ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON (CITY).—A meeting, numerously at-
tended, was held at the offices of the City Conser-
vative Association, yesterday, when a requisition to
Messrs. Bell, Philip Twells, and Alderman Gibbons,
asking them to become candidates for the represen-
tation of the City, was presented to them, and they
have expressed their intention to stand.
MARYLEBONE.—Last night a meeting of the elec-
tors of this borough was held at the vestry hall of
St. Pancras, for the purpose of hearing an address
from Dr. Sandwith. Previously to the opening of
the proceedings certain persons present employed
themselves in handing about cards with an inscrip-
tion asking for votes and influence on behalf of Mr.
Thomas de Meschin, who it is understood stands in
the extreme Radical interest. The gentleman was
himself amongst the audience on this occasion.
In the opening of his speech Dr. Sandwich stated
that the word " Radical" was the only one
which expressed Lis political opinions, and
on this text he expounded his principles
and Parliamentary intentions. A resolution
in favour of Dr. Sandwith was moved, upon
which an amendment was brought forward to the
effect that the candidature of Dr. Sandwith was
only opening the way for a Conservative by divid-
ing the Liberal interest, and that the meeting ex-
pressed its confidence in Mr. Harvey Lewis and
Mr. T. Chambers. Much confusion ensued, and
finally the amendment was declared to be lost and
the resolution carried.

SOMERSET (MID).—It is reported that Mr. Wal-
ter Bagehot, who was, for a time, a candidate for
the University of London, will be requested to
stand in the Liberal interest fur the division of the
county.
