He was aware that but for the intimidation which had been resorted to, there would be no doubt of his election. He had can vassed many of the tradesmen of Brentford, and the an swer he got from some of them was, that the clergym who was a schoolmaster, would not allow them to vote for him. Mr. Branfil then contrasted the inefficiency of a Tory governinont to the advantages of a Liberal one. He felt how necessary it was for the electors that the ballot should be instituted to protect them. He sat down amidst loud cheers. sions during his canvass, unless specially cal ed upon to do so. It was, however, perfectly well known that he was op posed to the Bill in Parliament, not because the old sy,tem did not require alteration, but because he was of opinion that some of the details of the new law would prove in jurious in their operation.—(Hear, hear.) The law which was calculated to produce beneficial results in many parts of the kingdom, in others was altogether inapplicable. He had no doubt, however, that early in the ensuing Session it would undergo such a revision was would make it palatable to all classes.—(Hear, hear.). DR. GRANVILLE'S NEW WORK.

The chief aim of the National Loan Fund Life Assurance So ciety is, by the introduction of new principles, to give the widest extension and a beneficial direction to the objects to be obtained by Life Assurance : to encourage present providence and saving amongst all classes of the community, as a sure guarantee of future independence, and in doing this to obtain at the same time a true economy of capital to the assured himself, by securing to him, out of his own savings, all the benefits of a deposit bank and a Life Assur ance ; thus it is proposed that the fund arising out of the premiums paid by the assured shall be made capable of fulfilling two or more objects,-Ist. The payment of the contract on the policy —2d, A Loan F un d, out ofwhic h the assure d w ill b e entitled , under certain guarantee s , to borrow equal to two-thirds of his payments-3d, In the event o f i nability to continue his payments, such other equitable dispositio n of his interest in his policy will be allowed him as he may choose. B thi s means will be removed the apprehension of great pecuniary Toss, in the event o f casual non - ability to meet the payment of the annual premium , and by one Op - eration, .two . m . m ost important objects secure as well as for hie family at daea provision for the assured while living, To Capitalists the attraction of Life Assurance Societies as an tivestment will be seen by reference to the present Market Value of the Shares of the following Companies.

The Capital is divided into 50,000 Shares of 10/. each, deposit 2/. ss. per Share, to be paid immediately on subscribing. The Profits will be declared at the end of the irst three, and not more than five years. In the mean thee the Shareholders will receive 5 /. per cent. per annum on the Deposits. T lee immediate attention of the Directors will be given to the Establishment of Offices and Agencies throughout the United King dom. Wherever an agency is formed, it is proposed, by way of creating a local influence, to distribute a certain number of Shares, and as a further stimulus to the extension of the Society, Commit tees of the assured will also be formed in each locality, and a separate calculation mado of its success ; and besides the general Bonus of two-thirds of the profits, the assured in each locality will be entitled to a separate Bonus, the amount of which will be made to depend on the value and extent of their own exertions.

" There is not in this wide world a ♦alley so sweet," &e. There is not throughout London so famous a street As the Strand, where at Warren's I..erfection we meet Oh ! the last pair of Boots shall for mortals be made, Ere the fame of his Blacking from memory shall fade. It is not that art has for many years bask Bestow'd on this liquid the darkest of black; It is not for colour alone that we buy ; Oh, no!—there is something worth more than the dye. 'Tis that lustre, the test of good Blacking, is here, Which makes each bright Boot still more brilliant appear ; And we know how surprising the truth we declare, When the face Is reflected from Boots that we wear. Great genius of Blacking ! how smart shall we get When our Boots are made bright with thy wonderful Jet : What praise, mighty Warren ! shall ever be thine, With thy Liquid or Paste when our Wellingtons shinel This Easy-shining and Brilliant Blacking prepared by ROBERT WARREN, 34,., Strand, London ; and sold in every Town in he Vatted Kingdom.

