ItOMMCNIC.tTED,

THE RECENT ELECTION. The details OF last
Tuesdays contest are sufficient to confirm the
expectations IF those who esteem party tcalty
and party organic itiOn above personal or private
desires for places Of trust, and announce, be-
You'd doubt. the election Of the regular nOlul
nee Of the Conservative party. The decision
must be cOntcS-cd not only deserved cDmpIl-
ment to the successful candidate, but as a res9-
lutte disposition on the part Of the Conservative
party to support its identity and organization
for the establishment of specific political prin-
ciplrs The ID ,mocratlc party has proclalEed
that it neither seeks nor needs Influence with
the administrator; but is determined to put
out of power aud patronage, the Radical parry,
aud to become itself the administration The
face Of fortune wears this appearance for the
Conservative party. and all it has to d" Is to
be true to its professions, and patient in It's et-
forts, to deport Itself with proper caution aud
dig1ity in order to merit and obtain the need
of prosperity aud honor which the near future
has in store for it, The result Of the election
in this Congressional district IL wise aad op-
perfume OiubinatiOu OF many omcuS OF future
good; ADD at this time, more than al any other,
it is exceedingly fortunate TO have the advau-
tage of sending Gcu. Hnnton back to Congress
to greet his old and familiar conductors IN de-
Lucrative opposition to the maleasance aud
misteaSauce OF r tdical prrdominancc in the
official places of honor. dignity, and response
billy His character, cautious speech, and
honest votes, will be an acquisition TO the
northern democracy, aud III him they will al
ways ind true aud faithful ally, who will not
obsruct rheir pIaus by az otficious interference
With their dc>l gus. or cIubarrasS their action by
a tarIy assistance in their efforts to restore the
operations OF the government to the standard
o! good to the many without dctrmcnt aud op
preston to the few Therefore, the recent cleo
ton is credit to the Conservative party; and
it has taught lesson that the majority Of the
party kept the usage and liberty Of making its
own selection of a candidate regardless of the
cIamor OF those VINO deemed the claims OF their
f4vorites for office superior TO the Judgment OF
the mass of the party. Blu, the contest is now
over; and let the fricudIy strife that marked II
be buried and forgotten in future united action;
and let the people Of our beloved South do
nothing that is not worthy Of them; and with
out the tumult Of victory, and the pageantry
of triumph, quietly watch the coming OF the
approaching success of the northcru democracy,
and calmly await that reception Of their reward
with the manner of dientiea qualification. }.

day, in the case OF Sprott versus the Uditcd
States, the court affirmed judgment OF the
Court of Claims, holding that the claimant, a

ALEXANDRIA, November Q.

1.-THE Lord Mayors Day" in Loudon, was
duly and appropriately celebrated yesterday,
the festivities concluding with grand banquet
at Guild Hall, among the distinguished persons
present being Disrael Lord Cairns, Earl Der
by, Marquis of Salisbury, Sir Stafford North
cote and others. The Lord Mayor gave the
usual toast to her Majesty's Minister'S. Mr..
Disraeli responded, and referred to the tran
guilty England had enjoyed for the last six
years. The reasons we're not far to seek. The
people were DOW contentnd. The working
classes of Great Britiau Inherited rights and
privileges not yet possessed by the nobility OF
other lands. They had no fear of arbitrary
Ministers and domciliary visits They pos
sessed the right to combine for the protection
of the interests of labor. Justice was pure, aud
no respccter of individual classes. Although
the service of the sovereign was open to all, 20
one was liable to be dragged unwilngly from
his home employment. 1t was not wonderful
that nation possessed of such privileges wish
ed to preserve them. Under such clrcum-
stances was it to be wondered at that the work
ing classes we're conservative? He looked
back to the last session of Parliament with sat
isfaction, but avoided making any political
forecast. AS far as the present was concerned
the country had seldom been more prosperous.
He had good authority for stating there was a
considerable revival of trade and great promise
of increased commercial transactions and that
the public revenues would realize all the Gov
ernment anticipated. He praised Lord North
cote, Viceroy of India, and the Marquis Of Sails
hurry, Indian Secretary,for their sagacityn deal
ing with the famine in India. Referring to the
rece ut outcry for separation Of the coloules he
distinctly declared himself 10 favor of the main
tenance of the integrity Of the Empire. Oh
this policy the annexation of the FIJI Islands
was a proof Government was resolved to
consolidate the Empire aud establish identity
of interest and sympathy with the colonies.
He thanked the French Ambassador for the
friendly sentiments expressed when replying to
the toast Of the diplomatic body. Although it
would be trifiug with the truth to assert that
the state of the Continent showed no cause for
anxiety, yet the Government believed in the
maintenance Of peace for which all the great
powers were anxious MIR. Dlsracli, on taking
hts seat was loudly applauded.
