PR ESTON--_ -SAiviDAT Evinfota. The reavm why Mr. Cobbett appears so low on the :Al is, that so miny out of his tallies have been disal lowed, arLd principally for having received parish relief. A set of the-e persons get into a tally room, are tieing well, get plenty of drink for two or three days, perhaps at the expence of the Candidate, and when put to the :est on the hustings, they turn out to be neither gold :nen nor true. Backwardness in the poll, when the tally system is pursued, is nest to being irreparreile. The ef fectof the present prospect in the minds of Alr.Cobbett'b friends is visible; the thing, in short, is sip with him. There was circulated here yesterday morning a sheet, entitled " The Political Mountebank, in which Cobbett 's claim to a seat in Parliament are submitted to the good sense of the Electors of rres ton. No. f. to be continued every morning during the Fiecsiou." - It consists merely of extracts from the " Life of Cobbett." WORCESTER., JUNI Is.

The right of election is in all persons paying to church and poor, and yet there are only fifty-seven voters. The nuenbeis on the close of the first day's poll, were— General Sir Itufaoe Donkin Mr. Colvile . General Grosvenor . &Ir. Wilbrabint . e • 7 • 7 The ingenious Sir Richard Steele, who represented Borough in the reign of Queen Anne, carried his election against a powerful opposition, by the merry expedient of sticking a large apple full of guineas, and declaring it should be the prize of that man whos:: wile :,ould first be brought to-bed after that day nine months. This, we are told, procured him the interest a the women, who are said to commemorate Sir Richard's bounty to this day, and once made a strenu ous effort to procure a resolution, that no man should ever be received as a candidate who did not offer him self upon the same terms. CHESTER—SATURDAY The city is in a state of great ferment, and much ill will mu tually prevails. Several skirmishes have taken place between strag gling parties on each side, but a general row ozcuried opposite the Royal Hotel, about two o'cleck this day. The Grosvenor party were coming through the east gate with all the electioneering paraphernalia of gor geous flAgs and favours, and a long train of canines. The other party were coisng in the opposite din ction, preceded by their humble drum and fife, playing their soul•stirring tune-4 4 th►e Sixth of Mag." A general engagement ensued, in which the Egerton party were certainly the aggressors. The person who preceded the band of the Grosvenor party was knocked down, and mo,t unmercifully pummelled before he could succeed in taking shelter, in the Royal Hotel, the doots and s.indows of which were imiredirely closed. liar.? ?Air ELzete o'CLocz— In consequence of a few handbills, a most numerous and respectable meeting of the freemen took place :t the Albion Hotel, at nine o'clock. A number of Gentlemen put down their names, each to defray the expense of admitting five loung men to their freedom ; and besides this, upwards of £7OO were immediately subscribed in the room. A committee was ap pointed, for the first time this election, to meet te-morrew morning (" the recording angel will drop a tear" to blot out the profanation of the Sabbath in sonsidetation of the sacredness of the cause) to arrange for bringing op the voters in regular - tallies on Monday morning. Lord Beigrave got literally roughly handled this after moo, by thenailt of certain Amazon asserters of the freedom of election on his return from the battings. BRIDGENORTII. The state of the poll for Bridgenorth, at the clot* on S turday, was as under : Thomas Whitmore, Esq. . Ist day St sd day 251 - Total 302 . Ist day 37 241 day 155 -- Total 192 . lit day 19 2d day 9$ -- Total 117 W. W. Whitmore, Esq. Mr. Ludlow The alleged offence against Mr. W. Woolrych Whitmore is his ♦oting for the Catholic Bill. The con test is entirely between him and the new Candidate, al•.. Ludlow ; and the latter has distinctly declared he trill •ote againq any further concession to the Catho lics, nor will he vote (if elected) for any alteration in the Corn Laws. CAMELFORD. Colonel Cradock artcillll.biiibink, the late Members for this borough, and who stand on the interest of the' Earl of Darlington, and Sir Henry Cook, Aid-de-Camp to his Royal Highness the Duke of York, and who comes forward on the interest of the Marquess of Hert ford, are busily employed in looking after their several i Iterests here. Of the twenty-two persons who claim tie right of voting, eleven have declared for the norni :ire of the Noble Marquis ; but as some objections are (aken to the residence of some of them, it is very likely nominees of the Noble Earl will be returned. This, is is probable, will give rise to a petition to the House oi Commons againbt the return. Should this be the case, the