Special to the Htt.1 : : If It wore uocessaij

throughout as they have tc un , there would
bo no doubt thai Hits new parliament

Another dissolution and imal appeal to the
country would MIOII bo ntce-Haiy. Tills
gloomy view for ( iladstoup , however , Is not
jet absolutely forced upon IH. Tlioslmilficant
alHtentloiis fiom voting on th | urt of the
unionists Is one s KII of latent strength foi
the natural leader of the llbuial i aity. It Is
evident thattho unionists me llbcial bet ore
they are lory allies And them aio other
pounds lor hope ainoiu the fi lends of the
government , asmay bogathoied fioin a raie-
lul resume of the situation. Itlsceitaln that

01 iiifsuiiu1 to claim ultimate victory. The
unionists have slightly the b'st ol It , though
not In the shape of numerical advant.mo.
The meio fact of tholr holding their own
scorns to ImpelII the powei of ( Hailstone's
appeal to the country. To nciitiall/c the
lecent niajoiHy of tldity against
thorn in the commons , the ( lladstoncltes
must win lilteen scats. To socuio a
working majoilty they need at leist twenty-
fi\e , niidtoohtnln these they must do bottei
than lilthcito. The significance of jestciday's
elections is that they were fought in constit
uencies supposed to contain the strongest
Irish vote. The results indicate either that
the Hi/not this lilsh contingency has been
overestimated , 01 tint the abstentions ol the
Kugllsh liberals aio seilous. Ona scat was
Rained by the Irish vote In Llveipool , and
two In Manchester. But , though the Irish
were presumed to bj strong in I'lestou , licrk-
enhcnd , Holton and St. Helens , they failed
to wrest the scat from the unionists. In Sal-
foul , whore the ( iladstoneans lost
Ii\o seats , the lilsh faiily swaim ,
andthoie cin bo no mistake about theli
hticngth In this instance at least. Dentfoid ,
as a dlstilct , contains moio Iilslimcn
than any other mutiopolls , and heio
the unionists not only maintained
thi'ir MMt-i , but hugely incicascd their inajoi-
itles. Heietho tiausfcr of a laigo Hlsh vote
fiom the con eivatlvo to the Gladstone bide
was reckoned on , with nssmaneos to bilng
about a gov ei niiient vlctoi y.
1111 : C.U.CL'I. vnox WAS si'oii.r.n
Blmply by tlio llhcial abstention horn the
polls. Taking alHho seats jet contested , and
compaiing the polling with that of last No
vember , the nopulai vote shows a net gain ol
10,010 lot the unionist * , n fallingott ot 15 pin
cent In the liberr.l vote , and a falling off ot 10
per cent In the loiy vote. The total diminu
tion of the vote on both skies causes
general astonishment. It is accounted
lor paitly by the Mioitness of the
lipilod allowed for the electoral cam
paign , pailly by the n ual changes of
icsldcnco among the vvoiklngmcn , who Imo
had oppoitmiltj toieglstcr anew , and these
liavo to lose their \otcs , and paitly by the ab-
htcntlon of llbcial \ otes , as bufoin inciitioncd.
Moic than to any of these causes , however ,
the dccieascdoto Is duo to the fact , now IP-
vralcd , that the masses aioless Intoicsted In
this contest than are the educated classes. It
Is foil by many that Gladstone may have
inado a mistake. In n purely political sense ,
in basing his appeal to the countiy too ex
clusively on high moral and sentimental
giounds. The unionists have taken advant-
agn of this to api oil to the pockets and stomachs
achs of thermal classes , \vho are naunally
( iladslono's allies. It tactics like these
prove as potent as the union
ist leadeis expect , the Glndstonlans
tuesent claim , that yesterday's Indications
will be conliadlctcd by the results in the
iigilciiltuial distilcts , may bo too singulnc.
Assuming that all the reasonable calculations
of the conseMatlvc-tinlonlsts coalition are
fulfilled , their majority will htill bo very
small , and It Is now icpoitrdthat unless the
vpidlct of the countiy Is decisively azalust
him.

to at least conciliate the moro moderate sec

that any unfavorable results In the present
election may bo lendeicd harmless to the
principle of homo ink . Gladstone has ro-
peaicdly said that It is the pilneiplo and not

The ttlals ol Heinilt and Cliiisticiiacn , who
