CITY OF LONDON ELECTION. 7elr. Geoen. in Continuation from our First Edition of re 'tterday, said-1 cannot omit a'so to refer to the measures for the esommutation of tithes, and for the registretion of meerlages. ' l'heee were, however, the production of the legit eessimi ; but I ant soery to sty that the present xessien, although it prodw ed a measure Inerielat forward by Government for the aire(ition et Church-rates, vet in its results it has been unfruitful,--( dear, hear.) Indeed there was one measure anti-educe i Which was averse than nothin,g—the reseltition to /eke seoesession of the money of the people of Lower Canoda without their consent ( Hear)—e hichwae a measure so frt. eght with injustice that I felt myself.compelled strentoresly to oppose Loud cheers.) Now, Gentlemen, although it is scarcely necessary for me, after haying been for some years your Repreeentative, t., state what are the opinions and the principles which shall form the guide for my future poli tical cor.duct, for these have been faithfully recorded by the Neves I have given as your representative during tile period I have served you ie that caeacity, yet I think I may en" more state that my aim shall be to uphold the great prin ciples of popular Government—to promote the well-being and to exalt the political importance of the people at large.— ( Loud cheers.) All these principles, I consider, go hand in hand, and tend to facilitate the progress of each other.— ( Cheers.) It is with these viewe, therefore, Gentlemen, that I wish 'e extend the elective franchise, which I deem to be the vital security for good government —( Loud cheers. 1 It is with then views I have exerted myself to prortire the B .1 lot—( Loud and continued cheers)—fur this I consider to be the only. guarantee for the freedom of election.—( Renewed cheering. ) It is w ith the same views that I advocate thc shortening of the duration of Parliaments.—( Cheer..) I am prepared to second those measures of legislative eed ad ministrative reform which have, and will, I have no doubt, be proposed by her Majesty's present Mi n i s te rs.—( C heers.) There is yet much to be done in the way of admitaistrative reform towards the relief of the people, end obtaining, a good and cheap Government.—( Cheers.) There is yet much to be done for the purpose of obtaining elicep justice—( L ou d cheers)—in the establishment of Local Courts.—( Cries of " Hear, hear," and cheers)-__ e nd there is yet much to done in order to extend the blessings of education.—( Cheers. ) Gentlemen, for these .7 - . a other similar purposes, my vote and support shall neva_ r be wanted, and I cordially sympathise with the• present Ministry for their liberal conduct and un ceasing exertions to obtain equal rights and justice to the people of Ireland—(Cheers)—to which we owe so henry a ei.ebt of compensation for past misgovernment.—( Cheers. ) Gentlemen, it has been my study for the past, and it will be for the future, to aid with all my power the promotion of the much of Reform in all its departments consistently with large and popular principles. I have always advocated those prin ciples on all occasions as far as circumstances would admit, cad that I hold to be the duty of a representative of a consti tuency of Reformers. We have already been reminded by our Chairman that the present dissolution takes place under pecu liar circumstances. We are on the threshold of a new reign, under a youthful Sovereign—a reign which, I rejoice to say, promises to be mort auspicious, and _1 trust that promise will be realized. It is not my disposition or duty, as one of the re presentatives of the people, to indulge in flattery, but I may be permitted to hope much from the education—an education of unusual care and vigilance—which has been bestowed upon our youthful Princess, under the anxious superintendence of a discreet and estimable mother.—( Great cheering.) I may be permitted to hope that such an education will have rendered the youthful mind of our Sovereign favourable to the liberties of the people, and that the course which she will pursue will entitle her to the popular sympathiesl—( Loud cheers.) We have seen that many important alterations have already taken place is the appointments about the Court— ( Hear, hear, hear)—and I trust and confidently reckon that the march of a liberal Ministry will no longer be impeded by those who are high in rank, or by any whispers that may take place in the Court circle.—(Great cheering.) If such should be the case, it will add much to the power of the indi vidual who is at the head of her Majesty's councils, and I trust will give him an increased and firmer footing than he has hi therto acquired in the Court. I only trust thud he will go on acting as he has hitherto done in the cause of the people. If he does not his responsibility will be great indeed ; for if he should be persuaded to dissever himself from the people, the high ground upon which he now stands will le entirely taken from lom.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen; we have a fifth candidate proposed to us in opposition to the four who here hitherto represented the City in Par liament. Of the personal merits of that gentleman, it• i 3 my intention to speak in the most respectful terms.— ( Cheers- ) I have the pleasure of being intimately acquainted with hint. and I know him to be a man of high honour 'end reputation.—( Loud cheers.) But while I coneeue these to him—while 1 state that I have for Lim the, greatest personal esteem--I may be permitted to ask why he has come forward against the four present Repre sentatives of the City of London ?—( Great sheering.) If it were left for me to answer that question from his own address, I confess that I should bare great difficulty in doing so.