The appeals from the Registration Courts of Mid-Lothian and Linlithgow

were heard out on Tuesday ; and though the Liberal interest has rather lost in Linlithgowshire, we are happy to say it is still on the ascendant in the metropolitan county, having gained five more upon the Tories since the Court of Registration.—Seotsman [Linlithgowshire is now represented by a Tory.] The Aberdeen Herald gives the names of the following noblemen and gentlemen as Scotch University Commissioners,—the Duke of Richmond, the Earl of Aberdeen, the Earl of Errol, the Solicitor-General, Sir 1Villiam Rae, Mr. Erle Monteith, Dr. J. Abercromby, Provost Principal Jack, and two clergymen. It is added that Lord Aberdeen will probably decline to act.
