LRONARWS, SHORRDITCH. 11.10TION FOR UPPIIK AND LIMIER CHURCIIIVAIDEN. La►t Tuesday, puisuatit to annual custom. a very tumerous meeting of the Vestrymen of this parish took place in the Parish Church, for the purpose of electing Parochial Officers for the ensuing year. It may be recollected that, in consequestee of the de tection of the Junior. Warden, in a transaction, the de velopment of which disqualified bins from further pre. tensions to parochial honours, both wardenships became vacant; and a• Mr. George Pearce aas last year the Junior Warden's Unsuccessful opponent, although re spectably supported, and as the liberty is which Ms. Pearce resides.placed it out of his power to be a candi date for the junior warden hip, his triends, atter several meetings, came to the resolotiosi of putting him in nitto minition for Senior Warders, in the expuetation that no person MOWS oppose bis election. About eleven o'clock Mr. WiLsors, Senior Church• vrrirdee, took the . Chair.

Mr. LINDSAY said he very much regretted the absence of a friend, who bad promised to put a candidate in nomination for the highest honours the parii k h bad it in tiieir power to give. He would offer for the considera tion of the Vestry Mr. George Pearce as a prrson well iqualsieJ to discharge the duties of the office. It was aersecessary for him to dilate upon that Gentlentatee tuailtiet ; they were too well known in th e parish.— This being seconded. Mr. BzwLav observed, that it was a post of honour, and ought not to be given but to men of the highest • character cud inflexible integrity. He exhorted the Vestry not to be led astray by the statements of Mr. Lindsay, as he thought there were many persons more fit for the situation than Mr. Pearce. is support of which he instanced a transaction in which Mr. Pearce mimeses sally put the parish to 1111 eapeaditoro of lila, for painting the workhouse. tif.

In pursuance of an understanding on Tuesday, that the meeting of the Vestry would be resumed yesterday, for the purpose of proceeding to a ballot as to the con firmation of the election of the various parochial officers, a considerable number of the inhabitants attended the Vestry. Mr. HuNr rose and protested against the Meeting doing any act in the character of a Vestry. as they had not any authority whatever to review the proceedings of the previous 'day. The officers nominated by him (Mr. Hunt) and bis friends having been duly elected, 1 without any formal adjournment of the Vestry, it was Ito all intents and purposes functars ea. Mi. Hunt then pointed to a large number of the inhabitants who were present, and prepared to support, by their votes, the decision of the former day, as the best evidence that he did not oppose the proceeding to the ballot from any apprehension of the result ; but as every act done now' would be illegal, he should take no further part in the proceedings, except to declare. that it the ballot were persisted in, it would invalidate the rates; and he, pledged himself, in that case, to resist the payment of every rate, in future. this announcement on the-part of MI. Hunt cleated a str .og sensatiim; and on appealing to Mr. Melmott, the Vestry Clerk, he admitted that Mr. Hunt was cos. :ea in saying that no resolution for an adj urnineitibad been cart ied on the day pointed out by the Act of Pair lianient ler the election of officers. but wearied to think .b at there was such an understanding at the time (on Tuesday) as might justify this course of proceeding. Mr. Hoar said, that no circumstances--ho implied understanding—could' justify an illegal act ; and as there had be, n no lot mat adjournment, the present meeting had no power to proceed to business. In this dilemma it *as agreed beta een the forties that they should mutually withdraw the demand for the ballot, and that the whole of the officers dee•ed on the preceding day should be confirmed in their teepee. live offices. The names of the Gentlemen whose appointments were carried by show of hands on Tuesday. stele then called over, and they were declared duly elected ; and the struggle has albs terminated in the rejection of all the of proposed by the old is acistucratical." party, and the elecientof every one of shoes put forward on the popular side. PARISHES OF ST.• GILES IN THE FIELDS. AND . . • ST. GEOROK . BLOWISBUSY. Tuesday. at two o'clock, as we stated yesterday, the polling for the election of Chu chwardens comm. need; after the adjustment of several ptelinsinaties, and the hour of finally closing the poll having been determined upon to be twelve o'clOck at night. As 'tight appt °ached the excitement iocreased, and the crowds of people in 'the neighbourhood of S . Giles's Church, in which the votes were taken, were et times immense. The polliug was kept up with much spin till the last. About eleven o'clock an attempt was made by the limo& of the can didates to have the polling adjourned till sestet day ; but the Chan man decided that he should abide by what bad been agreed upon at the out.et ttlierefore the appli eation foil. wed, or rather.preceded, the fate of those on whose behalf it was made. At twelve o'clock the books of'the poll clerks were east up, and the number:by the Chairman declared to be, For Ali. lingers . 