LUSHINGION, Esq. After the numbers were declared the several Can_ didates very briefly addressed the Livery. Sir WATKIN LEWES said, he had expeEted after the support by which he was honoured on the day of nomination, to have stood higher on the Poll. Mr. Alderman CURTIS, Sir JOHN \V a. ANDER- S", Mr. Alderman COMB E, and Mr. Alderman PRlce each said a few words, but from the noise and uproar in the Hall, it was impossible to hear what they said. Mr. TaAvERS called upon the Livery to perse vere in supporting the glorious cause in which he Was engaged. Mr. LUSHINGTON was not present. 756 7:6 693 5 0 9 311 WESTMINST ER ELECTION. IiVE are, much to our astonishment, under the ne cessity of giving an account of one more day's "ntest (if contest it can be called) for this City. At the close of the Poll yesterday, the returns fjorn the several Parishes were cast up, when the x ligh Bailiff declared the numbers to be as follows : For the Hon. C. J. Fox - 504 The Right Hon. Lord GARDNER - 401 JOHN GRAHAM, Esq. - 193 Mr. Fox, on this occasion, made a short address t° the Assembly, but the noise mad vl.unour with. out the Hustings *et* sti excessive, that we could scarcely distihguith ont of his obsethations. He principally adverted to the opposition which wag persisted in by one of the Candidates, which he seemed to censure in strong terms, on account of the ill effects Which it must necessarily produce, and which obviously could tend to no good pur pose, as every Spedator, and Eleflor, ,as well as the Candidates must feel convinced how the Elec tion must terminate. Lord GARDNER endeavoured to address the As sembly, but the noise and clamour increased to such a degree, that not one , word of those few which he did say was distinctly heard. Mr. GRAHAM then spoke, and most unaccount. ably, he was heard with•great attention. His ad_ dress was short, and wholly made up of com mon-place bombast.—The state of the Poll, on, his part, was such, as must be gratifying to every true lover of his Country—they must be aware of the strong and hostile opposition he had to en counter ; every effort of power was diretled against him, but he trusted the virtuous energies of his friends and supporters, would enable him to over come his opponents. Upon their patriotism he re lied ; —the numbers in his favour were considerable; by, their exertions he trusted he should poll four times as many to-morrow. At twelve o'clock this day the following was the state of the Poll : For the - Hon. CHARLES JAMES Fox _ 6z I The Right Hon: Lord GARDNER - 51 8 JOHN GRAHAM, Esq. SOUTHWARK ELECTION.—At the close of the Poll yesterday the numbers were : For Mr. THORNTON 1338 Mr. TIERNEY 1198 Sir T. TURTON tooB In the course of the poll yesterday for the Borough of Sowhwark, the votes of a great number of per sons who came for Sir THOMAS TURTON, were dis allowed, on the ground of their not paying the Kit g's Taxes or Poor Rates. It appeared that Mr. HEDGER, who -is one of Sir T. TURTON'S most alive friends, brought forward these persons as the tenants of houses belonging to him, or his friends. They paid a fixed rent, and the Landlord compounded with the Assessors and Parish Officers for the King's Taxes and Poor Rates; a pranice frequently adopted, and acquiesced in as a security to the Revenue against fugitive householders. These are called Farm Yates, and the Deputy Bailiff declared them inadmissible.. COVENTRY.—The riotous appearance of this place on Saturday last, has, in consequence of a re. presentation from the Mayor to Mr. BIRD and Mr. MOOR E, considerably'subsided. Mr. JEFFER vs had certainly a narrow escape With his life, as the mob, who went a Mile on the road to meet him, were in flamed by misrepresentations respeCting the House of Industry, to a degree .highly dangerous; but by skilfully entering the town at one end, while the mob were looking for him at the other, he avoided all molestation, to the great relief of his anxious friends in this City. Immediately on his arrival he was attended by the Mayor and Corporation, with many very respeftable inhabitants, to thank him for his spirited perseverance in their Cause. Of his eleaion there is not a doubt. The violent speeches of his opponents have disgusted many persons formerly attached to Mr. BIRD, particu larly the Quakers. Captain BARLOW, who has started for Coventry in eonjunCtion with Mr. JEFFERYs, is a fine young man, possessing a good Estate near York ; and the, gallant manner in which, in the midst of the riot, he started as a Candidate, at the moment that another Gentleman then in the Town for the purpose, was intimidated, has given great weight to his preten sions .with the great body of the Eleftors of Co ventry.

