Pt:ninon—The election for Plympton takes place on Saturday. J. H. North, and W. G. Partin, Esqrs. will be re-elected. PONTIIIMACT—Monday, Mr. Hinehlswortb, Mr. Hardy,and Mr. Starlit, candidates for this borough, meted the town; the election comMences this day. reams, Just 7.—The election is fixed for Friday next. There is now almost a certainty that there will be no adbition to the number of candidates. Thus then they stand. Stanley (sure of his election ; Contact, (if there be any faith in Elector's promises), sure too ; Wood very nearly sure. Last evening Mr. Stanley made his entry into this town. The Committee made the most amp!e preparations to ensure him a brilliant reception. The bells began merrily to peal. The streets were crowded to excess, and the windows and tops of houses were graced with beautiful forms, the boast of Preston. SHUR EliAM.—The approaching election at Shoreham has assumed, within the last week, an appearance which promises a severe contest between Mr. Sugden and Mr. Howard ; the former Gentleman being a Candidate in the Protestant intereit,the latter in the Catholic. Someesersniec—The Sheriff has named the 19th instant for the commencement of this election. The Candidates are, Sir Thomas Lethbridge and Mr. Dickinson, the former Memb ers; and Mr. I lenry 11 , .nt. The old Members have again addressed the county, ...ring their intention to appeal to the County, should a contest be re quired. Mr. Hunt also declares that he will go to the poll, should tee chew of hand., which he confidently expects will be in his favour, be disputed; hut this threatened opposition creates not the least extra bustle, with the " regular" Candidates and their parti sans. Indeed everything proceeds so tranquilly—varied only by the good humoured visits from town to town of Mr. Hunt on the market d a y s—th at if those " fragments of history;' the Newspapers, and the Sheriff's Proclamation, were not to announce the fact, we itheuld hardly know that a General Election is in progress. If Mr. Gore Langton should start, as it is said that he will, the general opinion is, that Sir Thomas Lethbridge will be thrown out. Susanne.—We have now four candidates. Mr. Walrond, our third man, made his public entry on Tuesday morning. A report that the " meal and the malt" had been sent before him was gene. rally and industriously circulated. " Ten thousand pounds (said a Ovate letter) has been paid into the bank at Sudbury to begin with, and Alr.Walrond will bring a further supply in his carriage." This most cheering intelligence had a considerable effect, but after a:! a very poor muster took place. Mr. Walrond is a very young man, and evidently quite inexperienced in election tactics : he had not connected even half a dozen sentences to deliver as a speech, sad being closely questioned publicly by an elector on the Catholic question, which he answered evasively, he became much embar rassed. If he has ten thousand pounds in the bank, and a further supply in his carriage, he has reasons more powerful than eloquence, or other talents, why be should be supported.— He will suffer for want of management, as his principal supporter is a perfect old woman in these matters. Nothing but the judicious expenditure of a larger sum of money can secure his election, and appearances at present are much against the judgment of his parti- Nina. A very gentlemanly man, said to be a barrister, a Mr. Ogilvy, made his appearance on Tuesday morning ; he is totally unknown here; lie made a long and very eloquent address to the electors*, assembled at the Bear Inn, at five °clock on Tuesday evening.— lie concluded by stating that he should not canvass from house to house, but if any respectable person would take hint by the band, onkl any prie.pect of success offered itself, be would fight the battle manfully. In an address this morning, be has declared his intro- Lon of proceeding on his canvass, and standing the poll till the last moment. Mr. Wilke is expected to make public entry on Thursday. SUSICI. The election for this county is fixed to take place at Chichester on Thursday, the 15th inst. when we suppose Messrs. Burrell and Curteis will be returned without opposition. Tv/mom—The election is fixed for Saturday next. The old ]embers, Lord Ebrington, and J. P. Grant, Esq. will keep their seats. Toemass.—Tbe election is fixed for Monday next. The candi dates are Mr. Courtney, one of the old Members, Lord Viscount Ihruard, and Mr. Baldwin—Mr. Bent retires. The voters for Una. borough are fifty-five in number. YORIUHIR4—On Tuesday morning the five candidates for the representation of the county, whohad all arrived in Leeds the pre vious evening, repaired to the Cloth-halls, attended by their respee the friends. Lord Milton and Mr. Marshall proceeded from their committee-room at Scarborough's Hotel, accompanied by a large procession of merchants, manufacturers, and other gentlemen of the town and neighbourhood, wearing orange favours. They reached the Mixed Cloth•hall about a quarter to nine o'clock, and walked through its streets, where the clothiers were mammal at their respective-benches, and where they met with a very cordial reception. They