Loxpoy, July 4.—[New York Herald Cable —Specinl to the Brr. | —11 it were nec to assume that the elections will continue throughout as they have begun, there would be no doubt that the new parliament would resemble the one just dissolved, the parties occupying the same reiative positions. In that case Mr. Giadstone's biil, as hitherto insisted on by him, could not, ot cotse, be earried, Neither eould any conservative ministry. nor Hartington, or even a coalition ministry, have any length of life. The ses- sion would be stormy, chaotic and brief. Another dissolution and final appeal to th country would soon be necessary. Th gloomy view for Gladstone, however, is not yetabsolutely forced upon us, Thesignificant abstentions from voting on the part of the unionists is on latent strength for e natural leader of the liberal party. Itis 1t that the unionists are liberal betore re tory allies, And there are other grounds for hope amonz the friends of the government, as may be gatliered from a care ful resume of the situation. It is certain that an analysisof yesterany’s returns affords no Dasis upon which ANY PARTY CAN CONC or presume to elaim ult unionists have slightly the b notin the shape of numeri The mere fact of their holding tl own secms to imperil the power of Gladstone’s appeal to the country. To neutralize the recent wmajority of thirty against them in the commons, the adstonel must win fifteen seats. To secure a working majority they need at least twenty- five, and to obtain these they must do better than hitherto. The signiticance of yesterday's elections is that they were fought in constit- uencies supposed to contain the strongest Irish vote. e results indicate either that the size of this Lrish contingency has been overestimated, or thal the abstentions of the English liberals are serious, On2 seat was gamed by the Irish vote in Liverpool, two in Mancheste But, though the Irish wero presumed to ba strong in Preston, Ber enhiead, Bolton and St Helens, they fai to wrest the seat from the unionists, sgn of TULATE 17 nate vietory. of it, tho Mg In ford, where the Giadstoneans five seats, the lrish ly swarn and there ean be no mist about their at le contains more metropoli st Dentford, Irishmen and here not only maintained y inereased their major- ities. Here the transfer of alarge Itish vote from the conservative to the Gladstone side was reckoned on, with assurances to bring about a government vietory. THE CALCULATION WAS 3POTI simply by the liberal abstention from the polls. Taking all the seats yet contested, and comparing the polling with thiat of last No- vember, the popular vote sho net gain of 10,000 for the unionists, a falling off of 15 per cent in the liberel vote, and a falling off of 10 per cent in the tory vote, The total diminu- tion of the vole on both sides causes general astonishment. It is accounted for partly by the shortness of the period allowed for the electoral cam- paign, partly by the usual changes of residence among the workingmen, who have had opportunity tor ter anew, and these nave to lose their votes, and partiy by the ab- stention of liberal votes, as before mentioned., More than to any of these eauses, however, the decreased vote is due to th L, now vealed, that the masses are less interested in this contest than are the educated classes. 1t §s felt by many that Gladstone may have made amistake, in a purely political sense, in basing his appeal to the country too ex- clusively on high wmoral and sentimental grounds, ‘The unionists have taken advant- age of this to appeal to the pockets and stom- achs of the rural elasses, who are nawrally strength in this instan as a district than any othe the unionists Aheir seats, but larg, Gladstone’s allies. 1t tacties like these prove as potent as the union- ist leaders expect, the Gladstonians vresent claim, that yesterday will be contradi; indications ed by the resultsin the agricnltural districts, may too sanguine, Assuming that all the reasonable ealeulations of the conservative-unionists coalition are fultilled, their majority will still be very small, and it is now reported that unless the verdiet of the country is decisively against him. GLADSTONE WILL REMAIN IN OFFICE and introduce, next October, a new home rule bill, The bill is framed in such a way as to at least conciliate the more moderate see- tion of the liveral position, and perhaps en- tirely restore party unity. It is at this erisis that any unfavorable results in the present election may be rendered harmless to the prinelple of home rule, Gladstone has re- peatedly said that it is the prineple and not any particular bill that he Is ighting for, and there are many unionists open to conc! minor poluts.
