So confident were Generals Tarleton and
Gatcoigne of being returned for Liverpool on
Thurfday, that the chairs were broug hit out in
the morning for the purpofe of ohsiriug them,
and they had ordered tumptuous dinner to
be provided In the evening when an ndepen-
eddy came forward and nominated Mr. Rofcoe.

ton, who mutt remember his unpleafant race
with Gen. Green in America, when the Eng

I ly two miles. The friends of Mr.. Rofcoe are
determined to keep the poll open the legal time,
