THE A REPRESENTATION OF FIN SBURY.—Yester-
day some of the leading electors of Finsbury waited upon
the Lord Mayor, at the Mansion-house, for the purpose of
inviting him to stand as a candidate for the vacant seat in
the representation caused by the death of Mr. Duncombe.
The invitation took him by surprise, but he did not hesitate
to give a decisive answer. From their knowledge of the con-
stituency, and having regard to the public esteem in which
he is generally held, they were led, they said, to believe
that his return would be extremely probable, and they
urged him to afford the electoral body an opportunity of ex-
pressing their sentiments. The Lord Mayor said, flattered
though be was by the application, implying as it did a
fresh proof of good-will towards him, he regretted to have
to decline entertaining it. He added that he should not
have thought of retiring from the representation of Ando-
ver, which he had shared for 14 years, to seek the suffrages
of any other constituency, but for the pressing requisition
of so large a proportion of the electors of the city of London
to allow himself to be put in nomination for the seat vacated
by Lord J. Russell. He expressed himself to that effect at
I the time in an address to the electors of Andover, in which
he took leave of them, and to that resolution he should
always adhere. The deputation are understood to have
asked the Lord Mayor to give the matter some further con-
sideration, at least, before deciding, remarking that the case
of a man asking to be returned to Parliament was different
irom that of his being solicited to stand. Mr. Cubitt said
they must excuse him ; he felt himself bound, not only by
the terms, but by the spirit of the communication he ad-
dressed to his former constituents. The deputation then
left.
REPRESENTATION OF EAST WORCESTERSHIRE:,

Foley in the representation of East Worcestershire. The
