READING, SATURDAY, MAy 2.l.—The carrent
report that Parliament. will certainly by dissolved during the
present year, has created a variety of speculations as to the
gentlemen who are likely to be returned for this borough at, the
consequent general election. Two candidates have already
commenced canvassing the town, but they have not yet made the
public acquainted with more than their general principles.—We
present our readers with a communication respecting them,
which we have received from a highly esteemed correspondent;
but we do not at all pledge ourselves to any opinions it may be
thought to advance, although it proceeds from the most respect-
able authority. One of these.gentlemen is Sir Frederick Hen-
niker, Bart., of Dunmow, in Essex. Sir F. received his edu-
cation at Eton and Cambridge, and on his quitting the Uni-
versity, made the continental tour, extending it to Greece,
Egypt, and Palestine. Sir F. is the eldest son of the late Ge-
neral air Brydges Trecothic Henniker, Bart., and first cousin
to the present Lord of that name. Besides this, he claims kin-
dred with a family of consideration in the county of Berks.—
Sir F. is reported to be in the enjoyment of an ample fortune,
the benefits of which, in the event of his election, will doubt-
less be felt in this town and neighbourhood. In point of politics,
he professes himself to be of loyal, but strictly independent,
principles—a staunch supporter of the Constitution of these
realms—and an admirer of the general conduct of the present
Administration.-:-The other gentleman who offers himself as
a candidate, is Edw*d Wakefield, Esq. He is the elder son
of the intelligent Priscilla -Wakefield, to whose excellent
writings the modern improvements in the education of youth
are chiefly to be ascribed. At the suggestion of this amiable
individual, Mr. W. was the person who first brought into
public notice that admirable Institution, the system of Savings
Banks, and at his sole instigation, the inquiry lately made into
the state of Lunatic Asylums (by which the cause of hu-
manity has profited so much) was set on foot, and by his un-
wearied exertions, at length brought to completion. Of this
gentleman's agricultural, commercial, and statistical know-
ledge the highest character is given. In regard to political
feelings; Mr. W. avows himself friendly to the existing insti-
tutions of the country, and an admirer of the great and leading
features in the conduct of the present Administration.—(Bel
shire Chronicle.)

A memorial to the LORD LIEUTENANT from
-the gentry and landed proprietors of Sligo, Leitrim, Ferma-
nagh, and Cavan, lies in Enniskillen for signatures. It prays
that a canal may be formed which will connect Lough Erne
with Lough Allen, and that • again with Lough Gill, which is
navigable to Sligo. Thus, with the canal akeady sanctioned
between Lough Erne and Neagh, will opet a communication
across the kingdom., from Sligo to the ports of Newry and Bel:.
fast. In a commercial point of view this undertaking is of the
greatest importance to Ireland.
