A report alheled to of the purchase of Oakwood by Sir Thomas Baring, we are informed on good authority, is at all events premature ; nor is there any probability of Sir Thomas's standing in the Liberal interest for Chichester. There is no doubt that this report originated in the great dissatisfaction which the conduct of Lord Arthur Lennox in Parliament has given to the constituency of Chichester, and shows their anxiety to get rid of a person whose political dishonesty would he a disgrace to any constituency in the kingdom. The electors of Chi- chester would be glad to send his Lordship to the right about.—Briyhem Guardian.
Mr. Cresswell has announced his intention of not offering himself for Liverpool at the next election. The assigned reason is, the great in- road his Parliamentary duties make upon his professional employment. Mr. Walinsley, now Mayor of Liverpool, will stand on the Liberal in- terest.
