IRELAND.

DUBLIN, JAN. 10.—The elections in a few Irish boroughs
and cities commenced yesterday and the preceding day. The
only one at which there has been a poll previous to this day, is
that of Athlone, where the candidates are J. J. Talbot, Esq.,
the former member, and Captain Mathew, a young aspirant for
legislatorial honours, who comes forward to oppose Mr. Talbot
on the Conservative interest. The election at Athlone com-
menced yesterday. Talbot has a majority of one. The con-
test is likely to be a very close one.
CITY OF KILKENNY.—NOMINATION.—The election for this
city commenced yesterday. The candidates were Messrs. Sul-
livan and Fletcher, both Reformers. Whatever be the result,
therefore, it must be prejudicial to the Tory Government.
ENNISKILLEN.—The election (?) for this Old Sarum of
Ireland took place on Thursday. Lord Enniskillen's nomi-
nee—the Hon. Mr. Cole—was " in due course" returned ; the
Hon. Gentleman professing ',himself, amidst the vociferations
of his vassals, the heart's blood of an Orangeman.
CITY OF LIMERICK.—RETURN OF Two RBFORNIBR9.—On
Thursday the Messrs. Roche were returned for this city, a
very slight show of opposition having been presented by Al-
derman Watson.

Vv
BOROUGH OF PORTARLINGTON.—CoIoneI Dawson Darner, a
Conservative, was returned without opposition for this borough
yesterday.
Du N GARVAN.— Mr. Sergeant O'Loughlin has been returned
without opposition for this borough.
DUBLIN CITY.—Mr. O'Connell, who was in Cork on
Thursday, has addressed the Dublin electors. They have
been also addressed by Mr. Ruthven. Active preparations for
hostilities are being made on both sides.
COUNTY LOUTH.-it is rumoured that Sir Patrick Bellew,
in complance with the wishes of a majority of the constituents,
returns to the contest for this county.
LONGFORD.—Meetings of the liberal freeholders have been
held in various parts of the county during the past week. The
return of one Anti-Tory at least (Mr. Luke White) is almost
quite certain.
WEXFORD COUNTY.—A meeting of the various Liberal clubs
existing throughout this county was to have been held this day
at Enniscorthy, at which it was the intention to put Sir Thomas
Esmonde in nomination for the county. The worthy Baronet
is a decided Anti-Tory ; and, should he consent to stand, has
every chance of being returned with Mr. Maher, another Re-
former.

DONEGAL COUNTY.—Reports are still in circulation, that
this county will be contested by Lord Chichester and Captain
Hart. The friends of the late Tory Members are very san-
guine in their expectation that there will be no contest.
CARLOW.—Colonel Bruen, in his address to the county
electors, and Mr. F. Bruen, to those of the borough, have put
forth statements the most jesuitical which had yet appeared,
not even excepting the " Tamworth Manifesto." They are
known, however, to be enrolled members of the Conservative
Society, and the former was one of those who figured on the
platform at the Orange meeting in Dublin, last August.
Mr. O'Connell slept in Fermoy last night, and will reach
Dublin this night.
CASHEL.—Mr. Leigh Perrin arrived in town this day, and
announces his return as certain. _ _

KILKENNY_ CITY (Five o'clock).—lntelligence has just
reached town that Mr. Fletcher has resigned, and that Mr.
O'Sullivan has been returned.
The news has also arrived that Mr. Martin has been re.
turned for Sligo, without opposition.
