His canvass has been unin terrupted—his expenditure unimitated—his agents well paid— his influence unbounded—his energy quite juvenile; but, alas I for my Hon. Friend, the fire of patriotism still burns brightly —and all his efforts remind me of a stanza in" The Rejected Addresses" : " All, all in va i n , Water turns steam; Each blazing beam Hisses defiance to the torified spout ; It seems hut too plain nothing can put it out." I, on the contrary, having done my duty to the electors, have left them freely to choose a representative. I have considered that they are still the same generous friends to freedom, civil and religious, in name and spirit ; that they are animated by a true Protestant spirit, not a spurious Protestantism, which denies the right of private judgment, which would persecute if it could and dared ; that, in fact, that they are still ena moured of the bright and cheerful countenance of Reform, and loathe the dark and sinister aspect of Hanoverian politics. i On this rely. I commit the cause of liberty to their keepers in confidence as to the result. That will be wort , h 3 y lasr oi Lambeth and the cause of freedom. ]During the time the Hon. Member was speaking, a placard gas placed upon the hustings announcing the state of the poll at eleven o'clock in the City to be as follows ,4 G : Gi r s u 7i t 6ro e ..: eF4 'Phis will se ; onwod C anes r ag a r: ;: c : u f e u trii r eti. d ede , dht oep4v with , 2 dartt shthd:edarr; Bill op address P s al greatl 014 Palmer." the oit cheering, s. h n , e, questions - i r'iet t c e et n soNt i r l isi g o.:bs t du h ''t e l d nl7 u 3u r ci a rb : r uproar occurred.

For a reduction in the profligate grant of 100,000/. per annum to the Queen Dowager ? Ms. 13aeowte having obtained a hearing, said he had been called on by a great number of electors to present himself to their notice. Many of those respe, table persons complained that they had not only been not represented, but they had been m'ssepresented.—( Leud opposition) This was not a ques tion of party, b ut p r i nc i p l e . He had been charged in the most inconsistent manner with being an enemy to th e Queen and Toryism. Ha had always understood that it was the duty of a Tory to support the Throne. He had reae•:ed the age of 76, and during ltis lifehad been an advocate for the monarchy, therefore it was not likely he should desert our young and amiable Queen. Gentlemen who opposed him us ere desirous of having our political structure placed on:a wide basis, but lie suspected the object was to do away with that part of the constitution which protected the Church. —(•` Hear, hear," and cheering.) He was for the Constitution, the whole Constitution, and nothing but the Constitution.—(Cheers.) Every inroad upon that Constitu tion which might assume the name of Reform he should op pose He had been asked whether he would oppose the ir resp,nsibility of the House of Lore"; ? His answer was, No:— (Great confusion.) He considered the House of Lords as a barrier between the Crown and the people.—(Cheers.) Much had been said about his standing between the popularity of the Queen and the rights of the people. Who could doubt but that her present Majesty was popular?—(Cheers.) She was not old enough to have made an onemy.---( Cheers.) His general opinion of the constitution was this —if they supported a Monarchy, they must have a House of Lords.— (Cheers.) It was almost unnecessary to remind them that when the Crown had no Ilouse of Lords to stand between • Ceurt ag iinst us. Thank God the tables are turned, and the Reformers are now the frienes of the Government and the Court. Our youthful, amiable, and patriotic Queen is anxious :;ir the welters. nod I.appinces of the entire people. We, the Zeformers, were never the enemies of good order —we never contemplated clestSeyin g the Constitution. We have been viekedly and haSely Mee - feinted: We only were the enemies of a selfish and despotic faction who, although they had the government of the country in their hands, ind were the servants of the Crown, were, in fact, the seal and only enemies of the Crown, by the arbitrary and des potic nature of their meastiiree. Isere got that faction ,yithin our grasp at this moment, and we deseree to be op pressed fur the remainder of our lives, if we suffer them to conquer. That faction is now the enemy of the Queen, and the zealous end determined opposer of the Queen's