FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 21, 1860 IiZPRZIMNPAPION OP EXETER. When Mr. Diyett—now Home months ago— intimated his intention shortly to vacate the seat which, XS M.P. for Eact...r, he has occupied fur many year past a beyond 1111110.1 were quoted as pr o bable can did a t es f or the vacancy. Sir John T. B. Duckworth, Bart. (who at one tune sat for Biscay), Mr. notches Dyke Arland, and &r John Bovrring, Knight, were atuongat those the most fre quently mentioned at first ; but none of these gentlemen made any sign indicative of an intention on their parts to seek the honour. After a tune, however, Mr. Alfred Sey mour, the younger brother of Mr. Denby Seymour, M.P. for Poole, was introduced to the city by Mr. Thome Lati mer as a candidate on the liberal interest. Shortly after this ifSieirMTWltitwortl; Porter, of Win. WO, we. named by some of the consertmives ea a candidate cm that interest. Major Porter also put forth an address, ad meetly he net a body of the conservative electors at the New Lambe lan, seal us receiving a requisition signed by some SOU and odd electors, gave them • vies trice mpg, @Aloe of his political sentiments, and in his speech he made 'miry criticisms on Mr. Seymour, and the fact of his be coming a candidate. In consequence of this, and doubtless with the natural desire to keep himself and his claims be fore the conatitueucy, Mr. Seymour on Wedneaday night met • number of the electors at the Athenmum. The hall of the Athenaeum MAY well filled, and the chair was taken by Mr. W. Brock. ._ _ The CHAIRMAN said he bad very greatplessure in nieutini them of the present occasion. He had • second time to in traduce to them Mr. Alfred Seymour, who be believed tor an earnest reformer, and a uses on whom they could rely. It bad been said that Mr. Seymour was a stranger, not • Devonshire man. He did not wieldy, that doctrine, and did not know where it Lame from. lin opinion was that they should ge the best man th e y ro nid t o b e th e i r repre sentative, ind e pendent of any consideratiow as le Ids brag • native or • stranger. (Dr. Rooktn—Yee, as long as he is orthodox.) He believed Mr. Seymour's views on politied questions generally were such as th e great body uf the liberal electors of the city approved, especially as to reform, and as to the reduction of public expenditure. (Cheers.) He would at once call upon Mr. Seymour to address the meeting. Mr. SILIMOCH on rising was received with much applause. He said—When I presented myself to you for the int time some eight or nine months since I was then a stranger nearly to all of you. I then placed myself and my political opinions before you, that you might consider the same, and see if they were such as you could approve. Sire then you have had time to consider me opinions, and to de cide whether or not they are such as you approve. Sire then Major Porter has met some of the electors, and made a speech in which he has alluded to my name in • tearer cannot but think discourteous, and put forward what he considers claims why he should be preferred to me. I there fore thought I ferule, like to meet you to see whether or not yea approved of me and my opinions, and also to see what ix the difference between Major Porter and me. I believe the opinions I hold to be those of the great body of the liberal electors of this city. l mime before you as a man perfectly independent of party, and who by his position sad cocuoistoner in life is Third altogether above staking influence or power for the sake of the emoluments, and as ose who is desirous of being of some use to his fellow-men, to mike himself useful, a id leave some track on the sands of time. Major Porter has spoken of in. ambition, as if in presenting myself to the electors of this city, and desiring to reps eaeut them in parliament, I had been improperly ambition,. I do not think you agree with him. (No, nu.) I am not ashamed to confess that 1 am ambitious— that I am ambitions to serve you and my country. That I consider a proper ambition. (Cheers.) But in referring to Major Porter's inquiries ea to who I am and what I am, it is with the last that you are most concerned. I am • sincere and honest reformer, and have been so all my life.

I do not wish to speak of Major Porter in any but terms of respect. He is t no doubt, a good officer and • worthy gentleman ; but he is uot, I fear, • logician, for he says he is a liberal, because he is a conservative, and, that all conservatives are liberals.

Oa the question of reform, Major Porter and all the conser vatives are inoonsistest. They say they approve of reform, and yet they opposed Lord John /tursell's bill in the last series. Theconaervatives were DOW led by Lord Derby, • niost able man, and certainly the moat eloquent man in the House of Peers, or in the country. He who was now the leader if the try party bad held different views for merly, had taken au active part is the miming at the Reform Bill, sod had contributed to many other measures of pro -rasa, but had afterwards opp os ed f ree t ra d e .

Ido Out think any reform bill can be satis factory that dues not deal with the retten torougha. The advances of trade and other circumstances have inetered many places that were years ago mere villages to important towns, and t think the members now returned for rot*n or pocket boroughs should be appropriated to these places.

