T II E S U N. SOLILIA t u DI'Ci.itiI,FALSUNV.AUDEAT LONDON, JULY 24, iBo2. ,WE this morning received the Paris Paler: of the zo , :h inst. Letters from Brri:se/.1 say, that the CritEr Coy out. is daily expeCted there. But the time of his departure does not appear to be known in P ar is. ToussA:Nr has not been conveyed to Paris, as was stated ; tee still remains on board Le Hero, in Brest Harbour. All the Letters from Germany -are filled with speculations- upon the subjeca of Indemnities. The Politicians of rli,it Country furnish a new Plan of In, demnities - almost every Mail ; but the period seems to .he_approac:ling very fast, when all speculations upon this sui.jea. must end. The French Funds have risen to 54. f. 300, It was yesterday reported, that Mr. HILEY AD.. D INGTON is to have the Clerkship of the. Pells, va cant by the death of Co i l. — l-1 4RaE, but this we state :nerdy as report. In every company where the health of Mr. PITT it given, and it is given in every one that has any pretensions to Loyalty and Patriotism : it is received with a degree of enthusiasm, which does equal ho. nour to the Ex-Minister and to the People of Eng. land. At the Meeting at the London Tavern, on Thursday, of Mr. Alderman CURTIS'S Friends, the health of Mr. PITT was drank with a burst of ay. plause, which it was delightful to witness. Aldermen PERRINO, FLOWER, SHAW, and AINSLIE, were of the Company at the London Tavern, on Thursday, to celebrate Mr. Alderman CußTls's third return to Parliament for the City of London. We are authorised to say, that the article in .this paper of Saturday last stating, that Colonel IiAIs7GER • " is one of Sir FRANCIS BURDETT'S most aclive parti;tans in his canvass for Middlesex," is totally destitute of foundation, Colonel HANGER not having taken any part in any Eleaion contest, even in support of his friend Mr. Fox. The partiality of the Returning Officers of an EleCtion now depending, will be made a cause of complaint to the House of Commons, and it is the opinion of the ablest Lawyers they will be im ,prisoned, however the EleCtion may terminate ; one of them has the barefaced impudence to wear on the Hustings the favours and colours of the Candidate to whom he is partial—and says to the Eleetors es they come to poll, "How are you, my Cocks ?". Mr. justice BYNG, we hear, received from the ATTORNEY-GENERAL. on the Hustings at Brent. ford, on Wednesday last, such a rap . or the knuckles, as he w ill not easily recover. When Mr. ATTOR NEY' had given WS vote for Mr. iMAINWARINQ, Mr. BY NG asked him for his second vote ; Mr. ATTOIL. )7Ey however, observed, that he should probably have given his second vote for Mr. BYNQ, but for his association with Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, which ren,, dered it impossible for any prudent man, who wish ed-well to the Government of the Country, to give him a vote. In this sentiment, we beg leave to express our hearty concurrence with the A Imax r. GENERAL. Mr. FERGUSSCM the Barrister, who attends for Sir F. B‘.7RTr at Brentford, and who, we believe, made an attempt to get into • Parliament for some place or other this F,leaion, once pleaded his own cause in an ai.lion he had with Sir W. ADDINGTON. The late Mr, BrARcaoFT used to say, that when a man was his own counsel, he had a fool for his We apprehend, there must be some mistake in the account in some of the Papers, of what passed at Brelitford on Thursday, between the COMMON -SERJ RANT of the city of London, and Mr. RAW- L'Ns the Sheriff. Mr. SILVESTER had a right to interrogate the Voters, and, with a'l possible re s-ett to Mr. RAWLINS, we apprehend, that Mr. St t.v FSTER's education qualifies him to decide upon a point of law, almost as well as the learned She; - iff. Now that a complete coalition has taken place between Patriots of all ranks and denominations, we shall hear r more of the farce of blackualling a Citizen at the 111.7,:gAch because he belongs to the Correspoyding Sscu y.

Mr. Fox, we are &mired, was not induced by :!-Le persuans of his political friends to offer hitn_ self again a§ a c,indidate fur Parliament, as they well knee{ he fad determined on a system of .re_ tircinent, but by the intreaties of a Falr All), he Not Looi„t:LI, but limaly overcome by 4nOire NEW PARLIAVENT.

