We have so often had occasion to speak of the attractions of this celebrated meeting, and of the good taste conspicuous in its various details, that we shall not exclude other matter by dwelling on them at present. It will suffice for us to state that the records of the turf may be searched in vain for a meeting where, in the space of four days, so many important prizes have been competed for as in the one about to commence. Their number is not alone remarkable—their value and interest are still more so, as the following summary will show. First day (Wednesday), the Drawing Room Stakes, the Levant Stakes, the Goodwood Stakes, and the 300 sovs. Stakes, amounting to nearly 60,0001. ; third day, the Goodwood Cup, the Racing Stakes, and the Molecomb Stakes, about 3001. more ; and on the last day, the splendid Waterloo shield, confessedly the most tasteful, valuable and interesting prize ever presented for competition. In addition to these there will be Lord Albe marle's Cup, the Duke of Richmond's Plate, and several others, swelling the total to nearly 12,0001. The number of arrivals at Chichester, Petworth, Bognor, and the other towns and vil lages within ten or a dozen miles of the Park, and the high prices demanded for beds, horses, and stalls, furnish strong evidence of the interest excited. His Grace the Duke of Richmond entertains a large party during the races.

There will be a vacancy in Lady Dacre's school for a boy in September, Alderman Hunter's presentation ; and two vacancies in December for girls—Aldermen Scholey and Birch will have the presentations.

Children are entitled who reside in the city or liberties of Westminster. The account of the decease of his late Majcsty was received at Gibraltar by the Blazer steamer, on the Bth July. The Governor-General, Sir A. Woodford, immediately assem bled the authorities and principal inhabitants together, and swore allegiance to Queen Victoria. At day light the fallow ing morning the garrison fired GO minute guns, with the colours hoisted half-staff, and the same number were fired by the Orestes and Childers sloops of war, and 30 by the Nereide, Sardinian brig of war. At one o'clock the flags were hoisted to the heads of the masts, the garrison was assembled, and the Queen was proclaimed in due form, under salutes of 41 guns from each of the batteries and ships, including the French sloop Alcihiade, and the Neapolitan frigate Ur anie, and a feu -de joie by the troops. At the date of the last advices (July 20th) the garrison and inhabitants of Gibraltar were quite healthy. THE FRENCH IN AFRICA.—The Garde National of Marseilles publishes the following of the 9th instant, from Oran :—" The trade of Oran, which had been almost annihi lated by the continuance of hostilities, has begun to revive since the ratification of the treaty. Provisions are abundant ; different objects of exchange are again appearing in the mar kets, and a diminution of more than one-half is already per ceptible in the price of meat, oil, fowl, and, in short, all that had been rendered scarce, and consequently dear, through our nonintercourse with the tribes. Every circumstance an nounces that after the harvest we shall obtain results not always gained by victory ; that is to say, a free trade with the people of the country, the sole mode of civilizing them, and of establishing ourselves securely in the good opinion of the neighbouring tribes, as well as on the soil which the natives no longer dispute with us. Abdel Bader neglects no oppor tunity of showing his desire for the maintenance of peace. It is a mistake to suppose that he has gained an accession of power or influence by the treaty ; for, amongst his barbarous tribes, who settle every thing with the sabre, he could he aggrandized by war alone. Could we confer on him still greater authority than he already enjoys over the tribes, and a still greater right to the territory, the tribes would not recognise such concessions. When we reflect that the war, which they considered sacred, as being waged against in fidels, rallied round the Emir a number of rival chiefs,jealous of his power, we must admit that, independently of the incon testable advantages of peace, it was good policy to deprive a dangerous enemy, who could almost baffle the power of our arms, of the means and opportunities of extending his influence, and incessantly disputing our conquests. In this point of view peace diminishes the power of the Emir ; and unless he turn legislator an d re f ormer, a c h ange w hi c h hi s f ana ticism renders highly improbable, he will again sink into the sphere whence he had momentarily emerged, in consequence of our incessant and useless c ontests. Th e general, w h ose act i v i ty i s sur prising, especially in all that relates to the welfare of the soldiery, labours unremittingly for the consolidation of his work. He hopes to return to France in a few days, and after performing quarantine at Mahon, will land at Port- Vendres." On Saturday night last the village of Holmes Chapel was thrown into great confusion in consequence of the unfortunate death of Thomas Lowe, who was killed whilst fighting with a man of the name of Dale. His death was caused by a fracture of the skull , —Atanchester Times. