DERBYSHIRX ELECTION. Monday was the 'day oppoisited by the High 'Sheriff, Francis Mundy. Km. for theelection of two Knight* to serve in Parliament for this county, and as no new candidates were announced, it was anticipated that our late respected representatives would be returned without opposition. This. how eve', has not been entirely the case, for at least 11 show of oppositioti was attempted, which created a bustle in the town for a few hours. and thus iu all probability answered the effect cootemplated by the agitator. our former townsman, Dr. Crompton, of elec tioneering celebrity, returning from Nottingham, and finding that our county election was at hand, resolved not to suffer so tempting an opportunity to escape him of riding hie favourite kohby. Un dismayed by the uniform failure of his previous e!actioneering efforts,_ he instantly determined to nominate a third candidate fur this county; and a Pi:mil-bill dated on the morning of the day of elec tion, informed the Freeholders that he should pro po•e for their approbation Samuel Shore, Esq. of Ibleersbrook. This police having been industriously circulated. a very !huge concourse of people assem bled at the County Hall at ten o'clock, the hour :appointed by the High Sheriff; but as Lord G. H. Cavendish bad not at. that time arrived, though he was every minima expected, the Court was ad journed till twelve. At that hour the Hall was .gain completely filled. • and from the limited ex tent end inconvenient structure of the Crown Court, which was occupied as the hustings, a great proportion of the crowded assembly was unable to tear or to witness the proceeding'. An adjourn ment to the Court-yard was therefore loudly called for by those its .itte hack ground, but this not hying complied with, much tumult move, which for some time impeded the progress of the meeting. At last the business of the day was entered upon in is short address by the High Sheriff; when the L - hder Sheriff having gnu' through the preliminary gums, Bach. Heathente, Esq. of the Postures, in proposing Lord G. H. Cavendish, said.— Gentlemen—When 1 propose the Right Hon. Lard George Augustus H. Cavendish, as a highly proper person to be elected as one of your Repre •entatives in the approaching Parliament, I shall not introduce a stranger to you, but one who boo served you with seal, independence, and integrity, ui many Parliaments in that high ritualism. to whch I trust he will be this day restored, by your suffrages. i should pay but $ bad compliment to that dis cernment which you have so repeatedly and judi- . inunsly exercised. and to the exalted and eats-. h:islied character of the Noble Lord, if I attempted to describe either hie private virtues or his qualifi• ce:ions for the various public duties which he will have to discharge if he again becomes the object of Four choice. I will not. therefore, detain you un necessarily. but propose his Lordship as a pro Per person to be one of your Representative', in the' erso.ng Parliament. This !tonsil's/ion was seconded by Colonel Hal tnn, of Vl'iofield Manor, who spoke to the follow ing effect Gentlemen---Sensible as you all are of the quart. &anon. of Lord G. Cavendish to represent this county in Parliament. and of the due estimation in hich he is held by all ranks and parties for honour and integrity, it is unnecessary that I should tres pass on your time by eulogising his merits. You have experienced his Lordship's attention to 1.116 duties in the House of Commons, and I ven ture to assert that he is no less the faithful guardian of your local interests than of the glorious Cousti lotion under which we live, sod of the interests of the county at large. He again aspires to the ho nour which you have so repeatedly conferred upon him, and as you have proved his fitness fur the I.igh station he on. solicits at your hands. I feel the most perfect confidence that you will evince per approbation of his past services by again uaa isirsously returning him as your Representative. Edward Miller Mundy. Esq. was next pro posed by the Rev. C. S. Hotoest, of Aston-upon- Treat. who thus addressed the meeting :—Gentle toso. having been instructed early in life, that clearness sad conciseness make a rule perfect. if will endeavour not to trespan unnecessarily eta your time s bat conform to this rule as closely as lean. coosesteutly with that deference which is justly due to ea respectable Mad enlightened an assembly.

