LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING. AUGUST 4, 1837. The North Wilts Nomination took place yester day at Devizes, and, gracious Heaven, what a spec tacle was there exhibited ! An old man, the mere wreck of what he once was, stood on the hustings, trembling in every limb, with the eager desire of dot- age to prove that it is just as sound—just as vigorous in intellect—as it was in the days of its meridian manhood. That man was Sir F. BURDETT ! Well might the sternest stoic have wept scalding tears to see such a man in such a situation But the Honour able Baronet, callous as the nether millstone to all feelings of shame and remorse, stood insolently for ward, cased in the triple-brass of unadulteratel To ryism, to assure the few who heard him, and the still fewer who believed him, that he was still un changed. He was just as staunch an advocate, he said, for the liberties of Englishmen, as ever. The sun might sooner change its course than he. What he was in youth, he still was in age. Is this really so, Sir FRANCIS ? Then how comes S r JOHN IoB HOUSE to be among the number of your Opponents ? How is it that Mr. PAUL METHUEN feels it a sacred duty to proclaim war afainst vou " to the knife ?" For shame, man, for shame ! If you must be a Tory, in GOD'S name, have the honesty to confess you; creed ; but, as you are a ,7entleman—as you are an Englishman—ss you are a lover of truth, and a hater of falsehood—do not speak one way and act another ; —do not blow hot and cold ;—but, wishing well, as we all know you do, to Tory tyranny, stand boldly up for Tory tyranny ;—hoist the black flag, and fight under it to the death. In a word, be "something, anything, but mean." Lord LYNDHURST is not ashamed to avow his creed ; why, then, should you be ? But possibly you are ambitious of signalising yourself as the basest—the most reckless—the most colossal public apostate that ever degraded human nature ; and if so, we have nothing more to allege, for the great object of your ambition is accomplished. Unchanged indeed ! Sir FRANCIS BURDETT un changed! with some twenty or thirty pounds' worth of hired Tory mob shouting his praises I with Tories for his supporters ; Tories for his voters ; Tories for his Committee-men ; with Carlton Club cash for his ex chequer ; and Carlton Club leaders for his well wishers Sir FRANCIS unchanged, with all this damning weight of evidence against him I Curses on the fool—the knave—who can for one single instant give in to such an absurd hypothesis But let us hear JUDAS ISCARIOT himself. He is unchanged, he says. What, by striking at the root of all civil and religious freedom in his wholesale at tack "on the long-prosecuted Irish Papists ; by calling them, en masse, " bigotted, ignorant, and insane Irish Papists ;" by pampering to the avaricious, intolerant tastes of the Church—were the man one of the cloth, we should say he was qualifying for a Bishop—by swearing black is white, and white black ; by sticking to faction instead of to the people ; by perversely con founding all the distinctions between truth and false hood ; and—to wind up the long catalogue of his fla grant inconsistencies—by expressing his determination to oppose Ministers tooth and nail, for no other reason than that they bid fair to reduce to practice those Re forms, which he spent the best portion of his days in advocating. The man who acts in this way, is un changed ! Electors of North Wilts, will you allow yourselves to be gulled by such brazen sophistry ? Will you presume, even for a second, to think of re turning the man who after telling you that all Irish Catholics are " bigotted, ignorant, and insane," tells you the very instant afterwards that he " would not raise a cry against any one's religion ?" Who dri vels forth a falsehood in one sentence, only to contradict it in the next. Will you, men of Wilt shire, believe such a man ? Impossible ! you cannot so far forget your duties as Christians—as men—as citizens. But if you refuse to be convinced by the Honour able Baronet's logic, sure we are you will not be convinced by that of his bludgeon-men ? You will not be terrified into voting in his favour, even though a Noble Lord has had his head broken, because he was not suf ficiently impressed with a sense of Sir FRANCIS'S con sistency. You will act—and act rightly—in the spirit re commended by that able local journal, the IViltshire In dependent, which, alluding to the Hon. Baronet, says— " There is a die of disgrace so peculiarly revolting in partnership with BURDETT, that, as we anticipated, we now learn that many of the more religious portion of the Conservatives of Wiltshire, as indeed in all other parts of the country, shrink from containinati with a person so immersed in political infamy and moral degradation." And well they may. So long as the heart of England remains sound, there will always be an overwhelming mass of the community who will hold