IT is with regret we observe this contest linger on from day to day, and the peace of the County thus disturbed. If Sir FRANCIS BURDETT has any strength remaining, why does he not bring up his votes, and if he has not, (which appears most probable) why does he not give up the contest ? In not adopting either of these alternatives, he is fairly chargeable with vexatiously continuing the contest, and disturbing the peace of the County. We are sorry to and, that on the small number of votes polled yesterday Sir FRANCIS BURDETT was seven above Mr. MAINWARING. This, how_ ever trifling in itself, will, we trust, serve as a stimulus to the exertions of Mr. MA.INWARING'S friends to give him a majority upon the Poll each day that Sir FRANCIS daises to continue the contest. —The sma►l number of votes polled yesterday were thus distributed : for Mr. BY'NG 84, Mr. MAIN WARING 70, and Sir FRANCIS BURDETT 77. At the close of the Poll the aggregate numbers were, For GEORETIYNG, Esq. 2925 WILLIAM MAINWARING, Esq. .2534, Sir FRANGIs BIJRDETT, Bart. 2032 Nothin4 worthy of notice occurred. It will give great pleasure to every friend of do. vernment, of Peace and good Order, to be informed with what unanimity that great commercial and populous County of Lancaster has returned its old Members, Colonel STANLEY and JOHN BLACK. BURNE, Esq. who have served it with unwearied zeal and attention in four successive Parliaments. A numerous body of their friends met them at Preston, and proceeded with them to Lancaster, where they arrived on Wednesday the t 4.111 inst. to dinner : the following morning, they appeared in the Shire-Hall, attended by nearly the whole Landed Interest of the County, together with the principal Merchants, iVianufaCturers, and the Bo roughreeves of Manchester, Bolton, and Salford, Szc. •&c. Colonel STANLEY and :twill BLACKBURN!, Esq. were again proposed to represent the County in the ensuing Parliament, and seconded in the usual form, after which, no opposition arising, they were elated amidst a succession of loud and repeated bursts of applaUse. "Ca. STANLEY then delivered a manly and firm speech of about ti keen mitfutes, which it would be impossible to do justice to, ‘vitht,ut a repetition of the - whole. Mr. BLACKBURN!, nearly overcome by feelings to which he could not give vent, rose, and expressed himself in a manner that did credit to his honest heart, and firm attachment to the Constitution. The business of the day closed with a string of Resolutions unanimously carried, the substance of which was, that a Service of Plate should be pre sented to each, as a token of resped for their faith ful discharge of their Parliamentary duties. On their return from the Eledion to Bolton, where they were invited to a public dinner on the 16th with their friends, they were greeted through every Town with loud huzzas. Four miles from Bolton they were met by Major PM_ KINcToN and about too of the Bolton Light Horse Volunteers ; their nearer approach was an. nounced by cannon belonging to private indivi duals ; about the distance of two miles from the town they were met by about fifty Gentlemen on horseback, with the CoUnty Favours in their hats, and an immense Populace ; their. horses were then taken from their carriages, and they were drawn at the rate of seven miles an hour, by ups , / rds of zoo Bleachers, all in one . uniform, .and cockades, &c. into the Town, amidst the reiterated plaudits of a numerous concourse ofspeaators-, to the Nag's Head, - Where they:received their friends with that polite ness for which they have always been so much distinguished. From thence they went in proses. sion with the Boroughreeve, Constables, &c. to, the Sessions Room, where an elegant dinner was pro_ vided, of every thing the season could afford. Many songs by Messrs. MEREDITH, BoDEN, jon.andother Gentlemen, Were sung, and amongst other loyal and appropriate Toasts were, the KING, QUEEN, and Roy At. YAM I L the Pilot that weathet'd the Storm, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, &C. The Niembcrs for the County being given, the Company were favoured with a speech hum each of them, ri vetting, if possible, more than ever their attach ment to ;hem. Men whose unremitting zeal in promoting the Ccmmercial Interests of the County for twenty years, and whose firm and unshaken loyalty to the Constitution has displayed itself during a period replete with events the most alarming to the peace o± the whole kingdom, deserve our warmest praise, and relied honour on the whole County, inasmuch 33 it convinces every one, that however Disaffec tion m:ly chirp, like the noisy grasshopper in the presence of the low ox ; yet it may be silenced, or perhaps, trampled upon, if it presumed to im pede the progress of Loyalty, or the deserving applause given to its friends and supporters.

" Our Herring-Fishing commenced on Monday last, and from the quantities which have been al_ ready caught, it is expeeted that the adventurers will this year be more than usually successful. Some Dutch Fishermen, who had been Prisoners of War, at Norman-Cross, were sent here last Summer, at the expence of Government,. for the purpose of teaching u 3 the Dutch manner of curing Herrings; and, although that method has not hitherto been generally adopted, yet, it is not doubted that very essential advantages have-been derived from.the in. struCtion of the Fishermen. The,Bri tisk Fishing Society, you would hear, have in contemplation the making of a Harbour at this place ; and as -the- pa triotic. Members of that ..lostitution are aftually using their exertions to get:the Society% Fttnds,in. creased for that purpose,- I trust that the measure will be speedily oar ricti into circa. It is confess.: edly art objets of vast importance, not only to this County, but to the Kin!niom at large ; and may we not, therefore, reasonably expea that 'an aid Will be granted by Parliament ?

Madame BoNAPARTE makes a point of addressing some part of her conversation, to every person in troduced to her. Her manners are extremely elegant and prepossessing. The Marquis WrI,LFSLEY Governor-General of Bengal, gave a public breakfast on the zsth of November, in his tents, to the Ladies and Gentle men of the City of Benares, and to the Officers of his Lordship's escort ; and on the z7th his Lordship received a Congratulatory Address from the European Inhabitants of the distria of Benares. The Gover nor-General resided, at Benares, at the house ,of Major-General DEAR E. It was in this city where the unfortunate Mr. Cirsitßy wis stabbed by the perfidious assassin, Vizi ER ALLY. On Wednesday Sir W. Etrotto, Bart. and P. LANGMEAD, Esq. the MeMbers returned for Ply_ mouth, gave a grand dinner at the New Guildhall, to their Constituents, nearly z 4.0 in number.— Several loyal and constitutional toasts and senti ments were given on the occasion, and some excel lent songs. The llforn;ng Post of yesterday contains the fol. lowing curious paragraph ;—" Among other calum. nies circulated in Norfolk, it was asserted that Sir JACOB ASTLEY had ill treated his Lidy ; ' in refuta tion of this, Mr. Cot E took her by the hand, and leading her :o the window of the Angel Inn, asked the spetators if they thought she looked un happy, or as if ill used by her husband ?" Had ' there been a doubt upon the subje6l, this hand-in. hand txhibition at the window must have removed it, and proved, to the satisfaetion of the Free. holders, that Sir jAcon was a good-natured man.