FRANCIS BRADIR•W, Esq. of Bartow Pork. is a very appropriate speech, seconded Mr. Monily's Demi nal km. Dr. CROMPTON. in a speech of touch warmth; and of considerable length. but of which we word unable to colkct much, from the tumult that pre. veiled and the pressure of the crowd. expressed his disapprobation of the conduct of both the latilf Members. While he testified his admiration of tho patriotic virtues and independent political principles which distinguished the Noble House of Cavendish ; he censored the coalition of that family with the Corporation of Derby, in returning the Borough Members—took a review of the present distressed state of the country. and contrasted it with former and more prosperous times-.attributed the pre. wailing misery and dissatisfaction to the extrairligant and • oppressive meaoures of Government, and charged Mr. Mundy with invariably giving them his sanction and support. He concluded with pro. posing Samuel Shore, Eiq. of Meersbrook. Mr. ROBERTSHAW seconded Mr. Shore's nonsi. nation. It appeared, however. from the replies made by Dr. Crompton to some questions put to him by Sir Robert Wilmot, that he had nominated Mr. Shore without any authority from that Gentleman, and that this most respectable individual was to tally unacquainted with the Doctor's intentions. Still it was maintained and admitted that this cir. cumstance did not affect the immediate progress of the business. The names of the several candidates were thus submitted to the choice of the freeholders; this was espreased as usual by a shew of hands, which was declaritr by the High Sheriff to 'be decidedly in rayon, 'of the' late Members. The shew of hands for Mr. Shore was iiiconviderable; the populace, who were not freeholders, and who seemed the most anxious for his success, having been cautioned by the. Under Sheriff from assuming the privilege of voters. Dr. Crompton, however, demanded a poll, which commenced itninediately, and continued till five o'clock, when the numbers were declaim:l.os follow : Mr. Mandy Lord G. M. Csesodists . .... 171 Mr. itestro.....4 23 The Court was that adjourned till mine o'clock the Next morning. • At the hour appointed the Sheriff, Assessor, Ste. were in ettendance, but before the polling ►e-coal masted a fetter wits read room Mr. Shore to Lied G. H. Cavendish and Mr. !Mundy. in which he assured them that his having been proposed by Dr. Crompton as a Candidate was altogether without • his knowledge, roil he hoped that it could not be supposed that he, who was now upwards of 81 years . of age, and had hero erm‘fined fur some time by sickness, had any intentiop of riefriakofterliesieht.' Hi apologized fur ►he Manner in which he wrote, but informed them that he wrote •from his bed, where he had been some hours before their messen. ger reached Meersbrook, Notwithstanding this letter, Dr. CDONIPTON isi sisted on the right of the freeholder* to nominate and . to elect any . Gentleman whom they thought proper as their representative, and was proceeding so quote authorities for his opinion, when he was informed that it war unnecessary to go on with uu argument which was universally admitted, and that the polling would proceed immediately. Three votes only presenting themselves on behalf of Mr. Shore, proclamations for closing the poll were made in the usual form, mid the business of the election terminated soon after ten o'clock. The numbers fluidly announced were— For Lord G. H. Careudish 190—Mr. Meade 195—Mr.. shore I. Lord G. H. CAVENDISH and E. M. MUNDY, Esq. were then declared to be duly elected. After this was announced, the High Sheriff come forward, and said--. Gentlemen, having now discharged my duty as your Returning Officer, permit me to address you as a freeholder aod . a fel low-countryman. Having an interest in common with yourselves in the election of proper persons to discharge the arduous duty of representing you in Parliament, allow nie to congratulate you, as I do from my heart, upon the choice which you have made. It is impossible. in my opinion, that you could hays selected two Gentlemen better quali. tied, and more zealously disposed to promote our local interests, and discharge their public duty as Representatives of this enlightened and must re spectable county, with honour to themselves', and a just regard to the welfare of the nation. than those upon whom your choice has this day fallen. Lord G. H. CAVENDISH then spoke as follows : Mr. Sheriff. and Gentlemen—l cannot omit in the first instance to thank you, Sir, for the very flatter ing terms in which you have expressed yourself to. wards me on making your return. Gentlemen. after what has passed yesterday, and the manner iii which the poll has been protracted, vexatious in itself; discreditable to the person who so protracted it, and disrespectful to the county and to you, I will not detain you further than to express my sin. cere thanks for the lioi sssss r you have done me in having agaip placed me irp * situation which I shall ever estimate in the highest degree, and which you hove conferred upon me in a manner the most gra. laying to my feelings. Mr..Muspi then addressed himself to the She. riff and the meeting to this effect beg. Mr. Sheriff; you will accept my sincere thanks for your impartial conduct during the election, sod for ►he handsome manner iu which you spoke of my No ble Consist tee sad myself. 1 perfectly agree with Lord G. Laveudish to every thing he boa said re specting the conduct of Dr. Crompton ; and I will molt add, Gentlemen, that I beg you will ac• cept my bailiff:it thanks for this and eU the forme./ favours you have conferred upern me.

