THE ELECTIONS.
THE RESULT.
An estimate of tho final result of the elections gives tho coalition of Tories and Parnellites a majority of ten over the Liberals. Apart from the Parnellites, tho Liberals have a majority of twenty-two. The Irish conservatives, headed by w Lowie, are forming an independent section, opposing any coalition with Parnell. Mr Burt replaces Mr Lawson as loader of tho local optionists. Mr Bradlaugh has entered into negotiations with the Liberal leaders Tho number of members of the new House of Commons who never before were elected to Parliament is 332. This has had no parallel since tho first Parliament under the Reform Bill of 1832.
