Is West Surrey to be represented by two•opponents of Mr.

Gladstone? At present the Members for West Surrey are Mr. Cubitt, a thorough Conservative, and Mr. Briscoe, a nominal Liberal, who were returned at the last election without a contest. Mr. Briscoe, however, in his address, avows himself absolutely opposed to the disestablishment of the Irish Church, and if

returned would, we suppose, practically become a supporter of the present Government. Sorely there is a less diiimal fate iu store for West Surrey than such representatives as these ?
