I ed the boating+, and 11* common ctcer read the proclamation egoists% bribery ; the usual oath against collusion with sny of the candidates, was then taken by the High Bailiff, and the precept for the elect read. After this ceremony was concluded, the High Bailiff called upon the electors to put in nomimition two fit sod proper persons to represent them in Parliament. Mr. SOLOMON DAVIS then stepped forward to propose Mr. CALVERT, and was received with loud applause. He said he was glad to see them so cheerful. He had had an idea that there would be no opposition to the reappointment of their old Nlembers. but he now found himself agreeably disappointed. It seemed that their opponents had at length, after a number of disappoint / news, go t H well-known Baronet to come forward,—(a laugh.) —He should like to know what were the polo'. cal tenets of the Honourable Baronet, on which hr foui,ded his claim to the confidence of the electors of Southwark.—(Hear, hear. hear.)—He bad been introduced originally to their notice on the back of the Aristocracy, or rather of the rat. of the constitution.—(Laughter.)—He then turned round on his supporters when he got into Parliament, and became a Whig—lie had now re trograded arid become a Tory.—(Applause.)—To what was he nest to turu ?—(A laugh.)—He was at all eventa the last man that he should expect to have seen on these hustings.—(Some interruption.)— fie was lint surprised at this interruption, fur he knew he was touching upon a sore part.—(Load applause )—The Hon. Baronet had, in fact, no political tenets on which the independent electors of the Borough could for one instant depend. He did not mean to hurt his feeling., but he could not disguise this opinion of his public character. The electors knew full well those who had supported the Corti Bill, a measure which. fortunately, bad not in its operation produced the oppression that be longed to it. The Hon. Baronet was, he knew, u great commander-in-chief, but be (Nlr. Davis) now confidently anticipated that he would be cast siway on the Mist arnils.—(applause.)—The worthy Gentleman tit proposing Mr. Calvert as a fit and proper person to represent the Borough in Parlia ment, tools the opportunity of paying an eloquent tribute to the public character of that Gentleman, who t• •,s a atraight forward man, if he were not. he slimild not have his support. If ever the lime came (which he could not anticipate) when Mr. Calvert heroine a turn-coat, he (Mr. Davis) would turn his low k upon him.—(applause.)—He concluded by propo.iii;: Mr. Calvert, and begged to set the ex amide et giving that Gentleami three cheers—a which was heartily complied with by the riretor2. Et.Lts, in seconding this motion. repeated the tribute which had been paid to the public con duct of Nlr. Calvert, who had long opposed in Par hament the extravagant and profligate expense of Ministers. He took a review ef the different men who lied represented the Borough when it was a ministerial place, and stated that Mr. Calvert was the first man who turned the scale, nod asserted their independence.—(oppleuse.)—Their example lad had its influence: it was felt in the City of London, it was felt in Westminster, in the county of Surrey, and indeed all over the country.— (Hear. hear.)—The Ministers had had iu min the three warnings of death to induce them to alter their policy. They had the warning of France at the time of the Revolution; they had the warning of South America, and, lastly, of Spain. He said this all a word of caution to men who were persist iii a career which could end in nothing but the tuna of their country.—(applouse.) Nlr. C LYSIIT came forward, and was received with the warmest applause. He ssid, he should he ungrateful indeed, if he did not take this and every opportunity of expressing his best thanks for the iiiiiform and repeated acts ef kindness he hail re ceived from the independent Electors of South wark. Thanks to the public press, his Parlia mentary conduct was regularly before them. The press was an engine which preveuted any man, whatever might be his iodination, trout concealing his public conduct ; the Parliamentary reports of the day rendered that impossible. The Electors had reposed in him a confidence which he trusted lie had never abused.—(tries " No, no.")