GENERAL ELECTION;

We hate authority to state, that the fiends of Sit
TitomAs Tuarox, in Southwark, intend to invite
that Gentleman again to offer himself as a Candidate
to represent them in the new Parliament.

It is now certain that there will be no contest for
the Countyof York. Lord MILTON and Mr: STUART
WORTLEY will walk over the course, without a com-
petitor.—Mr. STUART WORTLEY, in the course of his
canvass, at Leeds, on Saturday, was assailed in the
most scandalous manner, with kissings and hootings,
is his passage through the streets of that town ; and,
had not a number of personal friends rallied round
him, he would more than orce have received bodily
injury. There was an incessant cry among the mul-
titude—" Down with him ;" " Are you nbt a tool of
Ministers?" Who supported the Manchester mur-
derers?" and, in fact, every opprobrious epithtt was
profusely lavished upon him,
Sir C. BURRELL, it is said, has declined a Contest
for Bramber. Mr. Lovb and Mr. SMITII are Can-
didates.

Mr. ItRUCE, veto assisted in saving the lire of LA..
VALETTC, has started for Lewes.
The lion. LAWRENCE DUNDAS and gaRNTADUICE
WYVILL, Esq. have commenced an active canvass for
the City of. York.
ROBERT bOWNfE, Esq. of Appinj has started for the
Stirling District of Burghs.

THEATRES:—The Hebrew, at Droty-tang, and
Ivanhoe, at Covent-Gatden, were repeated on Satur•
day evening with encreased success, At the latter
Theatre the Piece is greatly improved by making
Ivanhoe the son of Cedric, instead of Richard Lion-
Heart. Both Houses were well attended,

Within these feW nights, a number of respectable
Gentlemen have been robbed at Covent-Garden,
and Drury-Lane Theatres, and also at the EnglisH
Opera House, in the Strand. One of the gang of
pickpockets has been committed to Newgate for trial,
and another, of the name of Joseph Barnett, conwnit•
ted for further examination.

Four more of the Italian boys, who infest the streets
with white mice, squirrels, monkeys, and dancing
dolls, were on Saturday committed from HattonL
Garden Office to the House of Correction for ten
days. Lord SIDMOUTII has been requested to send
them out of the country, under the Alien Act.
A most extraordinary circumstance occurred a fey/
days since. On Christmas eve, the son of Mr. SIMP-
soN, of Sweetinis-alley, who was going out as Chief
Mate to an Indianian, landed, with six others, at
Portsmouth, to spend the day ; on their return in the
evening, the boat was upset, and they all perished.
The body of Mr. SIMPSON was washed on shore on
Sunday se'nnight, after being ten weeks and two days
in the water. A quantity of dollars, his watch, chain,
and seals, were all found upon him ; but the face was
so mutilated, that his features could not be recog,
nixed. The body was brought to London last week,
and on Sunday interred in Hackney Church-yard.

CORN EXCHANGE, MARK-LANE, MARCH 6--
Our market was rather thinly- supplied with Wheat
this morning, in consequence of which, fine runs from
Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, met ready sale at an ad-
vance of from 2s. to 3s. per qr. on last Monday's
prices. Fine Barley was also brisk sale; and from
Is. to 2s. per qr. dearer, although the supply was
tolerably large from Norfolk and Suffolk. Peas are
2s. higher; and new Beans met ready sale at last
week's prices. The Oat trade was full as brisk as an
Friday, and rather dearer for fine corn.
