THE ELECTIONS.

• PORTSMOUTH, Monday. —At twelve o'clock this day
the nomination took place of candidates to represent
this borough in Parliament. The Mayor, Andrew
Nance, Esq., presided ; and the candidates, Lord
Monck and Mr. Serjeant Gaselee addressed a rabble of
about 500 persons from the balcony of the Guildhall,
fronting the High-street. The usual vulgar jokes were
passed, and each candidate did his best to make an im-
pression upon the mob. On a show of hands being called
for, about 300 were held up for Lord Monck, and 200
for Mr. Serjeant Gaselee ; whereupon Wm. Grant,
Esq., dernandel a poll on behalf of Serjeant Gaselee,
and which will commence to-morrow (Tuesday).
TAMWORTIL—The appointment of Sir Robert Peel
to be one of the Lords of the Admiralty will occasion a
vacancy in this borough. The writ moved for in the
House of Commons on Friday night has duly arrived at
its destination. It is not anticipated that there will be
any opposition to the re-election of the hon. baronet.
CAVAN.—Mr. Henry Grattan has declined the pro-
posed honour of allowing himself to be put in nomina-
tion for the vacant seat in the county Cavan.

NEW MEXIOO.—From New Mexico we have reports
that the Indians were becoming exceedingly trouble-
some. At Pueblo, on the 25th of December, 14 men
were massacred by the savages, and several women and
children carried off. The Ist Dragoons had a fight with
a party of Indians at Sacramento Mountain on the 25th
of January, when twelve of the latter were killed. Capt.
Henry W. Stanton and three privates, however, were
slain by the Indians. Lieut. Sturges completely routed
a party of Apaches 60 miles from Santa Fe, and re-
covered a number of stolen cattle.
LIVERPOOL, Monday.—The Tory party have selected
Sir S. G. Bonham, Bart., K.C.8., as their candidate,
and a requisition to him is in course of signature. Sir
George arrived here yesterday. The Liberals are get-
ting up a requisition to Mr. James Wilson, Vice-Presi-
dent of the Board of Trade and Paymaster f the Forces,
and, as he has friends on both sides, Tory and Liberal,
his- election is not improbable.