the recent conduct of Sir FRANCIS in the most unqualified abhorrence. But the Honourable Baronet, it would appear, has neither faith in himself nor confidence in the electors. Anticipating a flagrant defeat, he has actually bar gained for Marlborough ! Men of North Wilts, is not this another cogent reason why you should kick out the apostate ? He does not trust wholly to your good _ _. feeling ; he does not throw himself unreservedly on you—far from it ; he feels to his heart's core that he is a traitor to Reform, so endeavours, in the probable event of his failure with you, to secure his re turn for a borough whose constituents will not be over likely to enquire too d riaily into his principles. . . . . .... _ Electors of North Wilts,is it possible you can hesi tate in choosing between BURDETT and METHUEN— between the canting , sentimental egotist, and the silent suffering father ? The latter has been just subjected to one of the severest calamities which humanity can labour under, and endures it in meek silence ; the for- mer has a " chalk-stone in his heel," and takes spe cial care that all England shall ring with his afflic tions ! The one hawks about his pains by way of bribing you into sympathy—as he did the other day at Westminster—the other says nothing, but mourns in the solitude of his chamber. We are aware that this is a delicate subject to touch upon—still it is one that shows character, and therefore should not be omitted in our reference, not so much to Mr. MET 11- VETI as Sir FRANCIS BURDETT. Maudlin senti mentality is one of the most unerring symptoms of dotage. Hence the Hon. Baronet's incessant parade of his ill-health, and the chalk-stone in his heel 1 We are yet, however, to learn that such an infirmity is a re commendation to a candidate for North Wiltshire. We should have thought that such a man would have talked to the electors of his physical strength, rather than his physical weakness ; but Sir FRANCIS thinks not ; and we are glad of it, for. it convinces us that he knows nothing of the men with whom he has to deal. Again, then, we say—Electors of North Wilts, kick out Burdett. Kick him out, and without the slightest ceremony, or the time may arrive when he will kick you out of the franchise. Remember, he is the most bigotted member of a faction whose first great object is to repeal—or at any rate—to embarrass the Reform Bill. He swears by those who swear by the King of HA NOVER. He sits side by side with PEEL ; he wears the Tamworth livery ; and will willingly do all the dirty work which the leaders of the faction have too much discretion to attempt. Remember, also, he has no public character to lose. Dip him in Fleet-ditch, or anoint him from head to foot with pitch—still you cannot make him blacker than he is. Out with him then—out with him, despite the " chalkstone in his heel," and the gout in his toe. When you have dis missed him from the representation of your county, then it will be quite time enough to sympathize with him as a private individual. We are indebted to the extraordinary expedition of two Morning Contemporaries, the Advertiser and the Herald , for a report of the speeches and proceedings: at the nomination yesterday, at Carlisle, of the candi dates for the representation of East Cumberland, which will be found in our columns of this day. The reception which Sr JA NT Es GRA HAM met with, on presenting himself before his abused constituents, must have occasioned him some deeply mortifying twitches of conscience. With all his brazen effrentery and affected contempt for the charges brought against him, we cannot believe him so lost to the influence of public opinion—to all sense of shame and all re 12ard for character—as not to have writhed under the honest scowl of the Cumberland farmers when they refused to hear a defence of his political ars tacy. Most keenly must he have felt the bit ter scorn with which his pitiful attack on the Government was repudiated—the shout of derision which responded to his professions of unabated zeal for the welfare of the county. It was well observed by Mr. SALK ELD, that the greatest anarchists are those who by their conduct destroy all public confi dence in public men ; and he might with equal truth have added, that of all anarchists, they are the most mean-spirited and contemptible. The temptations to political apostacy arc always filthy lucre, and the baubles with which a corrupt Court gratifies the vanity of parasitical egotism. But the rewards of political crime arc not always forthcoming—Sir ROBERT PEEL was not sufficiently long in office to procure a Coronet for BURDETT, and a seat in the Cabinet for STANLEY and GRAHAM. At a moment when the Tories thought that they held the reins of Government for another quarter of a cen tury at least, and when three apostates from Radical ism were congratulating themselves on a life-enjoyment of the Court bounty for perversion to Toryism, the people rose in their might, and bearing Lord MEL BOURNE on their shoulders, placed him in the chair of the Premier of England. The rage and disap pointment of the apostates were unbounded. Their protestations of sinceritv—when they found no other help for them—were unheeded. Distrusted by the Tories, aiid detested by the Reformers, they were left to bemoan, in bitterness of spirit, their forgetfulness of the old maxim—that .