GENTLEMLN, AT Four o'Clock this Day, when the Poll closed for the Freemen and acknowledged legal Free holders of this Borough, we h:,,d , the satisfadion of seeing -the number of Votes in Our 'favour . considerably higher than those for our opponents. At that hour thirty 7 five Voters were introduced, who have acknowledged themselves to be most perfed strangers to you, and who Came frorn London and its vleinity, upon the avowed and 'premeditated scheme to deprive you of your FranchiSeS. • • • During the course of the Ele&ion, Mr.llotland and his Agents had prepared us to expel these Strangers, - and had intormed us of a new contrivance to make their Votes valid. Fully apprised of thisintention, - and well aware of the de— pendent situation et the Returning Officer, we are 'not stir prized that tjiese Votes, which a Committee of the House of Commons, in 1791, pronounced illegal, were now suffered to foil ; that Tribunal. would not Permit personS of the most: exalted rank and character ; to makeconveyances to serve the purposes Of an, Eledion; and .we, look forward with the utmost confidence, that a Committee of the New Parlia malt will not now stindion a measute - wtich, in 5791, was deemed fraudulent and illegal. , • Alt. Holland, in his Address to you this day, congratulated you on 'his Suaess. We conceive. on the contrail - , that :to the legal Voters it muss prove a subjed of grief and Mor tification?' that there is. not a single independent Freetnan Among y.cni, who, after witneSsing the scene dif• this Evening, can lay his hand _upon his heart .and not regret the Vote which he has given-in support of this•Gentlemv ; and that every Freeman must feel, that, at all future Elediens it must be a meremockery tosolicit iiis,Vote, it, after he NIS given ' it, an indefinite number of dependent Tradesmen are to lie brought from ,L01K1017,, to out-number' and dilate to the legal Yeters of this'Borough. We beg leave to retuhi your our most sincere Thanks for the - sopport which you have given us, and to assure you, • that no effort of burs shall be wanting to vindicate your Rights betbre a Committee Of the' House of CommonS ; and that, whether we are succes - qfu I or nbt, we shall ever retain a grateful remembrance of the flattering and kind- reception we have met with at the Boroughof Okehampton. • ' We have the Honour to be, Geritlernen, Your obedient and obliged humble Servants, P.

