DUBLIN! APRIL I.
A requisition to the Lord Mayor is in course of
signature, calling on his lordship to convene a meet-
ing of the citizens, for the purpose of taking mea-
sures for the return of liberal candidates for the city
of Dublin at tho general election. As nothing what.
ever has been yet done by the Dublin liberals in the
matter, it is high time for them to take some step of
this kind.

Lord Milton has addressed his present constituents,
the electors of Wicklow, stating his intention to seek
their suffrages again at the next election.
The liberal electors of Kilkenny have published
their requisition to Mr. Greene and Serjeant
for the purpose of showing by its formidable length
the hopelessness of a contest on the part of any other
candidate.

The conservatives publicly boast that they will be
enabled to return Mr. Lambert, their candidate, fur
New Ito's. owing to the division of the liberal in-
terest between Sir T. Itediegtun and Mr. Dully.
Sir Timothy O'Brien is threatened with rather a
formidable opponent is Cashel,- -namely, Mr. Dar-
; gan, the famous railway contractor.
The conservatives, already speculating on Mr.
Napier being forthwith raised to the bench, are
suggesting Mr. 11. Holmes Jay, (J.C., as a successor
fur him in the representation ut Dublin University.
Yesterday, as the Dublin and London steamer,
Peem, was proceeding out of this harbour
on 'her voyage, the second engineer, named Att•ed
Bristow, fell among the machinery, and was killed