‘ honesty is the best policy I" Electors of East Cumberland I we rely with con fidence upon your political integrity. You cannot— you will not suffer yourselves to be longer the dupes of an apostate Baronet, who basely employed the power with which you entrusted him to rob yourselves and your fellow-countrymen of the fruits of the Re form Bill—to saddle England with a Tory Adminis tration—to oppose the removal of all abuses in the Church, and in the civil and ecclesiastical government of Ireland. You are Englishmen, and must detest the meanness of political apostacy. If you want a Tory to represent you—which we are convinced you do not —there are honest, consistent, intelligent Tories among you, ready to thank you for your suffrages. Do not, therefore disgrace yourselves by sending as your repre sentative to Parliament, a man for whose political cha racter no opinion can be entertained but that of con tempt and abhorrence. Sir JAMES GRAHAM bilked the Radicals and betrayed the Whigs ; and were it his interest to-morrow, he would rejoin both against the Tories. To return such a man to Parliament is to inflict a deep injury on the political morality of the country—to set an example to the nation of popu lar contempt for consistency in principles approved of by the people. It is the apostacy, not the Toryism, that calls for signal punishment. This is a view of the ques tion which must strike every honest Cumberland elector ; and we sincerely trust the result of the poll will convince us that the franchise for the Eastern Division of the County is in honest hands. If, men of Cumberland I you now forget the apostacy of Sir JAMES GRAHAM—if you show yourselves indifferent to the curse which a Tory Government, supported by such apostates as GRAHAM, BURDETT, and STAN LEY, would inflict upon the British Empire—may your country forget you in the moment of her triumph f But we are supposing an impossibility. You cannot prefer to such staunch and consistent Reformers as Mr. JAMES and Major AGLIONBY, such a base re creant—such a politically abortive non-entity as the cad of the «Derby.JAMES GRAHAM— Impossible ! impossible I The cause of Reform proceeds gloriously in Scot land. Sir GEORGE CLERK has been sent adrift by the electors of Edinburghshire, and Sir JAMES GIB SOY CRAIG substituted in his room. This is a real triumph. Not only does a staunch Reformer take the place of a thorough-paced Tory in the metropo litan county of Scotland—a circumstance of no small importance in measuring the extent of that re-action which, we were told, had overspread the land—but the Tory thus displaced was the Coryphmus—the fug,leman—pf the whole party in Scotland of late years, as he had in former times been their jobber general. He had, moreover, endeavoured to root him self in the representation of the county, by the fabrica tion of votes after the old and approved fashion in times—blessed be GOD, gone by never to return —when the people of Scotland were swindled out of their elective rights by a few selfish aristocrats, and sold to the Government of the day. In Dundee Sir HENRY PARNELL has beaten three to one the Tory candidate brought forward, we should say very injudiciously, to contest the represen tation of that populous and influential town. This is one additional proof—could that proof admit of any addition—that in all the constituencies where the To ries cannot bring their favourite instruments, bribery and intimidation, into play, they have no chance of success. Wherever the electors are in a state to exer cise freely the elective franchise, there the tools of the faction are sure to receive an edifying castigation. No man was more likely to succeed—had a Tory been en durable at Dundee—than Mr. JOHN GLADSTONE. He has accumulated a very large fortune, and ac quired great distinction, by his application to mercan tile pursuits—is much esteemed in private society by persons of all parties—and possesses a good deal of local influence from being the proprietor of extensive estates in the county. Yet all these things were of no avail— he went to the wall the first shock. The Reformers of Dundee, of all shades and degrees, lost sight of their divisions on local subjects, and to a man supported Sir HENRY PA KNELL, though some of them were far from satisfied with his Parliamentary conduct on cer tain points. Most honourable and praiseworthy is such a course. Would that every-divided constituency had acted, and would act, with the same noble self denial—the same patriotic zeal for