—( Cheers.) 17,-. Palmer professes to come forward as a commercial representative, apart from party. (Great laughter.) Why, Gentlemen, 'I will only ask you, are not your present representatives commercial men ?—( Great cheering.) Do they not stand as high in the commercial world as Mr. Palmer ? (Continued cheering.) Are they not as deeply interested in commerce, and hare as great a stake in the country, as Mr. Palmer ? ( Increased cheering.) Arc they not in that respect equal to Mr. Palmer, or to any of the gentlemen who have signed the req u isiti on i n hi s su pp or t.—( Ch eers .) Wh en I say that, I by no means wish to disparage Mr. Palmer's commer cial telent3; but I say neither he, nor any gentleman who has signed his requisition, are entitled to more respect, or have greater stake in the country than your present representa tives.— Cheers.) The party who have put forward Mr. Palmer do not avant him as a commercial man.—(Great cheering.) They want him as a political representative. --(Continued cheering.) It is the very same great and powerful Conservative party, for powerful they are who brought forward Mr. Ward and Mr. Lyall that now pro pose Mr. Palmer.—(Cheers.) I do not in the least contest the right of Mr. Palmer to stand forward if he pleases, but I wish the grounds on which he stands to be well understood, that the constituency may comprehend the real nature of the conflict that is about to take place. I say that Mr. Palmer stands forward upon the same line of political conduct as Sir %ben Peel does--( Great cheering)—that it is discoloured wall the same illiberal principles, although it may be varnished over with a gloss of liberality.—( Hear, and great cheering.) Ile stands forward as a check, if possible, to the present Liberal Ministry, and the electors of London would, in ray opinion, reflect eternal discredit upon themselves if they should discard one of their present Liberal representa tives in order to give place to Mr. Palmer. They would, in fact, by the adoption of such a step, give countenance to the Tory principles which Mr. Palmer professes. I cannot. Gen tlemen, for one moment believe that the electors of London will turn their backs on their former representatives.__ (Cheers, and cries of " No, no.") I cannot believe that they will join i n con d emn i ng the Reform Act to b arrencss and decrepitud e b y placing the country under the dominion of a Tory Ministry. The real contest was whether the Reform Act should hare an effect or not. Mr. Palmer was put for ward, he would again repeet, by the same Tory party that had ndea roured to thrast upon the City of London Mr. Ward 'nil Mr. LYall. One word more with respect to the du ' " of the electors of England.

The citizens of London are, in my e i dnion. bound to set an ample to the country at a vital moment lilac the present, - stating boldly and manfully what their °Pinions arc. I thank you, gentlemen, for the kindness with which you have heard inc. In conclusion, I will say that I rely with confidence upon your repeating, in the contest that is now about to take place, the verdict that you have be fore given. The Hon. Gentleman sat down amid tremendous cheering, which listed for some minutes. . WIkI.CRAWFORD, E3(1., then rose to address the meeting. The Hon. Gentleman was greatly cheered on coming forward. Ile said—it is now within a few Jot s of three years, when, in this room, I was first introduced to the constituency of London. On that occasion the city of London had but f one candidate for th e vacant representat i on , an d that individual came or ward on Tory principles. I was then invited to the distin gMehed honour which I have since enjeved. I stated in_ this room the limit s t o w hi ch me political opinions led me in Com parison with th ose t h at were known to belong to my Hon. Colleagues, then filling the stati ons o f y o ur representatives. I was received wi t h candour and fairness, and with a degree of satisfaction to myself that has made me ever feel proud of the honour that was conferred upon me. I then professed myself to be honestly awl sincerely a Reformer, in the fullest sense of the acrd.—( Hear, hear.) How far I have maintained that character, you have now the experience of three years to go by.—(Bravo, brave.) I held forth an expectation that I might be useful to my fellow-citizens, in the situation of a commercial representative, and I hope in that respect I hare not disappointed them.—( Cheers.) My lion. Colleague has adverted to the gentleman, the personal friend, I may say, who will be opposed to us on the day of election. One of the first and earliest measures to which nay attention was called, was in opposition to the opi nions entertained by that gentleman. I allude to the important question that has settled . the Tea duties. Shortly after the period when the trade with China was a novelty to the country at large, there came forth Orders in Council cal culated to trammel. perhaps to paralyse, that trade, by the powers given to certain officials in China at that time, and I believe I was happily chiefly in=trumental in obtaining the re vocation of those Orders, and procuring the freedom which that trade has since enjoyed. I have directed tey attention much to the state of the Court of Bankruptcy, and I am per suaded that if I have riot prevented much evil, I have done a great deal of good ; and I look forward anxiously for the time as hen that crest Wig be such as it ought to be to the trading ottail:itilty of this country, and when justice will 'ee ` l scive "nth to unfortunate man and their creditors.— (Cheers.) I will state one fact in connection with the change then, which is this, that since the new estehlishment, per cent. on the diidend deelarce cr.

