IRELAND.

The Dublin Evening Post says—With regard to the
Irish elections, we have the satisfaction of stating that Ath-
lone has returned John O'Connell ; Armagh, William
Curry ; Cashel, the Attorney-General ; Drogheda, Sir VV.
Somerville ; Dundalk, Thomas Redington ; Londonderry,
Sir IL Ferguson ; Mallow, C. D. Jephson ; Carrickfergus,
Mr. Rennie. Eight Reformers, including the " disseat-
'llene' of two Tories—Matthew from Athlone, and Kirk
from Carrickfergus.
Dungannon has returned Lord Northland, the son of
the Earl of Ranfurley. His politics are stated to be
doubted ; but we imagine a " strong" Whig Government
may claim him.

The only unmitigated Tory returned is Meynell, for Lis-
burne—Lord Hertford's pocket borough of Lisburne.
We shall refer to the other places still in contest by-
and-bye.
The majority for O'Connell and Hutton, we have the
gratification to add, is momentarily increasing. It will be
observed that, in the above return, the booths in which the
Tory strength lay with freemen—W, for instance—west
and Hamilton are nearly exhausted, whilst they are lag-
ging behind in M, li, C, D, K, and Q, &c.

- Ono o'Clock.—The Reform Majority still rapidly in-
creasing. Amongst those who voted for O'Connell and
Hutton to-day are Baron Richards and James Pim, sen.
Half-past-Two.—Majority for O'Connell and H utton, 82.
Four o'Clock.—O'Connell and Hutton are now in a ma-
jcrity on the gross poll of nearly 20.

SECOND DAT.-AUG. 4, 11 A.M.

Huddersfield
Yestorday passed over tolerably peaceable. There were
occasional contests in the streets, and a few windows
broken ; but the Tories, backed by Oastler's mob, were
cowed and abashed by our own independent clothiers pour-
ing in from the neighbouring districts, decked with the co-
lours of their favourite candidates, a great majority of them,
as you will see from the state of the poll at this station
being for Morpeth and Strickland. The deadly and un-
fortunate contest on the nomination day at Wakefield, last
Monday, has produced a paper war between the leaders of
the opposed parties ; but whoever examines impartially the
candid statements of Mr. Fawkes, with the laboured re-
plies of Mr. Becket Denison, and of Mr. Ja:res Wortley,
ex-Member for Halifax, would at once pronounce a verdict
in favour of the Orange party. Good men of every party
must regret these excesses, and ought to reproes them with
all their influence ; but, does it appear that the Tories
acted thus, when in one contest for this borough they sent
Mr. Clough, their solicitor, to pay 151. for fines and ex-
penses inflicted by the magistrates on the rioters, who were
secured in the disorder that occurred here this day week ?
Was it not, in fact, saying to the ignorant multitude—
"Go lads, we will pay th piper !"

The Blues have put out the following, as the General State
of the Poll, but it is manifestly incorrect :
Morpeth —.10,265 I Strickland-9,918 I W0rt1ey...9,551
The following, we believe, to be somewhat nearer the
truth :
