D V NOANNON.—A new candidata hr for this
borough in the person of Mr. Alexander Mackeatie Shaw,
of Belfast. Mr. Shaw ie a conservative, and a gentleman of
considerable influence in the north,
DU JILIN (Crrx).—There are still rumours that two liberal
candidates will start for Dublin ; but nothing positive has
transpired on the subject. The present tory members are
actively canvassing.
Duals Uttivrmarrc.—lt is difficult to speculate upon
this election. The prevailing opinion is, that Mr. Shaw
will be run very close by Mr. Napier or Mr. M'Cullsgh, and
the respective friends of the two latter are canyusing with
much energy.
Ermsoustott.—Mr. Charles Cowan has consented to stand
against Mr. Macaulay. It is not theught:that there will be
any opposition to Mr. Gibson Craig.
Cianscoes.—The Voluntary Church Association sum-
moned both candidates to a meeting. Mr. Dunlop answered
to the satisfaction of the great majority. Lord Melgund did
not appear in person, but sent a letter.
GLASGOW. —Our correspondent writes (Ju1y..22) : " It is
not easy to guess how our election is to go. Our constitu-
ency, like that of all great trailing towns, is broken up into
• multiplicity of small circles, who have little in common.
The diveriity of religious communions, and other means of
combination by common pursuits, enhances the difficulty of
any attempt to estimate the predominant sentiment. In
favour of Mr. Macgregor are hie comprehensive statesmanlike
views; against him, the want of personal acquaintance with
the mass of electors. Messrs. Dennietoun, Dixon, and Baltic
have all large numbers, who have known them long, and
are reconciled to them as ' old familiar faces.' Mr. Mee-
gregor comes amongst us for the first time, and there are
many who cannot take kindly to a stranger, whose ways are
new to them. This would not decide the election if the elec.
tors divided into two distinct hostile parties ; but it is a trial
of strength between two sections of the liberals leaders. Many
from honest conviction, many from a crotcbetty indepen-
dence and love of their own way; many on the principle
of " the old man, son, and ass," will give one vote to the
Dennistoun and Dixon, and one to the Macgregor and Hestia
party. Even with this, were I sure that the game would be
fairly played, I believe that Mr. Macgregor and the Provost
would head the poll. But from what I bare seen—not of
the gentlemen who are the ostensible leaders among Mr.
Dennistoun's friends, but of some of their agents--at other,
mainly municipal, elections, I expect to see this game
played :—Macgregor and Heade will be the favourite candi-
dates. Personal friendship will give the latter the majority
of split votes, and place him at the head of the poll. As
soon as the underlings and agents of the Dennietoun party
see this, they will throw Dixon overboard, and strain
every nerve to get split votes for their candidate. By this
means they may succeed in getting Mr. Beetle returned at
the head of the poll, and Mr. Dennistouu second. Mr. Dixon
is a shrewd man ; he knows how, on former occasions, those
at whose instance he now comes forward, laboured to jockey
him out of being nominated for Glasgow; be knows how
many of them behaved in the Renfrewshire election.
Strange that he should put faith in them now. But when a
long.cherisbed wish is put within a men's grasp, even the
most wary are apt to become blind. Though 1 think this
game may be attempted, I have however this comfort, that it
only requires to be exposed in order to be defeated. The
personalities which have been the staple ware of the sup-
porters of Mame. Dixon and Dennistoua from the beginning,
and the daily increasing bitterness of these candidates them-
selves. leads me to believe they are conscious of being weak,
and that in a short time I shall be able to wish you joy on
the return of Messrs. Hastie and Macgregor."

HALIFAX.—The contest will rest chiefly between Mr.
Miall, the radical, and Mr. Edwards, the conservative. The
re-electien of the Chancellor of the Exchequer appears to be
certain, and in all probability his colleague will be Mr.
Edwards. _ . _

HERRPORD (Cirv).—Mr. Serjeant Glover, of the Oxford
circuit, commenced a canvass on Wednesday in the tory in-
terest. He addrvssed the inhabitants from the window of
the committee-room in the evening. During him speech the
Catholic priest resident here made some observation*, which
led to a considerable uproar, and ultimately two policemen
were necessitated to protect him from the violence of the
crowd. Sir It. Price and Mr. H. H. Clifford (chairman of
the county sessions) began to-day their canvass, in company
with members of tke town council and other gentlemen. The
dissenters met last night, and agreed that the two liberal
candidates are deserving of the support of the protestant
dissenters resident within this city.

Hovrtmooott.—Mr. Prendergut, of this circuit, has
sameart•et to ha lout t. mooa4motiout Cow oh.
Huntingdon. The learned gentleman has issued the following
address "To the Electors of the United Boroughs of
Huntingdon and Godmanchester. Gentlemen : Having
been requested to become • candidate for the honour of
representing in parliament your united boroughs, I have
cheerfully complied with that request. A detail of my
opinions upon the various political questions which have
agitated this country would be unnecessary and tiresome.
I advocate those principles which corned the reform
bill, and which placed the present government in office.
I am fully convinced of the necessity of applying the
principles of civil and religious liberty to all the
ultutions of this country. Should I be deemed
worthy the high honour of being one of your representatives,
I shall endeavour to attend to all matters affecting your
local interests, but more especially to those great questions
which concern alike the electors of these boroughs and the
people of England. I have the honour to be, gentlerien,
your obedient servant, MICHAEL PRENDRIWAST.
INVERNSAB BCROHIL—Mr. Kennedy, chairman of the
India and London Life Assurance Company, sad a liberal, is
to stand. He is said to be a nominee of Mr. Joseph Hume.
His chance against his liberal competitor, Mr. Matheson, is
small.
Saner.—Two liberals will start for this county, and an
active opposition to Mr. Herbert is being organised. The
new candidate is Mr. Daniel Cronin, jun.
LANCASHIRE (Souris). Considerable exertion an
making to form committees and place Mr. Entwiale before
the ekoton again, but with what success It is difficult at pre-
sent to ascertain.
LLEDIL—The division amongst the liberals in this
still continues, and there does not appear • shedbocridgl:
chance of its being healed before the day ot denies. Mr.
Sturge is in Leeds, and has met two or three polls meetings
of his supporters this week. Neither Mr. Memliall nor
Mr. Beckett have yet visited the skews, bat their
tire committees are busily engaged en behalf79Ae•
ultra-liberals boast of the many premises which Mr. Marge
has received, and they may he wM /Min more sopport on
the day of election from the liberale than Mr. Marshall will.
The latter, however, is mire to have the vela of many of
the conservatives, who will divide belleresa kat and Mr.
Beckett. The general opinion is, that Mr. Beckett sad Mr.
Marshall will be elected.
Leiciarsa.—lt is expected that Mr. Parker, barrister,'
will contest this borough on the conservative intend, against
Sir Joshua Wehnaley and Mr. Richard Gardner, the pre-
sent candidates.
LIMERICK COVNTT.—There sou a meeting of " the In-
dependent Club " of this county held on Tuesday, at which
a good deal of angry discussion arose. Resolutionl no
means unanimous wen adopted
we to support two repeslen,
in the persons of Mr. W. S. O'Brien and Mr. Caleb own',
the present members. From the aspect of affairs, and the
disposition to favour Mr. Monsen, a moderate conservative,
which was manifested, it is not improbable that he will be
returned.

No opposition.