I Pee glad you have asked my opi nion on the ballot. My set is my opinion.--( Hear, hear: I .rover have states) to any party that I have male ep ?sly mind to vote on the ballet. I remain in thr eserne situation still._ (Murmurs.) Ido not mean to say I never will vote for the ballot—( Hear, hear)---bell I do mean to say that I continue of the opinion I expressed by my vote during the last Seation of Parliament, that it is inexpedient the change should be made now.--( Cries of " Hear, hear," and expressions of disappro bation.) I will tell you more, when an ebstraet proposit oa is made in the Eloise° of Commons, which appears to me to he more calculated to advance the popularity of an individual than to be productive of any practical result to the ceuatsy, I do not say that I should support it.—(Hear, bear, and hissing. ) I shell be doing an injustice to myself, I should not maintain the position which I ought to maintain among you, willing, as I hope you are, to allow for shades of difference in men's opinions, if I did not honestly, fearlessly, and candidly state the opinions which guide my conduct.—(Cheers.) Is there any other subject on which you should wish to hear my opinion ? —(" Triennial Parliaments:") I thank that gentleman, for it enables me to correct an expression that just dropped from me, because I have no intention of alluding personally to any individual. If the motion made by my Hon. Colleague (Mr. Grote) had been carried out, it would have been essentially carried out. It was a resolution to the effect that the votes in future should be taken by ballot, and therefore there was a substantive question. With regard to Triennial Parliaments, the motion was altogether of a different character—it was, that Septennial Parliaments should cease. It could be pro ductive of no practical working whatever at that period of time—( Hisses)—in my opinion.—( Hear, hear.) I fearlessly profess myself an advocate for the shorter duration of Par liament.—(Cheers.) I am willing to take that subject into consideration as a whole, and not to deal with it in parts—( Hear, hear) ;—and if an opportunity should ever be afforded me, I am convinced I shall not disappoint the constituency in the expectation I le I them to entertain of me. It is impossible you should expect from any man —you can never expect it from me—that I should be the advocate of any of the extreme views in politics that now influence the minds of men. My opinions are the opinions essentially of a man convinced that the institutions of our country in Church and State require great reform, and to that reform I will cor dially give my sanction on any proper occasion, if I have tl e honour of a seat in Parliament.—(Cheers.) PATTISON, Ese., .11. P., then came forward, and was received with loud applause. He said there is one advantage in being last brought to your notice, that you cannot wish to hear a long speech after hearing so many.—( Hear, hear, and laughter.) You have heard an incomparable speech from my friend and colleague, Mr. Grote, and I honestly tell you I have not heard one word from him in which I disagree.— (Cheers). Many of you may recollect that I was in. vited to he one of your representatives at a time when the city was disturbed by an opposition to your then three Reform Members, and you may also remember that I cordially as sented to be put in nomination. The result is known to you, or I should not have been appealing to you to-day. I under took, then, gentlemen, to oppose the Government of that day. It was then, as you know, a Tory Government. I did oppose that Government to the best of my power, and, thanks to the Liberals of the House of Commons, they soon dispossessed Sir R. Peel—his own Parliament dispossessed him of that power which ke had undertaken. Since that time, I have supporteU, as far as lies in my power, the Government of my Lord Melbourne. But I shall not consider myself bound to support him upon any subject on which I do not cordially join, and whenever I hare differed with that Government it has been with regret, because I am convinced the country could not, under existing circumstances, have had a better Government.—( Cheers. ) With these few words as a decla ration, I will only say that I shall continue my support to the Government, as long at that Government goes on and brings be fore the public such measures as I think 'the people of England and Ireland expect from them.—(Cheers.) If any thing should be brought forward by Lord Melbourne with which Ido not agree, he will have my unqualified dissent. I need not allude to my votes ; they are well known to you from the admirable system that is now adopted by the House of Commons.--( Cheers.) I undertook in my address on a former occasion to vote for liberal measures, and I believe none of you will say that I have shrunk from that undertaking.—( Cheers.) In my address to the constituency of the city of London 1 said I would support the ballot. I have voted for the bal lot. I have not done it to curry favour with my consti tuents; but I have done it from a conviction that the ballot is absolutely necessary.—( Loud cheering.) I have voted for the repeal of the Septennial Act. I think the repeal of that Act is very desirable, and I should prefer Triennial Parliaments to Septennial.—(Cheers ) The question as to the household suffrage has never been brought to a vote in the House of Commons ; but Ido not hesitate in telling you that if it had been brought to a vote, I should have voted for it. I have thus briefly enumerated what I have done, and I trust I have not deceived you by any of my professions. I trust and believe, if I know myself, that if you return me again to Par liament, you will find me continuing in the same path, sup porting as I trust I eo, the real feelings and views of this great country.—( Cheers.) One word more—l believe, Gentlemen, by this day week, or to-morrow week, we shall all be turnel adrift.