THE END.

Ws have now the end of the fortnight's cam-
paign distinctly in view. The smoke has cleared
away from the field of battle. The seven or eight
straggling elections which have yet to come off
can make no more difference than the stray shots
that may be heard after the rattle of the artillery
and the platoon firing has ceased. Taking a calm
survey of the result we have every reason to congra-
tulate the great Liberal party on the victory it has
achieved. Considering the special issue on which
the verdict of the country was asked, and the
respectable and tender feelings--not to say the
strong passions—which it was calculated to
arouse, we are somewhat astonished at the spon-
taneous and unequivocal response of the nation.
Yet our Conservative contemporaries will scarcely
acknowledge the defeat of their party. " The
•'
people in the largest sense of the word," we
are told this very day, " have rallied to the cause
•` of Conservatism." Is this so or is it not ? Our
readers shall judge for themselves. We do not
pledge ourselves to the absolute accuracy of every
figure in the following analysis, but of their sub-
stantive verity there ear, be no doubt.
We shall first take the boroughs that return one
*ember to Parliament. There are 104 such
boroughs in England and Wales, including the
London University. Of these 38 are represented
by Conservatives, 00 by Liberals, giving a majo-

Publics protest was mid* at the time of Ur.
CATCH'S appointment to Lambeth. on the ground
of his past career ; and the Poor-law Board was
steely censured for pondering to what was held
to be the guardians' hankering after anumknown
to be • severe di,soiplinarian. It is quite pondble
that Dr. Manuals has token the charm-
ter of this workhorse-master into account ;
bat it would be infinitely mere satildsetory
if the evidence had been pabliebed and we had
known the grounds upon which his apparently
lutist decision was based. For the worst of the
metier ;ale that the department at Whitehall is
tightly or wrongly credited with a desire to
built matters up. Mr. Famear.z. was never
forgiven for holding inquiries in publio ;
and Mr. Futurrro is believed to hold
that the first duty of an inspector is to keep things
quiet. Perhaps the reel moral of the case before
us is that the Poor-law Board Been needs light
thrown in upon it. When Lord DITCH has retired
upon his laurels, and an experienced legislator
rules in his stead, we may hope to have not merely
the mode of oonduoting inquiries explained, but
the course usually taken by Mr. Fr uric as secre-
tary upon the inepeotor's report. If it should
turn out that he has been as indifersat and ob-
structive as is said, then Mr. Flamm and the
officials following in his wake most go.

OUR OONTEMPORARIB3.
(THIS DAY.)

The information that the Premier has socepted
the dignity of a Viscountess for Kn. Dimuli will, the
Time thinks, interest the rain, and will certainly &s-
-pleen nobody. That Yr. Disraeli should alines Willem
a amen on his wife's head rather than upon his own is
natural and creditable, and oar anonyms:, hops the
right hon. gentleman will long lied the tory party as plain
" Yr.," and that only in extreme *ld age will he sachange
his familiar appellation for the vain titles of nobility or
cht
Tb. aily News, on the other hand, doubts the truth of
the announoement. To create lira Disraeli a peeress

whileber husband is still in *Moe, would be
wholly without precedent, and would itself form •
very bad precedent. As a eall more important objection,
the Daily Neva points out that a signal mark of approval
given to • Prime Minister while bolding Abe, just pre-
vious to a great parliamentary contention on whisk his
tenure of power depends, may be misjudged as an intima-
tion of royal opinion upon matters whisk it is for the
House of Commons to determine, uninfluenced by the sup-
posed opinions of any other power in the realm. A minis-
ter is bound to guard the Sovereign against the false sem-
blame even of taking aide with a party and against a
policy, and especially with a party on the point of falling,
and against a policy awaiting its second emphatic assertion
by the representatives of the nation.
The Star observes that English men and women, as •
rule, do not think peerages mere toys, but if they are mere
compliments, mere carkenr, mere souvenirs such as may be
playfully left on Joan's dreseing-table in the fulness of
Darby's uxorious heart, so let it be. Only in future,
when we ennoble a Napier, • Oolonsay, • Cairns, a Lord
John EtruneU, • Butte, a Macaulay, or a Lytton, it is jest
possible that the most conservative of us will not feel that
the elevation has quite the magnifiesoos or significance
traditionally attributed to it.
The itkgroph thinks this conferment of title and dig-
nity is really • very pretty method of "living to fight
another day." With inimitable toot and geese, Mr.
Disraeli transmutes the consolation of dolma Into the
honours of victory. Winning by undisputed tit and
perseverance the coronet of • peer, be hands it with an
attached and fond obeisance to the partner of his cares
and triumphs, and by the act charms it against every word
of envy or criticism.
The Standard says that with her usual good taste and
fine tact, the Queen has chosen the highest form of com-
pliment to her faithful servant in raising Mrs. Disraeli to
the rank of • peewees.

