THE ELECTIONS.

BEVERLEY.—Henry Burton, Esq., the present M. P. for
Beverley, has again addressed his constituents, declaring his
intention of offering himself to their notice at the ensuing
election.

Bnawicx.—There is a good deal of excitement in the town
arising from the prospect of an immediate dissolution of par-
liament. Sir Francis Blake will arrive with the mail to-
morrow, and it is enough for us to say that a more faithful
representative than Sir Francis never sat in the House of
Commons. He has maintained his political principles incor-
ruptible whoever might be minister, and under whatever cir-
cumstances he might be placed. The friends of Sir Rufane
Donkin are also on the alert. Sir Rufane has been a most
faithful and useful representative, and was an independent
supporter of the late Ministry. We were not aware until the
other day that some of his friends entertained the belief that
he did not vote for the third reading of the bill for admitting
dissenters to the Universities. We think it our duty therefore
to state that Sir Rufane supported and voted for the bill
through all its stages, and took a lively interest in its progress
through the Commons. Colonel Beresford we hear declines
coming forward on the Tory interest, and we hear others
spoken of as being anxious to come forward, both Tories and
Liberals.

EDINBURGIL-Our two able and faithful representatives are
again to stand, and on this occasion Edinburgh will have the
honour, for the first time, of returning two Opposition mem-
bers, and by the undivided suffrages of the Reformers of all
classes.—Scotsman.

HASTINGS.—Mr. Elphinstone again comes forward on the
Reform interest. Mr. Planta and Mr. Briscoe (two Tories)
have also declared themselves. The present members, Warre
and North, intend to renew their claims.
HANTS ( NORTHERN DIVISION).—We have just heard,
through a channel that is entitled to reliance, that the Marquis
of Douro and Mr. Walter Long, will again contest this divi-
sion against Mr. Lefeuvre and Mr. Scott. We trust this in-
formation is correct, as we think it is not probable there will
this time be any mistake in the numbers.—Hants Advertiser.
HuLL.—Mr. Hutt and Mr. M. D. Hill, the present patri-
otic members for this borough, have addressed their consti-
tuents, declaring their intention of again seeking the honour
of their suffrages. Mr. Hill, in his address, declares himself
an advocate for a thorough Church reform, for the abolition of
church-rates, complete relief to the Dissenters, triennial par-
liaments, and vote by ballot and household suffrage, and for a
complete corporation reform. A Tory candidate is spoken of,
but his chance of success is desperate.
LEWES.—Sir C. Blunt, and Mr. T. R. Kemp, have issued
addresses to the electors,. expressing . their determination to
come forward.