ECONOMICAL GREEN HOUSE.—Much of the produce of the green house may be procured, at half the ex pense, by the use of a pit, which requires no other glass than the sashes which form its roof. The amusement of the pro ducts which such a pit, in the hands of an ingenious amateur, is calculated to afford, are almost without end. Small salad ing may be produced in it throughout the whole winter. Chi cory roots (though this may be accomplished in a common cellar) may be made to throw out their blanched leaves, which form the most delightful of all winter salads; tart rhubarb or sea-kale may be forced in pots; as may parsley, mint, and other herbs. Bulbs may be forced ; and a bloom of China roses may be kept up throughout the winter. But, perhaps, the most important use to which such a pit can be applied, in a small suburban garden, is to preserve throughout the winter, and to bring forward in spring pelargoniums, fuchsias, salvias, calceolarias, verbenas, and other fine exotic flowers, and also half-hardy and tender annuals, for turning out into the flower garden, or into the miscellaneous border, in the beginning of summer.—Loudon's Suburban Gardener, Na. 1. The 2d Battalion of the Grenadier Regiment of Cluards was inspected yesterday morning in Hyde Park, by Geiaeral Lord Hill, the Commander-in-Chief. The battalion, under the command of Colonel D'Oyley, arrived in the Park at half.vast nine o'clock, and took up its ground in open co lumn right i'ta front, wheeled into line, and took open order. General Lord J-lill, attended by his staff, and accompanied by several General Officers, arrived in the Park and took his station in front of Olt: centre of the line, when the battalion presented arms. The Commander-in-Chief, escorted by a grand military cortege, r ideto the right of the lines, passed down in front and up the roar, and took up his original station. The battalion then took close or;ler, wheeled back into open column, and marched past the Rorie wing-General in slow and quick time, and subsequently marched to the original ground, and proceeded to perform several evolutions and maoceuvres with great celerity and precision. The battalion then tired by platoons, by grand divisions, by wings, and concluded-by firing a volley. The troops then charged in line, halted, took open order, and gave the general salute. The Commander-in- Chief then rode forward, and expressed in unqualified terms his approbation of the steadiness and discipline of the battalion. HANOVER, JULY 25.—The Cabinet Minister, Von Ompteda, has arrived from London. The German Chancery in that city is broken up. The Duke of Brunswick leaves us again to-morrow. He would have stayed longer. but the day after to-morrow is the grand dinner which the Duke is used always to give to the members of the Assembly of the States at the close of the Session, and at which he always appears in person. Her Majesty the Queen has been indisposed sinee yesterday evening, and is obliged to keep her room. A change in the uniform of the whole army is talked of to-day ; it is said that the Yagers of the Guard will be disbanded; that all the infantry will have blue jackets and grey pantaloons with red stripes. The Kin g always appears in this uniform. Well informed persona aflirm also that his Majesty intends to form a body guard, to be composed of veteran subaltern officers, This day the nomination of two candidates for the repre sentation of the South Division of the county of Essex took place at Chelmsford. About 11 o'clock, the two great parties, the blue and orange (the former in the interest of the Tory candidates, and the latter in that of the Liberal), assembled at the hustings, each attended by a fine martial band, and varie gated banners, bearing the usual devices. Silence having been obtained, and the usual prelimi naries over, The SHERIFF requested that they should hear with pa tience any gentleman who might address the assembly. Sir JOHN TYRRELL then presented himself and was warmly cheered. He begged to assure the meeting that he had felt considerable diffidence in addressing them even upon ordinary occasions, and they might well imagine how that diffidence was increased on the present. He felt, how ever, that his Hon. Friend stood in no need of fulsome pa negyrie.—(Checrs.) The name of Bramston was talismanic in that county, and he believed that he was indebted for the greater part of the opposition which he now received to his watchful and independent conduct in the House of Com nons.—(Hear, hear.) . He concluded by proposing Mr. Bramston as a fit and proper person to represent them in Parliament. Mr. CoLTQN briefly seconded the nomination. Jon N ROUND, Esq., M.P., the newly-elected represen tative of Maldon, said that he came forward with great pleasure to propose to the electors George Palmer, Esq., as a fit and proper person to represent them in the Impe rial Parliament. On a former occasion, twelve months since, he had undertaken to say that Mr. Palmer would most anxiously and faithfully discharge his senatOial duties, and that promise had been fully borne out byMr. Palmer's Parliamentary conduct. He, therefore,htd his power -to refer the electors, not to Mr. Palmers pto fessions, but to his acts. Mr. Palmer has redeepied tfie pledges which he made of supporting the institutions of the country in Church and State. But, above his other claims, the support which he gave to the agricultural inte rest must entitle him to the unceasing support of all the agriculturalists in this country.