One of the most numerous and exciting meetings
that have been held in Bath for many years took place on Thursday evening at the Guildhall. It was
convened by the Liberal Association for the pur-
pose of nominating candidates for the representation
of the city. The present members, Sir Arthur
Elton, Bait., and Mr. Wm. Tite, were on the plat-
form. The former, in consequence of voting for the
Ministry on the Reform Bill, was received with
loud hisses and expressions of disapprobation ; but
the appearance of Mr. Tite was the signal for loud
and continued cheering.
Sir ARTHER ELTON endeavoured to address the
assembly, but the uproar was so great that at least
a quarter of an hour elapsed before he could obtain
a hearing:
Mr. Ting then. addressed the assembly and ob-
tained a most favourable reception. He described
the Government Reform Bill as a very liberal
measure for a Tory Government to bring forward,
but unfortunately it shut out the freemen of towns
from voting in counties, and it handed over those
counties which were usually free into the hands of
the landlords.
Mr. GEORGE NORMAN then moved that Mr. Tite
was a fit and proper person to represent the city of
Bath.

Mr. EDWARD. SAUNDERS seconded the motion,
which on being put to the meeting was carried
almost unanimously.
Mr. GEO. EDWARDS then proposed a resolution,
nominating Mr. Thomas Phinn, Q.C., which was
seconded by Sir Henry Bayly.
Major BAKER then proposed Mr. Arthur Edwia
Way, of Ashton Lodge.
- &list i-,.e22,611.-tr-t.ue in etmurF -Pay ‘,sr.
b
length, though at first he had great difficulty in
otaining a hearing.
The names of Mr. Phinn and Mr. Way were then
put to the meeting, when there was a very large
majority for Mr. Phinn.
The proceedings then closed.

BERWICK.
Two riWicr candidates have offered themselves as
representatives for this ancient border town. They
are both Conservatives—Capt. Gordon and Mr.
Ral:ph A. Erie (private secretary to Mr. Disraeli).
The two Liberal members, Mr. Marjoribanks and
Mr. Stapleton, offer themselves for re-election.

BEVERLEY.
The Hon. W. H. F. Denison (Liberal) retires
from this borough, and offers himself for Scar-
borough. Mr. H. Edwards (Conservative) offers
himself for re-election. A second Conservative
candidate has been found in the person of Mr. J.
R. Walker.

BEWDLEY AND STOURPORT.
Sir Thomas Winnington is canvassing these
boroughs.

BODMIN.
Mr. James Wyld has issued his address to the
electors.

DROITIVICH.
The following address has been issued by Sir
John Pakington :
" The present Parliament will shortly be dissolved, and
I hope that you will again do me the honour to elect me as
your representative. This is the eighth time that I have
sought the honour at your hands ; the last occasion was
little more than a year ago, when I accepted the arduous
office which I now hold. At that time the Earl of Derby,
in obedience to the commands of his Sovereign, had formed
an Administration with the full knowledge that he was in
a decided minority in the existing House of Commons. As
members of the Government we therefore felt from the
outset, that, whenever the discordant] sections opposed to
us thought fit to combine in a hostile vote, we should be
placed in a position which would make it our duty either to
resign our offices or to advise a dissolution of Parliament.
The adoption of one of these two courses has now been
forced upon us by a motion which has, in my opinion, done
little credit either to the statesmen who devised it, or to the
majority by whichit was supported. At a moment of great
public difficulty--at a time when a firm attitude on the part
of England is essential to the maintenance of peace in
Europe—at a time when the House of Commons was
pledged to give " calm and impartial consideration"
to the great subject of Parliamentary Reform, the
leaders of the Opposition have thought it consistent
with their duty even to refuse to consider a Reform Bill,
and have preferred to make that bill an excuse
for a factious motion and a party attack. We do
not complain that our Reform Bill was opposed; our
complaint is, that the men who professed to dislike the mea-
sure did not dare to meet it with open, straightforward op-
position. Their mancouvre, so far as the division was con-
cerned, has been successful, and her Majesty's Ministers
have felt it to be their duty to advise an appeal to the con-
stituencies. The issue to be decided is simple and intel-
ligible. On the one hand, moderate reform and progressive
improvement; on the other, an unsettled policy, too likely
to end in democratic innovation and revolutionary change.
I trust the decision will be such as to enable some party to
carry on the Government of the country. These annual
changes and incessant party struggles are injurious to our
national interests. They impede useful legislation at home,
they impair our power and influence abroad, and they tlrow
doubt and discredit on our institutions. For myself, I only
desire to be enabled, by your kind support, to continue the
same course of public conduct which I have so long main-
tained. I have never entertained extreme opinions. I am,
and always have been, willing to concede any just claim of
the working classes; and it shall be my endeavour, if once
more intrusted with your confidence, to fulfil with honour
and fidelity all the duties I may undertake, whether they
be those of a Minister of the Crown or of an independent
member of the House of Commons."
There is no probability of any opposition to Sir
John's return for the eighth time.

DURHAM (SOUTH).
Mr. H. Pease issued his address to the electors
yesterday.

ESSEX (NORTH).
The Conservatives have not yet finally matured
their arrangements here. Lieutenant-Colonel S.
B. Ruggles Brise some
time since issued an ad-
dress, announcing his intention to come forward in
the Conservative interest ; and as the sitting mem-
bers, Mr. C. Du Cane and the Right Hon. W.
Beresford, are both Conservatives, there are three
candidates for two seats. Probably, however,
matters will be adjusted in due course. Mr. Du
Cane has lost no time in issuing an address to the
electors.

The Liberals have as :yet made no public move-
ment in this constituency.

ESSEX (SOUTH).
Mr. T. W. Bramston has, after all, consented to
be again put in nomination for South Essex, in the
