THE CONSERVATIVE MAJORITY IN THE NEW

PARLIAMENT.

The conservatives have, up to the present time, achieved
an ajimitted gain of 2 to 1 over their opponents, their gain
being 72, and that of the liberals 36. This of itself is quite
sufficient to give Sir It. Peel a decisive majority, but in order
to show the cheering aspect of affairs, we subjoin the follow-
ing statement of the gross returns, as made up to Tuesday
evening, which appeared in the leading gOvernment journal
of yesterday. This return at once proves that the whig mi-
nisters are " done for."—

But the above accoutst shows only a return of 604 members
to the new parliament, leaving 54 still to be returned. Now,
even allowing the liberals to have the benefit of the whole of
these 54 members, what would be the result of the election ?
Why, that the conservatives would have a majority of at least
32 votes ! The numbers would then be as follow :—Conser-
vatives, 345 ; liberals, 313 ; conservative majority—Thirty-
/zoo i
But will the liberals obtain even 25 out of the above 54
members ? Even allowing them two-thirds, which would
give
re
the liberals 36, and the conservatives 18 members, the

This latter result is most likely to be the correct one. The
whigs are irretrievably ruined, and Sir Robert Peel will enter
office as Prime Minister of Great Britain with a majority of
nearly SEVENTY •rotes ! But let the conservtives not remain
apathetic. Let them act according to the advice of their
leader, and—regit ;ter ! register register !
