OXFORD.

A public meeting of the electors of this city wan
held at the Town-hall on Friday evening, when the late
members, Mr. Langston and Sir V. Page Wood, attended
to give an account of their stewardship, and to state their
views for the future. Between seven hundred and eight
hundred electors were present, including the most influen-
tial men on the liberal aide. Mr. Alderman Sadler was
voted to the chair, and addressed the meeting on the ge-
neral state of affairs and the prospect of a reimposition of
protective duties on food if the people did not take
steps to prevent Lord Derby carrying his wishes into
effect. Mr. Langston adverted to the beneficial changes which
had been made by Sir It. Peel end the late government, by
which taxes to the amount of 12 millions had been taken
off, and the consumption of coffee, tee, sugar, and other
necessaries of life greatly increased, the increase in their
exports being 30 per cent , the imports 70 per cent., every
elms better employed, and the workhouses containing
scarcely any able-bodied paupers. He mentioned that the
repeal of the navigation laws had been most successful, as
was evinced by the fact that the present government,
who originally opposed it, did not mean to disturb it,
Ile said that the government were unable to see
what benefits had been conferred by the adoption of the
free trade policy, and they maintained that their principles
were unchanged, but that they would not reverse that policy
unless thepeople desired it; be would offer no factious oppo-
sition to the present ministry, but accept all good measures
which they proposed; although be could not but look with
a jealous eye on a Premier who still thought that food
should be taxed. He trusted that the voice of the people
would prevent his carrying his wish into execution, and it
would be their duty to watch any adjustment of taxation,
so that no one party should be benefitted by it solely or at
the expense of others, because protection had been removed
and was now proposed in some other shape. He was in
favour of extension of the suffrage but could not support
Mr. Hume 's Bill, because it contemplated electora! dis-
tricts, where the standard was to be a population of
40,000, by which means London would be entitled to about
80 representatives, and Oxford would return no member
at all, unless other towns with an additional population of
15,000 were annexed to it, in which cue it would return
only one member. He advocated the ballot, for which he
had always voted ; and thought that Mr. Hume's new bill,
to allow places to have it where two-thirds of the electors
desired, should be adopted. With respect to the Maynooth
grant he thought that if the money wet, badly spent, or
did not serve the purpose intended, it should be
inquired into, and, had it come to a division, he
intended to vote for the inquiry. The address
of Mr. Laagston appeared to give general satisfaction.
Sir W. Page Wood contrasted the state of things in 1847
with that of the present time, and attributed the tranquil-
lity of this country to their representative system and the
removal of the taxes on food. Ile designated the conduct
of the present ministry as shuffling and evasive, for they i
refuse to carry out the principles which they had advo-
cated when in opposition ; and while some of them aban-
doned protection, others were holding out hopes of its re-
news]. The result of a free trade had been to place this
country in the most prosperous condition that it had ever
known, for the people were generally employed, the work-
houses comparatively empty, and more money was invested
in the savings banks. A show of hands was then taken for
Mr. Langton and Sir W. P. Wood separately, when every
hand was held up. After a vote of thanks to the chairman,
the meeting separated.