the cause—the same sacrifice of individual interests, where the general interest demands it. In Peebleshire there is not the least doubt, from the progress of the Reformer, Mr. CAnmicriAEL, on the first day, that that gentleman would send back to whence he came, with the marks of signal discomfiture, the Tory interloper who had been brought upon the stage, and that in this county a vote will be gained to the side of Reform. In Selkirkshire a similar re sult is confidently anticipated, though the Tory candidate has been bolstered up by a batch of no less than forty bad votes. Renfrewshire is also determined to do its duty, if we may judge from Mr. STEWART'S majority on the first day's poll, which is generally a pretty safe criterion of a Scottish election. Of Aberdeenshire we cannot speak so confidently, although even there we are not without hope that a victory is in store for Reform. Captain Go RDoN is one of a class of senators whom we dislike exceedingly, and we hail with pleasure the opportunity which has now occurred of getting rid of him. Our only regret is, that the Reform candidate should not have bees► brought forward sooner. That, however, cannot now be remedied. Sir T. BURNETT, a man of great influence in the county, the patron of many of the foundations or bursaries in the Universities of Ahrrdcen, as well as of livings in the Church—his attachment to which his greatest enemy cannot ques tion—has raised the standard of the QUEEN and of the Constitution ; and the Tories, deprived of the influence of the Duke of Gouport, as well as of some other props of the same sort on which they fi!mly relied, are in dismay. The majority of the electors arc known to be favourable to Reform, and Captain Go IWO N never would have represented the county liad they not been compelled to vote against their consciences. The Reformers of Banffshire have exerted themselves with an energy that does them infinite honour, to re turn a supporter of the good cause to the next Par liament ; and according to the Aberdeen Tiered, whose sources of information cannot be douhted, their efforts will be crowned with success. " Banffshire," says that Paper, " is safe." The whole of the Paris Journals of Wednesday have been received. No authentic intelligence had reached the Government respecting the progress of the war in Spain. According to one report the Pretender was on the 30th, seriously ill at Cantavieja, in which he was threatened with a siege by ORAA. Letters from Sa ragossa of the preceding day stated that his indisposi tion was only slight, and that he had made a movement on Cenia, as if his intention was to cross the Ebro im mediately. ORAA, according to the same authority, was at his heels at the head of his division. One or other of these accounts must be erroneous. The pro bability is that both are fictions. Santander had not been attacked on the 28th, notwithstanding -the fears of the French Consul. Troops had been sent from San Sebastian to attack Castor, who at the head of 2,400 infantry and a handful of horse had fixed his head quarters at Onieda. The advices from Madrid are to the 26th ult. The health of the young QUEEN was then exceedingly de licate. The capital was tranquil, and the Cortes were proceeding, v‘ith little interruption, with the Ecclesias tical Reform and Elective Franchise Bills. On the 25th the Gazette contained a Royal Decree for the ex clusion of all vessels bearing the Sardinian flag from the ports and harbours of Spain. Prefixed to the Decree is a preamble showing that this measure is purely retaliatory as the Sardinian Government, on the Ist July closed its ports against the Spanish flag, and ordered the Spanish Consuls to cease their functions without deigning to signify such an order, otherwise than by the mouth of its petty functionaries. The following are the retaliatory articles :- 1. That all the ports of the kingdom be immediately shut against the Sardinian flag, excepting only the merchant ves sels which before the Ist of January, 1838, may arrive from countries beyond sea, laden with cargoes belonging to, or consigned to, Spaniards, unless there be a just reason to pre vent it. 2. That all consular functions, whether public or private, of all Sardinian Consuls and Vice-Consuls that may be in this kingdom, do immediately and absolutely cease, who are not to be allowed to remain, except in the character of private indi viduals, without any other consideration but that which they deserve as such. __ 3. And that they, as well as any other Sardinian subjects residing in Spain, or passing through it, be from this moment in everything subject to the common law, without any privilege as foreigners. There is no domestic news in the Paris Journals o Wednesday. The latest accounts from Naples are to the 19th ult. The mortality at Palermo had decreased to about five hundred deaths daily, or one-third the number of victims swept away daily during the preceding week. Riots had occurred at Messina, in the course of which several lives were lost. Large bodies of troops were sent against Palermo and Messina, with orders to de stroy both cities, in the event of meeting with a deter mined resistance. A letter from the frontiers of Navarre, July 27, says : " By an order of the Carlist Junta, with the approbation of Garcia, a repartition of 30,000 fanegas of wheat, and b,OOO fanegas of oats, was made on the 20th among the villages oc cupied by the Carlists. " The tvro:battalions of sharpshooters of Isabella 11. which were stationed on the line of Roncevaux, received on the 22d orders from General Escalera on the side of Godosa. "P. p.m.