We have little to add to the remarks which we have be-
fore
made upon the Elections which have now commenced.'
Our wish was, from the first, to see the business effected
without that general commotion which usually attends
such an event. It was our aim, as far as lay in our power,
by the few remarks which we made on the subject, to
allay the contention of opinions, which has in general
agitated the whole social machine on similar occasions—to
subdue, by calm reason, those petty jealousies which
sometimes divide men on some trivial point, who would
otherwise most cordially unite in pursuing objects of
paramount importance—to introduce a spirit of concilia-
tion and tolerance into the minds of parties which had be•
fore been opposed to each other, in many cases rather in
appearance than in reality—sni to strengthen, if possible,
the party (if party we can call it) of those whose object is
Lena . fine to promote, by every means in their power, both
natidnal and universal prosperity. Happily the promotion
of these objects did not depend entirely on such feeble
efforts as ours. The wisdom of his Majesty's Aliuisters
had provided the means of securing this desirable end, by
forbearing to excite any useless opposition against nien
whose principles may in some cases be erroneous, but
whose motives are pure, while their numbers and influence
are not sufficient to give currency to their errors. For this
*won we confess we differ from some whose way of think-
ing in general coincides with our own. We rejoice to see
site Westminster election terminate so peaceably. We re-
joim to see Sir F. BURDETT and Mr. Honnouss returned
to the House of Commons, not because our opinions and
*sits in many cases are not as distant as antipodes—
aft because we think that no other persons could be
Mad who could represent Westininster more effec-
tally ; but because we sincerely think that such men
ars useful in a deliberative assembly; and because, after
all, we believe that in many essential points they are
di•posed to support Ministers in their labours fur the good
of the country. In spite of all that can be said, the peo-
ple of England are of no party. They have too much good
sense nut to see who their real friends are, and though mo-
mentarily led astray, they never fail soon to return to a
sound and rational way of thinking. However paradoxical
mach an assertion might have seemed seven years ago, we
will venture now to affirm, without hazarding any such
reproach,—because few who look at the state of the public
mind will differ from us,—that most of the electors of West-
moister, if Mr. CANNING had been put in nomination,
would actually have divided their votes between the Radi-
cal and the Tory : so fully persuaded are the people of
Westminster that patriotism, like truth, is of no party, or
be found in all. The unfortunate circumstances
are said to have occurred at Carlisle, have, we hope,
very
much exaggerated. Such accidents in a country
Ws this, and at a time of so much popular excitement, it
Sisal of the reach of human foresight entirely to prevent;
but while we regret the calamity, we cannot help deriving
from it a motive of congratulation to the nation, since it
snows to what lengths things might have been carried in
places of more population and importance, if Ministers had
nit wisely forborne to rouse the passions of the populace
by contesting the elections in the way that has been usual
at melt places as Westminster.
CITY, Felony Evzxtiro.
Election polities rather than Stock Eazhange speculations were
thought of to-day, and the state of the poll was more talked of than
. the grice of Consols. This temporary change In the .uinds of the
frequenters of the Exchanges, caused a partial suspension of buil-
um, and a consequent langour in the Money Markets. Cons*
fat the Account opened at 80i I, and closed at i i. The Now

Bestridesthere was no variation, and the prices in the

Sophia visited the Princess Augusta.
The Earl of Chatham, Governor of Gibraltar, transacted
business with Earl Bathurst yesterday, at the Colonial
Office.

Yesterday Baron S:iernhold, the Swedish Minister,

On Thursday Mr. Secretary Canning, Mr. Iluskisson,
and a select party, dined with the Marquis of Stafford.
Mr. Secretary Canning left the party much sooner than he
intended, inconsequence of its being communicated to him
that a party of the electors of iVestinitister were waiting to
see him, at his residence in Downing-street.
Mr. Secretary Canning left town yesterday morning, to
attend the Ascot Races.

Yesterday morning, about eight o'clock, Mr. Iluskisson
left London, on his way to Liverpool.
LIVERPOOL.—A letter was read, in Clayton-square, this
evening, from I'. Green, dated at Manchester, June 8, ad-
dressed to the Independent Freemen of Liverpool, stating,
after the needful and necessary information of his arriving
there, at 8 o'clock, last evening, that lie had waited upon
Mr. Houldsworth, but, like Counsellor Williams, he was
from home, having gone to Pontefract to offer himself for
that place • but Mr. Green saw his nephew, who was
highly pleased with die invitation of so respectable a body.
Mr. Green wished the Meeting to proceed to business,
and supposing that Mr. Houldsworth would not or could not
come to Liverpool, the Meeting were requested to show
hands in favonr of proposing Major Gaacoyne, the son of
the General, and to join the procession, to-morrow, of the
entre of General Gascoyne, at 1 o'clock. It would appear
that they are really afraid of having an unusual affair in
Liverpool, " a dry election."
CONCITILT.—Last night Miss Woolrych's concert was
n at the Argyll Rooms, and was most numerously ani
fashionn!ly attended. The pieces performed consisted
principaliy of selections from Mozart, Ciinarosa, and Ros-
sini. One cf the most successful (-Worts of the evening
was " Una voce poco fa," by Mademoiselle Cauzi ; it was
deservedly encored. A military concerto on the harp, by
Miss Woolrych, displayed considerable taste and great
power of execution. The Signori Gambati performed •
duet on two trumpets, and evidenced great command over
their instruments. Though there was much merit in this
effort, the comparatively small size of the rooms rendered
the n3ise decidedly objectionable—it was enough to "split
the ears of the groundings." We cannot say the same of
Mr. Sapio's voice, which, in" Non piu Andrei;" was over-
powered by the accompaniment. He was, to use the l'ar-
liamentary phrase, inaudible in the gallery. Miss Paton
was prevented by indisposition ; and, as a sort of make-
weight, we suppose " I've been roaming," was entrusted
to Miss Love, who sung it with more of pertness than
that naivete which has rendered it so popular. One of
II ny in's productions closed the performances of the evening.