—(Cheers.) He may justly be entitled the friend of the industrious classes of all de scriptions—he may with truth be called the friend of the plough, the loom, and the sail.—(Cheers.) Mr. Round concluded by reminding the electors of the great crisis to which the political events of this country had now arrived, and •by calling on them to re-elect Mr. George Palmer, who had fulfilled all the duties they may expect from a re presentative.—(Cheers.) J. E. HOULDEN, Esq., seconded the nomination of Mr. Palmer. He would not, indeed, bring forward any candi date to the notice of the electors from mere personal predi lection, nor would he introduce to their notice any person whom he did not feel deeply convinced would be adequate to the task of representing the agricultural interests of this country. He was aware that, in an agricultural district like this, it would be the duty of the electors to return to Parliament a representative who would have the agri cultural interests at heart. He (Mr. Houlden) was himself interested to a considerable degree in farming matters—(Hcar, and cries of " You ought to be returned yourself")—and he certainly would not give his support to any candidate who was not likely to advocate the interests of agriculture. He would remind the meeting, that when a question was raised in Parliament, whether foreigners would be allowed to compete with the British growth of corn in the British market, Mr. Palmer spoke in opposition to the ruinous measure.—(Cheers.) He trusted, therefore, that the electors would send Mr. Palmer again to Parliament. They would then send one who would go there, not for the purpose of whiling away an idle hour—not for pastime or for pleasure—but with the determination of devoting all his energies to the service. —(Cheers.) THOMAS BARRETT LENNARD, Esq., then said he came forward to propose to them a gentleman of an old family and extensive property amongst them, Champion Edward Branfill, Esq., of Upminster-hall—(Cheers)—as a fit and proper person to represent them in Parliament.—(Hear.) He will solicit their suffrages as a country gentleman, and not, as his enemies insinuate, as the tone of any party. The misrepresentations of his enemies show the miserable want of argument under which many labour.—(Cheers.) He would agree with the gentleman opposite that it was necessary to have a representative conversant with agri cultural pursuits to represent them in Parliament, but he would ask who was more capable of defending their agri cultural interests than Mr. Branfill ?—(Cheers.) That gentleman is a practical farmer, and has prepared himself by study as well as by practice to advocate the cause of agriculture in the House of Commons ; and practical speakers are much wanted in the House. For instance, when the question of corn-laws is introduced, and when the repeal of those laws is supported by arguments which in the abstract are perfectly right, a speaker of practical experience is wanted to point out the injuries which the repeal of those laws would produce, and to show that the principles of free trade, which in other cases are so advan tageous, would in this case be prejudicial. During the discussion of the late Tithe Bill, a practical man like Mr. Branfill would be of infinite service, and h e (M r . Lennardi believed that if Mr. Branfill had been i n Parliament 'dur ing the last session, a great improvement wou ld h ave b een made in that Bill. He (Mr. Lennard) had heard that Sir John Tyrrell had been complaining that Mr. Branfill en tertained some opinions similar to those entertained by the candidates whom he (Sir John Tyrrell) supports. Now really they could not help that. If the Tories will turn over it is not their fault.—(Laughter and cheers.) This much he could say, that his own friends always maintained the same principles. Mr. HOLT WIGHT, in coming forward to second the no mination of his friend, Mr. Branfill, said that although this was the first time he had ever addressed so numerous and respectable a meeting in the advocacy of those princi ples which he was convinced the majority of them had as sembled to sustain ; yet he was not the first of his f am i ly who had stood forward, in more stormy times than these, to support those principles as he was quite sure Mr. Bran fill would do, if sent by them to Parliament.--(Cheers.) When he came there to-day, he had expected to hear m any of the topics discussed by the gentlemen upon the opposite waggons, which had been so freely used by them during the canvass, for the purpose of seducing the votes of the honest electors.—(Cheers.) The name of O'Connell— (Loud cheers from the Liberal side, and a few hisses from the Tories.) He was not afraid of discussing the question of O'Connell and his injured country.—(Cheers and hisses.) His best efforts had been made to free his country from orange thraldom.—(Cheers.) Was the Protestant religion in dager from the Dissenters ?—(" Yes," from Mr. Can ning Parker.) He denied it.—(Loud cheering.) He would call now upon his brother electors to support the Queen and her chosen Ministry.