—He never attended a Town Hall, without receiving sonic mark of their approbation—sometimes singly, sometimes with his Hon. Colleague. He could now have tin inclination to swerve from the path of duly which had secured to him their approbation. lie had hoped, indeed, that they would have beet' saved the trouble of a contested election; not than ht thought so high a prim u their choice con ferred should he easily had ; he did not like to see any body walk over such a course. This was the third time he had met the Hoo. Baronet at their elections, and lie remembered that the last time the lion. Baronet designated him (Mr. Culvert) as a hat of blood, and himself (Sir Thomas) as an old stager. but one who was broken down in their service. The Hon. Baronet, however, now came forward in good condition : he supposed he had lately been at grass, and recovered the use of his lonlas—(LuNghter and applause)—at all events, lie was sure the electors would not find him bro. ken-winded. He was satisfied the Hon. Baronet would find that he had not their confidence. He (Mr. C.) had no pretensions to become prophetic, but he could not help telling the Hon. Baronet now to his face, that where he on the last occasion got , 20 promises of support. be would taut now get one.—(applouse.)—He kiwis that he would not bring down the Hon. B.iiouri's displeasure by say tog so ; on the contrary, he thought he war his 'mist sincere friend in giving him this proof of his candour. The Worthy Candidate then referred to his own Parliamentary conduct, and regretted that the question of Reform had not been more di.tinctly brought under docession in the last Par hament. He pledget himself to bring it plainly f,rv.ard in the next, if no abler man (lid nut pre or copy the ground.—(applause.)—Although lie had voted for Lord John Russell's motion, it did out go the extent lie wished, for he desired to see every borough in the country represented as Southwark w a n—he desired to see all men with votes }v ho paid direct taxes.—(applause )—Hr noilerslood that the Hon. Baronet contemplated blending out a week's poll---this he doubted ; at :all events, he would not occupy_ their time longer, bud make way for the Hon. Baronet to State his damns for their support. The worthy Candidate, - slid loud cheers, thanked them for the high honour they hod done him. Mr. ‘VaTasuroox, iu rising to propose Sir Robert IVilson, said it was the bounden duty of the electors to select men of known integrity, and he thought they could not pitch upon a better man than the gallant ■nd patriotic indivi.lual whom he had just named. —(applasse.)—The claims of Sir Robert Wilson stood How upon the firm haste of their own experience. They had wen his psrlia memory conduct fur the lest twenty-one months.. Was any man amongst them to he found dissatis fied with it ?—(Cries of " Not one.")—He had always shewn himself the friend of the people and the stern enemy of cortuption—he had grappled with the mon►ter, though he could not overthrow Reform was. however, making gigantic abides, and it could not, fur any great length of period, be successfully resisted by the minions of corruption.—(applarrse.)—Sir Thomas Turton now ventured to thwart the views of the electors. He had last night questioned him in vain upon his poli tics. It was injudicious in the friends of tl►e Ron. Baronet to put forward a man who was a bankrupt in public principle--a man who came before them in all sort of shapes—a Whig, a Tory, any thing.— (applusse.)—The worthy Gentleman then reviewed the conduct of the last ea►hiament. and alluded to the circumstance of Lord John Russell's motion being curried in the House of Commons, although it was lost in the Lords. Sir Thomas Turton last night avowed himself the friend of all the odious Bills that had been passed in the la►t Parliament. —(Mingled cries of " Yes." and •4 No.")—What had been his conduct in Parliament at the time he was their Member ?—did he not speak against the Education of the Poor ?—The worthy Gentleman then read the following from a placard : " Sir T. Turtou's Speech iu tbe House of Commons. on Mr. Whitbread's Bull fur Parochial Schools, on Tuesday, August 4, 1807. " Slr T. Timms repeated many of the objection. he bad before urged against the Bill. He thought the lower orders would not be much the better fir being taught to read, and was still more averse to teaching them wilting and arith metic. He thought instruction of this kind more calculated to make them dissatisfied with their situation, as they would be reading the Newspapers, and other inflammatory pro ductions, which would prove highly injurious to them. At the time of the mutiny, an Hon. Admiral had assured him, th.l ln mischief had been dune iu the fleet by men who could read, having an opportunity of reading Newspa per., Arc. to those who could trot, between the decks in the gulig-.ray. He was nu enemy to education, but be thought if one in ten of the lower chimes were to be instructed, that would be sufficient !!!”--(Muth dioapprobefioit.) Such selainiesits were surely only worthy of the dark ages, roil the man who held them could have Leer thing in common with the electors of Southwark.— (applonse.)