The columns of The Srm contain to-day proofs rather more convincing than satisfactory to the Tories that the re-action of which they boasted so loudly and pertinaciously, and which was to accomplish such mighty wonders when an opportunity offered, existed no where but in their own bewildered imaginations. A fairer opportunity than a general election affords for showing the strength of their party the could not possibly desire. And how have they sped hitherto ? How have their anticipations been realized in the elec tions which hare already taken place ? Turn we first to the metropolitan districts. It was here, they said, that the re-action was the greatest, and that its eEcts would be most perceptible in the issue of the elections. The Standard, the fellow-la►bourer of the Times in every artifice that can serve the purpose, however momentary, of the faction to which both are bound, assured its readers a day or two ago that it would " answer for the metropolis and its neighbour hood ;" that success was " not merely probable, but a3solutely—inevitably certain." Well, the maropo litan elections arc over, and how many Tory Nimbus h ive been added to the list ? Not one. The party have actually lost a Member. All of these elections, but one, have been contested ; and from all have the Tory candidates come off with defeat—from most of than with disgraceful defeat. In Finsbury the Tory did not poll half the votes of the second Liberal, being niI:MS two thousand five hundred. In Lambeth Mr. BALDWIN, the Proprietor of the Standard, and a man whose personal character stands high in that bo ,. . • r , ugh, could not get within a thousand votes of his opponents. In Marylebone the majority in favour of Reform would have been as great, had not the Refor mers, through a mistaken policy, thrown away agreat number of votes on the two supernumerary candidates and in Westminster the Liberal Candidates are, while we write (half-past two o'clock), more than a thousand a head of Sir GEORGE MURRAY, the Tory sub stitute of renegade BURDETT. It is therefore virtu ally decided. This is by far the most important of all the Metropolitan elections, with the exception of the City of London. It was Westminster which the Tories held up above all other places as their very beau ideal of re-action. Nothing, they said, was ever so astounding in the history of politics as the change. which had come over the electors of that city since the last General Election. The return of the " faded beau" was not to be accounted for on any other prin ciple than a total dereliction of Reform, and the adop tion of anti-Reform opinions. Here then we see a crack specimen of re-action, in the return, by an over whelming majority, of two out-and-out Radicals. Such, then, are the glorious results of the metro politan elections. In the provinces, though success has not been so uniformly on the side of the people, there has been, upon the whole, a considerable acces sion of strength to the Liberal ranks. If one has been lost to the cause, by aristocratic oppression and Tory gold, at Liverpool, one has been gained by the triumph of principle at Bristol. At Leicester, at Northamp ton, where the Tory whipper-in has been whipped out, at Yarmouth, Windsor, Dover, Rochester, and a variety of other towns, Tories have been sent adrift, and Reformers substituted in their stead. Bath and Hull are the only towns of any consequence where the Tories have been successful, and this has, we believe, been owing to unprecedented intimidation and bribery on the one hand, and to a false security on the other. Let us then urge the electors who have yet to vote to take warning by the errors, as well as to follow the good example, of the reformers. Their enemies are, it is true, weak in principle, but they are strong in some other respects. They have wealth and influence, and these they are using without stint or scruple to bribe_ and overawe every elector upon whom these powerful engines can be made to bear. They are in truth, fighting this battle with the desperation of men who feel that it is a death struggle. Shall the Reformers, who have right on their side—shall those who are conscious that they are engaged in the best of causes, the cause of their QUEEN and their country—display less devotion, or combat with less energy ? No, the electors of Great Britain will never allow this reproach to attach t o them. They will vie with each other, in a generous rivalry of z(al, activity, and perseverance, PILICES OF SHAKES THIS B ighton Railway Company (Stevens Brighton (Rennie's) L'mdon and Croydon Railway Compa Ditto Scrip General Steam Navigation Company National Provincial Bank of England -------- courtsE OF EXCII A msterdarn C.F. 12 6 1 .', Ditto, at sight Rotterdam.... ......... .....2 U l2 6!3 A ntwerr...

