vent; and certain Resolutions were passed, tending
to promote his interest. Sir JAMES SHAW'S friends,
to the number of SOO, assembled at the City of Lon-
don Tavern, and passed similar Resolutions.- Alder-
man ATKINS is supported by all the shipping interest,
and a great portion of the Merchants. The friends
of the Louie MAYOR consider his success as certain ;
but Mr. WAITIIMAN is busy canvassing in person,
and is determined to maintain the contest. Alder.
men COMER and WOOD are also indefatigable in their
exertions among their friends.
We were correct in stating that Mr. THOMAS re.
tires from th& representation of Chichester, but it is
not true that lte came in upon the Duke of RlCH-

his-Grace's eldest son. Mr. THOMAS was. the Mem-
ber in the independenkinterest. -
Mr. JOHN FULLER, of Rose Hill, has declined
offering himself again for the County of Sussex.

able HENRY Garr BENNETT, Liemenant•General Sir ••
ROWLAND HILL (nominated by his father Sir JOHN
HILL, Bart. at the solicitations of many respectable
Gentlemen), and BENJAMIN BENYON, Esq. An active
canvass has already commenced. The Honourable
WILLIAM HILL retires for the present.
The Candidates for the representation of the City
of Exeter in the ensuing Parliament are, James
BULLER and WILLIAM COURTEWAY, Esqrs. At pre-
sent them is no appearance of any opposition, as no
other Gentlemen have yet started.
Sir LAWRENCE PALK, Bart. has declined repre-
senting the County of Devon in Parliament.. No
Candidate has yet offered himself.
Dr. CRomprorr stands for Nottingham against Mr.
SMITH and Mr. COKE.

dated from*Durham, stating that ill health detains
him there, but announcing his intention of offering
himself again.
Three Candidates have started for the Clyde Di.'

barton, and Renfrew : Mr.-Hoverousr, the sitting.
Member ; Mr. CasurELL,-of Blytheswood, the late'
Member ; and Mr. KIRKMAN FINLAY, the Chairman
of the Chamber of Commerce of Glasgow.—Mr.'
FINLAY offers himself on independent principles.
Lord James O'BRIEN, we believe, will be opposed
to the BURTON interest in the County Clare.
There will be a sharp contest in Galway.
We understand that Mr. WHITE has declared him-
self a Candidate for the County of Leitrim. As the
present Members, Messrs. CLEMENTS and Lemming,
are determined to offer themselves, it is expected that
there will be a very warm contest.
We bear Colonel BARRY has relinquished his in-
tention of opposing Sir Fulumucic. .FLOOD, in theo
County of Wexford ; as, however, Colonel RAM is
expected to persevere, there is likely to be a strong
opposition to the present Members. •
Lord DELVIN is expected to declare himself a
Candidate for the County of Westmeath. The Hon.
Colonel PAKENHAM and Mr. ROCHFORT will un-
doubtedly offer themselves again.
Colonel LONGTIELD, we have no doubt, will be re-
turned without opposition for the Cittof Cork.
Lord Forums has arrived from England, on his
way to the County of LOngtord. His Lordship and
Sir THOMAS FEATHERSTONE, are expected to be re.
elected for that County, without opposition.
