THE ELECTIONS.
W FSTMINSTER.
On Friday evening, a meeting of the electors of
St. John's perish took place at the Lecture-hall, Vauxliell-
bridge-road, for the purpose of hearing (rum Mr. J. Villiers
Shelley a declaration of his political opinions.
Mr. Wisroot.t.D took the chair, aid having explained
the ra aeons which had induced Mr. Shelley to come for-
ward as a ceadidate fur the representatnin of Westminster,
went on to observe that they were at present under the con-
trol of a goversassat which did not possess the sympathy
and confidence of anyone. Ile trusted that • better state
of thief,* would soon arise, and that the people would be
fairly aid adequately represented.
Mr. Smatter than addressed the electors, and introduced
the same arguments which ho has employed on former
occasions is favour of vote by ballot. exteusion of the
suffrage, sad triennial parliaments. With regard to the
ezteusiou of the suffrage, he thought it was advisable
for them to support what was CAW Mr. Ilume's mo-
tion." lie was prepared to go farther than this motion,
but in his opinion they ought to accept what they could
get, until they were fortunate enough to obtain all they,
desired. Ile argued strongly in favour of local sell-
government; sod proceeded to *bane that if he should
Mamie their Torras:olefin) he world support Mr. Hume
in his end, Amur' to promote economy and retrenchment in
the expenditure of the public money. Ile would else up-
hold the principles of Sir kiClajWill Hall with regard to
ecclesiastical mutters. Alter repeating his former argu-
ments upon the question of church rates and national
education, Mr. Shelley proceeded to expatiate upon the
sobject of protection, observing that he, as • landowner,
had been able to audio farming pay extremely well under
free trade. (Hear, ►ear.) Ile contended that protection
was never Wooded to benefit the tenants, but to put
mosey int) the pockets of the landlords. Ile thought
, that the struggle between protection and free trade should
, be settled now and for ever, and that all minor differences
should be swamped until this great question was finally
determined. Should he be elected to parliament his consti-
tuents would find him a working member, and he would
make it his duty to reside within the precincts of West-
minster, and devote two days in the week to see such of the
electors as might desire to consult him. (Hear, tom)
In answer to questions put to him, Mr. SIIELLTV stated
that be was opposed to the game laws, and that he was not
prepared to support univerail suffrage in the present coudi-
tion of the people of Englund.
A resolution was passed, pledging the meeting to rapport
Mr. Shelley, sad the proceedings closed.

LIVERPOOL
On Saturday afternoon a meeting of the liberal
electors of Liverpool was held et Esetwood's Royal Hotel,
to adopt measures for securing the return of two free-trade
members of parliament for the borough at the ensuing ge-
neral election. The meeting was numerously attended,
and William Rathbun', E-q., was voted to the chair.
Mr. C. E. Itawetsos read the report of the committee
appointed at a previous meeting, to watch over the liberal
electoral interests of the borough, with a view to securing
proper representatives in parliament, who would vote in
accordance with the wishes of their constituents on the
vital questions affecting the free Steal pulley of the country.
In accordance with the powers entrusted to that committee,
a deputation, consisting of Messrs. A. H. Wylie and Charles
Robertaos, had proceeded to London—lt having been pre-
viously ascertained that the return of ens of the present
members at the neat general election was doubtful in con-
sequence of votes given on the Papal Aggression B 11, with
limited powers in regard to the selection of another candi-
date. They were instructed to ask Sir James Otahans
whether, in the event of a requisition being presented to
him from Liverpool so numerously and respectably signed
as to induce a well-founded belief that he would be re-
turned, that bon. baronet would allow himself to be put in
nomination ? That deputation bad only that min ning re.
turned, and would now report the result of their mission.
Mr. A. H. Witte then came forward, amidst mach
cheering, and after dueluiming Lime statements which
had appeared in regard to the retirement of Sir
Thomas Birch and the suggestion of soother candidate, and
the alleged approval of that candidate by the deputation,
proceeded to state that neither Mr. Robertson nor him-
self would have presumed to express approval of any
candidate until authorised to do so by their fellow
townsmen. (Hear, hear.) They had, however, on be-
coming acquainted with the fact that Sir Thomas
Birch did nut intend ta preseut himself for re-election,
waited a sowed time on Sir James Graham—that lion. ba-
ronet having, iu the first place, declined to contest the
represeutation of Liverpool against the sitting members,
one of whom (Mr. Cardwell) had been his former colleague,
although he admitted the importance of the constituency
was scarcely second even to the metropolis. (Cheers.) Sir
James then said that whatever might be the feeling with
regard to himself, he felt that he was too old to eneoenter
the tech of representing such vast and important interests
as Ammo of lAverpor, and mast, therefore, decline the in-
tended loaner. Three these circumstances, it wax for the
Ma rare dorm 011ie borough to consider what was the
her sores to he adopted, so that the all-important interests
which they niteseated should not be imperilled in the forth-
combs, traggio. (Loud and protracted cheering.) He
concluded by swing that a committee be appoiuted, with
fish powers 1110111 this meeting, to select two radar's to
represent the lbw trade party at the next eleetits.

fur the purpose of adopting the necessary measures to

DEVONPOKT.—In this borough no active MOSS-
meat has yet taken
_place, but it is understood that Mr.
Tufaril and 8.. r J. Rainilly, the present liberal members,
will again prenat tiembelves, and will in all probability be
re.elteted. On the aide of the Derby ministry it Is said
that two gentlemen will be pat forward. One, the son of
a distinauished protectionist duke, and the other • distin- I
guished and highly connected admiral, are spokes of as the 11
owning men.

