POLITICAL MOVEMENTS.

The Hon. George Keppel commenced an active canvass of
the burgesses of the borough of Lynn on Monday morning;
in consequence of which Lord George Bentick and Sir Stratford
Canning called upon the electors on Tuesday morning. The town
is in as great a state of bustle and excitement as on the eve of a
geueral election.—Norfolk Chronicle.
There is little doubt that Mr. John Williamson, of Whickham,
will offer himself for the representation of Gateshead, a vacancy
for which must soon occur. It is needless to be more explicit.
Mr. Williamson is an honourable and respectable titan, lino,
what should be of some importance in a Member of Parliament,
exemplary in all the relations of public and private
Newcastle Journal,
oRcOTERiittRE M P.'s.—" Rumour," says the Kiddermin-
ster Messenger, "is loud with her thousand tongues on the sub-
ject of the future representatives to be returned to parliament
from Worcestershire. In the event of a dissolution thestrength
of opposing parties in the county may be very much changed.
The western division will be contested by Lord East nor against
Capt. Wilmington, and the eastern division by Lord Deerhurst
and Sir Horace St. Paul against both the present sitting mem- •
bers, Mr Coukes and Mr. Holland. At Kidderminster, .Mr. It.
Godson is pledged to stand against Mr. Phillips. At Beadlev
it is thought that Mr. Childe, jun.,. of Kinlet, will meet Sir
Thos. Winnington. At Evesham, in the event of Sir Charles
Cockerell's death, his nephew, Mr. George Rushout Bowles,
an officer in the guards, will occupy his place; and at the next
general election the eldest son of Sir Charles anticipates filling
the other seat, instead of Mr. Burt hwick : the two cousins differ
'in their politics. At Dudley Mr. Merr) weather Turner. is
already in the field against Mr. Hawkes. At Droitwich Mr.
Pakington will succeed his friend Mr. Barneby, who goes for
the county of Hereford. In the city of Worce,rer Col. Davies
is evpected to supersede Mr, Robinson. If these events should
all happen, as some enthnsiasts desire, then the Melbourne
cabinet could only reckon ,on Col. Davies and Mr. C. Coekerell
—two totes from tweive.Mkniliers for places whence. they now
have seven supporters."

EXTEMPORARY PRAYER

Fifty-seven of the most exemplary clergymen belonging to
the arch-diocese of Dublin have signed an address 'to Dr.
Whately. remonstrating with his Grace for prohibiting the use
of extemporaneous prayers in their religious meetings. The
address is conceived in a truly christiati spirit, but its length
precludes us from doing more than presenting an extract ur
tyro to our readers:—

" It is to tour Grace's observatiors on extemporary prayer
that we would principally direct our attention. deeply lamenting
the view your Grace has taken of it, as well nn others' account
as our own. We grieve that the line of argument adopted by
your grate is calculated to wound and offend a very large body
a sincere Christians, among whom we could name the Esta-
blished Church of Scotland, as it denies the character of prayer
to their worship, because it is presented to God Without a pre-
composed form; and, with regard to ourselves, we grieve that
an attempt is mode to shackle and hind our consciences in all
common supplication, in all joint worship, where 'two or three
are met together.' It is on this part of your Grace's letter that
We feel ourselves called upon most respectfully. hut firmly, to
express our sentiments; and we cannot enter tition the subject
without declaring the very high veneration whii'h we entertain
forthe Liturgy of our church. We esteem it as better calcu-
lated than the very best extemporaneous prayers for the gene-
r'l end,ordinary use of the Church in -public Worship; we place
it chly 'secondlo the scriptures of truth, and we love it. ;us hay-
