I REPRVIENTATION OF NOITINONAII.--FOT some
time rumours have been in circulation that Kr. Paget, the
senior member who has ably and efficiently represented
the town Mime 1856, would not again offer himself,
bat whether there is any foundation for these rumours
we cannot positively Mate. There seems no doubt that
Sir Robert Clifton, Bert., the other member, will again
solicit re-election at the bands of the constituency, who
retuned him by midi an immense majority on the
last occasion. The Hon. Henry Strait, eldest son of
Lord Belper, who formerly represented the town. I.
also talked about as a probable candidate, whilst
it is positively affirmed that Mr. Thomas Bromley (worm-
entire), who fought a strong battle at the last general *lee-
Hoc, will Wail put has claims before the coostitheacy. The
name of Mr. Mellor, barrister aclaw (goo of Hr. Jostles
Keller), has also been mentioned as a likely candidate on,
liberal principles, and a coated for the seats kr, therefore,
by no means improbable. The last election, wises Sir'
Robert Clifton was returned, strongly divided the liberal
party, the cohesion of wti th is seldom of the Armrest the-
•rather. Whet position it will take as regards Mr. Print (if
. be aisle seeks re-election) and Sir Robert entice Ise matter
of doubt, seeing that a very strong aotagooiam was shown
at the last election by the corporation section of the liberal
party towards those who supported Sir Robin Clam.—
