MINISTERIAL BALANCE SHEET.

TnE account between the Duke and the Country is now closed, so far as the elections are concerned. We suggested that he would probably Sustain the loss of a dozen in Ireland. From the subjoined statement, it will be seen that he has lost in the Counties four, and in the Boroughs seven. The state of the balance in Scotland is not so ascertainable; for there the contest lies as frequently between men of the same party as of different parties. It is a dispute about shares, not principles. The corre- spondent who furnishes the following table--the same who furnished the similar one for England some time ago—has omitted the return of Mr. Johnston of Straiton for the Inverkeithing diitrict, instead of Mr Downie, a thick and thin Ministerialist.