It never can be too often re peated—never too deeply pondered by every man who has a vote to give—that on the - issue of the present election depends the forward or the backward move ment of Reform. It is somewhat amusing to observe the bullying air under which the Tory organs are endeavouring to con ceal the late defeat of their party in the City. The Times swears they will petition the House of Com mons—that they Will—to allow a scrutiny of the votes, and then—what then ? Why they will seat Mr. PALMER in the place of Mr. GROTE. This is what may be called jumping to a conclusion a little too fast. A scrutiny would be a rather dangerous experiment for the rejected Tory. What will his sup porters say to the 700 votes for which hard cash was paid, and proof of which payment is to a great extent already in possession of parties who will make good use of it ? CUMBERLAND will find it a tough job to abolish the Constitution of Hanover. It was easier to make traitors of Orangemen and Tories than slaves of tl►e Hanoierians. According to advices received this morning the authorities of that kingdom have already signified that though the KING may not consider him self bound to uphold the Constitution yet they do, having sworn to maintain it with their lives and fortunes ; nor will the oath they have taken suffer them to remain passive, should the KING attempt to carry into effect his proclamation of the sth inst. The people of Ha nover undoubtedly owe no allegiance to any So vereign that presumes, without their consent, to set aside the fundamental principles, as well as to change the forms of the established Government of the country. They hold not their Constitution by a te nure depending upon the Royal will, and in swearing , to maintain it they have excepted none from the pu nishment of attempting its abrogation. They could not willingly succumb to the pleasure of ERNEST AU GUSTUS, without adding to the weakness and immora lity of slaves the guilt of perjury. But, fortunately, they are proving themselves worthy to have been the fel low-subjects of a people, who sooner than submit to the tyranny of a despot drove the dynasty of STUART for ever from the shores of Britain. Meetings to protest against the CUMBERLAND proclamation have been held in several of the most influential towns in every part of Hanover ; and several of the Deputies have publicly recommended a national appeal to the Frank fort Diet. The Paris correspondent of our Tory Con temporary, the Morning Post, thus speaks, in his letter of Monday from that capital, of the accounts re ceived of the doings in Hanover : PAIdS, JULY 24, HALF-PAiT 4.-1 undrs!and, from very good authority (though I am delicate in pleiging myself fur the truth of any information which I have not the means of proving) that accounts have just been received by express from Hanover, stating that a very violent agitation prevails there among all classes of people, and that the principal personagts had met, for the purpose of addressing- the Great P o wers of Europe. The date of these despatches is n,,t given ; but my informant assures me that helms se n them. Should the Tory Grand Master of the Orange co' spirators persist in his resolution to abolish the Consti tution, his MAJESTY may learn from a relative of his own, an illustrious elder branch of the House of Brunswick, the happiness to be anticipated from the fate that awaits him. In England he may find an asylum, but under no possible circumstances a throne. God grant her Majesty Queen VICTORIA, a long and happy reign ! We echo the earnest prayer of thirty millions of people who behold in her accession the vi sitation of the day•star of their hopes. But should the Deity in his inscrutable wisdom visit the nation with one of the heaviest afflictions that could befal it, we are confident that it will be provided before hand against any attempt on the part of the Tory fac tion to set aside that expression of the national will which now begins to demand embodiment in an Act for changing the line of hereditary succession to the Throne of these realms. This subject has already at tracted the attention of some of the most eminent ju • rists in this country. In addressing the electors of the Tower Hamlets, on Monday, Dr. LUSIIINGTON par ticularly dwelt upon the necessity that existed for making the question of the King of HANovER's exclusion from the Crown of England, one of the first to engage the consideration of the New Parliament. " There is one question," said the Hon. and Learned Gentleman, " which must be agitated in the New 'Parliament—a question deeply affecting every man's interest. There is no man more anxious than I am— there is no one who feels more the necessity of ad hering strictly to the regular succession of the Crown. Upon all ordinary occasions the succession must be strictly adhered to ; but there may be a combination of circumstances which may make it necessary to alter that succession. In the New Parliament it must become a question whether the King of HANovER shall be excluded from the succession. I say nothing about his private character —nothing about his being a Tory, and the supporter of all abuses ; but I speak of him as the Grand Master of the Orange Lodges—as having taken a prominent part in their proceedings, with the intention, as I fully believe, of setting aside the present illustrious occupant of the Throne." These are the sentiments of one of the most distinguished jurists in Europe—they are an expression of the feel ings of nineteen-twentieths of the people of Eng land, Ireland, and Scotland—always excepting the ' Orange faction. If, therefore, Cu M BERL AND be beaten in Hanover he may dismiss his day-dreams of the triumph that awaits him in England. According to Dr. LUSIIINGTON, there is ample ground for arraign ing him at the bar of the House of Peers for the crime of high treason. As a British subject, the King of HANOVER is a►nenable to the Constitutional law of this country ; and in taking the oath of alle giance to the QUEEN, acknowledged himself bound by it to an equal extent with the other branches of the Royal Family. We await with intense anxiety the development of events in Hanover. The whole of the Paris Journals of Monday have come to hand. The Moniteur of that date brings the following official intelligence from Spain : ‘. BORDEAUX, Jut 23, FIVE P.M.