REMARKS.

The barometrical pr.ssures over our islands differ little from those
on Saturday: yesterday they were lower everywhere, especially in the
N. An increase has taken place since last evening in ncrthem and
western districts, but it has not extended to southern stations, where
however, tho readings are now highest : a difference of nearly seven-
tenths of an inch exists between those at Nairn and Rochefort.
Temperature yesterday was generally high : a considerable and
general diminution has since occurred, amounting to 16 deg. at Aber-
deen. Southerly winds were prevalent yesterday: they were strong
on our southern and western coasts, and a gale was felt at Holyhead,
which subsided during the night. Westerly winds of moderate force
are generally reported this morning, but there are calms at the
entrance of the Channel. On southern and western coasts rain has
fallen. In the N. the sky is clear, but on other coasts it is cloudy,
with fog and mist in the S.W. of England.

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

---- -~-

CHELSEA.—Messrs. Hughes, Stansfeld, and Taylor, who
were appointed to arbitrate between the claims of Sir
Henry Hoare and Mr. George Odger, have recommended
the retirement of the latter.

WESTSIINSTER.—Both Mr. Mill and Captain Grosvenor
have requested their supporters to give each of them a
vote, and not to plump.

GREENWICH.—Sir Henry Watson Parker is prepared to
come forward in the Conservative interest.

BOSTON.—The Liberals have united their strength in
suporting their candidates, Messrs. Staniland and Jones.
BRlGHTON.—According to the Brighton Gazette, Mr. W.
C. L. Bashford, an influential resident Conservative, is
prepared to contest the borough on thoroughly Conservative
principles. The statement that Mr. Moor, the independent
candidate for Brighton, will receive the supp;rt of the
Conservative party in the borough, is incorrect. Mr.
Moor's address has entirely destroyed whatever Conserva-
tive feeling existed in his favour. It is expected that a
Constitutional candidate will at once be brought forward.
DENBIGHSHIRE.—Mr. John Lloyd, a wealthy tradesman,
contests this county. It is supposed that he comes out in
opposition to the Liberal member, but he does not say to
which party his support will be given.
Noßwiuli.—Sir Henry Stracey is the Conservative can-
didate.

SOUTH NOBFOLIC.—The Liberals are endeavouring to
organise an opposition to the return of Mr. C. S. Read and
Mr. E. Howes. A meeting is to be held at Wymondham
on the subject on Tuesday.
Tn .LEE.—The O'Donoghue has rr e his constituents in
Tralee. He defended his opposition to Fenianism, as
being a conspiracy of a wild and mischievous character.
He declared that he shrank from the Fenian programme,
and abhorred many of its views as anti-Irish, and would
resist them to the last drop of his blood. He pro-
claimed his full approval of Mr. Gladstone's policy.
The statement of the hon, gentleman was received as satis-
factory.
DUBLIN UNIVERSITY. —There are now four candidates
in the field for the representation of the University of
Dublin—Mr. J. T. Ball, the Solicitor-General, Sir
