It happens that Mr. Gaskell is an unitarian, audio Wakefield there is much strength among the evangelical thatch party and the Unita rian dissenters. During the severe mutest white took place fur Yorkshire in 1807, the present Visor of Wakefield was as active partisan for Mr. Lessike, afterwards the Earl of Hare wood. Is 1810, upon this valuable living becoming vacant, this gentleman received it from the crown, as was understood, at the instigation of this family. It was not sorption& the= l : l ! the vicar's gratitude to the hoses of should make him desirous to me a member of that family in the position of a menthe, he dB, town. The influent* of this gentle men was escisiderabbt, and it was united with that of the nose Neve partisans for the conservative. A poll ens teken,bil tee popular feeling was too strongly k hem d Mr. Oaken, te render it possible to 4110 bin hem the seat by say ordinary means. 4117 voted est of 611 . registered, and Mr. Oath& was returned by a rosjiesty of nearly 60, the numbers be ing—he Gmkell, 277; Lamellae, 220. The number Mr. Lscelles riled upon this occa sion was greater than his partisans had expected, and the majority, though large, was narrower than the liberals believed probable. There were various reagens for this. The tones had strained every exertion, whilst the liberals had reposed in fancied security of an easy triumph. The regtstra'ion had not been attended to, and the lists were in an un sound state. For instance, whilst there had been 722 electors on the register fur 1832, that number had de clined, in the face of an incresaing population, to 617 in 1834. This inspired with hopes of socceps another time, the Liscolles party laboured, immediately after their dehat, to secure a triumph when another oppor tunity presented itself. They began by working amour the smaller tradesmen, with whom, by dint of coaxing and expenditure, they made successful way. They attended very carefully to the registration courts, and if this bad boon all there would have been little foundation for complaint. But condo amongst them commenced a covert system with a view of commanding votes from workpeople. A number of small houses were bought up; in one instance the greater part of an entire street. These were let out to the workpeople employed by the pwchasers and to others directly or indirectly under their influence, who were placed upon the regitter as ten pound occupiers. By these measures the number on the register was brought up to the original mark, and the tory managing book some time before the death of William IV. was Wade to look very favourable to the success of the petty. When the election of 1837 came, it soon was evi dent that a very close contest must take place in Wakefield. All the tory preparations were well made. The town was divided into districts, and am nion radio semiarid tench. A ajatemof "treats" was erommenew4 emsaminT the shape of "evening "to bulk over political matters at the public whin the pipes and beer were paid for by the seselltdie numbers of the party. This went on to a eery great extent, but it is difficult at this distance of doe to fix the precise particulars, because at the tame pried a most exciting contest was going forward for the West Riding, and it is difficult to guard spinet up the details of two contests the scene and which were the same. On this occasio n, a of , it is certain that most of the practices et the worst electioneering system were resorted to. There were charges of direct bribery alleged against the Lascelles party at the time. One man went to the hustings to vote for (Woken with money in his hand, which he publicly declared to have been given him to poll for the other side. In the heat of the excitement occasioned b the contest the story was believed, and some thoughts were entertained of founding upon that and of m. circumstances a petition to the House of Commons, complaining of the return. This, how ever, was sever done, road now that the circumstances are better understood, the particular allegation of bribery re'erred to, is considered toga a doubtful character, and the charge originally upon it is OUR REPRESENTATIVE SYSTEM very genially withdrawn. The election of Mr. Lasoellee was secured upon WAKEFIELD. this occasion by a majority of 26—the numbers Although Wakefield is a new borough, enfran• being for Lamella 307, (Julien 281.

