The election for this borough, consequent upon
the appointment of the Right Hon. Robert Lowe
to the officekof Vice-President of the Committee of
Council on Education, took place yesterday, and,
unlike the last occasion of Mr. Lowe 's appearance in
the borough, matters passed off very quietly.
The right hon. gentleman's re-election was pro-
posed by Mr. W. H. PARRY, and seconde a by Mr.
DOWDING ; and no other candidate being proposed,
Mr. Lowe was declared duly elected ; a nd, after a
slight cheer, he proceeded to address tl:ie few deo;
tors who were present. In alluding to his smell;
ance of office in the present Govern
nt he said -4
to have objected to take office because
would have been unpardonable bigotry on his par.,
who form
the present Government were not of his own Poli-
tical creed. He could say that he fel- t glad to see
the party organised upon the Liberal . basis upon
s
which it now stood, and he trusted t' net the same
c nit a its ar-
irit would be exercised in carryin
rapngements as had been shown in bin dingll it toge-
ther,_e and that moderation and fakir, !SS would b
exhibited towards all.

The Ministerial elections will not be completed
when the country will have to listen to the Minis-
terial Explanations. Mr. COBDEN has not yet re-
turned. The office set apart for his refusal or ac-
ceptance is not as yet occupied, of course, in conse-
quence. It remains still a matter of uncertainty
whether the Hon. Gentleman will take part with
Mr. MILNER GIBsoN who has, in two senses, been
taken in—or with Mr. JOHN BRIGHT, who has
been shamefully and most unadvisedly left out;
whether the election at Rochdale will have to be
gode through all over again—this' ,mm With
RICHARD COBDEN addressing his constituency from
the hustings in his new character as a Privy
Councillor. Besides, this particular and exceptional
uncertainty as to a Ministerial election still left to
be an incident purely conjectural in the history of
the new Parliament—there is one of the most im-
portant of all these various appeals made to the
electors by the various members of the Coalition
Cabinet having seats in the House of Commons—
there is the appeal made by Mr. GLADSTONE to the
possessors of the electoral franchise in the Univer-
sity of Oxford, the reply to which appeal will not
be known until the morrow of the re-assembling of
the Legislature on Thursday to listen to Lord PAL-
MERSTON'S explanations. At the Oxford University
election in truth,more will be decidedprobably than
the immediate fate both as a member of Parliament
and as an administrator, of the right hon. gentle-
man the Chancellor of her MAJESTY'S Exchequer.
What Lord GEORGE BENTINCK nobly called "the
chastity of the honour " of our public men will
have then and there the opportunity of being
signally vindicated. Nothing, we may be certain,
but his sense of the absolute necessity for that vin-
dication could have induced the hon. gentleman the
member for Dorsetshire to assume, in direct anta-
gonism to the individual interests of his friend and
fellow Oxonian, the prominent post of Chairman
of Lord CHANDOS' Committee. As yet, it is true,
but the commencement of the five days' contest
affords us some faint clue as to its result on Fri-
day afternoon. Already it is sufficiently apparent
however that it will be close enough to render that
ultimate decision up to the close of the fifth day's
vote a matter of positive uncertainty. The Mar-
quis may yet distance the Orator Statesman in the
struggle. Yet before the result of this important
contest can be by any means arrived at—before it
can be known positively whether the most gifted
and remarkable man in the whole Cabinet will be
enabled by his re-election to his former seat as
M.P. for the University of Oxford to take his more
authoritative' seat at the Cabinet council boar]. in
his capacity as HER MAJESTY'S Chancellor of
the Exchequer Lord PALMERSTON as First
Minister of the Crown will have to explain to the
House of Commons the intentions and policy of
the new Government. Before it is understood
whether Mr. COBDEN will consent to accept office
as President of the Board of Trade, before it is
known even whether be will have returned home to
make his choice between the position occupied by
one of the subordinates of the existing Adminis-
tration, or be one of the leaders of the Independent
Opposition, the First Lord of the Treasury has
undertaken to sketch out the design intended to
be realised by his new Coalition Administra-
tion. It is certainly a decision this, to say the
least of it, sufficiently premature and pre-
eiPitate. It; is like planning out a campaign
before the i3ommand assigned to the Generals of
Division heave been distinguished. It is not merely
counting the chickens before they are hatched, but
positively before they are laid. It is a preposterous
anticipation of the nesting as well as of the incuba-
tion. Lord PALMERSTON does not yet know—he
cannot even on Thursday do more than simply con-
joeture—Neh ether or not it is -within his power to
form this lOW Coalition Government. 'Yet on
Thursday he is to take its formation for granted,
and to lay before the House of Commons thv inten-
tions and thi 3 policy of his Administration. Friday
afternoon v hill have to arrive before it can
be definitively known whether the University
of Oxford t ,y consenting to the right hon. gentle-
man's re-el ection will enable the coalition to retain
its intende d Chancellor of the Exchequer. 'When
