LORD LORNE AND THE OBJECTIONS TO HIS CANDIDATURE.

♦ The Marquis of Lome, the Liberal candidate for the new boroush of Hamp Bead, addressing a numerously- attended public meeting ol the electors, held at the Ilollybush Assembly Room 0 , replied to objections which had been brought against him as a candidate. Lord Lome said that though he did not agree with his father in all things political, yet he felt proud of being the son of the author of The. Reign of Lair, and he also contended that it was not in accordance with the English con etitution to suppose that a person who was related to the Sovereign should abstain irom taking an active part in public matters. In answer to a third objection, he argued that the experience he had gained as Governor General of Canada waß a qualification for a Liberal candidate. He was not ashamed to say that his mind had been considerably influenced by what lie 1 had seen thero as to free churches and free i fchoola. There was an idea that those who had " handles" to their names could not be anything but Whigs. The " handle" to his name happened to be a mere courtesy title ; but he reminded the meeting of the services rendered to political progress by the Whigs in thp past, and said that he believed their modern representatives weie very much what his friends called him — a somewhat advanced Liberal. lie also appealed to the past record of his Parliamentary life to show that he had been a constant Liberal of that school, anc 1 expressed himself in favor ol the Disestab lishment of the Church of Scotland, leaving the question of endowment to be Bubsequently dealt with. He is in favor of making the sale of land as easy as the sale of an old umbrella; and, as lo Ireland he opproved oi consultations with the Nationalist psrty, with respect to which the Conservatives had been rapidly converted, but it was impossible to consent to separation. lie thought sufficient consideration had not been given to the wish of the Irish people in regard to education, and he believed that greater powers of local government might be given to them on such questions as railways. -Mter he had adverted to a number of other topics, and answered questions, a resolution in support of his candidate* was almost unanimously paesed.