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 2, 1837. MIDDLESEX ELECTION. the public service in ►which be had been the means of rd. forming, and the profligate expenditure and jobbing in which he had long endeavoured to put an end to.—(Cheers.) It was true that some had taken offence that he (Mr. Hume) had not canvassed them. They said that if a vote were worth having it was worth asking for. Now, he had conceived a higher notion of the feelings of the electors. He thought that they would discharge their trust without fear on the one hand, or solicitation on the other.— ( Hear and cheers.) Ile asked them to return himself and Mr. Byng, not as a favour, but for their own (the people's) interest. They had tried them long, and if they thought that Mossrs. Pownall and Wood would serve them better, why, let them return them.—(Cheers.) Mr. Hume then went into an explanation of the Russian Loan Bill, on which it was alleged that he said he would vote " black and white." When he found that he could not carry his point, which was to save the people's money, sooner than throw his influence on the Tory side, which would haver used it to oust the Liberal administration, he yielded it, and said, that although he knew he was voting for what was the same as saying black was white, still he should do so rather than deliver the destinies of the country into the hands of the Tories.—(Loud and long-continued cheers.) Mr. Flume then advocated the necessity of the ballot and Triennial Parliaments ; and having passed a warm eulogy on the character of the Queen and her Ministers, whose ob ject was to improve the condition of the people and to re form the institutions of the country, congratulated the people on having escaped the rule of the present King of Hanover, who might have succeeded to the throne. He hoped that an honest House of Commons would pass a Bill excluding him from every chance of that succession.—(Hear, hear.) If no other Member should . bring in that Bill, if the electors of Middlesex returned him, he should do so himself.—( Loud cheers.) The people . should not be too confident of their strength ; they should look to the disastrous result of the East Surrey election, and remember, that, as they were to be hard pressed in Mid dlesex, every man who had a vote should feel that perhaps on himself the fate of the county depended.--(Cheers.) Mr. WOLLETON, after some prefatory observations, complimentary of the Reform candidates, proposed a resolu tion of confidence in them, and expressive of the determina tion of the electors to return them for the county of Mid dlesex. A very numerous and respectable meeting of the free holders of the county of Middlesex was held yesterday at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate.street, to take measures for securing a fit and proper representative of the metropo litan county in the ensuing Parliament. The meeting was called for two o'clock, and shortly after that hour Mr. Byng and Mr. Hume entered the room, and were most enthusi astically received. Alderman LAINSON being called to the chair, said he had a very pleasing duty to perform in calling the attention of the meeting to their two late worthy representatives, who were again candidates for their suffrages. He had the greatest confidence in the talent, the intelligence, the perseverance, and the manly conduct of their two candi dates, and he was sure that their future conduct would be perfectly in unison with their former life, and that they would do all in their power, as they had always done, to advance the best interests of the whole com munity.—(Loud cheers.) J. WILKS. Esq., came forward to move the first resolu tion, to the effect that the valuable services gnd consistent conluct of Messrs. Byng and Hume, throughout a long series of years, had fully entitled them to the gratitude and entire confidence of the electors of the county of Mid dlesex, for having uniformly proved themselves the un compromising and indefatigable enemies of all national abuses, the unflinching advocates of economy in all the de. partments in the State, and the able and zealous supporters of all measures calculated to promote and extend civil and religious liberty.—(Loud cheers.) He had known both the worthy candidates for many years ; they had both been the supporters of the popular cause, and the advocates of re form when reform was not the fashion ; and was it to be endured that now, when the principles of reform were triumphant, those who most ably contributed to that triumph were to be deprived of ther share of the honour attached to it ? He begged more particularly to im press on the dissenting body the justice and the propriety of using every effort in support of those who had shown by their conduct in Parliament that they enter tained a clear and enlightened knowledge of the true prin ciples of religious liberty.—(Loud cheers.) He would only trouble them with one more observation. He had heard with surprise and regret that some Reformers, or persons who call themselves Reformers, intended to give plumpers on the present occasion, some to Mr. Byng and some to Mr. Hume. Non, such infatuation could not be too strongly deprecated, and he would boldly and fearlessly say that no honest Reformer could be guilty of such con duct at such a crisis as the present.