matters remain in static quo. Both the memhen for the
former ore Mon.'', and h e ore Afraid the influence of the'
Duke of Met land and the Mar nisof I..ntiontterry is too
strong to render the ejectiou of Mr. Ferrer and Lord Sea-
ham possible. On the whole, the prospects of the free
trade cause in Northumberland and Durham arc of a very
grstifyiug and satisfactory rtaturc.—NciecesCs then than,

EAST WOICENTRRSHIRE.—It I. now stated that the
difficulty which had arisen with regard to Mr. Clive, the pro-
tectionist candidate, owing to his refusal to give • pledge to
oppose the Maysouth grant, ha, been got over by • dis-
creet resolve on the part of the representative of this section
of his supporton not to press the demand. The startled
candidate, we bear, has been soothed and p•mfed, and has
consented not to leave his patty in the lurch at such an im-
portant crisis.— Weereaerslaire Chronicle.
EAST CORNWALL—Mr. Robartes, the present free
trade member, has declared his intention of again asking
fur the suffrages of the electors. Mr. Pole Carew, the other
member, is regarded with suspicion by the protectionist
party, but will again present Licaself„ and most probably be 1
re-elected. The protectionists put forward Mr. Kendall, of
l'elyn, bat that gentleman will refuse to contest the divi-
sion ageing Mr. itobartts unless Mr. Carew declare. fur
protection. Mr. Carew is at present in Paris, in cense-
quence of the death of his eldest brother.
llALtnx—Everything is progressing very fa-
voutably for the two fret-trade candidates, and the re-

from the liberal party every day. No push has been made in

more eatistectory.
HUDDERSPIELD.—At present there is a split
amongst the liberal electors of Huddersfield, and though
attempts have been mud* to prevent a division, they have
not yet succeeded.
NORTH NORTHUMBERLAND.—The opposition (says
the Nomad& Guardian) with which Sir Wine Orey was
threatened in North Northumberland is said to have this
week assumed a more eh finite shape. Lords Ossulston and
Lovaine are alleged to be in the field, though neither of
their addresses has appeared, nor has any systematic can-
vass been undertaken in their behalf. It 14 well understood,
however, that a strong desire exists for bringing thins for-
ward. However, there seems no doubt of Sir (home's
triumphant return. It is expected the honourable baronet
will bo 111 the north (if ho has nut already arrived) in a
day or two.
Pottrimorrit.—We are pleased to hear (says the
Ilaerialeire Independent) that the friends of Sir Francis
Baring ent?rtain no donht of his triumphant return for this
borough at the approaching election.
PLIMOUTII.—During the last week meetings have
been held in support of the interests of three of the can-
didates for the representation of Plymouth in the neat par-
liament, and committees have been organised for the pur-
pose of conducting the canvass. On Tuesday Mr. It. P.
Collier, the barrister, met and addressed a large body of the
electors, who had assembled on his invitation in the hall of
:he Mechanics' Institute. On Wednesday Mr. G. T.
Braise, a merchant of London, deputy chairman of the
Eastern Steam Navigation Company, anal a director of the
Plymouth Great Western Ducks, met at his own invitation
a numerous body of the electors in the Meehsnies' Insti-
tute. In polities Mr. Brains is a moderate whig,
and what some of the more ardent tempered called
• half-hearted reformer. There was no very strong
demonstration in Mr. Brain's favour, dint, as the
el'airman thought, suMeient to justify Mr. Brains in offer-
ing himself as a candidate. On Thursday Largo placards
were put out announcing that, prineipiily through the
instrumentality of Mr. Braille, the total anew* efelpital
for completing the Great Wetter' Docks had base obtained.
Tho slehciency amounted to several thossead pounds. The
news spread through the town with great rapidity, and the
I hells were set ringing, and Mr. Brain's name was on
almost every tongue. Mr. Brains intends to visit Plymouth
again during the present week. On Thursday evening Mr.
B. Esecott delivered his second 'address to the clat-
ters; it was very clever and effective. Mr. Emmett is sup-
ported by the extreme radicals and by the dissenters gene-

BUILDERS BENEVOLENT INSTITUTION.—A special
general meeting of the friends and subscribers to this useful
charity, which was bounded for the purpose of granting
pensions and giving relief to ‘lceuyed and aged members of
the building profession, was held on Thursday, at their
aloes, New Oxford-street, Mr. T. Grimell, president, in
the chair, for the purpose of considering a proposed altera-
tion in the rules relating to the election of pensioners. The
report, which was highly satisfactory, stated that there ate
now on the fund. of the society eight males and four
females; end that, owing to the large number of pressing'
applications, it is the intention of the ilFectors to hold
another election in May next, when three more will he
elected. Owing to a recent alteration in the bye-laws, the
benefits of the society are extended to the provinces, and
the directors are empowered to appoint district committee'',
for carrying out details. The report concluded by observing
that the expectations fo'med of the success of the institu-
tion at its formation had been fully borne out by results,
and the director; hoped that the public would come forward
to enable them to still farther extend its benefits.—The
Chairman having briefly addressed the meeting, and ex-
plained the objects for which they had met,—Mr. Joshua
Higgs moved a resolution to alter one of the rules, so that
the votes polled by unsuccessful candidates might be carried
forward until they were 110.117 successful.—Mr. Joseph
liird seconded the resolution, which upon being put to the
meeting was carried wens con.—Mr. George Bird proposed
a vote of thanks to the chairman' which having been replied
