CITY OF CORK.

We mentioned yesterday the retirement of Mr. Fagan,
and the consequent return of the two other Repeal can-
didates. The Cork Constitution gives the following ac-
count of the close:—" At four o'clock Mr. Fagan re-
signed, according to compact with Mr. M'Carthy, but in
opposition to his backers, the Young Inlanders. In the
course of the day there were occasional skirmishes
between the Old and Young, and even on one occasion
Dr. Lyons was most grossly assaulted by a mob, and
would have been seriously injured but for the timely
arrival of a number of Conservatives and police, who
battled for his rescue. The poll closed by law at five
o'clock, when it was understood that about 1,600 had
voted. At half past six o'clock the poll-books were
handed into the Sheriff, but were not dotted up, neither
were the objections decided by the assessor (Mr. Justin
M'Carthy), and the Sheriff said he would not do more
that evening than declare the parties elected, which he
did in these words:—' Mr. Fagan having formally ten-
dered his resignation before the close of the poll, I
declare Daniel Callaghan, Esq., and Alexander M'Car-
thy, Esq., to be representatives duly elected to serve in
the ensuing Parliament for the county of the city of
Cork. God save the Queen.' Mr. Fagan then addressed
the assembly, hoping his friends would forgive him for
the course he had pursued, and assuring them that he
did not come forward to oppose Mr. Callaghan, having
expected to have been returned unopposed. He thanked
the Tenant League and those who had supported him,
though their votes were unavailing, having been out-
voted Icy the Conservatives. The numbers were at the
close—

The election for the county of Dublin, which is fixed
to take place this day (Monday), will not, as was ex-
pected, be a walk over tor the late Members, Messrs.
Taylor and Hamilton. Mr. James Nugent, a grocer and
publican, residing in Kingstown, acting upon the
policy of Mr. John Reynolds, who so nearly topped the
poll in the city, has come forward as a Repealer upon
" moral force" principles. Alderman Butler, a druggist