—(Cheers.) Alderman WOOD, M.P., rose to second the resolution. He said that he could assure the electors of Middlesex, from his own personal knowledge, that it would be impos sible for them to find representatives who would do their duty as Messrs. Byng and Hume had done.—(Cheers.) The resolution was then put and carried unanimously, amidst loud cheers. The resolution was received with loud applause. After which, a vote of thanks having been passed to the Thairman, the meeting separated. COUNTY OF HADDINGTON. JULY 29.--The nomination of candidates (Mr. Fergu son, of Raith, and Lord Ramsay) for the county of Had dington, took place this day. The town was early in a state of activity, and although the day was very inauspi cious, the rain falling constantly and heavily, there could not be fewer than one thousand eight hundred persons in front of the hustings. Sir DAVID BAIRD presented himself and spoke to the following effect :—After an interval of upwards of two years I have once more the honour to stand forward on the hustings, again to nominate Mr. Ferguson as our Repre sentative in the next Parliament.---(Cheers.) So strong do I feel the claim which he has on the county, that I do not hesitate to say that he ought to be backed up by such a phalanx of the independent tenantry as to prove to the Tory party th a t th e p r i nc ipl es w hi c h th ey pro f ess are repu diated by the great majority of the constituency of the county of Haddington.—(Cheers.) He has other valua ble claims on you for support. He is a tried, and has been a consistent politician. He has never swerved from the principles which lie has all along professed. In the mean tame the Tories, the truly beloved friends, as they call them selves, of the great majority of the people, the great sup porters of the House of Lords, fully aware of the despe rate nature of thrir cause, are determined, as the saying is, to die hard. They are stretching every nerve, and leaving no stone unturned to prop up their falling cause, to gain that ascendancy in the management of affairs which they lost by their own obstinacy and misconduct. When argu ment fails them they resort to artifice to enlist on their side the prejudice of the people. Such is the cry of " the Church in danger," which they have endeavoured to raise against some of the measures introduced into Parliament (but if the Church is in danger at all, it is so from the impolcy of political pastors), one of which you know pro posed the extension of the same municipal privileges in Ire land, as we enjoy in England and Scotland.—(Cheers.) Although they have been called " aliens" they are our fel low countrymen ; and although they are Catholics, they are our fellow Christians.—(Cheering.) They are refused the election of their own Magistrates ; and the reason assigned for this is that they are Catholics. But may we not learn a lesson and take warning when we behold what is passing around us, when we reflect on the late act of the illustrious personage who is a member of that party, and who now rules our late Hanoverian fellow subjects, and threatens their liberties ?—(Loud cheers.) With this specimen of the spirit of our own Tories, together with that example, that conclusive evidence, of the Conservative despotism of that illustrious and much-cherished member of that body, I ask every man if there is not ground of alarm lest the liber ties we enjoy be not trodden under foot, like those of our late Hanoverian brethren, by the royal Conservative who, un fortunately for their liberties, now governs them ? What guarantee, I would like to ask, have we that our rights and privileges will continue to be respected, should that party again ,get into power ? Once more I 1).!.g to propose as your representative Mr. Ferguson.—(lmmense cheering.) Mr. BYNG rose to return thanks, and was loudly cheered. He said that after having had the honour of re presenting them for so many years, nothing was so gratify ing to him as to find he still retained their friendship and confidence.—(Loud cheers.) Indeed he thought he might, without vanity or presumption, say that he deserved it.— (Immense cheering.) He had from the earliest period of his life been the advocate of all the great measures which had been carried only within the last six or seven years.— (Cheers.) From the earliest part of his life he had been a determined friend to civil and religious liberty, and that at a time when the Dissenters themselves did not come for ward to support their own cause as they might have been expected to have done. He might say the same with re gard to Parliamentary Reform. Ile had gone on for thirty or forty years with very little prospect of success, and to show that he did not advocate those measures in order to influence the opinions of the electors of Middlesex, he might state that for many years he had been acting con trary to the opinions of the majority of his con stituents ; but though they differed from him, yet in this independent county honesty always had its due weight, and though they differed from him, they gave him credit for acting conscientiously, and therefore they continued their support.