Govern- I mint, Reform, and the people ; and only defend the Crown so long as the Crovrn will suffer them to carry on their own arbi trary and selfish measures. As soon as the Crown is deter mined to govern for the benefit of the people, and to maintain and support a liberal and reforming Ministry —which I do not hesitate to call the present, although 1 do nct agree with them on all points—then at that moment all their loyalty and pro fessed regard for the Crown expires. In justification of what I have stated—we have el! heard of an attempt to alter the succession of the Crown of these realms, before our young Qu een ascended the throne. Thanks to Providence, they were frustrated in their treacherous and abominable schemes. Had they attempted publicly to proceed with them, all England, Scotland, and Ireland would have risen up in arms as one man against them, and would have conquered or died in the just cruise of their lawful Queen and liberty. Gentlemen I I have no fears for the issue of this contest. The eyes of your country are upon you—great, indeed, will be your disgrace if you s u ff er y ourse l ves to b e entrapped, ea • j ded, or seduced by the enemy : you are the representatives of the non-electors ; perform your duty manfully and fearlessly ; record your votes for the liberal candidates, and put down at once and far ever the last chance of Toryism. M. HOPE, the returning officer, then called upon all those who were of opinion that Mr. D'Eyneourt should be their re presentative to signify the same by holding up their hands. Upon %Welt a forest of bands were held up on the part of the dense crowd which was standing before the booth, and all the ersons who were mounted on carriages, that formed a semi circle enclosin g the crowd o n f oo t, did the same. On a show o hands being called for Mr. Hawes, a similar scene was presented. In f avour o f M r . Baldwin, about twenty hands ,cote raised, amid shouts of laughter. The returning Offieer then declared the Right Honourable Tennyson D'Eyn court and Mr. Hapset duly elected. A poll was then de manded by some person cm the part of M. Baldwin. Mr. IkPLeon said, that as Mr. Baldwin called this a contest of principle, he hoped the electors would remember that It sees so, and obtain a triumph for the principles they professed, Mr. D'Ersconer thenlied the electors for the kind support they had given him. He reminded them that the cause of their eoentry would be at stake en the morrow, He hoped tisey tt=ddiLif,yreeles their private bus'ness for eight hours on the morrow. He had fie tletsbt of the result of the election, but he was anxious to have on their t id e so overwhelming a majo rity as would set an example to the rest of England._ (ellteeio—alie hoped the electors would do their duty to him as he prnmleed them he would do his duty towards them. He and hit Hon: colleague had formed no coalition, because they did net lthe td Seep to influence the votes of the electors by a coalition. But fisgf to to eqintily anxious for the return of each other.—(Cheers.)-11e hoped they would both beat by a vast majority, this straightforward but thundering T or y._ (.9hoess of laughter.)--He hoped the electere of Lambeth would prod that the," were as honest and as enthusiastic as any Ceestitueuey in Begiatelr-se( Cheers.) Mr, ljapi 3 eam6 fOrliatd timid loud cheering, and said, mark the departed batinefe df the defeated faction.—(Cheers.) Then will their hopes depart tessredricdws they had heard Mr. Baldwin speak of the respect in whiell ha' held private and in dividual rights and opinions. It was to be (greened that he had not carried his theory into practice and avoid all attempts at ihtlmidating the elector.—Cheers.) His speech, however, would have ti good ett!et, and would increase the majori7 of to-morrow. He would now did them adieu, but before leaving h' would repeat that he was as ardent a friend of the consti tution as any man.—( Cheers.) The Conetittition, in his sense of the term, comprehended civil and religions liberty, not only In mune but in .spirit.—(Great cheering.) On these principles he stood before them 1 and while the people were With him, he would never quail before the foe.