THE EXAMINER, :

lia eel aa — a an It is pretty evident that the general cleetion will, after all, half-castes their resuscitate party feeling in a becoming energy ; for in Liver- t SU i bet ¥ »! ° > . nool, where there was.a strong local motive for letting wel! DOO, Lad : 3 ‘

’ nough alone, the adverse flags have been ostentatiously ult

furied. The talk was, that the next parliament will be, as} noar as possible, an antagonistic one, Conservative vs. Liberal . that a few on either side will effect an alliance with Lord Palmerston, but that*his lordship, if he remains in oflive, will have to choose on ally in either, party; that with his own proper farce he eannot challenge a single division; that the present parliament, owing to its origin, coustant changes aad long endurance, was undefiped in its principles and uncertain | iu its impulses; that-management ‘was, therefore, possible,

and was suggested by the varicties of war and peace, and

that no one was more adroit in playing one party against ®n- | other than the prosent premier; that want of fixedness of purpose, however, destroyed miuisterial discipline, and that,

in Consequence, we have now an appeal to the country ; that the new government will have the charm of freshness about it and the solidity of unassailed honesty; that the Relormers are up and so are the Conservatives; that the candidates mast, with few exceptions, be for one and against the other ; | that the spirit of the age is latent in the majority, and that the Derbyites will find themselves, when mustered for a di- vision in the House of Commons, in the minority; that no one need doubt this; that at the last election Lord Derby was in power; that he had the entire bencfit of the influence | of office, and that the Conservative feeling was never so strong | —Cohseryative efforts never more energetic ; that notwith- standing all this he failed to create a majority ; that his chance now is iofinitely less, and that Mr. Disraeli’s advocacy of re- treuchment deludes a0 one; that the world is incredulous of popular promises from his party ; that between Conservatives and Liberals the line of demareation is too difficult to be passed; that the Liberals are the majority in the country, and that although there is no rallying ery, Liberal votes will be given to Liberal candidates; that Lord Palmerston is the man to appreciate the result, and that before June next he will probably surround himself with colleagues adequate to new exigencies, and representatives of the scattered Liberal

whole adherents would nat reach to more | than 500. All the other inhabitants are naturally their enemies, and the Chinese, who form eight-tenths of the | population, threaten the Kuropeans with fire and pillage. They have affixed several plaeards in the Chinese Janguuge, | offering 200 piastres for the head of the governor, the re- | sident, the judge, and the chief of the police. On the 2ad) of January all shops svere closed, and. the work-people re- fused all assistance=to the uropeans. The public markets

| Were withont supplies, and all business was suspended: But

resistance was not only passive. Phe provisions destined for foreigners were intercepted, and menace and. intimidation were employed to hinder their sale. The head of the police having induced one of the merchants to open his stores, the Chinese rushed ex masse on the traitor, and in the melee many of the police were dangerously wounded. By the energy displayed on the occasion by the governor, he suc- ceeded in establishing order in the town.

Tae New Paenirorenriany For Ourna.—-(From the Times.)—The Eral of Elgin has accepted. the. office to the Court of Pekin, and will proceed on his ardnons mission as soon as he has made himself’ sufficiently acquainted with the views of her Majesty’s Government.

It would not. be easy to name a more unexceptional man for the office, or even one with so many positive recommenda- tions. It is a service both of difficulty and danger that he has undertaken.

When the Commander-in-Chief, General Pennefather, has made the proper dispositions, and is ready for an advance, the British Plenipotentiary will, we suppose, invite the Km- peror to a peaceful settlement of affairs. It has been insinu- ated that we ought not to have taken advantage of an hour of distress to press our claims, but it is the imperial crisis itself which has brought on the rapture,

Commissioner Yeh having notoriously presumed on his security from imperial control, the Plenipotentiary will have to deal, then, not only=with the Emperor and his mandarins, but with his insolent viceroys, and with a rebellion almost everywhere victorious

and Peelite influences.

[t is undeniable that Lord Palmerston has the country with him. Everywhere members who voted against the government of Lord Palmerston on the Chinese difficulty have been taken seriously to task by their constituents, and alt male gut a strong plea for their conduct, in numerous instances this has not satisfied the irritated feelings of the clectors.