'nits morning arrived a Dutth and Hamburgh Mail. By the former we learn of an affray at Flushinp in consequence of the French sei z ing an English Cutter laden with British goods, an as which the Inhabitants of Flushing were about to resent and, resist in a very serious way, had not the good condu4 of a IVlais•trate succeed ed, in appeasing them fora time. This little inci dent, however, she ws pretty clearly, that there is not a very good understanding between the Dutch and French People, whatever there may be I;oetweep their Governments. The PRINCESS of WALES left fawn lost night for Blackheath: His grace the Duke of PcmTLANI7 attended yes terday at 1.,0rd Hawkesbury's 9flice, as did the Earl bf RosLIN.- We yesterday copied an article from The Tittles, stating the intended resignation of Sir EyAs NE_ PEA:, and his being succeeded by Mr. TUCKER of the Navy Office. We now learn ; that theie is no foundation for this Statement. It wasjonN HARV Ey TUCKER, Esq. the eldest Son of the Honourable JAMES TUCKER, of Ber muda, and not HE'..•TRY TUCKER, ',Esq. as stated in a Morning Paper, who was called to the Bar some days ago, by the Honourable Society of the Middle Temple. The expences of keeping open the Poll for West minster amounted to about 801. a day for each Candidate, which must have proved 'in more respels than one, extremely inconvenient. During the 'late leetion for Westminster when ever the Mob saw a man come up with a clean shirt or a good coat, they immediately began to hiss him, as they knew there was no chance of his voting for Mr:GRAHAM ; 'we must do the, Mob the justice to observe, that not a single instance occurred in which the event did not justify their apprehensions, • The French Papers announce, that Mr. Fox is on his road to Paris Dr.HiRCIIELp, the great Astronomer, haS been eleAed a Member of the National Institute, ' A most extraordinary circumstance for a Republic, is. announced. from the -}-1,1,pc, viz. Citizen-VI-. TR , INGA is appointed President of the War Council for life. Three Vessels, richly laden with the Produaions of the Isle of Java, have arrived at Amsterdam. A Letter from an Officer at tile Cape of Good Hope, dated April 14, .concludes with saying, f.' Two Botany Bay ships have arrived this day from England. During the passage the Coriviets rose, and endcavdured to get possession of the ship, by which the:crew were compelled to fire. Some of the'Convias werelilled, and several wounded. It is reported that some of the persons transported from Ireland for sedition were on board. The report that the Duke of BEDFORD is going to reside a few years on the Continent, for the pur .pose of Retrenchment, cannot be well-founded. If it he indeed necessary that his Grace should reduce his establishment, in order to clear away incumbrances, occasioned by the noble hospitality and public spirit of his late brother, it is easy to make suitable re trenchments in this Country. This Country might still be benefited by the residence of his Grace, who would of course be held in the highest resped for such prudent arrangements. His friends would still enjoy his society, and his expences, though in a. cuntraled scale, have a patriotic dire6tion. Mf. WINDHAM was strongly invited to stand for the County of Norfolk after the Dissenting interest overthrew him at Norwich, and had a very fair primped of being eleded, .but relinquished his pre tensions when lie positively understood that Mr. WODEHOUSE wished to offer himself. This matter has.been erroneously stared in the Jacobin Prints. Mr. Wnstb'HAises Eledion for St. Mawe's was not the reason which induced him to decline standing for the County, but his unwillingness to thwart the canvass of Mr. WODEHOUSE. The - 7//422a s of Mr. WINDHAM'S new Constitu ents cap digest what the Eleetors of Norwich threw of in iz fit of the' spleen. The complaint of Sir FRANCIS BURDETT'S Ad vocates against Mr. MAINWARING is, that he is a Friend to LAW and JUSTICE, while, on the other hand, they want to substitute Lic ENTloustlEss and ANARCHY. The late terrible commotion in Hertfordshire, which has thrown the County into great confusion, was occasioned by a Young Larnb unexpeetedly ap pearing at the liustingi, on the day of eledion. It has been thought very appropriate that the County of Essex should be represented by a Bullock. A Dissolution of Parliament has been improperly called, a Dissolution of Partnership ; for in Parlia ment every Member rests upon his rictus: bottom.' Many people entertain considtrable apprehensions that the popUlar Party will gain too great an acces sion of strengtli.in the next Parliament. We see no reason for any fears of the kind, for it is perfettly well known, that the (wildest animali may be 'made ljarmiess by proper 7,-;attagemen.t. ,ATEW PARLIAMENT, MEMBERS RETURNED.

CITY OF LONDON ELECTION, Yesterday a Common Hall was held at the Guildhall, London, for the' purpose of returning four Members to serve in the ensuing Parliament, when the Sheriffs declared the Eledion to have fal.: len on Mr. Alderman COMBE, Mr. Alderman PitCa, Mr. Alderman CUATIS, and Sir J. W. ANDERSON, Bart. and Alderman. me. Alderman Cuturts came forward and said, he had a third time to thank the Livery of London for eleEting him to represent them in . Parliament.--- When he addressed them at the conclusion of the last Parliament, he' fully explained to them what his political opinions and principles were, and it was extremely gratifying to him to ;find the same sen. timents were entertained by them ; that such were the opinions of the.Eledors, had been proved_ by the very Cordial support he had received upon the present occasion. He loved the :Peopl; he loved their Liberties, and venerated the Consti tution ; but he felt it his duty to declare, .that though he would at all times preserve their inde pendence, he should also maintain his own.; he ne ver would set up his own opinion against that of the whole Nation ; hut he would gn into the House of Commons unshackled, where :they might be as sured he.should use every possible exertion to pre serve their Rights and support the Constitution.- Mr. CU RTIS'S speech, notwithstanding the opposi tion made to every other attempt of his to speak dur ing the Eledion, was• on this day received with marks of strong approbation. Sir 3'. W. ANDERSON next returned his thanks to the Livery. The choice they had made 9f him, conveyed to his mind the strongest proof that his political condud was sandioned by their approba tion, and he askired them, that he ,should most steadily observe the same line of conduit in future, and manifest the same teal for their interests, and those of the Country at large. • Mr. Alderman CoistnE felt it altogether unne cessary to say any thing of his political' principles. The manner in which his Eletion for the 4rst City in - the world had been concluded and concluded, was a sufficient testimony - that he •had given gene ral satisfadion to his Constituents: Mr. Alderman PRICE, in concise terms, express ed his gratitude for the very distingui,hed honour they had conferred on him, by placing him second on the poll. He wanted words, he said, to express stifficiently what he felt. He should ever attend to their instruaions, armed with which, they would ever find him a zealous supporter of their rights, and of the true interests of his Country. • Mr. KEMBLE proposed a Vote of Thanks to the Sheriffs for their attention, &c. during the Elec tion, which was unanimously carried, and ordered to be printed. The Meeting was then adjourned. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM BERWICK, JULY 12. q You will doubtless be surprized at hearing no accounts of our Eleelioi - 1, especially as we know the 'Writ was sent from London the ist inst. with' all expedition, but as it has not yet been delivered to the Mayor and 'Bailiffs, we know nothing when the Eledion will take place.—The Town is full of Freemen from London and other distant parts, who are very anxious to return home to their wives and families, and express, great dissa,tiladiou ,at the Writ being so unwarrantably detained." The Election for the County of Cambridge ended on Tuesday. At the close of the r 011 the nu►nbers were, For Lord CHARLES MANNERS - 1941 Tie Righr Hon. CHA4I.E3 YORtE 1435 The Hon.