Upon this, " Mr. Cockburn was Marlin state that considering what the deoisioas of the committee had been, he did not feel himself justified in doing anything more. He should witMraw ea the part of Mr. Houldsworth, and leave the matter in the hands of the committee." A number of votes were then "true J, sad Mr. Lamella; being placed in a medority, was &Awed ones more the sitting asember for the town et Wakefield. The feeling of the liberals, and, indeed, of the whole Sewn, upon this subject was extremely strong. It was not believed that Mr. Holdsworth ever had had Reties that the office was conferred on him, and it woo ordain' that he had never accepted it, nor dons any erne digit sot in respect of it. The town, with almost sae mmseat, refused to recognise Mr. Laming se tie stembr. No petitions were sent to him for promillaliss, and any local bashing in which they Imes seasamed they entrusted to some other member el the Howse of Commons. When Sir Robert Peel pas his measure for corn law repeal, Mr. II voted in its :favour ; and at a sidmerpment period, when the whip came into power, he smiled altogether from the tory pity, and accepted office with the present government. It might have bees expected that the liberals of Wak efi eld would, under these circumstances, have extended him a Meetly hand. Many of them say they would have dose en had Mr. Lamella stood in the same • in which he was placed in 1837, n that of a representative returned by a m ajority. But, situated as he war, they would have nothing to say to him. As for his own party, there was deep wrath in Wakefield when they head of their member's secession from the tory ranks. His sycophants soon became his calumniators. They threw down their idol and trampled it in the dust, and per haps at the present time no man is so bitterly re viled by the toile' of this town as he whom they so warmly supported through the two fiercely-oontested elections of 1837 and 1841. With the last general election it became necessary to select anew represenmtive. A year or two previously a requisition had been got up to Mr. Oaskell which had received the signatures of the majority of the electors. That gentleman, in reply, had expressed his desire to remain if possible in the quietude of private life, although be said he was willing, if the treo trade cause in Wakefield depended on it, to make say sacrifice to fight the battle. Free trade having at this tame been carried, there was no pretence for again inviting Mr. OaskelL Several candidates pre sented themselves—some more and some less liberal in their views : one of them, a gentleman of the long robe, so happily situated as to be able to assure the electors " that opinions were not so strongly fixed but that he could modify and adapt them to those of his constituents." Of course this wee a gentleman who was not at all suited for Wskefi He was dismissal summarily. Oae or two men of 'some what sounder views appeared; amongst others Mr. Locke and Sir E. N. Buxton. But there was a difficulty with all the candidates. Sir Edward North Burton, who suited the electors admirably on every other point, would not com promise his opinions upon the subject of education. A public meeting took place at which this gentle man was to state his views. At the conclusion of his speech he said, somewhat unguardedly, that he would be content to abide by the decision of that evening. The room was crowded with Baines-ins ; they took Sir Edward at his word ; negatived a motion that he wee a fit and proper person to represent them in par liament, and threw away the chance of returning a representative of whom any constituency in England might well be proud. Seeing the divided state of the liberals, some of the conservative body in Wakefield put forward a Mr. Sanders, a resident corn merchant, a gentleman whose views are not very decided, and who consequently was able to obtain support from men of venous sides. Several of the party who had supported Sir Edward Buxton gave in their adhesion to this gentleman ; others remained neater. The section who had opposed Sir Edward, feeling it necessary to do something to support their oppo sition, brought down from London Mr. 0 . W. Alexander, the well known bill-broker. Mr. Alexander's friends claim that they had secured for him upon their cantle nearly 350 promises, which ought M have been a majority. It turned out, however, that only 258 of these could be brought to poll. Mr. Sanders' friends carried him election by • minority of no less than 134 ; the votes being 392 to 258. We regret to say that on the night previous to his return there was a great amount of public lees, treating on the part of this gentleman's friends, and that bills were run up on his account to a very large extent. Nearly 3,0001., it is said, was required to defray the expenses of his election. In what way it could have gone seems marvellous. Mr. Alexander, who is a teetotaller, spent nothing in drink, and not more than a few hundred pounds in banner., music, agency expenses, and in other ways. That he should have spent even this, however, proves that Wakefield has fallen into bad habits, upon which it is high time that there should be a check. Mr. Sanders, since be bas been in parliament, has given several votes which have been highly satisfac tory to the liberal portion of the constituency, ape sially a recent one spinet the navigation law& It willbe a curious circumstance should tones of Wakefield by abandoned by their present member as they were by the last, and such is the feeling of the day in Maur of a generous FAH' policy, that this is by no mimes imposeible. But may be the future fate of Wakefield, ie b to be hoped that a large and intelligent agarikeeney of this sort will unite, without reference to party, to put an end to every bad electiocenrieg practice, and to secure the free and fair snifter= of political opinion. There might to be a Freedom of Election Society established forthwith in Wakefield, with a view to check, by every moral and law ful means, the corrupt and debasing practices upon occasion of elections. There are few towns where such a society might be organised with better effect. As the place of election for the largest coned= the empire, it is peculiarly right that W should est a good example. It hie seem and suffered enough under the system to enable it to bring its ex perience to beer arm it with practical effect; and there are enough honest is of every party in the town to take the pla n is hand and - wort it videreislY• Demme, Aram 21.