MsgettEirrEtt.—The result of the forthcoming
election at Manchester will show that the spirit of free trade
was never more staunch and unmistakeable than now, and
that both Mr. Gibson and Mr. Bright will be returned to
the next parliament more triumphantly than ever.
BIRRINCIIIAM.—Our correspondent writes: Satur-
day was a busy day as regards movements of the Protec-
tionist. Conservative-Free Trade-Protestant AUiance party.
It was carried that an opposition there certainly would be,
and that the radicals, taken by surprise, would lose one
member. The difference appears, however, to be consider.
able between the saying and the doing, for up to a late hour
in the evening the third candidate had not announced him-
self. Mr. J. T. Chance declined long since ; overtures
are said subsequently to have been made to Lord Cal-
theme's son with the like result ; and, finally, the name of
Mr. S. W. Winfield (a wealthy manufacturer, a most zea-
lous churchman, and an orthodox conservative) was men-
tioned. We very much doubt whether the most respecta-
ble gentleman will allow himself to be brought forward;
therefore any gentleman entertaining principles in accord-
ance with those professed by a number of individuals here,
as set forth above, may know that a candidate is wanted,
and that a fine opportunity for a raid on the midland metro-
polis is presented, and if actual success cannot be promised,
there is no doubt that he would experience a very hand-
some reception.
NORTH LANCASHIRE.—The conservatives are ex-
erting anomie's to the utmost to induce a candidate to
some forward as as avowed supporter of Lord Derby's
administration, but, so far, without muss. Mr. Jonathan
Peel, of Accrington-house, was first invited to contest the
representation of this division of the county, and his address
was actually printed, approved of by most of the leaders of
the conservative party, and on the point of being issued to
the electors, when Mr. Peel hung back, and finally refused
to stud, conaidaria.g that there was not the remotest pro-
bability of soccer in the present state of the register for
North Lancashire. Mr. Taylor, a protectionist, residing
near Whalley, was nest **tidied to come forward, hut
from some cause or other, as yet unexplained, he has de.
dined. At a meeting of the conservative freeholders, con-
vened by circular, and held at Preston, on Friday, the
desirability of op sing Mr. Heywood was considered, and
Mr. W. A. F. /launders, a county magistrate, has proceeded
specially to Ireland to endeavour to induce the lion. Col.
&melon, of Burnley, who is now in the suite of Lord
Eglinton, to come forward.
CHE.STRR.—On Thursday evening last, a district
meeting of the liberal party was held upon an open plot
of ground in a much-frequented street. Immediately before
the commencement of the proceedings, a cart was wheeled
on to the ground by men connected with Mr. Ilelme's party,
who bad been drirking the whole of the day at his expense.
One of their number mounter' the cart, and endeavoured to
create a disturbance. For three quarters of an hour, the
meeting was detained before the speaking could begin.,
The populace, at last, enraged at the interruption, turned
upon the disturbers ; their cart was torn to pieces, and some
portions of it were brown into the canal. The men who
commenced the row were forced to run to preteet them-
selves. The speakers then began, and finished their ad-
denies with only occasional interruptions from stragglers,
who desired to fight. At the conclusion of the meeting, the
Hon. W. 0. Stanley and his committee were accompanied
by thousands of people through the streets to the committee
room, whence he thanked them for their conduct, and ad-
vised them to abstain from all violence upon the opposite
patty. A mob of ruffians continued to parade the streets
till a very late hour of the night. The sheriff—P. Eaton,
Esq.—has appointed Wednesday next for the nomination
day. The polling will probably take place on the next
day, Thursday.
Qk.RDIFF.—A warm contest, (says a correspond-
entWwill take place for the representation of the Cardiff
boroughs. The candidates are Dr. Nichol', the late mem-
ber, on the conservative interest, and on the liberal side
Walter Coffin, Elm. The latter Is a thorough fret trader,
and an advocate of vote by ballot. Large and influential
meetings of the electors have been held on his behalf.
Mr. Nichols has been the representative of the boroughs
for 20 years. Ile has announced himself as an advocate of
free trade In its fullest entre ; and that if he approves of
the government of Earl Derby, he will support the measures
of the noble lord, but not otherwise. Both gentlemen have
gone through a most active personal canvass, and appear
cedar, of success.

°LANDOW CITY AND LANARK CAMNTT.—A cor-
renemdent ear, " The writs for 'members to serve in par-
liament for the city of Glasgow and county of Lanark ar-
rived in Glasgow on Thursday afternoon, and the sheriff
has died Wednesday, first, for the city nominations, and
Tuesday, the 13th instant, for the county. Mr. Lockhart
dandy for the county unopposed. Five candidates have

presented themselves fir the city—Mr. Hastie and Mr.
M'Oregur, the late members; Lord Melgund, Mr. Peter
Blackburn, of Killearn, on the protestant conserv.itive in-
terest, hut a free trader ; and Mr. A. Alison, a liberal.
Lord Melgund is started in opposition to Mr. bPGregor,
whose chances of success are gradually becoming less pro.
wising. Mr. Alison, if he comes to the pull, is not ei.
petted to have many supporters ,• and as for Mr. Blstk.
burn, who is but to-day is the field, little cm be said. Toe
liberal camp being thus split, however, it is difficult to ~iy
whether a conservative candidate may not step in.
WlLTa.—lt is at last settled by the South Wilts
Protection Society that no opposition be offered to the re-
election of Mr. Si,lney Herbert at the i nsuiiig election f,„
the southern division of the county. Mr. Stephen Mills,
the chairman of the acting committee for Mr. It. I'. Lang,
lose just issued an address, stating that that gentleman is
shortly expected home from the continent, and will be put
in nomination in consequence of the retirement of Mr.
Bennet from age and infirmities. Mr. S. Herbert hut net
yet issued an address to the electors of South Wilts. With
respect to the northern division, Messrs. Walter Long and
T. H. S. Sothcron will be returned without opposition.—
Hants Advertiser._

