MILITIA.

The Royal Glamorgan Light Infantry Regiment
of Militia, under the command of Colonel C. I.
Kemeys Tynte, M.P., was inspected at Cardiff, on
the 14th inst., by Colonel Patton, inspecting field
officer of the Bristol district, who expressed himsel
much pleased with the steadiness of the men under
arms and the progress they had made in their drill.
The regiment was dismissed, after 21 days' tre!in_
ing, on the 18th inst., and since then a consiAerable
number of the men have volunteered to the regular
forces.

The West Suffolk Militia, upwards of 500
strong, having undergone their 21 days' training
at Bury St. Edmund's, were reviewed on Monday
in the Cricket-field by General Slade, from
Colchester Camp. The men were put through a
variety of evolutions, at the conclusion of which
the General expressed his satisfaction at their
martial appearance. Colonel Deere then addressed
them, and advised them to enter the regular
service. The men were disbanded on Tuesday,
and since then recruiting has been going on pretty
freely.

MR. T. BAZLEY AND THE _REP.RESEN:

TATION OF MANCHESTER.

Mr. Thomas Bazley issued the following address
to the electors of Manchester yesterday :
" Gentlemen,—A vacancy in the representation
of this borough having occured by the lamented
death of the late Sir John Potter, M.P., many of
you have done me the honour of requesting me to
offer myself as a candidate to represent you and
the important interests of this mercantile and
manufacturing city in the Commons' House of Par-
liament. Permit me, therefore, to place my faith-
ful services at your disposal, and to assure you
that my duty, as your representative, would impel
me to promote the nation's onward course of peace-
ful industry and prosperity, in the initiation of
which I hope that I have been, not unworthily,
engaged as one of its true and early Rim:leers ; and
that I should energetically assist in rendering
all the political institutions of this great country
adapted to the demands for improvement and to the
intelligence of the age.
"My opinions are well known to you, and I
come before you as a warm, consistent, sincereandiiberty.

system of the country is indispensable to the re-

costly Government.