This motion, to dissolve an injunction granted by the Vice-Chancellor of England, to prevent the sale of geode deposited l-y the plaintiff with the defendant, was argued on Friday. The plaintiff is • maned woman. with separate estate independent of her husband, and having a country and town residence. The defendant is a pawnbroker in Brewer-street, Golden square. Mrs. Fitch being in want of money in 1846-6, applied to the defendant for advances on deposits of her jewels, plate, and other property. Several large sums were accordingly advanced te her at different times. The advances altogether amounted to 1,3851., and the goods deposited by her were estimated by her to be worts 3,0001. They were divided into nice parcels, for the purpose of redemption at her convenience. Upon each deposit a ticket called • duplicate was given to her. spectfying on one side the articles deposited and the amount thereon :advanced, signed by the de fendant, and on the other side wee written a me morandum to the effect that the plaintiff was to pry in terest at the rate of 3d. per pound sterling per month, and if she should not pay such interest or redeem the goods at the expiration of one year the defendant might have them s dd, and, War pas ir.g himself the principal and interest and the expenses of sale out of the proceeds, par over the surplus t i the plaintiff or her agent if demanded within three years. The interest was paid upon all the deposits by the plaintiff until the end 011846. In November, 1848, the defendant sent letters and gave other notices to her that " unless she paid the interest tees due he would have the goods sold by sue- Son in Deeember,lB43." Receiving no communication from the plaintiff, either in consequence of her neglect or of the defendant's communication being sent to one of her resi dences when she was at the other, the defendant had a cata logue of the goods printed, describing them in the most laudatory style, and advertising that they were to be sold on the days therein named, without reserve, by Mr. Robins, of Coyest garden Puna'. The delivery of this catalogue around the plaintiff. She applied to the defendant to stop the sale, and on his refusal the bill was tiled in name of the plaintiff by her next friend. The bill num tinted the legality of the transaction on behalf of the defen dant, and prayed an injunction to stop the sale of the goods. The Vice.Cbancellor upon the usual ex pane application, issued the injunction, which was served on the defendant and I auctioneer on the morning of the sale, after some lots were knocked down. A motion to discharge that injunction was made before the Lord Chancellor, and his lordship granted the application on the ground of the omission on the plain tiff 's bill of the specill agreement contained in the memo randum endorsed on the duplicates, and also because the planitiff in her affidavit stated that she never consented in any terms te the male of her jewels, &c. The plaintiff 'a bill wee then amended by Inserting therein the said agreement, and an application supported by a new affidavit of the plain tiff stating that she had on the ftrmer occasion forgotten the agreement was ,made to the Vies-Chancellor to restore the injunction, which his Honour did, and added his reasons to the effect that the transaction was of a pawn broking nature, and was illegal within the pawnbroking act, 39 &40 Geo. 111., esp. 99. This journal contained reports of what passed on the three several evasions, bat the im portance of the case is the public, In cometrence of the Lord Chancellor's decision on the present wanton, required a re statement of the clreumstsnors.

They were still bound by the enactments of the pawnbrokers' acts in advisees of all sums below 101. at a time, but as to loans above 101., they were on the same condition as other money lenders. Before the repeal of the usury law, pawn broken, like all others, were limited to 6 per cent. interest on all sums above 101.
