In the early part of yesterday morale( the bustle en the Hestinp was by se means proportioned to the interest with which the approaching cooelesion of the melee is contemplated. Bet about two o'clock, deemed boom, as great as we ever recollect to have Mu it during any hour in this contest; the mem hers of which it was composed were sot, however, so quiet u they had been daring tit. early pert of the day. Several fights io cnneequesee took piece before the Hastings, and were followed by other in such quick succession, that we tuay almost assert, that from two till fear o'clock, not a single someM linefeed which was not marked by the cessation of , •e old and the commencement of a new bottle. The, noise was gets deafening, and can tasty be properly conceived by these who herd it. About a quartet past firer, the members were declared Is be as fol. low : !too. Mr. lab . 31.9 J. ii.truswos. Esq. ... 343 They were received with cheers by the friends of both parties. When these had subsided, Mr. Hosnouse ease forward to address the Electors. He opened his speech by observing, that the cause of the lode peed's, Electors of Westminster had gained a naajo. rely of 100 voters epos that day's poll, and would have been still sae seccessfel if the weather bad been lees teaspestams. He was happy to inform them, that there was still dams enough left to vindicate he U. berty of Westminster; cad he therefore could not we that say gross& were given them for despon dency or despair. The inconvenience of the weather was not the oily circumstance which had prevented his majority is limit day's poll from being greater them it actually was; a more efficient reason was to be fogad in the disgraceful meant which the party of their antagoolst had condom:aided to em ploy, In order to hinder his supporters from resales the Hastings. The mesas to which he alluded less the empint most of a gang of hired r 011..., who made a point of instates; every individual who appeared to be a supporter of the same sentiments with himself. —A friend et his own, a Mr Mosby, of Winspole street—[Here a Gentleman came forward sport the platform, and stood for some time with his hat off, as if toady to ennfirm Mr. Hobhoose's stateniest],— bed met one of them is a caw?, et no greet distance, snood with a battle-use, and vociferating most loudly " lamb for ever I" He had himself left two men in his Commitser-room, bleeding profaaely from the limeade whirls they had received from woe of tbosa fellows; the only offence which they had gives coalesced to haling cried out " Hobbes,* for ever I" bet this was oorreets for the maims who sarrnewded them--they bad so sooner tittered the words, than a cry was raised " Down •ith 'es," end a brutal •rtsek was commenced upon their persons.—( Load cries elf Shame, shone !)—H. amintaloed, that this was a 'sorsl of she regular practices which formerly used to direace the contests for Wessmioster, and at:pressed his firm cooviction that murder would, before the end of the present Election, be committed by so.- of those who were yogic d is them. The outrages which he had stated I to them, he was able, if necessary, to prove io a Court of lAw, as also who were the ruffian. that bad committed them, what was the place from si 'nth they ' Rad bees taken, and who the individual. were who had disgraced themselves by hiring thew. H e c ou ld distinctly prove that hie adversary, who bad posted on the Hestia.s a placard, stating that his friends would not in (stare be molested la their way to the poll, had done every thing is his power to obstruct the passage of all who were sot laclioed to vote with him. His coodect was a widths' of Sir M. Mal. • coodect during the last election. That gallant .Seer, at the time wise be knew that a hired gang I was parading the streets ander the command of Caleb Baldwin, sad tertrifting the prsceable Electors of Westminster, took so opportunity of saying that his I voters were intimidated by the friends of Sir Francis Berdett, and could not advance in safety to the poll. Such as assertion was entree at that time. end was *gamily destitute of all foantlatioo at present. Ile (Mr. Hobbouse) would not affirm that Mr. Lamb was acqesinted with the regular organization which bed taken place ; but if he was not, he (Mr. Hoblosee) could tell him where he might obtain information regarding it: he would not has. to go far for it, as he (Mr. Hobboese) should refer him to shaee Gentlemen who transact for him the dirty work of this Election. The par. tin engaged In it were Notorious characters; some of them were known to him (Mr. II obhouse) by name, and it was ~ nly to prevent accidents that he forbore to mention theta at the present moment. After ma lag some further abeereations on this bead, Mr. Hob bit's* proceeded to state, shot he did not know bow to reconcile with common sense the complaints which Mr. Lash's friends were daily uttering against , popular ascents, and the danger to be feared from raising popular Indignation against the adherents to any party. If, however, popular indignation bad been raised against the adherents of Mr. Lamb, it had bow raised by no invectives of his, but ley certaio vsal.procticrs of theirs: it owed its birth, I not to what he had said, but to what they bad them. mires doae.—( Loud clissrs )—lt was not his in. tendon to have detained them any long time during the primal oaf hie weather, had he not devoted it requisite to footles sons new Charges which had been brought against him by a Paper, which he should not denominate by any other title then the orgso of the Whigs. Theylrers as false as many of those which he had previously refuted; bet they were mere injurioes, because they wore sore intl. dious limo their predecessors. /The Paper in qaestien had accused him of a mis.statement in saying, that i while be was caevessiog Westainiter against Sir Messy )1.