including the Island of Sardinia itself. But why
should England rest Satisfied with- a declaration
of intentions so- indefinite and destitute of pre-
cision? Why this want of distinctness, save to
Jeep open a back door for retreat from the
apparent disavowal ? • Was it not exactly so in
the piracy of Nice and Savoy ? Were not Lords
RUSSELL .apd-PALMERSTON obliged to -confess
that they had • been deceived by similarly
vague and ill-defined assurances ? We shall
have more than enough of. this, if we
are soft enough to submit to it. Let us see to it
then. Let Lord JOHN, RUSSELL see to it. If
our Foreigu.MiniSter.allnw us to be again'hood-
yfinked . until the transacted, what

retribution will not the people of England exact ?
His lordship's, chief anxiety hitherto seems to
have been lest Sardinia should invade Austrian
Italy.
,That bugbear has disappeared. All goes
smoothly again—on the surface, at least. The
game is once more equal ; . and if England's
Foreign Minister will but play his cards well, we
need loSe nothing by*.i;Einit: ,Aire confess we
have the smallest possible confidence in the
pliie*(lo,ss, tact, or energy of Lord J.. RUSSELL,
as a diplomatist. He has now, however, another
grand opportunity of retrieving
.his reputation.
Will he ay ail himself of it ? We shall see.

IMPORTANT TO THE CONSERVATIVE
ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY.

THE Revising Barrister, J. H. PATTESON, Esq.,

has decided that,- all objections made to the
Conservative county voters by Mr. BRUMFITT;
Secretary of the Reform Association, are invalid
and of AO effect. This is a very important decision
in several rejects ; but it is especially necessary
for the Conservative electors whose names have
been objected to by Mr. BRUMFITT to keep in
view that this decision is liable to review by the
Court of -Common Pleas, and may yet be wholly
set aside. It is, therefore, clearly the,imperative
duty of every Conservativetlecter to act as If no
such . clecisfon haa been given. Tip hevising
Barriaier. Itl alrei 'wo'rd's, all who have been
served With objections must still come forward to
the Revision Court and use the proper means to'
prove their right to the vote, as they would
have done had no such decision been given against
Mr. BRUMFITT. A single word will prove the
necessity of this being attended to. Thus, sup-
Posing that any Conservative electors, relying
upon the nullity of Mr. BRIDIFITT'S objection to
their votes, should not appear before the revising
barrister to substantiate their claims, then, in the
event of the court above being of a different
opinion from Mr. PATTESON, the objections
made by Mr. BRUMFITT will be held valid, and
those who have not come forward to vindicate
their rights will be struck off the list for the
Present year, and their vote will not be available
to the cause at the next election, should ittake
Place within that period. We, therefore, earnestly
entreat ;who have been summoned by the Con-
Itititional Association to attend before the Re-
Vi.sing Barrister, not to omit answering that
in order that there may be no doubt as to their
being placed on the list now being Made up. ,

The importance of every 'exertion being used
11 Conservatives, at the present time, to
Strengthen the great party under whose
honourable banner they have hitherto been
enrolled, cannot be over-estiMated. Great pro-
gress has already been made in this loyal and
Patriotic movement, and a little further effort is
all that is required to secure that predominant
position which properly belongs to the great
Liberal-Conservative party. " England expects
that every man this day will do Ms duty."
