(From the Edinburgh Pilot.)
Most unwilling have we been to entertain a suspicion of
the fidelity of this once efficient advocate of reform. We
can hardly yet credit our senses or our conclusions. What
confidence can the people henceforward cherish in their
most zealous advocates? It is better, now, however, that
the Spectator has avowed his adhesion to the Conservative
(?) party. His calculations and quibblings will less dece4e.
Till a change is manifest in the spirit and objects of the
Spectator, we must class him with Sir Francis Burdett.
the Times, and tl,o Deserters. We write these comments
in literal anguish of mind ; it is with no design to malign or
pervert the opinions of our once trusted and admired contem-
porary. Our admiration of the Spectator was sincere, and
our vexation and disappointment are not less genuine. The
people must henceforth work without his aid. The follow-
ing is his manifesto. Let him no more be called a Radical,
but a Conservative (?) :
" For our own part, we are humbly of opinion that I
Conservative Government, however composed, will be found
very much preferable to a Reform' Government, merely
so called, existing upon many pretences, and the one reality
of its alliance with Mr. O'Connell. Almost anything
better than being cheated. A Conservative Governmeat
will make no dupes, but will pass for what it really is.
Under such a Government, the Reformers, no longer duped
by fake pretences, must rely wholly upon their principles
and themselves, which will be a great point gained. Joseph
Hume will not pat the back' of a Conservative Ministry,
but may be himself again, in his only proper place on the
Speaker's left hand. Perhaps Lord Durham, excluded
from a Conservative Government, may resume the policy
lately called his ; but if he should not, others will' appro-
priate it. We mention these names in order only to indi-
cate the probability of a watchful, vigorous, and highly use-
ful opposition. Lastly, it will be strange if a Government
avowedly Conservative, and, therefore, destitute of pre-
tences wherewith to gull the earnest Reformers, should not
bid for popularity by promoting administrative improve-
ments. Practical improvements, we are satisfied, will be
more attainable under a Government ostensibly opposed
to Reform,' than under a Reform Government' merely
so-called. The sham at en end, some some reality of good
must needs occur. We, who have constantly regarded
practical improvement as the end of all political exertion,
and organic reform as a means only, can rejoice, therefore,
at least as truly as the Melbourne Whig prints, at thenol
obvious necessity of a Government essentially Conservative.

CLOSE OF THE ELECTION.

(From the Dublin Evening Post.)
The General Election is now over ; and the general re-
sult is an ascertained majority of forty.
During the progress of the elections we did not allow car
partialities or our hopes to interfere with our calculations ;
and we now find that we were perfectly right throughout,
The Times and Standard, Chronicle and Globe, state the
majority at forty.
We think it totally superfluous to add a word on the
mawkish and slobbering trash through which the Evening
Mail, with the aid of a London Radical paper, is trying to
puzzle for the purpose of showing that Ministers are in sa
minority. But, with regard to the same Radical paper
(Spectator), without which our Dublin Contemporary could
not get along in its arithmetic, we have to observe, that it
has been all alone an impugner of the Whigs, and quite as
much in opposition as the Times and Standard—and,
fighting under Liberal colours, it has, to its utmost, sought
to damage what we may be allowed to eall the Liberal
cause. Hence the use which Slop makes of it—hence its
use to the English Tories.
The cry of the Spectator, and of that section of Tory
Radicals of which it is the organ, has been, and is this
that Ministers were not Radical enough ; and that if they
had been more Radical they would have the support of the
country. Well, then, the General Election is the test.
And what is the result, as regards the Radicals? Why,
that, with one or two exceptions, the Radicals have been
been driven with defeat from the hustings everywhere they
appeared. One of the most able of them, Mr. Roebuck.
was beaten by an immense Tory majority at Bath.
The people of England are more Tory than Radical--
but they are more Reformers and Whigs than either. The
constituencies of the towns have rendered this a demon-
strated proposition. Had Ministers taken the advice of
the Radicals, there would at this moment be a Tory Admi-
nistration in England, and an Orange Government at the
Castle of Dublin. God forgive us, if we be wrong—but we
do believe, nevertheless, that this is the object of all the
fine patriotic writing we see occasionally.
With regard to the majority—we have said repeatedly►
and we reiterate the assertion now—that the present is 11
better, is a more working, a more Ministerial majority than
the last. It is a majority, too, we may fairly assume, that
will increase.

We have no apprehensions as to the determination of
Ministers to do the needful. Their course is certainly as
clear as it can be. After passing the Civil List, they have
only to re-introduce the measures cushioned by the House
of Lords during the last two or three years. With regard
to one of these measures, the Irish Corporation Bill, they
will not, we suspect, find much opposition in the House Of
Commons—and, indeed, we do not see why it might not be
sent to the Upper before Christmas.
In respect to the Church of Ireland Bill, it may happen
that Ministers will find more difficulty in passing it through
the Commons—but pass it they will. The Lords, perhaps,
mny again throw it out. So much the worse for the
Church—but we cannot see why they should resign, there-
fore. Nor will they.
The Church Rate Bill will be so modified that there is
every likelihood of its passing through the House of Com'
- by a considerable majority ; and considering the
moo..
straits to „,,,,t;eli thei Church is now reduced, by the almost
the. rate, we imagine that the Lords
