Journal, a conservative paper, says :—"Mr. Wykehea Mat-
tin has publicly &weaned that he intends to offer hisses/I
as a candidate for Newport ; and although it has ace been

will offer himself for the borough of Maidstone. The county
liberals have, therefore, put out to sea in search of mindi.
dates. What may be the molt of their cruise it is impair
able for ns to coojeettire. It is said that air Joseph
Hawley will devote his personal services to the needs
of his party. Mr. Goldemidt, of Somerhill, is also

Edmund Fakeer has determined not to offer himself as a
candidate at the next election. Sound, straightforward
politicians—moo who are neither afraid to say what they

men of Kent a successor worthy of this great patriotic

would not be right to discuss at thin moment their merits
