DUMFRIESSHIRE.

Mr. J. J. Hope Johnstone, M.P. for the county
of Dumfries, has issued an address to the electors,
in which he intimates that it is not his intention, on
the occasion of " the dissolution now so near," to
offer himself as a candidate for the representation of
the county. After alluding to the personal and local
reasons which have caused him reluctance and hesi-
tation in forming this resolution, he goes on to say—

" It is true that 1 enjoy as large an amount of health and
bodily activity as is usually accorded to men of my age, and
for this I am deeply thankful ; but still, however lightly the
hand of Timo may be imposed, it always leaves some im-
pression, and I feel that I am not as able for the duties of
Parliamentary life as I was. It is probable that the Par-
liament now about to be chosen will be subject to a much
heavier call on its time and attention than has been made
on the existing one for some years past, and possibly new
political combinations may give rise to keen conflicts on
important subjects, entailing an amount of attendance that
lam convinced I could not easily give. Under these cir-
cumstances, I feel that the best return I can make for your
long-continued confidence is at once to retire, and enable
you to select in my room a younger and more efficient man.
It is to me a great satisfaction that, except in this one par-
ticular, our connexion remains unsevered ; my whole inte-
rests are identical with your own, and I shall ever be ready
during my remaining years to join with you in continuing
to work out every proposal or project that is likely to be of
advantage to our district or for the benefit of the country
at large."

HELSTON.

Since Mr. Rogers, the sitting member for this
Cornish borough, announced his intended retire-
ment, both parties have been actively engaged pre-
paring for a struggle, and the leading Liberals
express themselves confident that they can return
their candidate, Mr. Adolphus W. Young, who is
certainly very popular among a large number of the
electors. The Conservatives state that they have
no fear as to the return of Major Grylls. Both
gentlemen have concluded a personal canvass. A
very close contest may be expected, and it is more
than probable that the Liberals will be able to wrest
this seat from their opponents, who have long held
it.

IPSWICH.
The Conservatives of Ipswich having started a

second candidate in addition to Mr. J. C. Cobbold,
M.P., the Liberals threaten reprisals by finding a
Liberal colleague for Mr. H. E. Adair, M.P. Mr.
Cobbold and Mr. Adair have been returned for
Ipswich since 1847, but both parties have always
made a fruitless fight of it at each dissolution. Mr.
Tidmas, of Sutton Bonington, near Loughborough,
is the second Conservative candidate ; the Liberals
have not yet announced their new champion.

WIGTOWN BURGHS.

Mr. Young, the Solicitoi:General, will in all pro-
bability be re-elected for the Wigtown Burghs
without opposition.

WIGTOWNSHIRE.

There is likely to bo a keen contest for the repre-
sentation of Wigtownshire, the sitting (Liberal)
member, Sir Andrew Agnew, of Lochnaw, being
opposed by Viscount Garlies, son of the Earl of
Galloway, in the Conservative interest.

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 1 per mille pm., and
the short exchange on London is 25.'..0 per .£1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appe..,s that gold is
at about the same price in London and Paris.
1 he course of exchange at New YOrk on London for bills st
50 days' sight is about 241 per cent., and the premium on
gold 127 per cent. At these rates thei eis ft small profit on
the iznpoi ta ion of go d fr An the Unite! States.
By adv;c;s from llamburg the price of gold Is 425 per marl
aad the short exchange on London. is 13.01 per .£1 sttriin .
Standard gold at the English Mint price ie, therefore, about
10tha per cent. dearer inndon thin in Hamburg.

