have been desired in many important questions which
press for the consideration of Parliament. Little has ,t
present been done, thoughmuch has been announced, aid
is now already sufficiently before the pablic to enable them
to judge of the intentions anal views entertained by M ni-
sters. There is one point, however, connected rvito the
oxpenditut e of the country, upon which I took the liberty of
,ffering some anticipations when I had last the hotpot: af
standing in this situation before you, and in which it is
satisfactory to find that those anticipations have been in-
deed exceeded. I stated, with reference particulaily to a
large reduction in the naval department of this country,
that although we were at the time threatens t with troa-
oles and disturbances in various parts of Europe, which
would render it nee scary for the purprise of maintaining
that naval superiority and pre-eminence w ich no Ei,glsh-
man, I am confident, would wish to see impaired or di-
:ninishenl, to keep our navy upon a footing higher than
inight, perhaps, be required in ordinary times of peace,
that even under those circumstances it had been the good
fortune!, or, I might say, rather the goad management of
ny Right Hon. Friend at the head of that department to
make, even in this time of partial service, a reduction in
the annual expenditure to the amount of 1,000,000/ an-
nnally below the estimate of his predecessors in office,__
that, notwithstanding that reduction, I sated to you when
I was here before, that we had every confidence bat the
extraordinary call upon the service of the navy for t.,,e
present year would not have to render it necessary in the
preaent year to exceed the sum for which we asked. Now,
it is satisfactory to me to be able to remind you that so
completely I ave our anticipations be it realized, that
we had actually at the end of the year a surplus
of above 300,000/. upon the reduced estimate; anal
that in the course of the present, in addition to that tai;.
lion, we hive had a further reduction to the amount
270,000/.—(Cheers.) In the army also (and these are
the only two estimates yet submitted to the consideration
of Parliament), though, unhappily, there also raducti
cannot at present be carried to the extent we &sire we
have made a reduction to the amount of 220,000/. in the
present year, making, therefore, upon the miittry and
naval establishments of the country in the present year, as
compared with the last, when the amount of reducdott
was above 1 200,0004, reductions to the amount of very
near 500,000/. These are the only two estimates yet
submitted to Parliament; but I think I may confidently
appeal to them as a proof, that, in intrusting the prosent
Administration with the conduct of affairs, th.ey have not
been intrusted to an Administration inattentive to
public economy or lavish in the expenditure of the re-
sources of the country.—(Cheers.) I trust you xv:,;,
never find, on the other hand, that they have been in,
trusted to an Administration which, in the pursnit of a,
false economy, would wish to cripple or impa;,r the naval„
the military, or the commercial resources of this great arid
important empire.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, I ant not
aware that there is any other point (having so lately had
the honour of expressing very fully the political views a
entertain, so far as it is necessary to explain them to you)
upon which it is necessary for me to tiespass up in your
time and attention. I have come before you with a confi
thence that you would not withdraw from me that favour
and kindness which you have shown me on a former occa-
sion. lam certain that, in my conaluct heretofore, there
has been intentionally nothing which should forfeit that
good opinion. Certain I am, that ins sending me to Prat
liament you are not conferring upon me any sirt,caurr,
situation,—certain I am that I am not exposed to that ob-
noxious tide of sinecurist, even if I must plead guilty to,
being a placeman. lam sure, gentlemen, these are not,
times when public men can earn the salaries they receive
without working for them ; and I am sure that my col-
leagues anal those who have an opportunity of ju aging wi I
not think that I am one upon whom the share of labour has
fallen most lightly.—(Loud cheers )
Jon N ADDISON, Esq., the &lea iff's assessor, hae'‘og p,ua-
claimed that unless some other candidate should be pro-
posed Mr. Stanley would be drclired duly elected, thy;
Sheriff said, " I declare Mr. Stanley to be duly elected one
of the knights of the shire for the northern division of this
county."

Mr. STANLEY, M.P., having been girt with the sword,
came forward and said—'• I trust, gentlemen, that in the
peculiar situation in which I stand, you will not deem it
any disrespect to you and to this county, and, on the con-
tray, that you will rather consider it as an earnest of my
anxious desire zealously to perform the duties imposed
upon me, if in pursu ince of those duties, I am compelle-a
to leave you in the course cf the present day. lam sure,
you are aware that at the present moment my preseroo in.
London is necessary ; and, though I have spared some
time for the purpose of meeting my late, and, am now
happy to say, my present constituents, I al-, nut justified
in making my aosence from the scene of those duties one
moment longer than is absolutely necessary. Before thin.
meeting dissolves, I may perhaps be permitted to move„
tin it the thanks of this court be given to the High Sherif)
fur his conduct in presiding over it."—(Cheers.
EDMUND HOKNBY, El., seconded the motion, whirls
passed unanimousy.

The High Sheriff returned thanks, and the court was
dissolved.

COVENTRY ELEu fION.

TRIUMPH OP MR. ELLIcE.
The pull, it was supposed, was virtu dly closed on Fri-
lay; but owing to the obstinacy (for there was not the
least probability of success) of Mr. Thomas's pdrty, it was
litpt open until 4 o'clock.
