PREPARATIONS FOR THE GENE-

RAL ELECTION.

BERWICK-UPON-TWEED (2).—Sir Rufane Donkin will
stand again ; Mr. Hodgson, brother of Mr. Hodgson (since)
Hinde, the 'Tory Member for Newcastle, is not on the
Tory interest.
BEVERLEY (2).—Mr. Burton, the Liberal Member for
thii borongh, has published an address, stating his intention
not to offer himself again as a candidate on the approachiag
dissolution of Parliament.—Hull Observer.
BOSTON (2).—At Boston there will be a strong opposi-
tion ; but the attachment of the people to the Queen and
her Government will be strong enough to return Mr. Wilks
and Major Handley.
BRADFORD (2).—Mr. E. C. Lister has addressed the
electors, requesting a renewal of the trust reposed in him ;
and, in compliance with a requisition signed by 602 electors,
Mr. William Busfield, of Upwood, has declared himself a
candidate, avowing himself a friend to the general policy
of the present Government. As Mr. Hardy only polled
611 votes at the last election, we presume that he may bid
adieu to Bradford. W. Busfield, of Milner Hall, a young
Tory of more zeal than prudence, has also issued an ad-
dress offering himself.

BURY ST. EDMUND'S (2.)—There are two Tories in the
field—Lord Jermyn, one of the present Members, and the
Hon. Mr. Calthorpe. Lord Charles Fitzroy is the Re-
form candidate.

CAMBRIDGESHIRE (3).—The Marquis of Granby has left
to tiinvass the electors on the Tory interest.
- CAI&ERIBYRY (2).—The Right Hon. J. R. Lushing-
ton retires, and Messrs. Bradshaw and Gipps offer them-
selves as the candidates on the Conservative interest, whilst
the Reformers support their old Member, Lord A. Conyng-
ham, and also Mr. Villiers.

CrumEmma (2).—Mr. John Abel Smith, the present
Liberal Member, will a:ain offer himself ; he is not going
out of England, nor does he intend to resign.—llampshire
Telejraph.
CRICKLADE (2).—Mr. R. Gordon retires on account of
ill health, after twenty years' service, and two gentlemen
have started to supply his place—Ambrose Goddard, Esq.,
of Swindon, in the Conservative interest, and the Honour-
able Henry Howard, the son of the Earl of Suffolk, as a
supporter of Ministers. John Neeld, Esq., the sitting
Member also starts.
DEVIZES (2).—Captain J. W. Deans Dundas, the pre-
sent Member, will not be opposed at the forthcoming
election.

NORTH DEVON (2).—Sir T. D. Acland is the Tory
candidate to oppose the Hon. Newton Fellowes.
DURHAM, CITY (2).—Mr. Harland the Reform Mem-
ber, again offers himself ; and Mr. Granger opposes the re-
turn of the Tory, Hon. A. Trevor.
SOUTH ESSEX (2).—The two Tories here, Bramston
and Palmer, will not be allowed to walk over the course ;
Mr. Branfil is to be brought forward again by the Re-
formers, we hope with success.
EXETER (2).—Lord Courtenay does not seem inclined
to allow himself to be nominated ; and if he does not, Mr.
Divett will, it seems, be returned without opposition.
FLINTSHIRE ( I ).—An opposition is threatened to the
return of E. M. H. Mostyn, Esq., the Liberal represen-
tative of this county, unless he will support the Conserva-
tive candidate in the boroughs. Sir R. Glynne wrote to
Mr. Mostyn to this effect, and received a characteristic
and manly answer, declining to interfere with the free exer-
cise of the borough franchise.
GATESHEAD (l).—Mr. Surtees, who calls himself a
Constitutional Reformer, has informed the electors that he
shall proceed to the poll whenever the election takes place.
Mr. Cuthbert Rippon in his address calls upon the people
" to rally round their youthful Sovereign, and encourage
her by their support."
GLAMORGANSHIRE (2).—Lord Adare is expected to
offer himself.

HALIFAX (2) will return, we hope, without difficulty,
Mr. Charles Wood and Mr.Protheroe.:—Leeds Mercury.

NORTH II A NTS (2).—Mr. J. W. Scott, the present
member, has published an address to the electors, stating
that he feels that though he has hitherto supported Reform
measures he should be no longer justified in offering himself
as their representative, as he is opposed to the ballot, ex-
tension of the elective franchise, any organic change in the
constitution of the Upper House, the introduction of the
voluntary principle, and several other important measures
which are approved of by many of his supporters. Sir
William Ileatheote is a candidate. _ _ _

HASTINGS (2).-Mr. Holland stands in the room of Mr.
Elphinstone, who goes to Liverpool. The present member,
Mr. North, again offers himself ; and the Tories are anxious
for the return of the Right Hon. Joseph Planta. Mr.
Brisco is also a candidate.