then adjourned to the steps In the spacious area, where several thousand persons were already assembled. Lord hlwrou presented himself, and was most cordially ieceived I,y the meeting; amounting now to 15,000 or tO,OOO persons, and in which scarcely any but orange favours were visible. He then addressed the nteeting•at great length, and declared the principles oit which he solicited their support on behalf of himself and Mr. Marshall. as We stand before you," said his Lordship,'* on the broad principle of the love of liberty. (Cheers). The love of liberty is the principh on which I first offered myself as your representa tive, and by which I have on all occasions been guided." His Lord stip then said he was an advocate for freedom of conscience and of Mr. MARSHALL then stept forward, and was received with cheers. " Gentlemen," said he, "I offer myself to your notice a- a candidate to represent you in Parliament, on those prin ciples of liberty which our noble Representative has so well ex pressed and so constantly acted upon—those principles. which I am sure the great majority of us approve, and which have the appro bation of my Noble Friend, whose disinterested conduct has dune so much honour both to himself and to the country at large. (Cheers). Gentlemen, you all recollect that when the corrupt borough • of (rampound was disenfranchised. and two additional Members were given to this county, it was first intended to have given them • to the mercantile town of Leeds—(Hear,hear).—Gentletnen, if we had had the representatives given to us, should we have done other than chosen commercial men to watch over our rights and our interests ?—(Bear, bear).--•And when the representation is given to the county at large, are we to abandon our rights? Are we not to expect that the great commercial interest of Yorkshire shall be represented in Parliament ?—(Cheers).—Gentlemen, I offer myself, if you should think me a fit person, as a representative of the com mercial interest--(Cheers). Mr. Goat introduced Mr. Bethel!, who offered himself as a can didate to represent the county in the ensuing Parliament, and whom be ►elieved to possess the talents and principles requisite in a man wno undertook the office of their representative. Mr. Bavust.t. next addressed the Meeting, and declared himself inimical to the Corn Laws. The Mayor of Leeds, Mr. Hatt., introduced Richard Fountayne Wilson, and Wm. Duncombe, Esqrs. Mr. Wltwtt declared the grounds on which he offered himself— attachment to the Constitution in Church and State, and opposition to all further concession to the Catholics. With regard to the Corn Laws, he did nut give any pledge. Mr. Ihnicomae in his speech declared himself averse to the Ca tholic claims, and friendly to a cautions and gradual amelioration et negro slavery. With respect to the Corn Caws, he whiled to go unshackled to Parliament. Mr. (iaavAsa Waists& wished to knew of Mr. Wilson, whether or not he was chairman of a meeting at Tadcaster, on the 13th of 1545, when a petition was voted deprecating any alteration hi the Corn Laws. Mr. Wusoit said he certainly was autumn at that Meeting, and he must candidly state be did not think his soden. h a d under gone any change. if there was at any time a deficiency iu the sup ply of corn in this country, it should be allowed to be supplied from abroad. His complaint against the present system was, that the supply and demand did not arise at the same moment. He wished to have always a steady supply from our farmers at home, and to fill up the deficiency of importations from abroad (Disapprobation). Mr. Waxes& having desired to have the opinions of all the Can didates expressed on this subject, Mr. Berstaxs said he would not pledge himself to any particular vote, but he must say that he thought a temperate, steady, mode rate price would be best secured-by allowing a regular importation of cons, subject to such a duty as, on deliberate inquiry, the agricul turist might seem to require. Lord illimas said his opinion was, that the importation of corn ins, this country ought always to be free. . Nis. Maassima. said, his ;pinion of the corn laws bad always been, that they were most impolitic, most injurious to the general Interests of the country—injurious to every class of the people, and as much so to the farmer as to any other class—(Cheers). He was an enemy to all monopolies, and especially to a monopoly of the n e c essar i es o f life—(Hear, hear). He should advocate a free trade in corn, subject only to such a duty as would counteriabuice the burdens borne exclusively by the agriculturists—(Cheers). Mr. Deneossax said the time had arrived when there should be a revision of rbe corn laws. The Meeting then separated. Monday is hard by the High Sheriff as the day of nomination. IRELAND. CAVAN—Mr. Coate, of Beßenton: Forest, will poll to the last man. DuaLts—There are yet no indications of any contest in either die County or City. FIRMAIIACH.-.4t is supposed Sir H. Brooke will resign. Moteaostaw—Mr. Evelyn Shirley is determined to contest piece. lie relies on the popular interest. I MEMBERS RETURNED TO SERVE IN THE NEW PARLIAMENT. • ' ; ..- Bestonvoees—W.

