establishment of the Irish church, ho is prepared to

the removal of any anomalies or defects which may be
found to exist in the Irish portion of the united church,
and for rendering it more efficient and useful."
Fain DEVON.—The liberals, it is oonfldentiv ru-
moured, intend to contest this division of the e-outity
against the conservative candidates, LOrd Ctiltrteney and
Sir L. Palk. Mr. Wade, a retired barrister, is spoken of
as one liberal candidate ; while Mr. Dixon, of Winalade
near Exeter, brother of the Timber for Birmingham, has
-b
been named as the second.

-----
Ewer EssEx.—Sir Thomas. B. Western, Bart.'
M.P., and Sir Thomu Abdy, Bart., the liberal candidate;
for the eastern division of tho county of Eases, have
attended meetings at Witham, Steeple Bumpetead, and
other plum during the hurt few days, and resolutions in
their favour have been adopted. At the meeting at
Witham the veer of the pariah (the Rev. Canon
Bremerton, brother of Mr. Bramston, formerly the con-
servative member of the county) made a strong speech in
their favour.

EAST RE-11'0111).—M.. Febombe, the liberal
member, last night addressed a crowded meeting of the
electors at the Corn Exchange. It was almost swank
nioualy resolved to support him in his candidature., and
the meeting declared itself strongly in favour of Mr. Glad-
stone's policy on the Irish church question.
HACHNEY.—Last night three of the candidates
for the representation of Hackney addressed meetings con-
vened in different parts of the borough. Mr. Charles Heed
met a large body of electors and non-electors in Ann•e-
place Schools, Pritchard's-mad. Hackney-mad, and was
received with much enthusiasm. He addressed them at
some length, advocating, among other principlea,the estab-
lishment of perfect religious equality in Ireland and the
consequent withdrawal of all state grants from every
religious denomination in that country. His motto he
raid was '• Freedom iu Trade and Liberty in Religion." At
the Shoreditch Town Hall, Mr. John Hohns gave an ex-
1, isition of his political opinions; and at Horton Market,
Col. Dickrou addressed a crowded meeting iu the open air.
At each meeting the candidate received a vote of confi-
dence. Colonel Dickson's election committee acknowledge
the receipt of 10/.. the gift of Mr. John Stuart Mill, M.P.,
to the fund which is being raked for returning their
candidate free of expense to himself.
LEEDS.-31r. W. St. James Wheelhouse, bar-
rister, has come forward in the conservative interest as a
candidate for Leeds, at the request, he says, of more than
one deputation of his fellow-townsmen. His address has
been published, and he declares himself a supporter of the
government. _ _

Lot;TH.—We are able to announce that Lora Ht.
Lawrence. ha • satisfied himself that the continued
candidature of three liberals for Louth must inevitably
eventuate in the candidature and probable return of a
conservative, determined that he would be no party to
any such catastrophe, and, as the junior candidate, has
withdrawn from the contest rather than risk the evil he
foresaw as the result of a division in the liberal ranks.
The noble lord has, in this wise and patriotic course, set
an example which, we hope, will be followed throughout
the country where a danger of division presents itself.—
Freeman's Journal.

MID-CHESIIIRE.—In compliance with a nume-
rouslpe*ned 'requisition, Mr. Warren has issued an

Lancaster on Saturday, and made some pointed and
vigorous references to one of his opponents, Colonel

interests of that party to what he be,, hs was a
true conservative, would be the interests of the country."
NOTTINGHAM.—The friends of Mr.Bernal Osborne
announce that he will address hie constituency in a few
days. The reason he has not addressed them before is in
consequence of severe illness. He has refused a request,
it is said, which has been made to him to stand for
another constituency. Mr. Merriman has just issued as
address stating that the reception he has met with at
three large public meetings is a sufficient justification for
his becoming a candidate.

men soiled in an open ordinary ship's boat from White-
haven to Ramsey, and when off the hitter port they were
caught in the gale, and finding it implausible to hoist sail
they east anchor and drifted before the wind. During the

fury of the waves, and at one time it was in imminent
peril of being run down by the Lila of Ilan steamer

miraculous.
