This forenoon we received Lisbon Papers to the 21st ult. The C.rtulte of the 16. h ult. contains a long article against the absurd articles inserted in some foreign Journals, under the head of Private Correspon dence from Spain, Portugal, and other countries. The writer particularly refutes, as false in every respect, an article in the Journal des Debate of 22d Aptil, dated Lisboa, sth of the same month. By the arrival of a Lisbon mail, we have received accounts from Rio de Janeiro to the 16th inst. They state that the Emperor and Empress of BRAZIL were to leave Bahia on the 21st of March.

At twelve o'clock, the time appointed for the com mencement of business the Guildhall was opened, and in an instant every place was occupied with a dense, mass of persons, and a scene of uproar and cnnfusion ensued which bases desctiption. The galleries were occupied by elegantly dressed Ladies, who displayed the popular colours of the Candidates. The deep blue of Mr. Alderman Wond appeared to preponderate. At one o'clock, the Lord Mayor, Secondary, and Court of Aldermen, entered the Hall, and upon his Lordship appearing upon the hustings, he was received with immense cheering. Mr. Alderman Wood then made his bow, and was followed by Mr. Alderman Waithman, Mr. Alderman Thompson, and Mr. Alderman Wood. The candidates were received with every demonstration of applause. The precept, the writ, and usual forms being gone through by the Secondary, the Lord Mayo' and Sheriffs severally addressed the Livery upon the object of their assembling, and the respective Candid rtes were putting in nomination when our Paper was going to press. Die Loan MAYOR addressed the Livery at conside rable length, and with much animation ; and stated the principles upon which he came forward to receive their suffrages were perfectly constitutional, and at the same time he had no bias or attachment to any party n!prz soever. His Lordship was received with great cheering. Mr. Alderman Garratt was put in nomination, as were Aldermen Thompson, Wood, Waldman, and Mr. Ward. Mr. Alderman Garrett did not appear on tie hustings. WESTMINSTER ELECTION—THIS DAY. This day being appointed by the High Bailiff of Westminster for the purpose of returning two Members to serve in Parliament for that City, the neighbourhisid of Covent-Garden became more than usually animated. At an early hour a vast concourse of people was seen flocking to witness this interesting scene ; and by eleven o'clock, the hour appointed in the hand-bills when Sir Francis Burdett and, Mr. Hobhouse would appear on the Hustings, the whole of the space on the east of St. Paul's Church, between Richardson's Hotel on the north, and the houses on the south side of the,Square, presented one dense mass of people; who, on the whole, behaved themselves in an orderly manner. At half-past eleven the two Candidates, accompanied by Mr. Morris, the High Bailiff, the Select Committee, and other of their friends, proceeded from the Rainbow coffee house, to the Vestry room of St. Paul's Church, and a few minutes before twelve they appeared on the hustings, amidst the immense cheering of the assembled populace. The assistant to the High Bailiff having read the writ addressed to him for the returning of two Burgesses to serve in Parliament, also the Act against bribery and corruption, Mr. LINDON stepped forward, and, having made some high eulogiums on the conduct of Sir F. Burdett, briefly nominated him as a proper person still to repre sent the City of Westminster, a nomination which was seconded by Ma. Pun sa. Mr. Dc Veer, in a short speech, nominated Mr. Hobhouse, and was seconded by Mr. Wilson. As there was no opposition, nor indeed any expected, the High Bailiff declared, after a show of hands, that Sir Francis Burdett, Ban. and John Cam Hobhouse, Esq. were doily elected. Silence having been in some degree obtained, Sir F. BURDETT came to the front of the hustings, and re turned thanks for the high situation in which they had again placed him. • He congratulated them on the disappearance of the corruption which had so often reared its head on former occasions, and professed that his whole attention would be applied to serve them to the best of his power, and particularly to obtain a thorough reform in the Commons H• : wse of I. 3 .irliament. He congratulated the people upon the likely ret irn of that gallant advocate of reform, Sir Robert Wilson, for Southwatk. The I-lon. Baronet concluded by again returning his thanks to his constituents, when he retired and made way for Mr. Hosuousa, who, in a bi ief speech, returned his thanks, and observed, that in returning Sir F. Burdett they had done honour to themselves; he adverted to the state the electors had found him in on a former occasion, when he wai brought forward under much disadvan tage, but by the unanimous suffrages of the people, he now stood on a prominent altitude. He professed to f ;How in the steps of his colleague. in advocating a re form in the abuses in Parliament and the Borough mongering System, and concluded by saying, that where a free representation of the people was admitted, they were sure to gain the victory. The Hum flamer made a short speech, which was inaudible where we stood, and the Members and their friends retired front the hustings at a quarter before one o'clock, when the multitude be gan to disperse, though a few remained to indulge in the old sport of pelting each other with cabbages and such vegetables as were in their way. SOUTHWARK ELECTION-THIS DAY. This ancient Borough still continues to manifest all the pomp and circumstance of a contested election.