ECTING TH E FRIENDS OF.SIR. WILLIAM CURTIS. Pursuant to advertisement, the friends of Sir Wiliam Curtis aseemblartl at the London Tam" Bi , hopsgate-street, yesterday. to consider AO "Wei priety of inviting him to represent the Mims iI London in the expected new Parliament, and to adopt measures to secure tole return. in case the , worthy Baronet should, accept their invitation. There were about 4QO persons present, who appear ed, without exception, to be of highly respectable commercial rank. Ou the motion of Sir C. Ft.ownt. Mr. MAN. MINN took the. Choir. He was sorry that it was not filled by same Gentleman of the Corporation. It was to him - a oaalt ratifying duty, and he would do his binCto 'AIM it to their satisfaction. t was a great Oeesure to head so respectable and neaserous a usatiesg. The object of their 11111Cla. bling was tois well known to them to need any ob eirevations from him. He would direct the Reso lutions to be read to them. Mr. HALL read the Resolutions (for which see the Ativertisemest is defrost of this Paper.) • Sir C. HUNTER, in proposing the first Rrsolu lion, had very little to say which required their at tention. It was matter of great delight that their friend and fellow-citixen, Sir William Curtis, was reedy and grilling to serve them in Perliameut. It was a subject of congratulation with those who were anxious for that object, that a worthy friend and relation of his (Sir C. Hunter) was in the chair, whose private character woe so meritorious, and whose commercial respectability was so great. It was of the utmost importance that such a city as London should be represented by mess of great commercial respectability and experience. Sir Willions Curtis was a person most eligible,for such on office.• He was one of the oldest men in Parliament, and beyond question one of the most experienced and useful. It was well known, that a quiet answer turneth away wrath. Sir William Iliad. on many occasion., turned away the indigos. quo of Member., who 41 felt prejudice or auger oaring the City, by returuittg a soft wager. His ebariscter was in ell respects too high sad respect- Utile, and his past services ton efficient to need any commeudetioa. He would mover dig_ first X•••• lulwn.l Alderman Amos said. that it wetelaill beim* him to give a silent seconding to the Ritestetion. He was quite satisfied from his experienCe of Sir William Curtis, while he had the honour of serving as his colleague, that there was no person so qua lified to be their Representative. As long as his 'width would allow him, he was certain that Sir Nrilliuu would pay the most earnest attention to the high duties of that situation. They well knew that no one would fulfil those duties so faithfully as his friend, to secure whose return he promised the most cordial co-operation. He begged leave to• second the Resolution. Mr. BLACRNAN, a Bank Director, proposed the second Resolution. Mr. J SOU. ma as old member of the Corporation, and hoeing long been a witness of Sir Wm. Curtis's public career, could not refuse his humble services in assisting to secure his return. Never was there a time in which it was so necessary to have Repre sentatives of high mercantile character and experi ence. He would not take up their time its coin. mending the virtues of Sir William. He hoped never again to see the city represented by so few persons of commercial consequenc N othing could chew the necessity of having exiWienced and re spectable mercantile men in their representation so fully as the Assurance given him by his friend Sir James Shaw, that while lie was in Parliament, out of 365 slays contained in the year, he hod spent fell too of them in deliberation on the commercial strain of the country. He seconded the second Re solution. Sir C. FLOWER moved the third Resolution. Mr. DERS•NfRES seconded it. Alderman ATKINs suggested that the words of the Resolution should be altered, so as to make it a request only that the Livery would dispense with a personal canvass. It might be considered arro gant in the Committee to declare that there should be no personal maven. • The Revolution...amended, was carried. Mr. W•RD said, that the only sounds heard throughout the Royal Exchange, un the day iii which the rejection of Sir Win. Curiis took place, were cries of " Shame!" He moved that ti dep ts. tatinn, consisting of Aldermen Magnsy, Atkins, Sir C. Flower, Sir C. Hunter, and the Chairman, should be requested to wait on Sir William, and make known the wishes of the Meviiug. The CHAIRMAN said, that it had been thought advisable for the deputation to wait on Sir IVilliam Curtis. and leans his determination, for the oath.- faction of the Meeting before it dispersed. Ile hoped therefore that they would bald together till the deputation returned, The Deputation then left the room. Sir R. C. Glyn had sent au apology for not attending, but wished them success. During the absence of the Deputation. • Mr. Div)* said, that it was inconvenient for tradesmen to be doing nothing. He hoped for their indulgence while he filled up the thee. Much as h t 1...1ied for the return of Sir IVillians Curtis, there was a 'abject much nearer his mind. The arcrs. oily of high meresiatile character and experiersco to represent the mercantile City of Loudon, was Nis einem which coel4 not be doubted or disputed.