—On the 15th, in the vicinity of Chiva, Oraa attacked and beat the Pretender, who appears to march in the direction of Cuenca. His head-quarters were the same day at Bunol. The Carlists lost about 2,000 men. Deserters and prisoners entered Valencia on the 16th. " The Baron de Meer has also gained an advantage at Prats de Lusannes, routing the enemy, and recovering the cannon lost at Berga." The following despatch refers to a previous engage ment, of which mention was made in a despatch, in terrupted by nightfall, which appeared in The Sun of yesterday : " MARSEILLES, JULY 22.—The steam-packet Mediterranee, which left Valencia on the 16th, carries letters containing the details of a very bloody affair which took place near that city, ' between the division of General Oraa and the rear-guard of Don Carlos. Th. , result of this combat was not officially known at Valencia ; but the reports in circulation represented it as unfavourable to the Constitutional cause." The advices from Mad rid are of the 16th instant. They continue favourable. ESPARTERO was sta tioned in the vicinity of Guadalaxara—a post greatly approved of by the War Minister. Several arrests took place in the capital between the 10th and 16th inst., but no alarm prevailed in consequence thereof, nor were the citizens under the slightest apprehension of the approach of the Carlists. _ The French Papers denounce more bitterly than the English journals the despotism of the King of HA NOVER. They pronounce him a grater tyrant than CHARLES the TENTH, and express hope:-; that the THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 26, 1837 merited fate of that unhappy Sovereign will not be slow to overtake him. That is a question for the consideration of the people of Hanover. We have before us the following letters addressed to the Spanish Ambassador by an officer of the Foreign Legion. This letter authorises us to believe that there has been much exaggeration in all that has been published relative to the con dition of that Legion : " Pampeluna, July 16, 1837. " When I had the honour to write to you from St. Jean tied de Port on the 13th of this month, to send you the resig nation of my commission in the service of Spain, I believed on the authority of the journals that the Foreign Legion had actually ceased to exist. I have since arrived at Pampeluna, and I see that what remains of that heroic Legion may still render service to the cause of Spanish liberty. " I have, therefore, the honour to request your Excellency to pay no attention to the resignation which I was led by err°• neous statements to send to you. Returning to the Legion, I shall not leave except with it the service of the august Queen who presides at this moment over the destinies of this great people. I therefore withdraw my resignation..

BOROUGH OF MARYLEBONE DECLARATION OF NUMBERS. —....____ The official announcement of the numbers took place to day at the hustings in Portland-place, and before twelve o'clock two or three thousand persons had collected. Lord Teignroouth, attended by a large number of his supporters, arrived about half-past twelve, and on presenting himself in front of the hustings, was loudly cheered. '[ho Noble Lord seemed in excellent spirits notwithstanding his recent defeat, and bore the jokes of his opponents with great good humour. Mr. Hall arrived shortly afterwards ; the Hon. gentleman was preceded by an immense body of his friends in cabs, carriages, waggons, &c., bearing pink and white banners decorated with laurel. The prdcession extended a long way down Portland-place, and presented a very bril liant and animated appearance. The windows and balco nies commanding a view of the hustings were, as on the former occasion, filled with ladies. Sir Samuel Whalley and Mr. Young on presenting themselves were received with mingled cheers and hisses. At half-past one the returning officer, Alderman LAIN sox, came forward, and said it was his duty to announce to them the final state of the poll, which was as follows : For Mr. Hall 3,512 Sir S. Whalley 3,350 Lord Teignmouth ............ 2,954 Mr. Young 764 Sir W. Horne 662 The numbers were received with great cheering. The return to the writ was then signed in the usual form, and the returning officer declared that Mr. B. Hall and Sir Samuel Whalley were duly returned to serve them in Parliament.—(Cheers.) Mr. HALL then presented himself, and was loudly cheered. It was now six months since his name had been announced to them as a candidate. He assured them that he would not have come forward if he had not been called upon by a requisition containing such a number of the electors as would give some character and indication of the wishes of the electors of the borough. He had attended all their district meetings, and had unequivocally stated to them his sentiments, which appeared to be quite in unison with that of the majority of the constituency, and which warranted him in anticipating that he would be placed in his present proud position as their representative.—( Hear, hear, and cheers.) He had dwelt principally upon his recorded votes, which stamped the character of a public man much better than any pledges or assurances which might after wards be broken. He would still adhere to the same line of public conduct unbiassed or uninfluenced by any man. The present was the fourth great contest in which he had been engaged, and in all of them, he was gratified to say, he had been successful.—(Much cheering.) Now that the great contest in which they were engaged had terminated, he trusted that all personal and private animosities it might have engendered would be forgotten. Whoever his col league might have been, it would have been his most anx ious wish to have-coperated with him in every way in his power to promote the private interests of the Borough, even should they be opposed to one another in political prin ciples. The Borough of Marylebone had set a noble ex ample to the rest of the Kingdom in sending two Liberal Members to Parliament ; and so far as he was concerned, he trusted that he would be always found at his post, discharging his duty to the best of his ability, for the promotion of their interests.—(Cheers.) He went into Parliament the most independent man in it,.unallured by the smiles of the Treasury Bench, or unawed by the frowns of his political opponents.