GENERAL ELECTION.

CITY ELECTioN.—Yesterday, at two o'clock,
the SheriffS attended at Guildhall, to read the
Writ, and make proclamation for the election of
four citizens to serve in Parliament. The day for
proceeding to the election is Tuesday next.—
There are already seven candidates.
We understand Mr. BUTTERWORTH, one of the
late Representatives for Coventry, has expe-
rienced the most flattering encouragement for his
re-election to represent that City on his canvass.
Sir MATTHEW WHITE RIDLEY seems to he se-
cure at Newcastle-upon-Tyne. So we conceive
is Mr. ELLlsota. At the late Meeting he entered
into the charges brought against him, which he
successfully refuted, and proved himself an indet.
pendent friend, not a servile tool, of Government.
The refusal of the Hon. W. H. J. SCOTT to
accept the offer of support at Newcastle has oc-
casioned m►tch disappointment, as the Electors
longed to manifest their• respect for the character
of his venerable father.
Mr. IVaernmaN has some pretensions to support
in the City, as he has hilly shown that his poli-
tics are, at least, widely different from those 01
the HGNYS. the Woow FItS, the PRESToNS, the
WATSONS, and such hackneyed brawlers as GALE
JONES, and the whole gang of disorganizing Re-
formers.
It Major CARTWRIGHT should succeed at %Vest-
minster, and deliver his usual copious speeches, in
the Senate, we shall have another Long Parlia-
ment, for lie will assitrenly set the House asleep,
and the busit►ess of the nation must be protracted.
At all events, it is probable that nothing will be
heard but involuntary yawns, and there certainly
will be but one way in which his hearers can
repose confidence.
Sir CHRISTOPHER HAWKINS unites the voice of
all parties at Pent yn. The contest, therefore,
will be between Mr. ANDERDoN, of the House of
MANNING and ANDERDON, and Mr. SivANN, the
late Member. There is, however, little doubt of
the success of the latter.
Mr. MICHAEL ANGPLO TAYLOR, who if not the
most sagacious politic►an in the wort I, at least
means well, is not likely to lose his interest in the
City of Dublin. It may fairly" he 'said of this
Gentleman that he has not been the slave of fac-
tion any more than the tool of Ministers.
The cont,st at Newcastle-Holder-Lyme w 11 be
severe. Sir JOHN BoUGHEY, M• KINNEESLEY,
and Mr WILmoT, are the rival candidates
Mr. GLADSTONE has been invited to stand for
Lancaster.
Mr. MADDOCKS, Mr BURREL, and Mr ELLIS,
have commenced an active canvass for Boston.
Lieut.-Colonel Huones, and Mr: COsT, are
promised support at Grantham.
Lewis WESTON DILLWYN, Esq. is likely to
succeed in Glainorw.....hire.
Lord TAVISTOCK has started against Colonel
Oseoes7 for the County of Bedford, but the
friends of the latter are under no alarm.
The friends of Generals FINCH and MANNERS;
the former Members for the Boraugh of Cam-
bridge_ have no doubt of their eventual SUCcesS.
They are opposed by H. J. ADEANE, Esq..
Lord C. S. MANNERS told Lord F G. OseoeNZ
have nor met with any opponents in their can-
vass to► the County of Canrl►ridge ; or Lord PAL-
MERsToN and Mr. SMYTH int' the University.
Lord FREDERICK. MoNTA,GOE tool Mr. FEL-
LOWS st3llll for the County of Huntingdon
Messrs. W. A. 'IIONTAGUE and CALVERT for the
Borough.
Mr. PYM offers again for the County of Bed-
ford.

Mr. FARMER'S retirement from Huntingdon,
induc,d Captain NioNTAGutt to offer himself as a
Candidate for that Boiongh.
Major-General S,r R. HUSSPY has posted so
expeditiously from the British Army in Fr.inre,
that he has already reached Truro, where he is in
active Canvass.

