LONDON, THURSDAY, JULY 15, 1852.

The CHANCELLOR Of the ExcHaquaa yesterday
addressed a numerous body of his supporters on the
occasion. of a convivial banquet at Newport Pagnell,
and anticipation of the proceedings of to-morrow,
whe'd his own name and that of his colleague will be
pv..; in nomination as candidates to represent the
'bounty of Buckingham in the new Parliament. From
the conspicucu3 position assumed by the Right llon.
Gentleman in the preient Government the remarks
'which fell from his lips became invested with the itn.
11°1'14'4" of a spcech declaratory of the views enter-
tainA by the Alministration. It will be re-
mra ro bereft that his electioneering address to
the possessory, of the county franchise in
Buckingharns'aire was generally accepted by
the country as a document possessing the value of a
Cabinet musnifesto. His address of yesterday, there-
fore, avast doubtless be considered as of equal signi-
ficance , the more so as it had the advantage of being
spollen instead of
written, and especially considering

It was ingeniously remarked by the CHANCELLOR
of the EXCHEQUER, that while many were
asking Ministers "Why don't you say what you
will do ?" it should be remembered that the Govern-
ment ought to go to the country not upon details,
but upon principles. This remark, we repeat, was
ingenious—but while it was ingenious it was by no
means satisfactory. Nobody wanted the Cabinet to
go to the country upon details. All the people really
desired to know was the precise nature of the very
principles here alluded to by the Right Hon.
Gentleman. We fancy it would be rather difficult
to find two men in the United Kingdom capable of
agreeing as to the nature of the policy cherished
by Lord DERBY'S Administration. The Oracle
of Delphos is not more silent than the Ministry has
continued to be up to this very moment in regard to
the principles implied by the CHANCELLOR of the Ex-
CELEQUER. What they really are, the most imagina-
tive as well as the most discerning are bewildered in
the attempt to conjecture. All the community can
do is to await as patiently as possible the hour of
their ultimate revelation. Hitherto our administrators
have kept us in the dark as to their intentions; and
now one of the chief men in the Govern-
ment reminds us that it has been the duty of
himself and his colleagues to go to the country not
upon details but upon principles. Precisely. But
where are they ? How can we discover them ? Can
they be deemed visible under the glittering haze of
these rhetorical generalities ? Is the empire to be
ruled not by a policy but by the shadow of a policy—
not by a party but by the spectre of a party—not by
a sober consistency in this proposition or in that, but
by the fluctuating splendour of a gorgeous.but shallow
hallucination ?

Before the final elections are completed it may be
as well to review with as much accuracy as possible the
nature of the results already known in regard to the
new Parliament. To-morrow, besides other county
elections in England, the election of Buckingham will
commence, according to routine, with the nomination.
Within two or three days afterwards the rest of
the contests throughout the United Kingdom will
have been accomplished. It is advisable, therefore,
we cannot but think, to cast a glance back at the
" facts and figures" collected together in reference to
those contests which have been up to this
time actually completed. Already, then, 280
constituencies have pronounced upon the momentous
question submitted to their judgment by the SOVE-

REIGN. These 280 constituencies have elected 45

representatives. These 451 representatives must be
divided as follows:
Liberals • . . .
• • Derbyites . •

the circumstance that it was delivered in the very
height of the general elections, and when consequently
a retrospective survey might be taken of the results
already known, so as to form something like a rea-
sonable conjecture as to the probable strength of
parties (relatively speaking) on the assembling of
the newly-created Legislature. There was much
cause for the exultation with which Mr. DISRAELI
referred to the advantages secured by the Ministerial
candidates in such instances as that of the great sea-
port of Liverpool. No wonder he augured well
from the fact of two Derbyites being returned by
Dublin the London, and by Belfast the Manchester
of Ireland—triumphs to the Ministry scarcely subor-
dinateto that achieved, as already intimated, at Liver-
pool It was natural, also, that he should.speak in terms
of satisfaction of the successes simultaneously secured
at places like Dover and Greenwich. Hardly less
natural was it that he should remain altogether
dumb as to the losses sustained elsewhere by the
Government. The reverse of the medal was not to be
looked at—the intaglio was rather disagreeable in this
instance, and was therefore to be thrust out of the
opportunity of examination. Newport was nothing
—Stafford was nothing—neither was there anything
in the failures of the Ministerialists at Newaik, at
Maidstone, or at Leeds, any snore than there could be
at Kidderminster, at Halifax, or at Aylesbury. The
pleasant things were to be talked about on the
eve of the election for the county of Buckingham.

Therefore, we say, the disagreeable were to be
eschewed as out of the question, and—in fact—
as nothing to the purpose. This, we allow, at
once was but reasonable under the circumstances.
A leading member of the Opposition would have
anted in no way differently. It was the course
obviously advisable for the occasion. And a con.
summate tactician like Mr. DISRAELI could not be
any ill-timed candour to mar the in-
expected by
fluence of the golden moment presented to him both
as a candidate for a seat in the House of Commons
and as one of the foremost men in the Adminis-
tration.