Lord John Hussell has been less fortunate. Representing the greatest commeretal constituency in the empire, he has given them such deadly offence that they were anxious to se- cure the services of Lord Palmerston instead ; but the present Premier knows well how fleeting popularity is, and he pru- dently declined to change his geat for the insignificant borough of Tiverton for the great trading community on the banks of the Thames. There was tact in this, and something more— delicacy towards a fallen rival. The city of London then proedaded to choose four candidates, leaving out Lord John Russell — an indication of feeling which it is impossible to wistake, It was supposed that Lord John would have keenly felt this indiguity, awd that he would, in consequence; retire unon one of the pocket boroughs of his brother, the Duke of Hedford. But Lord John Russeil possesses great moral courage, and has addressed to the electors a document, setting forth the principal acts of his political life, with a view of claiming ibeir suffrages on the proper océasion. If defeated, the probability is, that he will retire front publie life in dis- gust, and that this alternative is before him, is evident from the wautof sympathy which pervades the clectoral body to- wards a man who, for more than forty years, has played a leading part on the stage of British polities;

The Peelites suffered severely at the last_general election, and their number uow s6 wach thinned, is In s fair way of being still further diminished in the new Parliament. The ** Manchester Party,” properly so called, will also lose ground. Mr. Cobden gives up one of the most important coustituencies, the West Riding, for a Lancashire Borough.

It is difficult to say what kind of result the eleetions in Ireland may produce. The eountry is prosperous, the people are contented, agitation is lulled, and party ties are broken up to an extent anknown during the last quarter of a century. The influence of the priesthood has received a serious check, it is said, by a mandate from Rome, desiring them to abstain from wixing themselves up in political movements; and all the fiery spirits who bad a hold on Irish sympathies have dis- appeared from the stage. The popularity of the Premier has penetrated into Scotland, where the burghe for the most part are favorable to the poliey which has compelled the dissolution, Altogether, a survey of the battle-field, judging from the tone of the press and the feeling of the constituencies, secures a triumph to the First. Minister.

The present Speaker, Mr. Shaw Lefevre, has informed the House of Commons that he intends to retire from the chair at the end of the present Parliament, a position which he has filled with great credit and marked ability during the last eighteen years. He will get the customary reward of the men who have preceded him im thesame position—a handsome

The continental news presents nothing remarkable. The Corps de Legislative in France hesitates to give Louis N apo- leon.an additioual tax upon railways; and it is believed that the proposition will be withdrawn or rendered harmless by modification, The Neufehatel question is still unsettled.

THE CHINA WAR.

Hoxa Kone, January 15.—The Roglish Admiral, Sir Michael Seymour, abandoned on the 12th instant the posi- tion he had taken up in the old garden of the factories. He decided, after having blown down the Dutch Folly, which had been the centre of his operations against the town, to confine himself to the occupation of the fort known as the Rird's Nest Fort. Before quitting his entrenchments the Admiral set fire to the faubourgs extending from the west to the south-east of the factories. This measure, by isolating the walled-town, renders it more exposed to the bombs of the squadron. The rebel fleet has joined the Imperial fleet, in

assembled in the river. The Chinese appear determined to |

obstruct all the passa by sinking j tend he Ge ath, sinking junks on the numerous

On the 13th the anchorage of Whampoa Was abandoned by all the foreigners, The cuca which towed, under the protection of the ships of war, the

floating dwellings of the English and i i in vice when the Chinese began to ewe, had baa left in the docks, and in the houses built on the banks of the river, without distinction of nationality, Hong Kong is in a state of great excitement, which increases every day. The foreign residents have organised themselves, and their patrols shoot, without pity, every Chinaman who appears in the streets or on the roofs after eight in the evening, At the departare of the courier all the Europeans in Hong Kong appeared to be poisoned, and the family of Sir John Bow. ring, especially, were suffering very severely. All the Chinese bakers have fled. It is believed they intended to poison every foreigner. Fortunately, there has been, as yet, no deaths.

Avago at Sinearore—A i raz Europeans TuReatenep Wwita Fire any Pittace.—The European colony of Singa- pore is in a state of consternation ia nee of the news received from Canton, and the excitement of the native population. Of the 100,000 inhabitants of Singapore there are only 300 Europeans capable of bearing arms, and witb

It is likely enough, therefore, that circumstances will arise which may require great diseretion, temper, and even Pirage _—Should Lord Elgin meet with success, his will be a singular Jot and av unique glory in achieving two great works of recon- ciliation so wide apart, and under such various circumstances.