FORD, when it appeared that a gang of them had planted themselves in Baker.st reel North, among the thickest of the crowd. Immediately on the Balloon going up, they made a great rush, and robbed several persons, some of whom were knocked down, and very ill treated.— A plrty of the Bow_street Patrole coming up at the moment, secured three of them (one of whom was seen to throw away two watches, but they were picked up.) One of the Patrole was knocked down in the scuffle, the Prisoners making a desperate re sistance. William Wunn, a brass-founder in the neighbour hood of the Strand, identified one of the watches, and the person of one of the Prisoners, who, he said, with several others, hustled him in Baker-street North, and robbed him of his watch ; that he seized the-Pri soner, upon which several others rescued him, knock ed him, the witness, clown, and were going to throw him over a bridge, into some water,.w hen the patrole came to his aid. The other watch was identified by a young man of the name of Ward, who was robbed on the same spot ; and who said, that he had no doubt but the Prisoner, who was seen to throw away the said watch, was the person who took it out of his pocket. A thi r d man was id ent ifi e d by, a gentleman's servant, whose breeches-pocket he had turned inside out ; though, fortunately, without obtaining any thing; the servant having neither watch nor money about him. He was, however, committed to take his trial for the miscienteanor ; and the two former Prisoners for the felonies. Fifteen other suspicious persons were apprchend;:d by different parties of the Patrole, among the mob, and most of them being reputed thieves, were com mitted to prison. Several other pickpockets were apprehended by the Constables of the different Police Offices who attended on the occasion, !AI ? t!t 4.

Letters from Felh:tits, in the Department of Crewe, state that the whole of that Department was de vastated on -the 26th ult. by a dreadful storm, accompanied with thunder, lightning and hail ; the grain is all destroyed, the trees torn up by the roots, and there is scarcely a house in the town of \ Felletin that is not considerably damaged.

VIENNA, JUNE 20.—Several Regiments on the Frontiers have received orders to form a Corps of Observation to oppose the excesses committed by PASSWAN OGLOU. The last Letters from Turkey, state that the whole of that Empire is in a general state of fermentation, It is not improbable that the Provinces of Moldavia and Wallachia will be seized, for the purpose of being thrown into the general mass of Indemnities. The only incident we have heard of to eTeite risi bility on the day of the last ascension of GARNE_ RI N's Balloon, was the order given by Wu:LAN the farmer, to his men, to impound all the horsemen they found trespassing on his fields. By them his grass and inclosures sustained considerable injury. The first thing the men did was to rail up all the gates, and other avenues leading out of the fields ; and they aanally impounded not only the horses but the riders, to the amount of about sixty, affording great amusement to the mob colleBed to see this ex traordinary levy carried into execution. The horse. men were released, but the horses detained. On Tuesday several Gentlemen appeared before the Ma_ gistrates at Hatton Garden, at thq,instance of Mr. L L AN, farmer, on a charge of trespass committed, in company of nearly Soo persons on horseback, be sides a great number on foot, his palings being broke down : it appeared they had covered a large field of grass, which was entirely destroyed, in con sequence of their eagerness to see Mr. GARNER IN 's Balloon; but the complaint being more adapted to another place, they gave their address at the office, and departed. The day that GARNER IN went oW last in the BaL loon, a young woman, with an infant in her arms, ascended (with several other persons), a ladder reared against an unfinished house at the end of Baker-street ; unfortunately a few minutes before the ascension of the Balloon, a part of the brick work against which the ladder rested, give way the fright had such an dna upon the woman, that she dropped the infant, and in her frenzy to re cover it, jumped off the ladder (the height about thirty feet), a, - :d fell upon the crowd underneath, providentially without sustaining any material in. jary.