—We were assured that General Jaureguy marched from St. Sebastian this morning, taking the road to Tolosa." _ _ • A report is spread that the band of Quilez has had an ac tion with the division of General Nogueras, and that the Car lists had sustained considerable loss.—Sentixelle des Ty renees. The same journal says, the loan of 260 millions of francs was broken off at the moment that the parties interested were going to affix.their signatures to it. England required in ex change for its guarantee the benefits of a Secret Treaty of Commerce with Spain, which had given its consent, when the French Government interposed its veto, with a threat to with draw from the Quadruple Alliance. It is affirmed that fresh negotiations have taken place, but on other bases.' These lines are a confirmation of the following ;- " PARIS, Auo. 1.-Nothing was talked of on 'Change to • day but the departure of the three Messrs. Rothschild, now at Paris. Messrs. Anselm and Solomon are going to London, and Mr. James Rothschild to Frankfort. It is supposed that it is intended to come to a final resolution respecting the loan which the Government of Queen Christina has long solicited. -Le Commerce. FRENCH FUNDS -Pants, AUGUST 2.

Secretary of State for the Colonies, and his Excellency, Sir Colin Campbell. The former will be forwarded by the Clio, which is to sail to-mor row fur Liverpool. We are ignorant of the nature of the des patches; they possibly have reference to the meeting of the New Brunswick Legislature, which, according to the procla mation of his Excellency, was to take place on Thursday last. The Fredericktown Gazette of the sth of July, gives the following from the State of Maine : " ACOUSTA, JUNE 27.—GENERAL ORDEL—Fellow soldiers —The soil of our State has been invaded ; one of our citizens while in performance of the duty required by law, was ar rested within the territory of Maine, and carried to the adja cent foreign province, where he now remains incarcerated within the walls of a prison. This is but a repetition of former acts of injustice committed against our border inhabitants, by ofs"icers acting under the authority of the British province of New Brunswick. The integrity of the State must be pre served. Maine looks to the General Government for redress. Our citizens must be secure within our limits, and it may be found necessary to bring forth military power to give that protection to which they are entitled. The Commander-in- Chief, therefore, calls upon the militia to hold themselves in readiness to obey such orders, as the security of our citizens and the honour of the State may require. " A. B. THO NIPSON, Adjutant-General." We have received the Barbadian of the 21st of June. It states that the small pox continued to decrease most rapidly. The House of Assembly met, and got through some business. Demarara Papers to the 13th June, announce the complete extinction of small pox in the colony. From Grenada we learn that the continued dry weather had seriously injured the growing crop, and that the return of pro duce for the present year would afford an appalling picture. THE FUNDS.

The Journal du Commerce received this morning has the fol lowing :—" The principal topic of conversation on the Bourse of Paris this day entirely relates to the journey of Roths child's three brothers, who are at present in Paris. Messrs. Anselm and Solomon Rothschild leave for London, and Mr. James for Frankfort; their object is believed to be to take a final decision respecting the loan solicited by the Govern ment of the Queen of Spain. Coupled with the above in telligence, we learn that J. Alvarez, cousin of M. Nlendi. zabal, left London yesterday for Madrid with despatches." On the above subject we have made the necessary inquiries, and we can positively state that the journey of the three Baron de Rothschilds has no connection with a Spanish loan ; two of the Batons have already left Paris for Frankfort, and one i s c oming to London with the Baroness, who intends to be present at the accouchment of the Baroness de Lionel Roth schild. The above, no doubt, was inserted in the French papers for stock-jobbing purposes. Great agitation prevails in the city respecting the final result of the .Middlesex Election.

