ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

DENLIN CITY.—The repeaters have at length filed on
their candidate, in the person of Mr. John O'Connell. His
chances are by no mesas good, and it surprises many their
he should run after the empty shadow of metropolitan repre-
sentation, while be can anchor securely in the ancient city of
Kilkenny.
FIFBEIIIRE.—No public intimation of opposition to Capt.
Wemyss.
HAM/ MOTES KtiROML—Mr. Balfour has retired, but
Sir J. W. Drummond has started on the conservative in-
terest in his stead. If after a careful scrutiny Mr. Balfour
found that the chances were against him, it is scarcely to be
expected that Sir J. W. Drummond will be more suciessful.
Sir James dates his letter from the Carlton Club, a place in
bad odour in the provinces. and with somewhat of novelty
he prefixes " P. S." to the last paragraph cf his address—
being probably the first time that a poses4ripl has been
inserted in the body of a document. Sir li. R. Y. Davie
may be regarded so the likely member.

the candidate for London, has been ac:ively canvasaing this
borough during the past week, and is stated to have been so
well received as to have every chance of success.
KILKENNY CITY.—Mr. John CrConnili's withdrawal
leaves an opening in this stronghold of repeal. Nor are can-
didates wanting. Many would Heck to so quiet and cheap
a seat, but it is sale Mr. Patrick Costello, formerly Clerk of
the Rolls, and now a retired pensioner on aomo 6001. a year,
la likely to be :he most favoured.
jiiI.XII4NT COUNTY.—A Mr. Greene, a retired officer,
sail native of the county, will contest the representation on •
repeal principles. There is no chance whatever of a con-
onwative.
