Lonpon, May 3. | The Right Hon. Mr. Cross, the Home Secretary, in a speech at Preston yesterday | said, referring to the majority of the Con- | aervatives in the Houseot Commons: ‘I am quite certain, if there was an election at| the present -which I should deprecate to the utmost-and I hope there will not be another election until tae proper course of | Parliament has run. Our majority at the) present moment would be vastly induced.” | The Press Association says that the Lords } of the Admiralty who have been inspecting the Chatham Dockyard conferred privately to-day, it is understood in reference to the completion and despatch of another power- | ful ironclad squadron for particular service. » ATHENS, May 3. It is ofticially stated that the negotiations between the British Consuls and the insur- ents for a cessation of the insurrection in Thessaly have been successful, the Consuls promising, upon the authority of Lord Salisbury, that the Greek interests will in no way suffer ; but on the contrary, will be fairly represented before Europe. The Consuls have now gone to endeavor to effect a similar arrangement in Mace- donia. Monrreat, May 3. The latest returns have changed the con- dition of things political, considerably. The Ministerial party--the Joly— now stand with 31 supporters, and the Opposi- tion—the DeBoucherville—with 31, with only two constituencies to hear from. A tie in Rimouski will probably give the Government another supporter. Birth. At Edgecumbe House, on the 3rd inst., the wife of George Peake, Esq., of a son. Died.
