of Earl Cowper, and Sir Henry Baring, are busy can-
vassing.

tend again coming forward for the County. A requi-
sition to Lord Ebrington is in course of signature.

The friends of General Gsscoyne are confident of his re-
election.

Fazakerly having retired, Mr. C.
Tennyson has come forward, and Colonel Sibthorpe will
again stand. We hear rumours of a very powerful rival
in the person of Lord Mexborough.
Mitt nwroxz.—Mr. Roberts, who has already repre-
sented the Borough in three Parliaments, and Mr. Al-
derman Winchester, who comes forward as the successor
of Mr. 'Wells, are the only two gentlemen who have yet
announced themselves, and there does not appear much
probability of any opposition.
NOIIW IC H.—lt is understood that R. H. Gurney, Esq.
has acceded to the requisition, signed by 1,140 freemen
and freeholders, calling upon him to offer himself for the
representation of this city. Dr. Lushington has been so-
licited to stand on the same side, and it is believed is
not disinclined to come forward. Daniel Gurney, Esq.
of Runcton, is also talked of, but nothing authentic has
transpired as to the probability of a contest. Mr. W.
Smith has not yet publicly announced his intention to
retire.

NORTOLK.-Mr. Coke has again announced his in-
tention to offer himself to the freeholders.

NoaTiivessaLAx D.—There la no doubt that Mr.

strong the contest may be.

Stamford Champion.

of the Hon. John Kennedy Erskine, of Dun, son-in-law

Co. KERZY.—The Knight of Kerry has addressedhis
constituents, but says nothing about the lases. The Hon.
William Browne is pursuing an active canvassthrough the
county, in company with John O'Connell, FAR. Major
Crosbie is equally on the alert. It is uncertain if Lord
Ennismore will stand for Kerry this election. He has
not yet addressed the electors. His lordship enjoys
powerful influence both in the county Limerick and Cork.
Judge Day's interest does not go to the Crosbie family
in the approaching election for Kerry, as bad been
supposed
DUBL .
IN, July 13.—Mr. O'Connell arrived at King's-
town this morning, on board one of the Government
packets, which did not reach the harbour until nearly
eleven o'clock, owing to an accident that occurred to the
machinery. A large number of persons had assembled on
the beach, and on Mr. O'Connell's appearance, they re-
peatedly cheered for " the Liberator, who had put down
Doherty." It was a very singular coincidence, that Mr.
Doherty came over in the same packet, and was just
passing the crowd when his name was pronounced so un-
courteously : he was not, however, recognized by
them. Lord 4 and other Irish members were
also passengers. r. O'Connell and several of his
friends breakfasted at the Royal Hotel, which he leR at
twelve, for his residence in Merrion-square. A meet-
ing is to be held at the Parliamentary Intelligence-office,
in Stephen-street, at half-past one, when Mr. O'Connell
is to state the course he intends to pursue regarding the
elections. He will not stand for Clare ; and it is not at
this moment certain whether he will offer himself for the
counties of Meath, Wexford, or Waterford. Three
o'Clock.—The meeting in Stephen-street is not yet
over. Mr. O'Connell proposes that an Election Com-
mittee shall be formed in each'county, to demand pledges,
and organise opposition against candidates who will not
oppose the Wellington Administration. There have
been processions in Omagh, and other places in the
North—a little rioting, but I have heard of no serious
conflict.

Dr. Majendie, the late Bishop of Bangor, whose death
took place a few days since, was one of his present Ma-
jesty's instructors, and sailed, we believe, with the King
on his first voyage to America and the West Indies.
A double guard has been mounted at the Queen's
town residence, opposite York House, in the Stable-yard,
St. James's.

His Grace the Duke of Gordon gave a splendid dinner
on Friday last to his Grace the Duke of Richmond, Lord
Hill (the Commander-in-Chief), the Foreign Ambas-
sadors, Sir Charles Flower, Mr. Rothschild, and several
Noblemen and Gentlemen.

The intention of her Majesty holding Drawing-roans
is said to be abandoned for the present, there being no
suit of rooms adapted to the purpose.
The Duke of Bedford is said to have obtained, miller

the new reign. what was denied him under the last—the
appointment to the vacant Deanery of Peterborough.
The proposed change in the uniforms of naval officers,
though done with the considerate view of savings:penes,
is far from agreeable to the whole service, so difficult is
It to please every body.