—(Great applause.) He believed the present Ministry was calculated to do much good to tb country—(Hear, hear) —but that should never prevent him from opposing their measures, when he conscientiously felt it his duty to do so. He trusted that,neet session of Pare liament, some of the great measures which had been nega ti: ed on former occasions, would be carried. He wished to see the franchise extended, and protected by the ballot. Ele desired a thorough revision of the pension list ; and he should advocate that and every liberal measure that would be brought forward. After thanking the electors for the proud position in which they had placed him, Mr. Hall con cluded amid loud and general cheering. Sir S. WitaeLEY next addressed the electors. He begged to tender them his deep-tett thanks for the kind support they had for the fourth tame extended to him. The principles they had advocated had been very severely tested ; and he trusted that from the present hour all the dissensions existing among the Liberal constituency ofthe borough would be buried upon the field of victory.— ( Cheers.) It was nosy his duty, ac their Representative, to go to Parliament to advocate their interests, which he should continue to do to the best of his ability. The con test had been conducted with the most gentlemanly feeling by all parties engaged in it, and he felt grateful to them for their conduct throughout the last few days. The Hon. Gentleman here entered into an explanation of the motives that had induced Mr. Young to come forward, and afterwards to resign, lest he might endanger the return of one of the pre sent representatives. The metropolitan districts and county had at the last general election returned 18 Reformers, and he was satisfied that it would discharge its duty in an equally honourable manner on the present occasion. He had received in 1832 the votes of 2,165 electors—in 1833, lie had been supported by 2,Boo—in 1835, 2,991 ; and on the present occasion they bad amounted to 3,3so.—(Much cheering.) Lord TEIGNMOUTII then came forward, but the uproar was for some time so great, that he was unable to proceed with his address. He stood there as a defeated candidate, and he was sure they had too much manly, too much Eng lish feeling, to trample on a vanquished foe. He had fought a hard battle for the independence of the borough, and it was not in vain. When he came forward a year and a half ago, he (lid so on a most respectable requisition, and he had been in formed he would not succeed on the first occasion. With the result he was not deceived ; but he had achieved a great triumph, for he had polled 100 more votes than the Hon. Baronet had on the last occasion. Let them be assured then that their cause was triumphant.—(Laughter.) They had contended with great disadvantages—they were opposed by Ministerial influence, and the combination ofcandidates on the opposite side, and under such circumstances they would see him again.—( Renewed laughter.) In consequence of the proceedings that had taken place during the contest, his Committee had come to the resolution that in their opinion he (Lord Teignmouth) had a majority of good votes, and that the result of a scrutiny would secure his return.—(Great interruption, Mr. Hall, and Sir S.Whalley interfered for the purpose of obtaining his Lordship a hear ing.)—He retired from the contest without imputing one single dishonourable act to any of the candidates. •He had experienced great kindness from the electors, and he returned, therefore, to his home and to his privacy with feelings of deep gratification. The day he believed was not distant when he would stand there as their representa tive, and he would conclude by again thanking them for their manly, generous, and honourable conduct. Mr. YOUNG appeared before them as one of the defeated Reform candidates, to thank the great body of Reform electors who held back on his account till twelve o'clock, and then polled for the cause of Reform. He trusted that all that passed would be buried in complete and generous oblivion.—(Cheers.) The result of the contest proved that the power of the Tories was as nothing, when put in opposition to even the divided influence of the Reformers of Marylebone. (Vehement c heering.) No man could feel more gratified at the return of two Reformers than himself, and it was unne cessary for him to enter into the reasons that had induced him to remain so long a candidate, as they had been already stated by Sir S. Whalley. Lord Teignmouth had threa tened a scrutiny, and he doubted not that Mr. Hall would be able to defend himself, and he (Mr. Y.) should be one of those who would assist him in defeating Tory influence, and Tory wealth.—(Loud and continued cheering.) If Mr. Hall, on the termination of the next Session of Par liament, would come forward after having honestly dis charged his duty, let none of his (Mr. Young's) friends look coldly upon him, for, so far as he was concerned, all perso nal feelings between himself and Mr. Hall were buried in oblivion.—(Cheers.) He hoped the present was the last family quarrel they would have in that borough, and nothing would gratify him more than to find all the Reform electors bowing to the decision of the majority of the con stituency, and uniting to support the two Members on whom their choice had fallen.—(Great applause.) Mr. HALL, after pronouncing a high eulogium upon the impartial conduct pursued by the Returning Officer, pro posed a vote of thanks to that Gentleman, which was se conded by Sir Samuel Whalley, and responded to unani mously by the assembled multitude. Mr. Alderman LAINSON briefly returned thanks, and the meeting quietly separated. LAMBETH ELECTION. DECLARATION OF TIIE POLL. The Returning Officer for this borough fixed one o'clock this day for declaring the numbers of those who voted for the respective candidates, but the parties did not arrive on the hustings till a quarter after two o'clock. The Members arrived with music and were loudly cheered. Mr. Baldwin did not appear. The RETURNING OFFICER declared the numbers to be, for— _ _ Mr. Hawes . 2,934 Mr. D'Eyncourt 2,811 Mr. Baldwin The announcement was received with loud cheers, and cries of " Where is Mr. Baldwin ? He's gone to Hano ver.”—(Laughter.) The Members then returned thanks, and the meeting separated. . THE FUNDS.

