not even this day subsided, and everything portends that tie eon test will this evening he renewed. The proceedings of the day commenced at the es Mid hour. Sir Robert Wil•on and the other Candidates were early en the hust ings Mr. Polhill appeared in much better health and spirits than vrctertlay, and the same sanreine temperament seems still to alum etc him. In his address of this Morning, he assures his sup porters that sotto's is certain--that not one half of the electors have , et been polled, and that the majority of those use with him.

The crowd in the front of the hustings was, even greater than on the former days; and it appeared ; AS if the interest excited ha. extended to every carriage, cart, and wagzon, that passed, as scarcely one was to he seen that did not display the colours of one or other of the candidates. The coaches engaged to carry their friends to the hustings were also frequently coming up, and being hailed with cheers, kept the assembled crowd in a constant state of animation. The state of the poll WAS also exhibited occasionally, which produced bursts of applause from the friends of the successful candidates. At four o'clock the polling ceased, as on the former days; and in about half an hour the High Bailiff announced t h e numbers as follow : Mr. Calvert . Sir Robert Wilson . Mr. Polhill . . 14ES . 13E8 974 This announcement was received with immense cheering, when the applause had in some degree subsided, Mr. CALvaar came forward to a platform erected in front of the Hustings, and was received with long con tinued cheering. He said that, the day before, he told them he was incapable of expressing his satisfaction and his gratitude for their 'exertions in his favour ; on that dal he was still less capable of doing justice to his feel ings.—(Cheers).—They proved by their exertions that his conduct, as their Representrive, had met their ap. probation, and that they were determined to support their old and faithful servants, why,h was to him the greatest pride and honour. He had that day seen a placard, which stated that his friend. Sir Robert Wilson, hid spent all his money, and that himself was tired of the expence, and that therefore one or both of them must lose their election.(Laughler).—Those who put forward such placards little knew the independent spirit of the Electors of Southwark—they would never sell themselves, nor trust their Representation to those who could be capable of selling the sacred trust.--In the year 1818 he was invited to the Representation of Southwark by the independent Electors, who premised their support on independent principles—they had nobly redeemed their pledge; and they should ever find him faithful to his trust -(cheers).—He was delighted at the exertions they had made, and hoped they would come forward with promptness to-morrow, which could leave no doubt of the result.— (Cheerers).—He hoped they would give Mr. Polhill a patient and candid hearing; it was impossible to know what change might have taken place in his opinions if they would not hear him ; besides it was unbecoming in Englishmen to refuse to hear both parties. This address was followed by great applause. Sir ROBERT WILSON next came forwari, and was received with sbciuts of applause. He commenced hts address by saying, that he had, about half an hour be fore, drank all their good healths in a glass of good ale, and not being used to drink anything in the morn ing, he was afraid it might have some effect on his he4d, but certainly it could not diminish the gratitude of his heart for their exertions in his favour, and in support of their own independence—( Cheer r). —Yesterday he pro phetied that colour (Mr. Polhill's colour, which was lying before the hustings), would not fly that day. He was mistakenr but he was confident their enemies la mented much that they bad allowed it to fly, for they must have passed a night of Ugly dreams and frightful apprehensions.—(Cheers and laughter.)—lt was plain, however, from its being allowed to continue to fly,that their opponent was determined to die game; indeed he had no choice, for those who brought him forward had fairly made game of him—(Great laighter.).---They had raid that his (Sir Robert Wilson's) money was all gone, and that, of course, he must lose his election ; but they appeared not to know that no money was wanted to buy the Electors of Southwark, who could only be purchased by independent principles and faithful services; nor that he was an old soldier, and could spend half a cruwn out of sixpence a day—(Great applause).— He had also been accused of having formed a coalition with Mr. Calvert, but . there was no other compact between them than that of faithfully discharging their duty to their Constituents and their country (Loud cheering).--He had been invited by the independent Electors of Southwark to support Mr. Calvert, not to supplant him; and while his Hon. Friend coninued to fight the battles of Freedom, a cause which he would certainly never desert, be (Sir R. W.) would consider it the highest honour to combat by his side, and if he even had the power be would not consent to receive a seat at his expense.--(Applouss.) One or Mr. Polhill's Committee said yesterday they wanted a man that would bleed in his purse—they had got one, and Le (Sir R. Wilson) believed they had bled him pretty f eery—indeed be suspected the:r patient was getting 'fired of their Sangrado practice.--(Great lasightar.)— lie must now advert to a circumstance which he was sorry to be compelled to mention. They would all agree that the Committee room occupied by every Landidate should be as sacred as'his own house---that it was, in fart, his castle. He was perfectly satisfied that hlr.Polhiil was by no means accountable for the outrage he was going to mention ; but that, on the contrary, he must greatly regret it. Yesterday, as he was sitting <town with his friends to a good dinner, and with u an excellent appetite, in his 'Committee-room, at the Queen's Head, a number of men, dressed like dray. men, and evidently in a state of intoxication, came into the premises and threw stones, such as he now prodniced at his friends who were passing along the gallery.— ,Sir Robert here took from his pocket, and exhibited to the crowd a stone, about the size of a man's fist, the appearance of which existed a srong sensation. A peace , sffiser was sent for, but not arriving, they continued tile's violence till he was obliged to go out himself to disperse them, when, he must admit, they did not long remain. He meant not to cast the slightest imputation on Mr. Polhill, who must condemn such disgraceful ..; / conduct, but he was sorry to be nblitsitt * persons wearing Mr. Polhill's loloura the. drunken ruffians by crying, a do k, it'U a sof Sheft4,-He mentioned this that sorne . of her. Polhill's ] ComMittee might disclaim giving cdeolenance to such outrage. Southwark had been as distilskuished for the good order as for the purity of its elections, and he felt anxious that such conduct should not, either in Parlia ment or in public opinion, be used as an argument against popular elections--(Cheers). He had now only 'to repeat his acknowledgments for their energetic sup. port, to express his confidence that they would not relax• their efforts till they were crowned with victory, and to propose that they should give three cheers for the best friends of their cause, the Ladies of Southwark. Mr* POLHILL next addressed the electors: Hebegan by disclaiming any knowledge of the outrageous con duct mentioned by Sir Robert Wilson, which no one could more sincerely regret or more strongly condemn., It was the earnest desire both of his Committee and himself, that the euntest should he conducted with the utmost candour and liberality. He thought he had some claim to the confidence of the electors of South wark ; his father had represented them in three succes sive Parliaments, and he inherited the principles that had relcommended his father to their cho'ce. He was highly gratified by the exertions of his friends, which he felt confident would be crowned with success. Mr. Mum, a gentleman of Mr. Polhill's Committee, shortly addressed the Meeting, to di sc laim on the part of th e C ommittee any knowledge of the occurrence mentioned by Sir It. Wilson, which every member of the Committee would condemn as sin eerily as that Hon. Gentlestan himself. Indeed it was their ear nest desire that the contest should be conducted, not only with perfect honour, but with perfect good humour..—(Cheers.) All the balconies and windows within view of the hustings were ilarded with Ladies, all apparently anxious to catch every word °foe gallant Candidate's speech. The moment it was concluded the air resounded with the cheers of the assembled multitude. The MA Bailie then adjourned the rolling. • Ha asuntang.—abis borough k perhaps indebted to Mr. Nolan for the preservation of Its right to return Members. he having gra. tuitiously oliciated ai munsel against the bill for its disfranchise ment in the House of Lords.

