say farther," exclaimed Mr. Insaasu, N that you
cannot introduce the system of vote by ballot without
changing the whole character of England, social
and politicaL" The unsympathising auditors
responded, "We want the change." With
his own inimitable seltressesion, Mr. DIS-
RAELI followed up these discouraging responses
by the bursts of eloquence which he had
intendq should appear to have been elicited by ex-
clanians of a diametrically opposite character. But
though it might have been said of him, as Hosteu
Quickly said of Fatal, "Oh, the Father! how he
holds hie countenance," in his heart he moat have
felt almost as much discomfitted as the Cockney
tourist who, when he attempted to awaken an Irish
echo by the question, " How do you do, Paddy
BLAKE ?" was petrified by the answer, " What's
that to you, you durty blackguard?"

ON et upon a time a conclave of gentlemen eat
down to try which could utter the sentiment whisk
should be unanimously received as mot flisinstri-
cally opposed to universal conviction. Able sundry
ingenious attempts, one of them betlw/►t him
of the astounding assertion that " Wows. see not
capricious," and to him the victory was nt epee
adjudged. Looking to the results of the present
elections, it is hard to say whether our consti-
tuencies might not be deemed worthy rival, of
the ladies in their caprices ; but probably, if the
truth were known, the influence of the fair sex
upon the elections has been much greater than is
at first apparent. There has lately been a good
deal of discussion about the rights of women; but
perhaps if the sturdiest opponent of their claims
were aware of the secret influence they exert, he
might be disposed to compromise the matter, by
acquiescing in arrangements which would oblige
them to exercise it openly. There are indication;
that woolen even now assert their rights with con-
siderable elect in political matters, and that the men
are the unconscious or perhaps the willing victims
of their domination. In this there is nothing sue-

priming. The days of chivalry may be put, but
the same influences which animated the mailed
knights of old in the lists still animate the bare-
headed, paletot-elad stump-orators of the modern
hustings. Go down to any borough election, take
your plass epos the hustings, and look around. The

The use, the daughters, and the infant children of

maw emissity which inspired the arrival of Lady
PALK/MON in a carriage and four in the very midst
of her popular Viscount's electoral oration, and the
presence of Lady Jonas Rtrasett. in the Guildhall of
London. M. ALLTANDHE Dunes contemplating
the ladies at the Southwark hustings, seems to
have been elated into sublimity. Speaking of Mr.
Loess, one of the candidates for the borough, and
whom M. DUMAS describes as " the advocate of the
City "—retranslated French for " a City pleader"—
" a man of 48, vigorous, broad chested, made for the
struggles of the bar, and ready for the much more
exciting struggles of the tribune"—the lively French-
man find records the stentorian success of the learned
gentleman, and then records the action of the ladies.
"Likeitnemonscar," he says, "when she encouraged
Hexes from the walls of Troy, Mrs. Locus en-
couraged her husband down from the hustings." Bat

hmdaayexperience of elections to avoid being struck
by the influence which personal appearance has
upon electors—whether male or female, for women
are in truth as active electioneering agents as men.
It is not many years since the beautiful Lady
FIELDING was placed within view of Cambridge
University, that " the heavenly rhetoric of her eye"
might charm the electors into voting for her hus-
band. Let no man, therefore, think that women are
without influence. Even in these days of the seem-
ing despotism of " the lords of the creation " female
influence is all-powerful.
But this is not all. It would be mime to know
in how many elections the result is due to the social
tactics of the candidates. Ifs successful lawyer who
has made his fortune conceives the desire to get into
Parliament, let us suggest to him a plan which has
been approved by that best of all tests--suocess.
, Take a place, or, if you can, buy one in the country—
the nearer you can get to some town the better.
Marry a 'pretty, agreeable woman ; inaugurate
a series of dinners, balls, archery meetings,
and picnics ; become the soul of society in the
neighbourhood ; subscribe to all the charities of the
neighbourhood. Should Providence favour the
country with high prices and a severe winter, send
down at once 1001. worth of coals to be distributed
among the poor; and then, if your rival does the
same thing, you will have the merit of having driven
him to an act of charity of which you will reap all
the credit You need not abandon your London
tailor or your London bootmaker, but you must em-
ploy a second tailor and a second bootmaker for the
encouragement of local industry. If you can weer
at a local concert with your family in a provincial
suit, and get conveyed to the concert hall
in one of the town flies, your MIXON
will be more certain. But in all theme
elaborate manoeuvres, the candidate, especially if
he is a professional man, can scarcely expect to act
in person. A bachelor is at a serious disadvantage.
The man who hopes for success must be married.
There must be some one always on the spot. A
young lively wife is an admirable agent ; and, in-
deed, if we may judge from some of these elections,
the ruse has proved not unsuccessful.
To some recluse politicians these things may seem
trivial ; and, indeed, many may be apt to think that
we exaggerate these frivolous influences. But, dis-
guise the matter as we may, the facts are sub-
stantially as we have stated them. It is idle to
conceal them. Without question many will be sent
to the House of Commons by those who are
determined to have abuses swept away and the
cause of progress advanced. But it is no less true
that many will enter the House of Commons for no
other reemon than that they are personally popular
in their neighbourhood, that they have done some-
thing to encourage local trade and the private into-
, rests of their constituents, and, above all, that they
have pretty, pleasant, clever wives.