— Fro►n an early hour the streets in the vicinity of the hustings were, if possible, more densely crowded, and exhibited a greater degree of bustle, than on any.of the former drys. Flags were flying, placards exhibiting, and carriages driving in all directions. A hope still animates Mr. POLHILL that he will be one of the. elect," and though the numbers last night, it was supposed, would have damped the ardour of his adherents, it has had a quite contrary effect, and given an additional impetus to their ezer.ions. If we were to calculate upon the number of his sup porters by the display of his colours, orange and purple, which are seen in all directions, and decorating the hats', of a crowd of persons, we should be inclined to think that his opposition will be most annoying if not suc cessful. In anticipation of the latter, he put forth last night an address, assuring the electors that though, from the state of yesterday's poll, his el. ction mght ap pear problematical, it was nevertheless beyond a doubt. The other candidates appeared equally sanguine ; and we will not attempt to spoil the pleasing dream of am- bition of any of the honourable men, by giving our opinion as to the probable result.

At the close of the poll yesterday s the numbers were, - For Mr. Calnn . 954 Sir Robert Wilson . . 900 Mr. Nam . • . 690 Mr. CALVIIRT addressed As meeting. He said that it would be in vain for him to attempt to express his leelings or gratitude to them for the support and fa vourable reception they had given him on the present occasion. nor, indeed, would it be proper for him to do so, of it we , e in his power; because such conduct on his part would make it appear as if the contest they were engaged in were the personal contest of himself, whereas it was, in fact, their own; fir they, along with his worthy colleague and himself, were together bat ding for the independence of Southwark. His colleague l and himself had been accused by their opponents of being enemies to trade and the establi.hed Government of the country ; but he thought the electors of South wark, by their votes that day, abundantly ptoved that they looked upon them in a very d &rent light. He himself had also been charged with improperly co alescing with other candidates, both on this and on farmer occasions; but he could most positively affirm, that he hid never attempted t' dictate to them whGm they should select as his colleague,—he had never asked any elector for a vote excepting for himself. No doubt, as far as his own personal feelings were concerned, he should much prefer having his own tried friend, with whose family he had been acquaint ed for thirty years, and whose political principles c tin- . tided with his own, a•c'ciated with him in their service, to being rctarned to Parliament, as their representative, with a colleague whose politics were diametrically op posite to his own. Mr. Polhill stated himself to be the .friend to trade; but he thought he was not much pro moting it within the borough of Southwark, by insti tuting and continuing this contest ; but the fact was,' Mr. Polhill had been drawn into it by a party who had before attempted to impose a representative of their own nomination on the electors of Southwark. Sir ROIERT WILSON was better satisfied with the state of the poll to-day than what he was yesterday, because it was but right that the older member should be placed in the first post, especially when both of them were posts of honour. He had stated yesterday that their opponents had risen out of their sepulchres, but he thought he had made a mistake in saying so, for in fact they had never got completely out ; they were yesterday two feet deep in the mire, and to-day they were up. to their neck, and he should not be surprised to hear that they had given up the Oust before morning. This was a matter of rational joy to all of them, inasmuch as it would tend to keep down that sectarian spirit in politics; as well as in other matters, which was still stalking abroad. — Indeed, he himself had that day met with a proof of it in the person of an old woman, who had told him that she was no Catholi:, and that she 'would lather be ravished than kiss the Pope's toe. History supplied many instances of the prevalence of a similar spirit amongst higher per-onages. He trusted that his sup porters would to-night sleep on a bed of roses, and he did not doubt but that to-morrow they would