THE DISSOLUTION OF PARLIAMENT AND
THE COMING ELECTIONS.

THE London Observer, a paper generally well in-
formed with respect to Court movements, contains
the following as the arrangements made for the
dissolution of Parliament, and the issuing of the

writs :

Parliament will be prorogued, in the usual form, by her
.ajesty in person, on Thursday next, July Ist.

Immediately after the prorogation, a royal proclamation
will be issued, declaring the present parliament to be
dissolved.

The writs will be sent out directly, returnable in the
month of August, somewhat before the usual time,
consequence of the recent act to that effect.
The new parliament, however, will probably
called together for the " despatch of busines
middle of October

before the

Her Majesty will hold a Privy Council on Wednesday,
at Buckingham Palace, at which the speech from the
throne will be submitted for the approval of the Sovereign ;
and the royal proclamation will be settled for the dissolu-
tion of parliament.
On Saturday, the court will leave London for the season,
and will proceed to Osborne-house, Isle of Wight, where
the Queen and Prince Albert will remain for some days,
previous to the visit of her Majesty to her residence in
Scotland. Orders have been given to have the Queen's
yacht, Victoria and Albert, ready for use by the 3d July.
From the best information at which we have
been able to arrive, it appears probable that Liver-
pool will be one of the first places at which the
contest will be brought to an issue ; and the writ
will most likely be in the hands of the M
returning officer, on Saturday morning. The no-
mination will probably be fixed for Thursday, the
sth of July, and the polling will take place on the
following day—Friday.

The electors have, therefore, have but little time
to spare for getting themselves in readiness to enter
upon one of the most important contests in which
we have ever been engaged. Lord DERBY'S Go-
vernment will he greatly strengthened by the
decision of Liverpool being recorded in its favour.
A voice of approbation from this great commercial
community will ring through the empire like a
trumpet call. A defeat here will be felt as a seri-
ous blow dealt against the principle of constitutional
Government, against Monarchy, against national
industry, and against the Protestant Institutions of
our land. Earnestly, then, we call upon the Con-
servative electors to be active, vigilant, and resolved
to place their candidates, Messrs. MACKENZiE and
TURNER, triumphantly at the head of the poll. Let
us be content with no measuring cast majority ! We
have the power, if every man amongst us will act
as if the issue of the contest depended upon his
individual vote and exertions. Above all, we urge
each, when he has recorded his own vote, readyandlieto