(Hear, hear.) The chairman wee quite right in *eying I would give attention to the =bier of taxation and the income tax. I am against the increase of taxation, but it is difficult to say how it can be decreased. No doubt there is at present a lavish ex• waiter* of public money requiring attention and In veitigation.

The full advantages of this course wens not at first apparent, but they would meet certainly be dowel as the system of free trade was more fully carried into effect. Major Porter did not tell the meeting, but what wee nevertheless the feet, that the roar tax was put on by the barna, by Sir R. Peel, in 11142. I do not dispute that it has been kept on by the whip, nor ma I say I see how it can be taken off.

(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then gave "The Lord Lieutenant of the County, the Duke el Marlborough." The toast TOW warmly responded to. The Duke of Mammononon, in acknowledging the beat, said the mighty , volunteer movement originated in • strong desire among Englishmen to defend their hearths and homes against foreign aggression, and he must pay to the University of Oxford the tribute of having beeu among the first to respond to the appeal which was made in its favour. In consequence of the promptitude which the University evinced in the matter its corps held the high position of being the 7th in the kingdom. The feeling thus exhibited had been called forth by • vital, he might say an appalling, necessity. While we wished to be on the best terms with our neighbours, we were still detemiined that the groat hi. teresta which Providence bad committed to our charge should not be endangered by any foe, and that the influence which we legitimately exercised through. out the world, by means of our free institutions, should not be tarnished or impaired by foreign aggression. (Hear.) It was useless to blind their eyes to a great fact.

(Hear.) That system was now rearing its heed over Europe ; and it was in order that we night be on our guard against it and the machinations to which it would lead that the volunteer movement had taken place in this country. He hoped and believed that mighty movement would be persevered in, so that England could always say, "We are prepared, and touch us who dare." (Cheers.) "The Health of the High Sheriff of Oxford" was next drank. The CHAIRMAN hes t in appropriate terms, proposed "Tie Bishop of Oxford. The toast was received with rapturous cheenug. The Bishop of OXFORD said—l thank you, sir, very heartily, for the way in which you Lave been pleased to propose the toast to this great company, and also the guests around you for the cordiality with which they have accepted it.

A NOVEL CEREMONY. On Tuesday morning, an interesting and, in this country, a novel ceremony took plane at St. Margaret's Roman Catholic Convent, Greenhill Gardens, in the inves titure of Major William Fletcher Gordon, of the East Indian army, with the Order of St. Gregory the Great, transmitted from Rome by Pope Pius IX., as a reward for his bravery in the field, and for the assistance generally afforded by him to the Christian community during the late Indian rebellion. Major Gordon served on the staff of Sir Hugh Rase through . oat the Persian campaign, as well as during ttret dian mutiny. The ceremony commenced at ten o'clock is the morning, when a large assemblage of ladies and gentlemen were present in the convent chapel by epeeist invitation. ROM having been said, the bishop deli vered au eloquent address, in which he described the origin of Christian chivalry, its applipoee in former times, and the uses it still serves. The maiden sword" of Major Gordon was then blessed by the bishop, who, in handing it. to him, exhorted him to carry it faithfully for his Queen and country, and never to use it in the cause of injustice. A special office for the occasion having been read, the cere mony of investing Major Gordon with the order of St. Gre gory then took place. The gallant major was manna nied on the occasion by two esquires—A. Smith Sligo, Eso., of Insievar, and another gentleman, a relative of the major, whose same we did not learn. They were all drained in full Highland costume. Two young ladies carried silver salvers, on which were placed the insignia of the order. The party kneeling at the altar, Bishop Gillis formally in- vested the major with the order, the insignia of which con sists of a cross and ribend, which were fastened on the major's breast by the bishop himself. rather Corry, of the Society ofJenes, read the Latin rescript of the Pope, a translation of which was afterwards read by Bishop Gillis. The bishop was assisted on the occasion by the Rev. Mr. O'Donnell, chaplain of the convent ; Rev. Mr. D'Arry, Portobello; Rev. Mr. Gaseoigne, Edinburgh ; and the Rev. Mears. Mahal and Corry, S.J., Edinburgh. The ceremony lasted about an hour and a half, and excited the utmost interest among those who were present.