—( Laughter.) Therefore, let me beg of you, although perhaps you will think it impertinent in me to say so, that when you go home, if you are determined to return Reform Members, make up your minds to he on the alert, and to be ,active. —(Cheers. ) For myself, I have no earthly views in icing your suffrages beyond that of serving you as a Reform Member. I beg leave to thank you much, and I cannot but ex press how grateful feel that vou shculd receive my name with such flattering apFrobation in conjunction with the names of my colleagues. It must he grateful to all of us, and I assure you to none more so than myself. —(Tremendous cheering.) T. HANKEY, jun., Esq., came forward to propose the next Resolution. He said—Gentlemen, the Resolution which has been put into my hands might appear from the order of the preceedings to day of little moment, but I think when I have read it to you that you will consider it of not less consequence than any that have preceded it. —( Hear, hear.) You have all agreed to invite your four present Members to sit again as your Representatives in Parliament.—(Ch e ers.) It becomes, therefore, of great importance to see what steps should be taken to secure their return.--( Hear, hear.) The object of tl,e present Resolution is to effect that in the most practicable manner.—(llear, hear.) You must remember that on the present occasion you have to contend with no ordinary power. The pesty opposing us is able to number amongst it a great many of the most wealthy awl influential merchants of the most wealthy city of the world.—( Hear.) They have already, I am told, got up a large subscription, amounting to 'rewards of 2,300/. by subscriptions of 251 each. lam sure, ;gentlemen, it ought to be a subject of congratulation to all , P that at a time when we hear of so much commercial embar rassment and difficulty, one hundred gentlemen would be found to throw away 23/. each (for it will be thrown away) in endeavouring to effect the object which they have in view.—(hear, and cheers.) On these grounds it becomes still mor . e important for you to work with unanimity, and try to take such measures as will secure the return of those Hon. Gentlemen whose public conduct you so much approve of.— (Cheering.) After the many eloquent addresses you have heard, I should think it highly improper to detain you further; hut, with your permission, I shall real the resolution, which is likely to ensure the object we all have in view. Mr. Hanks.) , here read the resolution es follows : Thato;;Ku;;esQllepresentatives having consented to be come candidates for our sutTrages, a Committee be appointed forth with to conduct the Election, and that such Committee coniist of with power to add to their number. The CMAIRMAN—The-renlution which you have just heard read will be seconded by the lion. Thomas Den:nan. I am sure you arc all grateful for the services you have received at the hands of his father, the Lord Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench, while he acted es Common Sergeant to the city of London, and the friend of a much injured woman.—(Tremen dous cheering for some minutes.) The lion. Trios. DENMAN then came forward, and his ap pearance was the signal for renewed cheering. Ile said, Gen , tlemee—l rise to second the resolution of my Hon. Friend Mr. Mulkey, and I do assure you, when your respected Chair man talks of a deft of gratitude on the part of this city towards my honoured father, that debt is reciprocal on his part and mine, and that I shall feel it to the last day of my existence. The time is happily gone by when a man would be proscribed for declaring his own genuine sentiments, and for doing his duty as an advocate.—(Hear.) But at that time the City of London nobly came forward, and placed my h onoured father in that station to which his standing, his rank, and his acquire. ments entitled him.—(Great applause.) Gentlemen, I sin cerely hope that the to lose one Member objects of thismeetiinng,ber for will be accom plished.

I trust, Gentlemen, that y our worthy r_ I repre sentatives sentatives will b r i ng f orwar d measures for the good of re land—(Cheers)—that we shall hear of the education of the people in the only way in which they can be educated. It is impossible to conduct that education properly unless it he based upon religion ; but such doctrines should not be instilled into the minds of children,_ as would induce their clergymen to oppose the system. By showing them extracts from the Bible it would induce in them a spirit of curiosity grid a fondness for that most beautiful arid simple style, which : would tend to nuke them read more of the Bible, than ;al - the Protestant oligarchists otherwise could compel them to do. No education could be expected to succeed in Ireland, which began by attemptieg t assail vsl nbuT tilt erred of their fathers:—(llcar, )iseir;, Cent.'islms4it ',...e iis.4 l . ive-8 ifs*; People of lirel•ii‘tiV:i - V6t re, liceieg 2 iticerc in teem rel i gious opi s nicA. !

He has been at all times, as you well !..now, ready to advocate end support every measure which may tend to the welfare of his fellow-citizens.—( Cheers.) On the present occasion I must confine myself to a few wor•!s, because every one responds to the truth of it. The occasion of the ptesent meeting is so important, that I cannot help addressing to you a few words on the duties impesed 'soon you, and the situation in which you now etend.--( (fear, hear.) The imme diate su bj ec t of pen. meeting has been a good deal exhausted, but I have b ‘er. told that the proposition has been put forward —if vou give three of your votes to any of your three pre- sent 'Members, that it would be merely an act of personal favour to give your fourth vote to Mr. Palmer. You will be told that Mr. Palmer i.e an able and a mast respectable m.m, and as the private friend of Mr. Palmer, I can state that you will be told nothing but the truth.—( hear, hear.) But ad mitting that he is an able and respectable man, I must also admit that he is an honest and uncompromising Tory on every political question—upon every question on which party feeling, and opinion can be exerted. Mr. Palmer holds Tory opinions, and will give Tory votes.—( Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") There are some among you who will be told that in voting for your present Representatives you are voting for the destruction of the Church. Now I would request of you, if your votes are solicited on such grounds, to tell the canvasser that that party which brings forward Mr. Palmer, and upon Mr. Pal mer depends peculiarly for support—that party • to which he belongs are in all other countries the avowed supporters and defenders of the most intolerant form of Romenism. Look to their conduct in Spain and Portugal.—( Loud cheers.) You will find that their professed regard for Protestantism is nothing but an excuse for advocating every form of bad go vernment all over the world.