SEDLEY AND OTHEAS Jr.fr; PRObd?.,IN:.• Mr. Justice LAWRENCE s. - 441, that this .t• 3 case tried at the last Assiies for theConnty' of Lancaster,. before Mr: justice CeAry:nizi':----It was an Aftion of Debt, upon the filth section of the • Habeas Corpus Ad, to recover A perfaltragains: the Defendant, for refusing to grant to the Plaintiffs a copy of the warrant of commitment or detainer, by which they were kept in the custody of the De. fendant, who is the Keeper of the Gaol of Liverpool. A verdid was found for the Plaintiff, with liberty for the Defendant to move that a NOnsuit might be entered, in ease the Court should be of opinion that the Plaintiffs had not shewn they were entitled to call on tfie Defendant to chew this warrant at the,. trial, The substance of . the Plaintiff's declaration was, that they were in the custody of the Defend. ant; but not under any charge of treason Or felony : The Plaintiffs demanded of the Defendant-a copy of the warrant of commitment or detainer, but that the Defendant did not within six hours afterwards deli, ver to the Plaintiffs such copy, whereby he forfeited the penalty of tool. &c. It appeared that the Plaintiff, with' three other persons, were apprehended in Ireland, by a person of the name of Shee, under a 'warrant from Lord Castlereagh, and brought over to Liverpool by that Constable, _ and came into the custody of the De.: fendant, as Keeper of the Gaol at Liverpool, on the z 7th of July, and remained there until the loth of that month, when they were taken away by Shee. That they, several times, demanded a copy of the warrant of commitment, which the Defendant fused to give to them, and that the Defendant had a warrant in his hand. The Defendant had notice to produce this warrant At the trial : it was con tended at the tri,.: i.;; - . the Plaintiff ought to have been nonsuited,. because it was not proved that the Plaintiffs were under any warrant of commitment or detainetv 'But the learned Judge left it to the Jury to say whether there was a warrant or not. The Jury found -there was not any warrant, but that which was given to Shee, and helook it with him, when the Plaintiff's weretaken away and brought to London. A verdift was found for the Plaintiffs, for the penalty in the Aft of Parliament, subjed to the opinion of the Court upon this case. There were several other fads proved at the trial, but as they were,not important in the consideration of the law of the case, the learned Judge said he should not state them. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE having been Counsel in the cause, took no part in the judgment.—Mr. Justice LAWRENCE said, that his Brothers GytosE and Ls BLANC and himself had considered this case, and were of opinion, that the objetaion taken at the trial was well founded that the Plaintiffs having declared they were detained under a commitment or detainer for some criminal matter, but not for trea son or felony, it was incumbent on them to prove something of the nature of that warrant. That there was no evidence given of, the warrant given to Shee, and which was taken away by him, and that therefore notice to the Defendant to produce it, Was nugatory, it not being in his possession ; that this notice to the Defendant to produce the warrant, would not have entitled the Plaintiff's to give evi dence of its contents upon its non-produelionby the Defendant. Th e co n sequence, o f which was, that the Rule for entering a Nonsuit in this case should be made absolute. Rule absolute accordingly. Mr. PARK moved for a Habeas Corpus to be di. • raled to the Keeper of the Cold Bath-fields Prison, commanding him to bring up the bodies of Henry Rea, and two other persons, of the names of Beau. mont and Morgan, to be bailed, on the ground that they were committed only on suspicion ofa felony ; but it was his duty to stare to the Courr,'that this case had some singular circumstances about it. — The commitment was on a vehemrmt suspicion of murder at the Cape of Good Hope, and the commit ment was by the Lords Commissioners of His Ma jesty in Council. - Mr. GAR ROW said, that this was a very import ant cast—the parties were charged, that the one was principal, the. other seconds in a duel which took place and ended fatally, at the Cape of Good Hope, and one which called for further and serious inquiry ; but it was for he Court to say, whether, if the parties were before it, they ought to be ad mitted to bail. Lord ELLFNBOROTJGH .said, that this commit ment being on vehement suspicion of murder, in a case which occurred beyond the seas, was the very language pointed out by the statute of Henry the Eighth. It was the proper form of commitment in such a case as this; it was the form of thy commit ment of Governor Wall, who was lately cor►vi::eJ and executed. Mr. GARROW said, the matter had been examine() by the Council, and they went further than an ordi nary commitment, fur there was an opinion stated. They said they did vehemently stispea the parties of a murder at the Cape of Good Hope, on the Coast of Africa, and then the commitment Went on, that they should be kept until discharged in due course of Law. &c. The Court was of opinion there was not sufficient foundation for this application, and therefore retued die Writ. The following is copied verbatim from a Letter, left at a Public-House in Gateshead, Newcastle, to be put into the Post-Office :—" Mr. JAMEs LAU.. R NsoN cotton spinner Warrington Lancashire to be given to him & not his wife if he is not at home he may be found at any of the public houses wher they sell good ale for he is the divil for a glass of good ale!' Two children were attacked a few days ago by a Wolf in tie neighbourhood of Brest, they were not killed, though dreadfully mangled—A numbtr of Peasants immediately went into the woods, and in a short time destroyed a she Wolf and seven young ones.