—(Tremendous cheering.) He would not be satisfied, unlg thelection was decid e d before ten o'clock to-morrew. The Hon. „ Gentleman then moved a vote of thanks to the Returning Officer, which being carried by acclamation, the meeting then separated, amid loud cries of " Be early at the poll to-morrow." it and the people, the head of the Monarch rolled upon the ,caffold --(Hear.) The question was, whether they ought to support the fundamental principles of the constitution, or give way to innovation, which must lead to r ;volution. He defied them to show a single line in the Standa-d against the liberties of the people.—(Tremendous uproar.) Reform had been anticipated in the Standard, and there it had long since been admitted that reform was absolutely necess try. He could prove it—it was extant.—( A voice—. I want to ask you a question.) He would answer no question.— ( Hear, and loud laughter.) The Honourable Gentleman then proceeded, amidst the greatest noise, which rendered him almost inaudible, to sa; that he and his friends had al ways been the advocates of the people. He would mention many instances in which they had supported the people. He and his party were the advocates of improvement and of the Constitution, but they would not go beyond the sacred limits of the Constitution ; and he would resist all innovations that went beyond those sacred limits by every means in his power. Ile would be successful in the election, if there was any truth in promises.—( Shouts of laughter, and tremendous uproar.) He called upon his friends to be at the polling-booths to-mor row morning et an early hour, and to assert their conscientious principles, and place him in a commanding positi in on the pi;ll.—(Great uproar, and cheers.) Mr. MAci.eon—Electors of Lambeth, you are now called upon to perform a great and important duty ; and I have no doubt that you will discharge that duty conscientiously and fearlessly. You are now by your votes to declare whether you will return to Parliament men of liberal and enlightened principles, who have been, a n d s till are, the advocates cf pro gressive reform—the tried friends of liberty—qie boll and consistent defenders of the rights of the people; or whether on the other hand you will retu rn men w h o are opposed to the go vcrnme::t of the many, and who are the advocates of the des potis n of the few—who have been the enemies of all reform— who are the friends and supporters of the King of Hanover, whose very first act has been to destroy the Constitution which it was his duty to protect and cherish. Thera never was a more favourable time for Reformers than the present. Unfor tunately we have generally had the misfortune to have had the TOWER HAMLETS. The nomination of Candidates for the representation of the borough of the Tower Hamlets was appointed for to day at twelve o'clock. No opposition being offered to the late Mem bers, the authorities contented themselves with a few waggons, in lieu of hustings—we have to thank them, however, for the accomm )(lotion afforded to the Pre:•s. No contest being expected, the:o was but little excitement until the arrival of the Candidates, which took place a few minutes past twelve o'clock—they were accompanied by bands of music. The usual oaths were then administered to the returning officer, the Act against Bribery was read, and Mr. lieetemem, the returning offieer, stated the reason for which the electors- had been nssembled. He said the election had taken place in consequence of the lamented deeth of our late King, William the Fourth. He however was suc ceeded by a young Queen, who had been educated by her illustrious mother, in a manner which gave hope of her reign being one of the most glorious of any written in British history.—( Cheers.) GEORGE ()Free, Esq. then came forward to propose Dr. Lushington. He was sure that theTowerliamlets would do their duty as they had done before. So well had they done so on former occasions that he understood that no one was to come forward that day, and attempt to oppose them—no one was to come forward and nail his handkerchief to a stick, and call it the national colours ; but as they were not to have opposition, he would abstain from calling names. It was their duty to return men who would clean the Constitution, as Westminster Hall had been done. Some few years ago it was hung round with cobwebs—now it was cleaned, and re stored to all its beauty. So he wanted to see the Constitution renovated.