Cap tain Gaoatm Woottcossait's proportion is reported to be £4,400. — The timber vessel lately picked up on the Coast of Ireland, eon). pletely abandoned, is also adjudged to the VICTOR and the Nercar, to the exclusion of the Sastiaasus, to which ship the latter vessel was a tender. The crews of the hired packets, lyisg in Falmouth harbour, last week struck for an advance of wages, and refused to proceed with the mails. The different packets, as they arrived from abroad, were boarded, and the crews persuaded to enter into the general combination. Os these circumstances being known to Admiral Sir James &meaner, the BILAMMILZ, bent. FAVELL ; NIGHTINGALE, Lieut. Krrcuem ; and Levees: tender, were fonhwith ordered to Falmouth, with instructions to take the mails without delay to their different destinations; but on the arrival of these ships at that port, they found that the men had, of their own accord, returned to their duty.

About two years since, William, the waiter at the Queen's Head Tavern, Lower -street, Islington, suffered a paralytic attack, which suddenly deprived him of the faculty of speech, and he remained completely dumb until last Thursday night. As he lay in bed, he awoke, as if some person had called him, and discovered that his speech had been restored to him as suddenly as he had been deprived of it. The poor fellow, almost overpowered by his joyful feelings, immediately left his bed, and repaired to the chamber of his master and mistress, spreading some little alarm through the house, by the viva wee announcement of the happy change he had undergone, and the following day, with a some what exuberant joy, he caused the church bells to be rung. On Sunday he attended at the parish church, when the Minister publicly announced the event, and in William's name returned thanks to the ALMIGHTY. The power of speech is perfectly restored, but he ob serves, " I sometimes almost forget hbw I used to talk." Monday evening four persons, Mr. James, of the firm of Mallcott and Jones, Orford -street, his partner Mr. Mallcott, and two young ladies, Coming from Vauxhall in a boat they had engaged to take them to Westminkter Bridge (owing to the darkness of the night), , drove against a barge moored-off one of she wharfs, • when the boat upset, arid Mr. James sank to rise no more. Mr. Malltett, who is an expert swimmer, by amazing exertions was fortunate enough to rescue the t. two young ladies from a watery grave. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. • BETTING ROOWTATTERSALL'S, Just 11. With iheexcepdon of a few at th e early part •of the afternoon, The attendance of the subscifbers wss very limited, the great ma. jority being at Ascot Heath Rates, sachet scarcely any business was done; while the trivial bets that were made are not worthy of notice. The betting will nett week commence with vigour, when the July Stakes it Newmarket, and the Derby and Oakes of 1827. will be brought upon the Market, in addition to the Doncaster StlLeger. ETON COLLEGE REGATTA. The Annual Regatta of the young Noblemen and Gentlemen educated at Eton College, on Monday evening, was honoured by the presence of his Royal Highness the Duke of Yoe'. At six o'clock in the evening, his Royal Highness, accompanied by the Duke of Wstuttosom and his other distinguished visitors, left Frog. more Lodge, and rode through the town to the banks of the Thames. The cutters, which were decorated with splendid silk banners, having been manned, and the order of procession formed, the young Gentlemen rowed through Windsor Bridge, and round a neighbouring eyot, saluting his Royal Highness, as they passed, with enthusiastic cheering. The coxswains of the various cuttert were attired la fancy costumes, and the fineness of the evening, and the immense number of spectators greatly contributed to enhance the brilliancy of the spectacle. After the. Gentlemen had partaken of a cold collation, on Boveney Meadow, they returned Or similar older, and the amusements of the evening were terminated by a display of extremely brilliant and variegated fireworks. The bands of the Ist Life Guards and 63d Infantry were in attendance. ASCOT RACES—THIRD DAY. A-cot-heath was crowded again on this day, as on the two days preceding, with fashionable people; and the visitors of the middle class were even m .re nnme rous than on Tuesday or yesterday. It seems hardly conceivable how so many persons in the world should have temper, and leisure, at once, to be happy. Upon the whole, the people lease: exalted in rank seemed, taken in general, to be the moat perfectly delighted and free from care--that is to say, speaking of the male part of the assembly : fern rles Lin all ranks), as long as there is a crowd and a bustle, are always perfectly de lighted, and free from care. The great concourse of company, too, j 'fined to the peculiar fineness of the weather for travelling--as the same sun rouses cater pillars that raises tulips—seemed to have attracted a more than usual proportion of the petit jeu gentry, who make it their business to take in the " raws" upon these occasions. The " thimble rig," and the " odd-or ,en caper," and the " hustling-in-the-hat business," were all particularly. rife ; besides jugglers (not gam bling) present in abundance, who worked their miracles eis plein jour; and took their chance of the public sympathy, by sending round the tambourine after wards; for remuneration. One of these last, who got as near to the Royal stand as he could, was really a fellow of infinite dexterity. And the dog had a " manner" too—looked as though be would have scorned to work for a livelihood, with all his heart— (as in all human probability he would;) wore a very bad tinsel jacket, with not at all a bad grace; and had obviously had his hair cut by a barber that was a genius in