It is worth notice that neither the Liberal nor the
Conservative Caves have prospered at the Elections. Mr. Hubbard, Mr. Sand- ford, Mr. Erle, Mr. Schreiber, Mr. Reginald Yorke, Mr. Gorst, Mr. B. Cochrane have none of them seats in the new Parlia- ment. Of the mutinous Tories only Sir R. Knightley and Lord E. Cecil, we think, survive. General Peel and Sir W. Heathcote both retired. Of the Liberal Cave, Mr. Laing, Mr. Horsman, Mr. Anson, Sir G. Bowyer, Lord J. Browne, the two Messrs. Mackinnon, the two Lords Clinton, Mr. Marsh, Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Doulton, Mr. Wyld, Mr. Lamont, Mr. Miller have all disap- peared. The only survivors may be said to be Mr. Lowe, the two Lords Grosvenor, Mr. Beaumont, and Mr. Gregory, who had returned to their allegiance long before the elections, and the great Lord of the Caves, Lord Eleho himself, who is unregenerate and impenitent, but who has not fallen.