—The business of the government of the country was carried on by half a dozen very power ful fainilies--there was uu respoosibility like that required by the Constitution. He had rather see the King invested with the absolute authority of the Dey of Algiers, than see such an oligarchy as this prevail. It would be better for them to depend on the acknowledged humanity of the Sovereigu, thou upon the moderation of such a set of Manners as these. The Borough had set an example which had been felt by the whole country. They had given an impetus to the people, and had acte d like a pro pelling power in the cause of freedom. He coo eluded by pronouncing a warm pariegyric upon Sir Robert Wilson.—(Great applause.) Mr. HITCHCOCK seconded the proposition of Sir Robert IVils ))))) und lamented that the election was likely to he contested, when they had two holiest and eflicirot persons to serve them in Parliameat. The conduct of Sir Robert Wilson was before them—he was uniformly at his post, and known to be a steadfast blend of Returns. Let Sir Thomas Turton make a similar avowal of his priuciples.— (applause.) Sir R. WI i.sote came forward sod was loudly greeted. It was now, hie said, nearly two years since lie hail first the honour of addressing them front that spot. Ile was then a comparative stranger to them. and could only offer profession.; he had now to appeal to his acts in their service, and it motor them to say whether he had executed with fidelity the duties they bud imposed upon him—(Applaase)—it was for them to say whither be had redeemed the first pledges he gave them.— (Cries of " You hare!")—He thanked them for the spontaneous and flattering support he had urn formly received at their hands, which convinced him that they did not think he had degraded or betrayed their trust.—(Greut applause.)— Since they had returned him to Parliament he had never given a single vote un which he could now look back with regret, and which was not, he trust ed, in unison with the best feeling, and interests of the country at large. His ambition at all times had been, to have it in his power to say to an enemy, " If I am unable to contend with your power, if 1 sin baffled in my fortunes in opposing you, you have yet been unable to deprive me of my honour."—(applause.)—Until lately he had uo idea of meeting au opposing candidate ut thos elec tion. On Saturday last he had paid his respects to all elector who was uow all egeirt of the Honourable Baronet (Sir T. Turnip), and on 'whetting his vote received this reply : " No, you shall not have my vote; set up the Devil, and vote for him sootier than give you my support."--(cries rf ie A apte Aim," and " Mr. elation," were vociferated ) He (Sir Robert) felt no reireirtment on the occes , and why rhould lie ? fur they all knew that the De vil was a great friend to the gentlemen of the Wog robe.—(load laughter.)—He was greedy pleased when lie found that this Devil whom the worthy elector was deternsisied to set up, was no other than the worthy Baronet—(great larghter.)—oho would not, however. lie hoped, be aisle to play the devil wish their interests and liberties.—(load up plause.) —lt had been asked, what were the advan tages they hail obtained by the acquisition of their independence ?—where were the fratowvlsich followed their victory / —hod they the effect of diininirlong the people's burdens, or of reforming the Legisla ture ? To this he would reply, that the electors of Southwark had at least set the example of doing their duty. Was this nothing? or was it nothing to say that they at least had nut contributed to the oppression of their country—the( they had nut mg. graveled her misfortunes. or still farther diminished her liberties? Was it horning to forewarn Minister, of the evil effect of their course, and to entreat them to avert the catastrophe ? If their Nlignabers had acted otherwise, see what a load of guilt the electors must have drawl' down upon their heads. When he ell tend the Muse of Commons, he saw its table load- - • -nEtestmilPo ed iiritti petitions for a new Corn Bill ; with thehe he sod his Hon. Colleague grasped, end pat an end to the contemplated measure. Did they think that the agricultandists had dropped the Corn Bill ? He mild assure them they had not, for he held in his hand a letter addressed to him from one of the grind agricultural bodies soliciting his support to each a measare. as reply was, that he believed greet agrirolttiral distress prevailed, bat they hid mistaken their remedy, which, in his oliinion, could only be.found in a diminution of rent. and currei poisding reduction of taxes.—(applaase.) —The next measure, while he was nt l'arhimenr, was the Foreign Enlistment Bill. fiJd their Members uppo r ed such an Act, they would have assisted in the rrestiblishment of the most odious tyranny that ever degraded mankind. They had, hOwever, grappled with it, and iii some respects rendered It nugatory, so that not only had the sacred cruse of liberty extended over the wide regions Of the Western Hemisphere, but Spain herself be. came sensible of its influetice.