ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

WAREFIELD.—Mr. Charlesworth will, it is said, be
candidate for this borough in the Conservative interest at
the general election. The sitting member is Mr. W. H.
Leatham, a Liberal, with whom Mr. Charlesworth con•,
tested the representation in 1859.

. emu...ism—The Conservative -nicralap.r, Mr. W. 14.7":'"'"'`
Hodgson, will be opposed lay Sir Wilfrid Lawson, who
eat for the city from 1859 to 1865, and who lately refused
an invitation to stand in the Liberal interest for Sun-
derland.

COCKERMOUTIL-It is rumoured that Mr. Isaac Fletcheni
who unsuccessfully contested this borough against Major
Green Thompson a week or two ago, will again come forward.
Both the sitting members—Lord Mayo and Major Thomp.
son-- are Conservatives. One of them—most probably the
latter—must retire at the dissolution, as Cockermouth is
one of the boroughs placed in Schedule A of the Reform.
Act of last year.

WirrrFrAvEN.—Mr. Cavendish Bentiuck is not likely to
be disturbed in the possession of the seat which he has
held since 1865. He is connected by marriage with the
family of the Earl of Lansdale, whose influence is very
powerful in the borough.
EAST CUMBERLAND.—There is a rumour that Sir R.
Vane, of Armathwaite Hall, and Mr. R. C. Musgrave,
of Edenhall, will be brought out in opposition to th
present Liberal members, the Hon. C. Howard and Mr..
W. Marshall.

WEST CEMBERLAND.—The Hon. Percy 'Wyndham and
Captain Lowther, both Conservatives, will scarcely be
opposed. The influence of Lord Leconfield and the Earl
of Lonsclale is powerful in this division.
KING'S COUNTY.—The Liberals intend to fight for both
seats at the next election. The present members are Mr.
J. G. King (C.), and Sir Patrick O'Brien (L.) At the
election in 1865 Sir Patrick had a majority of only six
votes over Mr. Pope Hennessey.
YOUGIIAL..—The votes of Sir J. M`Kenna having caused
much dissatisfaction, he will lose the support of the
Liberal party. Mr. Francis Lyons, the present mayor oe
Cork, and son to Dr. Lyons, who was the " father of the
Liberal party " in Cork for years, and who represented
the city up to his death, has been favourably spoken of.
So also has Sir John Arnott, as well as a local landlord,
Mr. Little.

NEW Ross.—Mr. Heron, a barrister, is spoken of as a
candidate in the Liberal interest, in opposition to Colong'
Tottenham.

ACCIDENT AND GALLANT RESCUE.—A few days
ago Mr. Charles Whitehead, of West Farleigh, Kent,
while leisurely walking by the Pent, near the Crosswall,
Dover, saw a boy of 14 fall from the side of the road into
the water. Mr. Whitehead immediately laid hold of an
iron chain attaching a barge to the quay, swung himself
along it, and, just as the lad was sinking the third time,
laid hold of him and held him above water for some time.
The boy was quite insensible. Neither of them could
swim. The boy was taken to the hospital, where, after a
time, he was recovered.

THE DARGAN TESTIMONIAL FUND.—Sir Joseph
N. M`Kenna, M.P., in reply to a preliminary circular
from the honorary secretary of the committee of the fund
being organised to purchase an annuity for Mrs. Dargan,
thus writes :—" 84, Lancaster-gate, London, May 28,
1868. My dear sir, I regard the provision by the people
of Ireland of a suitable income for the widow of William
Dargan as an act of duty, which they are just enough,
generous enough, and not too poor to discharge. Of all
the public men I have known, of all the great agents in
the regeneration of our country, in the organisation of its
industry, and in the struggle for its advancement in the
arts of peace, there has not been alive for the last twenty
years one to whom Ireland was more indebted than t()
William Dargan. I enclose a cheque for £lOO, my con-
tribution to the proposed fund.—l am, &C., JOSEPH NEALI3
WREN-NA. To Richard Martin, Esq.,
7, Merrion-square,
Dublin."

CANON GIRDLESTONE AND THE AGRICULTURAL
LAnounEßs.—The agricultural labourers of East Devon
were addressed on Monday by Canon Girdlestone, of Hal.
Berton. He strongly advised them to form a union for re.
monstrance with their employers; they would thus, he
said, secure their independence, and he would heartily co-
operate with them in the movement. He had been the
means of slightly increasing the wages in the county by
sending about 100 labourers to various parts of England.
A friend of his in Yorkshire had written thus :—" When
the men you sent me Erst came they could not do above a
third as much work as my own men do, but it is wonderful
what twelve months' beef and mutton have done for them."
lie (the canon) replied : " All that Devonshire men want
when they get in Yorkshire is a proper quantity of beef."
Yes, it was beef they wanted, instead of the dry bread and
musty cheese that they got in their own county. That
morning a young man had called at the vicarage, and told
him that he had come for his brother ; he had been work:
ing in Yorkshire as a labourer, and his first earnings were
£l7 a year, and " all found him." He advised the labourers
to go on agitating for higher wages,
and he would their

Profewor Frankland, F.R.S., in his analysis of the waters for
December, 1865, in the report to the Registrar-General, states,
"With regard to the filtration of this water (New River) through
animal charcoal, it will be observed that, although the total daily
domestic supply of a house on Haverstock Hill has passed
through the same filter for seven months, the animal charcoal
still retans practically unimpaired its power of abstracting or-
ganic impurities."
