But he wot:It1 tell theist against what and *loom It was 'vireo — it was directed, against the paramount question of Iteform in Farr) itnent—against the high po pular character of Sir Francis Burdett. If they dared speak the truth, this was the reel cause of their hostiloty. They 'reined to countenance the attacks which were made from the corner of the hustings, oil rl.ays when a !serum appeared there who was nut now to be seen. Then it was that, in the mitticipation of his success, the Whig Camlirlate, in mock condolence, had said that be was really sorry to see the lion. Baronet seetn to lose so much of his popularity. Ile (Mr. Hob boos.) would sty nothing of the extreniit modesty and delicacy of an young a man winding the Iwo ple with a want or gratitude, and attrouptiog to be the triornithant instrument of pulling down the firmest flute of C2l, years t ottriotisist.—(tipplause.) — Ile and his ft lends would one day rue the attempt they were now makiiig to depreciate in public esti mations the matt who was not only by the voice of Westminster. hot by the voice of the whole people of England—the acknowledged Atfiro cote of ppular Sentiment. The Whig party had no right to come here on popular pretexts to cast delusions 1111101S1: them. lle thought the other clay, when he stw a placard with the words " I.npnb and Liberty," how impossihle it was to pith together two more iitcolignions wursls. lie knew not what their n otion of liberty was who would act in this manner, but in eery qtearter to which he went, he heard eiothing loot perpetual complaint% of the infs. Ellints Manner in which the Electors were com pelled to come up to the poll, and vote against the dictates of their consciences. lie knew not what they called liberty, but lie knew that the independent Electors of Westminster would never apply that name to an attempt, on the pact of the great families of Westminster, to lord it over the people, by depriving them, on so iin portant on occrsioa as this Election, of the rght of nominating their own Representative. There was one importatit question which ought to be decided before they came to the poll—he meant the question respecting the exclusion of those voters who had not paid tip their Rates. The decision of the nigh Bailiff, in this respect, unwonted to a dis franchisement of the particular Electors. This decision was had urns his own preceoleitto, and the authority of two decisions of Committees of the flause of Commons; but it ought to he rrcollect ed, that io the Shaftesbury case. in 1812, a dtf ferent demi 4444 had been had. It was surdy very absurd, that when the King's Officers were armed with the power, and hail the opportunity of dm training for arrears of Pour's Rates, they should also be invested with a power which hail the effect of disfranchising the Electors. Disfranchisement was not a legal punishment fur the non-payment of at debt due either to the Crown, or to an individual. It was not to he tolerated, that such a result should follow an arrear of Poor's Rates. The pressure of the tunes had, in fact, considerably diminished the means of the people to pay taxes, so that the cor ruption which had canted these taxes, and created the deplorable tlefalcat . availed itself of its own act, to disfratichtse the Electors who were unable to hear sop against the difficulties it imposed. Ile meant to impute no blame to the tax-gatherers; they wear, of course, obliged to °key their supe rior officer. Ile had only, in conclusion, to beg they would beta the opposing Candidate. It might be deemed prealunidttuus and arrogant for him to make this appeal, fur he recollected such epithets were applied to a similar attempt made by a friend of his in the late contest. He, however, felt it his duty to make tills appeal to the good sense of the Electors, and to entreat that they wool.' give a fair hearing to their opponents.--(Applause.) Mr. Laws said, he wished they would at least suffer the cry of " Lamb and Liberty," of which his opponent complaiutil, to prevail tot the qualified form of 1.4n010 and Libeity of Speech. Though the last hour bad been stormy, the monolog bad been as tine mi his opponent wished yesterday, when he told them that all he wanted to enable him to head the whole poll was a fine day. Yesterday he represented himself as short in Ins expected !Min im's, because the morning was hail—to-day, be cause the evening is so. Su that it is impossible for the berretta themselves to please him. Toe poll had to•day heen sit his own favour, but the bat tle was slot woo.

It was some (Jaya since be had been able to address them, an that he had been prevented from proceeding in the study of oratory with their attention and his opponent's tuition, as lie hail promoted early in the contest. Ifowever, though his opponent had fur some days had it all to himself, and had been able to advance what assertions and arguments he had chosen u ncontradicted and unrefisted, still he had nut been thought entirely c petent to the office of his own trumpeter. Some old Muniments have toren dragged forth in complete the conceit of his praises; one, no putirsolior, had pl.iyed its old tune* over nod over with unusual selwinetic• ; but, thotigh its touts were formerly highly approved brie, the metal has ilow been thought itosoutod, and moony of the notes Gler.—/A snowball vf ennsideraide dimensions here sainted the speaker.)—lie had been accused by his op, ttttt eta of wont of modesty in his mention of the Ilimitiorattle Barimei. This, in deed, comer well from them who had employed themselves before thus Assembly, when they knew nobody could be heard its answer, in revil ing all that has for years been mknowklged to be patriotic and praiseworthy among the laving and the dead ; our could lie fail to admire the mots Jetty of hoe op t 00000 solo, who would represent the popularity and pnhucrl eminence of the Baronet, whom he so highly paw prised, its wholly depending on his own success on the present contest.—(Here noose noise and anose6isils.)...lle perceived how cow.

