ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON.

There is reason to believe that on Wednesday
next Lord I. Russell will apply for the stewardship
of the Chiltern Hundreds, to enable him to vacate
his seat for the City of London, and on that day or
the following one a motion will be made in the
House of Commons for the issue of a writ authoris-
ing afresh election.
Mr. Wood has deemed it desirable to afford some
explanation of his views with respect to the ques-
tion of church rates, in answer to individual Dis-
senters among the constituency who are understood
to have urged upon him the necessity for a total
and unqualified abolition. His reply is, that every
consciAtious objector to church rates should be en-
tirely relieved from their imposition, and he would
not have any Dissenter from the Church, be he of
what denomination he may, taxed for its support.
The requisition to the Lord Mayor continues to re:
ceive fresh names in considerable numbers. Up to
Saturday evening, the elose of the fourth day, it was
signed by about 5000 of the electors of different
shades of political opinion. Besides a central com-
mittee. which sits daily at the London Tavern, local
committees for securing his return have been embo-
died in the 18 or 20 different polling districts within
the city. From and after to-day the Liberal party will
have their headquarters at Guildhall Coffeehouse, in
Gresham-street, as on former occasions. They, too,
have established local committees in all the diffe-
rent wards and Parliamentary districts for carry-
ing on the war.
A general meeting of the Liberal party is an-
nounced to take place on Wednesday next, at two
o'clock, at the London Tavern.

ANDOVER.
The enclosed addresses were printed and circu-
lated on Saturday evening. Mr. Coles is a gentle-
man residing at Middleton-house, Longparish,
within four miles of the town, of considerable
wealth, and a staunch Conservative. He was re-
turned member for Andover, in conjunction with
Mr. Cubitt, in 1847, in opposition to the Hon.
Newton Fellowes, now Earl of Portsmouth, and
Mr. Chaloner Smith. He sat for the borough till
1857, and was then defeated by the Hon. Dudley
F. Fortescue. There is no opposition announced
at present :
" TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF
ANDOVER.
" Gentlemen,—At the request of numerous elec-
tors of Andover, conveyed to me in very flattering
terms, I have consented to become a candidate for
the honour of again representing you in Parlia-
ment ; and should you do me the honour to re-
turn me, I am prepared to devote myself conscien-
tiously to the duties and responsibilities of that
important office.
" My political principles and opinions you are
acquainted with. lam disposed to concur in such
changes as altered times and circumstances may
appear to have rendered necessary, and the interests
of Andover will always be anxiously considered by
me.
" I propose to myself the pleasure of paying my
respects shortly to the electors, and have the honour
to be, gentlemen, faithfully and respectfully yours,
" H. BEAUMONT COLES."
" Middleton-house, July 20."
" TO THE ELECTORS OF ANDOVER.

"My dear Friends,—ln asking you to resume
the important trust which, 14 years ago, you gener-
ously confided to me—then a comparative stranger
—I beg in the first place to offer you the most
earnest expression of my heartfelt gratitude, not
only for having taken me on that occasion on my
own showing, and on the strength of my general
character, but also for the uniform confidence in me
which you have demonstrated at each succeeding
election, by increasing majorities recorded in my
favour.
" I beg to assure you that I have never sought any
opportunity for representing any other constitu-
ency ; on the contrary, I have constantly discou-
raged all overtures which from time to time have
been made to me ; nor should I now have yielded,
but for the extraordinary manifestation of a general
desire on the part of this, the most important city
of our great empire, that I should allow myself to
be put in nomination to be one of its representatives.
"To you, my Andover friends, I owe the oppor-
tunity which has led to this high compliment being
paid to me ; by your placing me in Parliament, and
keeping me there, the city of London has had the
means of judging of my fitness to represent its great
and important constituency, and if the result of
the election now about to take place be in my
favour, I shall the more rejoice, because it will be a

SOUTH LANCASHIRE•
On Saturday a meeting was held in the cham-
bers of the Reform Association at Liverpool to take
into consideration the steps necessary to be adopted
in reference to the election of an additional mem-
ber to be conferred on the Southern division of
Lancashire by the Appropriation of Seats Bill. It
was stated that on the previous day a deputation
from South Lancashire waited by appointment
upon the Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer at his private residence in Carlton-gardens,
and presented the following requisition :
" TO THE RIGHT HON. WM. EWART GLADSTONE, M.P.,

CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER, &C.
" Sir,—We the undersigned electors of the
Southern Division of the County of Lancaster re-
spectfully request that you will allow yourself to
be nominated as a candidate for the seat proposed
to be allotted to South Lancashire in the bill dis-
posing of the disfranchised seats of Sudbury and St.
Albans.
" The position which you occupy as one of the
first statesmen and orators in Europe, the extensive
knowledge you possess of the commercial wants of
the country, the important part you have taken in
its fiscal legislation, and the popular opinions you
have expressed on its foreign policy sufficiently re-
commend you as a fit and proper representative of
our views and interests in the House of Commons;
but we claim your services as our representative in
Parliament on local and personal grounds—as a
Lancashire man, the son of a Liverpool merchant—
we invite you to represent in Parliament the con-
stituency with which by birth, parentage, and in-
terest you are most nearly allied.
" We believe that while we could select no can-
didate who would so efficiently satisfy the varied
and important requireinents of South Lancashire,
there are few constituencies that would make less

" Gentlemen,—l have had the honour to receive
from you a requisition, signed by no less than 7,788
electors of South Lancashire, and among them by
many names of great weight, which requests my
consent to be nominated as a candidate for the third
seat likely to be allotted by Act of Parliament to
that powerful and populous division. I take a requi-
sition thus signed to be rare in the history of elec-
tions, and to afford a certain expectation of success.