390 For Mr. Whitten% . 2711 Mr. Waktry . 541 Mr. Thatcher 4 Mr. Itobitrons . $9O Mr. Waring . 1 'Messrs. Rogers and Wasley were therefore declined to be duly elected Churchwardens for the ensuing year. The new of f icers then left the scene of election to the room of their Committee amidst the loudest cheers of their friends and a great concourse of the populace. Here they were poetised with the most enthusiastic greeting ; and after a degree of silence was obtained— Mr. Roams immediately rose and mounted a chair, for the purpose of renewing his pledges and returning thanks. Though jaded with the fatigues of the day, he said these was one feeling which overcame all, which.' was, the desire he felt of expressing his sentiments to' those around for the honour they had conferred upon' hint He felt gratified that so much public and inde pendent spirit had been evinced among those with whom I.a bad lived from hit youth. They had now emanci pated themselves from the chains and thraldom under which they bad been labouring, and had awoke tga .ease of the rights which every man, more especidfly an Engli , htnan, ought to possess. They had placed their upptessors ans:er their feet, where be trusted they would restaia—(Loud cheers.) He had pledged himself on a former occasion, that no means should be left marled to put down the Selrct Vestry, and those exertions should be exercised till ever* iota of pun lotion, robbery, plunder, and jobbing, was put an end to. ....11* trusted, louse a faabionable phrase, that l< Dew era bad arrived—that the parishioners. fOr the time to ems, would walk under tine influence of liberal prin ciples, in the abate Mao sip fee the last ail-andAthirty years, they had been subject to the influence Of slavish ones. They had felrthe consequences of elme•Vestries on a small and large scales Under.the chuechwareen ship of his colleague and himself, they would, he trusted. feel the benefits of the abolition of at least one close Vestry. The pledge he bad already given he held sacred in every respect, nor should it be forgotten by him till the parishioners bad the power of centtouling their own slain. bit. Wnitt.ev. like his friend and colleague, craved indulgence, on account of the great fatigue he had un dergone during the day, but as he had to express the feelings of truth, he thought he should not have much difficulty. Mr. Rogers had, at the conclusion of his speech, reiterated his,pledge. He (Mr. W.) was not one of those who would . say a thing before an election, sad forget it afterwards. His friends might rest *wired that no portion of his pledge on his public eonduct hereafter should be departed from—(Oreat cheering). He could speak mote freely here than in. that crowded, cramped, sad inconvenient' place eilotid for the purposes of voting. That porch WAS avian!l for a Man that loved liberty—to him it ap 'pared like a dark hole leading to the elect hole and corner system. He hoped no individual would be of; .knded at what he said. He appeared before them as a public man, and as such he would speak openly ;what he felt, and state the grounds upon which he was determined to act. They would find him then, in word and deed, a radical reformer. He would not mince matters,•but he would address all as he had done hit friends before, if his life depended upon it. As a radical reformer he had ever acted ; as such he had been successful, and in the gloriouscourse which he had thus begun he would continue as long as he should be supported by men like these by whom he was now surroonded, as long as be had any espec. union of achieving such triumphs as had now been, accomplished. If anything could be a source of se.' tisfaction to him, It was the election of himself jointly ai h inch a friend at .Jr. Rogers, irti the offices they were now to fill. He felt great pleasure in call ing him a friend, for he believed a more staunch man in the cause of Reform did not exist. It was to his ezer lions the triumph of this day was solely to attributed; he set the parish in motion, and but li his manly conduct, in all probability the result would have been different. He (Mr. W.) was not remarkable for using civil words to his opponents,. nor could he let the pre sent mofnent pass without alluding to the trickery, that had been resorted to on the present occasion, not only for the oleos. ed purpoie of defeating the triumph of this day, but for casting aver it a shadow which N ould render it more a