EnNEss-situtE.—The candidates for the re-
lresentation of this county, Mr. Charles Grant and
'lll% Macleod, of Macleod, have both paid their re-
Teets to the freeholders resident in this quarter,
tnd the result, we understand, is decidedly in favour
)f Mr. Gout. According to present appearances,
here is every prospect of the Right Hon. Gentle-
nan being again returned by a considerable majority.
En the course of his canvass, Mr. Macleod has made
tbundant use of the names, and implied patronage
his MajeAty's Ministers, assuring the electors
that by votisig for him they will confer a personal
favour on the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert
Peel ! We know also, that most of the circulars
uldressed by Mr. Macleod to the freeholders were
Cranked by the Home Secretary, a proceeding
wholly unnecessary on the score of economy, as Mr.
Macleod was himself a Member.--Inverness courier.'
The re-election of Sir :J W. Mackenzie for
Ross-shire, end Lord F. L. Gower for Sutherland,
is considered certain. Mr. Traill, of Itobbister, it
is believed, will also be returned for Orkney, with-
out opposition; as also the Hon. Captain Campbell
(brother of Earl Cawdor), for Nairnshire, and the
Hon. Colonel F. NV. Grant, for Morayshire.

(From a Private Correspondent of a Morning Paper.)
DUBLIN, JULY 21.—You are aware, ere this,
nerhaps, of the resignation of Mr. George Dawson
for Derry. The Beresfords have succeeded against
one of the Duke of Wellington's Secretaries, in this
county.
The agency of this foul conspiracy against the
peace of the country, as well as against the preten-
sions of an individual who has more private friends
than any public man I know, was conducted, under
the auspices of the Primate, by two sinecure place-
men, Alderman John Beresfortl and his brother,
Mr. Barre Beresford. These gentlemen are joint
storekeepers of Dublin, at a salary of 5,000/, a-year.
They do not hold the place by patent, but by a
Treasury minute; anti it may therefore be revoked
at will. They are also liable, under an express Act
of Parliament, to lose the place; and further, they
are obnoxious to a penalty of 5001. for interfering,
as revenue officers, in an election. But if the
Government does not choose to punish these re-
fractory gentlemen for attempting to mar the cause-
quence of the great measure of last year, anti perpe-
mating religious and political discord in the country,
their family are likely, us I hinted to you before, to
receive a lesson in the south that they will have
cause to remember. Mr. O'Connell has addressed
the electors.of the county of Waterford, and Lord
George Beresford will have a Ftruggle to make in
that county very dissimilar in its character, and I think,
too in its consequences, from the last. Mr. O'Con-
nell's friends have only to publish Mr. Dewson'e
address to Londonderry. But the former gentleman
will stand also upon his own merits with the county
of Waterford.
The election for the county of Clare will be an ex-
traordinary one, and very expensive. Mr. O'Gormun
Halton made his entree on Saturday last from Lime-
rick, midis stated to have been enthusiastically re-
ceived by the people. There will positively be 0
warm contest, and four candidates---the flight Hon.
V. Fitzgerald, Meatus. ll'Namara, O'Gorman
Mahon, and O'Brien.
A requisition from the Chamber of Commerce
has just been eent oil' to Mr. Dawson to stand for
the city of Dnblin.
Mr. Sheil's prospects of success for the represents-
thou of Louth are becomitig every day brighter. He
left Dublin to-day for Dundalk, to meet his friends,
Mr. O'Connell passed through Clonmel on
Tuesday, and is now in Waterford canvassing the
county. The conduct of the Beresfords to Mt
George Dawson in the north, it is said, will prove
fatal to the pretension of Lord George Beresford in
his native county.
The county of Galway will be contested. The
present Member, Mr. Lambert, is a favourite, ant
likely to stand a fair chance of success, had he not
been the nominee of Lord Chturicarde, whose uncle.
Sir John Burke, has also offered himself to the
electors. By the return of these gentlemen, me
objectionable as they are personally, it is considered
that this great county night be made a borough.
Mr. Daly is unpopular, particularly on account 01
his conduct to the town of Galway, the representa-
tion of which he contests with the townsmen. Mr.
T. Martin, the son of the late Member, possesses
the greatest interest in the county, but his freeholders
are not registered the legal time. They speak of
Lord Dunlo, the son of the Earl of Clancarty. But
what was called the Protestant interest is not suf-
ficiently strong in this county to induce his Lordship
to go to the hustite!s with any prospect of success.
For the town of Gelwey the candidates are Mr.
Valentine Blake, a son of Sir Thomas; and Mr.
O'Hara, the son of the Recorder. It is imagined
that the independent interest will ultimately sue-
coed, though, perhaps, on a petition.
DUBLIN*, ATLI' 2J.---Never was there such ae
appearance of plenty as the crops present. We are
already beginning to reap the benefits of the pros-
pect. Potatoes have declined almost as rapidly us
they advanced last month ; and our alluring have
been, in a great degree, dissipated. But in the
mountainous districts, along the coast, the privations
still continue.

CITY OU DUBLIN.--A new candidate is likely to
appear in the arena in the person of Mr. George R.
Dawson, the Secretary of the Treasury. There it
little doubt, I really think, of his return. Mr. IL
Grattan will contest the plan strenuously with the
corporation. The struggle will be between himself
and Mr. George Moore. But the Recorder Will
have many votes.
COUNTY Ktr..nAßE.—lf Mr. Robert Latouche
had not resigned, there would be no contest for this
county. Three or four candirlates are already in the
livid—General Cockburn, Mr. Moore O'Farrell,
Mr. Roberts, of Solymount, and, it is said, Sir
William Hoste.
CousTY Murree.--Notwithstanding the demon-
strations made of hostility against Sir Marcus Sons-
inerville, there will be no contest in this county.
CousTr Os' %VESTIIIEATII.—It is feared by his •
friends that Mr. Tube will be obliged to resign to •
M. Chapman.

CotwrY WEXPORD.-it it supposed that Lord
Valontia and Mr. Chichester will he elected; but
Mr. Roe and Mr. Waddy will come to the hustip.
COUNTY or DowN.--The Marquis of Downshire
Was always sure of ono tnan in- this county. It is
apprehended, however, at present, that Lord Arthur
Hill will be obliged to res►gn to Mr. Porde, who,
and Lord Castlereagh, will be the new members.
COUNTY A NTRIAL—Lord Hertford used always
to return his man for title county.
.Ile has one up
for it, at present, Mr. Maedonnell, the husband of
the Countess of Antrim, who has herself eonsider-
