? i L DERBY COUNTY ELECTION. Monday last, the Election of a Knight to represent .That County, in the room of the late EDWARD MILLEtt Mutiory, Esq. took place by appointment of Niue Gru., Esq. Wet Sheriff for the County, at the County Hall, in Derby, when FRAwcia MUNDY, E•q. the only candidate, appeared with a numet ous party of friends; at the same time the doors being opened to the Pub lic, every I•lace affording a view of the proceedings was occupied. His Majesty's Writ, the Act of Parliament against Bribery and Corruption at Elections, &c. having been read, and the usual preliminary business gone through, the HIGH SHERIFF addressed the Court in a neat and appropriate introductory speech. Sir GEORGE Cnewo then rose and proposed Mr. Mundy, by a short and eloquent address, which was delivered in a most impressive manner, and received with universal satisfaction. - - The Hon. GREY VERNON seconded the proposition, and, no other candidate appearing, Mr. Mundy was declared duly elected by the Sheriff. Mr. MusnY then came forward and addressed his constituents with much animation and energy ; at the conclusion of his speech the applause was loud and reiterated. The new Member then received the warm congratulations of his friends,and was chaired through the principal streets of the town. In the afternoon a large party of Freeholders dined at the Kings Head Inn, at which the newly-elected Member presided as Chairman, and the remainder of the day was spent with, the utmost harmony and festivity. CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY ELECTION. CA MBRlDGE—Tcesnmr Eviarfica. The VICE-CHANCELLOR adjourned the polling at three o'clock; it re-commenced at six, and continued tin ten, when it was again adjourned till to-morrow. The polling went on briskly during the whole day. It is still quite impossible to form any correct idea of the numbers polled for each candidate, but there is little doubt that Mr. Bamcgs is considerably at the head of this day's poll. Mr. SCARLETT is considered second ; but it is expected that he will gain ground to-morrow, as many Gentlemen of the Bar are yet to come down, who will vote far him. His friends are still sanguine in their hopes of success, but unless he makes a great exertion to-morrow, I believe that Mr. BA NEES will be the successful candidate. Lord HERVEY is what may be called the popular can didate among the townspeople, because he is more known to them, and because his Lordship has been the last who has spent his money amongst them. —He is a very young man, quite boyish in his ap pearance, and has taken his degree not more than a year since. It is admitted by all parties that Mr: SCARLET? would be the fittest person to fill the im portant office cf Representative of the University.— In the course of the evening the Students in the gal lery, on seeing Mr. SCARLETT address a few words, in a low tune, to the VICE-CHANCELLOR, probably thinking he was about to make a speech, began to,' stamp and evince sonic marks of applause, which so displeased the Vice-CrtaNcem.oa thut he imme diately ordered the gallery to be cleared, and.nono but voters were admitted for the remaining part of i the evening. This applause was a direct violation of the VICE-CH NCELGOR'S order. The following notice was posted up this morning, in the Senate House: i " person in stem poputeri ip admitted to the gallery of the senate House but upon this implied condition, that being so ad mitted, he abstain from any expression of approbation or disap probation, and any violation of this condition will be seriously punished. The Vice-Chpcellor further mo.st earnestly requests from all strangers the slue forbearance from any expression of sentisftnt on their part." WEDNESDAY. The polling commenced again this morning at ten o'clock. it was very slack till about twelve, when many of Mr. SCA RLETT . S friends arrived, principally Gentlemen of the Bar; amongst whom were Mr. BELL and Mr. HEALD, of the Chancery Bar. Mr. SCARLETT is gaining, but not sufficiently to outstrip Mr. BANKES, who still continues a-head. The num bers cannot be known, from the mode of polling, till the conclusion, which, it is thought, will be about eleven o'clock to-night; but it is not certain whether the numbers will be declared then or in the morning. To enliven the dullness of the Election here, there are Concerts, which began yesterday evening, and will continue till the Election is over. Miss PAToN is the principal attraction. The bustle of yesterday is be ginning to ce:44e, and the town is resuming its usual appearance. Mast of the members have been polled, but-the Election will continue open till late, as some are still expected. Half-past Two, P. M. Mr. Babiass is still ahead. and the voters are corning in so slowly that there is little chance of the other candidates pulling up. 