ELECTION NE WS.
FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
NORTH NOTTINGHAMSHIRE.—Mr. Bailey, the Conservittiva
proposer of the Earl of Lincoln, has issued the following ad •
dress :

TO THE FREEHOLDERS OF THE NORTHERN
DIVISION OF NOTTINGHAMSHIRE.
Gentlemen,—Though still retaining the opinion express ed
by me at the day of nomination, that the election of Lord
Lincoln as the representative of this division, might with
comparative ease, and at small expense, have been secured,
had prompt and efficient means been adopted for accompish-
ing so desirable an object ; yet now finding that his Lord-
ship's disinclination to be brought forward has created a
considerable objection among the influential friends of free
trade in this district to enter upon a contest, and being un-
willing to occasion to Lord H. Bentinck any unnecessary
trouble or expense, such as would be unavoidble upon the
carrying on an election, I have to request,' as a particular
favour that the friends of Lord Lincoln.will altogether abstain
from tendering votes for him at any of the polling-places of
the division, in order that as little excitement and trouble
may be occasioned to any one as is possible under existiog
circumstances.

" I am, Gentlemen, yours most obediently,
" Basford, March 2, 1846." "THOMAS BAILEY.
Lord Henry Bentinck's friends believe, that had the Earl
been bond fide in the field a week before the election, he
would have stood a fair chance of being returned ; the weight
of votes in the southern part of the division would have over-
balanced those of the "Dukeries" in the northern part of the
division. Notwithstanding this address of Mr. Bailey, elec-
tors in the southern part, who are unshackled, determined
to record their honest conviction and unsullied votes, and
polled. In the northern part ne
_polling for the Earl took
place. The poll will close this (Wednesday) afternoon. It
is much to be feared that Mr. Bailey's indiscreet act has done
injury to the Liberal cause; though no one doubts his sin-
cerity and anxious desire to have served a good cause, that
of assisting to extinguish the corn-laws, and also to have
somewhat healed the wounds of a persecuted nobleman,
who is a bright ornament to his country. By arrangement
between Mr. Bailey and the agents of Lord H. Bentinck, on
Monday, Mr. B. issued the foregoing address, with the un-
derstanding that his Lordship should pay the whole ex-
pense of the poll heaths. ThrthiS' arrangement, of *course,
Lord henry saved much in bringing up the whole of his
voters. Upon the whole it has been a curious jingle. But
come a fair coitest when it may, the house of Welbeck will
find that the attempt to upheld monopoly and the exaction
of considerably increased tithes will tell. When the deputa-
tion waited upon Lord Lincoln last Saturday night (of which
the public are already aware), they were modest enough to
put into writing kis entire disavowal of having been at all
cognizant of his nomination.

THE DUKE OF NEWCASTLE

AND THE EARL OF LINCOLN.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Stn,—l should be sorry to enter into the private misunder-
standings of a family in the columns of a newspaper, but
when they are of a public nature and materially concern the
public, then it is another matter. Thus so far I have ex-
plained myself.
Now, Sir, I cannot agree with those who are disposed and
think it right to throw upon Lord Lincoln the entire fault of
the issue bet een his father and himself The Earl is not a
minor beneath the roof of his father; why, then, let me
ask, is he, in his political opinion (and as a Minister of the
Crown, too,) to be subjected to the dictation—much more the
control—of the Duke? Where is the person who will be
bold enough to assert that the father did not first throw
down the gauntlet? And did not the Duke follow up his
strong feeling by the publication of his letter" To the Inha-
bitants of South 'Nottinghamshire," on the 17th ult. ? Let
us have the matter in a correct light, and not endeavour to
prejudice the son for the purpose of " protection " to the
father.—Yours, obediently, TRUTH.
Nottinghamshire, March 3, 1846.