—(Cheers.) On the present occasion lie had been charged with having coalesced with Mr. Hume. Now the word coalition was an unpopu lar word, because its ordinary meaning was that two or more individuals had united for base and selfish purposes, and not for the public good. But upon this occas:oa no such thing existed. Two Anti-Reformers had been brought forward, upon which the Reformers naturally met the very next day at the Salopian Coffee-house, and determined to support their two old representatives.—(Cheers.) Nothing was more natural than that they should so act. He should consider himself dis g raced indeed, vilely and contemptibly disgraced, if he could be induced in any shape whatever to speak disr sptclully of Mr . . Hume, whom in his conscience he believed to have rendered more service to his coun try, than any other man in ;,he House of Commons.— (Loud and continued cheering.) He had received a no tice that morning that one hundred gentlemen intended to plump for him. Now he was confident that not a singl e real Reformer could possibly think of giving him a plumper. —(Loud cheers.) To the present Reform Government he was much devoted, because he thought they had done and would do more than any other Government he had ever witnessed.—(Cheers.) For forty years of his life he had stood up for the popular cause, in opposition to the King's u Ministers ; but b e h o ld, a t thi s moment , t h e popular cause and the Queen's Government was one an d t h e same thing. —(Cheers.) He, theref or e, h a d no f ee li ng whatever O4f.' doubt as to their success.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. Hume then came forward, and was most enthusias tically received. He had always be en th e f r i end of civil and religious liberty, he had always promoted Reform in every useful and practicable stage, he had endeavoured to render every establishment in the country more useful and effective ; in a word, he had advocated every measure which tended to the welfare of the people.—(Cheers.) He defied any man to show that upon any question he had ever taken a particular course for personal or private interest.---(Loud cheers.) He had always been the friend of the millions in opposition to the domination of the few.—(Cheers.) He had always endeavoured to put down monopolies, and more especially the monopoly of the few who robbed the people, and kept them in vile subjection by the fruits of their rob bery.—(Loud cheers.) This course of public conduct it was which induced the electors of this great county to in vite him to offer himself as a candidate, and this it was that ensured his election.—(Cheers.) He had done his duty as their representative—he felt that he might fearlessly turn round to the electors and say, " I have done my duty —do you do yours."—( Loud cheers.) On his public acts and conduct he rested for support on the present occasion. He had no party to support him on one side or the other ; he could only appeal to the friends and supporters of those measures which lie had advocated fearlessly and continually to the sacrifice of many of those indulgences which his sta tion in life would have afforded him.—(Continued cheers.) He would conclude by calling upon them, into the name of Reform and of the Queen, to do their duty.—(Cheers.) H. WAnatrivros, Esq., M.P., the Chairman of the Com mittee for conducting the election of Messrs. Byng and Hume, informed the meeting that the Liberal candidates had already received promises sufficient to ensure success if those promises were kept. He would therefore earnestly impress on the minds of all td hasten to give theirvotes the first thing on Thursday morning, and to urge on their less active neighbours. Sir THOMAS DICE LAUDER seconded the nomination. Mr. HUNTER (of Hurston-wood) came forward to nomi nate Lord Ramsay as a fit person to represent the county in Parliament. He (Mr. Hunter) was sorry to stand op posed to Mr. Fergusson as a friend and neighbour ; and, except in a political point of view, nothing could have in duced him to offer any oppositions to his return. But Mr. Ferguson being one of the party who had brought the country into a state of confusion, he considered it his duty t o give his support to Lord Ramsay, who was anxious and willing to assist in restoring the country to a healthy state. --(Hissing and cheering.) Mr. HowDEx (of Lawhead) seconded the nomination ; after which Mr. FERGUSON, who was received with enthusiastic cheering, said—My friend Mr. Hunter said the country was in a state of confusion, and that by supporting the Tory in terest was the only means of restoring tranquillity. I would be glad to know by what means the Tories would give peace and harmony to the country? I suppose he means that he would give tranquillity to the country by depriving the people of the blessings of the Reform Act.—( Loud cheers.) We are accused of putting the country in a state of con fusion. I will tell you what has produced confusion—the stoppage which we have had from the House of Lords.— (Cheering.) We are called subvertcrs. Every man that listens to me must feel that justice is due to Ireland. Why should we refuse to bestow on Ireland civil rights which we enjoy ourselves? Will you refuse justice to Ireland and prefer bloodshed and civil war ?