-swell, the Whigs did not Mir a single finger in his behalf. "Is this statement," said th eater, "gene sweet ? What I not a stogie 6.1g0• stirred is his rose? set • solitary Wlitig pr.,rri n ed him support ? Let biro recollect himself." He bad serer denied that be had some peonies of support from sera few of the Whip ; bet it was mall) tree Whiggish arpuseet to maintain that the mere pro mise of sappeet wee stirring a Seger in any san's cause. Thee came another insinustion, in the shape of a presties, which it gave him great pleasure to see that be sheeld Stable to contradict in the presence of Mr. imerbtoo. It was es follows—s , Hs it not happened to him (Mr. Hobbes's) since his speech end manifesto at the Crow. and Anchor Tavern, to hese had espissetions with sore has erne Whig, who Mb Ashy pseederd him support, before they knew his real sentiments of their party ? have era expostulations passed? No verbs! commanieations? No written *aimed teroous on his condact ?" This paragraph was calculated to help a lame minds, that bad bees propagated I. some of the daily Papers, that he had been called epos by Mr. lAmbron sad Sir Ronsld Ferguson, to give an explaeation of the words " Political Apostate," which it had bees said 'bat be had used regarding Lord Grey. Those Gentlest , . certainly had waited upon him, bat it was for a very different purpose to the one 'opposed. He appealed to Mr. Lashio. for the truth of this es *action. [Her. Mr. Immbron sodded emit.] He I was certain, before he made the tipple!, that Mr. Lasbton world act with the caodour which distio guished hid( on every occasion, and would tickers,. ledge the statement which he bad mode to be sub staotially correct. He had afterwards made a prig Sate cosmunicalie. to the two individual" whom he had before mentioned, bet he bad asked 'hue sot to act upon it, and to this request we understood him to say that they hod acceded. This was the only commonication which be had bad with the Whip; and instead of submitting to any indignities, as had bees smarted, none haJ even been offered to him. It was, therefore, nothing else hot dove- right malice which had driven the writer in the aroaide to give poblicity to such unjust, such en founded, such ridiculous etry' tritest him. Mr. Mobhoese then commented upon smother sentence,' which asserted that " he was net ignorint of the fact, that the Whip bad exerted themselves sec cesefelly to prevent say new Candidate from glen. leg against him ;" and af.er (keying that the Whip WI aide say rods esertllns, argued that, as he bed shelve the falsehood of theft insirstetioes, it war Ea. iseensery for him to do any thing more then give u emend demur to the test, sad to throw back the lasperatlon of falsehood sod malice or she heeds of those who had broeght it against him. lie then ptid, that he should not detain them any logger. except it were to urge this not to roles in tie esertion‘ which they had already made, end to guard, beyond all I ether things, against committing any breath of the peace. From whet he bad heard, he dittoed it his duty solemnly to recommend them to be tranquil, I and in spite of every taunt and insult, to trust eat to their own feeling, but to the lairs and °Multiage' of the country : if they did bus follow his advice en this paint, justice they should hare, if justice was wanted. as be was detetiniiied not to see the Eleztort oi Westminster bullied by any set of mercenary ruffisos. 'Fhe ronrlssion of this speech was welromed by a mingled shout of disapprobation and applause. Mr. Lusa then came forward, when a moss hide. ens tupelo immediately arose, and continued ell the time that he attempted to address the Electors. It was so g►eet, that we, who were close to him, could not distinctly hear slat he said. As far as we could understaed, be spoke to the following elect : As the Gentlemen before him did not seen, inclined to listen to his statement, he should schisms wh•t he had to say to those individeals who were clos► around I him. To them he could not help remarking, that the victory which their opponests thought that they had just achieved, was, considering the day of the week on which it had occurred, little etre than a signal defeat. His honourable antagonist hod talked mach to them about hired ruffs:t•, as if he were totally goikless of employing such people: and of the commission of neort:or, as if it were I crime which the Electors of Westminster cared little about committiog. Ile should net follow the Hon Gentleman into these charges, because be thought that their best refutation was to be found in their osn ab sordity. lie was sorry that the Electors would not hear the o►servatioos which be wished to make upon the other mentions which Mr. 11obbonse had pro. dosed against him and his potty, because he would pledge himself, if they would but attend, be would show that the doctrines which Mr. llobhonse advo. cated were most unsound end unconstitutional. In deed, hi 'species), that if he RIM allowed to ad. dress them on these points for sae fortnight, they would be more reedly to stifle his woke by hums, at the expiration of that time, then they were now to stile it by groaning end vociferatioo. The applaeses which Mr. llobhouse at present enjoyed, wooed this be turned into hisses and execrations, sinless, in the interval, he (Mr. ilobbouse) changed his tone, and Wormed how to become an Englishman. Mr. Lamb then obsessed, that Mr. lli.bl.ouse had not 11,11WITIPfl soy of the stalemeuis which be (Mr. Lomb) had pet forth on Saturday. Indeed, he had no doubt, that loudly as Mr. litiblmose now declaimed against the principles and practices of the Whigs, he wild not hesitate to profess himself an admirer of them, if such admiration ever appeared likely to serve his swims,. The noise here increased to such a pitch, that Mr. Lamb did not end to go on, but bowed to the tooltitode, arid wished thee good night. A s►ert pain tweed, and as ao other person kr! medittely stepped forward to edam, lb...multitude, title Jones edrouced upon the and ea. preessol. by Irony significant rotary', his Woodall, of barengoing them.