TRIAL FOR HIGH TREASON. - : OLD HAILS); APRIL 19. The Court at OM leihm9 this morning pre. stirred exactly llwremne appearance of company us it did on the preceding &its the Judges took their seats at nine o'clock. The body ♦f the Court was full, but the galleries were very thinly attended. A number of persons crowded the street in front of the Sessions Houie ; the gateserere still kept closed. aud a large body of constables maintained order, and prevented the avenues from being blocked up. Several. Ladies were in Court, and the Sheriffs manifested their usual anxiety to afford the utmost possible accommodation to visitor.. The Marquis of Hourly. Lord Kensington, and the distinguished poet Sir Walter Scott, were accommodated with seats on the bench. Lord Yarmouth and Captain Fissclarence were sloe there. At • quarter past nine o'clock the prisoner Thiolkwood was put to the Bar, and at his own request indulged with a chair, as int the preceding days. The Arroanwr-GzutiAL addressed the Court, and stated. that he had procured the attendance of Colonel James this morning, in consequence of what had fallen from one of the Gentlemen of the Jury yesterday. On the part of the Crown he was aware they could not examine the Colonel, not having given the regular notice required by law of an intention of calling him. He felt it his duty, however, its obedience to the wish of a Juror, to have the'Culonel in Court. The Crown could have no objection to his examination by the Prisoner's Counsel, if they pleased. The Gentleman was in Court, and they could do with him as they pleased. Mr. Anotonus thanked the Attorney-General fur the opportunity he wished to afford olexamia. jog Colonel James. But in the discharge of hie duty he could not. as Counsel for the Prisoner in such a trial as this, be induced to put into the box a witness, who, if necessary at all, ought to have been put into the box on the part of the Crown. If be were to cousent to take a witness in this way, all he should say was, to use the language of a Noble Judge, now no more (Lord Ellenborough). rs it would be high time to leave off the prac tice of doing business in Courts of Justice in the manner in which they were wont to transact it." He was sure the Learned Attorney-General did not medal to put him in the predicament with the Jory. of &Miring to call a witness under the imprearon that that witness was more likely to make against him than for him. • The Arroaxstr•GaxaaLL disclaimed, the slight est intention of placing Mr. Adolphus in an invi dious predicament with the Jury. He had merely. as be had already stated, brought Colonel James into Court in consequence of what had fallen-yes *tufa), evening from u Gentleman of the Jury. The Omar JUSTICE said. that could have been the only motive of bringing Colonel James now into Court. Mr. ADOLPHUS was now called upon to sddress the Jury for the Defendant in reply to the evidence given on the put of the prosecution. The Learned Gentleman commenced his speech at 20 minutes toast 'line o'clock, and did not conclude till one. The great object of his address, which was eloquent rood ingenious, was to impress upon the minds of the Jury, that whatever other effect.' as against the De. fendant, the evidence for the prosecution might be supposed capable of producing, it was impossible it could be considered in such a case as this as sub stantiating a charge of high treason. Chief Justice AlloTT concluded his charge to the Jury at five o'clock. The Jury then retired for a few minutes, ind sent a message to the Court requesting to see the Act of the 34th of the King. The Chief Justice Abbott seat for the Jury, who immediately appear ed in Court. His Lordship was about to send up the Act of Parliament, when they requested him to read it. His Lordship accordingly reed over the Act. He said, that the statute in question was made to continue during the life of his late Majesty, and for at months Att. the royal demise, so that it clearly affected the Prisoner ; but by a subse quent Act of Parliament, that Act was made per petual, which set the matter entirely at rest.— His Lordship proceeded to read the Act (which we may state without infringing on the otder of the Court), it stated that any attempt to bring death Of destruction on his Majesty, or to maim or wound him, or to imprison I or restrain his personal liberty, or to attempt to depose him, or to key war against his Majesty, or to attempt by force to make him change his Ministers, or to intimidate either House of Parliament, _ was high treason. His Lordship then proceeded to say, to attempt to depose his Majesty, or to levy war against did not require proof that soldiers stood absolutely in military array against him, but any attempt by numbers rising to insurrection was considered as levying war under the Act of 23th Edward 111. The Jury, after listening with the most anxious attention to the observations of the Chief Justide, retired. The unhappy Primmer, as well as we could judge from his countenance and his manner, when they culled for the Act of Parliament, seemed to entertain • momentary hope. His countenance brightened up, but 0111 observatious or the Lord Chief Justice seemed to dissipate his hopes. The Jury, after a few minutes deliberation, re turned to the boa, sod brought in a verdict of TH BRUISIL delivering his sentioests epee the existing state et • speech of his royal father nude . epee the hearts of his solleets. resoessbered with affectionate gnott with anxious solicitude to the tint mow to the Mies Nvippwin befall is s own right. is the simian relatima il l i t Mtider of his people."