matter of mourning than of joy. He alluded to an infamous placard that had been cir. calved without the name of the.accused or the accuser. No doubt could be entertained that he was the indivi dual to 'whom it was intended to apply. lie had. gone to the Vestry Wirral that morning to meet any p , rsou who might think proper to come forward and accuse him of a dishonoerahle act ; no such person hail made his appearance. Why? Because the coward who had posted the placard knew it was a - base calumny, btought forward for the .vilest i f purposes, and irrtende I to lead so such' a Conde ion as would be favourable to the exigence of a most infamous system, .vellic:, had too long been tolerated in that parish. P Iron. capable of.such conduct, were it not f ir the terrors of the strong arm of the law, would commit a a r-sina ;ion. Such measures were only to he tegarded with consummate contempt. lie defied the breath of calumny to taint. him in any respect. Toe example of this day, he trusted, would be followed throughout England,. and measures taken to abolish all such cor rupt systen s. 'lse largest rivers did not Into; the smallest Amami, but the smallest streams were the 111C11.1, irons which the largest rive, s origin .ted. It t! e purple would but reform themselver, no G reel nmert or power cluld resist that which they demanded. Ou that Jay the parishes of St. Giles's in the FieWs and St . Ortotge's, Bloomsbury, had accomplished a triumph of yrinciple almost unequalled. Who. could doubt this when no less than five hundred and sixty-one Gentlemen had conic forward and supported • him cm public grounds, to whom he had never spoken—where he had never even 'cep—for the purpose of placing him there to destroy a system which had been the disgrace of the parishioners, and in many instances their ruin? Ii had been said by his opponents that he had come fur ward horn -ambitious motives, but the fact was, that he had been dragged forward. Let his opponents, how ever, indulge in their statement, because, if. ambition consisted in an anxiety to protect the porshioners and ensure their good opinion, he should never ohj •ct, but feel proud of the appellation. N r doubt the Select Vestry would find that the parishioners, in electing Mr. Rogers and himself, bad iwroduced a tn ace of 'Tartars among them. The newly-elected Churchwardens and their friends lseparated about half-past one o'clock yesterday mora ing, amidst the warmest congratulai.ns. A letter from Lexington. in Kentucky. gives the fol. lowing account of the murder of the Editor of the Kentucky Gazette: Thomas It. Denning, Req. Editor of the Kentucky Gaggle. was. en the day before yesterday, inhumanly murdered in his own office. by. Charles Wicklifh, a sun of Robert Wickliffe, c: this place.— The circumstances are these—A publication appeared in the Re porter, signed " C.oriolanus," which was extremely vituperative and abusive hu:its character; the writer assailed the character of some individtials without naming them, in the most virulent man ner, but made the allusions so pointed that they could not be mis taken. A publication appeared in the lesstuelry Gatebe, addressed I to" Coriolanus," in which the writer treated with merited seve rity the author of " Coriolanus," and concluded by challenging him to come out under his own signature, and " Dentatus" would do the same. Young Wickliffe, after this publication made its appearance in the casette. calle d on the Editor to give up the author of " Dentate.." Mr. Denning informed him that no one except the Author of " Coriolanus" had a right to make such a demand. Wickliffe then avowed himself as the Author of " Co riolanus." Mr. Denning told him to remain in his office, and be would go out and look for the author of " Dentatus ;" after being absent some time, be returned and informed Mr. Wickliffe that he had not been able to find the author, but that by eight o'clock the nest morning be should be given up, and when he (Wickliffe) learned his name. be would be one of the last men he would wish: to bear from, and that . be thought the piece, of which he hid avowed himself the author, was but little credit to him, upon which Mr. Wickliffe called him a 4—d rascal. and Mr. Bruning raised a small stick, which was the only weapon of defence be had; Wickliffe wrested the stick out of his band. Bruning retreated towards the door, and while -retreating, Wickliffe 'deliberately pulled a pistol from his bosom and:shot Swain thsoogh the body.- The wound was useful, and hs irspiret twestphwr. hoensher re.* cavity it, in great agony. Before his death, Wickli ff e was arrested and taken before two Justices, and ISM to hap is a recopisanco of 6000 dollars, foe shooting with II intemii kW. After Mr. Berming's death, a warrant was issued whist 111 r. Wickliffe' for the crime of murder, but he has mode his sinapa"