Re therefore thought that tlx votes should he to used as to secure the return of persists of diffesent sentiments from some of these who now represented them. He wished to be soderstood. The anti mesas of Aldermen Wood and Waitkissa were, in his opinion. objects of great danger, sod their conduct. !meat/err conscienttnesly they might have thought or acted, had certainly produced many unhappy consequences, *bleb they then were de ploring. Ile Deputation rows; after an absence of about kfiera minutes.: ..1 1 The CHAIRMAN hoped Shea the Meeting had slot sefk.red much iwesinsetsieeme from thie delay. - written •• The Deputation had brought back a . an• ewer, which Mr. Hall. having better bangs thaw himself, would reed to them. The answer of Sir WILLIAM (which will be found in the advertiaeme►►t in the front of this Paper) gave great satisfaction to those present. Sir C. PRICE said. that the unanimous seal and concurrence of the Meeting made it un►►ecessary to dilate on the claims and merits of Sir Wm. Curtis. He had undertaken to represent them, mud there fore the grateful task of securing his return now devolved upon his friends. He moved a resolution expressive of the thanks of the Meeting to Sir Wil liam. fo► his ready compliance with their wishes. Sir WILLIAM LEIGHTON seconded the Resolu tion, which wet put ■nd carried. The CHAIRMAN said, that the Committee would sit at the Tavern daily. Every thing would be put • in order for furthering the views of the Meeting. The district books. for canvassing, should be ready by Monday next. Sir C. Pato: moved the Thanks of the Meeting to the Chairman. Mr. MANNING returned thanks. ■nd said that his greatest pride lay in the respectability of being considerecta merchant of the great City of London. A gentleman from the crowd informed the Chair ' Man, that he lied been observing to a son of Sir William's. who wee present. how much it would gratify the assembly to see his father on the occe iron. That he had accordingly left the room, for the purpose of persuading the Baronet to make his appearance. who might therefore be expected in a few minutes. This intelligence seemed to give much satisfac tion; Sir William entered the room shortly after, and was received with great applause. The CHAIRMAN begged leave to correct an as. sorties which be had made, respecting the time of atimesesaiog the canvass, which, upon considers. • tan, would be postponed till after the fnueral of bis Majesty. Alderman ATKINS said that he hod a few words to address to them, which he would offer while his friend Sir William was recovering from those feel ings which 'their kindness had awakened in him, sud which, at the same time, must have the effect of pleasing, though they, for a moment, oppressed him. He - wished it to be understood that there was to be a Committee in that house open to all direct Mends of the Baronet, but not to he used foe the occasions of otheis in any degree. Ile did not wish the strong horse to be used to drag the weak one. They had perfect experience of that inspolicy. None hut friends who were disposed to do every thing for their candidate could be useful to them. In politics, as in every thing else, no man could well serve many masters at one time. Others might come and inspect their riches, but none should be allowed to taste them. He submitted a Resolution to the effect of his speech, which will be found with the rest in the advertisement. The CHAIRMAN could not consent to hold the Chair of the Committee during the business of the canvass mid election, but promised his utmost sup port to their labours. Sir W. CURTIS then advanced, and was loudly greeted. He said, " Your Chairman has done me the honour to read to me the Resolution by which you have called on me once mote to stand forward on the great stage, and declare myself a candidate fur the honour of representing you in Parliament. You all know my feelings and my politicsl sentiments so well, that it would be a waste of your valuable time now to speak of them. My time of life, and the long period in which I have had the honour to serve you, might reasonably lead me to seek repose. But those sentiments which I feel with respect to the political interests of my. country are superior to any such desire of tranquil. . lity. if you choose me, I shall act in my capacity' of representative as I have done before. I shalt. raise my voice, strong, even yet, but if weak, I shall . will raise my voice in support of that excellent.

The correspondence from Cadiz suffers no inter ruption. ‘Ve have the Cadiz Journals of the 31st of January. General Elio has arrived in Madrid from Valet,- tie. Ilia presence not being thought necessary iu Andalusia, he will return to Valentia. Letters front Bayonne of the Ist or February, confirm this intelligence. It is added, that Gen. Freyre advances very slowly, it being his hope tr. draw back the iusurgents to their duty without firing a shot. The insurgents have placarded the villages in the environs of Cadiz w;ili incendiary addresses, which were torn down by the people, with cries of Viva el Re. They have levied contri• bastions in the villages, which has turned the iu-, habitants strongly against them. (From Ike Joaral/ des Debris). The official accounts from Madrid are of the 271 h, these from Cadiz are of the iFid. The trooms are assembling under the orders of General Freyre to attack the rebels. A desire was felt to Erie blood. This is the only cause for retardiug hostile measures. Cadiz continues faithful to the Kirrg, and the inhabitants glory in their fidelity. This is ewe i truth.