Dimming the Eastern question, the Ames observes
that in the &beano. of any special causes to the coetrery,
it is probable enough that the policy delineated by Lord
Stanley will actually be the policy of the British govern-
ment in future, and that just as fifteen years ago we
„drifted" Into war without ever distinctly intending to
break the peace, so, by the light of new doctrines, we
shall drift into non-intervention without say seeeible sur-
render of our traditional opinions.

The /tut says there may be observed in the conduct of
Mr. Disraeli of late several indications that be has at lad
thoroughly made up his mind to movies fade and to so-
curd his position, end it is to be hoped that his retirement
from dies wilt not be marked by those attempts to hold
on which discredited his party during the carriage of the
Behan DU

The Amid is by no means disposed to underrate the
laws sustained by the sainaterialists, but in the moral
weight derived from the support of the great popular
cmatitnencies their strength is immensely isereased. The
working men have been true to their real Mends. It is
" the people" in the lined stave of the word who have
rallied to the muse of 000servatian.

OUR PARIS LZTTER.

(111001 00i OW 000000000007.)
PAPA FIIDLT Emma.

The Dike, atter quoting extracts from recent
speeches of Mr. Disraeli and Lord Stanley as the
webfoot of possible diplomatic efforts of Easissil
to maintain the peace of Europe, says it hears bum
Berlin that there is some foundation for the notion
of an English mediation. The idea was first started
in Paris. The cabinet of the Tuileries, impressed
with the conviction that England is perfectly
neutral and impartial between Prance and Prussia,
and at the same time is deeply interested in avoid-
ing a general war, made suggestions in accordance
with what it conceived to be the neces-
sities of England and the opinions of
her statesmen. The basis of these suggestions
was that the strict execution of the treaty of
Prague was a matter of deep concernment to all
Europe. From these premises, which the cabinet
of the Tuileries considers "

v," it do-

dnoes the conclusion that the only efficacious gua-
rantee for peace would be a treaty made pursuant
to English mediation, by which all Europe would
guarantee the status gra of Germany in perpetuity,
and make a cans be& not only of the annexation
by Prussia of any of the minor states, but (treat-
ing them in every sense as minors) making it im-
possible for them to vote their own annexation.
I think I need not analyse any further. The ab-
surdity of this notion must be already sufficiently
apparent to your mind. I for one have never been
dazzled by the solemn verbosity of stately articles
on foreign affairs in the Nbags, signed by the
" secretaire de la redaction." That the present one
is the shadow of a red herring which the French
government has been dragging I most devoutly
believe. But we know that Lord Stanley in a
speech, which the Debats abstains from quoting,
expressed his belief that France would
have to acquiesce in ,the domination of
Prussia throughout Germany. The French
journals, which, so long as war is not declared,
want to keep up the Bourse, and put the
public on a wrong scent, pretend now to believe
that Lord Clarendon, who they take for granted
is to be Mr. Gladstone's Minister for Foreign
Affairs, is prepared to do all the work turned
down in the Dibats. It suffices to read the
speech in which Mr. Gladstone sternly repri-
manded Mr. Disraeli for the baseless levity with
which he spoke of foreign affairs at the Lord
Mayor's dinner, to be quite sure that the coming
government will not commit the country to any
such fearful intervention in continental matters as
the " very special" correspondence of the D•? Cats
supposes. _ _ _

The example of the Clermont-Ferrand judges

-has been followed at Castree, where the inCiep:ll-

dant del Tarn, defended by M. Bear], was this
morning acquitted on the charge of " practising
manceuvres" by publishing the Baudin subscrip-
tions. Repetitions of such checks will damage
the government mote than almost anything that
could be conceived. One of tlui great reasons
of the cop d'efat statesmen for abblishing trial by
jury in political cases was to secure the empire
against such acquittals as juries were in the
habit of pronouncing in the latter part of
Louis Philippe's reign. For years the
system answered the purpose of its founders,
and prosecution and condemnation were
long esteemed convertible terms. But now, at
last, the correctional judges themselves shrink
from the task assigned them ; they feel that the
cord is being pulled too tight, and look to put
themselves right with a proximate an I better
future.

A telegram received this evening states that the
lrogree de Lille has been sentenced to a month's
imprisonment and a fine of 500 fr., but that a
motion of the public prosecutor to suppress the
publication of M. Oambetta'e speech for the de-
fence was refused by the tribunal.
A subscription has been set on foot for the erec-
tion of a statue to the sculptor and republican
David d'Angers, in his native town. This is clearly
just as much a " mantenne " as the Bandin sub-
scription, more especially as it is stated by the
provincial journal taking the initiative that David
was an exile of Dec. 2.
All the journeymen printers at Paris not em-
ployed on the daily press threaten to strike on

candidate. He never rose to any importance.
