TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—The Committee of Messrs. Briscoe and Beauclerk
having observed with the utmost satisfaction the extraordinary
despatch, and very accurate manner, with which the report
of the particulars connected with the nomination of the Can-
didates for this Division was given in your Journal (appearing
as it did in the evening of the same day), feel it a duty in-
cumbent upon them to offer you their sincere and unqualified
thanks.

In paying this tribute, so due to the excellent manner in
which your Paper is conducted, proved, as it is, by the extra-
ordinary precision with which the several speeches made on
this occasion were reported (the paper having been received in
this room only three hours after the Meeting terminated), the
Committee feel they would be wanting in liberality, if they did
not offer this testimony of their approbation.
Reiterating these sentiments, they have the honour to re-
lit/gin, Sir, yours most respectfully,_._

H. RICHARDS, Secretary.

Lord Plunkett, the Ex-Chancellor, and his son,
polled in favour of O'Connell and Ruthven.--Dublin Paper.

ELECTION AwEcppTE.—The conduct of the Lord
Mayor of Dublin in challenging Mr. Rgthven, one of the can-
dictlf,t4s; calls to our mind a circumstance which occurred about
thirty years ago at a Norwich election. The late Mr. Wind-
ham, who was Re of the candidates, was much annoyed by
the mob, the leader of which addressed him in very insulting
language, and having had a ring formed, after various antics,
put himself in a boxing attitude, and challenged Mr. Windham
to fight. Mr, W. was very fond of athletic sports, in which he
excelled, and being highly provoked, he sprung from the hus-
tings, rushed into the ring, set-to with the mob champion, and
soon laid him at his feet, and after punishing him severely, re-
tprged to his friends.