—( Hear, hear.) They do not tell us that ; but they profess themselves to be the opponents of Popery, while that with them is merely a pretence.— ( Hear, hear.) Ido not know any other grounds upon which they can ask a vote from you for Mr. Palmer. If they tell you that property is involved, I hope that a sufficient answer has been given by the gentlemen who have preceded me—gentlemen who know - so much of the world— who have large commercial interests at stake in the City of London ; and I feel confident that the circumstance of such gentlemen appearing before you, and pressing upon you the importance of returning to Parlia neat your four present Re presentatives, will be a sufficient guarantee on that point— ( Tremendous cheering.) I feel confident that you will re spond most cordially to the resolution that I have now the honour to propose to you.---( Hear, hear, and cheers.) J. `Verses, Esq., had been called on to second the vote of thanks to the Hon. Gentleman who now presided, mid he did so most cordially. It was impossible for any man who had lived for even a short period in the City of Linden, not to be aware of the valued services of that Gentleman in the cause of Reform, and of the integrity of his character in comnsercial and private relations. lie was satisfied that they would all cuncur in the rote of thanks that had been proposed to him. His (Mr. Wells') opinions on political' matters generally were well known, and he was satisfied that the Reform Bill would never work well without the Vote be Ballot. The resolution of a vote of thanks to the Chairman was then put and carried with acclamations. Mr. NORMAN then proposed three cheers for the Reform Candidates, which was cordially responded to : es was also a proposition of three cheers for her Majesty. The CHAIRMAN returned thanks for the kindness and cor diality with which they had received the mention of his name.—( Cheers.) He felt particularly flattered at that vote of thanks having been proposed to them by a gen tleman of such high standing and station in ' the City of London, as George Ward Norman, Esq., one of the Bank Directors. Although that gentleman could not be persuaded to come out much into public life, yet he worked sedulously and zealously in promoting the cause of Reform among the li beral constituency. The resolution had been seconded by a gen tleman of consequence among them, Mr. Wells, andhe felt the more flattered, because he entertained opinions tolerably ex treme, and which might be supposed to differ from those pro fessed by persons moving in high stations. Those opinions had been termed Radical, and •be (Mr. Travers) glo ried in the name of Radical.—(Great applause.) The opinions of that body had been much misunderstood by those who had not inquired into them. Their object was to preserve whatever was best and most useful in the institu tions of the country, and upon all occasions they were happy to sink sonic of the minor shades of opinion, and act in concert with their brother Reformers—( Cheers.) They had no objec tion -so that sort of drag-chain being put on them occasionally; in fact they were happy and flattered when all shades of Re- - formers acted with them; and lie trusted the Liberal interest in the City of London would be always held together by making mutual concessions.—( Hear.) All their four candi dates had supported the present Ministry, and he was satisfied thatthe Ministry wouldbeeome more Liberal as they proceeded. Ile would live in the hope that although one of the present Members did not go quite to the extent of the other three, that his opinions would become more extreme every day._ ( Loud cries of " hear.") lie had no doubt of the return of their present Members, seeing himself surrounded by men of the highest importance and wealth in the city of London. He hoped that all those is ho were present on that day would do their best to ensure the return of the Liberal candidates, by exerting themselves amongst the constituency. Whatever post was assigned to him to fill, he should fill it to the best of his ability, and he trusted that all of them would co-operate with him for that purpose —( Loud cheers.) There has been just now a document put into my hand. It recommends that your canvass should not be too general. I recommend also that your cativass should not be general, let it be particular and local. Let every man canvass in his own ward, where it is to be supposed he can best exert Its influ ence And if every gentleman will thus canvass in the ward to which he belongs—and I presume there is one person from each of the wards in the City present here now_ we shall soon get up oar canvass in proper style, and de pend upon it that, as far as industry is wanted, I, fur one, will be amongst those who will permit nothing to be lost for•want of exertion.—( Hear, anti loud cheers.) Reference has been made on the other side to the sinews of war. They have stated that no money shall be wanting on their part in order to carry their designs into effect, and that already a larg e amount of subscriptions has been paid in to sustain them. Be this as it may, however, they will filet no want of money here.—( Loud and continued c heering.) Aad, gentlemen, I am sure you will all with me do the best you can to bring in, in a proper manner, the candidates we support.—( Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, we shall be glad to see you all at six o'clock at the Guildhall Coffee-house.— ( Loud cheering.) The committee will be then sasembled there, and I am sure they will be glad to receive advice and assistance from any gentleman who may be enabled to at tend there. —( Cheers. ) Gentlemen, I need not tell you that I would not beck N.r. Grote, or any other candidate, if I did not consider that it wee for your interest to do so ; but I declare honestly and openly, that 1110 not know four men who aro snore sincerely or more thoroughly devoted to your service and your intermits than your present representatives.—( Loud and continued cheering.) Mr. CRAWFGED then said, that be was sorry any person could say that he preferred him to Horsley Palmer, at-all events. —( Cheers). The meeting then separated, after three loud and long continued cheers had been given. It was throughout thronged to excess, and was attended by a large num ber of the most respectable and influential commer cial men in the City ; amongst whom we observed .1.