The fine ship Leguan, of Glasgow Buchanan master, left the West Indies in the early part of August, with •carga of rum, sugar, and molasses. dhe was about 800 tons burthen, and was bound for Greenock. On Wed nesday last she was overtaken by the late fearful gale off the west omit of Ireland, and bad to ran before it, the wind at best blowing a hurricane. She passed Achill Head, and ran under l.'lare Island at ten o'clock on Thursday night, when the captain let go both anchors. After a struggle of some hours she dragged both anchor and drifted towards the shore of Lecanvy. When within half a mile of the shore, one chain snapped, and, to hold by the remaining anchor, the captain cut away his three masts, which so far eased the strain that she rode out the pie on a single anchor. On Saturday morning, about ten o'clock, when the captain had left the ship for Westport to purchase a new anchor and chain, the mate rushed from the cabin forward to where the pilots who had conic on board were, shouting that the ship was on fire, but he was laughed at, as there was no reason why she should be, and as the pilots had been just before in the cable. As, however, he persisted in saying she was on fire, the pilots went aft, and found smoke ascending from the companion. The main hatches were than raised by the ship s carpeater, and a dense smoke ascended from the hold, showing the presence of fire below. the carpenter then said the ship was on fire, and that the sooner they sit quitted the ship the better. The crew im mediately west forward and got one of their men who was ill in his hammock, threw their things into the boats, and in their haste nearly swamped them getting in. They rowed away for Westport. Not the least attempt was made by the crew to erne{ the progress of the games —not a bucket of water was raised or thrown into the hold. In a short time after the departure of the crew the flames shot up with fearful fury, and the after part was soon a sheet of dame. It was a grand though a tearful spectacle, as the casks of rum burst, to see the flames ascend, and at several mike distance the firecould be seen. She burned all day with fearful fury, and at two o'clock on Sunday morning she had burned to the water's edge. There is no allegation that the file could have arisen from spontaneous combnetion, and ay explanation is offered by the Orem, who are said to have bees on bad terms with the captain. It is stated that there has been an application to the Board of Tiede to order a sworn iogniry. As soon as the vessel was on fire, and had no chance of being saved, if the chain bad been run out she would in half en hour have ran on shore, and something might have been saved, perhaps part of the cargo • but she was left at bra wscher where ao:/ could tie done to are any part of the property.—Li,:; ' Mercury. A WOILAN SATIN iv Dooa.—A moat painful and shocking discovery was made on Friday last at Moril, in thu =lloif Moy. Oa the evening of that day, whilst Mr. vray, farmer, was engaged in cettmg • field of barley, one of his doge aprosehed, carrying something in his mouth whieh • Wacted his master's attentko. At tint sight it apeared to be a rat, but on examination it tumid out to be - the mire of the left hand of a human being. Information of this horrible discovery bevies bun made to the district constable, he procured animism, and coin mooed a minute search of the plantation adjoin lag the field of barley. After searehteg about for some time the party came upon the clothes of • female, which were lying about six yards from the toll road. These were identified as belonging to • hawker woman who pared under the name of Tinker Mary, and who was in the habit of travelling the country with needles and pins and small wares. Shocking to relate, nothing of the body remained with the exception of a few bones, and the oily way of accounting for the disappearance of the body is by supposing that it was eaten upby dop. It ep !lelfrom further inquiries that the deceased bad been in two or three weeks preeteuidy, where she had made some trifling purchases. She wee much addicted to drink, and at the time she was last seen was the worse of liquor. The poor women, in the course of her wanderings, seems to have mitered the wood for the purpose of resting herself, and, fa ll ing asleep, met her death by exposure to the cold. The case is undergoing investigative by the aatltorialsa--lasermis Advertiser. NEWCASTLE PRIVILEGZSAND THE FRENCH TREATY. At a meeting of the Gateshead Town Council on Wednesday, • The Mayne, seeing present both the gentlemen who represent the corporation at the Tyne commission, took the opportunity of asking them a question ou a subject on which he said the public felt deeply interested. He had observed in the papers that a letter from the French Consul --a very remarkable one too—was read at the last meeting of the Town Council of Newcastle, and he hail seen that it was referred to • committee to answer. He had seen further that the Tyne commission had appointed • committee to meat that of the council. A oonsitkrahle tine had elapsed since the letter was first published, aad he desired to know whether any answer had yet been given to it or not. Mr. Alderman HODGSON, ea a member of the Fineries Conunittee of the River Commission, begged to say that there had been no answer given to the letter at all • sad the matter had not even been considered by the joint com mittees. A more foolish letter, perhaps, was never written, and he dared say the answer would be very speedily given to it. The Maros said he had been frequently spoken to on the matter. lie did not see that there ought to be the slightest anxiety whatever in the case; because all gentlemen would recollect that when the French treaty was before parliament, upon all points on which any alteration of the law wee re quired, that alteration was made, and everybody knew that • clause in the treaty which was contrary to act of parlia ment was of no value whatever. —Newessik Chronic*.
