goon and Lecturer on Anatomy, to recover of the. defendant, who is a
gentleman of property, residing at Knightsbridge, the sum of 31. 35., for
professional services and medicines supplied.
The defendant pleaded that the plaintiff was not an apothecary, and
could not therefore recover for medicines.

On the part of the plaintiff; it was contended that he was a Licentiate
of the Apothecaries' Company, and the Clerk of the Company, who
had been subpanaed to prove this fact, was called on. The subpoena
not being in attendance, the plaintiff being thus unable to make out his
case, was nonsuited.

GALWAY ELECTION.—(From our Dublin Cor-
respondent.)—This election will commence to-morrow. Mr.
Lynch is upon the ground,' and will in all probability be
re-elected, though, as I informed you in my last, Sir Valentine
Blake will stand upon the out-and-out Radical interest. A.
meeting of the trades of Galway was held last week to con-
sider who they should support ; and it was resolved that Mr.
Lynch, as receiving a large sum from Government, would not
be in a position to represent their feelings. Mr. Lynch's
friends are, however, sanguine of his success. Sir Valentine
Blake is in France, but his son will represent his interest till
his return, which will take place, it is thought, before the con-
test terminates.
