The only answer he mode to the i n dignity was a low bow—and, at r sulasequeso period, wheu.filth war thrown towards him and lii• friends, he stepped forward, on the outward railing of the hustings, ex claiming " that he was not afraid to throw himself • in the midst of his countrymen!" In the course of the day, he was repeatedly accused of bring favour able to the system of flogging. Oar of the seamen, however, who served under him, was recogiriped in the crowd by Sir Murray, who immer3itately called on him to come forward. Sir Murray Maxwell said, .1 There is one of my seamen—ask him what my conduct has been." The tar advanced—and, clamhering up the railing, cheered his old Com mander with great cordiality. A Novel Officer, who bore the brunt of the day with Sir Murray, .desired him to state to the people whether that Gentleman had ever behaved with undoe ity to a seaman—or withheld his pity ? To which the tar replied—" I sailed with I long, and a better or a kiiider officer never commooded a ship." At half-post four o'clock, the numbers were de clared u.

PITT. and Mr. RICElhabSOl4, jun. on . the part of Sir F.ancis Burdett, called on the Electors na m Ike the most vigorous exertions, in order again to send into Parliament Sir Francis Burdett, whose conduct, during a lot% period, Was marked b y the moat armour desire, seconded by talents o f the first order, ta place the rights of the people on their proirer fartinlation. Mr. .V tsit A RT, at the organ or the Committee or Sir Samuel Itotnilly. thanked the Electors for the strong mark of catilidence which they had this dry given to one or the moat etunietat characters of the age. Ile was a native of tVesiminster 1111111 of cousioninate talent —and, in the Senate, he had always proved himself to he the true friend of the people. They must rejoice to see a man poasessed of Ins abilities representing them in Parliament.-- They most It see admired him, when they ;Harked his mislaid application of throve talents to the cause of the people—when they saw him dumb founding Ministers by his reasouing—and putting to fight their. veinal supporters. No instance could Ise pointed out, in which he had deserted the cause of freedom ; anal, if he c. sine into Parliament by their exertions, no man would be more ready to lend his assistance in bringing about that just and true It •I•rm which alone avoid save the country.— (Appliare.)—Sir Samuel Itomilly wanted nothing from G arernineut. Could any man be foolish enough to suppose that he who had realised a princely fortune by his own exertions—who had, neverthelese, devoted a great portion of his tune to the service of the State—could it be supposed that such r nom would be swayed by mean or improper motive. ?---(Applause. f—Sir Samuel !waste life was as praiseworthy as his public one was beneficial. It would be highly honourable to I.ls fellow-citisens, if they gave Sir Samuel a seat as the Senate, and he hoped the men of Westmin ster would not forget that he had been burn amongst them. Mr. P. WALSER said, he never thought, and Le did not then think, that a miaurity was a dis grace.

