AYLESBURY.

The following were the numbers at the close of the
poll :

Bernard ... ... ... 546
Bethel! ... 501
Layard ... ... 439
The official proclamation was made on the steps of the
County-hall, immediately after the termination of the
polling.

The two successful candidates having briefly returned
thanks,
Mr. LAYABD came forward and said,—Gentlemeo,—
It now becomes my duty to take leave of you, and to
thank you for the support which you have given me on
past occasions, and the confidence with which you have
honoured me during the last five years. I have also to
thank those who have supported me, though unsucceql-
fully, I am sorry to say ; but if I was to lose your confi-
dence, and any one was to be placed in my stead, you
could not have chosen a better, a more trustworthy mar,
or one more worthy of your confidence than Mr. Ber-
nard. Without making any personal observations, as
the defeated candidate I may be allowed to express my
opinion as to the reasons which have led to the result of
this election. I attribute the return of my friend, Mr.
Bernard, whose principles are Conservative, to two
causes—first, to the fatal move made by Lord Palmer.
ston. I was always of opinion that the course taken
by Lord Palmerston would lead to the triumph of Tory
principles in many parts of England. The reports to-
day from many boroughs in this kingdom show that
these apprehensions were well founded. In many parts
a Liberal has been sacrificed to a Tory, because a
man whose heart is at enmity with all liberal
principles will not fail to sacrifice a Liberal member. I
do not often agree with Mr. Disraeli, but I do agree
with him when he said that Lord Palmerston is the
Tory chief of a Radical Cabinet. I much fear the re-
sult will have a bad effect on the political state of the
country until we have a new Parliament. I know my
friend, Mr. Bernard, has taken ari vantage of the cry for
Lord Palmerston, and he is perfectly right. Ido not
believe he would support Lord Palmerston if he brings
forward liberal measures, but he will support him be-
cause be will bring forward measures in accordance with
his own Conservative opinions. Mr. Lava rd, in con-
clusion, complained bitterly of undue influence having
been brought to bear upon the electors.

The town was in a great state of excitement through,
out the day, vast numbers of people flocking in from
distant towns and crowding the streets ; but there WWI
no violence or disorder.
After the close of the poll the successful candidates
addressed a large concourse of people in front of the
Albion Hotel, Piccadi'ly, and were received with great
cheering.
Sir J. POTTER, in returning thanks, said he was un-
able to state the exact figures, but it was quite certain
that Mr. Turner and himself hadP been elected by over-
whelming majorities. (Cheers.) There could be no mis-
take as to the opinion of that great electoral body. At
the same time they would not go to Parliament to repre-
sent any particular clique. They were fully sensible of
the high honour that had been conferred upon them, and
hoped to show it by a faithful endeavour to discharge
the duties imposed upon them. (Cheers.)
Mr. J. A. TURNER also returned thanks, and hoped
that, now the coutest was eecided, every feeling of un-
kindness one, animosity which might have existed among
different parties would subside. (Cheers.) He should go
into Parliament to serve all his constituents, whether
they bad voted for him or not. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. M. GrliSON addressed his friends at Newall's-
buildiegs after his defeat, and thanked them for the
kindness with which he had been received by them dur-
ing the 15 years he had represented Manchester. He
bore no resentment to those who had thought fit to differ
from him, and for the future, whether in Parliament or
out of it, be should always be glad to work for the in-
terests of Manchester.
•
Mr. VAUGHAN then spoke on behalf of his brother-in-
law, Mr. B-ight, who, he said, would feel disappointed,
not on his own behalf, but because the people of Man-
cheater had deserted those great principles to which he
was attached.
Thete were calls for Mr. Alderman Watkins, but he
declined to speak ; addressee, however, were delivered
by Messrs. Joseph Simpson and Thomas Cooper, who
said that they were not disheartened by the result of the.
election. A large number of persons who were unable
to gain admissioa called for Mr. Gibson to address them

BODMIN.

The nomination for this borough took place in the
Guildhall on Friday. The candidates were four in num-
ber :—Dr. Michell, one of the late members; Mr. Wyld,
who represented the borough previous to 1852 ; the
Hon. Captain Vivian, and Mr. J. Harvey Lewis.
Dr. MICHELL said he was a Liberal, and an indepen-
dent supporter of Lord Palmerston's Government, with
which he bad voted in the division on the China qoee-
tion. He referrtd to his constant attendance at the
House, having voted since returned in 1852 in 720 divi-
sions. He was infavour of a more equitable adjustment of
the income tax; was opposed to the grant to Maynooth,
and to the voting of public money for the religious
teaching of any particular sect, or for any local improve.
ment ; would vote for the ballot carried out in the same
way as in America, France, or Belgium, and was a
strenuous advocate of administrative reform.
Mr. WILD, although he deprecated the great powers
now vested in our commanders abroad, was a supporter
of Lord Palmerston. He opposed the application of
the State money to any particular sect ; was in favour
of administrative reform, of vote by ballot, and of a sys-
tem of education based on the Scriptures—voluntary as
far as possible, but carried out where necessary by the
State.