THE SUN, LONDON, TrINDAY, JULY 11, 184 CONSERVATIVE MEETING. CITY OF LONDON. (In continuation from our First Edition of yesterday.) Mr. RUSSELL had much pleasure, and considered it a great honour in being called upon to second the resolution. Th e y had met that day for the purpose of attempting to relieve the city of London frc;in the degraded state of a rotten borough. —(Cheers, and " Hear, hear.") A small party of their fellow citizens had assumed to themselves the ownership of the representation; he trusted that his fellow-citizens would not now submit to the domination—he, for one, would never give in to it.—( Cheers. ) The resolution was put, and carried unanimously. Mr. JOHN BARING rose to move the second resolution, which declared the necessity fur the City of London being repre sented by a gentleman of great mercantile experience, sound political information, and high commercial standing, which would not only benefit the City of London,ibut the whole em pire. We regret, from the low tone of/oice in which the Honourable Gentleman spoke, that we 'are unable to /data that he did more than pass a high eulogium upon the character, and the great exertions of Mr. Palmer, a Bank e a n x e u r unpre c edented e p n r a e b s l s e u d r e t o o n s p e t k e o t y very highest Market, Director during th e th ree mont h s i n w hi c h t h ere h a d b een suc h in e from his intimate connection with the Ameri ca n t ra d e , w hich of whose terms, had suffered most from the depression. In his opinion it would be impossible for the citizens of London to find a more able man in any party, or a man of a more ccuriCo._:A obliging disposition ; and he had great pleasure in affording him all the support in his power. Mr. GOCLD seconded the motion. The City of London nrd '_lle as merchants were 4sifOuS of lieing l)3 , a iiier*fian'. rot ihcn touch 11pOnpelitieal prlncille, ;Or lie Woilid no *ROI fa i rthe'r .ad: All ltantell was t:11t as Conservative merchants ; lie deserved their confidence Oil account of the conduct of the Bank, influenced as it had been by Mr. Palmer. It had saved the country from a crisis which fro I“.vp be.n of e l i fearfpl n ature. He trusted that it ' was nearly over, ana it so tne noun r}' "le , !ply indebted to Mr. Palmer.—(Hear, hear.) As a merchant he thought it wcs most shocking that the mercantile interest should he ruined by speculative attornies and lawyers. How co.!!! they letrillate upon mercantile mstters? He would d 4 innintie fife tllti tit fittil. Th 6 mUttirints of theft eltr ft!piefittifi liy i Vl•hd had tia tticrtantile knowledge; hut he had enough, merely ettotigii, fd feriflef him one of the most violent of Radicals, who had misrepresentd the mercantile interests. The Resolution was then put and carried unanimously. \V!.I. Cori Esq., bait: high testimony to the character of Mr. Palmer, both in his capacity of Director Of the Rank, and as a Merchant, but as the Hon. Gentleman was present he could not allow himself to say as much as his feelings dic tateil. Ile and those around him were most anxious to see the great mercantile interests of the City of London repre sented by the experience of such a man as his friend Mr, Palmer. It was most essential, in order te keep the Repre sentative cool from the warmth of political part , zanship, that he should be free from any political bias.—( Hear, hear, hear.) Mr. Palmer was that man—he would never give his support to any Government, however much his feelings might go with it, which would propose to inflict any injury upon any of the great institutions of the country. He would not go into Parliament as the supporter of any Government ; he would devote his strict attention to the interests of commerce. He ( Mr. C.) never was a great politician, and so he had been enabled to see the bad influences which party spirit engendered. Mr. Palmer was strong in his attachment to the Church, but at the same time he would maintain the freest toleration of opinion —he never would consent to break down one essential branch of the Legislature—he never would consent to the abolition of the House of Lords. He had great gratification in pro posing the Resolution which had been confided to him by the Committee, which pledged the meeting to give their cordial support to Mr. Palmer, he being possessed of all the qualifi cations necessary for a Representative of the city of London. C. MILLS, Esq. seconded the resolution, and called upon all present to devote their time to the election cf Mr. Palmer, and the triumph cf Conservative principles, Mr. Palmer de served well of the city of London and of the empire, and therefore he trusted they would return him free of expense. The resolution, like the others, was carried unanimously. Mr. MASTERMAN proposed a resolution declaring the ne cessity of tho meeting entering into a subscription for the pur pose of defraying the expenses of the election of Mr. Palmer. Mr. COTESWORTII seconded the resolution, and called upon all present not to consiier their duty done ashen they had sub scribed towards the expenses of the election. A higher duty still was, that they should afford their time and influence in soliciting and obtaining votes for Mr. Palmer, who, both as a man and a merchant, was eminently qualified to represent them in Parliament.—Carried unanimously. The CUAIRMAN then said that the rest of the business being merely formal, he thought he would be doing the pleasure of the meeting by calling upon Horsley Palmer, Esq. to state the sentiments and political opinions upon which he resolved to seek the support of his fellow-citizens.—( Loud cheers.) H. PALMER, Esq., then rose amidst loud cheers. He said— Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen, 1 want words to express the feelings by which I am now oppressed.--( Here a gentleman persisted in keeping on his hat, notwithstanding a general cry of " hats off," which caused for a few minutes considerable confusion. )—Mr. Palmer proceeded. I have not one word to say that will offend either a supporter or an opponent, therefore I entreat every gentleman in the room to remain.—( Cheers.) I was proceeding to say, Sir, that most deeply do I feel the want of words to express the feelings which actuate my breast when I see myself surrounded by the great mercantile body of London.—( Hear.) I have no merit of my own t a claim such a testimony, notwithstanding all the t has been said by my too partial friends. I will therefore at once advert to the resolution which you have just been kind enough to pass, in such a manner that no possible exertion on my part can ever possibly repay. That resolution, Sir, is con firmatory of the requisition which I have had the honour of re ceiving—a requisition which I believe to be more numerously signed than any that has ever been presented to any man. That requisition, Sir, was a complimentary one, and I feel bound to come forward in support of those principles which arc those alike of the requisitionists and myself ; and I trust that for the sake of those principles you will go on and render me triumphant, for my cause is identified with yours. If I have the honour of being entrusted with suffrages enough to send me to the House of Commons—should I have any trust reposed in me, I should be most happy and anxious to fulfil it, even to the utmost of nay exertions and abilities. I will now proceed, gentlemen, to state to you the grounds upon which I solicit the support of the citizens of London. It is emphatically on independent principles.