THE WEEKLY PRESS.

Though there are good grounds for an appeal

the country, the Examiner doubts much whether ministers
will resort to it. A dissolution, however, before long
there must be, for a conservative ministry could Lot hold
office in the face of an opposition numbering snore than
300. Their allies for the nonce would soon drop off and
resume their places in their former ranks, and there would
be that government on sufferance against the evils of
which Lord Derby, and his son Lord Stanley, have so
vehemently protested. As for a coalition, the Examiner
believes it to be quite out of the question. Nothing, how-
ever, is known and nothing can be known, of the commu-
nications
between her Majesty's ministers and her Ma- I
jesty and their results, till Monday or Tuesday.
The Satarday Review, professing to lament the fate of
the ministry, proceeds to attribute it in a measure
to Mr. Gladstone's unfortunate inventions, and to his
want of skill and conciliation. A deeper cause is in the
fact that the questions of the day are very vague I
and not such as to unite leaders and supporters '
among the liberal party as was the wise with free
trade, the Italian war, end the policy of non-intervention.
The liberal party wants time to think, time to persuade
itself and the country what is needed and what can be
earned into practice. Much, therefore, as the Saturday
/keine regrets the particular manner in which the party
has been broken up it cannot think that it will have any
real reason to lament if the conservatives will kindly do
it the great service of taking office in its stead. The
foreign policy of a Derby government would be regarded
L with reasonable suspicion, for the retrograde theories and
despotic sympathies of the principal leaders of the eon-

THE YACHTINCI CRUISE OF THE DUKE OF
EDINBURGH AT LIVERPOOL.

LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY Num?.
As soon as the yachts made their start, the head of the
Alert was turned down the river, amidst the cheers of
hundreds of persons crowded on the piers on both shores,
as well as from some dozen of overloaded steamers follow-
ing in the wake of the Alert. On pasting the North Fort
a royal salute was fired. Shortly r the yachts
to
the mouth of the river the wind gradually fell, and it was
with great difficulty that they succeeded in rounding the
north-went lightship, and it soon afterwards became so
calm that all hopes of the race coming to a termination
in the daytime had reluctantly to be given up,
to the intense regret of the various owners and crews of
the yachts, oho unexpectedly deprived of a chance of re-
ceiving the Queen's cup from the hands of royalty. To'
pass the time, however, the Duke (now a Master of Trinity
House) went on board the north-west light-ship d.
minutely inspected the elaborate lightin an
g apparatus on
board. After luncheon, the Alert steamed slowly towards
the mouth of the Dee, and here several of the royal party
went in boats to Hilbre Island, where they rambled about
for some time. After watching the vain efforts of the
competing yachts to make headway, the Alert slowly
steamed along the coast towards Liverpool, amidst more
hearty cheers from eager and patient spectators on both
shores. The Duke and party landed at the Prince's land-
ing stage about 6 p.m., and drove off to the Grange in
company with his worthy host, Mr. Graves, M.P., who
is the commodore of the Royal Mersey Yacht Club. To-
day the Duke will visit the yards of Messrs. Laird Brothers,
at Birkenhead, lay the foundation of the Children's In-
firmary, and deliver prizes in St. George's Hall to volun-
teers who have been the best shots during the week at
the contest of the County Rifle Association. The Duke
will leave Liverpool about 5.20 p.m., we understand, for
Trentham, the seat of the Duko of Sutherland, who will
next week entertain their Royal Highnesses the Prince
and Princess of Wales.
