REPRESENTATION OF THE CARDIGANSHIRE BO-
ROUGHS. —No other candidate to oppose Mr. J. S. Har-
ford for the representation of these boroughs has yet
come forward. Mr. Harford contested the representa-
tion with Mr. Pryse at the general election of 1841, when
he was defeated by a small majority only. It is, how-
ever, asserted that the Hon. George Laurence Vaughan,
brother of the Earl of Lisburne, intends to declare him-
self a candidate on the Liberal interest. The Dissenters
are desirous that Mr. Edward Miall should come for.
ward as their candidate, and it is said by the organ of
that party that Mr. Miall is ready to be announced
whenever a respectable requisition may be forwarded.
However this may be, it is certain that a large body of
the Liberal electors :are anxious to secure the services of
Mr. W. Williams, late M.P. for Coventry. This gentle-
man lately addressed a long letter to his countrymen,
urging upon them the necessity of erecting colleges for
the education of schoolmasters in Wales, and offering the
munificent sum of 5001. in aid of the object. It is not
now at all probable that the Conservative interest will
be divided.

SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE ELECTION. WOLVLZ.
HAMPTON, THURSDAY EVENING. Up to yesterday
the only candidates named as likely to be brought
forward, were Mr. Forster and Lord Lewisham,
son of the Earl of Dartmouth. This morning, how-
ever, it became generally rumoured amongst those ac-
quainted with electioneering movements that the Hon. J.
Talbot. Q.C., brother of the present Earl, and the emi-
nent Parliamentary barrister, was likely to como for-
ward. Saturday will, in all probability, see the candi-
dates in the field
HOUSELESS POOR ASSOCIATION.—In the early part
of this month the severity of the weather and the num-
bers of miserable starvelings in the streets induced the
committee of the Houseless Poor Association to open
two of their asylums—their funds being too reduced to
open their third asylum without further assistance from
the public. At the two asylums, which were opened on
the 4th inst., 2,934 persons have received 9,451 lodgings,
and 20,954 rations; of this great number much above
one-half are Irish. The third asylum, in Ogle-street,
which had been prepared for the reception of inmates,
has been temporarily granted to the guardians of the
Strand Union, to remove their healthy children into
from Drouet's establishment at Tooting; and so well
aired, warmed, and ventilated have the premises been
found that only one casualty has occurred.
