The British Empire is stirred By the first pulsa-
lions of great Election contest The House OF
c. mmons has censuIed the course pursued by the
British officials at Canton in the case Of the lorcha
Arrow and its consequences, and Lord PalmerstOn
has thereupon dissolved Parliament and appealed
10 the constituencies. The new elections will take
place forthwith and the veteran Premier calculates
with confidence on triun ph which shall signally
rebuke the coalition of Tories and Radicals By
which be was defeated, and confirm his possession
of power for as many years as he can DESIRE a. bis
advanced sge, to hold the reins.
Whatever may be the result, so far a' the Minis
ty is concerned, this election will do little for the
cause of Political Progress. Lord PalmerstOn
came into public life about fifty years ago an OK
treme Tory and was an unfinchlng supporter
of whatever was worst, most despotc and corrupt
in the rule Of Casteressh and the Tories Of the first
quarter of the present century. He joined the
Wings at the era of the Reform Bill agitation, and
has since adhered TO their standard bus is just 90
far Liberal a. Wing Minister must be-no far
ther. He votes with the most bigoted Tories against
any further extension Of Suffrage or Equality of Rep
rest ntation-against Church Reform in any shape
agsinss Retrencbment and against the Ballot. His
Premiership is, IN fact the chief present obstacle
to the triumph Of any Reform Whatever; since
Members enough are in Office under him or con-
neeted by some tie with his administration 20 give,

Britain would have truly Liberal Pary-toe Up

If there is to DO any speedy triumph Of Liberalism
in England, it must be secured through the defeat
and retirement of the " Liberal Ministry.
The first political and social want Of Great
Britain is system of Popular Education; an E1-

Ballot and Equ.l Districts for representation in
Parliament are only secondary to these in import

return Of the Liberal party to power affer season
Of Tory sscen6ency. The triumph Of Paluerston
in the elections ct band would be an indefinite post
tenement Of this wholesome and necessary process.
We shall rejoice, therefore, to chronicle his defeat

"SportiDg men " is the dainty phrase BY which
Geographic dispatch cbaracterises two persons
who yesterday undertook to drive their rival horses
one hundred miles without food or rest, starting
from Albany at a. IN. and going west to Wbites-
town, beyond Utics. The frogs in ono Of Esop's
fables reminded the boys who were stonins them
that what was sport to one party was death TO the
Other; and it seems TO US that the laws of any hu-
name and Christian people ought to punish severely
the cruel wretohes who could plan and drive suchs
race as this.