The Returning Officer havin , fixed one o'clock as the hour at which he would announce the state of the poll an immense number of persons bad long before that time THREE O'CLOCK. The new Companies have been formed in _ for the manufacture of beet-root sugar. Two letters received from Lyons mention that trade was recovering a little. The port returns from Marseilles for last month showed, as compared with the cor res p ondin g month of 1836, a falling off of the revenue in the amount of 411,000 francs, and that the number of vessels arrived and de parted the last month bad been 208 less than in the month of June, 1836. A letter from Naples, dated the 4th inst., says : " There have been already 150 deaths from cholera at Pa lermo. Here, within the last 2 days, there seems to have been some improvement, but the daily deaths are still very little under 400. The theatres have been re-opened, and Dom zetti's new opera, Belisario, draws good houses. Several families have been completely swept away by the epidemic; and the other evening, walking through the Strada di Toledo, I met no less than 39 dettd bodies in less than an hour. In no European city has the cholera raged to the same extent as here, and heaven knows what we have to expe ct during the hot weather, which may soon be expected to set in." THE ANIMAL'S FRIEND Ttze ho norary secretary and agents of the Society, last week, charged the driver of a cab, without a number, with having' lashed a horse in the most barbarous manner, its sides having been lite rally covered with wheals, and its car having been tied to its neck with a sharp cord at the time. George Heath stopped the offender, and three of the offender's comrades who had in turn ill-treated the horse made their escape. The offender was taken by the Policeman 176, and 103, L, on the spot, and con veyed before Mr. Wedgwood, who fined him 2/., but not paying he was committed for 14 days. A boy, charged by the Society, named Greenaway, was also strongly reprimanded by Mr. Je remy for cruelty to an ass. Two Paddington omnibus drivers, SO, Warburton, and 16, Taylor, were likewise charged by the Society, before Alderman White, with having, while furiously driving with a load of passengers, violently lashed the horses for 200 or 300 yards. It is a pity that the worthy alderman, though he approved of the Society, could not consider that this was cruelty such as ought to be punished, and he therefore dismissed the cases and fined the Society in costs The Sentinelle des Pyrenees gives the following intelligence from the Basque Provinces ;—" General Don Jose Uranga has just set at liberty the Count de Casa Eguia, who has so long been confined in the castle of Sorlada. The late prisoner is gone to Elorrio. By another order of General Uranga, the Police of Safety established in the three Basque Provinces and Navarre had been suppressed, as contrary to the Fueros or privileges of these provinces." The Princess- Suhnona gave birth to a Prince on the 6th inst. at the Villa Aldobrandini, near Frescati, where the event was immediately celebrated with much public re joicings. The baptism of this infant heir to the honours of the house of Borghese was shortly after solemnised with much pomp by Cardinal di Gregorio, Cardinal Bishop of Tuseulurn, The names conferred were Camillo John, the former a vourite family name among the Borgheses, the latter was given in compliment to the Earl of Shrewsbury, grandfather of the little Prince. Both the mother and the infant are doing well. The Duke and Duchess of Bedford have been pass ing the last four weeks at their seat in Devonshire ; to they return to town, and next week their Graces will go to Woburn Abbey. Early in August they will leave for the Highlands of Scotland. Yesterday morning, at five o'clock, a meeting took place in a field at the foot of Primrose-hill, near Chalk-farm Tavere, between Augustus Finchley Irvine, E , q., and Vin cent Butler, Esq., residing in York-street, Bryaniton-square. Both parties arrived on the ground with their seconds, who proposed a reconciliation, but it was indignantly rejected by both. The distance being measured the hostile parties took up their positions. The signal having been given to fire, Mr. Irvine received the contents of his antagonist's pistol in his pis tol arm, above his wrist. Mr. B. immediately advanced to Mr. Irt ine, who shook bands with him, and after the wound was dressed both parties quitted the ground. The cause of the meatirig is not known. The M.!rquis and Marchioness of Westminster will remain at Grosvenor House until they learn the result of the elections ; they then go to Moor Park, near Rickinansworth, until ti,e month of September, when the family will proceed to Ett.crt Hall, Cheshire, for the winter, issia assembled oa Islington-green in front of the in2;tings. Ti:2 successful candidates arrived at the head of their respective processions, with bands playing and streamers floating in the air. Immediately Mr. Wakley and Mr. Duncombe were re cognised on the hustings they were greeted with loud and enthusiastic cheering. Shortly