repose on a bed of laurels.. Mr. Pouitta. next addressed the electors amid fre- quent interruption. He was confident of final success. It was inconvenient for his electors to attend that day, but to•motrow they would attend in greater force. There never w•s an Adininis ration mote deservedly popular than the present, and he gave the electors of Sauthw irk an op t ►ortunity of testi.yng their approval of Administration by supporting him. Toe support he had already met with was most &acting, and convinced him that it only required the persevering exertions of his friends to ensure his success. Yesterday evening. in pusuance of tv , tice, a Meeting was held at the Gordon Hotel, Covent-garden, for the avowed purpose of s liciting Mr. Secretary Canning to become a Cand date to represent the City of Westmin ster in Parliament. Mr. WESTMACOTT stated the object of the Meeting, and expatiated on the high merits of Mr. Canning. There was as yet no etioiiman appointed, and after several had been proposed and rejected, Mr. PITT took the Chair, or rather the table, and addressed the Meet ing in a few words, in which he descanted very freely on the state of thraldom in which the City of Westmin ster had long been held by the friends of the sitting Members. He concluded with calling on some of the Gentlemen who had been instrumental in summoning the Meeting to come forward and state their purpose in so doing. No one appearing, the waiter was sum moned, and he stated that the room had been engaged by Mr. Westmacott alone. The cry was then for Mr. \Vestmacott, who, having at length appeared, and being called on to explain, observed. that as an Elector of Westminster he considered that be had some right to assist in calling a Meeting of di:. Electors. There were more persons than be who had been active in doing so; they we. e in t! , e room, and might answer. Mr: PA MAIM then proposed a resolution that • Requisition should be presented by a Deputation to Mr. Canning, requesting that he would allow himself to be nominated as a Candidate for Westminster. This was seconded by Mr. BAINBRIDGI, and agreed to. The resolution of the Meeting, and letter, having been after some delay prepared and read ever, Mr. Cecile stated, that certain Noblemen and Gentlemen had solicited Mr. Canning to come forward, in a 'limner way, but the Right lion. Gentleman had positively declined their invitation. The CHAIRMAN said, that if his health were spared, and if he remained of the same mind—(laughter),—he would go over the way, also to the hustings, and boldly tell their opponents what he thought of their repre sentative claims. It was not classical knowledge, nor splendid talents, that he estimated so much in a Parlia mentary Representative, as attention to the local in terests of his constituents; and setting talents apart, it was upon this ground he recommended Mr. Canning to them. Who bad carried, he would ask, the Charing ' cross Improvement Bill? Cries—" Mr. Canning and his friends." Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting broke up. After Mr. PITT had left the chair, the requisition was signed by most of the electors present, and a deputation of their number immediately waited on Mr. Secretary Canning, to submit it to his consideration. The Right Hon. Gentleman, as might hove been anticipated, re ceived the deputation with much cordiality, but de clined giving his consent to be nominated this day, for the same reason that he had assigned on tits occasion alluded to by Mr. Cooke. SIALDON ELECTION-SECOND DAY. The whole of yesterday, from the commencement of the poll at Maldon, till the close, was a scene of much bustle among the ftiends'of the respective Candidates. To-morrow, being market day, is supposed will bring up the unpolled freemen, and settle the contest. At the close of the poll yesterday, the numbers were— For George Wina, Esq. T. B. Disc Esq. Quintin k, Est 864 794 577 The right of election at Maldon is in all the freemen, without exception ; and there is a singular custom in that town, which is, that when a man dies intestate, his Lands and tenements descend to his youngest son ; if he dies without issue, to his youngest brother. 1 1 ,, custom is termed Borough English, and Is said CO har t arisen from the lewdness and tyranny of the anclel, : feudal Lords, who, when any of those who held unck them married, claimed the first night with the bride. As some doubt, therefore, naturally arose, whether the fi r . : born child was legitimate, this custom was established to exclude such child from the inheritance, and iL t youngest was preferred, as being the remotest from the suspicion. A RUM:OIL—The election is fixed for this day. Asusuanon—Mr. &urges Bourne (in the room of the Attnrite. General) and Sir Lawrence Palk, will be returned without opp; sition. Bosuns— Mr. Headrest. and Mr. Malaria% are considered to have completely secured their seats; bit Mr. Wilks is expecte., The Orange and Pink Parties display very handsome banners, pat, ticularly the former.

