It w as proved that at a meeting' of the electors, previous to an electron. the Mayor had Oropesteditiat they should ask tso,ooo l . for their votes. The House hadiant, in any case, iscted;to ... tlisfratichiling , a' Bor ou gh, - on such eel dome as weirs: before it. He thought'` at 'least the witneoas; W .

They might 'call receiving bribes base a ii sordid, tint he .would go one step further, and stigmatise the 'corrupters by whom the bribes were giien-4HeAr, hear). Lord HOWICK-"said, that under all the circum stances 0-1 the case, he did not consider the Borough of tail' Retford -as either degraded or debased. There' was bribery in other cases—not by money, perhaps, but by 'patronage, to which lie would not further allude. This House was- chargeable with the guilt which was attached to peesonceut.of doors. If he thought the piesentf-4a 'Biil'of Pains and Penalties he would vote against ii ; but the qu. stion here to decide was, were the electoss of the. B rough fit to be trusted with the exer cise of the elective franchise? He would support the present Bill in its present shape, and if any alterations were proposed, as lie understood was intended, he would certainly feel it his duty to vote against it. It any change wire to talienieee, let it be at all events for thetetter; Mr. Alderman WAITHMAN said, he had read the whole evidence with the greatest attention, and _was astinialred how the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Bankes) had come to his conclusion, that the evidence was not suf ficient to justify the disfranchisement of the Borough. The* . llon. Gent. had quarrelled with the lists in. which the accounts uf'the bribery were kept. He (Alderman Waithman) lad examined the lists, and tie could wish the public accounts were so well kept; he had never peen any mercantile accounts more clearly stated; and he Ahoeeht clearer evidence Was. never-given.' He could noreveli now dare to use the words - of Lord Camden,- if 'he had not his authority, in condemning: the corrupt state of the representation in his-time. -He thougiWthe liberty of - the country could, only stand oh such an extension of the elective "franchise as would cause the tepresentatiOn .to .rest on the property and intellect of the tountrj. ) Whattould be thought, when they:loo-IW, st na-labo were never known. to lay out a ge i rnei ivtlitiiitii:ivieW of 'getting.. two and twenty shillings for it, glvittg 4,000 i. tor a seat in that Heise?