—(Cheering.) To sa y, in a great religious country like this, that the Church was in danger is preposterous. The Church is in no dan ger, unless the danger arises from the political frenzy of the ministers of the Church themselves.—(Cheering.) Lord RAMSAY presented himself amidst hissing and yel ling, and could not be heard for some time. He said, I will venture to state the grounds on which I oppose Mr. Ferguson. I oppose him because his opinions are not in accordance with those of the majority of the county— (Loud hissing)—because he is an undeviating and unhe sitating supporter of the present Ministry.--(hear, hear, and immense cheering.) I oppose him because he is the supporter of a Ministry which commenced in faction and continued in imbecility. I oppose him because he is the supporter of a faction which turned out the former Govern inz,nt by their adherence to what is called the appropriation !dense, which has now been allowed to die of apoplexy in its chair, unnoticed and unhonoured.—(Hissing.) I oppose him because he is the supporter ore Ministry who have cre ated more p a t ronages an d appropr i ate d more j o b s than any Ministry that has existed for years before them—(Cheers and hisses)—because he is the supporter of a party whose only object has been self-aggrandisement—( Hisses) —be cause in looking to our foreign relations we find ourselves embroilel in a quarrel, wasting our money, and throwing away British lives needlessly, when we ourselves are in pro found peace. I ask if the constituency of this county will elect a man who has publicly given forth that O'Connell has done great good to his country.—(" Yes, yes." Three cheers for O'Connell.) he SHERIFF called for a show of hands, which was im mensely in favour of Mr. Ferguson ; upon which Lord Ramsay demanded a poll. A vote of thanks was then voted to the Chairman, and the meeting separated. MEETING OF THE MIDDLESEX ELECTORS RESIDENT IN SOUTHWARK. Yesterday evening a large and influential meeting :of the electors was held at the Elephant and Castle, Benjamin Hawes, jun., Esq., M.P., in the chair. The CHAIRMAN opened the proceedings of the meeting by expressing his regret that the great room of the hotel, large as it was, was not sufficiently so to accommodate the immense number of the friends of Reform assembled on that occasion to receive their long-tried friends, Messrs. Byng and Hume, and to hear their sentiments in their re gard. Still, as they were aware that every possible accom modaCon was afforded them, they would, he trusted, be pa tient, and submit to temporary inconvenience.—(Cheers.) The Hon. Gentleman then pronounced a brief, but im pressive eulogium on the characters and services of Messrs. Byng. and Hume ; and asked what had Messrs. Pownall and Wood and their party done for the people ? Nothing but to oppress and render them poorer and more unhappy. —(Cheers.) Mr. HUMS rose amidst the most enthusiastic cheering. When the applause had subsided he proceeded to a ddress the meeting. He was now the same, and should continue to be aswhen he first sat in Parliament, when it was un fashionable to advocate the people's cause in the truth and purity of its sincere meaning—(Cheers)—when more than two-thirds of the House of Commons were Tories, and less than one-third were Whigs, he was one of the very few who stood by the rights of the people, and with the view of bettering their condition, laid before them the arduous task of reforming the House of their Representatives. — ( Cheers.) In those times he stood by the people—he s hould not desert them now.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. Hawes had verily said that he had been called an economist, and that superficial politicians harped at his sticking at pounds, shil lings, and pence. Why the politics of the Tories, were potn"ls , shillings, and pence. And it was net in the case of profligate pensions and sinecures the money alone taken out of the peo ple's purse was to be considered, but the demoralization of the public mind. It was not the one who received the ill gotten income, but the dozens who were in expectation. And thus it was that every link in the chain of slavery was rivetted more strong, aed the people were kept poor and helpless by means of their own money.—(Hear, hear.) Mr, Hume then went through the various departments of IRELAND. DUBLIN, AUGUST 1. CITY ELECTION.—TIIE NOMINATION. Yesterday being the day appointed for the nomination of candidates for the representation of this city, the dif ferent avenues leading to the hustings were thronged at an early hour by the friends of the candidates. The reception of Mr. O'Connell was enthusiastic. The Liberals rose to a man ; and the waving of hats was accompanied by loud and hearty cheers, which were again and again repeated— !he few friends and representatives of the Carporation look ing on in solemn and we must say decent silence. The Learned Gentleman took occasion at an early stage of the Proceedin gs t o entreat the co u n tl ess th ousan d s of his friends then assembled to listen in silence, and to give all parties a fair hearing. Mr. Hamilton was proposed by Mr. Sheriff VEEVERS, and seconded by Mr. G. Ogle Moore. Sir G. Rica proposed Mr. West, whose nomination was seconded by Sir J. R. JAMES. Mr. HENRY GRATTAN