STAMFORD.

A meeting of a number of electors was held at the
George and Angel Inn on Wednesday, at which it woo,
resolved to send a requisition to Mr. J. Rolt, Q.C., of
the Chancery bar, soliciting him to become a candidate
in the independent interest. From a statement made at
the meeting, it is fully expected that the requisition
will be accepted. It has been stated, from good autho-
rity, that the Marquis of Granby will again be a candi-
date ; the other nominee in the Burghley interest has
not been mentioned.—Morning paper.

NORTHAMPTONSHIRE.
(From the Cambridge Advertiser.)
We hear that Mr. Maun,ell will not again come for.
ward as a candidate for North Northamptonshire, and iL
is definitely arras ged for Mr. Vernon Smith to solicit
the suffrages on Liberal principles. It is said that the
Conservatives have no objection to this arrangi.ment,
provided Mr. A. S. O'Brien is unopposed; but many of
the Whigs are confident that two Liberals may be re-
' turned, viz., Mr. V. Smith and Mr. Jones Loyil, the
eminent banker, who owns considerable property in this
division of the county. Should both declare themselves
candidates it is thought that Mr. O'Brien will retire
rather than enter upon an expensive contest.
PETERBOROUGH.
(From the Cambridge Advertiser.)
All is quiet respecting Peterborough. Sir R. Heron
will retire, after twenty-five years' faithful service; and
it is determined that Mr. Fitzwilliam and Mr. Cavendish
will be the future representatives.
DOVES ELECTION.—The candidates for the repre-

WiLt oency (though be has d. dared his readiness to sit if
-elected); but, from the strong feeling manifested in his
favour, his non-appearance in the canvassing arena will
be amply made up by the t zertions of his friends, whose
canvass in his behalf far exceeds their most sanguine
expectations. The Prinsep faction are finding their
canvass tremendous up hill work; but we undrstand
that, by the aid of certain appliances, they expect yet to
make head-way. They will, however, we guess, have
their work to do; for, as we said last week, Sir John's
free trade policy has obtained for him the support of a
large number of these who were formerly his opponents,
and from this circumstance, as well as the exertions of
his Conservative friends, to all present appearances it
seems that there will be no change in the representation
of Dover at the approaching election.—Dover Chronicle.
DEAL ELECTION.—As we stated last week, Lord
Clinton, son of the do-what-tie-likes-% ith-his•own.
Duke, has appeared as a "No Popery " candidate
against the two Liberals, Lord Paget and Mr. Grenfell,
but it is not fur a moment supposed that he has the
slightest chance of success. Lord Clinton has trimmed
his sails according to the wind; but although a few mis=
guided persons may be caught by the hypocritical
manoeuvre, no true Protestant Dissenters can possibly
so far forget themselves as to follow in his wake, which
would most inevitably lead them back to the shoals and
quicksands of High Church oppression and ascendancy.
Both Liberals ha,‘ e expressed their satisfaction at the
result of their canvass, which we have reason to believe
has been extremely favourable.--.Thid.