—(Cheers.) They could never be too thankful to the Providence that placed her over them, and rescued them from German scaffolds and German sabres. The speaker concluded by seconding the nomination of Mr. Branfill. Mr. BRAMITON said, that a "gentleman opposite had spoken of the necessity of having the Liberal portion of the constituency represented by one candidate, but for his part he thought it much better that there should be a direct renresentation of the entire county, than that each side should have a representative to represent its awn opinions.—(Cheers.) If the Liberals in Middlesex made such desperate efforts to return two Liberal can didates, certainly the Conservatives of South Essex ought to be equally desirous of returning two Conservative Members of Parliament.—(Cheers.) He thougL•t that the manner in which the Queen's name had been used on the occasion of those elections was a most dising,enu ous one, but he acknowledged the Noble Lord the Home Secretary had set the example to the candidates through the country. Mr. Bramston, in conclusion, assured the electors that, if returned to Parliament, he would not waste his time among the idle amusements of a dissi pated metropolis, but. that he would be unrelaxing in his attention to the House of Commons, in order to defend the institutions of the country, and to preserve the National Church.—(Cheers.) Mr. PALMIER next addressed the electors, and observed, on the last occasion he had been returned by a majority of 576 votes over his present opponent; so he had little ex , petted to meet that gentleman in the field again.— (Laughter.) But he did not complai❑ of that, as it gave him another opportunity of coming before the constituency to ascertain their opinion of his conduct.—(Loud cheer ing.) The speaker then went on to refer to the Duke of Cumberlawl, and the disrespectful manner in which his name bad bee, treated, and afterwards to Lord Durham's letter, which he characterised as strongly Conservative as could possibly be written by Sir Robert Peel himself. He concluded by assuring the electors that if returned he would support the independence of the Commons, the Piers, and the Crown. Mr. BRANFILL said Mr. Palmer affects to be surprised at my appearing on the hustings in opposition to him on this day. But if he had rea d t h e pu bli c papers a fter - the last election for the county, he would not feel his present surprise, Besides, they knew but little of him who would The HIGH SHERIFF having called for a show of hands on the parts of the respective candidates, a majority ap peared in favour of Mr. Bramston and Mr. Branfill, who were therefore declared duly elected. A poll was de manded by some person on the part of Mr. Palmer, which was appointed to be taken on the days of Thursday and Friday next. WEST KENT ELECTION. A meeting of the friends and supporters of T. Law Hodges, Esq., when at the Town-hall, Dartford, on Friday last, when that gentleman attended for the purpose of ren dering an account of his past Parliamentary conduct, and explaining his political opinions. The meeting was a nu merous and respectable one. Richard Leigh, Esq., of Hawley, was called to the chair. Mr. HonGvs rose amid great cheering. He looked upon the present as an important crisis in the affairs of the country. He could remember nothing like it, and he was scarcely aware of any thing like it upon record. The con duct of the electors of England at the present period would stamp the destinies of the kingdom. It way well known that the cause of reform had not advanced proportionably to the wishes and expestations of the people, and many were dissatisfied in consequence of the delay ; but whose fault was it that the progress had not been more rapid ? The Ministers, who were desirous of effecting every prac ticable beneficial reform, had been hampered by various circumstances. This was the sole cause of their adniinis- tration falling short of public expectation. The House of Peers had been constantly hostile to reform, and had thrown every obstacle in the way of all the improvement which the Ministry and the public were desirous of effecting. During the law reign the Court had also been opposed to the wishes of the people. The Sovereign himself had clothed his reign with immortal honour, in having been instru mental in the passing of the Reform Bill. William the . Fourth had l e nt hi mse lf t o th e cause o f Reform, he be lieved with great heartiness and good will ; but he was harassed and annoyed by those about his person— (Cheers)—was kept in a state of constant anxiety and alarm through their agency, and thus prevented from pur suiiig the bent of his own inclination and conviction.— (Cheers.) The case, however, is different now. They had a young and virtuous Queen—(Cheering) upon the throne, whose sympathies are blended with the happiness of her subjects, and who was untrammelled with the inter ference of those inimical to the rights and desires or the people.—(Renewed cheers.) If the electors of the king dom perfornied their duty, it would not be in the power of a faction to retard the cause of Reform for the future. It had been said that he (Mr. Hodges) was a revolutionist, that he would pull down the church and the throne, and set up the Pope in their stead. Now he was of opinion that the Tories were the real revolutionists, for by opposing and preventing the correction of abuses in Church and State, they were bringing both into imminent danger. If the church and the throne should be pulled down, it would be the Tories to whom the mischief would be attributable.