MONDAY, APRIL 17.

Never was the political subject more barren than
at the present moment. The elections• are over,
and a stillness reigns all around—but like the
silence of nature, it will probably be the forerunner
of a storm. Parliament will meet on the 21st inst.
-.--two or three days will be occupied by sweating
in Members, and electing a Speaker, who must be
approved by his Majesty, whose approval will be
signified by the Lord Chancellor in the House of
Lords, before the King opens the Session, which
he is expected to do in person on the 24th instant ;
and more momentous business was never before
Parliament, than that on, which they will have to
deliberate. The general distress, the prevailing
discontents, the arrangement of the Civil List, the
subject of her Majesty the Queen—each of which
will occupy a great deal of time, must all be dis-
posed of in addition to the regular and indispensable
mechanical work that Parliament must go through.
The general voice of the people regarding the
Queen, we think will be triumphant—we thin'•
that Ministers will be under the necessity of suc-
cumbing to it, and ceasing to treat her with studied
insult—they will find it requisite to assign to her,
that state that belongs to her as Queen Consort.
The disturbances in the neighbourhood ofGlasgow
and Paisley have in a great degree subsided,but the
:spirit in which they originated has not been sub-
dued. Wednesday last was the day fixed upon for
the disaffected to make a general attack, but their
plans were ill digested, and many who left their
work were evidently attracted by an 151 e curiosity,
without any intention to join the insurgents, who,
though desperate in their conduct, were in number
but few, considering that 60,000 workmen are re-
ported to have struck, the greatest portion of which
have since, however, returned to their lawful occu-
pations. Saturday last a party of the Hussars,
Rifle Brigade, and Dumbartonshire Yeomanry, went
to Milgavie, about seven miles from Glaggow,where
they made a search, and returned to the city with
five prisoners, seven guns, and above 300 rounds of
ball cartridge. It is asserted that between 4 and 500
persons had been regularly at drill fur some months
past. The Union Societies belonging to Glasgow, its
dependencies, and neighbouring villages, it is esti-
mated, fall short of a thousand, though in the hey-1
day of Radicalism they amounted to 1500. Glasgow
during Friday appeared like a place besieged, and
the town was thrown into great alarm and confu-
sion from the movement of troops. Some seized
on the three bridges, others occupied all the avenues
leading into the town ; others were stationed near
the Magistracy, when a general search for arms
took place through the town and neighbourhood,
but no great quantity was found; one party
brought in seventeen pikes from Kilbarchan, which
had a battle•axe on one side, and a tomahawk on
the other. Those persons who have arrayed them-
selves against the constituted authorities Lave been
completely duped, and if any future attempt is
made to excite a simultaneous meeting of the rest-
less and disaffected in Scotland, it is likely to fail.

It is reported that a sort of Congress will be held
at Versailles on the `.2sth current, of a few confiden-
tial friends of two illustrious character, at which her
Majesty will be present in person.
Mr. Harris, it is said, has so far settled Aortal the
late Dublin Manager, that he intends to commence
theatrical perfbrmances, under his new patent the
sth of next month, and is making arrangements
aesordingly.