'ie celebrated CIII.EIERMACTIER, one of the first shilooophers a Germany, Professor of the Univeraity Or Berlin, and Chaplain for the KUM in the Reformed Church, has been dismissed from all his employ stunts by a Ministerial Order. In the last number of the New Monthly Manwzifte there is a vei y hurnurous paper called "Select Society ; or, a Week at Worthing," which, we believe, is from the pen of Mr. JAMES SMITII, one of the Authors of the Rejected Addresses. Mr. Ssttru, we, understand, has been prevailed upon to dramatise his story, which is to be pa oduced at Drury-Lane Theatre, with LISTON as the hero of the Piece. JEWISH INTERNIFINT.—A foreign Journal relates the following circumstance, which recently occurred at Lubeck, as a proof of the strictness of the Jews there in regard to their customs at interments " An Englishman, who had just arrived at Lubeck, fell very ill and died suddenly. He was buried ac cording to the Christian ritual. soon afterwards, it was discovered that he was of the Jewish persuasion. On ascertaining this fact,. the Jeovs disinterred the boty, took it taut of the coffin, and carried it into a Jewish house. There it was stripped and **posed to •iew in such *manner, that the bare feet projected from the window. At the same time they soundly scourged the deceased,- as if to chastise him for some ain that he had tomrniued. After he had thus made 'due atonement, his remaiws wimp .bgtied a second line, agreeably to the Jevrishatuniont. 'l'l i E EV EN 'A It. LONDON.. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1822. THE FUNDS.

The numbers, at the close of the poll, were as follow : Mr. BA mu - . - - oft Lord Ilmivirr . Serm.rrr 2111 At a late hour this forenoon we received the Jour nal de Paris of Tuesday, by Express. The following are extracts: PARTS, NOVEMBER 26. - . To-day the King gave a particular audience to Baron Haussez, also to Count Villele, President of the Council of Ministers. The King did not go out this day. A brig called the Durance has brought accounts from the Brazils of the 25th of September, that the Prince Royal has decidedly taken the title of Consti tutional Emperor, and the Proclamation is to be issueil on the 12th October, the day of his birth. The famous Trappist has abandoned the Army of the Faith: he arrived on the 19th instant, in the morning, at Toulouse; and it is stated, that before his departure from Urgel he discovered a great con spiracy, as follows:—The day after his arrival he went to visit the fort, and wished to have the artil lery exercised ; but on examining one of the batteries he found most part of the cannon loaded with sand, and others with balls put in before the powder. A great number of emigrants have arrived at Toulouse within these few days. _ _ An Evening Paper announces as positive news, that England has definitively concluded a Treaty of Commerce with Spain, and a courier had been sent to the Duke of Wellington, with instructions that he announce it officially to the Congress. The day before yesterday an extraordinary courier was dispatched by the Minister of Foreign Affairs to Madrid, and this evening one was sent off for Verona. Extract of a private letter from Verona, dated the 15th November " Several couriers arrived here yestertlay from Vienna and St. Petersburgh, and we areassured their dispatches are of the utmost importance concerning Turkey and the Greeks. The Ministers of the dif ferent Powers asambled this morning at the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Austria, Prince METTERNICH. Lord WELLINGTON assisted at the conference. It is said his Grace is on the eve of his departure for Lon don, by which it is concluded that the Congress is on the eve of breaking up, and the result of which will soon be published. " For several days past, various reports are in cir culation ; some of them are warlike, and others peace able. It is also stated, that the Minister of France will soon take his departure for Paris, and will carry with him the definitive decision of the Congress re. garding Spain. Several of the dip's:en:die characters state, that if war is declare& against Spain, that France will not be engaged alone, and that her troops will be supported b.y an army of reserve of Anglo- Prussians, or Russians ; but we consider this only as an opinion, or conjecture." A private letter from Paris, of Tuesday, states that MINA has followed op his successes, and completely destroyed the Atmy of the Faith ; likewtse, that there has been several other engagements in ♦arious other parts, in which the Constitutionalists hkve been successful. Another letter states, that a party of the Army of the Faith, in their flight to the French %frontiers, were met by some French troops belonging to the French, Army of Obentvation, who rebuked them for their cowardice, a quarrel ensued, end the Fteach party fired on the Spaniards, at the :Matsui calling; tout, l rive le Constitution St It is laid that the French Government have done all in their power to keg/3 the above a secret from the Public. The French Papers of Monday !mei reached us by the Mail. Their contents are of little im portance. On Sunday the Duchess of ANCIOULEBIS presented to the select gendarmerie of the Royal Guard a standard