—(Loud hears.) The abuses of the church were the only unpopular parts of the establish ment—reform these, base the institution upon the :affec tions of the people, and there will be no danger of its stability.---(Loud cheers.) Among the grievances which were complained of as appertaining to the Church was that of Church-rates. The impost falling hard upon many classes of persons had induced them to look into the ancient law of the subject, and to the purposes for which it was first called into existence, and in the search the misapplication of these rates had been made apparent—ay, and their legality was rendered more than doubtful—so much so, that it was very difficult to recover them under any legal process. The public wore desirous that this question should be set at rest. There was a personal subject to which it might be neces srry for him to allude, and which he should not have in troduced but that it misht be brought before them, as it lied before others, by his opponents when he was not by to an swer it. At one of the meetings which he attended he was asked whether he was not an Atheist ; it having been stated, for the purpose of deluding those with whom such a charge was likely to have any weight, that he was op posed to the diffusion of education, an enemy to Sunday schools, and that he forbade the reading of the Bible. In answer to this, he could only refer to his neighbours, to those who had known him for years—to the resi dents of his own parish, where he had lived upwards of 20 years, for the facts of this case. They would tell them that he had always been a member—an unworthy member —but still a member of the Church of England; that he had always to the utmost of his power assisted in promoting the means of education to all classes, and that his unchanged tenets had been, that the best education was that based upon the Holy Scriptures.—(Hear, hear.) He had before said that this was an important crisis at which they had arrived. The eyes of the whole world were at that moment fixed upon England, and the progress Of c ivilisation depended upon the manner in which the fu ture Government of this country was to be conducted. In a c ommercial, in a political, and moral point of view, England was far in advance of other nations. It was, therefore, to her other states looked fer the impetus to pro pel their own advance. Let the momentum cease here, and the progress of social improvement would be stayed throughout Europe. It depends wholly upon the electors of this country whether the hopes of the world are to be frustrated, or the cause of freedom and civilization to tri umph.—(Hear, hear.) They had a Queen whose feelings accord with those of her people.—(Cheers.) One of the great topics of the present day had become almost a bye-word from its frequent repetition, but they must not be deterred by this from saying something about its merits. He alluded to the cry of " Justice for Ireland."—(Hear, hear.) On this subject he could speak in some measure from experience. About forty years age—in the year 1798—when he was a young man, and had just left college, it was his fate to see something of Irish life under peculiar circumstances. The country was then in a state of rebellion, and he had joined a regiment which was sent with others to suppress the revolt. He went thither, as most of the young officers who went with him did, with feelings entirely hostile to the Irish as to a people factious, rebellious, upon whom all kiudness and conciliation would be utterly thrown away ; for we supposed that they had the same laws, the same li berties and privileges as we enjoyed ourselves, and that they, therefore, had no more real cause of complaint than the English. But a few weeks' experience were sufficient to set them right on these points. When they saw the misery, the abject wretchedness, to which a long course of misgovernment had reduced the people, the servility which was demanded from them, and the way in which they were treated, they were ready to exclaim—lie believed some of them did so, and himself for one—that instead of being surprised at the disposition to rebellion among the Irish, if he were an Irishman he would be a rebel too.—(Cheers.) lie did not relate this to elicit any applause, but merely to show them what. had led to the opinion which he then en tertained respecting Ireland. He arrived at the conviction then, and he was as much convinced of its truth now, that there were three things absolutely necessary to be done be fore Ireland could become a happy and peaceful countiy, The first was, Catholic emancipation, on which he need, n e t then say anything, because that had been granteel years since ; the second was, the establishment of law f or I re l an d , a measure wh i ch, dur i ng the lee Session o poor f Parli amen t, reac h e d suc h a state o f forwar" t thing necessary was, that equal laws ness that there could be little doubt of its passing in the • ; and thehird Irish as to the English—(Lo 1 u ` ) that there should be no distinction as to rights ' ' eers rivile , res among any of the subjects of the Britiels P c 1• should (Cheers.)