after one o'clock the Returning Officer, Benja min Hardwicke, Esq., announced the state of the poll as follows : for T. Wakley, Esq 49s7—(Loud cheers.) T. S. Duncombe, Esq 4895—( Loud cheers.) D. M. Perceval, Esq 247o—(Groans, hisses, and laughter.) The Returning Officer then declared that Thomas Wakley, Esq , and Thomas Slingsby Duncombe. Esq. were duly elected, to serve in the ensuing Parliament, as Representatives for the Borough of Finsbury. (Immense cheering which lasted for several minutes.) Mr. WAKLEY then came forward and was received with several rounds of applause. It was now scarcely five years since when he first had the honour of appearing before them ; and though he did not pretend to be gifted with any great power of prophecy, yet he on that occa sion predicted that at this time the Radical cause would be at the head of the poll.—(Cheers.) The Tories had ex perienced a most signal defeat.—(Cheers.) He believed Finsbury would ever be represented by men who were attached to the cause of Constitutional Reform. The Tories who were opposed to reform were always misrepre senting everything. The old Times newspaper was always crying out against the New Poor-law, but still refused the poor that which would enable them to get rid of it, the extension of the Elective Franchise.—(Hear, hear, i and cheers) A coun t e racting influenced the that paper he was determined should be got up, an way to put down that paper was by union among the Reformers. — (Cheers.) If the people had been fairly represented, such an Act as the New Poor-law Act would never have pasSed the House of Commons. He contended that the New Poor-law Act not merely wanted re-modelling, but repeal ing ; he had never given his sanction to it, and never would. —(Cheers.) He had said nothing about the Poor-law Bill before, because he did not wish to obtain one vote on account of his opposition to that Bill. The Times only viewed the Poor Law Bill as an instrument of annoyance to its po litical enemies. If the filthy old Times could starve the people, they would all be starved to-morrow.—(Cheers and laughter.) He believed the Poor-Law Act an unconstu tional measure, but still he hoped they would not listen to any factious cries from the Tories or the Tory Preas. He did not wish for reforms merely for the sake of a change ; what he wanted was such an alteration in the state of things as would prove advantageous to the people, without injuring or hurting any one.—(Cheers.) What they wanted was equality of rights, and an equalisation of the suffrage ; and he believed her Majesty's Ministers would very shortly come forward with such measures as would induce every honest Reformer to support them with all their might and all their zeal.—(Cheers.) He expressed his fervent gra titude for the high honour they had conferred upon him by placing him at the head of the poll, having polled 1,600 more than he did on the last occasion ; and he believed his Hon. Friend (Mr. Duncombe) had polled 300 more, forming altogether a goodly number of Reformers. (Cheers.) He ended the contest as he had began it, with the kindest feelings towards Mr. Perceval. Mr. Perceval and his Com mittee had disavowed all knowledge of the atrocious pla cards which had been issued, and he believed those gen tlemen to be honest—(Hear, hear) --:--but he (Mr. Wak ley) had several enemies who endeavoured to injure his private character, because he had prevented them robbing the public.—(Cheers.) lie had received a note from Mr. Perceval, stating that he had been advised by his friends not to attend there to-clay—(Laughter)— fearing his presence might disturb the unanimity of the meeting. He thought he had adopted a wise course.— (Cheers and laughter.) The lion. Gentleman concluded by expressng his heartfelt gratitude for the honour he had received at their hands.—(Tremendous cheering.) Mr. DUNCOMBE then presented himself, and was received with enthusiastic cheering. His voice would not permit him to say much, being very hoarse ; but he sincerely thanked them for the support they had given him. His Horeurable Cc.lleague had told them Mr. Perceval kad been advised not to come before them to-day.— ( Hear, hear.) He thought it vas to be regretted those friends did not give him the same advice on Monday last, when he was put in n omination.—(Laughter and cheers.) He was glad, however, that Mr. Perceval had come forward, because he had enabled the electors of Finsbury to show by their votes that Tory Hanoverian principles found no favour in their eyes.—(Cheering.) He would allude again to those placards which had been distributed throughout the borough, attacking his private character ; a jury of his country should decide whether those calumnies were true or false.—(Cheers.) But the Rev. Mr. Mortimer—(Groans) —had addressed a letter to Mr. Perceval, and which had been printed and circulated throughout the borough, in which Mr. Mortimer stated he hoped all there who had the fear of God before their eyes would vote for Mr. Perceval.—(" Shame, shame 1") He (Mr. Duncombe) could only say that he never read such gross blasphemy as was contained in that letter.