which she had embroidered, and which she. tied on the flagstaff. The Almoner gave it his 'benediction and a speech. Reports were circulated in Paris that communica tions had been opened between Mini and the. Frenc h. Army of Observation. The Quotidieitae denies this, and expresses a hope that " the French army will soon have an opportunity of, covering with shame those who attribute to it anti-French sentiments." Several precautions have been adopted respecting the Law School and the College du Plessis, in•order that no persons may be admitted to the lectures ex cept students who have their tickets. The principal entry to these establishments continues half shut, and the officers of the school attend to make the tickets be shewn. It was reported in Paris that the Army of the Faith had taken Salinas, en the road to Vittoria, and that all the Militia in the place were maJc prisoners. The following are-extracts X • ; form' to "'Tender. Napoirdi Romania holds gni yet, though idles not been supplied by the Turkish flee t and it is on the point of surrenderinrg, at lean if the friends of the Turks, the Austrians, bihaving bozh unjustly and inhumanly, do not succeed in supplying it as they have already attempted, when the Turkish fleet left Cape Melee. The Government has been in stalled at. Hermione (Caste i) and has recommenced its operations with much energy. The affairs of Candia are also going on admirably.. CORFU. OCTOBER 44. Chourschid Pasha has sent another army of 8000 men against Livadia. This army, commanded by Trani Pasha and Carcandoli, advanced to the Ther mopylre, but attacked by Odysseus, it lost nearl 7 two-thirds of its numbers, and the remainder were cut to pieces in their flight by Captain Contojean i:t the defiles of Gravia. After this battle Odysseus aJ vanced to Domoco, a town of Thessaly, after leaving L a sufficieut numbcrof troops to besiege Zeiteuni. Omar Pacha has lately sent to the Acarnanians lay down their arms, and to surrender ; but they re• plied, they would never be under his dominion unless as corpses ; that it was useless to send anything but troops to them, whom they were ready to.rcceive.— The Acarnanians have sent their women and children on the other side of Asprepotame, and those who are capable of bearing arms, to the number of 8000, am firmly resolved to perish or conquer, but not to aban don their country a prey to the enemy. The Austrian Obserrer to the 16th instant bas been received, but it contains nothing of importance. The following is the state of the Funds: VzuwA, Nov. 15.—Metalliques 86 5-2—Bank Shares 942 Nov. 14.—Metalliques 861—Bank Shares 933. This forenoon we received Bayonne Papers to the 20;h instant. We have anticipated much of their contents in our extracts from the French Papers. NVe subjoin some sensible remarts on the state of Spain in answer to the warlike article of the Journal des 1 1 Debuts: BAYONNE, NOVEMBER 19. Travellers daily arriving from the Peninsula, com plain bitterly of the great number of robbers who infest the high roads, but otherwise tranquillity ge nerally prevails, especially in the great towns. The most perfect union continues between the Cortes and the Ministry. The writer of a late article in the Journal des De bats seems not to be acquainted with Spain, or at least he must have been misinformed ; for to believe that modifications in the Constitution might be ob.: tained by force of arms is an illusion. The new system has struck too deep a root—the Revolution must proceed in its course: the Liberals know that they 'cannot go back, and that they are able to sur mount all obstacles to the consolidation of their work. The invasion of the country by a great army, sup posing it could even reach Madrid, would increase the disorder and anarchy, but not lead to the triumph which is desired. Spain is not a rich nation, whose people dread a foreign enemy: the great mass has nothing to lose; naturally poor and miserable, they are always ready to take up arms, and there is no doubt that the present Government has sufficient means to set them in motion. It is but too true that the three Riscayan provinces and Navarre would be glad to see an auxiliary army which would restore them their privileges and com mercial immunities, which they enjoyed before the Revolution: but this would have no essential influ ence in the interior, for these provinces have always been considered as if they were a foreign country ; tke rest ef the nation was jealous of the immunities they enjoyed, and had frequently demanded the sup pression of them ; and the Andalusians, Castilliaus and other people of the Peninsula, would desire no better than to make war there respecting the places which manifest attachment to the Constitution, such as Bilboa, Vittoria, &c. It appears certain, that if- the late Ministry Lad proceeded boldly, in a constitutiohal manner, these would not now be any insurgents in the three pro vinces, or in Navarre, notwithstanding the proteor don they have received abroad ; for, in fact, what have