—(Cheers.) He, as a Dissenter, and of a Dissenting family, wished to see the churches filled with true worshippers; but they (the Dissenters) also wished to stand upon an equal footing with the Churchmen because difference of opinion should never strip a man of any of his political rights. Ile was anxious to be able to send his boys to the Colleges in England, in place of sending them to those either of Germany or France— ( Cheers)—where their religion might be tampered with—it ought to have nothing to do with the education. lie had great pleasure in nominating a mar, after his own heart, though he was a Churchman—( Laughter) —he meant that consistent sereant of the borough Dr. Lushington. It was to the honour of the borough, that they had had two such men— men who were respected both in public and private life—to represent them in Parliament. Ile trusted that the electors would do their duty to their young and interesting Queen, by re-electing their old and tried representatives, who would give her Ministers all the support in their power. With great pleasure he proposed Stephen Lushington, Esq., as a fit aid proper person to represent the borough in Parlia ment.—( Cheers.) GEORGE Plerice, Esq., seconded the nomination. Before he came forward to do so, he had made it his business to find out what opinions the candidates held upon the subject of the Poor Lew Bill—they were both decidedly in favour of the abolition of the plurality of voting clauses. .liiess SIMPSON, Esq., then came formard to nominate M. Clay. Mr. Clay's character was before the electors of the largest borough in the empire, and it was so good as to need no cola cy from him before one of the most intelligent of con stitu meies of the country.-4 Cheers and laughter.) lie agreed with all that had been said, and he hoped that the una nimity which had existed between both parties would long continue.--( Cheers.) fie had great pleasure in nominating William Clay, Esq., to serer the borough of the Tower Ham lets in the ensuing; Parliament. W. COATES, Esq., seconded the nomination. A call had been made upon them by the highest and fairest Lady in the land, and he trusted they would respond to that call in the manner which she had given evidence of her wishes. Unlike htituti of Hanover—( Hisses)— s h e wanted t o s t an d b y t h e Con son( Cheers )—and to meet her people. He saw that the city of London was about to do ;itself the honour of in viting her Majesty to a banquet.-_( Hear, hear.) Did they think th at they would furl a Minist er , lik e h e of Welling ton, to say that she would be in danger by trusting 'to the loyalty of the people of London._( The electors thoadrespernetsetontParliament two honest and au indepee nt gentlemen and their consistent conduct had led to the present uncontested election. The Tories as a body he de tested, because they represented themselves as they were not. First, they changed their names ; they were Tories; now they were Conservativee ; he disliked a li ases o f a ll ki n d s ; t h en aga i n they us e d religion as a stalking horse for 'political purposes. (Groans. ) Again they said they were Reformers—those who opposed the Reform Bill. The enfranchisement of the Me tropolitan boroughs were now Reformers—( Laughter)—but it was only in consequence of the signs of the times, and for the purposes of deception. II wine said so much upon gene ral topic s , h e would then come to the last duty he had to per form, whi c h was to say something of the character and eon of Mr. Cl a y. H e b e d g i ven him the weight _ tr su ch as it • w a s— o f hi e support, before he was ied; and therefore he had watched his conduct throughout his career in Parliament, and found that it was strictly in accord ance with his first professions.—(Cheers ) He hal not much obtruded on Parliament, bat he had worked as hard as a Com mittee-man, where the great business of the nation was done with great pleasure. Therefore he seconded the nomination of Willia m Clay, Esq.—s ton, he was sure, to be M. I'. The RETURNING OFFICER then inquired if any elector had any other candidate to propose ? No answer being returned, Dr. LUSITINGTON then stood forward, and was received with loud cheers. lit stood there again as a candidate for their favours, in order to his being again tent into the House of Commons. Ha appeared before them unchanged ir, prin cciiiiadnes;:cda:ld _(HearhetrtTed that l es wou ld fi n d them also un- Am3ngst the first principles he had Professed when he stood before them as a candidate he stated his anxious desire that Parliaments should be more frequent, and since then his votes had always been in favour of triennial P arliarnente.