OLDRIDGE'S BALM OF COLUMBIA.-The peculiar virtues of this preparation completely removes the difficulty experienced by Ladies in preserving their ringlets after exer cise ; its use so invigorates the hair, that tresses, previously the straightest and most destitute of curl, rapidly acquire a vigour which maintains in permanent ringlets the head-dress of the most persevering votary of the ball-room, the ride, or the pro menade. After the minerals and vegetables of the old world have been compounded in all imaginable ways in fruitless at tempts to discover so important a desideratum, we are indebted to the western hemisphere for furnishing the basis of Old ridge's Balm of Columbia, the efficacy of which in preserving, strengthening, and renewing the hair has become a matter of notoriety among all civilized nations. Its restorative virtues are indeed a proverb, and the most satisfactory attestations to its infallibility in reproducing hair upon persons otherwise hopelessly bald, may be examined at the Office of the Proprie tors, No. 1, Wellington-street, Strand, where the Balm is sold ; and by all respectable perfumers and medicine-venders. Price 3s. 6ci., (is., and 11s. per bottle ; no other prices are g enu i ne ....._ N. B.

A fig for our prospects, they're black as the night, Whatever Sir Bobby may say, An Incubus squats on our chest, and from spite Keeps grinning there day after day ; We arc spurned—we are starved—we go sighing about; Gaunt as Death, and grim-visaged as Sin, For the Whigs (Devil take them !) they will not go old , And the Tories they cannot come in. There's Dan of the " Gem" clapping on to his Tail Full a dozen fresh rattles or more, While Burdett, the Tub we threw out to the Whale, Will ere long lie a wreck on the shore ; Sir George the consistent, Sir Andrew the Saint, Where are they ? and echo cries " Where ?" Where's Twiss, Clerk, and Hardy ?—but hold, I faint— So a bumper to banish despair ! Another !—for 10, there's a shout in the street, That Joe's getting up on the poll, That Pownall's preparing to sound a retreat, And Wood looks as black as a coal. This fills my sad cup to o'erflowing, heigho ! Since we cannot turn off these Whig Tartars, Why, I'll e'en turn myself off (God help me!) and so Here goes for a swing in my garters! COURT CIRCULAR.

Geary Filmer Hodes The Duke of Devonshire is making a tour through the Isle of Wi g h t. O a Wednesday last he was at Cowes. The Marquis Conyngharn and Lord Hill had inter views with Viscount Melbourne yesterday in Downing-street. It is said the King of Hanover will perhaps give up his intended visit to Carlsbad, and pass the summer at Hanover. It is added, with some appearance of reason, that the Queen and the Crown Prince will pass next winter at Berlin, as the Prince needs the constant attendance of Dr- Graefe, who cannot he absent from Berlin for so long a time. —Journal de Frankfort, July 31. The Duchess Ida, of Saxe Weimar, accompanied by some of the Princes and Princesses of Saxe Weimar, ar rived at the Queen's Lodge in Bushy Park on Wednesdal afternoon from the Continent, on a visit to the Queen Dowager.

Yesterday morning, between sevca and eight o'clock , a large barge, laden with paving stones, in passing through the broad arch on the Middlesex side of Battersea Bridge, by some mismanagement of the steersman, came with her broad side athwart the piers, and received such damage that she le' stantly filled and went down. Two men on board of her war' rowly escaped with their lives, and a waterman named Hem" met, who pulled off to render assistance, fell overboard stou was drowned. _ _ Accounts from Utrecht, Bois le Duc, and other places, give the particulars of violent thunder storms on th e 28th and 29th ult. On the same day a singular ph en omeno n was observed at Flushing.