We (Bath Chronicle) remember that, when Mr.
Roebuck was first elected for Bath, some live and twenty
years ago, he invited his constituents to write to him, when
they bed any grievances to complain of, after the fashion set
by Andrew Marvell. Mr. Roebuck soon got the correspond-
ence which he invoked, and used to return saucy answers
to preposterous letters, which were mach complained of at
the time. Among other goriest of the sort, it was re-
lated (we do not vouch for the fact, if fact it be, but si raw;
s me e ben troves), that some " bee and fader:cadent
elector" wrote to Mr. Roebuck, informing him that a vile
tory landlord had digrained upon his good. for tent, and
would Mr. Roebuck tall him what to do P On which Mr.
Roebuck tells the elector, per return of pow, that the bag
thing he ma do is to—pay. Whereupon, the said elector
declares that it is time to get rid of that " fella," for that
he is getting "quite independent."

The of and men of the Comm behaved manfully.
The following day the Chinese fleet shifted its moorings

Niger's shot, which took a mast clean out of one of the
junks ; and wince them the Coromandel and Forbes were sett

the fleet of war Junks had been anchored.

loses the civil surgeoncy of the station for a rum
which will be understood from tho following ex.
tract from the commander-in-chiefs report :
It is now necessary to advert to a very serious oomplife
respecting • breath of professional confidence, if the offseet
can bo so saimmod, that " unmarried officers aceompssil
him, Dr. James, through the women's ward so late so to
o'clock at night." The imprudence which chsrarterires td
step of Dr. lames in allowing Lieutenant Tyre-hitt a
aecompany bun through the female ward at a late bond

stances are contemplated in which the women were ;luta?

James's may truly be said to be a sacred trust, and thebresek oft
cannot be redeemed by the object of securing Lieutmus
Tyrwhitt's evidence against Mr. Apothecary Sullissa, sr
pected of drunkenness and neglect of duty, which it adrsoog
by Dr. James as the motive that intuenoed him is per
mitting that officer to enter the female ward, and shirt
merits the severest reprehension. The indiseretien of Dr.
James on that occasion invited evidence on the Court sf

Tyrwhitt which it is painful to see recorded, and which it it
to be hoped is not true ; and in the same proceedings Lint

resistance to the new cartridges and calling npaa
them to follow their example. The government
sent messages by electric telegraph, ordering that it
rifle practice only the Europeans should fire; as no
explanation was given, this order rather routed
alarm than quieted it. There has also been some
disturbance among the troops at the large station d
Meerut, but the Englishman cannot state the parh
culars at present.
A letter from the Khyber Pass, dated the 28th

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(ROM ova OWX oonansroenair.)
TAM& WIDNIIIIDAT IMMO.
The Neufchatel Conference sat pin to-day. The
first protocol was pneaplicid on this omission ; but
no inference can be drawn from that fact that the
di/Realties recently alluded to have been got over.
There has bees a ecesiderable amount of grum-
bling in the bureaux of the Corps Legialatif against
the new tax on railway shares and other negotiable
jimmies; but, according to present symptoms the
opposition, when the debate opines on, will not be
formidable. Some members made bold to say that,
although the budget was so made out as to repro.
sent a diminution in the expenditure, there is in
het an augmentation of very many millions, and
that if things go on at the present rate, the budget
will soon be more than two milliards. The Em-
peror's mot about killing the goose that lays the
golden egg has been repeatedly quoted, and it is
roundly averred that the measure devised expressly
to steer clear of this improvident sacrifice has missed
its mark. The majority of one of the bum:, in-
cluding MM. Albufuera, Mortemart, sad Latour-
Dttmoulin, pronounced against the measure.
The appeal of the parties recently condemned in
the affair of the Napoleon Docks will come on for
hearing on April 23.
The Express, Globe, and Sun, were seised to-
day.

At the Bourse the contrast between the Rode and
the railways was even more striking than it has
hitherto been. The Renee fell 45e. for cash and
63e. for account, closing at 70fr. be., and 70fr. The
rates of confirmation were very high. The railway
market was again extremely animated, and although
owing to the persistent fall in the Bente, the
highest quotations of the day were not maintained,
almost all the lines left off at considerably higher
prices. Orleans rose 23fr. ; Mediterranean, 46tr.;
Eastern, 10fr. ; Western, 7fr. Northern, Lyons,
and Southern, Aft. each. Orend Central fell
2fr. 50e. It is noticed as a thing to be
regretted that the great companies do not come to
an understanding about the days of their general
meetings, so that all the shareholders who desire to
attend may haws an opportunity of doing so. The
meetings of the Northern, Southern, and Eastern
Companies are all fixed for April 30, at about this
sass hoar, so that it will be impossible for the
many capitalists who are holders of shares in all
three to attend more than one of the meetings.
Neriman Khan, the second councillor of the Per-
sian endessy, who left l'aris with the treaty signed
by Ferukh Khan and Lord Cowley for the ratifier
lion of the Shah of Persia, arrived at Constantin**

Trebizoode in an English steamer placed at his
disposition by Admiral Lyons. The persian dipir
twist intended to proceed to Teheran, by way at
Redout•Kaleh and Tiflis. It is calculated that he
may be at Constantinople, on his return, from the
10th to the 13th of May, and at Paris by the end of
that month.
