The Borough Municipal Elections took place as usual, yesterday ;
and Birmingham is the first important town to send accounts to London. The Conservatives, hitherto quite excluded, have introduced three of their party, by favour, it is said, of the publicans. This seems to be at the expense of the Complete-Suffragists; but the general character of the Town Council is little altered ; and the election excited no great interest. Much the same may be said of that of Leeds ; where the " Reformers " have a little strengthened their large majority.
The accounts received today from other places are all destitute of interest.