Sir LAWRENCE PALK, Bart. mee's with great
success in his canvass for the Borough of Ash-
burton.
Mr. VYSE and Mr ROBINSON retire from Bed.
fords!' ire.
Noniron seems disposed to cbuse the Lion. Co-
lonel CUST and Mr. SLAne.
Great efforts are making to secure the return
of Mr. BASTARD for the County of Devon.
Mr. BULLER retires with honour and :egret
from the representation of Exeter. Lord EBRING-
TON continues to be very active in his canvHss.--
Sir T. ACLAND is not less zealous on his part.

toucArrox.---On Tuesday morning last, the
ceremony of laying the foundition stone of a
building for the education of four hundred children
in the national system of education, took place at
S.ockwell, in the parish of Lambeth. The Arch-
bishop of CANTERBURY obligingly assisted upon
tl►e occasion. His Grace expressed his heart-
felt wish for the success of the Establichment, his
particular anxiety for the prosperity of an Insti-
tution so immediately in bis own neighbourhood,
and his fervent desire that the blessings of educa-
tion should be universally diffused throughout
the land. The concourse of spectators upon this
occasion was exceedingly numerous.

Yesterday, a singular accident occurred in Con-
duit-street. Mr. LUNG ‘VELLBSLaY Pote got of
out his gig in Bond-street, at the end of Conduit-
street, and resigned the management of the horse
and gig to his groom. At that instant, the horse,
a spirited animal, took fright at something, and
ran furiously up Conduit-street. The groom's
efforts to manage him proved useless. The spec-
tators were greatly alarmed (or the safety of the
young man ; the horse passed over Swallow-
street, and came in eontact with the "post and the
shutters of the linen-draper's shop, the corner of
Tyler's-street. The concussion was so great,
that the groom was thrown up to the height of
the lamp iron, and nearly eight yards on. the pave-
ment, from the vehicle. The horse fell, but we
are glad to say that neither the groom nor horse
was hurt. The gig was broken in pieces. The
shutters of the shop window, though two- inches
thick, were split in an instal:Re

ROYA L ACADEMY:

(Continued.)

SCULPTURE.
1085. Bust of .11r. B. R. Haydon. E. H. nA I IX) A.
1087. Bust of his Father. Do.

Mr. DAILY Is an Artist of rising merit. If Mr. HAYDON is
so furious a fellow as the Boa represents hint, we tremble
for the Academicians. The head of Mr BAILY'S Father is
executed with an accurate hand and with a correct and dis-
criminating eye.

1109. Mary Magdalen anointeth Christ's feet. H. Rossi.
Simplicity of design cannot be carried farther than in this
composition: as a study, we notice it willingly as promissory
of future advance. To shake off the vitiated refinements of
Foreign Schools would be a valuable achievement in every
country, but the experiment 'is ardnouS.

1112. Cupid disarmed : an ,Inaereantie. E. H. BAI LY, A.
A singular contrast to the design last mentioned. The
group is spirited, the figures graceful, and the whole has au
air of truth ; but the Artist is to be warned against a false
standard of truth. We counsel him to read NORTHCOTE%
excellent paper in The " on the Imitation of the

Stage."

1 1117 . Flora :.a Statue in Marble for the Earl of Darnley. Do.
A Statue by the same Artist, displaying beauties unalloyed
with the theatrical graces of the former group. When he
shall add correctness of contour and proportions equal to the
fleshy softness of the figure before us, he will rank high in
the class of aspirants.
1103. Bust of ..S'ir 11. C. Englefield, Bart. F. CHANTREY,
R. A. Elect.
1104. Bust of B. trest,Esq. P. R. A. Do.
1 105. Bust of Sir Joseph Banks, Bart. Do.
We have again to notice the great merits of this Artist.—
These three Busts are admirable representations of the ori-
ginals. There is more of the dignified character in the head
of Sir .losEPIr bAN KS than has been shewn in any other re-
semblance of him. The acute observation in the countenance
of the Pres-dvnt of the Royal Academy is also firmly ex-
pressed. There is a mellowness of execution in these heads
even surpassing some of the former works of the same Artist.
