LINCOLNSHIRE. 
On account of the two fpires of the Lin- 
€oln, Cathedral having been confidered in a 
Gangerous ftate, it is in agitation to decapitate 
the towers of thefe their very ponderous bur- 
dens. If it is effential, it muft doubtlefs be 
done ; however, the aneigadstan may repine 
at the leaft prominent part of this venerable 
pile being removed, or its grandeur diminith- 
ed; much more fo great an addition to the 
beauty of the CaBGeat, as the two fpires.— 
Great Tom o’Lincola is to be rung no more! 
The full fwing of four tons and a half is 
found to injure the tower where he hangs: 
he has accordingly been chained and rivetted 
down, ‘* fo that (as the Lincolnthire papers 
exprefs it) inftead of the full bold mouthful 
he has been ufed to fend forth, he is enjoined 
in future merely to wag his tongue !”*

LEICESTERSHIRE, 
It is creditable to the literary fpirit of the 
county of Leicefter, that Mr. Gombe, an ace 
tive bookfeller of Leicefter, has beenencou- 
raged to take the elegant building lately ereét- 
ed in Leicefter for an hotel, and to occupy it as 
a bookfelles’s-fhop, library, and news-room, 
Of all the late contefted ele€tions, not one 
was fo fharp while it lafted as that of Lei- 
cefter ; it clofed, however, though not withs 
outanimofity, yet.with perfet good-will on 
all fides. Mr. M‘Carthy finding, at the clofe 
of the fourth day’s poll, from the circum- 
ftance of his late arrival, notwithftanding the 
popular enthufiafm in his favour, that he was 
not likely to have a final majority, declined 
his pretenfions in fo handfome a manner, as 
to draw forth the thanks of Mr. Babington, 
the approbation of the Court, and the repeated 
plaudits of the people. Mr. M‘Carthy, how- - 
ever, has announced his intention, by public 
advertifement, to avail himfelf of the firft op 
portunity to offer himfelf again as a candidate 
for the borough of Leicefter.