— (Cheers.) I have no favour to ask of any Government, and should I have the honour of being placed in Parliament by your support, I never will ask one—on that ground I will be independent.— ( Cheers. ) Gentlemen, there is another species of independence which I feel bound to ask at your hands. My vote, should Ibe required to give one, must be as independent as I shall be of the Government. Upon any question presented to me, I shall exert myself in order to arrive at the conclusion of truth upon it, and having done so I shall hold myself at liberty to vote as that conclusion may dictate.—( Cheers. ) Of course I shall give the strictest atten tion to the wishes of the electors of London, legally assembled. I shall examine the reasons given for those wishes ; still, if I cannot come to the same conclusion, I must still claim to give an independent vote. The next point to which I shall call your attention is this :—it has been the great object of my life to represent the mercantile interests of the City of London, in conjunction with those gentlemen, who are freely chosen by the electors ; that has been my object through my whole mer cantile life ; that I am fitted for it my partial friends have made me believe.—( Hear, hear.) lam free from any vio lent political feelings—because it is only in that sense that I use the words—because, in my opinion, no person has a right to ask for the representation of any place who does not pretend to some fixed political feelings of some kind, and with a determination to use those feelings for the interest and bene fit of the country, and not for party purposes.—( Cheers.) Gentlemen, having said so much, I will now proceed to state the principles which I entertain. They arc loyalty to the Queen—( Cheers)—an anxious desire to uphold the Consti tution of the country in Church and State—( Loud cheers) — a determination never to support any measure that will go to establish any change in the House of Lords.—( Loud cheers. ) These, Gentlemen, are the leading principles which will govern my political conduct, if, through your active support, I shall have the honour of obtaining a scat in the House. My most strenuous opposition would be given to those principles which have been advocated by your present Members,at all events by the majority of them—l allude to that measure called the vote by Ballot.—( Cheers.) I should be most decidedly opposed to any extension of the suffrage, which is only ano ther means of obtaining universal suffrage and annual Parlia ments. No person has yet distinctly stated that that is the end sought for, but I feel certain that it must be the ultimate end of any extension of the suffrage, and therefore it has my decided opposition. I will stand by the Reform Bill, which I would most willingly aid in carrying out in all its integrity towards the attainment of Conservative ends. Gentlemen, lam no po litical partizan. The first object of my life has been to be enabled to give mercantile advice to the House of Commons es the representative of the City of London.—( Cheers.) With respect to the late transactions about which my Hon. Friends have said so much, I was governed by no other motives than an anxious desire to promote the commerce and the best interests of the mercantile community of the empire, and above all to prevent a great crisis which I saw approaching.—( Cheers. ) Gentlemen, London is my native city. I had the honour to be born a freeman of the City of London—and I trust I shall be enabled to transmit those rights a nd privileges to my children unsullied.—(Cheers.) Whatever, Gentlemen, may be the result of the contest in which we are now about to be engaged, I will carry to my grave those feelings of pride which have risen within me by the manner in which I have been received this day. Activity, Gentlemen, activity and union are absolutely necessary to carry out any great public benefit—let us have it upon this occasion, and our triumph will be secure.—( Cheers.) I cannot conceal from myself that it would be a high, a very high favour to he re turned to Parliament by the mercantile interests of the city of London upon such principles as I have avowed. 1 , believe, Gentlemen, that the time is fast approaching when there will be a junction of moderate men fro m alt sides— moderate men of both parties must approximate. In my opinion, it would be a great blessing to the country—a great blessing to Conservatism generally, that Conservatives, whe ther Whig or Tory, should be united to oppose the outpouring of Radicalism.—( Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, allow me most sincerely to thank you for your kindness and your support. lam obliged to you for the confidence you have shown in me. Knowing that long speeches would not secure the success of our exertions, and trusting that those exertions will be effectual, I beg leave to thank you kindly, and with so doing I take my leave for the present. The Hon. Gentle man sat down amidst loud cheering. A Committee was then appointed, with power to add to the it number; and thanks being voted to the Chairman, which being duly acknowledged, the meeting separated. The Hon. Miss Cocks, a daughter of Viscount Ea,tnor, is appointed one of the Maids of Honour to the Queen. A person named John Carsue, of Skewes, in Crowan, some time ago lived with a woman to whom he was supposed to have been married, though it now turns out to be otherwise, and the result was the birth of a child. On Thurs day night, the 29th ult., about twelve o'clock, he went to the house of the woman's father, at Broadleane, in Breage, and demanded his child, which is about seven months old ; but the woman who lives there, and to whom the application was made, refused to give it up. He, however, took the child by force, and left the house, followed by its mother, to whom, after pro ceeding some, distance, he dealt a blow which struck her sense, less to the ground. When she regained her senses, she was horror-struck - te find the innocent babe lying by her side with its throat cut-ip; a• dreadful manner, and before she c ould get back with 'it to, her father's house it was a corpse. The feelings of the metlfei-overcame her, and she was seized with delirium, from whiCh .she did not recover for some time. A Corener s Inquest was ,held on the body on Saturday, when a verdict of " Wilful MuroSv" was returned against John Carsue, who was committed.-=.