consequences of the disclosures that will, most probably, be made, may be such as both parties would . wis!i to avoid. CARLISLE-SITU SAT.S A terrible disCnri;iiisieisasjusc taken place in the Town Hall ; I was not an eye-witness of it, but what follows I relate on good authority. Mr. William Brougham, brother of Henry Brougham, Esq. M.P. rose, rid in a most energetic speech declared that Sir Philip '4 , lsgrave was forced on the freemen at the point of the bayonet; that at that momem cavalry were stationeJ ..in'sier arms, within three hundred yards of the city, and he protested most vehemently against such uncon stitutional proceedings. When Mr. B. made this announcement, the uproar was tremendous ; the Mayor was with the greatest difficulty protected from the ..ruriated mob. Sir J. Graham insisted on his signing wn order for the military to retire four miles from the city, with which he complied. He then adjourned the Court, finding it utterly impossible to proceed ; but on is retiring was so roughly handled, that he is now TC . i )usly The poll stands thus— Sir J. Graham • Sir P. Musgrave Mr. James COVENTRY, Java tt. 206 195 107 All bustle here. The new candidates ate very copular, and have commenced with eclat. Mears. Moore and Ellice are not allowed to speak a word. and yesterday only polled one per hour. At the close the numbers stood— Mr. Hestkete 71r.

SArespAv Evr, kac.—Vr. Moore has demanded that the to tong oaths" shall hz put to earls elector s These are the oaths of al legiance and supremacy, the deelaratiun of fidelity, the oaths of abjuration, and the affirmation and declaration of the effect Thereof: During the whole of the day, the freemen were bitterly tailing against the giving farther political power to the Catholics, and on that ground only, in many instances, gave their votes for Tyler and Heathcote, who declared themselves opposed to Catholic Emanci pation and the Corn Bin. At the booth, Mr. Moore wars told that the Priest at the Catholic Chapel was delaying mass for him. One freeman told him that they wanted to make a Pope of him. °lf you do," he replied, " ni not absolve you!" DEVONSHIRE ELECTION: The High Sleiitf of the County has'appointei Tues. day, the 13 , h instant, as the day for the nomination ofi Members to represent the County of Devon : and on Thursday, at tea o'clock in the forenoon, at the Castle of Ex-ter, he will proc , ed to the Erection. There will be no nppn•ition ; Sir T. D. Arland and E. P. Bastard will b.nh be re-elected. It is generally said, but with what truth we know nor, that Lord Ebrington intends bring present on the day of nomination. DU RIIA NI COUNTY. The county election was proclaimed on Monday last, in the Market-place, and in front of the County Courts, by John Giiffids, Esq. Deputy Sheriff ; it will take place on Thursday nes , . A report has been very prevalent, for some days past, that a third candidate, in the person of Mr. Eiward Beaumont ibrother to the candidate for Northumbeiland), will be put in nomi nation. We know not what degree of credit.to attach to this rumour, but it seems Mr. Lambton has thought it worthy of notice, for he not only alluded to it, but expressed himself in strong terms on the subject, in a speech which he delivered at North Shields on Monday last.— Durham Advertiser. QUEENBOROUGIi. The election for the borough of Queenhorough commenced on Saturday. The candidates are Lord Bentinck, one of the late representatives, Lord Donne, and Mr. Capel : the two fest offer themselves under the patronage of the Board of Ordnance; the latter:offers himself as a Blue;" and it is expected that Lord Down: and 51r- Capel will be the successful candidates. Mr. Hol ford does nut again come forward fur this borough. State of the pull on Saturday:— J. Capel . 144 Lord Downe . 15.1 . . Lord F. I3entinck 11.5 . . SUDIMItY, Jut's 12. The election commenced here this morning, after a. very active canvass on the part of all the four Candi dates. The number of voters is 725 ; and the right of election is in the freemen by birth or servitude. Oa the close of the first day's poll, the numbers were:— . Wills . 518 . Waltond Mr. RUtcii, the barrister, who was also a candidate, has retired. M A [MON. Mr. Dick seems determined to contest this borough to the last ; and though the last on the poll, he do.: hot lose courate. The following is the state of the poll at six o'clock last night : Winn • 1353 Leonard 1132 . . Dick 955 . . IPS WlCll—Ftarr DAY. The election f(,r this borough commenced yesterday. The right of voting is in the bailiffs, portmen (an es sential and constituent part of the great Coutt for making freemen of the borough), and the freemen at large not receiving alms. There are about 625 voteis. There are tour candidates for the borough ; and at the close of the poll on the first day the numbers were, for 1141dimand 290 Turrens 289 Mackinnon . . l: undo ELEcTinx INTELLIGENCE GENERALLY. Boants—This day the election takes place at Rodmln—Davles Gilbert and Horace Seymour, Rsqrs. will be returned. Bosantsv—The election is fixed for Monday nest. Candidates, J. S. Worthy, jun. Esq. and E. R. Tummy, Esq. Report says, two other candidates are expected. Cosies Co —The late Members will resume their seats. Caataitorom—Mr. Mackinnon and Mr. Baring will be returned for this borough. It is said • Mr.