THE ELECTION.—'We are glad to find that the en-
tire list of electors has been organized into minute districts,
each of which is presided ever by one or more zealous canvas-
sers, who will receive the promises of the voters, and report to
the General Committee. Mr. Michael Browne, the legal
agent of Mr. Sturge's friends, has been indefatigable in pro.
noting the completeness of this arrangement ; and this gentle-
man has also taken the opinion of Mr. Boothby, barrister-at.
law, as to the mode in which the election is purposed to be
conducted, and the latter gentleman ha% been particularly re-
quired to advise as to the nature of the evidence which, in the
present state of election law would be necessary to support a
petition against the return of any party who might have recourse
to bribery. The result is that so complete a system of
watchfulness is organised over all parties who are supposed
ever to have offered or received the wages of corruption, that,
we deem it utterly impossible that any such acts can escape
detection. With this state of things, and with the recent ex-
amples of so many seats being voided for corrupt practices, we
cannot believe that any political party will be able to find a
candidate to place himself in the unenviable position of first
purchasing his seat by bribery, and then losing it, /fier the
expense of a petition has been added to the original cost. Mr.
Boothby has been retained as counsel to Mr. Sturge, during the
election, and in that capacity has been in Nottingham during
the past week.—Nottingham Journal.
110 P INTELLIGENCE.—MAIDSTONE.--Within the
last week the bines have made astonishing progress in this
neighbourhood, indeed we may say in the greatest part of Mid-
Kent. The only complaint we have heard is on account of the
ravages of the flea in some grounds under the hills, but the
progress of the bines is so rapid that there is every reason to
believe, in most cases, they will out-grow the ravages of these
their 4' natural enemies."—C4N:r.7.3tlXX : The hops in th.s