LONDON, THURSDAY. Aran. sai;: ' CONVICTION or ARTHUR THISTLEWOOD. The trial of Arthur Thistleweed closed yester day evening at five o'clock, and so effectually had the evidence adduced on the part of the Crown re moved every doubt of the prisoner's guilt from the minds of the jury, that they after a very few minutes' deliberation returned a verdict of GUILTY on the third and fourth counts of the indictment. Both these counts were laid on the Act of the 36th of the late King. The third count, as wee stated in this Paper on Wednesday, the 4th instant, charged the prisoner with compassing, devising, and intending to levy war against the KING within this realm, in order by force and constraint to compel him to change his measures and counsels ; and the fourth charged the prisoner with en. devouring by force and arms to subvert the Con stitution and Government of this realm as by law established, to depose the King, end to deprive him of the style, honour, and kingly name, of the Imperial Crown of this realm." The latter clause of this count differs in no respect from the first count of the indictment, which is founded on the Act of the gsth of EDWARD 111., and the first clause of it differs from the second count, which is founded on the same statute, only iu omitting the charge of intending to put the KING to death. The strictness of the injunction pronounced by the Cuter JUSTICE of the Court of King's Bench precludes us from publishing the report even of Thistlewood's trial all the individuals impli cated iu the same charge *hall be tried. As there are ten of these persons, each of whom will be triad separately, if we allow an average of three days to each trial, and if the injunction be strictly obeyed, the London Papers will not be enabled to gratify the anxiety of their readers until about the beginning of June next ! This delay will, we apprehend, tempt some individuals not within the immediate view of the Court to forget ' what is due to its authority. We should not be surprised if the provincial newspapers were to dis obey the terms of the injunction, or if spurious publications were to be made even in Louden through other sources than the regular daily press. Such inaccurate reports, for the reasons we noticed yesterday, will, in our opinion, be calculated to effect much greater mischief to the fair administra tion of justice than if the injunction were now di.. solved, and the ordinary channels of public infor mation suffered to proceed with their wonted regu larity. There are indeed at present very few men in London who are not by some means apprised already of the general tendency and nature of the evidence adduced against the prisoners, and the only consequence of aufferipig the newspapers now to publish the trial of Thistlewood, would be to correct erroneous impressions. which must of neer*. sity 'prevail upon this subject. The second trial will commence to-morrow. Parliament will meet to-morrow, and when we consider the very extraordinary situation to which the country has been reduced, it may well be af firmed that never did the great Councils of the realm meet at a period of greater or more general anxiety. A painful feeling of alarm pervades the great body of the nation, nor is this uneasy sen sation relieved by the reflection that the general tranquillity of the State rests solely spots the strong arm of military power, and that unless Parliament be determined to investigate the canoes of the ex isting malady with candour and firmness, the pub lic safety. ceunot be obtained but at the price of blood. We are very far from advising that mili tary force should not be energetically employed to check the outrages of the malcontents when they threaten the public tranquillity, but deeply agitated as the country is said to be at present, we cannot hope that force alone will be capable of improving the moral sentiments of the deluded multitude, of teaching them to prefer industry to riot, and of leading them back to the exercise of throe social qualities which since rendered them citizens and obedient subjects. Force has been tried, but no improvement followed, and the harsh measures which Parliament adopted in the last Session, so far from correcting the evil they professed to re medy, seem rather to haie lent an additional de gree of bitterness to the minds of the 'gnaw...— We trust that not a moment will be lost in bring ing the state of the country before the view of both Houle of Parliament, and that Committees will be appointed solemnly and seriously to investigate the sources of the present calamity, and der.se the means of shutting theta up for ever. The KING will, we understand. proceed to the House of Lords in state 011 this day week. for the purpose of meeting his first Parliament. mud of The report of the arrival of the Quevi.at which we noticed yesterday, was generally credited in the City. but it has mot received any confirmation.
