the purpose of urging a coalition between himself and Mr.
Beaks. A long consultation ensued, the upshot of which is
understood to be that a large meeting will be held, both can-
didates being invited to attend to give expression to their
feelings on the subject.
CHELSEA.—On Monday night Sir Henry Hoare and Mr.
George Odger, two of the Liberal candidates, addressed
densely-crowded meetings of electors; the former in the
Kensington Vestry Hall, the latter in that of Chelsea. The
two gentlemen in question have at length agreed to submit
their respective claims as candidates for the borough to ar-
bitration, and three men of standing have boon appointed on
either side.

BADNORSHIRE BOROUGIIS.—Mr. George Augustus Haig,
the Conservative candidate, after an active canvass of three
weeks, has intimated his intention of retiring, and Mr. G.
Price, the Liberal candidate, is now unopposed.

vey, jun., Conservative member, has retired. Mr. Disraeli,
Mr. Du Pro, and Mr. Lambert will, therefore, be returned
without opposition.
BIRMINGIIAM.—The chairman of the Liberal Election
Jommittee announced, at a meeting held on Tuesday that
the canvass was in such a state as to insure one of the
three Liberal candidates polling the lowest number being at
least 4,000 ahead of the higher of the two Conservative can-
didates.

DUBLIN.—Sir Dominic Corrigan, President of the College
f)f Physicians, has issued his address to the electors as the
second Liberal candidate. In his address ho avows himself
for disestablishment, land reform, and free education. A
large sum has been subscribed by the Liberal party and
by the medical profession towards the expenses of the con-
test.

NOTTINGHAM.—At a meeting of the general committee of
the. Nottingham Parliamentary Registration Association the
following resolution was unanimously adopted :—" That this
meeting pledges itself to abide by and obey the award of
tho arbitrators when given, if given before the 3d November
next, and resolve that, whether the arbitration be then con-
cluded or not, the aggregate meeting for the choice of can-
didates for the Liberal party bo held on Tuesday, the 8d
November, and that admission to such meetings be by
ticket ; and that, in the event of the failure of the arbitra-
tion, all the candidates may, if they desire it, go to that
meeting unpledged." •
NORTH DERBYSIIIRE.—Mr. H. P. Arkwright, of Wil-
lerslov Castle, Matlock, has is::ued his address to the elec-
tors of North Derbyshire, as the Conservative candidate.
BRlGHTON.—Contrary to the statement made in a previous
impression, the Herald now says " that Mr. Moor's address
has given great dissatisfaction to the Conservative party in
Brighton, and that his adhesion to Mr. Gladstone's policy of
the ecnfiscation of the revenues of the Protestant Church in
Ireland will prevent his obtaining any support from their
ranks." A Conservative will very likely come forward.
SOUTH NORTIIUMBEELAND.—Mr. 11. G. Liddell, who has
represented the county since 1852, seeks re-election. While
strongly opposed to the disestablishment of the Irish Church,
he is "prepared to give a most careful consideration to such
modifications of the establishment as a recent inquiry of a
commission may have shown to bo necessary, in oreer to
concentrate its energies, extend its uses, and rem dy its
known defects."

have resolved to adopt legal proceedings against any person