YORKSHIRE, WEST RIDING. WAKEFIELD, MONDAY NIGHT, JULY 31.—The nomi nation of candidates for the representation of this division of till county took place to-day. At a very early hour the usual symptoms of a county election began to manifest them selves. The partisans of the Liberals, Lord Morpeth and Sir George Strickland, and of the Conservative, Mr. John Stuart Wortley, had assembled in considerable numbers at sit o'clock in the morning, and paraded through the streets, preceded by banners and bands of music ; by ten o'clock immense numbers of persons had arrived from the various districts of the riding ; and by eleven, the hour fixed for the nomination, the area in front of the court-house, where the hustings were erected, was thronged with the friends of the candidates, amounting to many thousands, wearing the favours of their party—the Liberals orange, and the Con servatives blue. Lord Morpeth and Sir G. Strickland were loudly cheered by the orange favours, and Mr. ‘Vortley by the blues. Shortly after eleven o'clock the High Sheriff arrived, and the usual formalities having been disposed of, Sir FRANCIS WOOD proposed Lord Morpeth, and Mr. JONATHAN ACROYD seconded the nomination. Sir E. VAVASOUR proposed Sir George Strickland, and Mr. WARBURTON, of Sheffield, seconded the nomination. The Hon. EDWINLASUELLE s then proposed Mr. Wortley, and Mr. John BaooK seconded the nomination. Lord MORPETH then came forward, and was received with loud applause by his friends, and with disapprobation by the blues. He said—Gentlemen, after no long interval of time I meet you here again, and I flatter myself that we now meet not as those who never met before. I now stand before you again, as within the 'last fortnight I have stood in every important town and place of this important Riding, before their congregated electors and inhabitants, to render up the charge they had committed to me, and to give up my guardianship of it to their scrutiny and their sentence, and, if these be not unfavourable, to solicit its renewal.—(Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, I have the honour of being confronted with the same opponent as before, and that he is a worthy one I trust is no less congenial to your feelings than I am sure it is to mine. With respect to the proceedings in Parliament in which I have been mainly concerned since I had the honour to be sent thither by your last decision between us, I have in England acted under the Government of Lord Melbourne.—(Cheers.) I have in Ireland formed part of the administration of Earl Mulgrave. Here at home in England I have supported a searching and complete reform of our Municipal Corpo rations, with a view to render them accessible and available for popular controul and popular benefit. I have assisted to effect such a general commutation of tithes as will ren der their burden less burdensome, and to render them effi cacious in their application to .their improvements in agri culture.—(Cheers and groans.) I have endeayoured to remove every obstacle which was obnoxious to the con sciences, or grating to the feelings of our Dissenting brethren. I have lent my cordial aid to every attempt that has been made to extend the efficiency, and heighten the purity of the Established Church—( Loud cheers, and cries of " Oh, oh !")—and I have given my latest votes for a further di minution of capital punishments. I have been called upon to labour more particularly in the sphere of Irish politics. Gentlemen, the soil of Ireland has long been the booty of successful invasion, and the prey of contending fac tions. One species of property alone has survived them— the property of the Church, the patrimony of the poor.— (Cheers and groans.) Now, it so happ ens th a t an im mense majority of the Irish people profess one form of re ligious faith, and that some proportion including the most destitute portion of the most destitute community on the face of the globe. Now it happens that all the revenues which had been given by munificence and liberality in former ages to minister to the spiritual wants of all have been appropriated not in proportion to the numbers, the poverty, or the ignorance of the people, but solely to the uses of a scanty proportion of the great mass—that por tion whose constant boast is that it engrosses all the wealth, the education, and the learning of the country—and concluded, therefore, that it was right not to deprive the small minority of its more than share—but to apply a slight offshoot of the national fund to the use . of the majority— to allow some small dribblets to stray from the resources of the lords of castles and of acres to refresh the hamlet and enlighten the cabin.