THE POTATO BLIGHT.—The Cork Examiner has the
following paragraph :—"A very cautious and reliable
correspondent informs us that the potato disease has
p eared in the vicinity of Skibbereen—as yet, however,
appeared
to no great extent."
THE WAGES MOVESIENT.—The workpeople at Glossop
and in that neighbourhood have turned out for an ad-
vance of wages, and from accounts received in Man-
cnester yesterday afternoon by electric telegraph, it is
apprehended that they will be led to the commission of
some acts of violence, should the roasters refuse to
grant them what they require at once.
REPRESENTATION OF CORE. The Cork Examiner
states, that Dr. Lyons, one of the most popular of the
citizens of Cork, has been pressed very strongly to come
forward as a candidate for the vacancy created by the
appointment conferred on Mr. Sergeant Murphy, but
that he has resisted every entreaty on the subject. No
popular candidate has yet offered himself.