Captain VIVIAN was also an Administrative Reformer
and a Liberal. He was a strenuous supporter of Lord
Palmerston's Government, and was strongly opposed in
feeling to Mr. Gladstone and the Tractarian party. He
was in favour of the application of public money to those
great improvements essential to the health of the poorer
classes.

Mr. LEWIS was also strongly in favour of Lord Pal-
merston, not only for his foreign policy, but his Protes-
tant tendencies, which bad been well indicated by his
late appointment of bishops. He was a warm advocate
of the ballot, and of national education ; was opposed to
the Maynooth grant or any other of the kind, and should
support a more equitable adjustment of the income tax.
The show of hands was declared to be in favour of Mr.
Lewis and Mr. Wyld. A poll was demanded on behalf
of the other candidates.

the demand does not improve. In prices, however, very
little change has taken place. The imports last week were
95 tons from Tennessee, 3 bags from Gottenburg, 424 bags
from Rotterdam, 51 from Belfast, and 154 bags 3 sacks
from Limerick.

LONDON, MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1867.

Altogether: the Elections are going gloriously.
The cities and boroughs alone having already
given Ministers a clear majority of Twenty! So
that, even now, Lord PALMERSTON has his com-
pensation for the obnoxious Sixteen !
The Manchester School Leaders have been
"bowled down" like so many Nine-pins ! That
is the principal feature in the returns already
received. Manchester itself has nobly vindicated
its patriotism—having thrown off scornfully the
champions of that miserable and most un-English
policy, of which Mr. JOHN BRIGHT and Mr. MIL
NER. GIHSoN were the vaunted exponents. Hud-
dersfield has, if that be possible, still more sig-
nally repudiated any complicity whatever with
that PIMO most despicable and de-nationalising
policy—the policy which successively became the
apologist, first of all of Russian, and afterwards of
Chinese barbarism.

Mr. COBDEN, it will be remembered, want:a to
sell the Ministry for 2,000,000/. ! wen,
be
licit for
has been sold, "regularly sold," himself,
2,000,000/., but for 246 !—the majority by
which his supporters wore outnumbered by those
of the rival candidate ! Perhaps no political cli_
feat of modern times has, in its way, hc'n
more ignominious. We speak of the
occurrence, we think of Mr. COBDEN, we
refer to his downfall, at this moment, more in
grief than in indignation. There is something
despicable, of course, in striking a man, still more
in kicking a man, when he is prostrated in the
very dust. We have no inclination to retort
upon Mr. COBDEN his own indecent scurrilities--
the scurrilities with which he outraged the public
mind very recently upon a public platform in the
City of Manchester. We recognise in him at this
;nstant a man who is down—who is profoundly

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—{'his Day.)

Business
this day

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Fa.ne.)
THE HEMEL HEMPSTEAD AND WATFORD BANK.

IN RE SMITH.

This Bankrupt was described as of Hemel Hemp-
stead and Watford, banker, formerly in partnership with
Mr. Wbittingstail, deceased, and carrying on business
as bankers at the Hemel Hempstead and Watford Bank,
and to-day was appointed for his last examination.
Mr. Linklater appeared for the assignees ; Mr. Law-
rence for the executors of Mr. Whittingstall ; and Mr.
Murray for defendant. _ .

Sporting Intelligence.

After a long discussion, Mr. Linklater said that the
accounts were insufficient, and required a statement of
affairs at the time of the death of Mr. Whittingstall, in
March last, and a liquidation account from that time
up to the time of the bankruptcy. An adjournment was
then taken for one month for that purpose. •
London, England, 1857-01-02

COLONIAL.

TEA.—There has been but little disposition shown on
the part of holders of this article to sell at present prices,
and the delivery of the letters by the Overland Midi has
not occasioned any change in values. Common *mon
realised 114,1 to 11:2(1 per lb.
Suasll.—There is a good private demand for all kind,
and rates for both colonial and foreign have advanced
about is per cwt on the terms current at the close of the
market on the 24th ult. The opinion generally expressed
with regard to the future prospects of the trade is very
favourable.

COFFEE.—There have been large private transactions in
both native and plantation Ceylon, and prices aro is to 2s
per cwt. in advance of those current last week. The stocks
as compared with those at the commencement of last year
are much smaller.
RICE.—The stocks on hand are large, but prices rule
firm. The expectation that before long there will be e
falling off in the imports has tended to cause firmness in
prices.
SPICES.—There has been a rather better demand, mut
prices rule steady for pimento, pepper, nutmegs, mace,
and ginger.
Rust.— This article has been in good demand, at full
rates. Good Demerara brought 2s 100, and Leeward*
2s fid per proof gallon.
TALLOW.—The market has been rather quiet, and the
stocks being likely to decrease to some extent prices rule
steady. I P.Y.C. on the spot and for spring delivery, Ca fict
to 58s ; May and June, 51s ; last three months, 52e U.
Australian mutton, 56s to 58s ; best, 54s to 56a ; and
South American, 54s to 58s per cwt.
GREEN FRUIT.—The demand continues good, the holi-
days and mild weather assisting consumption. Oranges
have improved in value ; 3,000 packages from the Azores.
Seville, Lisbon, and Sicily, sold by Keeling and Hunt at
public sale, went at an advance of is to 2s per package;
Lemons are dull, but as the remaining crop has Buff... Till