LANCASHIRE.—Lord Molineux has declared his positive in-
tention to retire, unless some extensive exertions are made by'
the Liberals. Mr. Heywood, the banker, who formerly repre-
sented the county, has been strongly urged to allow himself to
be put in nomination, but has declined the proffered honour.
It is now proposed to forward a requisition to Mr. Spring
Rice, and the proposition has been most cordially received.
Mr. Spring Rice has also been mentioned for Liverpool, and
it is possible that a requisition may be sent to him from that
town. We understand that the requisition to Sir Francis
Egerton, requesting his Lordship to allow himself to be put in
nomination for South Lancashire, will be presented to his
Lordship to-day.—Wheeler's Manchester Chronicle.
LEEDS.—The electors of Leeds " favourable to reform and
economical government," assembled on Friday last, in the
large room of the Commercial Buildings, to meet the mem-
bers for the borough, and to " consider the steps necessary to
be taken to secure its proper representation in the anticipated
event of a dissolutionof Parliament." John Marshall, Esq.,
formerly the member for the county, filled the chair ; and the
two borough members, John Marshall, jun., Esq., and Edward
Baines, Esq., with great numbers of their friends, were pre-
sent. The meeting returned its thanks in an extremely cor-
dial manner to the members for their services, and expressed
towards them " unabated attachment and regard." The can-
vassers for Sir John Beckett, the Ministerial, Corporation,
and Lowther candidate, have been extremely active.—Leeds
Mercury.
LEITH.—The friends of Mr. Murray in Leith are deter-
mined to take the most efficient steps to secure the re-election,
if a dissolution of Parliament should take place, of their pre-
s'nt talented and excellent representative. It is whispered
that Aitcheson is to be laid on the shelf, and Mr. Baring
brought forward—mere idle talk, we believe I—Scotsman.
NORTHALLERTON.—On Thursday morning last, W. B.
Wrightson, Esq. arrived here, direct from Dublin, again to
offer himself a candidate for the representation of this borough,
in the event of a dissolution of Parliament. He commenced
to canvass the town of Northallerton the same day, and was
generally received by the electors with the most flattering as-
surances of support, so as to leave very little doubt of his being
returned should the borough be again contested ; but it has
just transpired that Captain Boss has declined becoming a can-
didate, so that the field is entirely left to Mr. Wrightson, and
the result will be his unanimous return, as no other opposition
is anticipated.
NOTTINGHAM.—An address is in the course of signature,
among the electors there, to Sir John Cam Hobhouse, Bart.,
expressing their approbation of his conduct in declining the
invitation of the electors of Westminster, which is already re-
presented by two Reformers, and inviting him to offer himself
again.
PONTEFRACT.—Mr. Gully, the present Member for this bo-
rough, has issued a spirited and able address to the electors,
in which he announces his intention to stand again, should a
dissolution take place.
PLYMOUTII.—A meeting of the friends of J. Collier, Esq.,
M.P., for Plymouth, took place in the Mechanics Institution
of that borough on Wednesday last, when it was resolved that
the electors should do all in their power to secure his re-
election in the event of a dissolution of Parliament. On the
following day, a similar meeting took place at the Freemason's
Hall, in favour of Thomas Bewis, Esq., the other representa-
tive of Plymouth. Both these gentlemen are Reformers.
RIPON.—It is said that it has been proposed to Mr. Wool-
verley Attwood, son of Mr. Matthias Attwood, M.P. for
Whitehaven, to stand for Ripon.
ROCHDALE.—Iobn Fenton, Esq., the present member, and
John Entwistle, Esq., a Tory, have both pledged themselves to
stand a poll, should there be a new election. The friends of
both parties have commenced a canvass.— Wheeler's Manches-
ter Chronicle.
Sussia—OVEsTEßN DIVISION.—There is not the most
remote chance of any change in the western division of this
county. It is as close as ever was the most rotten borough
under the old system of misrepresentation ; and it is corn-
pietely under the control of the aristocracy. In the eastern
division it is supposed that the present members will walk the
course. The late changes may, however, have revived the
spirits of the Tories, who, it is hinted, have been endeavouring
to induce Mr. Villiers Shelley to come forward.

SHEFFIELD.—The two sitting Members will, no doubt, offer
themselves again.
SOUTH DURHAM.—The Duke of Wellington is in very bad
odour in this part of the country. The liberal electors are
bestirring themselves, and we understand that steps are already
taken for calling into the field again, in the event of a dissolu-
tion, Joseph Pease, Esq., and John Bowes, Esq. Both of
these gentlemen are tried Reformers of a very liberal cast, and
are deservedly popular among their constituents. At a meet-
ing held at the Fleece Inn, Darlington, on Thursday last, it
was stated to be Mr. Pease's intention again to offer himself.
SOUTHAMPTON.—The Tories are very active here, and a
severe contest is expected. The Reformers are looking out
for a candidate to join the present Liberal member, Mr. Pen-
leaze, and are very confident of being able to return both. Mr.
Atherley retires.
WAKEFIELD..—D. Gaskell, Esq., the present reform mem-
ber for this borough, has stated his determination to offer him-
self at the next election.

WIGAN.-R. Thicknesse, Esq., M. P. for Wigan, has
circulated an address, stating that from age he is not able
longer to perform the duties of representing the borough.
WINDSOR.—There is a rumour of six candidates being pre-
pared to take the field—namely, John Ramsbottom, Esq.. Sir

DENHALL MARKETS.
