Four s « at » we ttftf _r _« _ttfat ; by _ijecrees against St . Albatia _aad ' for Oklham h _^ been Mr . _DuncuftvViticyiife _ parties are s _^ _ll _egg _^^ _antl gams ; Jh _^ m _^ - — _" _""" _truBtwMtUjf . <* _MXdta _be _« Ma > t _^ t « hout _baJa _^ bect _^ Peelites ; but it is evident that _sucI _^ _'Winioii s cannot be counted on . The probability is , that all strong conclusions will be prevented , at _Jeast on first starting ; and it is evident that any : of the three parties might combine to veto the special conclusions of the fourth . The _mediocrity which prevails will also tend to discountenance positive conclusions . Thus we may look for a dull session , until the very confusion of parties shall have emboldened some and exasperated all ; and then the struggles for place will give some interest to the scene . ||| .
Rumours are rife ; the favourite being one of a coalition between Russell , Graham , and Aberdeen — - " with Cobden , of course ? " cries the Freetrader . Possibly . The four allies would cause some trouble both to Ministers and to a really Liberal opposition , if events do not arouse a more national spirit . Already , however , the number of politicians who are looking out for a national , in _contradistinction to a party Minister , is rapidly increasing .
The after-dinner speeches of the elections have heen scanned for further ligl _result . scanned for further lights ; but without Mr . _lU-resford has half recanted his " rahhle" denunciations , but too late to retrieve his character ; and his declarations as to the necessit y of securing "justice" to the agriculturist , only couiirm us in the belief that the ( _Jlovernlne . ut generally is not in Mr . Disraeli ' s confidence _, _^ ir John Tyrell says that justice is to be wrung from " the lute rulers of the country ; " Mr . _'• crcsford says tluit it is to consist of compensation to the farmer , " the sum" of whose losses by Free-trade is to be " reimbursed ; " Mr . Disraeli having announced that he does not rely on compensation . Hut Mr . Beresford ' s great work is still the com pa 8 itionofthatmysteriouslettcr , _signed"W _, 13 . " [ Country Edition . ]

which took Mr . Frail to Deiby , and _iiirriished Sir James Graham with' so liunlourouir ' a subject . Mr . 'Beresford promises to seek aiid give explanations in the House of Commons ; but _meanwhile , though , denying any case of " bribery , * ' he does not deny the note . On the whale , 3 & r . _fieresford has been signally ' successful in damajging the Government to which he belongs ; - bi _^^ aH _^ _nis _^ discreditable . -associations , cannot supersede the ' crucial test _fVjrhieh the public is nem _ '' awaiting—the value of Disraeli ' s _financial'ineasures . . Among political prognosl ; ics however , two arc furnished % r : . Sir _|^ _i _(^ _GraTiam' _^ -. jocose as his _' _fys _^^ _jtomvtib _^^ He declared that the _evetrts of the electidn _^ had _removal nwlny of his fears as to the spread of democracy ; as well they may . * If we contrast the choice of & e nonelectors - with that of the electors , we shall not account the-possessors of the franchise as the best qualified to exercise it . Or if we contrast the conduct of people ' s men , like William Newton , with that of high Tories , like William Beresford , we shall not be impressed with the superior dignity of the elected . Sir James ' s conclusion ; s so natural that he might very well have attained to it some time back ; but better late thau never .
His Other declaration is conveyed in the shape of a warning , that the demand for the ballot will become universal : we have already stated the progress which that subject has made in the agricultural counties . Probably Sir James may now be reckoned among the supporters of the ballot . The vacancy at _Oldhum may furnish an opportunity to a popular constituency , of retrieving the errors of the late election , to the extent at least of one scat . The electors ought not twice to miss the opportunity of sending a people ' s man to the House of Commons . There ( ran be no doubt that candidates of good calibre will come forward ; but we would urge the electors to select the hest . We want fresh men in the House of Commons , who can speak out for tin : industrious classes , not indirectly or on rare occasions and bookish reforms , . but always , on all subjects , and especially on those which the working classes themselves have most at heart . The conduct of Oldham will be watched with great interest . . Iu Church matters , too ; remarkable demonstrations have just been made . By the method of electing proctors at a diocesan synod of Oxford , to serve in convocation , Bishop Wilberforce has taken some obvious steps towards reviving active

proceedings ih . _convocation , and so making the Church o _^ _^ _glana once more a self-governing body . Afrtn _^ sanW tim e , in the Irish capital , Archbishop _Whtttely explains to the Protestant clergy of h « province " , ' how the anti-papal movement was a quackish antidote agamst an imaginary aggression , leaving untouched the real _danger _^ -the backsliding of men within the Church to Rome . Men flinch frpm realities , otherwise Dr . Whately ' s broad , logical avowal of the truth would be of immense practical service to ibe Glmrch . , _^ ' The n * w Empire is looming large in ' France . Old Marshal Excehnans is snatched away by a cruel accident , ft -fir * _always sad to see ft man who has survived so many _$ < w _£ ous _danger _^ _kjlJgL at last on the common road by a faft from _fys horse : but he has departed opportunely : having fought by the side of the first Emperor , he is not spared to dance attendance on a second . General Gourgaud died under a cloud of something like disfavour : he was suspected of fidelity to the House of Orleans .
Last week we had a peaceful passage of the Rhine : this week we have the text of a very serious treaty signed by the three great Powers , emphatically discountenancing the imperial designs of the Adventurer : tolerating , perhaps , an elective Emperor , but only on sharply defined conditions : absolutely refusing to acknowledge , under threat of " ulterior measures , " any hereditary interference with the " divine right" of M . lc Comtc de Chambord . To this document nothing of solemnity is wanting : not even the Trinity : and the nations may fairly take a leaf out of the book of these three Kings , who bend all minor differences to the great common principle of dynastic safety . The " divine right" dormant is not _dend . It is resident in parti / ms . that is all . Louis Napoleon will at least be monumental : great public works ave the one enduring legacy of despotism . Meanwhile the Army is " straining in the slips , " caressed and excited by . souvenirs , and befooled by triumphal progresses from u railwaystation to St . Cloud . nil rls
Lord Malmesbury begins to be felt in pu of Europe . Did we not say that the British subject was to he the cockshy of Kurope ? This Aveek we have to record a British Consul insulted by an unmannerly letter of the Papal Governor at _Aiiconii : a British Protestant missionary siniimnnly deprived of his school and his pupil * , driven helpless mto the street , in spite of solemn treaties , at Naples : two British subjects bastinadoed in Turkey .
