DUBLIN, MAY 14.—Testerday came on the
Election for' a Member, to represent the University
of Dublin in Parliament: Mr. J. L. FOSTER, nephew
to the Chancell4 of the Exchequer, and' Mr.
MACKLIN, a Gentleman of the Bar, were the Only
Candidates, Mr. DOHERTY having, for the present,
declined the contest ; a great number of speeches.
were made, principally by, the 'younger
,part of the
Electors, and at the close of the poll the numbers
appeared to be—For Mr. FOSTER, 46—Mr. MACK-
'I.IV, A.--Majority 42. Mr. FOSTER was declared cluly
ele&ed.

The contest for the Borough of St. Ives has been
one of the severest ever remembered in that place ;
the poll lasted two Clays, and ended in a vi&ory
gained on the. part of the Commonalty over the Cor-
poration.. At the close of the poll on Wednesday
the numbers were—for.
sir Walter Sterling - - - 147.
Samuel Stephens, Esq. 147
Charles Cockerel!, Esq. - - las
Capt. Wool more - • 123 •
The two former having'been-declared duly eluted,
were chaired through the town amidst the exultation
of their friends, as' was also gir C. HAwicis, on
whose interest Sir 'WALTER stood. The .winning
party then. dined together at the Star Inn, and spent
the evening in •the highest festivity.

Mr. Si/Eau:esti then came forward, and addressed
the populace. - He- '.%; a s not dissatisfied with the staie
of the, poll. Numbers of persons were - ready to.
come forward and vote for him, but they said they
thought it. of no use. Now it appeared that all who
made this promise, .‘if they voted, might have turned
the poll in his favour. He next alluded to the per-
sonal attack whin- had been ma-de the preceding
day against Isprd Cochrane, and on which that Noble
Lord felt as a man should feel, and as he himself
shotsld have •fele. ;'That Noble Lord • had been re=

he behaved on the occasion like a gallant mans He

favour of Lord Cochrane, he must condenin the oh-
iervations he had been frequently making relative to.
gross abuses in the Navy, and the improper-condua

taken up on:very light, grounds.(Here Mrs Sheri-