He ebeetreed, that he should hive adhered to the resolution which he had expressed on Saturday, hod he not foetid thab their adversary lost winds, by that marked iedigea. sloe with which he was always rervived when he came forward on theft Bootlegs. Thong► Mr. Lamb could net obtain an audience fres the., still by an spplicatioe to the daily Press he was ambled to Ms. seminal, them charges against them and their caste, which it was not It that they should allow to results unnoticed. He should, therefore, address a tow words it, them In reply to 14 asperdeas which bad been test upon them ; though before be did it, ha should beg leave to make a few observations au t►e character of him who had .bought proper to east them. That Gentleman had come before them under ouch a multiplicity if ibdeinite names. that it wee quite impossible for may person, even et this late period of the Poll, to tell spots what principle' he ram.. forward to claim the suffrages of the Electors of %Vest. Waster. He bad said that he was a friend to Reform on Sir Samuel principles, that he sea a friend to Reform on Mr. Fos'a principles, that he was a friend to &messy, (bet he was a friend to any thing and every th;ng; say more. that he was a friend to the poor, though he had emitted to state, what was very material to bit case, that he was a stilt treater Greed to the Poor Rates.— ( Lew Ihter.)—The Perm Remo, in Worn, were. very good frt i mit whi m , for if it hid not bee. for the uncmastitetional de. ti•in's which had disfranchised so many Electors for not paying their Peer Hetet. the nese of the Peepte would not be PO snitch behind-hand as it that day was. He hoped. however, that th• 'snivelled Elec. tors, even sf t ey bad not paid their Poor Rates op to the last quarter-day, would come and tender tneir votes; betas* he was certale diet those votes weld be established whenever they were brought, as they 'hoard be brought, before a proper *Ablest. To what. ever else Mr. Lomb woe ■ friend, he was not • friend to the Freedom of Election. This was seisiently evinced by the practices to which his had resorted. He (Sir F. Burdett) treated, however, that Westminster would not be bullied by a set of hired ruffians, aid that it would not be deterred by the violence of • Whig party, who were eager to re. new their ancient practices, from doing that which was consistent with its sense of duty: over these ob. stack.. Westminster ought to triumph, and ha had little doubt but that It possessed seihoimit spirit to declare that it was not to be sohdeed by them. It bed been brought as • matter of serious accesatiou against Mr. Hobbeum's CommitteP, that they had charged Mr. Fog with htvingomployed sholeace, and with having actuallpoccasinned murder, in one of that contests which he hadstood for Westminster: be would now appeal to them, •hether measures of outrage sod violence bad not beep-employed by the Whigs, and would ask them whetheadir. Hobbosse air& hiairelf, or Mr Limb and the Whir. were in the wronrkupor this topic.—Nries ef, The White ere Wrong.; —Ha maintained 'hat, though Mr. Latin/re might brand the conclusions which tee Report of that Committee sanctioned with its approbation, as false and injori. , ova calumnies, it was perfectly eistoriess, say, it was matter of record, that falsehood, bribery. end win ',nee, were formerly the only roads by which Gen. tlpmen attempted to gain the b of representing Westminster in Parliament. The lion. Baronet theta stated, that Mr. Lamb, in e- written speech which 'he had sent to the press, had mid that be (Sir F. Burdett) had o•igioaksy listed soder the Whig party; bet, contineed, the Baronet, though be may assert, the country will not believe ii.—( Load clve,tuz.)— lie (Mr. Lamb) had also said, that he (Sir Frio. cis Burdett) had professed ►imself the supporter of Whig principles at Brenifnrd. This showed. ' tech total igno f the daily newspaper. reading informatics, of the day, that it was unnecesirry to comment upon it for a moment ; and he should, therefore, proceed to the nest charge which Mr. Lamb had tnanefsetered egvinst nies—tbet of hae. ing deserted Mr. Fut. " I deserting Mr. Fos," said Sir Francis, with great vehemeece ; •• wh♦ 'ever enlisted under him ; bet regularly dennenced all enlistment into either party, because I sae clearly and prophesied niatinctly, that the memheri of both regiment, would be wanting to the Viet., of their country."—( Load applause.) Mr. Lamb bar!, how ever, said that h. had net deserted Mr. Foe till after his death. Now every body knew that he lost the represeetation of Middlems because he would not connive at the artifice" of the Whigs, because he had tienoenceel the coalition between Mr. Fog moil Lord Grenville, between those who professed an attach. meat to liberty and those who bad shown themselves its most implacable enemies. If, however, be had deserted Mr. F.. 2, be had him at a time • lien many of Mr. letarb's friend. would thought of deserting any party leader—at a time when he had knit been made Prima Minister. It was then, when a man who bad had any private feel ings to indulge, or soy Mier interest to gratify, would not hare allowed the geed deeds shah be bad done them in their adversity to remain forgottra, thi.t
