" SIR JOHN DE BEAUVOIR FOR EVER!

Free and Independent Electors of Windsor,—Keep your powder
dry. Your old friend, Sir John de Beauvoir, takes the field for the
fifth time ; and, V. ith the blessing of God on his and your united
exertions, he hopes to obtain a great and glorious victory 1"
No other candidate up to this evening has publicly announced
himself. The following are spoken of : —Colonel Reid, of the 2d Life
Guards ; Mr. John Walter, Bear-wood ; Captain Bulkeley, Ist Life
Guards ; Mr. Jeremiah Pitcher, Southwark ; Mr. East Clayton, one
of the sons of Lord Delawarr ; and Mr. J. E. Anson, Private Secre-
tary to Prince Albert. The contest, however, is expected to be be-
tween Sir John de Beauvoir, Mr. Walter, and Colonel Reid, should
these gentlemen come forward.
It is stated that Colonel Reid will have the Government and Castle
interest ; and that, under these circumstances, Captain Bulkeley will
not offer himself.

As, at the last election, is 1841, Sir John de Beauvoir polled only
130 votes out of a constituency of 642, his chance of being returned
is supposed to be very remote.

FLANDERS MAIL.

BRUSSELS, OCT. 7.—The average price of wheat last week was 23f.
62c., and that of rye, 15f. 96c. There was a pretty considerable de-
cline in the price of potatoes at Brussels the day before yesterday,
300 sacks were offered for sale ; the prices varied from 10f. to 13f.
per sack, of 100 kilogrammes (2001b5.), which is 2f. less than in the
preceding market.
A letter from Mayence, pnblished by the Rhenish Observer, says
that a serious financial crisis prevails at Frankfort at this moment.
Thus, on the 30th of last month, 20 per cent. was paid for the prolon-
gation of bills, whereas the rate of discount is generally 6 per cent.
The writer of the letter ascribes this unfortunate crisis, in a great
measure, to the all-powerful influence of Rothschild. He suggests the
foundation of a bank, which, besides the financial advantage, would
offer great political benefits to the state which should establish it.
STUTTGALD.—The Swabian Mercury states that the Government of
Wurtemburg has already rejected the renewed offer of an English
company to undertake the construction and management of an iron
railway in their kingdom.

COURT OF COMMON CoyNert..—At a Court of Common
Council, held on Thursday, the report of the Committee on
Blackfriars-bridge pier was agreed to, and ordered to be car-
ried into effect. The list of the Governors of Christ's Hos-
pital was directed to be returned to the President, to have
the Lord Mayor's name inserted in its proper place. A long
discussion then ensued on the important subject of providing
a City terminus for the metropolitan railways, originated by
a petition from the Direct London and Manchester Railway
Company, praying to be permitted to purchase Farringdon
Market for a railway terminus. This petition was, on the mo-
tion of Mr. R. Taylor,who expressed himself warmly in favour
of the project, ordered to be referred to the Improvement
Committee by an overwhelming majority, only four hands
having been held up in favour of an amendment proposed by
Deputy Godson, to the effect that it be ordered to lie on the
table. A petition from the London and Birmingham Ra.l-
way Company, praying to be allowed to purchase the site of
the Fleet Prison, for the purpose of forming a terminus, was
then presented by. Mr. R. L. Jones, and likewise (.rdered to
be referred to the Improvement Committee.—[We have a full
report of these proceedings, as likewise of various railway
meetings, in type, which we are compelled to omit to-day for
TAM Of apace.