—( Lou I cheers.) He bad said that it indispen sable for the freedom of election that the Ballot should be es blished._( Cheers.) Upon that question he had twice spoken and had always voted for Cheers.) They had been beaten by numbers, not by argument. It wee satisfactory to knel thtet the numbers in favour of the measure were allays increaiing. t'prin those questions he had unhappiiy been opposed to the Govertimatt. He was mit happy to say that upon other occasions he had been ettabled to give them his support. He was attached to the Church, but mast etrongly in favour of relieving the Dissenters from those berJens, to the payment of which they were conscientiously opposed. Though he was a Churchman, he was not the slave of the Church, nor wedded to any of its abuses.—( Cheers.) lle would try all in Ns power to reform the Church, in order that it might be made more in accordance with the word of God, I and that it might be made more useful towards the spiritual education of the people. In political feeling he coincided more ffith the Dissenters than with the Church, for the Dissenting body for thirty years had nobly seconded his efforts for the abo lition of slavery, while the Church, the high Church party, were lukewarm in the cause. The time was very auQpicious, but still the Reformers must be on the alert, There was one question which must be agitated in the new Parliament— it was a question deeply affecting every man's interest. There was no man more anxious than he was—there was no one who felt more the necessity of adhering strictly to the sue cession of the Crown.—( Cheers.) Upon all ordinary occa sions the succession must be strictly adhered to, but there might be a combination of circumstances which might make it necessary to alter that succession. There might he circumstances which would render an alteration in the succession necessary. In the new Parliament it must become a question whether tile King of Hanover should be excluded from the succession.— ( Loud cheers.) He said nothing about private character—h e said nothing- about his being a Tory and the supporter of all abuses—( Hear, hear)—but he spoke of him as having taken a prominent part in the Orange Lodges, with, as he fully believed, with the intention of setting aside the present occupant of the Throne.—(Loud cheers and groans.) His political principles were the same as they had ever been; and if the electors of the largest and most influential boroughs of the kingdom returned him again, they would find him using all his efforts not only for their benefit, but for the benefit of the community at large.—( Cries of " Hear.") Mr. CLAY then came forward, and said that he stood be fore them, fur the third time, as a candidate for their suf frages. lie was surrounded by the same friends as stood by him on the first occasion, and therefore he had no fear of asking a renewal of their favours. After recapitulating the important events of the last !three Sessions, the Hon. Gentleman said that his principles were unchanged—he had acted as an inde pendent Member; and if again returned, his line of conduct would be the same. He was decidedly in favour of doing strict justice to Ireland, and of allowing that coun try to participate in all the blessings and benefits enjoyed by this country. If returned, he would go into the House of Commons as the representative, not of a party, but as the representative of 400,000 independent men. He was not for speculative changes, nor would lie give up one iota of the British Constitution, but at the same time he was prepared to reform every abuse, to redress any grievance ; but at the same time acting through the channels of the Constitution. He was prepared the give the utmost extension to sacred principles of civil and religious liberty.—( Cheers. ) We regret we have not space to give the speeches of the Candidates more at length, but the crowded state of our columns, where opposition has been offered to the old Members, prevents us from doing that justice which we should have been otherwise inclined to do. The Returning Officer then called for a show of hand s , when Messrs. Lushington and Clay were again declared Members for the Borough of the Tower Hamlets. The two Members returned thanks. Thanks were then given to the Returning Officer, who ac knowledged the compliment, when the meeting separated.