Equia, Qnesada, &c. hitherto done ? In all this time, though they flatter themselves with having the inhabitants in their favour, they have not been able td possess themselves of a single point d'appui in the country, except that miserable fortified house, Irati, which they would have lost long ago, if Espinosa had chosen to take it ; whereas the Constitutionalists, though they cannot depend on the inhabits ins like their adversaries, still maintain themselves with a handful of brave men. The St. Sebastian Gazette contains nothing interest ing ; it merely mentions the arrival at Vittoria ut battalions from the interior. • The Saragossa Gazette says that Mina, whose beat quarters were at Agramont on the Bth, hoped to al* proach Urgel in a few days. The company of Ali quelettes under • his command has lately been rein• forced by 300 deserters from the army of Genera) Erolles. The .same Journal says, that allbastra is evacuated by the Trappist, and that the troops of Vulasea again occupy the banks of the Silica from Frar to Aridaguesa. Another battle was soon es.: .pected on the banks of the Segre, in the territory of °liana. It was 'supposed to be the plan of Lone'. to draw Mina into his almost inaccessible positions Arrest' and emigrations bays begun at SartigoPsa• PARIS, NOVEMBER 9.5. A private letter from Bayonne, dated the 19th, contain%what follows: " On the 17th, General d'Autichamp reviewed all the corps of our garrison on the glacis. This parade cost M. Welch, the Commandant of the 3d battalion of the 23d of the line, his life. He was thrown from his horse, dragged along the glacis, and received a kick on the breast, in consequence of which he died. " The Constitutionalists have detached a column of 1,200 men on Arragon, so that the forces left•in Navarre are scarcely sufficient to hold the Defenders. of the Faith in check, who are constantly making in cursions into that Province. Such is the importance given to the affairs of Catalonia, that all the forces are directed thither. " General Eguia left Bayonne yesterday with all his family, in virtue, it *as said, of an order of the French Minister; but in fact because his counsels, operating against the unity of the operations, might counteract the measures of the Regency. 6 1 We may consider the Committee of the Faith as dissolved, though four individuals remain to be em ployed in sending to Irati deserters and fugitives from Spain, and in forwarding supplies for the army, " The passage of couriers to and from Ikladrid is very frequent. The last dispatched by the French Ambassador left Madrid on the 16th. He states that all was tranquil at the time of his departure. In the Sittings of the 10th And the 11th, the Cortes dis cussed the project for the formation of foreign le gions, which was approved. The most perfect union subsisted between the Cortes and the Ministers." VERONA, NOVEMBER 13. The Slinisters of Austria, Russia, France, and Prussia, in concert with the Duke of Wellington, con tinue their conferences. There is reason to believe that the present situation of the Last, and the affairs of Spain, have hitherto been the only two objects on which the discussions of the Plenipotentiaries hare turned. The Archdulie Ferdinand d'Este, Military Gover nor of Hungary, is expected to arrive here shortly. It is positively asserted that the Emperor Alexander will leave us on the 10th of December next, his Ma jesty having determined to return to the capital of Lis empire in time for the Christmas festivities. It is said that one of the Emperor's Adjutant-Generals, who set out two days ago with, dispatches for st. Pe tersburgli, is directed to communicate his Majesty's determination to the Ministry and the Senate. It is generally believed, that independently of the definitive Resolutions which will emanate from the Congress, the Russian Cabinet has already adopted a definitive determination with regard to Turkey.— The Russians who are here concern themselves but little about the different subjects which are submitted to the Congress ; the affairs of the East alone fix their attention. The Greek Deputies having tmdergone at Ancona the quarantine established by the Pontifical Govern ment, have set mst, and are already arrived at Ala, a little town situated between Verona and Itoveredo. It is understood that, as soon as the Minister of State, Count Capo d'lstria, arrives, they will obtain permis sion to come here. Several parties have been given at the residence of the Emperor of Austria. The only Sovereign *ho was not present at them was the king of Naples,who does not find himself quite at his ease. . The Duke of Wellington frequently receives dis• patches from Mr. Canning, and his Grace iiequently dispatches couriers to London. ' Foxes *r PARIS, Nov. 25.—Five per Cents. 881.45 c.

The Turks besieged in Corinth lately made a sortie from the Acropolis, but were vigorously repulsed by Coloeotroni ; they re-entered after lasing 6000 men. At present they amount only to 4000, reduced to the hut eztremity, roW in a few days they will be