-1--(opp/surse.)-- The next measure was the Bill for the three mit lions of taxes. Had their Members supported that, the Borough would have incurred the guilt of draining from the impoverished pockets of the peo ple, at • moment when thousands of them were petitiouitig to be transported from their native soil, in the hope of tindiug that relief in other climes which they vainly sought at home.— (Hear.) —The next, and by far the most important public ques tion, was that of Reform. It was the most para mount of all questions; indeed, every other only received its value as it promoted What said the anti-reforiners ? They fifilellitft the notion that Reform would work the miracles assigned to it by the people. Rut would there be nothing in having a House of Commons so constituted as to he the organ of the people's will, and of their in telligence mod integrity ? That House would then have their ccinfidence.—(Hear.)—How did it stand now; they knew that out of 658 Members. 487 were elected by the borough putton;—not the pa trons of such n borough as Southwark—world to heaven 811 the boroughs were like that !--fGreat applarse.)—Out of the 487, there were 71i who went into the House of Commons to receive among themselves and their connexious 156,0001. a year of the public money.— (Cries of 'a Shame !") They were hacks in the Parliamentary stable, always ready to answer to the Miniiter's whip.— Latighter.)—No wonder that a House so consti tuted should have lost its character with the peo ple. The Acts of the last Parliament attempted, Not to make the people unlearn what they had ac quired, fur that *sag impossible, but to prevent their childreu from learning, in fact to brnielizr them altogether. The Acts to which lie alluded effected even horn-books, even the gingerbread A. B. C.'s could luirdry escape.—(Laughter.)— They were to be considered as seditious publica tions. Such a course of legislatiii,c was a violation of the great principle of nature, which commanded education, to ttachthem to be just and free, that they should he moral and happy.—(applause.)—A poet had said— • " Where igeorsece is bliss, 'tie folly to be wise;" but he' never meant to convey the notion, that to be a blockhead was to be in the road to lieppiness. He (Sir Robert) whew he *vowed himself the ad vocate of Reform, meant no Reform which could alarm the most timid, but which would embrace the great bulk of sOciety, and make them better and happy—a Reform which would give • liberal extension of the right of suffruge to ell who pay direct times, and which would abolish rotten be. rough., end shorten the durstion of Parliameuts. —(app/nave )—The efficacy of the last was ehewn by Ministers themselves, who though they had so compliant a Parliament as the last, were afraid to develop, their new measures to it ou the eve of a dissolution, but reserved them for a Parliament of seven years growth. Notwithstanding all that had been said, the cause of Reform had made great progress, even during the last Parliament. When he brought forward his motion to transfer the right of election from Barnstaple to Leeds. he had only 15 to vote with him. Since that they saw Lord John Russell's motion, which included the trans ler of three other borough., pane the House of Commons, though in another place they were lost in what war celled the Hospital of Incurable...- 11e hoped, however, that those incurables would he soon brought to their reason. The next question was the Manchester one, in which, in unison with the feeling that pervaded the country from one cud to the other, inquiry was called fur into that atro cious proceeding. Blood had been shed, and in quiry was called for. The opponents of that in quiry were enemies of the law, which said, that 44 whomsoever sherldeth Tale/ blood, by man shall his blood be shed." Was it to be tolerated, that 420 Objects of this country should be killed, woui4d, and maimed, and no inquiry he had into such a trunsectronl—(Hear. hear.)—The worthy candidate here read a paragraph from the report of the persons sent down to administer relief to the sufferers, from which it appeered, thst of the 420, 118 were womeu—(Cries of " Shams P') —of the whole number 130 had sabre cut., and of there 14 were females.—("" Shaw !")—Noiliing but a regular inquiry into that horrid affair could ever blot it out trona the anode of this country's history. A public writer had said that he would publish the list of subscribers to the Manchester fund, to hold them up to infamy. Let him do so ; for so far from his (Sir Robert) thinking it an act of infamy, he glo ried in his name being upon that list—it was to him a roll of honour, though a melancholy one as it affect ed the country.