Mr. Calthorpe, on the interest of his brother, Lord Calthorpe, and Mr. Irving 01 that of the Duke of Rutland. CA M 1141006 UNIVERSITY-Mr. Cioulburn remains firm in his is. tention of presenting himself at the Poll on Tuesday next: Cuscnrsexa—To-day is fixed for the commencement of the City Election. CnirraNnax—Mr. Grosset having declined the contest for C.is borough, there will be no further opposition to the two ropt:;‘: candidates, Messrs. Gye and Maitland. CoatavaLt—The Sir Francis Drake steam packet is engaged to convey voters for Sir K. Vivian from Plymouth, to thopoll a: Lost. withiel ; and ten stage coaches, with 100 horses, to furnish 'clays u every stage, are to he provided by Mr. Clench, proprietor of the New London Inn, Exeter, for the same purpose. DENBlOK—Vigorous preparations continue to be made in the tt boroughs (Denbigh, Ruthin, and Holt) for the approaching contra, which is likely to be one of the most severe, as it is in its character one of the most singular, in the annals of electioneering. V. sums have already been expended on both sides. The writ is ea. petted to arrive by to.muerow's post, and the election will prw bably open, for it will be contested to the last extremity, on the Monday or Tuesday following. The discussion respecting the alleged minority of Mr. Biddulph, one of the calididates, will not be the least curious feature in this election. It is asserted on the one part, that he will want some three or foor days of completing bts minority on the latest possible day on which the election can tape place; while it is contended on the other, that he will have fully attaied his majority on that day. Evidence will no doubt he ten dered on each side; and if the lawyers (of whom there are three engaged on the Biddulph side, at 3001. each) only manage to speak cleverly against rinse, the two or three days may thus be gained,;: they be really wanting. DUBIN—Our former Member of Parliament for this Boroug , a, FL F. C. Cavendish, Esq. and Samuel Crompton, Esq. the new Candidate, have commenced their canvass of the electors, atcusi panied by a most respectable party of their friends. Huth rile Candidates were everywhere received in the most cordial manner. Drrowsneit—Our county election is fixed for the 15th imtant, when Mr. Bastard and Sir T. D. A eland will walk over the course. DURHAM, COUNIT •ND Carr—Our election is fixed for l•ridAy next (to -day.) John Griffiths, Esq. Deputy Sheriff, proclaimed the writ for the county election, which be gave notice would take place on Thursday, the 15th instant. it is generally understood that both elections will be quietly got over, though a report is very prevalent to-day that a distinguished individual in Northumberlool would cause a third candidate to be put in nomination for the county. Extrza—At Exeter Mr. Buck, Sheriff of the county, and Mr. Kekewick will be elected on Saturday for that loyal borough. Gtoucareart.—The election commences on Friday next, when the late Members, IL B. Cooper, Esq. : and Colonel Webb, will again be put in nomination. Front the anxious efforts that have been made by many of the freemen to induce John Philpotts, Esq. to come forward as a candidate for the representation of the city, it is supposed that Gentleman wil l also be nominated ; in which case it is certain that Captain Berkeley will likewise he proposed.

Mr. Sykes has expressed his determination not to offer him self as a candidate for this borough. • Inwsen—The enthusiastic reception of Mackinnon and Dundee, the Candidates in the True Blue Interest at Ipswich, on TuesiLly last, must have been mast gratifying to their feelings ; and, no doubt, convinced the inhabitants that the -hour of triumph is 3t hand, when they will again be represeted by that party whose prin ciples are favourable to the welfare of our Constitution and the glorious cause of Protestant ascendancy. Never was such an im posing display of zeal and loyalty seen, as that which presented itself on this occasion. After proceeding through the town, Messrs. Mackinnon and Dundas respectively addressed the numerous as sembly in their interest from a balcony, on the Comhill, and their appearance was again greeted with the utmost enthusiasm. On the following day the Candidates proceeded on their canvass, and met with the most gratifying somas.

Leominerza.—This place. which was threatened with a dearth of candidates, owing to the .resignation of Sir J. B. Lubbock, has become the scene of renewed activity.

Williams has declined to avail himself of the request of the freemen to offer himself as a candidate; but qtr. Green, the auctioneer, has gone upon the hunt for another earl date. We are sure to have an opposition, but it will be contemp tible, and will merely protract the poll. The opposition of the mechanics is directed against Mr. Huskisson alone. Gaecoyae their favourite ; but the friends of the General are alarmed, lees the opposition of their allies should rouse the friends of Mr. Ma nsion into activity, and induce them to nominate, in self-defence. on the day of election, a second candidate.