A Russian corps of 8,000 men had been enthusiastically received at Tabriz. The Persian army, which has to operate against the Affghans, has, it is said, been reinforced. Russia is indeavouring to oceupy Khanaf, with the view of extending her frontiers to the English possessions. The Sovereign of Bokhara, alarmed at these projects of jnvasion on the part of Russia, had solicited the mediation of the Sultan to’have the independence of Khouxhand respected.

The French Government journal, the Patric, states tha‘ accounts from the frontiers of China received at St. Peters- burgh, and published by the Journal of the Academy. announces that the Government of Pekin is in a state of dissolution ; that the Emperor has no eash, aud is forced to issue ¢ron coin; that all the monied men had left the City ; aud that the Chinese mandarins are in hostility.

Hamittox, C. W., March 12th. Dreaprct Rartroap Accipent 1x Canada—Senious Loss or larr.---Another of thdése fearful accidents which human forethought appears inadequate to the task of preventing, teok place this evening, near this City, The train from

| Toronto which is due at 5,45 bad scarcely touched the swing bridge over the Desjardive canal, when it gave way, and the}

whole train was precipitated into the water, falling a distance of 40 feet. The Engine Tender and Baggage-Cars were all completely buried in the water ; the forward passenger ear in descending was turned upside down, leaving but little of it above the water; the forward end of the last passenger car rested upon cither the engine or passenger car, and falling back upon ‘the wall supporting the Bridge, remained in an upright position. Immediate assistance was rendered from the differeut shops and persons engaged on the works; all that were in the last car were taken out mostly wounded, and we are sorry to say, i00 many dead; a hole was cut in the bottom of the car which lay across the canal, and the bodies taken from it as soon as possible. Dut this could not. be otherwise than a slow operation when it was considered how cold the water is at this scason of the year, and that the depth was sufficient to hide an engine tender and baggage cars from view.

Mr. Mair, the traffic superintendent, was on board, but fortunately was in such a position at the time as allowed him to jump on terra firma as the car took the leap into the fright- ful abyss, where somany of his fellow passengers were hurried into the presence of their Maker. Mr. John C. Henderson, we are sorry tosay, was among the killed. Mr. Barrett, conductor on the train, eseaped without injury; the express

baggage-car when submerged in the water, by climbing to the top.

A list of the bodies as yet recovered, and of the names of those identified, is given. The number is already over 40, and as nearly 80 persons left Toronto by the train, it is feared that a great many more are yet to find.

Tue Late Ramway Carastrorae.—Immediately on re- ceiving intelligerce of the catastrophe, two gentlemen from the Globe office left the city for Hamilton ; they found the workmen hauling out of the water, with a crane and pulleys, a portion of the bridge which lay on the surface of the ice, with (a view of reaching the first passenger car, which is entirely submerged under water. The second passenger car, half broken, lay on the bank at the base of the bridge, and it was from this that the sand andthe dead bodies have been taken, and the other many feet below the water lie buried sixty or seventy human beings, who left Toronto in confidence of reach-

ing the journey's end. The chain bridge was about 30 or 40

feetabove the water, and the fall must have beea tremendous. The locomotive or tender has not been seen at all.. Roads have been cut on the face of the bank, and the passengers and the baggage of the train from the west were conveyed by them -up to the gap. he bridge was on the main track of the Great Western Railway of the Toronto and Hamilton Section, as was at the first supposed. The whole train of

stilter stone piers has gone with some portion of the swing |

platform. A large number of passengers came up by the one |

o'clock train from Toronto to learn the state of their friends. :

They found the buildings containing the bodies closed, and no opportunity of identifying them. Jt is supposed that between fifty and sixty persons were taken from the second car, and that about as many were in the first one, making altogether 100 passengers, not more than ten or twelve were |

He then gave a very lucid explanation of its lingua seripta, and the way in which its hicroglyphies had been discovered, and then reading made plain. He com- mented gpon the fertilising nature of its soil--for the overflowing of the Nile, at periodical seasons ; and enumerated some of the natural productions of the country.
