DURHAM.-THE JUDGE-ADVOCATE,

DURHAM, MARCH 8.
Mr. J. R. Mowbray, M.P. for this city, having
accepted the office of Judge Advocate under Lord
Derby's Government, has this morning issued his
address to the electors. He says :
" I have received most unexpectedly from the Earl of
Derby the offer of a high and responsible office under the
Crown, and I have accepted that offer. . . . Although
not instrumental in the overthrow of the Government of
Lord Palmerston, I have not hesitated to respond to the
appeal of Lord Derby, because I think he is fairly entitled
to call upon Conservatives of every shade to rally round
him at the present crisis, and because I believe he is pre-
pared to uphold the honour of the country by a firm yet
conciliatory foreign policy, and is sincerely anxious to pro-
mote all those measures of legal reform and of social and
political progress which are called for by the increasing in-
telligence of the age."
There can be little doubt the honourable gentleman
will be re-elected without opposition, as during the five
years he has represented the city ho has won the good
opinion of men of all parties by his assiduity and inde-
pendent conduct.

GREAT EXHIBITION IN 1861.—1 t is stated that the