Imam of a majority with those imps awl 'wider, of power, who rioted on the people. spoil and flaorishell on the people's ruin. These were the men who caused the majority this day—these were the men who would divide the national spoil between them. The people had had enough of it —anti it was high time they should be masters its t . .e.r own house. There might be some shades of rldference in the opium's of those who deemed re. harm neces-ary—but the great object they were all contending for was the purification of the Corn. Imniv . 'louse of Parliament. Let nut Gentlemen b • discouraged by the issue of this day. There e ere iB,ooo Electors in %Vestittinster, and of that ari nbaa. but very few hod yet polled. The event of this day ought not to guide the opinion of the Electors. 'that event was produced by *thins long laid, and ready to be acted un—plans connected with Treasury influence. The poll, on a future di, would shew a different avert. The eyes of uli England were on the Electors of Westmiuster— sod he called (anthem not to abandon the venerable • supporter of their rights, Major Cartwright, whose principles were reiterated by the voice or millions. Mr. W. C. hut said, he thought it his deity to a hires. the Electors so behalf of Sir Samuel Ito. imlly. for the purpose of removing certain nista eourable reports that had gone •lirood respecting him. It was asserted, that, if Sir Samuel were nut returned for Westniiiister, he ',mild be sent into Parliament for some borough of his own. This was not the case. Sir Samuel had no borough. He hoped the present state of the poll would not cwt., tiny in in to relax Ind efforts. for idocing this celebrated character oil that prowl eminence which merits clearly entitled him to. Ile trusted the Electors would east he led away by mere report, of the characters of the Candidates—lint that they would di.crisoisrate between the. I Gentlemen now before them, ■nd snake their election as cou science dictated. Mr. HUNT then addressed the people briefly. They saw what the state of the poll was this eve bbbbb g. He entreated his biros.* to come forward wit hermit ; if they did so, on Mondry next his rotaries.* might see the state of the poll with dismay. He emitted them fur their unanimous approbation of 'mu this day, and took lease of them for the present. Mr. GALE JONES ettributed the success of the two Caudidates first on the poll to the exertions and influesice of individual friends. They might now exult in their success, awl ridicule his friends; but, before the Election was over. Mr. Hunt might cause them to tremble. He hod no doubt, how ever unpropitious the commencement of the poll was, the result of it would hr glorious to the cause of freedom, and disgraceful to its adveraisries. That might have the apprerence of victory, which was, in reality, but the straggle of men in despair. They had not solicited s siugle iudsvulurl. Lest groundless despondency should be the conse quence of to- lay's proceedings, he insist observe, that the bu.iiirss was not properly began yet. Mr. Hunt had only acted the put of o prudent General, in not bringing Isis whole force into action at Once. A lesson was taught by the result of this ddr. —tAt this lime much Imaginer warn excited by ;he unexpected apprentice of a sweep, who had contrived to elevate himself above the crowd near to where Mr. Jima.* spoke.]—He slid not know whether that was the effect of accident or design, hut lie wanted no better proof of the, wretched con dition to which the people of England were reduced by tile conduct of their Representatives thou the appearance of that unfortunate boy. Ile exhorted them to imitate the independent conduct of thr Electors of Itrestminster, in placing Horne Tooke .hove Sir F, Burdett and Lord Hood—and conjur ed them to rally round 11r.

SOUTHWA KS ELECTION. Yesterday morning, at half-past nine o'clock, the Election of Members fur the Borough of South. mirk commenced ow the hustings, in front of the Town Hall. At eight o'clock, as Sir Robert Wilson was pro. ceeding in 6i. landau to the election, he wee met at the Asylum, Westmin.ter.road, by a large body of electors, wearing light blue and purple cockades (the colours or Sir Rolled and Mr. Calvert), pre. ceded by a band of music, and two men carrying large purple harmer, on which were painted, is Wilson, the Friend of the People." and " Wilson and the Independence of Southwark."

Hall and Wetherstusw) by a circuitous route to the hustings, amid the acclamations of the people, the bands striking up, " See the conqueriug Hero comes." Mr. BARCLAY had privately arrived on the hust ings a few minutes earlier. A friend of his imme diately introduced Sir !When to Mr. Barclay, the rival candidates, mutually exp►essed great p ersona l ►espect for each other, and expressed au earnest de sire that the contest should he conducted on public grounds. Sir H. Wilson assured Mr. Barclay thit both himself and adherents would do all in their power to guard against ally thing like the intrudac tion of perm:Wily, and to conduct the election with the utmost decorum. Mr. CALVERT arrived shortly after, and was re ceived with great applause. At half-past nine o'clock the HIGH BAILIFF. at tended by Alderman Sir J. EAMER, ordered the Pre cept for holding the Election to be read, a n d took the usual oaths fur his impartiality. &e. Mr. Barclay and Mr. Calvert were on his right haul, and Sir R. Wilson on his Irft. The HIGH BAILIFF tlwn earnestly exhorted the Electors to conduct the business they were about to enter upon with drcency, impartiality, and decorum. Mr. SOLOMON Daetxs came forward to pro pose Mr. Charles Calvert, and was received with g►eat applause. Ile observed, that when his Ilon.