BERWICK-ON-TWEED. - -The tory candidates here
are, It seems, resorting to their old practice•. "We wen•,"
says the Nemeastk chronicle, "pretty certain from the
commencement how things would be in any borough where
Mr. Richard Hodgson showed his face. After the files of
unpaid hills which that gentleman left behind him on his
last contests both in Berwick and Newcastle, the Berwick
publicans, however, are likely to be very slow in giving
credit, and money down' will doubtless be the order of
the day. The freemen are short-sighted, indeed, if they
fancy these things can in these days elude detection and
punishment. We warn them, as we lave done more than
once before, that the public eye is on them; and that it
will be the bounden duty of the liberal members for the
North of England to bring the state of the borough before
parliament under the provisions of the act je.t pe-sed fur
the prevention of corrupt practices at elections. if the re-
ports we hear be true, it seems of little consequence even
if the tory candidates are returned, as they would not re-
tain their seats many weeks." It is only just to aihl that
Mr. Matthew Forster, the libelist candidate, and late
member, has set his face against such vile proceeding., with,
it is satisfactory to know, every prospect of suet( m.
COVENTRY.—The election of Messrs. Ellice and
°each is now said to be beyond a doubt; the friends of the
last-named gentleman have been most indefatigable dunng
the week, and many prejudices against him have been re-
moved, and the reformers generally are now united iu the
endeavour to give Mr. Ellice as excellent a colleague as in
his speech to the electors that gentleman acknowledged Mr.
Ocach to have been. On Saturday evening some doubts
were expressed as to whether Mr. Hubbard would continue
the contest.

LICIIYIELD.—The nomination takes place on Wed-
nesday; the contest (if any) will be between Lord Mired
Paget and Mr. Follett; hut from information received yrs.
wedgy it seems doubtful whether the laths gentleman will
go to a poll.
STAFFORDSHIRE (SOUTH).—At present there is no
probability of any opposition to the old members; Lord
Lewisham has conciliated a large number of the electors by
avowing himself a free-trader.
CllttlSMlCityft.—The lion. E. J. Harris has re-
signed the representation of this borough in parliament on
account of being called abroad. In consequence Of his re-
signation Christchurch has been placed in much perplexity
by the unforeseen circumstance of two candidates, Vi.eount
Somerton and Captain Wolcott, R.N., presenting them.
selves on the conservative interest of that borough. Lord
Somerton has, however, since withdrawn. Lord Chewton
has issued an address, and is canvassing the borough on
the liberal interest.

