MUM), MAY IS. .0.11■=•• 14 Prises Fides." There is no* no doubt that a general elcc , inn will take place in the course of the present pear. On every side are sounded the note. of preparetion. Addresses abounding in assurances of respect and gratitude—declarations of lofty independence—awl profesei eeee s of zeal and attachment, are scattered through the country with unsparing profit-Wit.— Amidst the gMseral bustle, Cornwall, which has the supreine happineis of possessing twenty-one Bo rough's. reposes in almost undisturbed tranquillit, We get through our business like expelienceit trailers, who know the value of the commodity we have to dispose or, and will not waste time in chef. feting. The patrons of our close Boroughs Nye fixed on their men—so that their retainers have no thing to do hut to meet, approve, eat venison, and get drunk with toasting the iiiiniortal memory of IVi!ham Pitt, and success to his legitiinate sum.. e. tors, Lord Costlereugh awl Co. Our open Bo roughs, in which tire electors to:de on their 0.01 account. are as well acquainted with the curretit price of a seat in the as a broker on the Stock Exchenge is with the kite Consols, or the premium on Exchequer Bills. All they desire is good men, according to the mercantile acceptation of the term ; further they inclitire not. In fact, we do rot know a single Borough in Corn wall, in which the political principles or clittracti r of the Cendtiletea form a question with the ,lectors. In our dose Boroughs, all these matter. are left to the patron ; in nur open Boroughs they are never thought of. It is net, therelare, surprising, that whilst some of our mitemporariee have been appeet. ing to the patriotism of the electors, within the limits in which their publications circuilitte, on the sacred chi! y they are soon to he called on to per. form, that we have said very little oil the suhjea.i. To address ourselves to the patriotism of our borough elector., would be to call upon the dead. There may he, and we htlieve there are, a fete honeet-intentioned individuals amongst them ; hut these know their effort' , would be wholly mote:tiling were they to attempt to stem the torrent of sulser vient venality by which they are borne down ; and we have no wish to torture them by mimesis which they cannot answer, or exhortations which they are unable to obey. A correspondent lately requested us to publish the oath against bribery. under the implied sanc tion of which every elector in the kingdom g iv e s his vote. There is not a pot-walloper in a Cornish Borough who is not fully acquainted with it ; nor is there one who wonlil not as readily take it as he would sit down to an election dinner. or pocket In lam, whilst the system lasts, it is mere waste of words to address the h ((((( ug h e l e c.. tore of Cornwall, on principle or patriotism ; thete is lint a peasant or miner in the county who would not laugh at the idea. Borough-rooligesing is net susceptible of amendment ; it is a gangrene whose excision alone can restore the body politic to health. Far different is the state of the case Is it respects our freeholder,. The two parties that divide the county, have. each a representative of whose pewlesice they rtuly justly boast. Of the venerable Sir Lem , it is unnecessary fir us to speak ; his private virtues need no euloginin ; and his high independence, and undeviating integrity, through a lon g public life command the respect t f those who diff er with him in political opieioit, and will ever secure the grateful attachment of it county which he has lung and so faitlifJlly served. As to general policy. we indeed differ with Mr. Tremsyne, but it is due to him to say, that in private snit in public life, he is most rispectable ; his indepen deuce is above suspicion ; nor can there be a doubt that his opinions and conduct result from limiest conviction. Such representatives do honour to the choice of the freeholders of Cornwall ; as possessing thut high feeling of integrity, which should aver be found in those to whom are committed the wort sacred trust of freemen.—/Traro Paper.)
