Rochester. - Thanks for Mr Monckton's letter about the Brewood election; resigned in defeat and would not have expressed annoyance; local favour prevailed over testimonial evidence; believes Mason's testimonials were fifth-rate; thinks more highly of Whewell, having received his gracious reply to congratulations; asks what Milnes thinks of the Morning Chronicle on himself and Disraeli on the Oxford Poetry question; Milnes should attend to personal matters this winter; 'you have not the obstacle of a College Fellowship to prevent it'.