• Dundas has resigned. and Mr. Sergeant Ludlow comes forward in his stead. _ gasax—A numerous deputation of freeholders returned here, preparatory to the election for the county, on Wednesday, after waiting on Sir Robert Wigram, Bart. at Walthamstosv House, tiering their support in favour of one of his sons. Sir Ruben said, if a commercial man was really wanted for the county, his ions, who bad been tried in Parllament,were staunch against Popery and any innovation in the Corn Laws. He would subscribe £20,000 towards the expense. Fewer—Borne demonstrations indicative of an opposition to the late candidates have been made by the corporator' here; but it is very much doubted whether they will venture to take the field against the united interests of Mr. Austen and Mr. Luck ' or rather, whether they can get any persons able to raise the ways and means, to enter on so desperate an enterprise. asontrusi is expected to be warmly contested ; the candidates are Harry Baynes Lou, Esq. one of the Devon county Magistrates, Ralph Sneyd, En. and Mr. Guest, in the iron trade, Cardiff. Lacuna. Juni 11.—The poll is expected to commence on Tues day (to -day), to-morrow (Monday) being the nomination day. The candidates are Sir Charles Abney Hastings, Mr. Otway Cave, and Mr. Evans. There is every prospect of success to the two former. Sir Charles's return is, however, considered certain ; he will come in on the Corporation and True-Blue interest, and it is expected to be a very hot contest; already the town is inundated with squibs pro and con. Hitherto the Blues scent to have the best of it. . Lo•s--At Looe, all bids fair for the return of Mr. Buller's Ma cias, which Gentleman is clerk to the Privy Council. Maexsozoonu—Great exertions are making in this borough to oppose the interest of the Marquis of Aylesbury ; but we apprehend it will be unavailable as far as regards the return of the Members for the next Parliament. Naserual—An attempt has been made to oppose the nominees of the Duke of Northumberland in this place, by a canvass in favour of Sir H. Willoughby, but it is believed the interest of his Grace is too strong to be shaken. Peravn—Monday is Sled for the commencement of the election at this place. It is understood that four candidates will go to the poll—Lord Perceval, Mr. Meaning, the Bank Director, Mr. Bar clay, the celebrated brewer, and Mr. Weeding. speaks favourably of the prospects of Lord Perceval and Mr i . t E r c t lay, but at present It is impossible to count, with any certainty, on the issue of the contest. Sr. Ives—At St. Ives, so famed for party spirit, where, as in other boroughs in the county, there have been many candidates, it is expected that Sir Christopher Hawkins and Mr. Halle (the lat. ter gentleman having come forward upon the invitation of the electors, and being the last to enter the lists) will be returned with out opposition; the other candidates, namely, Mr. Wallis, of Sand hill House. Mr. William Praed, of Trevethow, and of the firm of Praeds and Co. bankers, in Fleet-street, whose family, from their weight of property in the borough, but which now belongs to Sir chri.sopher, had long possessed the entire patronage, and Mr. Ste phens of Tregenna Castle, having successively retired from the contest. TOTMUL —There are three Candidates, Mr. Courtensy, Lord Barnard, and Mr. Baldwin. There are only SS electors. TIII•0111.- it is thought that the interest of Lord Darlington will prove too strong for the opposition here, as at Camelford. —Neither pains nor expense have been spared to support an elective opposition, with what success will soon be known. Mr. Lusbiagtim and Mr. T. Brougham, on Lord Darlington's it:wrest, are opposed by Mr. Gordon and Mr. Mackillot—the election takes place this day. W 11144. —Thursday, Edwards, the new Candidate fqr the Borough of Wells, arrived there with a few carriages of out voters, amidst the a cc lamations of the people. He appeared in high spirits, and his party are very sanguine for success. The unfortunate ill. nem of Mt. Williams, the colleague of the above Gentleman, pre-, vents him from being present, but Woe sent his two sons to re present him. The polling of the 'mere commenced ou Saturday• Wattiscro.zo.—Tbeee wW belk- min tam.* ha". Colonel Hughes and Cuittnel Roberts stand on the WM( houg os t, whi c h ii eveftwhere declining. flr.