—(Loud cheers.) However, the electors had not allowed themselves to be intimidated or priest-ridden, and he believed they never would.—(Cheers.) Some one had asked him if he did not feel disappointed at not being at the head of the poll. No such petty feeling existed in his heart. If there was any man in the House of Commons who from his assiduity deserved to be placed at the head of the poll, that man was Mr. Wakley.—(Cheers.) The electors had placed him where he ought to he ; so long as he continued the course he had hitherto pursued, he trusted they would keep him in that station. The Hon. Gentleman withdrew amidst immense cheers. Mr. LUTWIDGE came forward voluntarily as the Repre sentative of Mr. Perceval—(Groans)—to thank his sup porters for their votes. Mr. Percival did not envy the two gentlemen who had been'returned ; neither was he chagrined at his defeat, although he would have been better pleased if he had been at the head of the poll.—(Hisses.) A vote of thanks was then given to the Returning Officer, and after three cheers for the Queen, and three cheers for Wakley and Duncombe, the crowd dispersed. Mr. Duncombe will be chaired this evening, but Mr. Wakley's Committee have postponed the chairing of that gentleman for a week. ELECTIONS THIS DAY WESTMINSTER.

His lordship's demise was very unexpected ;he had only just returned from attending his parliamentary duties ; and, although indisposed, his illness was not considered of any importance, and he had appointed the times and places for holding his visitations and confirmations for the present year. On Sunday morning, however, he was seized with in flammation, and, notwithstanding the best medical advice, died at seven o'clock the following morning. His lordship, who was in his 56th year, has left a family of fourteen chil dren, the youngest of whom is only about a year and a half old. He was, we believe, married three time 3. The Bishop was elevated to the episc o p al bench, on the death of Dr. Isaac Iluntingford, in 1832, under the a dministration of his brother, Earl Grey; and the appointment was made in the mos lot flat tering manner by the late King. In politics isdhi usually supported the Whi g s. Ile was considered to be a very soun d divine, and an excellent Greek scholar, perhaps the best in the country. In private life his lordship was highly esteemed for his charity, urbanity, and kindness, and was generally looked up to as a pattern of deep and fer vent piety. His lordship, we believe, held a prebendal stall i n Westminster Abbey, which, with the limited income of the bishopric of Here ford, was considered to be onl y a fair ie equi valent for giving up the valuable rectory of Bishopsgate on his elevation to the episcopal bench.

Ll' NARRATIVE OF AN EXPEDITION INTO THE INTERIOR OF AFRICA, 2 Vols. Bentley, London, 1837. The object of this expedition, says Mr. Macgregor Laird in his preface, was two-fold—first, to open a direct commercial intercourse with the inhabitants of Central Africa ; and secondly, to ascertain whether the main artery of the country (the Niger) could be as cended and descended with perfect safety, in moderately . sized vessels from the sea to Boussa. As regards the last point, the expedition was perfectly successful ; but it failed in the former, owing to a variety of un foreseen causes, among which we may mention the mpracticable character of the chiefs of the native ribes who dwell on the banks of the Niger, and ,he dreadful mortality that prevailed in the steam-boats, in their passage through the swamps and low grounds. Up to the period when it reached these pestilential spots, which stretch for a considetable distance along the river's hanks, in the neighbournood of the Eboe country, the expedition enjoyed excellent health ; but the poisonous effluvia constantly exhaling from the swamps, induced disorders of the most frightful kind, to which many of the crew of the Quorra—and among them Dr. Briggs, an in- telligent young Scottish physician—fell vi Aims Alluding to this subject, Mr. Laird says,— " The horrid, sickening stench of this mia msi must be experienced to be conceived ; no description of it can con vey to the mind the wretched sensation that is felt for some time before and after day-break. In these accursed swamps one is oppressed, not only bodily, but mentally, with an indescribable feeling of heaviness, languor, nausea, and dis gust, which requires a considerable effort to shake off. The application of a blister over the head seemed to afford the greatest relief and in my own case and that of Mr. Briggs, was, under Providence, the means of saving us. .After this is done, I do not think that medical skill can go further• ; the ques tion becomes a pitched battle between the fever and the constitution of the person attacked with it ; and medicine, after the first necessary emetics and purgatives, does more harm than good. In recovering, the greatest caution is necessary ; excitement of any kind must .be avoided, and great care niust be taken that the patient does not