Mr. Ryan prudes. to nixed his successful rival
in the Limerick election by a petiticn ; and a
tenant right meeting, at which the alibis:et
of the election will be folly discussed, is to be
held in Limerick tt-slay. But there is no deny
log the fact that the defeat has covered the league
with oonfiteion and disappointment, and that there
was some misoalculation in the matter. It was confi-
dently stated that the oonstituency of the county did
not exceed 460; yet we find that nearly 670 votes
have been recorded—a small number, it is true, for a
large agricultural county like Limerick; but it was
plain that the constituency was larger than the te-
nant league reckoned on.
The Limerick Chronicle says: " Mr. Christopher
D. Carleton, of Delgany, Wicklow, has been watch-
ing in perm the progress of the county election, to
NM what chance there may be for himself as candi-
date in the event of another vacancy. Mr. Carleton
is a tenant light man, sad had a notion of oontest-
log the city also, but has withdrawn in favour of his
friend, Colonel Sir Charles O'D.innelL"
Lord Northland has once more resigned the repre-
sentation of Dungannon, or, at least, announced his
intention of doing so at the meeting of parliament.
The Fiteemon's Journal says : "It is understood
that an amicable derangement is agreed on between
the City of Dublin Company and the Chester andl
Holyhead Railway, by which the fleet of the latter iai
to be purchased by the former, and the trains and '1
steam vessels from Holyhead are to run in conjunction
with each other."
The same joicenal, in its commercial review, has
the following remarks on the remarkable revival of
rgilway speeslatien in this country:
The wilt Spesdadaa to railway shame which has been
igaiberies elleawrla for setae time has become more fast

Ms Southern Reporter mentions the following
enesseaging fact on the authority of Dr. O'Brien, of
Catrigaline:

a friend, eoenniesieeed to make the jewelry oa behalf of au
raffish firm, revealing the eligibility as to site and water
supply, of two setahliebnuets, now we believe idle, in the
asUtibourhood of Carrigaline,• with a view to their cones?.

I simmered by Dr. O'Brien, and from the statement of his
'friend he (menden it nearly certain, that the partite, on
whoa* behalf the application was made, will at onee enti r

their capital in the proposed undertaking. This certainly is
a chasing prospect lot the people of Minolta and Kerrie