then came forward, and delivered a senale and eloquent address, in the course of which the Conservatives, but little heeding the compact entered into between the rival parties to give every speaker an opportu nity of declaring his sentiments, frequently interrupted Mr. Grattan, and caused great confusion by the exhibition of Orange pocket-handkerchiefs, the loudest vociferation and continued rounds of the Kentish fire. One individual amongst the number of these loyal lovers of order appeared armed with a dagger, and shortly before Mr. Grattan con cluded, a dreadful riot occurred in the gallery, occupied by the friends of West and Hamilton, in consequence of a gentleman having cheered Mr. Grattan. He was savagely assaulted, but succeeded in keeping his antagonists at bay for a considerable period, although attacked with the greatest ferocity. He was fiaally rescued from his perilous situation by the interposition of ?Ir. O'Connell and the Sheriff. After this somewhat tragical demonstration, the Conser vatives thought they would try their hands at comedy, and accordingly when Mr. Grattan referred to Jim Crow, the following elegant specimen of Tory wit was directed to Mr. O'Connell by Judkin Butler, and fo rwar d e d i n the shape of a letter. Butler handed it to Edward Maguire, the elec tion agent for the Conservatives, who looked f rom t h e direc tion to the face of the writer with a puzzled countenance, more in anger than in mirth, as if he half suspected Judkin was going over to the strong side. After a minute's hesita tion he handed it to Mr. West! (to make all safe), who, after glancing at the superscription, forwarded it to Mr. O'Connell, who laughed heartily at the weak invention of the enemy : DAN CROW—A PARODY. Poor DAN was out of spirits, And he went to Mr. Roe, But he would not stand a naggin, So he jump'd Dan Crow. Then he WHEILL'D about, and danced about ; Now Hutton's all the go, For he always was a VPHEELER, And he'll jump Dan Crow. Poor Dan was " shuck fur shelter," For his cash was rather low, As he could not get a RAPHAEL That would jump Dan Crow. But he WHEEL'D about and ROWL'D about, Now Hutton's all the go, For he always was a WHEELER, And we'll jump Dan Crow. Then he mustered all his fellows, Though his stocks were rather low, And sent his TRUCKLE WHEELBARROW For to fetch Dan Crow. For with a Deist and Socinian Now WHEELING'S all the go, And both Infidel and Papist Will jump Dan Crow. Mr. GRATTAN concluded by proposing Richard Hutton, Esq., as a fit and proper person to represent the city of Dublin. Mr. PUAELL seconded the nomination. Mr. ROE then came forward and proposed Mr. O'Con nell as one of the city representatives. He did so upon various grounds, but chiefly as a commercial man, deeply interested in the commercial prosperity of his native city. No man had rendered such unwearied, such zealous, and useful services to the cause of the trade of Dublin ; and he therefore considered him the fittest representative the city could have. Therefore, as a merchant, knowing, and in some measure, representing the feelings and opinions of the mercantile body, he boldly and earnestly recommended Mr. O'Connell to their suffrages.—(Loud and long-continued cheering.) He did so on other grounds. As a friend of religious liberty, and the rights of all classes equally of his fellow-subjects, he came forward to give his support to Mr. O'Connell and his friend Mr. Hutton. Mr. SLEVIN seconded the nomination of Mr. O'Connell. After Mr. Hamilton, Mr. West, and the popular candi date, Mr. Hutton, had each in his turn addressed the electors, Mr. O'CONNELL spoke to the following effect : When the cheering concluded, he said—Many and many a day has elapsed since I felt the same pleasure I have expe rienced this day.—(Loud cheers.) I feel delighted at what I have witnessed on many accounts.—(Hear.) I love much to see such crowded assemblies of my fellow-countrymen, and it is a pride to me that they have conducted themselves in such a mann 'r as they have to-day.--(Cheers.) I rejoice, too, exceedingly, Mr. Sheriff, in the arrangements which you have made for our proceedings, from which it Would be per fectly impossible to guess your political feeling.—(Hear.) You have given to both parties a clear stage and no favour. —(Hear.) In the name of this multitudinous assembly, I respectfully return you my best thanks.—(Hear and cheers.) I next beg leave to thank every one that has spoken before me, for the mode in which they have given expression to their feelings. Not one harsh or disagreeable word has been spoken, though there has been no saisiking from a free ex pression of feelings—those who would shrink from it would be unworthy of thanks.—(Cheers.) There has been on all sides a perfect forbearance from saying anything insulting or offensive to the feelings of others.—(Hear.) I next re-' joice (and it is the principal cause of my joy), that the grounds on which any seek popular favour, and that on which my honourable friend and myself look for it, are so plain, so wide, and so distinct, that it is impossible to be de ceived as to our respective claims. Mr. Hamilton has stated their case as opposed to ours. He imputes to us the sin of being friends of civil and religious liberty. Thank God I am, and have ever been an humble champion for that mighty cause.