No words ca express the triumphant-joy and exultation wi t h which this addres9 of their favourite candidate was received by the surer rounding multitude; Th.tae w Members were then chaired. The populace insisted ,upon taking off the horse.s from the carriage of the Dutchess of. RUTLAND, in which also was the Dutchess Dowager of RUTLAND ; and their Graces, drawn by those who were thus eager to testify their joy, fol lowed the Chairs, which were preceded by severar hundreds of Gentlemen on horseback, a Band of Music beingstationed immediately befo r e the chair of Lord CHARLES stationed * The Procession moved from the Hustings (tvhich were •built in le large field near Emanuel College) through Bridge etreet, to the Castle Hill ; from thence part of the Way back again, up Trutnpington,street, as far as Pembroke Hall, and returned by Union-street td the Market Hill, where it ended. Throughout the wink way every window, in every house, wa., crouded with speEtators, mostly Ladies,, all of them • anxious to 'proclaim their unfeigned satisfadion oA the occasion ; and never - was joy more visibly dis played on every. countenance.

Lord CHARr.Ss MANN.E,I7.B adjourned to the 'Hoop • Inn, where an entertainment had been provided for a party of 'his- Lordship's friends.

We sincerely wish that a 0 the remaining contests may, terminate in a manner equally amicable. Many very extraordinary contests have appeared during the present General Eledion t but that for the County of Durham is-certainly the most singular. —Mr. BuR Dor; some time ago publicly declared his intention of retiring from Parliament ;it the General Elettion : several of the principal towns irs the County have since applied to him to offer him self as a Candidate again for the County, which he still declines to do : the Freeholders however are canvassing with great adivity to elect him ; such a proof of the attachment of Constituent:, to a Represen. tative has seldom occurred in the History of this Country, Sir GEo.S4v LLE and Sir JOHN BARNARD were fent to Parliament by the County of York and the City of London in much the same way. This proof of sincere attachment to their Representatives is a more honourable record, than if they had crated their Statues in gold. It is a' genuine mcrk both of the in dependence of the Eledors, and of the sterling worth of the elected. A Letter from Coventry, received yesterday, says, " The Eleftion at this place, it is supposed, will very shortly be decided—the zeal with which the cause of Messrs. JEFFE RI'S and BARLOW is taken up, exceeds any thing ever known in Coventry, and has, perhaps, scarcely been equalled any where- Out-voters are flocking in from all parts ; more than an hundred have walked from London—the car riages of individuals are sent out in all diredions to bring' them in, and they are most hospitably receiv ed into the houses of the principal people of Cover).- try.—An immense number have this instant arrive(' in coaches and six, and post chaises, attended`by a vast concourse of people on horseback and on foot.''
