity !" The Repub licans declared that they would regard every one as a traitor to the country, who should cause dis turbances, and expressed their intention of respect ing the future decision of the Constituent Cortes relative to the future form of Government. The admirable order, and the whole attitude of yester day's manifestations, has made a most favourable impression. It is rumoured that the monopoly of exchange and commercial brokers will be abolished. It is reported from Malaga that manifestations in favour of a monarchical form of government and others in favour of a republic are being prepared to take place next Sunday.

WILIIERNSEA, NEAR HULL, Nov. 42. The smack Mary, of Hull, whilst making for the Humber with a cargo of fish, ran on shore on this coast, about a mile and a quarter to the south of Wilhernsea, yesterday, says C. G. Clarke, Esq. As soon as the intelligence reached here the life boat Pelican, of the National Lifeboat Institution, was launched and proceeded to the spot. The crew of the stranded vessel were very anxious for the aid of the lifeboat, a 3 they felt they were in imminent danger, for in attempting to launch their own boat, with a boy and their clothes on board, the boat was immediately swamped, the boy, however, being fortunately rescued. The five hands on board the smack were then brought safely ashore in the life boat. YOUGHAL, IRELAND, Nov. 23.

Tae (ItTARTEIMY, No. 250.—" The Public Ques tions at Issue" is au article that attracts attention, as it refers to the state of affairs in c)nnection with the new Reform Bill. The great "Democratic Re action," as it is called, has been tested and failed to produce the startling effects that were predicted. It is here said that the " New lion e of Com mons will be cornpoied of very much the same material as of old," and the results of the elections, so far as they have yet gone, hive fully justified the predictions thus made, and contradicted the assertions of the disciples of the advanced party. There is a good deal of truth in the remarks here made as to the effect of the recent changes in the constitution. With one thing and another it is argued the Liberals, as a party, will not have gained, and that within their ranks so many other sections are forming that they must detract from the influence of the old leaders. A requiem is sung over the " old Whigs," who have had to make a virtue of necessity by abdicating in favour of those in whose favour their party had already declared. Some criticisims are passed on Mr. Gladstone, and he is assured that he will have no easy task when he cornea into power ; allowing for the sake of argument that such should be the result of his struggles. The fuss which the Radicals make about the working man is here commented on, and most truly is it observed that little or nothing appears in their programme that the real Conservative need object to. As to their being the friends of the working man, it is emphatically denied. " Did they pass the Factory Bill ?" is significantly asked. The meddling and muddling policy of the Whigs, with respect to "expenditure," is also considered, and the conclusion arrived at is that the OPPe" sition leader will be worsted in his deep& rate effort to regain office by any means he can resort to, no matter how startling may be the changes he is: constrained to adopt. "The Grea t Railway Monopoly" is a subject most appropriat e just now, when we are so bewildered by conflicting claims ; and the concluding passage is very for' cibly written. Private interests had to give way to public good when railways were first authorised , and now, after 40 years, private feelings must again be sacrificed if they are found incompatible wit h public advantages, ouch as cheap locomotion and proper accommodation to travellers. Some other articles of interest are here met with, among which may be mentioned, as particularly worthy of :no tice, those having reference to Matthew Arnold's Report on French Education, and to Lady Mint° ' 4 Memoir of the Right Hon. Hugh Elliott. THE DUBLIN REVIEW. New Series. No. 22. Burns, Oates, & Co.—ln the current number of th 3 Dublin we find, as usual, an admixture of theolo gical, literary, and general articles. Among th e latter is an essay upon the State Papers relating to Ireland, recently published under the authority O f the Master of the Rolls. It is remarked that th e two collections of historical records, of which he commenced the publication in 1853 and 1853 re spectively, will already bear comparison, if not it/ number, at all events in variety and in value Wit h any similar collections known to our libraries. Th e energy and zeal with which this undertaking, tru l y national in its character, has been carried forw ard are pronounced to be almost without a precedent ill our literary annals, and in point of scholarship th e collection will bear comparisou with the collect i 0 of Guizot, of Muratori, of Pertz, or of Navarrete' Church Music and Church Choirs" aro amp l y discussed, and a brief memoir of St. Paula carrie 3 us back from the turmoil of the nineteenth century to the days of St. Jerome and the Christian house' hold at Bethlehem. There is, as usual, a libera l supply of literary criticisms and notices. THE POPULAR SCIENCE REVIEW. No. 29. Ba rd ' wicke.—This very valuable and well-written quar terly presents us with an interesting title;pag e ' The subjects are calculated to attract the no w. scientific reader a 3 well as the professional student' `‘ The Life of a Seel" must interest all who have watched the wonderful development of the littl e brown or yellow grain which some mysteriPe agency converts into the gorgeous flower. << Iron Shields and F00:8 " is the title of an article Which deals with a very important topic. The particullre given of the recent experiments are full of interest. It is remarked that the most formidable attlek 4 against the shields have been made by Briti 3 h projectiles, which excel all others in penetrative power. But since weapons of a similar class E Ol be brought against us ia future wars, it is well ic ; err upon the safe side and learn how to keep e l % the most powerful missiles extant. What 1 Wine?" is a question asked and answered b y Auguste Dupr6, lecturer on Chemistry in We l!' minster Hospital. An account of the I G v ster by Lieut. G. Mivart, F.L.S., will induce the epicure to look with more attention to the organisil tion of that creature, which is a striking example cl the invertebrate class. THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW. —We have is this number of the London an essay upon " Dlidale Class Education," in which it is remarked that t h° f most important change which has taken place a o late years in the education of the uniddie-class ha been the application of the examination syst e° , o . The remarks on the education of girls at the el ° ' o f the article are full of sense and justice.