—( Hear, hear, and loud cheers.) I will do him the credit to admit he did not say that he was its enemy ; but he has conjured up a phantom from his own brain which he would fain have us worship instead of the great prin ciple of civil and religious liberty.—(Cheers.) 1 have but one regret, and I owe that too to the candour of our op ponents. It is, that they are trying to make this a religious question. A Protestant question they would call it, but it is only half a Protestant question.—(Laughter.) A great many of that faith are with us, unless they cut them off for their political opinions from any participation in the faith which they profess. My hon. friend is a Protestak lam glad we have with us a segment of the Pi/otestant party, and it is not a small one.—(Cheers.) I was this day proposed by a Protestant, and as good a one as ever held the creed, and lam the fellow-candidate of another.—(Loud cheers.) I deplore that religious feuds should still exist, when we should only remember we are Irishmen. Those upon the opposite side spoke more as the representatives of a party than part of a nation. They talked about disputes and battles be tween sections of the people ; but did they say one word about putting Irishmen upon equal terms with their fellow subjects in Britain ?—(Cheers, and cries of " Hear, hear.") They forget the land of their nativity. Even their mark of applause has borrowed a foreign name. Why (continued Mr. O'Connell, looking up to the gallery in which the Tories were seated), why have not you an Irishman ? I wish to God I could make good Irishmen of them. I wish I was able to have them with me. I have long tried to have them so ; and if the truth were known now, I am sure many of them ate sorry.—(Cries of " Hear, hear.") Well, we must do the best we can without them. I wish they were for old Ireland. Three cheers for old Ireland.—( This was responded to by the most enthusiastic cheers.) Well, they won't come with us ; they would rather stay in a miserable co rut:. by themselves. I will turn now to what has been said by Mr. West, and, indeed, I am sorry lie was not better heard. I did my best to have a hearing for him, but it did not succeed. Mr. West introduced different ...op'ies, and amongst the rest he quoted speeches of mine. which I made at different times about the Racorde.,-, where I spoke in very different terms of him. As tb Learned. Gentle man is not present I will not now give the reasons which made me change my opinion. 111. y opinions about John David Latouch were quoted. I. can only say that, with a nervous and prejudiced mind which did. hint no credit, be turned round on me because I defeated Ills friend the Knight of Kerry, in the county of Kerry. He turned round on me wantonly, and if I gave him a. *castigation he deserved it.—(Laughter.) Well, I shall say nothing of John David Latouch, he may think better ant I forget what is past. But Mr. West did not say anythin g to you about Robert Latouch. Three cheers for R. La.'coeich. (This call was most heartily responded to.) Mr. Wftst, too, introduced the subject of Lord Durham's letter. I believe you did not hear what he said about it ; but he s oppressed the most par ticular part of it. Ho (Lord Durfia .m) said that the people ought to have a greater extension a , f civil tights, and that he wished to uphold the institutions by reform. That be said was his political creed. That its my political creed too. —(Cheers.) There havo been ch arges made against Mr. West which, in my opinion, he has/ satisfactorily explained. Anything paid about him was sat d upon facts so exagge rated that they were worse than the worst falsehoods. — (Hear, hear.) He has here given me a list where he says he has 158 Papists in his employrc ent, including 32 horses. —(Laughter.) I excuse myself tt ) him for any misrepre sentation on my part, and only asst .re him that I did so upon reports in newspapers.—[The Luz rued Gentleman was left speaking by the reporters of tl rt : Pilot—to the columns of which able and liberal journa.. we are indebted. for the materiel of the foregoing summ airy of the proceedings at the nomination in Dublin on MorAday last.] It were idle to raise a super: structure of probabilities, and reason upon a result which : must soon be ascertained and put beyond all question. T ne Mail, in its political braggart tone, says that 012 bra ce of Tories will be re elected. If the Conservatives • will come to the poll on Tuesday and Wednesday, and %I ill remain, under any cir cumstances, until they vote, the evening organ of the Orangemen declares that their success is certain"—ad ding that " the opposite party h I , ve not men in sufficient numbers to supply the booths, • The taxes are not paid Many hundreds assembled in rep! to a wicked hoax which appeared in some of the morning ; papers on Saturday, an nouncing that Mr. Hutton was r eady to pay up all arrears, on a certificate of the Roman 4 _;atholic clergy, testifying the incapacity of the voters," IWe suspect, however, that, s Ifter all, the Mail has some SM* misgivings, from snarl biz paragraph, in which it is S Ti ( 6 ------y---4) said that Lord Mulgrave "has embarked him . 11 and his '..--== .