—(Vehement cheering.) Every at tempt, however, of this nature has been fiercely opposed and perseveringly thwarted by the Tory, or, as it is called, the Conservative party in Parliament, and I find that Mr. Wortley fully concurs in and abets this policy.—(Cheers and groans.) Gentlemen, I have mentioned to you the Reform of the English Corporations ; abuses, far more extensive and shameless than those which existed there, ex isted and are acknowledged to exist in the Corporations of Ireland. We attempted to extend a corresponding reform to Ireland because we felt that the Irish people had received a so lemn national compact and pledge that they should be ad mitted to all the privileges of the people of England. Here, Gentlemen, the same Tory party step in again, acting on this occasion under the special guidance of Lord Lynd hurst, backed by Princely, and now Royal Cumberland.— (Laughter.) And they say that till they are satified that the exclusive possession of Church property shall be re moved beyond danger—that is, till every attempt to effect a more fair distribution of its revenues be defeated, they will not entertain the abstract and independent question of a reform of the crying corruptions of the Irish Corporate system ; and Mr. Wortley has identified himself with the policy of the Tory party, and the leadership of Lord Lynd hurst. Gentlemen, I have also done my best to introduce a system of legal relief for the poor of Ireland. Now, I need not say a word more on this subject, for as far as re lates to an Irish Poor-law, there is no dispute between me and. Mr. Wortley or his party. Indeed, I fancy that as far as the English Poor-law is concerned, there is little prac ' tical difference in the eourse that either of us would pursue.

In about an hour after this period, we were enabled, by making a con siderable detour, to get out of the town, matters for the moment being a little more tranquil, and the High Sheriff being in the act of addressing the surrounding crowd, for the purpose of endeavouring to restore order. Not less than 50,000 could hare been engaged at one time in this fearful battle. WORCESTERSHIRE—(MONDAY.) The election for the West Division of the county took place to-day, when the Hon. Colonel Henry Beauchamp Lygon, and Henry J. Winnington, Esq., the old Members, were returned without opposition. The former Member is a Conservative, the latter a supporter of the Queen's Go vernment. NORTH LANCASHIRE. LANCASTER, MONDAY, JULY 31.—This being the day appointed fbr electing two knights of the shire to represent the northern division of the county of Lancaster in the Imperial Parliament, the Court-house was crowded at an early hour, and at 10 o'clock precisely the proceedings were opeped by the Sheriff, J. W. Crosse, Esq. The usual forms having been gone through, The thou SHERIFF declared Lord Stanley and Mr. Wilson Patten duly elected as Representative s for the northern division of the county of Lancaster, and the pro ceedings terminated with the usual forms. NORTH HANTS. WINCHESTER, JULY 31.—The election for the Northern Division of the county of Hants took place here to-day. It was intended for some days past by the Tories to start another candidate in opposition to Mr. Charles Shaw Le fevre ; but finding there was not the remotest chance of success they relinquished the idea. There being no opposing candidate the Returning-officer declared Mr. Lefevre and Sir W. Heathcote duly- elected. Mr. Lefevre, in consequence of the death of an only son, was unable to be present. One Reformer and one Tory are thus returned for the Northern division of Hants, leav ing its representation exactly as it was. HADDINGTONSHIRE. HADDINGTON, JULY 29.