HORSHAM (I).—Mr. Hurst, the present Reform Mem-
ber, has issued an address to the electors, as has also Mr.
Thomas Broadwood, the brother to the late Member for
Bridgewater.
HUDDERSFIELD (1) will again elect Mr. Ellice.
Irswicx (2).—Mr. Morrison retires, but his place will
be supplied by a sound Reformer.
WEST KENT (2).—Sir R. P. Geary, the Conservative
Member, has addressed the electors, soliciting a renewal of
the confidence reposed in him. Sir Edmund Filmer, of
East Sutton-place, has, in compliance with a numerously
signed requisition, offered himself, on Conservative princi-
ples, to oppose the return of Mr. Law Hodges, the present
Reform Member.

KIDDERMINSTER (l).--Mr. Philips retires, and his for-
mer (Tory) opponent, Mr. Godson, is in the field.
SOUTH LANCASHIRE (2).—Mr. Charles P. Grenfell
having declined to offer himself for South Lancashire on
account of the ill-state of his health, Mr. Edward Stanley,
of Cross-hall, Lancashire, has been applied to, and will be
brought forward on the Reform interest. There is ■o doubt
of his success.

LEOMINSTER (2).—Lord Hotham and Mr. John Ark-
wright, of Hampton-court, in that county, are canvassing
the borough on the Conservative interest, in opposition to
Mr. Bish and Mr. Wigram.
LEWES (2).—Sir C. Blunt has signified his intention of
again standing on the Reform interest, and there is every
probability of his being joined by another Reformer every
way worthy of him. The Tories are on the alert in sup-
port of the lion. Henry Fitzroy, and have sent a requisi-
tion to Captain Lyon, formerly M.P. for Seaford, to stand
with Mr. Fitzroy.

LINCOLN, CITY (2..)—Major Sir Edward Brackenbury
is expected to offer himself as the second Reform candi-
date. Mr. Bulwer, whose Parliamentary duties have up
to the present time prevented his arrival amongst us, is also
expected awl will immediately enter upon his canvass, of
the successful result of which, together with that of Major
13raekenbury, there is very little ground for doubt. Colonel
Sibthorp and Mr. Henry Ellis have arrived in this city,
and commenced an immediate canvass in the Tory interest.
The latter gentleman originally introduced himself to the
electors as a Reformer, promising we know not what if he
had been in Parliament in time past, but carefully avoiding
any explanation as to what he would do in time to come.
If any doubts lingered as to the real intentions of Mr.
Ellis, they are now removed, for he was accompanied in his
Journey hither by Colonel Sibthorp, the violent opponent
of all reforms, whose protege he appears to be.--Lincoln
Gazette.

NORTH LINCOLN (2.)—The Liberal cause will not be
without its champions. Lord Worsley, it is certain, stands
higher than ever in the estimation of the electors ; for he
has not only strengthened the confidence of his supporters,
but conciliated his opponents. We have not yet heard
who is to be the second candidate as a Queen's man ; but
we have no doubt one will be brought forward who will
Command the respect and support of the constituency ; and
we, therefore, beg to caution the electors against promising
their votes. Mr. Christopher (Dundas) has been men-
tioned as likely to stand in the place of Mr. Corbett (who
retires) ; but, besides being very little known in the county,
of which he is .a.new resident, the Ipswich bribery affair
hangs rather unpleasantly over his head, and will be sure to
be dinned in his ears by the free and independent electors.
—lbid.

SOUTH LINCOLN (2.)—An important meeting was held
at Boston on Wednesday last, at which resolutions, in sup-
port of Henry Handley, E3(l M P., at the ensuing elec-
tion, were voted.
LYMINGTON (2).—The sittin; Members, J. Stewart,
Esq., and W. A. Mackinnon, Esq., have issued addresses,
stating their intention to offer themselves again to the con-
stituency. It is said that the Radicals are endeavouring to
win over a brother of Capt. Frederick Marryat, R.N., to
espouse tl*.,•'nopciegs cause.
MIDDLESEX (2).—Both the present Members, Mr.
D, Yng and Mr, Hume, are candidates. Mr. Wood, of Lit-
tleton, the beaten Tory, 1,,-.11, it is thought, come forward
again 'with another Tory candidat•4.
,Io*
EWCASTLE-UNDER-LINg Peel has publicly
Mr. Ayshford
announced his retirement ; and in his place . right
Wise, who has considerable estates near the town, ....
of his wife, comes forward. He is a Devonshire gentlernan
of ancient family, and well known in the political circles of
that county.
NmeAsTLE-upot.r-TYNE (2),—Mr. Hodgson Hinde
again comes forward, as will also probably Mr. Blackett, of