give way• to his voracious appetite ; a relapse is generally fatal, and always more dangerous than the first attack." After remaining for some days in the neighbourhood of the swamps, the steam•boats not having healthy men enough to work them, the Expedition, slowly and with great difficulty, managed to get up as far as Attab, a populous town, situated at the entrance of the valley of the Niger, and commanding the whole trade of the interior, " which trade," observes the author, '' although trifling at present, it requires no prophet to foresee will hereafter be immense." While lying at anchor off Attah, Mr. Laird was an eye witness of the way in which the natives kill alligators; and gives us the following amusing description of it : " One day, while we lay at anchor off the town of At tali, I witnessed one of the most ingenious ways of killing an alligator that could be imagined. One of these huge creatures was discovered basking on a bank in the river, a. short distance ahead of our vessels. He was observed by two natives in a canoe, who immediately paddled to the opposite side of the bank, and, having landed, crept cau tiously towards him. As soon as they were near the ani mal, one of the natives stood up from his crouchay position, holding a spear about six feet long, which with one blow he struck through the animal's tail into the sand. A most strenuous contest immediately ensued ; the man with the spear holding it in the sand as firmly as his strength allowed him, and clinging to it as it became necessary to shift his position with the agility of a monkey ; while his companion occasionally rata in as opportunity offered, and with much dexterity gave the animal a thrust with his long knife, retreating at the same moment from within reach of its capacious jaws as it wheeled round upon the extraordinary pivot which his companion had so successfully placed in its tail. The battle lasted about half an hour, terminating in the slaughter of the alligator, and the triumph of his conquerors, who W ere not long in cutting him into pieces and loading their canoes with the flesh, which they immediately carried to the shore and retailed to their countrymen. It is evident thi.t the success of this plan depended on the nerve and dexterity of the man who pinned the animal's tail to the ground ; and his contortions and struggles to keep his position were highly ridiculous and entertaining. Mr. Laird describes the scenery of the Niger as being in many places of the most magnificent descrip tion. Towns and villages, populous as bee-hives, abound on its banks, some on a level with its waters, and some perched on high table-lands, or nestled among steep crags, so as almost to bid defiance to at tack. Generally speaking, he found the natives of the mountain districts active, bold, intelligent, an d a s straitforward as it is possible for savages to be ; but the inhabitants of the lowlands, quite the reverse, being made up of fraud, cunning, and cowardice, so that it was next to impossible to trade with them o'n' a n y 'sa tisfactory basis. The following is one of the many striking landscapes that the Expedition beheld in the course of their long and troublesome voyage up the Niger : In the morning we were again under weigh, and a few minutes afterwards opened one of the noblest reaches that the imagination could have conceived. An immense river, about three thousand yards wide, extending as far as the eye could reach, lay before us, flowing majestically between its banks, which rose gradually to a considerable height, and were studded with clumps of trees and brushwood , giving them the appearance of a gentleman's park ; while the smoke rising from different towns on its banks, anal the number of canoes floating on its bosom, gave it an aspect of security and peace tar beyond any African scene I had yet witnessed. The confluence of the Sharry was just in sight, and a range of low hills on the northern bank trended east-north-east ; while on the western bank o f the Niger, were two remarkable, isolated table-lands of a re' mantic and beautiful appearance, giving a finish to a pie ture to which no description can do adequate justice." The whole population of the Niger is, it seems, of * commercial character, men, women and children being all busily engaged in carrying on trade.. The traffic ill slaves, cloth, and gold, howeVer, is confined to the men, but everything else is managed by the wothen, who are as expert as Jews in the art of overcharging , Our readers may perhaps desire to know how Mr. Laird beguiled his leisure-hours when the steam-boats were at anchor in the river, and there was no press ing necessity for active exertion. He relieved, he tells us, the cheerlessness of his condition by the pert' sal cf Scott's novels and Blackwood's Magazines ° perfect copy of which he had taken' care to bring out with him I Here is a compliment to Christopher North I Well may that " old man eloquent" c h u ckle to think that he has been read and admired on the banks of the Niger, in the heart of vast regions n ever before explored by Europeans.