—(Great applause.)—The worthy • Candidate then referred to the part he took against the Acts which authorised the nocturnal invasion of an Englishman's house. and related the atrocities to whiJi such a measure led ins Ireland. He repeat ed that lie persons should forcibly enter hie house at the dead of might, or expose any of his family to dishonour. Such thiage, which charecterised Mi nisters ns a government of destruction, rather than of protection. touted not go on long. With re. spect to a late proceeding, and he would 'peek with caution of it, es the men were yet to undergo trial, he thought it ought not to be ascribed to 'rational vice or national depravity. It should miller be considered as a despe rile spirit which - was store the result of intsgo. comment. Violent acts of arbitrary power, marlr der similar violence in other quarters. .It was slot We King, nor his Ministers, that had led to this state of things, hot the love servility of Parliainent, which had quitted its trust and unlimited the frame of civil society, which made the pfollr usau look with distrust at the rich, and cite versa. Let them hope that the new relicts would prove the era of a new spitem—(Hear hear)—and that they should live to see Old England mice more the land of hap. piness, of cbrerfulae•s, and presperite. His ambition was nut so much to he milt to Parliament, as to be seat there by iodepetoleat men, orb„ hail no other object than the public good. He repeated hi■ thanks to the electors, sad swim, them that the moment it was ever bus inisfortnee to differ v ith them no any great piddle rpostion, be %boil.' instantly risign ties aeat 11140 their hands, dirtilit he bare t►e honour of being re-elected as one of their repremoistives ire Parliament.—{ Great applause,' Mr. SURER came forward so propose Sir Thomas Tor. ton, and had at lint some di:Scotty in oblaiaing a hearing. He warmly praised the polder col duct of Sir Thomas. which was always dictated by a pure mind, untrammelled by party connexisios. He hoped .that the elector* womb' not now suffer themselves to be dictated to by a junta, but woahl elect a maw who claimed their suffrages oo Ire broad basis of his attoeliment to she Constioutioa. He assured them that Sir Thomas had met with the utmost success in his canvass, and he had uu doubt would be eventually the watt of their choice. Mr. INEOHHIS seconded this pi oposition, and said that if they elected Sir I'. Torten, they would bare • Member who would *either be resented by a aoheervicary to Ministers, or a blind attachment to Opposition. Sir THOMAS TORTONI then came forward, but was for a short time unable to obtain a-bearing; when he at last suc ceeded is procuring silence. he said, that be sever in his life set • better humoured set of men before • huatiap, or ease which be should so oitirb like to hove the honour of repre senting in Psrliameot. They had in the course of the day been told of many faults which he hod, and which he had not. For the two other candidates be had ou other sou. allocate than those of great respect. Owe of them (Mr. Calvert) had used a witticism la represeuting blew to hare said eight years ago, that he was broken down in their ser. vice; not coateuted with being a wit, be bad also became • prophet. Now they knew that prophets were as often wrong as right, and he believed that Mr. Cslvert would prove • false prophet ; for blood as he was, he assured him be should give him a hard ran before he gave op the chase. Of Sir R. Wilson he could nut speak hut with great respect; if he bad any fault, perhaps it was that in his career of inde pendence he souseuipses overstepped the leiunds of pru dence. With respect to the speech which bad been quoted as his (Sir Thomas Turtun's), thirteen years ago, he would say that that report of it was false. If Mr. Whit bread were alive, he would bear him out in this contradic. Lion of it. The Bill then alluded to had two clauses; use of which was, that every ass, whether he were willing or not willing, whether he could spare his child or not spars him, should send him to a parochial school. He objected to this clause as an invasion of the right which a parent ought to hold of educating his family just as he thought proper. The second clause was to *Rix a rate of Is. in the pound fur this education. This he also thought too arbitrary. As to the story of the Admiral, it was pare fiction, sad the only part of the Report which bore any resembleuce to what he did say, was, where he was described as stating that he thought the instructioa in decimal fractious, and perhaps in the higher rules of arithmetic, not quite suited to the lower classes. But he utterly denied his ever having avowed him self au enemy to their education ; he was, on the contrary, a Vice.Presideot of their Auxiliary Bible Society. He hoped they would have the discerumeut to vote fur him. If the allusion of the Devil and long role were intended for him, lie could assure the gallant Caadidate that it did sot apply, for loony years bad elapsed since be moved as a member of that body. As to his being the Devil, he thought it afforded the gallant gentleman au opportunity of getting nut of the scrape of this contest, for notwithstanding hie devoted and heroic courage, and his exercise of 11, so as to unite the sympathies of all hearts, be might still say with safety, he had not the boldness to encounter the Devil.