He continues indefatigable in personally solicit int , the suffrages of the electors, and " gathers golden opinions" from all sides. At the county meeting held at Oxford to address the Queen last Tuesday, his speech was the theme of admiration, even from his political opponents. At the annual wool fair at Dorchester, or, the following day, notwithstanding the attempt of the chair man, Mr. Ashurst, to prohibit political discussion, such was the enthusiasm of the company, they would not be deprived of hearing the expression of his sentiments, and his health was drank amidst rapturous applause. The result of his canvass in the town, after, proved their opinions to be in accordance with his own. On Thursday he addressed the freeholders in the Town-hall, Henley, who attended in great numbers to hear his exposition of the prevailing topics of importance ; in the course of which he strongly insisted upon the necessity of pro tection to the taxed British farmer against the competition of the untaxed foreign farmer. His elucidation of the wishes of Ministers in regard to Church -rates, and the Irish Church and Municipal Curporations, were clearly defined ; and at the c in clusion he was greeted with a storm of applause such as the Hall has seldomi resounded to. We do not hesitate to say this county will throw off the thraldom of Toryism, which has been its disgrace for'so many years. POOLE. --The nomination for the town and county of Poole took place yesterday. The Liberal candidates were Charles Ponsonby, Esq., son of the late Member for Dorset, and G. B. Phillips, Esq., (the late Member for Kidderminster). The two Tories were Sir J. Walsh and Sir 11. Willoughby. On the show of hands there was an immense majority In fa vour of Ponsonby and Phillips. However, the Sheriff, John Adey, Esq., who is a violent Tory, in utter 'defiance of the solemn oath he had taken, and common fairness decided for Willoughby and Walsh, who will be regularly thrashed at the poll, which takes place to-morrow.

The only chance for the Tory is to be found in the splitting of the Reform interest : the only danger for the Re f, r.ncis is in supporting the weakest instead of the strongest of the candidates. We put aside the question of merit alto gether —we have been anxitnia to ascertain who is the most likely to concentrate the greatest in opposition to the Tories. We are quite convinced that in this point of view the two men to Le supported are Sir Samuel Whalley and Mr. Hall, wl.ose conduct in Parliament has entitled both to the support of all Reformers. A INT. Durocher, who went to Capri to make searches, at his own expense, for buried remains of the ancient arts, has been rewarded by the discovery of a bust of Virgil marble, in perfect preservation, and exhibiting a most beautiful specimen of Roman sculpture. Its authenticity is verified by the name of the Roman poet being engraved at the bottom. It is said to bear a most striking resemblance to the features of Talma, particularly when expressing the melancholy traits of Hamlet or Orestes. M. Durocher, on being presented to the King of Naples, and thanking him for his protection, ventured to recommend his Majesty to continue the excavations at Capri, bt lag convinced that they would produce treasures as valuable as those found at Herculaneum or Pompeii.

The police mmed'at.ly took possession of them, as well as of several addressed to Legiti:natists of distinction. One of the letters, it is said, was addressed to the Prince Royal of Prussia.

A CUIIIOUs INSTANCE OF SUPERSTITION.— As we were procnding on our course, a small car,o! came alongside, containing an old woman, the mother of a man of colour nanvo.l John Thomas, who had acted in the capacity steward on b)ai d the Q:torra. She had a small quantity of fish with he:. We d'd not st ty for her, but threw a trifling d tsh into her cano at whhh the old lady appeared ve - y much hart, and began to cry most piteously. M.-. Land r feeling hurt at her situa-ion, determiLed to reconduct h, r to Eggs (Norte country), oltich was her native land, as sorn as we re turned thither. A circumstanc:" occurred to this poor woman, which is stro.,glr characte istic r f blind superstit on of the natives of this Fart of Afriea. This poorer r e c a n ture r_ imagined that she possessed a maybong (charm), which d,d her in vulnerable :0 all edge-tools and cutting instrumen's. So po sitive and co..vineed was she in the efficacy of her tit rr, that she voluntarily asseaud to hold her lt-g whilst some person should strike it v,it!i an axe. The Ki.ig (or chief) of Ler town, on hearing this, determined to try the p-kvcr of her charm, and de'i.ed a man to take an axe, and see w:7.9ther this won derful niaghotty would protect her from its effects; consider ing that if it did so, such a charm would be of great advantage in war. Her leg was laid on a block, and a powerful blow . was given below the knee. The result of which was as might have been expected. To the poor woman's great horror, and the terror of all present, her leg flew to the other side of the room. But she survived it, and now crawled about on her knees. I determined on making application at Fernando for a wooden on for the poor creature, as soon as we returitld. —Lnird's Narrative of the Expedition in'o the Interior of Africa.
