ELGIN Biatona.—Sir A. L. Hay wee sae of the few mem-
bers who voted against the education mime, and he has
been defending his conduct by the plea, d k Baines, that his
vote was an instance of the " warmth " of his attachment to
_ _
education.

The supervision of the Elgin academy would be
a touchstone for the sincerity of this opinion.
0 totreneren.—lt is reported that Mr. John Phillpotts,
liberal, will resign, and that Mr. W. P. Price, of Tibberton
Court, has been requested to come forward.
Kwaneenoaorom.—Mr. Lawson has addressed the elec-
tors of this borough, to contradict the report which had been
enalated, that he had abandoned the intention of con-
king the seat at the forthcoming election. He adds, that
the support which he has received makes him rely with
essidesse on the remit of a poll.
IsaßDS.—Yesterday, a public meeting of electors, favour-
able Mae re-ideetion of Wm. Beckett, Esq., was held in the
lifenteha. N.Hall, Esq. presided ; and after a brief pre-
lim's's., Aim J. Gott, Esq., proposed a resolution, de-
claring, that li die absence of great constitutional questions,

Cirr.-11r. John Olklia will net Mire from
the repneentation of this city.
ROXIIVROESHIRE.—Contrary to all expectation there is a
likelihood that Mr. Elliott, the liberal member, will walk
the erne. It is dangerous tampering with stereotype
opinnee—the tory party having seen protection discarded
from the creed of their leaders have got soured, and will
rather, apparently, let a thorough liberal get in than coquette
with hermaphrodite Peelism.
STAFFORDSHIRE, NORTH.—It is rumoured that the Hon.
Frederick Gough, brother of Lord Calthorpe, is to le brought
forward in opposition to Mr. Buller, but nothing certain is
known en the subject.
SLloo.—The Sligo Champion states that Mr. Ormsby
Gore will have to contest his seat for the county. The can-
didates suggested are Sir Ralph Cox e Booth, on whose
benevolent exertions Mr. Ltbouchere heaped each deserved
panegyrics, and Mr. J. Wynne. of Hanlewood. Both are
conservatives ; but as the constituency affords no hope of a
more liberal selection, the two named are among the least
objectionable to be chosen.
Vnettow.—The tonics have persuaded Col. Acton to
contest this county.
WARWICKSHIRE, NORTH.—Our correspondent at Bir-
mingham says—" It would be useless to disguise the fact
that the liberal interest is net set strong enough to return
two members, or certainly the will is good to turn out Mr.
Newdegate, whose conduct has disgusted some of his best
friends."

A Currency Reform Association has been formed
in Paisley. The members allege that their 001111Bla-
nity has peculiarly suffered from the "pernicious
workings of the present system," which is, perhaps,
true to some extent: but surely something deeper
than currency is at work when the Reformer tells us
that the state of trade in Paisley is such as to throw
large numbers of the weavers out of employment, and
that the frequency of such an occurrence of late, and
the great dearth of provisions, has reduced them to
a condition which utterly unfits them to provide for
themselves or their families without public support.
In the present state of the law, and the mode of as-
sessment, the burden is more than can be borne by
the landlords of house property, a majority of whom
do not realise 50 per cent. of their nominal rental,
from which they have to pay all public burdens,
having little more than 30 per cent, of rental out of
what they have to pay interest on mortgagee (unfor-
tunatelyvery numerous), and keep np their property.
In these circumstances to fasten the maintenance of
the unemployed on the proprietors of houses, how-
ever well meant, would be little else than a confisca-
tion of the property of the whole of the smaller, and
many of the larger, proprietors.

LORD DUNDONALD A SCOTCH REPRESENTATIVE PEER:
We understand that at the approaching general election
there is every probability that the Earl of Diundonald will
be proposed as one of the sixteen representative peers. Apart
from all political considerations, we should earnestly hope
that the brilliant, though, alas! chequered history of this
hero, combined with the recent and emphatic tribute to his
merit received at the hands of his sovereign, will influence
our Scottish peerage to follow it up by placing his honoured
name on their illustrious roll to the imperial parliament.
Sure we are that such an act will he duly appreciated by the
nation, and more especially by the fellow-countrymen of the
renowned Cochrane.—Ccaedonion Mercury.
Hertatno TRADE. Wica, Jcsß 17. During the
past week 376 barrels of herrings have been landed here
from Stornoway, Lochbroom, and Scalloway. A boat from
Scarlet trade another attempt, with hooks, on Friday laat,
and was successful, having brought ashore eight score of
splendid herrings, all of which, however, ware used for bait.
Every night new, until the arrival of the proper season,
which is close upon us, a number of boats will be out with
the hooks. Banff.—During the past week, the fishermen
in our neighbourhood have been pesuliarly successful.
Large takes of skate and turbot have been effected by
those of Macduff and Whitehilla. A beat's crew, belonging
to the former place, obtained in one night as many white tish
as allowed of nearly 19 dozen being distributed to each man.

MELANCHOLY PIT ACCIDENT.—On Monday morn-
ing last three men, named Brown, Merry, and Nelson, de-
scended No. 4 pit Drumpallar, for the purpose of commencing
the operations of the day. Merry had charge of the Davy
lamp and of the pit workings, and on reaching the bottom of
the pit Merry ordered Nelson to proceed in one direction of
the pit, w h:ch he considered clear and safe, while he explored
a different line. Nelson had net proceeded far from where
Brown was seated when a tremendous explosion took place,
bringing down the roof and sides of a portion of the pit in its
ravages. Brown was killed, while Merry and Nelson escaped
with several contusions and burning*. Merry's ordering
Nelson to advance in a doubtful direction, before being tested
by the Davy lamp, was the cause of the accident.—Airdrie
Luminary.
