Yesterday the Times stated, in a leading article, that no

person of respectability or wealth connected with Bristol attended Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S dinner; and that he was so contemptuously neglected by the superior classes in that city, that he " was fain to take up his abode at Bristol in the apartments of a decent seed-shop-keeper." This morning, the truth of the matter comes out. A correspondent of the Times states, that Mr. GEORGE EDDIE SANDERS, the " seed- shop- keeper " alluded to, " resides at Clifton, in a mansion which few noblemen would despise, and that his station is at least sufficient to entitle him to the distinction of being the host of Lord JOHN Rus- SELL." " Mr. SANDERS," it is added, " may smile to learn that he resides at his place of business on Bridge Parade." The Times declares that it publishes this letter with "great plea- sure,"—perfectly delighted, no doubt, at being convicted of a most cot!. temptible misrepresentation,—but goes on to insinuate that Mr. SANDEIIS was the only person of the wealthier classes who noticed Lord Jonx. Luckily, the Bristol Gazette of Thursday has given a bat of tire gentlemen who were present at the dinner ; and any pe;s n at ell acquainted with Bristol, will recognize among them the mines t f many of th,! most wealthy and respectable merchants. Never was lying misrepresentation so systematically adopted, in great matters and in small, as by the Tories at the present time. Not a day passes but their journals insinuate r announce absolute Llsc- hoods, and personal slauders. The public will soon be in possession of all the facts relative to liaspast.'s concern in the late Carlow Election. The Dublin Pilot of Wednesday gives the following extract from a letter received from O'CONNELL- " Having obtained the ready and hearty concurrence of Mr. Vigor. to publish the entire detail of all the facts connected with the late Carlow Election, announce in your paper of Wednesday, that on Friday you will give these details to the public. Mr. Ex-Sheriff Raphael will appear, I think, in a melancholy condition : but of that I am careless. I am quite sure that not a single stain will appear upon the conduct of those who placed in him a confi- dence of which he was most unworthy."
