YARNIMAII, JUICr. 4.—We are full of bustle, in ntiticiisx.
lion of the dissolution of Parliament. OM. twit Pilenibtas
Mealtrs. Ltictin and Loftus, hive declared their jilts mittun to
offer themselves again, and have consequently cunt/mooed
an active canvass. Is opposition to these gent lemen, Messrs,
Anson and C. E. Rumbold have offered themselves, on what
are called "independent principles." 'd'e ■re sorry to say,
that, min Tuesday evening, ns Messrs. Anson and Itionliol4
were entering the town, accompanied by a notorious ravel.
Bade, owing to the bustle sod confusion of the moment, lk ve-
va! accidents occurred. Twu oleo with broken Is gs, one
with broken ribs, and a number with slight bruiser amid
scratches.

Colonel Millie has accepted an incitatiou to offer himself
oa the Whir interest a Candidate fur the city of Bristol, in
the room of Mr. Protheroe, who has declined • contest, is
consequence of his having lost his popularity.
It is now (says The Tyne Afereery), folly determined to
invite the Honourable Henry William Scott, son of the Lied
Choatelgor, to offer himself at the ensuing geuelat rlrcrar•
as • candidate fur the reprisentution of Newcistle; and au
doubt is entertained that he will accept of the invitation„
and be rcturued. Sir Mathew White Ridley is trite certain
of his diction.

Devonshire will be stiougly contested ; the friends of
Lord Ebringtim Mite been actively engaged fur aurae time,
in taking measures to FIT/Ire his election. Mr. Halliard has
been Winced to come forward by the promises of the Tiiry
party to bring I in wuhout any considerable expense--
Sir Thomas *clawd again offers himself to the acclors, as a
steady supporter. of Ministeri.
In the city of Exeter, the re-election of Mr. Cooirtimay is
emishlered is certain. Mr. Newman is opposed by Mr.
Northmure, who a ill lint appear at the pull, but his friends
are active and confident of success. We have heard nothing
of our late High Sheriff for some time, we suppose he has
wisely given in.

The candidates for the honour of representing the Borough
of Plymouth in the neat Parliament, are, Sir William Con.
grove, Sir C. M. Pole, and T. B. Mal tin, Esq. Comptroller
of the Navy. The latter is a new candidate; Sir William
rongreve was lately elected in the room of Sir Benjathin
Bloomfield.
lu Cornwall, the present County Members will hh re-
turned without opposition ; but the unpafranized BhiOughs
ire almost all in a bustle.
At Peuryn four interests, to use the technical borough
phraseology, have been started. A Noble Lofd, two Ba-
ronets, and a Commoner, contend for the hottuorof returning
one or both Members. We know little of the prospects of
either party ; nor do we feel any interest in the event.
At Grampuund, a complete revolution has take* place.
Two of the 'principal managers were some time since ac.
eased of retaining more than their just share of the Pio-
portion which belongs to the Borough, of the fire millions
which The Courier says will be spent by the candidalis
throughout the kingdom, during the election. The freemen,
therefore, took the maitre into cousideralion, and st tit a
deputation to town to look for two good 1111(31 ; slid, it
seems have been found, and the managers have been left
to settle with a certain Barone', as well as they can.
At Tregony, Catnelford, and other places, the same g ms
is playing.—(Cornwall Gazette.)
Wilke Fawkes, Esq. of Farnley Hall, in this county, it
is said; will be nominated a caudidite fur Westminster.—
(Fork Hcrald..) _

Ou Tuesday last, a public meetiug was held at Liverrit!,
when it was pnanlinously resolied, that the Earl of St-lion
was a fit and proper person to represent that borough su
Parliament. A subscription was immediately entered into
to defray the expenses of the election.
ENNIS. JUNK 1.-It seems certain that a dissolution of
Parliament will take place before the conclusion of the per-
sent mouth. One of the present Members for this comity,
Sir Edward °tries, Dhrt. and the Member for the bur,,ugh,
the Right Hon. Vesey Fitzgerald, will he returned, it is
said, without a Wriggle, to represent the county of Clare,
in the ensuing Parliament. Lord Francis Cony:minim de-
clines a contest in consideration of being returned for the
borough. Such are the rumours in circulation, whether tine
or false we cannot say, but the probability of the statement
seems likely to be trerified.--(Clare Journal).