The Pilot, in allusion to the enthusiasm that prevails amongst the Reformers, says , "we scarcely ever saw it equalled, and it certainly could not be exceeded. It was such as to give us assurance that though the contest should be desperate, the victory would certainly be ours." COLLEGE ELECTION.—Tbe "election of members to re present the University in Parliament commenced yesterday. The doors of the Examination Hall were thrown open before ten o'c'ock, soon after which Dr. Stock the Liberal can didate, accompanied by some of his friends, appeared on the hustings. The Learrnd Gentleman vas received with loud cheers. The Provost, attended by his asscsor, shortly after entered the Hall. The writ to hold th election was being read when the late representatives, Messrs. Shaw and Lefroy, attended by their proposers and seconders, made their appearance ; they were greeted with the most astound ing and i vociferous yells of " No Popery, no Popery," in termingled with repeated rounds of the Kentish fire. After some exertion, order was restored. The writ having been read, the Vice-Provost proposed Mr. Lefroy ; Counsellor W. rre Q.C., seconded the nomination. Mr. Shaw was proposed by Dr. Prior ; he was seconded by Dr. M'Cawl. Dr. Sadieir proposed Dr. Stock ; Mr. Macan seconded him. Great noise and confusion prevailed throughout the proceedings, the report of the conclusion of which has not yet reached us. THE ROYAL ARMS. (From the London Gazette of Tuesday, Aug. 1.) BY THE QUEEN—A PROCLAMATION.

ACiRICULTURAL REPORT for JULY. To the 14th day of July the weather was beautifully fine —the day temperature about 74 degrees, but that of the nights low-5U to 55 ; the concomitant of a northerly wiftd throughout the present year. Farmers and gardeners be gan to complain, and the effects of a drought were foretold want of straw, plant of spring corn going back, no fodder," and so forth. On the 14th, however, with a wind S.W., a lower temperature by day, but a higher throughout the night, a hint of rain was given ; and, on the 15th, the renowned " St. Swithin," copious showers fell, and these were repeated daily till Friday, 21st, when the wind veered again to north, and a brilliant sun shone forth throughout the day ; the thermometer, however, fell, by 10, p.m., to 50 degs., confirming a previous observation. Surely such fre quent repetitions of facts must, ere long, shake the cre dulity of those who still cleave to the superstition of forty days' rain. Such persons also should recollect thA the 156,. New Style, is not the St. Swithin of former years, and that saints can scarcely be ex pected to conform to Acts of Parliament. Oats were cut on the '2sth ; barley turning off rapidly. Of this crop it is said that, in some rich lands, ears with 18 grains of a side are to be seen, the usual average being 13 to 15. Straw was to be weak arid short, be the weather what it might. Unfortunately, however, for the credit of such lugubrious predictions, the straw of corn on good land is very high—that of wheat above the head of a man of middle stature. Last week, between Maidenhead and Henley, are crops of such strength and verdure, that no one ought in future to prognosticate inevitable evil from a long protrac tion of cold weather in the spring. Hay is safe—Clover abundant—Peas ready to be housed—Oats almost ripe— Wheat very forward—Turnips much better than last year, and, in places, most abundant. Want of feed-grass brings up the prices of butter and cheese ; and the drought also has somewhat reduced the bean crop, which promised to be abundant. The disease of the potato seems to be removed, if disease it were ; but the failures depended upon local at mospheric influences. Perhaps the bulk of potatoes may be diminished by paucity of moisture at the critical period of blossoming. Farmers should send men into the fields with books, to cut off the extreme point of the sterns—that which bears the embryo blossom ; the powers of the plant would be less taxed, and more fluid directed to the tubers. The loss of an inch or two of foliage could not prove se riously injurious, and the experiment might lead to a proof of Mr. Knight's theory of the utter uselessness of blossoms, less it be an object to obtain seed. An insect called the altise bleue has committed such ravages in some of the vineyards of both France and Spain, that in the churches of Malaga it has been prayed against.