his profession. Ballad singers, of course, there were uncountable; and a party of glee singers came; but the ringing of the bell to " clear the course" always put them out of tune, and they were laughed at. A company of ladies, dancing on stilts eight teet high, did better; as they not only made money, but saw the race admirably (over other people's heads) into the bar gain.. The - upper end of the course was thronged, as usual, by personsanxious to see the King, who present ed himself at his window repeatedly, bowing with great apparent good humour to the multitude. The lower ground afforded greater variety in the creature comforts of spruce beer and gingerbread nuts. There were show booths, too, here in considerable force—people without arras---or heads*--shorter than mankind in general—or taller; distinction. from one's fellow creatures being all that is requisite to make a man's fortune in these days. These " caravansla the way,often merit attention, many of them are curiosittei: There was one just below the " Betting stand," and it seemed very popular too, which offered a " Sussex Giantess;" " a Dwarf from the Low Countries :" a "Bohemian, " who balanced coach-whe e ls on his chin ; and a black eight-of-h and 'player, " equal to the celebrated Ramo Samee :" all (besides several dogs, and a lady who "took money") dwell•ng in a co vered cart not 12 feet square, and all to be seen for a penny. The speech which the proprietor of this vehicle made on his steps, between the " performances," would be invaluable in these election times, if we had room to give it. There was a rival "show '' stood at a few paces distant, which had music, and particularly a gong, which seemed to attract great notice. The owner of Ramo Samee's rival had no musical attractions. But the way in which he treated that tact, when he saw it beginning t affect the people's minds! " You will ob ser re, ladies and gentlemen, we have no music here," said the o ator, turning to the rival show—round which the crowd (dropping off from his own) N‘ as'collec ting— with the most admirable composure. "There is nothing here to prevent the voice of public opinion from being heard—nothing to hinder you from hearing the senti ments of the ladies and gentlemen who hove witnessed the exhibition, as they leave the caravan. Hark to what they say, ladies and gentlemen; as they come out—the performance is now c , :ncluding 1 This way—four steps, Sir, if you please—were you not gratified ? If you were not, I pledge myself to return the money. There! ladies and gentlemen! Hat k to what the genth man, who has seen it, says of the tall woman ! Here there is no noise, no imposition, every person has the opportunity of jkidg ing for himself. Now ; then, is the time ! All these remarkable wonders to be seen for the small price of one penny, gentlemen! One more performance this day is all that will be in our power," &c. We regret being compelled to omit the rest ; there mill net be many such speeches heard this side the beginning of the next Session of Parliament. These subordinate delights, however, were of course compelled, like the waiting maid in the The Critic, to if keep their madness in the back ground" whenever a race was ready. And the day's running, though not of the most striking order. was sufficient to afford diversion. The first race was for The Gold Cup, value 100 guineas, the surplus in specie, by sub. scriptions of 20 sous each; the second horse to receive back his stake; 3 yrs 6st- lelb. 4 yrs est. 21b. 5 yrs est. 121 b. 4 yrs and aged 9st. 31b. mares allowed 31b.

Bizarre made strong running at starting, and kept it en all the way io the last turn, followed closely by the others.

The younkers were a considerable time before they could in the first iestance be brought together, and when the word" Off" was given, not oue seemed obedient to it. Some began to rear up or plunge, whilst others went off at a rattling rate till they found to return was imperative; after this false start a lapse of se veral minutes ensued; the word was again given, still noobedirnce, plunging, kicking, and many pranks were played ; in this way chi.) , went on for 20 minutes; but at last, after five or six false *tarts. off they went in the most magnificent style : a fitter or more imposing sight has never been seen on the turf. They started nearly even, and instantly got at full speed, and continued, keeping in a parallel line neatly front end to end; when three fourths up the distance the race seemed entirely between the three which are placed shove, the others being too far off for a chance. The rest of the ground was beautifully contested, when Starch won by a length ; rode by young Edwards; Forth's, by J.

Both beats were well contested, but won cleverly. Barnett rode Frogmen; J. Day, Picton; Wheatley, Muleteer; and Doc keray, Cadiz. Immediately after the two year old race the Duke of Richmond bought Starch for 300 guineas, to add to his' Grace's improving stud. The steward, Lord Maryborough, in order to have time kept in the running, bad a notice affixed to the weighing room, that every • jockey not attending to weigh at the proper time, would be fined as at Newmarket. After the second rac e hi s ardship ordered on several special constables to assist in clearirig the course. In the course of the day there was a report that Belzoni was amiss. He consequently weft back to 15 to 1, and some betting took place, but the odds settled at 7 to 1. The King left the course between five and sir o'clock, in the same order as he had arrived ; and after his Majesty and the Duke of York had departed, the general " start" commenced, which was not quite so orderly, all along the road, as on the first day (Tues ). The four-in-hand drivers all did well; and the carnage folk (where the post-boys were sober).