BODMIN.—On Thurday evening last, Mr. Charles
Sawle, of Restormel, son of Sir Joseph Sawle G Sawle,
Bart., announced himself as a candidate for this borough,
tvery probability of success. On the same evening
Mr. Lacy issued a retiring address. It is generally sup-
posed that Mr. Sawle and Dr. Michell will he return. il.
FESATai AND FALmorm.—Mr. Thomas George
Baring, son of Sir Francis Baring, the First Lord of the
Admiralty in the late government, addressed the elector.
both at Penryn and Falmouth. Mr. Baring is a decided
liberal ; he is in favour of an extension of the suffrage—the
admission of Jews to parliament—would dispense with the
property qualification of members—and is a strong advocate
of the free-trade policy. Mr. Baring comes forward
strongly recommended by gentlemen possessing a large
interest in the borough and neighbourhood, and has, it is
said, made a most successful canvass. The tory candidates,
Mr. Gwyn and Mr. Freahfield, are still canvassing.
II ELaTON.—Sir Richard Vyvvan has issued an ad-
dress to the electors of this borough. Sir Richard is a de-
I cided supporter of Lord Derby's government, and as yet
' there is every appearance of his being returned without
opposition. f here is, however, a slight rumour that a libe-
ral candidate will come forward to contest the representa-
tion of the borough with him.
CARI.IsLE.—Sir James Graham and Mr. Joseph
Ferguson, the liberal candidates for the city of Carlisle,
addressed about five thousand of the inhabitants of that
place, from the stairs of the Town-hall, on the evening of
Friday last. A show of hands having been taken the meet-
ing separated.
POOLE.—Sir 0. R. Philips, Bart., the senior repre-
sentative of this borough in the late session of parliament,
formally announces his retirement from public life.
AWINCIIESTER.—The nomination day is fixed for
Wedneday next, and the poll for the following day; there
are three candidates, Mr. J. B. Carter (liberal), Sir J. B.
East (conservative), the outgoing members, and Mr. Bul-
pett (liberal), new candidate.
CALNE.—The Earl of Shelburne, son of the
Marquis of Lansdowne, has issued an address to the elec.
tors of this borough, soliciting a renewal of their confidence.
LYMINGTON.—There aro four candidates in the
field for the borough of Lymington, viz., the two present
members (Mr. Mackinnon and Mr. Hutchins), Sir John
Rivett Carnac, and Mr. G. Hudson. The two former
offer themselves for re-election on the Liberal interest, the
other two gentlemen as supporters of Lord Derby's
government.
HEREFORD CITY.—AII the candidates Sir R.
Price and Col. Clifton (free-traders) and Mr. Meyrick
(Derbvite)—declare to go to the poll.
BEWDLET.— The contest between Sir Thomas
Wilmington (liberal) and Mr. Soudan (freetrade con-
servative) will, as usual here between two rival parties,
be a clam one, and already there are symptoms of a return
to those gross excesses which called for the petitim not very
long ago.
MARLOW.—A correspondent states that Mr. W. G.
Romaine, of the Temple, has started on the liberal interest
in opposition to Mr. T. P. Williams sad Col. Knox.
WINDSOR.—One of the largest and most enthu-
siastic political meetings ever held in the royal borough,
took place at the Theatre, 011 Friday night. The meeting
was addressed by Mr. Grenfell, Captain Seymour, and
others;-and a reacilutioa, pledging the electors present to
use their utmost endeavours to secure the return of Messrs
Grenfell and Ricardir, was carried by acclamation.
DROITWICII.--The writ for this little borough is
ont, and Thursday next is fixed for the nomination and
return. The Right Hon. Sir John S. Pakington, her Ma-
jesty's Colonial Secretary, is the only candidate in the field,
and no opposition is expected to his return on Thursday.
The constituency numbers 367 only.
—Citstmanwsw.—Next Thursday is the day ap-
pointed for the nomination for Cheltenham. The two
candidates, Mr Craven Berkeley and Sir Willoughby Jones,
declare to
_r to the poll.
EAST WORCESTERSIIIRE.—The nomination is fixed
for Tuesday week, the 13th instant, at Droitwiels, the re-
tuning borough. Mr. Clive, who was put forward by the
protectionists, having retired to Ludlow, the old members,
the Hon. Captain Rushout, • supporter of the present
ministry and Mr. J. H. 11. Foley, • free-trader, will, in all
probability, be returned again, without opposition.
WORCESTER.—The new candidate, Mr. Huddle-
sten, has addressed the electors at • public meeting. lie
says he is a conservative and free-trader. The election
takes place on Wednesday.
I.ewv.4 LBoxill the I)erbyite candidate for
this borough, has beat • timely retreat.
NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE.—'The nomination is fixed
for Tuesday and the polling for Wednesday in this borough.
The contest between Messrs. Headlam, Watson, and
Blackett will, it is thought, be a very serious one : hut,
whoever may be defeated, Newcastle will have the satisfac
tion of being represented by two liberals in the nest par-
liament.
_

DURHAM (CITY).—Mr. Grainger is considered
quite safe. The contest will be between Mr. Atherton and
Lord " Dolly" Vane - bet, as muly of the conservatives
stand aloof from his lordship, Mr. Atherton hay probably
the better chance.
. . .

COLERAINE.—Lord Naas has published his ad-
dress. He recapitulates the Irish measure•, and the "good
intention." of his government, and says " The question
the constituencies of the United Kingdom are now called
upon to decide, is : whether the country is to be governed
on constitutional principles or not? Whether her Ma.
jeety's present ministers are to retain the confidence of the
nation, or are to be succeeded by some government taken
from the heterogeneous mats of their opponents, who will
agree on no one point, save determined hostility to every-
, thing that Is conservative. I have no doubt that you will
nobly bear your part in the coming struggle. You have
always supported the great principles of civil and religious
liberty—of loyalty to the sovereign, and of constitutional
freedom. In me you will find a firm though humble advo-
cate of these greet principles." Mr. Kennedy has with-
drawn from the contest in this borough, finding that the
influences brought to bear upon the electors would render
the result doubtful.

DUNDALK.—The Freeman says :—We regret to
find the split in the liberal rank still continues in Dundalk.
Messrs. Bowyer and Gartlan—both standing on the same
principles—still continue an internecine warfare. Why do
not the electors take the matter into their own hands, and
force the weaker party to resign ? It will require all the
united strength of the liberal party to defeat Lord Jocelyn.
OUNGARVAN.—It is stated that Mr. J. F. Maguire
has withdrawn from the contest here, and Mr. B. ('Fla-
herty, the new libelist candidate, will be returned without
difficulty.
KILICENNT.—Lord James Butler has addressed
the electors of this county on protectionist principles.
Smoo.—Mr. Sheriff Swift has apologised to the
electors of Sligo for his inability to attend his canvas,
owing to the London election.
CORK COUNTY.—The Tories threaten a brace of
candidates is this county. but their NAM have not yet been
dtsulaed.
