There was no Court of Aldermen held to-day ;
but the Loan MAYOR, after inspecting the raurns
of the Meal-weighers; ordered the pi ice of Bread
to be continued as last week. .
We Understand that Sir Vic'Arty Gtuns, his Ma-
iesty's Attorney-General, sat otf this morning for
CattilHdae, as a Candidate for the University. A
very atiive canvass has been begun in his favotir,
Which promises every prospect of success.
THE ARTS.4.-The beautiful picture of A Road
Side, by OWRN ; that of A Girl going to Market,
adiuirably. painted by NORTHCOTE; The Tillining
&hod Boy, by THOMSON; are all the property of
I.lr. LEICSSTER PARKER, a well-known amateur,
'who suggested the subjects to the respeetiVe artists.
.This Gentleman is also the purchaser of a picture
representing an old Castle in Wales, by HAvtr-L,
Whose excellence in water-colours is universally ac-
knowledged, and who on this occasion has shewn
that he is not less skilled in the higher province of
oil-painting. Mr. PARKER has also purchased a fine
lanr!sape by CALCOTT, which will probably be a
conspicuous objea in the next annual display of Bri-
lish talents.
The Pictures of the late Mr. ROMNEY, consisting
egtedy of sketches and unfinished portraits, were
Yesterday sold by Mr. CHRISTIE to great advantage,
ecnsidering the little progress the Artist bad made in
I°,ost of them. They, however, bore strong marks
°I taste and genius. Ajuvenle portrait of gis. Sin-
"b°Ns, with a comic arrangement of the features,
tas bought by Tap.strAm, who also bought many
54elehes of Lady HAMILTON. He was offered eighty
rineas advance upon all these sketches, but he gal-
-Itly declared that he would never suffer the sem-
blancest of that Lady to be undervalued, or consent

NE:7 ELEC rzo

, The several Candidates for Senatorial Honoors
are all aelivity and bustle in consequence of the in-
tended Dissolution. Earl PERCY, a young Noble-
man whose knowledge and talents are suitable ro.
his high birth. and expeetations, is not expected to
stand for Westminster, as reported. It is doubtful
whether Mr. SHERIDAN will again stand for the
same place, and he is expeeled to be returned for
Oak hampton. Sir THOINIAS TURTON certainly re-
news his application to the Borough of :South-
wark, and is expected to join his interest with that,
of Mr. WILLIAM SMITH. Mr. THORNTON, there-
fore, with all his respeetability and long services,
will be driven bard in the contest. _Mr. LASCELLES,
who 'so meritoriously distinguished himself by his
attachment to Mr. PITT,-. and his reverence for
the memory of that great and good man, is like-
ly to be returned for Yorkshire, and the Conn;
ty will do itself honour by such a choice.--:-
General TARLBTON, again lays siege to Liver-
pool, and is expected -to carry the town.—Mr.
LAyLAND, a Banker of that place, co-operates
with the General on this occasion, and 'Mr. Roscoz
must summon all his historical and poetical powers
to withstand so formidable an attack. The County
of Hants will most probably clause Sir H. MILDMAY
and Mr. CHUTE.—Capt. STOI'VORD is to be oppos-
ed at Ipswich by Capt. BENNETT, a nephew of the
Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND. Mr. WILSON is
secure of-his return for that place.—Mr. Dicxxxsom
and Mr. LETHBRIDGE are to be opposed by Mr.
LANGTON, for the County of Somerset.—Sir FRANCIS
BURDETT, who, with all he has squandered, seeatis to
have more money than he knows what to do with,
ventures again for Middlesex. Of Mr. 111EcLisn's
return for that County there is little doubt. The
same motives which induced Mr. PAULL to decline
a/scrutiny for Westminster, 'will probably prevent
him frO.n venturing on a canvass.—Colonel ELLIOT
also starts for Westminster.—LordVALENTlA has
already offered himself for the County of Wex-
ford.;—Sir ROBERT WIGRAM retires from the Bo-
rough. of .Wexford, and is to be succeeded by Mr.
NEviLLE.—Mr. FAWKES abandons his pretensions
to the County of York.—Mr. JEKYL means to de-
vote himself to professional pursuits, and not to
plunge again into the vortex of parliamentary con-
tent ions.—Mr. HANKEY starts for the City of Lon-
don, and is expeeted: to run hard against his brother
Alderman, Mr.. Comas.—Sir S. HOOD, of course,
stands'again. for ,Westminster, and while he is gal-
lantly employed abroad. his Cootarymen, no doubt,
will not forget him at home.—Lord COCHRANE
has given a signal that he means.to attack the same
place.—Messrs. PRICE, CURTIS, SHAw,.and Coms
are aelively canvassing for the City of London.—Mr.
S. THORNTON renews his pretensions to the county
of Surrey.—Mr. LONGMAN has' made such a favour-
able impression upon the Eleelors of Maidstone,
that they are likely to give a new edition of their
former choice.

We shall report progress as to future Electioneer-
ing proceedings, and we are happy to, learn that, as
far as an opinion can be formed at present, the gene-
ral returns will mot probably be charaderized by a
,
Protestant ascenotancy.