—(Lead laughter.)—lt was not too late fur him to retire, sod the Devil was in it if he would sot render it necessary fur him to do se. The Hos. Iliseusset them referred to his public life, aud said that be bad once had the support of many of the gee slimes who were sow orisoug his oppuueots. It had bleu said, that be bad avowed his spprohatios of the late Act, puma by the Legislature. He was indeed afraid that scaseerftlasee Bills were rendered necessary by the state of the coentry, hat he bed declared_ lie 'irons disapprobstioe of the measure which authorized anocturnal entry into as Euglisbeaaa's boon—that Bill sh ould never hose had hie assent. He would dare assert that he was the friend to the fullest eater. vise of the elective franchise, which had bens the noble birth right of Englishmen for nearly ten centuries. After several further obeervatioas which were cv•stsully isiterrapteel by the people, the Hon. Barourt made souse humorous allusions to • dinner which had been prepared by his opponents •t • neighbouring timers, at • time lilies they thought they should walk over the course. He again thanked them for their support, and assured them, that whether suet:reseal or not, he would sever desert their interests. Being sow three o'clock, • 'hew of hands was called for. Oa being takes, the High Bailiff decided, that the majority was for Sir R. Wilson and Mr. Calvert. A poll was de manded on behalf of Sir T. Tertian. It was immediately entered on, and carried us till four o'clock, when the esna ben were declared as follow Charles Calvert, Esq. Sir R. Wilson Sir T. Tortes, Bari. While the poll was preparing a Mr. Btret..a addressed the meeting, stud offered a series of Resolutioos oa the subject of Parliamentary Reform, which, however, were not put. After the numbers were announced, Mr. CALVTIZt came forward to return thanks. He said that the state of the poll was a proof that he had not been so false a prophet as the Hon. Baronet would bare bad them believe. Their own arithmetic fillfilleJ his preritetios. Elat ed with this success, he would turn prophet again fur to morrow, and foretel, that if is one hour's poll he hail ob. tained a majority of forty-eight, to-morrow, when there would be a seven hours' poll, his majority would be seven times as great. He disdained any pretensions to the char racier of a wit. He thought he had said that the witticism was the Hun. Baronet's, who Mid said that be (Mr. Calvert) was blood, and himself an old stayer. Speoilang still ou the spirit of prophecy, he would say, that where the Hon Baru. net, on a former occasion, ►ad obtained twenty promotes, be would not now get cue.—tAppforre.) Sir R. WlLson thee came forward and was loudly cheered. He again expressed his thanks to them for their kindled., and said, that if a Allele hand were held up seitist hint he should feel himself humiliated. Their opponent, Sir T. Tairtou had a winuiug way; but he hoped they were too well educated not to distinguish between words and principles. They were not to be caught by such meat's.— " Women, like moths, are even caught by glare, And mansinos gaias where angels might despair." They hind belied the Baroaet's disavowal of the speech im puted to him. It was, however, a pity that be bed not taken an earlier opportunity of correcting it in the House of Commun.. 't'hat was the course lie took alien he had beeis misrepresented on a late occasion. A Representative ought to bean jealous of his fame as be should be of his wife's re putation. Fur he abash, recollect Sisal the cheradere of his conmitueuts were involved in his own. The Hon. Baronet, in disavowing any approbation to the Seizure of Arms Bill, said not one word about the nieasuie to restrain the liberty of the press. The Hmtnurable Baronet talked loudly of his iidepeodenee, though brought forward by a party de• cidedly aristocratical. Not one word had be and about Re . form, Ur abiding by the instructions of bts constituents. He (Sir K. W ) was always a had joker. Bel he could not on the present occasion refrain Crum making one. They had &likened of Mir Arehlas Stevie*, and knew that in Ike of Mabwallet there were as many seem so is that of ch,i.t.