By Order of the Coati of Director', J. PE.ODER, Sieretary, Sir F. Buttcti^r came forward, and was received with great applause. He said that after the elf,- quent +speech or Mr. Hobloom, and in the present state of the weather, he would detain them but fir s few moments. Ile could nut this Jay congratu late them on the state of the poll; lie could so r t congratulate threw on the success of that cause which they were endeavouring to support ; Isttt Jive could congratulate Mr. Lamb at riot being on the saint hoard with the unseemly cumpanY with which he appeared to be associated on former days. He did onicerely ontigratulate 31r. Land) at the absence of a panicle& of so disreputable a character. Fie now returned him that heartfelt condolence which he offered to lion on a former occasion, for the loss of that popular iiillirence which he did him the honour of uttribulieg to him. If he really hid lost the good opinion of his CllllO. trymen, he felt it very unfortunate fur bu t irelf. He thought it possible that by delusions and arti fice, end misrepresentation, the good opinion of the people may be taken from any swan. 1;111, Crod forbid he should alter that course of courluct, which he believed to be honourable and correct, lest he should lose for the mimeo a little of his popularity. Nutwitlistandiog the delusion of the moment, truth must in the end triumph, at d the greater would be that popularity, which war ultimately found to be deservedly and honestly earned. Truth should never be in awe of pilot lardy. Fie stood here daily to ascertain the lac', whether lie had in reality lust airy part of the good opinion of his countrymen. file oleo stoisi here to spew that he was not afraid to meet an ~pro twiny —to thew that he was ready and willing, ii. the fate of the public, to a n swer any charge or any i v ies. bon which could be uttered iii Iris piesence. Ile was always really to exploit' his publ c conduct In ally way in *hid' any Elector Could wish or ilasiie ; lie was 'away' ready to explain the public prifict ples which actuates! the public corislitet he thought fit to pursue. A Mr. Bowie hail yesterday brought ch:trges against him, which though out heard by the Electois were published in two of the 11 Papers.—(Cries of " 111 r. Bowie it a Turn-soul."/ —lie did not know any thing of Mr. Bowie, trot the chari_tes were not made by a turn-coat—Or y were made by Major Cartwright. Three ( l ocations hail been ion to Rini. The first was, oily li- sup posed the Major did not wish to he put ill noirivia tion ? The second was, a hy he -unposed the Major's election could not be canted in West minster ? A iid the third, what 'mations she Major countenanced, which from his own kiwis he knew to have been falsehoods, 011 Mr. Cubbett As to the first question, all lie had to say was, that though the Major had been in nomination in three places, Thetford, Nottingham, and Boston, lie had no reason to kriuw it was his wish to be in imoo noted—and even the fact of nomination did not imply a desire to be a Candidate. That honest tool able mon, amid true friend of his country. Mr. Horne Tooke, had stood as a Candidate our these hustings, nut with any notion of succeas, or ati.r• desire to obtain it, but merely because he isislitil to expose the juggles of faction, and assist that great principle of Reform, to the mainteirance of which the whole of his long life had beau de voted. He had never heard, nor had he bad any rea son to know that the Major ever wished for a seat i Parliament. As to the second question, respect ing the probability of the Major's soccer'', if lee were a Candidate, he had been asked his optiiinit by the Electors, and lie had spoken it honestly— that lie thought the Major stood 110 chance of son cess. This being his opinion, lee thought with this Electors, that the more advisable course sus to ..o urinate any wan who hail a greater prospect of stir. cess than the Major could possibly expect to cLari mand. So much for the second charge. A. to the third, namely, his observation that the Major "'multi have beta above countenancing insinuation," which he knew were groundless— " He replies, that be has not done it, sod that he is above either baseness or duplicity. He iberrtire rbeilencis hint to sustain his imputation by proof. The Nlsjoes 'Auld* and arguments are before him." Without going into particular circurnstariceu us necessarily, all lie (Sir Francis) would say, was, that Mr. Cobbett, in las writings, had charged Ism with bring concerned in inaiimuvres of eveiy kind with the party the writer called the Rump —wit.' paying Mr. Cleary, as the agent of the Rump, for his services in promoting his object—with tun g a man fur gettiog up a forgery, or a pretended for g e.l letter. Now Major Cartwright knew that at lite time Mr. Cobbett spoke of, Mr. Cleary was his (the Major's) private secretary ; and that lee (Sir Francis) had no connexion with the inflisidrial. When the Major fanifil 110 much of Alr. Cobbeit's accusations to have been false, lie might, wile., lie noticed such circumstances in prim, have sail s e , and lint taken that course, which, he to an insiiiitatrim that souse of Virtu %%ere .e -I in truth. Warn lie, therefore, was Wllstooll tacked, he had a right to use such weapons mil fence as appeared to himself most proper, and the Major had no right to complain of the expresaiim of his regret that the calumniator had the lientlit of any thing likeshis countenance. 'rite Major according to the statement in the Newspapers, had said that lie (Sir Francis) had— o Very incorrectly stated what the Major raid shout li.lll Duke et Hid it, whose conduct hr did indeed hod ire as a salutary beacon, fur warniuß .he Baronet against rel.t- Jae Ole the ruck upon winch the Duke's ieuttlation suriCrr.l shipwreck."

