party in times not so very cateehisbig and logical as
the present. Bat he entirely mistakes his fitness to
be an expositor of the principles cie practice of any
existing remnant of what was in his young days the
liberal party. He is a high-church Mk of the
deepest dye, and palpably holds Sir CULLING HAND-
LER'S diasenterion in as profound abhorrent:as as does
the Fanyite Morning aorongels itself. Moreover,
t• thie NZ of revolutions, 1848, Mr. Fawns was
depersi~from his electoral dictatorship. 111 health

guide the liberal interest of his county in times like
the present
Whether Mr. FAWKES'S viaiLiWitiLLS as to a
" fusion " of the whig and tory " array " may not
hereafter be realised, a few days will show. But
certainly as yet there are no proofs of that union
of the rival aristocratic forces, on which Mr.
Danisoe's supporters have rested much of their
hopes of success. The muster of country gentle-
men of any motion around Mr. Deems at
the hustings was unusually scanty; more so than
the fact of the day. of nomination being also the first
of the winter moons, could satisfactorily account for.
The leaders of the great whig families are evidently not
prepared to avow coalition with their tory rivals, simply
because the liberal electors grew disgusted with Mr.
CHARLES FITZWILLIAM'S =Lie of soliciting their suf-
frages. Lord Firzw limas himself, being naturally
in an ill-humour, has vented it in an epistolary form;
but no other whig gentleman of influence has come
forward either by speech or writing to give any de-
cided furtherance to the success of Mr. Dezittos.
Mr. Eocene himself does not go further than to fore-
bode • crisis " when the true whip will feel it their
duty to re-appear on the scene of action,* preparatory
totheir "fas'on with theeouservative array." Meantime
it may be inferred that even the whip most disposed
to the fraternization will hold themselves aloof from
any premature surrender of their rights and privi-
leges as a distinctive body. Those who do not support
Sir CULLING EARDLET will in all probability avoid
compromising their party, or committing themselves
by voting at all.
It most not be forgotten, too, that Mr. DV.NISON,
who at the outset bad given as liberal a complexion
to his opinions as was possible for a gentleman in his
position, was gradually compelled to abandon this
neutral ground, and avow his entire adhesion to the
advocates of the statue pea Or, as the 7leses
expresses it, " The line of examination, or
rather of attack, adopted against Mr. Dehisce
at Sheffield, drove him rather unfairly upon
exclusively conservative grounds". Unfortunate it
might be for the came which the nines has at heart;
but we don't precisely see, how it was unfair to make
Mr. Daztem drop the half-mash which he had con-
sented to wear, and avow himself for what he is, a
hearty uncompromising conservative. We are con-
vinced, indeed, that no one is wee rejoiced
than Mr. Demme himself at the abandonment of
the affectations, by which it was supposed that the
discontented and wavering whip would be prevailed
on to give him their support.
The proceedings at Wakefield, on Monday, lively
enough as they were in other respects, were charaa
mired by oneparie:arity, the et edit of which is I
ua eqlly shared both odes. It had been agreed
upon by both from the beginning of the con-
test, that there Maud be no bands or flags paraded
d the election. We wish the candidates for the
West iding bad also set the example of giving up
the use of colours. But not only are the old co-
lours rets but Mr. DENDION has adopted a now
colour (white) for himself and his immediate hind%
while a large section of his supporters mounted the
blue. This may be regarded as a definitive step
on Mr. Dennison's part ; and we presume his exam-
ple will be followed by those who attempt, as he has,
to unite the support of whip and tories m opposition
to all demands for parliamentary or for financial re-
form. Whits—the favourite emblem of old with
&MASTS and BOURBONS, sad ether desperate partit e,
and zealots of forlorn hopes—must henceforward be
looked upon as a third political colour, distinctive of
that new party said to be is process of onisation.

AT the examination at Addieoombe on Friday last,
Sir J. L. LUISHINGTOM, the chairman of the Court of
Directors of the East India Company, made, as is
usual on each occasions, an address to the military
students of that establishment. The gallant chair-
man, after giving them much good advice on other
points, reserved to the last a subject of great practical
" Finally," he very emphatically said,
" IP:ostanct earnestly advise you to be moderate and
temperate in your mode of living, and economical in
your expenditure." Both Sir J. L. LUSHINGTON's
immediate predecessors in the chair of the Court of
Directors had enforced on the students (Sir JAMES
W. Hoag even in stronger language) this neeemity
of " keeping out of debt." And it is not many years
/WOO a Governor. General of India publicly announced
that " no servant of the company's need hope for
advancement who wee in pecuniary diflonities."
The wisdom and propriety of this advice, and of
such a rule in a country in which a crowded
native population is governed by a handful
of Europeans, must be obvious. And hence
it is, very meek, that the rate both of military
and civil pay to the governing clam in India military
high. Pecuniary embarrassments on their part must
at least have a tendency to distract their attention
from the due performance of those duties on which, as
• whale, our empire in India depends; it may also
beget • Iftdessy to corruption, or at all events to the
operation of Magness on the governors adverse to
the happiness of the govmseL No wonder, then,
that the home aathsrities seine the opportunities
Addisoombe affords of reiterating their winless to the
young men leaving Ragland for India on this serious I
snidest.
And at no period in the history of that wondrous
tale which connects England with India, would it
appear, has this annual enforcement of the necessity
of economy on its military students been more need-
fol than at present. Earths later mails from India
have brought over facts on the subject not at all
creditable to the military service of that country—