He is the chosen champion ; and will appear at the hustings supported by nino.tenths of all the really independent electors of this ancient town , Colonel Heghes, the strenuous supporter of Lord J. Russell's last motion, will be upheld by the" most sweet voices" of these performers who always chime in unison with that which is here calleds'lltifler's music." —" The Miller of Wallingford" is a personage who, subsequently to each election for Members of Parliament In that Borough, sets out from a certain house in the town, encumbered with some tun dred and fifty bags, each containing twenty guineas, one of which, without explanation, he deposits in the house of each of those elector who may have voted for a certain candidate. • WALES. The day of election for Glamorganskire is fixed for the 19th inst. at Bridgend, when the late worthy Member, Sir C. Cole, will be returned without opposition. The election of a Member to repre sent the boroughs will take place on Monday next, at Cardiff, and there is no doubt of Lord James Stuart being returned. Brecon berough election is to take place on Monday next ; the county election on Friday. Colonel Wood arrived at Brecon on Wednesday evening, and is now canvassing, but there is no opposi tion expected. The election for the borough of Carmarthen Is fixed for this day (Friday), when, no doubt, Mr. Jones will be be re-elected without opposition. Mr. Allen, of Cresselly, the late representative for Pembroke having declined the contest for that borough, Hugh Owen, Esq. (son of Sir John Owen, Bart.) will be elected without opposition. As no new candidates have offered themselves for Carmarthen shire, Pembrokeshire, Cardiganshire, Radnorshire, or Monmouth shire, the re-election of the late Member s is considered certain. SCOTLAND. Mr. Campbell of Blythswood's return for the Glasgow district of burghs is secured. The lion. Lieut. General Alex. Duff, brother to the Earl of Fife, will be returned for the burghs of Elgin, Cullen, Banff, Kin tore, and Inverary. It is understood that Robert Grant, Esq. of Lincoln's Inn, will be chosen the representative of the royal burghs of Inverness, For tune, Nairn, and Forres. • • Lord Francis Leveson Gower, will be chosen the representative of Sutherlandshire. Sir Hugh Innes of Lothalsh, Bart. will be re-elected for the royal burghs of Tab, Dingwall, Dornoch, Wick, and Kirkwall. Wick, we believe, is the returning burgh at the approaching election.

THE ARMY.' ~.... The 60th Rifle Corps are about to march from Manchester, where they have been stationed some•time. The inspection of depots of Regiments on foreign service in rly mouth garrison is daily taking place by Major-General Sir Jests Cananon, who is ju.t returned, after leave of absence, Colorel Voneostat, R. M. in the interval having - takeit the command. Sir Janis Cocuusx, Barrack-,Master and Payniaster-Genc7.l of the layal Limbos, is daily exprcte.l at Plymouth ; and rep tt states, that the privilege lately given to t h e a rm y, w i t h re l at i on to the Brevet rank selling out, will he eveudeJ, according to Nlaaerres particular wishes, to the Royal Artillery and lloy.l Marines. The I lila (or North I)rvon Infantry) has lately marched Into Waterford, in forced marches, from Tralee, intended as the first reinforcement front irelaaJ, in case the disturbinces in and round Manchester had continued. Gar, Juan 9.—Saturday the garrison of Cork, ionsisting of a brigade of Artillery, commanded by Calomel SMITH, of the 3J Dragoon Guards, under the command of Cr Wei Homes, and the 19th and 29th Regiments of Infantry, commanded respectively by Colonels M'Dostriti.c. and Sir Joint Supers, ELM. were re viewed fic the large Camp Field - at the rear cirtke barracks. At half-past eleven, General Sir G. Bractom, Commandant of this district, entered the field, accompanied by a numerous staff, when the whole being formed in line, presented a very fine appearance. The troops, after the usual inspection, passed the gallant Genes- , in review, after which they performed the various evolutions, which the present highly improved state of military tactics afforded an opportunity for echibiting with mere than usual precision. HAYMARKET THEATRE. A new Farce, called 'Twist the Cup and Me Lip, by the Author of Paul Pry, was last night produced at this 'Theatre. The plot may be told in two words. All ;aright (WILLIAMS), citizen of the old school, under petticoat government, has been persuaded to give his daughter in marriage to Simon Pengander (Ltsrott), a rot tune-hunter from the Land's End. The Lady (Mies A. Jones) is, of course, averse to the match, having a penchant towards a gentleman, with the irresistible I name of Mandeville (Mr. RAYMOND). Matters have gone so far, that the wedd;ng day has arrived, and Afi i Wright has actually paid 5,0001. towards his dau g hter's portion; aniodthough he begins to entertain doubts of his intended son-in-law's gentility, he is resolved to proceed. At this critical moment, Mrs. Freeman (Mrs. GLovsa), a Lady to whom Mr. Pengander had formerly paid his addresses, and who had obtained from him a written promise of marriage, arrives, and discovers his charac ter. This, however, does not stop the match, for Mrs. K'agstlf (Mrs. C. Joon), who has not her name for nothing, decides, in spite of her brother, Alltvright, that the marriage shall take place that very day. Jack Larhint(Mr. Vtotoo), a cousin of the family, th-n joins with Mrs. Freeman, to frighten Simon ['engender off the match, in which they at last succeed, and every thing terminates in the usual way. Ltsrota is, of course, the teal hero of the piece, and, as usual, convulsed the house with laughter. A scene (an old one by the %% ay), in which he is persuaded he is s dr, was excellent. Mr. VINING performed the part of a lively scheming triend with great credit to himsrlf. Mrs. GLovatt, as a laugh ing good-humoured widow, su ceeded very well.— There are but few puns, the merriment of the piece consisting chiefly of some very lively repartees. The an nouncement of the piece for to-night was received with very general applause. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING ROOM ROOM TATTERSALL' Joss it. There was a very strong attendance this afternoon, bat the prin dpi business consisted in the settlement of bets on the Ascot Races, and which were this year unulually heavy; and here we must remark that the system of postponing the settlement fur the.e races till the Monday, is very objectionable, and keeps a great many country Gentlemen in town ; the bets should be paid on the ground, and then much inconvenience would be prevented. The betting was slack at the foltowing odds : JULY ITAXIS-1111.1111• CULT. 4; to 1 agst Amadis 4i to 1 agit Mameluka DONCA.TZR ST.

Mr. Rosi shot remarkably well. • • • The remains of the lamented Lady Cumttorra Lemon arrived at Truro last Thursday evening, on the way to the family seat at Care Lew, whence they are to be taken to the family vault in Mylor Church•—lt is indeed melancholy to reflect on the ravages which death has made in that respected family, within a comparatively abort period. Lady Lawton, the mother of the pre st•nct Baronet; his venerated father, Sir William ; their grand daughter, who died in Italy; and her brother, the only retraining child of Sir CHASLUS and Lady Citastasres, who was lately drowned at harrow—these are now followed by L tdy CHASLOTTE, who is borne in the tomb, which a few weeks before received the remains of her only son ! VON WEBEIt 3 1' U N KRA L.-- The body of this lamented Musician .ill he carried to St. Paul's on Friday nest, where Moz TIT'S Lepien: will be pe.formeJ by most of the princiiiii Singers. At the Dinner given by the Merchant Taylors' Com pany, on Saturday, the Gentlemen present were muds surprized by the appearance of a man in the Hall, after the second course was put on the table, dressed in a white jacket, cap, and apron, and armed with a large knife and fork by his side. at his entry, some of the company supposed he was an unfortunate mini ic, who had escaped out of custody. The ife was converted in imagination into a dagger, or stiletto. All stood with astonishment. The waitets trembled with tear, their teeth chatteling in their heads : they " grinned horribly a ghastly smile," each one suspecting he should fall a victim to the fury i f the unknown intruder. The worthy Maser of the company, however, soon restored order; observing, there was not any danger to be ap prehended from the person who stood before them, as he was only an ancient officer, a carver ; and he really proved himself an expert tine, in the rapidity with which he supplied the guests' plates with slices of venion from some of Birch's fine hauncht s.