—The nomination of the can didates, Mr. Fergusson, of Raith, and Lord Ramsay, took place this day. Sir DAVID BAIRD proposed, and Sir THOMAS DICK LADDER seconded, the nomination of Mr. Fergusson. Mr. HUNTER, of Thurston, proposed Lord Ramsay, ai d Mr. HOWDEN, of Lawhead, seconded the nomination. Mr. FERGUSSON, who was received with entlausistic cheering, then addressed the electors, and was followed by Lord RAMSAY. At the conclusion of his Lordship's speech the Sheriff called for a show of hands, which he declared to be in favour of Mr. Fergusson, when Lord Ramsay demanded a poll. in point of numbers, completely routed their. Along one side of Wood-street where the ha,tirgs were erected, runs a parapet wall of brick-work, s !parat ing the street from an adjoining field, about eiz,lit or ten feet lower than the ground, which had, till the movement we are describing, csntained several thousands of the Orange party. Many thousands of the same party were also engaged in the dreadful conflict which was going on in the street ; these latter when overpowered by their opponents, rushed tumultuously and precipitately across the wall into the field below. Masses of men and women were seen to hurl themselves from the parapet des perately, regardless of the dangerous depth below, and many evidently suffered severely from the wounds inflicted by their indiscriminating and merciless antagonists. In this rush, a considerable portion of the wail gave way, and unfortunately its materials furnished the retreating party with the means of renewing the warfare in a mode which most seriously involved the safety of all within reach of their dangerous missiles. They armed themselves with brick bats, and breaking them in halves for the convenience of throwing them, but by no means out of mercy for the lives of others, they discharged them with furious effect, and in some instances with too sure an aim against all within their reach. The Blues now retaliated with the same weapons, availing themselves of another brick wall in the neighbour hood of their position for a supply of ammunition. At length they gained the advantage of this encounter also, and drove the discomfited Orange party before them, not only from the street and the field already mentioned, but also from all the outlets adjoining, and they now ap peared complete masters of the field. But it was evident that the cessation of hostilities caused by this temporary success could not be of long duration. The Orange forces were again seen mustering in immense strength in the dis tance, and without much delay they presented themselves in a huge and threatening mass at the end of Wood-street, filling the area of the High-street and Market-place. At first they advanced slowly and cautiously, sending a few stones as an earnest of their more terrible determination. Some skirmishes took place between detached parties, but speedily the Orange body rushed forward with overwhelm ing impetuosity, driving the Blues before them in their turn, and taking possession of their positions. And now this dread ful commotion was at its highest. These ferocious men, elated by their success, seemed determined to spare neither friend nor foe. Showers of stones came incessantly pouring into the hustings, and the situation of all persons there became imminently perilous, the more so as no apparent means of escape presented themselves, for it would have been al mo.st certain destruction to have attempted to make a re treat from the ground while either party remained upon it. It may be unnecessary to observe, that during the whole of the conflict, the proceedings of the election were com pletely suspended ; but it now became evident that it would be necessary to terminate them altogether, in order to avert the most awful consequences, and to put a stop to the shedding of human blood. A renewed shower of brickbats brought the matter to an issue. The High She riff hastily declared that a show of hands should be dis pensed with, and that a poll being demanded on behalf of all the candidates, it should take place on Thursday morn ing. A rapid and general retreat was then commenced from the hustings. It happened providentially that an open space, scarcely two feet in width, was left along the back of this temporary building, which opened upon the roof of a vestibule attached to the Court-house. Through this opening hundreds squeezed themielves, and flung their bodies at length upon the roof, being thus sheltered, in some measure, by the hustings, and by the parapet walls about them. But even this asylum soon proved insufficient and showers of brick bats still continued to descend there, and many persons were severely wounded. No resource was now left save to force a way into the Court-house,_and A „," ~. ~. ~' ~~
