REPRESENTATION OF SHEFFIELD.- to
very numeron.ly signed requisition has been presen ited
Mr. BUCKINGIIA3I, calling on Lim to stand as acanddsts
for that town under the Reform Bill. To this requisite
he has acceded. In cons-quence of some injurious reel

papers, he visited Sheffield on Monday, and in the pre9enn4
of a pubic meeting, convened for the purpose, ably
fully refuted the accusations against him. Resolution'
declaratory were also adopted.

appears, had partaken very largely of the juice of the arse!
and insisted, in all the eloquence of wine, on addressinb