IV EsTMINSTER ELECTION, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY U. TENTH D.Y. STATE OF THE POLL. Polled Ilan day. Grate Poll. Hon. C. Lamb J. C. Hubbuuse, Esq 261 Majority for the Hen. G. Lamb 361 At four o'clock the crowd in front of the hust ings was, as usual, very cwisidenible, sti , l were chiefly amused, iii the absence of any placards worth notice, with tossing about on their heads a drunken orator, who was vociferating something about the purity of election. The stoner at this time came down in such quantities, that the heads of the crowd presented one extensive white sur face; but the pelting of the storm seemed to make no impression upon their feelings, and they waited with patience, notwithstanditig the drenched state in which they were in, for the gratification of the mental treat which they expected to receive from the popular orators. The orators this day had (except Mr. Lamb) no pity upon them, aud forgot during their speeches, which were delivered from under the cover of the hustings. that the patient multitude were enduring all the disagreeable sensa tions which a snow storm could impart to then). Mr. HOBIIOUSt: came forward, and was received with great applause. Ilia said, that this was a bad day for the Electors in more anises than one. The state of the weather during the last hour had been co bad us to prevent, be was certain, many of his voters front coining to the poll. Wheel lie told them yesterday that lie anticipated sit accession of strength to his interest this day, he was not aware that this was a holiday at all the Public Offices, and, therefore, all the retainers of Government had Bit opportunity of going about to Canvass for his op ponent. tie was nut then aware that a power ful interest was at work against bun, in what were called the lower parts of Westiniester. Ile knew the Coalition would stop at nothing, and he supposed that the persons whom they had this day brought op were the saute whom Mr. Lamb its his advertisement of to-day hail called the fiends of real freedom anal indepentletice. It was to theirs in particular that Mr. Lamb had directed his ex hortation to come tip to the poll. By thus calling on the friends of real freedom and independence, he presumed that the Whig Candidate enema to call all those whom the people foalishly conceived had been for some years upholding the liberties of Westmin ster, as the advocates of slavish independence, and among whom was their !lon. and worthy Represen tative, Sir Francis Burdett. They therefore had insinuated, that he was returnei by the false friends of freedom. The chief merit of the Whigs, as he supposed, must cousin in their opposition to the Mtuisters. He should therefore be glad to know why the W big. now came forward to oppore the turn who had so Wog fought their battles for them, and who had redeemed the character of Westminster siace the period when the whole power of the Whigs was only able, after perilous struggles, to get 11l one popular Member. The people of Westmin ster had, since 1807, returned two Opposition Mem bets. How was it then, that the people who had effected this salutary change, were to he d "- stated by the ‘l'ltigs the false friends of freedom ? Ile could only account for it by supposing that the Whigs were jealous that this great achievement had been obtained, without their being consulted during its operation, or without their essistance in the completion of the object. It was •for this that they objected to the independent • Electors who re turned two Members, who, though not in their re giment, always sat and voted at the sitar side of the (louse. Was this the treatment which they had a right to expect I the Whigs, after driving the Court Candidate from the field ? For the last three months the people had been actively engaged, they had driven the Couit Candidate entirely from the contest, and at die moment when they had secured their independence, the Whigs treacher ously came in to rub them of the fruits of their victory.—This was the plain statement uf the case.—(Cries of 6' Yes," and " IVe." —On the former occasion the people made their utmost start, stud made it with success, to exclude the Court Candidate, without any aid from the Whir; REFORM OF PARLIAMENT.
