LEOMINSTER.

The following is an extract of a letter dated T,entninster, June
17.—" In consequence of a question which was raised as to my
eligibility by Mr. Stephenson's counsel. he endeavouring to show
that I was a contractor with Government within the Mraning of
the act 22 Geo. 3, cap. 45. the returning effacer made a dotNe
return, a course which has not been adopted, as my counsel stated,
for the lougperiod of 1011 years, it being usual in such cases, where
a question as to eligibility has been raised, to return the candidata
who had the majority upon the poll, leaving the other parties to Ley
recourse to a petition. The consequence of this return to me u
that although I enjoy all the other privileges of a Member of Par.
liament, I cannot take my seat until a Committee of the House shall
decide the question. " T. Bur."

GREAT MARLOW.

The contest at this place arose out of an accidental interview a:
an Inn at Marlow, on the Ist instant. between one of the inhatii.
tants of that town and Mr. Wooler, long known as the F.diter of
the Black Dual: On a representation being made to Mr. Wavle,
that a candidate was wanted to oppose the return of the Messrs.
Williams. Mr. Wooler undertook to produce a person of repo-
tatiori adapted for the people's choke. He left Marlow on that
etrasui on Saturday morning, and returned on Sunday evening.
bringing with him the clerk of the Soliciting of J. Merriman, E,q,
Mr. Morrison was urged to be at Marlow as early as poonble on
Monday morning, and assured that his election would be certain if
he arrived by nine o'clock. Circumstances, however, prevented
his arrival till the afternoon.
On Friday the poll commented. The town was thronged to
excess; and such a tussah prevailed, that it was found necessary to
adjourn the poll to ten o'clock oa Saturday morning.
At the final close of the poll that afternoon, the nu*bers an-
nounced were as follows:

0. Williams

T. P. Williams

Morrison . . 122
The two Candidates at the head of the poll were then ded wed
duly elected, but it was intimated that Mr. Morrison, though he
had lost the election there, would, from basing a majority of kgal
rotes, gain his object ehewbere.

LIVERPOOL.
The Liverpool Papers state that the conduct of Mr.
HusnissJs, and the explanations which he gave of his
pilitical views and principles, have completely remora
the erroneous impressions which had prevaled in that
town in relation to the Combination Laws, and other
measures of his adoption.

MUILSAT.

There was a tremendous push to-day, arid lots of
" broad cloth" was potted on both sides. Even now
the result is a question of grert doubt. The p. 41 closed
a little before five o'clock. An imm-nse moltituJe
accompanied Lord BAgrave and the Honourable Mr.
Simpson ti the Royal Hotel, from the histings, ani
when arrived there, Mr. Simpson, decl lied the state
of the pog:
Betsrase . . • . 750
Egerton . . . ?02
Grosvenor . . . . 691 .
And as Mr. Townsend was no where, Mr. Simpson Sid
it was not worth while tnentionining his numbers ! Such
a close contest never took place before—and there is
little doubt but that the el ction will ultinsrtely turn on
about twenty votes. Much money has been spent sin
both sides—probably 20,0001.