THE NATIONAL GERMAN RIFLE MEETING.—
The second National German Ride Meeting will take place
in Bremen, on July 16. It promises to be of larger dimen-
sions than the first meeting, which took place in Frankfort
in 1862. A building has been erected in which as many as
4,000 persons can dine at the same time. The number
of targets will be 150. From Germans in Now York
$1,500 have been received to bo distributed as prizes ;
from Java, 1,000 guld. ; from Hayti, $500; and from
California (San Francisco), a nugget of gold worth $1,200.
CURIOSITIES OF THE POST-OFFICE.—Sir Rowland
Hill has shown that the whole nation may be benefited by
a reform which nt the same time benefits each of us indi-
vidually. In 1830, the last year of the old system, the
letters which passed through the Post-office were 70,000,000;
they were 240,000,000 in 1844, rose to 410,000,000 in 1853,
and will fully reach 700,000,000 in the present year. In
London alone the number of letters delivered in 1863 was
160,000,000, more than twice as many as in the whole
kingdom in 1839. There are now 1,100 receiving-houses
and letter-pillars in the metropolis, and more than 16,000
altogether; showing that the immense number of 40,000
letters are put into each receptacle in a year, taking one
with another. As there are 5,300,000 inhabited houses
in the United Kingdom, this gives about 120 letters on an
average to each house. Considering bow few letters the
humbler classes receive, the average indicates how large
must be the receipt of letters by the commercial houses.
Striking an average in the same way, every ono of us—
men, women, boys, and girla—receives twenty-two letterp
in a year.—Once a Ifrea,

NORTH STAFFORDSHIRE.

A special meeting of this company was held on
Tuesday at the London Tavern, to consider .a bill
now before Parliament ; Col. Pearson in the chair.

The CHAIR3IAN adverted in feeling terms to the
loss they had sustained since the last meeting by the
death of Mr. Brodrick, their late excellent chair-
man, who had for many years devoted his best
exertions to the interest of the company. The bill
he had to submit was for authorising the company to
construct certain railways, forming a loop line of
railway in the Staffordshire potteries, and to repeal
certain of the provisions of the company's acts, with
respect to minerals and to enact others in lieu
thereof.

Mr. Burchell, the solicitor, read the heads of the
bill for the construction of a loop line six miles in
length from the Hanley branch to the towns of Burs-
lem, Tunstall, Newchapel, and Harecastle on a high
level, the cost would be £150,000.
The CHAIRMAN stated that the bill authorized the
raising of £300,000 on shares for the purpose of
constructing the line mentioned, providing addi-
tional rolling stock, and other provisions for the
general purposes of the company.
Mr. RENNICK moved, as an amendment, that the
bill be not further proceeded with, but on a show of
hands the amendment was rejected, and the bill was
approved,
Mr. G. SMITH moved a resolution, recording the
shareholders' high estimation of the merits of the
late 'chairman, Mr. T. Brodrick, and expressing re-
gret at the loss sustained and their sincere condo-
lence with Mrs. Brodrick and other members of the
family.
Mr. HERAPATH seconded the motion, which was
unanimously adopted, and the proceedings ter-
minated.

This Institution is designed to supply a great national
want, viz., an asylum fur the orphan daughters of sailors iu
the Royal Navy and Merchants Service and of Marines.
It clothes, maintains, and educates them for domestic
service, and provides a home free of expense for former
inmates while out of situations, thus shielding them from the
temptations they might otherwise be exposed to.
The Committee earnestly APPEAL for CONTRIBU-
TIONS to meet the increasing applications through the
recent storms and loss et life at sea, and: o enable them
eventually to obtain premises more commensurate with the
necessities of this great maritime country, which loses 2,000
sailors annually by casualties alone, without including those
who may perish by war.

Almanacks for 1866.

Dietrichsen and Hannay's Royal Almanack for the
ensuing year has made its appearance. It is one
of the most comprehensive and cheap calendars yet
published, containing, as it does, information upon
nearly every subject, including the peerage, the
army and navy, the Parliament, banking, and the
Post-office.

The Licensed Victuallers' Almanac/: will be found
exceedingly useful to the members of the extensive
trade for whose use it is principally published. It
has a diary attached to each month, which will be
found very convenient for recording events and
other matters of importance.

Whistlecroft's Weather .Almanack.—The informa-
tion contained within this little annual renders it a
meteorological, agricultural, and general handbook.

The planters of Cuba have addressed a memorial
to the home Government at Madrid, asking for the aboli-
tion of slavery in Cuba.
Experiments made in the cultivation of the sugar
cane in Canada are said to indicate that it can be grown