BAINES. Mr. KNIGHT appeared hi support of the bill. A tes2o, thm*ed Thomas buckle, entered into a contract ha 1807 fo' f Th purchase of an estate, of which he was im— mediately let into possession upon payment of the while. or a greater part, of Ole purchase money. In 1813 he made his will, devising all his real estates to his two sons, John and Thomas, as tenants in common. No conveyance tee buckle of the purchased estate was ever executed till §nrerelime in NM And it appeared as a fact that the vendor,, 14as'irig been merely a tenant for life, had not, irs t7tith, power Is' sell the estate and convey the fee until some' time subsequent to the date of the will. Under this state of facts the question was raised whether the equitable in terest in the estate contracted for passed under the will of 1813 ? If it. did not, the t iaintiff, who was heir-at-law of the purchaser, was entitled to it. His HuNoca said, the decree must be for the plaintiff; 1 1 but es all the expet.s.i of the snit Was ii:currcd in pursuit of an ignis Puns the decree must be without costs. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BO IV-STREET. Three persons were brought before Mr. Mt:cm-rum., charged with twisting knockers off hall doors, assaulting the police, and other disorderly conduct ; and it having been rumoured that one of the parties charged was the Marquis of Waterford, a great number of persons assembled in front of the office to catch a glimpse of his Lordship. It proved, however, that the gentleman alluded to was not the Noble Marquis himself, but his brother, Lord William 13t, csjbi who gave the name of Charles Ferguson. Two other per sons were placed in the dock beside his Lordship, one of whom gave his name Edward Ilowneridey, of No. 41, James's-street ; and the other, who was equipped in the garb of a waterman, said his name was George Elliott, and that he was a coxswain to the Noble Lord. William Dodd, a police constable, E division, No. 9, was on duty in Museum-street, between one and two o'clock on the previous morning, when he saw the two gentlemen at the bar go up to the house No. 49, and wrench the knocker from the door. Witness expostulated with them, and seeing another knocker in the hand of the prisoner Elliott, he took him by the collar, upon which the prisoner Hammcrsley, dropped tho knocker which he had just carried off. The prisoner Ferguson then came up, and said, " It's all right, old boy," and offered money which witness refused to take. The two gentlemen then ran away, but were soon appre hended, witness still retaining his hold of Elliott. They were then conveyed to the police station-house, where Fer guson refused to be searched, declaring that he would not submit to such a rascally degradation, and, having said so, he struck witness. The prisoners were then locked up. Mr. Wrn. Gibson, of No. 49, Museum•street, proved that one of the knockers produced belonged to him, and had been wrenched from off his street door. Ferguson, in his defence, said he had been up tl.e rivf r on a boating excursion, and had " taken rather too much wine." The two other prisoners also pleaded having taken a drop too much. Mr. MiNsnum. observed that there were two chervil against Ferguson, whom he should consider as the principil offender, and should fine him 51. for unlawfully possessil g himself of one of the knockers, and 51. for assaulting the police constable in the execution of his duty. He should not fine the other two. Ferguson had no objection to pay .5/. for the knocker, but as lie denied tho assault, he should appeal against that fine. Mr. MINSHULL informed him that there was no appeal in the case, but he intimated that Mr. Ferguson might go to prison, if he pleased, instead of paying the fine. Ferguson—Oh, there is no occasion for that. I shall pay the money. Mr. MiNsitum. then desired him to come round in front of the Bench, and said to him, " I dare say, Sir, you hat 0 money enough at your disposal, but I pray you not to en tertain the notion that you can therefore do as you think fit in the streets of this metropolis either by night or 101 day. You were brought before me recently for a similar offence, when I fined you .5/., and I warn you that if you* should again appear before me under circumstances like the present I shall most assuredly feel it to be my duty-- not to inflict a pecuniary fine upon you, for that is no pll. nishment to a person in your station—but I shall send ye n at once, as I am authorised to do, to hard labour for two months in the House of Correction, and you will thee s ee that neither rank nor riches can entitle you to the privilege of committing depredations upon the property of peaceable and industrious persons, or of disturbing the peace and quiet of the town with impunity." The Noble Lord was then handed over to the custody of the gaoler, and his two companions were discharged. .Eis brother, the Marquis of Waterford, after visiting him . n durance vile," released him from his ignoble captivity II paying the fines. rer Cwt, New English Bed Cloversos. 60s. l'Os OH Ditto Ditto s —s —s New Foreign Ditto sos. 6ils 65s Old Ditto Ditto New White Clover s4s. 60s. 70s.

Our Cstton Market has presented a heavy appearance throughout the week, though the aggregate sales show a fair extent of business. In the early part of the week the demand was limited, and the daily sales rather below an average; yesterday and to-day, however, we have had more demand, which, being freely met, has augmented the week's business, without, however, creating an improved feeling in the market. In prices we make no general alteration, though the tendency is rather against the holder. Brazils have been in fair request, and fully support previous quotations. Sea Islands are ne glected, and rather lower. Egyptian, though more in demand, has given way in price, and may be quoted t/d. lower.
