OCT. 4. The Sheriffs then declared the Hall to be adjourned till (the next day); and Mr. Sheriff Parkins said the 1 ..11 would co ttttt mice at nine, and continue ull three v clock. _ _ _ 'Ube thousands which had continued in the Hall during the whole day, then separated in the most quiet and orderly manner. Tau RSDAY —A t nine o'clock this morning the polling for a Lord Mayor fur the ensuing year was resumed at Guildhall. _ . Mr. Alderman Britlges, in person, thanked his voters front the hustings; but the popular Aldermen, whose isAnieS are pin in nomination, very salely left to the Leery the reception of their friends, and we did not ohserte on the hustings ally Gentleman who appeared in particular to represent them. The Poll having closed at three o'clock, the numbers were atiliumiced Alderman Thorp 709 Alderman Wood. 791 Alderman Bridges..... ...... 601 The state of the Pull was received with loud plaudits, and the supporters of the contending Aldermen several ly addressed the Livery. On Friday the polling again commenced in Guildhall, but it appears that tire exertions of the popular candi. dates have not been so successful as those of the friends of Mr. Alderman Bridges. During the whole of the day the adiatitage of the Mini .teriat candidate was ob servable; and it will be seen by the statement of the number., that he stands nearly 200 a held on the poll. The only nos cities of the uay were two or three placards, which were posted in several parts of the Lily. The following is one of them. : _ . " 5. Who voted in the Court of Common Council against an inquiry into the Manchester atrocities %—Alderman Bridges ! •• a. Who attended the secret junta at the London Tavern, called fur the purpose of overawing the Livery ?—Aldeunau Bridges! '• 3. Who refusal to recognise the right of the Livery to meet in Common hall ?—Alderi lan Bridges !" A copper-plate engraving, containing a representation of the charge of the Yeomanry upon the people at Nlaii chestier, was also displayed with this inscription— " Vote for Bridges and Atkins." Alderman Heygate, whosename was introduced on the list tu cutpapienee of his having recei‘ed two solitary votes, has expressed himself indignant on the subject, and carne down to the Hall on the (yelling, of the poll to insist that his 113111 e should be taken down. The secondary, and tither re turning officers, very much doubted whether they had the power of obeying the worthy Alderman's itiandaie. The name, however, was finally obliterated f the placard. At the usual hour the poll closest, and soon alter the foilowilm nunth,•rs were exhibited -- Mr. Ald. Britt4es Mr. Akl. Thorpe 146 Mr. Ald. Wuxi 1270 Immediately Alter the deetaranon ul thinumbers, the people in the lhll commenced a hideous and almost deafening hooting and howling, and the ttmmult was in creased to an almost institierable extent by the exultation olthe friends of Mr. Alderman Bridges on the hustings. It was sonic time before silence could be obtained. Mr.Sheriti Parkins etideavoured so restore tranquillity, by advancing to the front of Lilt bus:hogs, and by teat iirg t. Ins hand. " You hate hitherto," lie said, addressing tile people, " conducted yourselves most peaceably ane derly , and I hope you still remain so to the end of the election." But this interference had nut the desired effect. Mr. Alderman Bridges next came forward, and at tempted, but in vain, to ol,tain a hearing. He was im utedtately aosalled by hoots and blue*, tt Inch continued fur some militates. Mr. Alderman Bridges again presented !Muse".., but was unsuccessful as before. lie was only heard by a very few around him, to deciare that he felt no animo sity or ill will to any gentleman on the oilier side of the question. Air. Thom peon begged to observe, that what Mr. Hunt had said yesterday, respecting himself, was perircily correct. Ile hail read nt one of the journals, that Mr. Haut had di..clanned all connexion with I it was very true that that gentleman, whom he respected for his conduct at NJ atichesier, had no connexion with bun. This was the only explanation lie wished to give. The Hall was subsequently adjourned in the usual way, nuts Saturday morning. Lirearoot.

BOULOONE, SEPT. 28.—0 n Sunday last a brig from Rouen, bound to St. Petersburgh, running befiire the wind, jibbed; and on coming to the wind she was upset by the violence of the squall, and of 21 persons on board her, only 12 were saved. The captain, mate, and others, in number 12 in all, in cluding a young woman of 18 years of age, got into a small boat which hung over the stern, and cut her adrift just as the brig went down; they had only one oar, but made a sail of the girl's petticoat, and ran for the land near Etuples, every moment half swamped; and had they effected their object of reaching the coast, they must inevitably have all perished: providentially, one of the large lugger, was in sight, and bore up immediately, and took them on board, and landed them at this place. Ratko dam, Sep. 23.—A few days ago an English man-of-war tender belonging to Chatham arrived here, having on board a night life-buoy invented by Lieutenant Cook, and being a present from the British Admiralty to the King of the Netherlands. Lieutenant Cook accompanied his invention, and explained its ase to Rear-Admiral May, the Naval Commander and Commissioner at this place. The Admiral, by command of his Majesty, expressed to Lieutenant Cook the pleasure with which his Ma jesty received this present, and at the same time presented Lieutenant Cook with a diamond ring, as a mark of his Majesty's approbation of this useful invention.

His Lordship disclaims the fran tic notion of universal suffrage 1 annual parlia ments ; but rebukes in terms sufficiently pointed, the " breathless haste witlt which the Ministers " have prejudged this Manchester question, while " calling others nut to do so."