They drew lots—Mr. Cobbett won. Who is first to be proposed? Lots again, and Mr. Gobbet' won. They then agreed that the voters should be brought up in tallies— that is to say, ten voters fee one, then tea for another, and so on. Who was to have the privilege Obviating up the first ten? Lots again—and again, for the third time, Mr. Cobbett wins. What, thrice! If this is not an omen, what is ? nrics the brindled cat bath mew'd. Can there be better luck than this?

Frankfort Paperi to the 4th instant reached us this forenoon. The only article they contain worth quoting, is the following observaeons on the effect the prospec tive opening or the English Ports has, and is likely to have, on the Corn Trade on the Continent: MATENCE, Mar fit Last autumn, when the English ports were open for the imports don of barley, the consequence was, that large consignments of that grain were made from the countries on the Rhine to England ; but the numerous restrictions which Impede the navigation of the, Rhine, and delay the conveyance of goods, had the effect of causing these consignments to arrive at their destination after the favoura ble moment had gone by. The proprietors, in consequence, were obliged to consign their corn to Englishihouses in London, Liver pool, &c. and to bear the ezpence of warehousing, as well as the risk attending it. This transaction afforded another proof how injurious the restrictive-system adopted by Holland is to its own interest ; fee the speculations of the Dutch, as well as the German, merchants were disappointed, and instead of the profit they rea sonably expected, they suffered loss. This umfasourabie added to the distrust which, since the late commercial Crisis in England, has affected the credit of the merchants of that country, has had the elect that at present no consignments are made for Holland and the Banks of the Rhine to England, and the orders ' from England will hardly be executed, unless gives by houses of unquenionabk solidity. In this manner the German and Otaech corn merchants will, in general, enjoy greater resection and se curity against the contingencies to which, without such transitions, the corn trade with Lnndun is hale. Meantinorthe measures adopted in England have, however, bad the effect of raising tie pekes of corn hi the ports of the NO be/talc's, as well as 111 Cologne, Mayenoe, rec.

This was an action, brought by the Clerk of the Commissioners, under a local paving act for improving certain streets erected on the estate of Mr. Lucas, in the parish of St. Pancras, to recover a sum of money, col lected from rates levied under the before•menttioned act, and which had been paid by the Commissioners into the hand, of Messrs. Marsh. Fanntler ry and Co. some time before the failure of that firm, whose assie nees the defendants were. It appeared that, without any specific appointment, the bankrupts had acted for a considerable time as bankers to the Commissioners ; and the question was, whether the bankrupts were per- SOW who same within the meaning of the general M. tropolitan Paving Act (the 57th Geo. 9, cap. 29). by which it is provided that a preference shall be given to the Commissioners, to whom money is due from the persons therein mentioned, the words used being " treasurers and others," before all other creditors. Mr. Fauntleroy had, it seemed, prior to the transaction in question, been appointed Treasurer to the Commissioners under the local act. A meeting had been convened for the purpose, but the appointment was signed by the Chairman alone. The COURT in giving judgment this day, held that the difficulty respecting the appointment of Mr. Nilotic roy was out of the question; and thereforethey restricted. their judgment to the words of the Act which have already been recited. They were on that point decidedly of opinion, that Messrs. Marsh and Co. came within the meaning of the words "or others' receiving money collected by the Commissioners, although they did not come within the enumerated classes of persons specifi cally pointed oft in the act.
