The Globe—which spoke a day or two back as if
Lord Derby's acceptance of the leadership of the
Conservative in the Lords were an arranged matter—
has evidently no very definite information. Last
night it had a note ridiculing the Liberal press for
regarding the Earl as no longer a Conservative.
In the course of the article the following passage
occurs: " With respect to who shall be chief in
the Lords, if our contemporaries will wait with
what patience they may be able to command, they
shall be satisfied ; and we doubt' not that the Con-
servatives will be able to give a perfectly good
account of themselves, possibly as good, or even
better; than their opponents could wish." This
looks as if there were still uncertainly. The Record
also opposes Lord Derby's appointment.

IRISH ELECTIONS.

Mr. Martin, the Nationalist candidate for Longford,
did not muster one-fourth of the votes given to Mr.
Greville-Nugent, the Liberal. The gross poll repre-
sents the latter as winning with 1,491 votes, and the
former as a bad second, with 432. The rioting was
very moderate for Ireland. The list of casualties
reports "only" one man seriously wounded at Granard.
Fur Queen's County there has been a walk over. Mr.
Edmund Dense was elected without opposition. He
promises fixity of tenure, and in general all the
demands of the advanced Liberal and tenant party.
MR. BRIGHT'S REPLY TO THE RECIPROCITABIANS.
Mr. Bright promises to become as notable as Earl
Russell for his public letters. He can, we have seen,
write sharp, pungent, epistles ; he can also pen
oracular ones. Witness his reply to the Birmingham
Reciprocitarians. They hare been holding meeting,
and have passed resolutions against Free Trade. They
enclosed them to their senior member, the President
of the Board of Trade, and seem to haVa_expectedik..,
rapping reply. They were honoured with the fol-
lowing :,--
Rochdale, December 24th, 1869.
Sir,—l thank you for sending me the copy of the reso-
lutions, to which your note refers.
I am, respectfully,
Mr. John Houghton, Birmingham. JOHN BRIGHT.
