LINCOLN, Noy. 28.—The contest still pro ceeds with unabated ardour on both sides. The result of yes. terday's poll, which gave the Purples (Sir Wm. Ingilby's) such an advantage in numbers, has not at all damped the zeal of their , opponents, the .11lucs. They still talk with the utmost confidence of success. The result of this days poll was looked to with great anxiety on both sides: being fair-day, and also market-day, an immense concourse of voters was expected from all quarters of the country ;, they did arrive in considerable numbers, notwithstanding the very unfavourable state of the weather, which was wet throughout the day. Some new im pulse (we have not yet learned from what quarter) seems to have been given to the Thorold party since yesterday ; their proCeedings to-day were very numerous; their display of flags and banners much more showy than heretofore. It is said that a number of highly respectable freeholders, who hitherto ab stained from taking any part in the proceedings, have now de- Aired themselves for. Sir John Thorold. If that be .the case, it must be visible by the state of the 'poll : in the pext two or three days. The scenes which presented themselves to day in every part of the city, but particularly in the neighbourhood of the Castle, have not been exceeded in bustle, activity, and interest, by any thing witnessed for many years in Lincoln. All is life and gaiety, and the interest of the respective parties is kept continually excited by some real or rumoured fresh incident in the proceedings. The departure of Mr. Wells, who had hitherto " been so indefatigable in the Thorold cause, produced, as might be expected, no slight sensation, when it became ge nerally known this morning. Various causes were assigned as having produced this unexpected event. We believe the Infor mation which we communicated yesterday on this head, will be found nearest the truth. Whatever has been the cause, the fact itself has been the subject of much conversation here. To the Ingilby party, it has been a source of much amusement during the day : they have treated it with great mock solem nity. Mr. IVells they affected to look upon as dead, and a mock funeral procession was got up to honour his memory. It was headed by three mutes dressed in deep mourning, each bearing a pole with a black silk flag wrapped round it. Next came a drummer, who beat slow time on a muffled drum.— Then followed a chief mourner, dressed In a long black funeral cloak, with crape hat-band and black gloves. He seemed so lost in affliction that lie was obliged to be supported by a stout fellow at one side, who occasionally stopped the procession to allow him time to refresh himself, for which purpose he fre quently plied him with large potations of some cordial out of a large bottle. The rest of the procession consisted of sonic two or three dozen of freeholders (wearing Sir William Ingilby's favours), who walked arm and arm in pairs. The person who supported the chief mourner bore in his hand a large placard, surrounded by a broad mourning border. The following is a copy : " LINCOLNSIIME EU:MON.—It is with the deepest sorrow that the friends of Sir John Thorold announce the de. parture of their great stay and hope, the lamented Mr. Wells; but it will be consolatory to them to know, that it is expected he will send 'his managing clerk to succeed him in heading the county of Lincoln, and in making diurnal speeches in the same order of precedency which it was thought right to concede to the worthy attorney himself. " N. B. It is not true that Mr. Wells was in the pay of the opposite party. The rejection of the half buck sent him by Si r John Thorold seems to have given occasion to this groundless rep_ort." This procession went through several of the streets,.and was, sometimes received with applause, and sometimes w ith hi sses, ' according as it was encountered by groups of its own or the op. , posite party. Mr. Wells's departute was also noticed in the following official communication from the Thorold Commit tee :—. " Freeholders—Your cause will .ultimately triumph ! Lord Yarborough and Sir William Ingilby united, cannot control public feeling ! All that money and influence can effect has as yet produced the small majority of 336 votes ! Perse vere, then, in this most virtuails eauSe.4 for slth9ogli Sir John Thorold's Committee have lost the able, the honest, the disin. terested assistance of 111 r. Wells, they feel the most complete conviction that the result will Secure the present and future in. dependence of this great county. " Freeholders—Continue your generous and unwearied ex ertions ; and rest assured that the poll cannot, and shall tux, be stopped on our part, so long as a freeholder is left to come to the poll. " W. A. JOHNSON, Chairman, " Committee-room, Nov. 20." Whatever assistance Mr. Wells may have been to the Com. mittee, (and we are told he was most active,) his loss has by no means damped their spirit. They came to the poll in the morning with the greatest confidence, and notwithstanding the increase of the majority against them on the day's poll, r e ti re d in the evening still seemingly certain of ultimate success. The numbers polled today for both parties were considerably greater than on either of the preceding days, and would have been still room had the weather been favourable. At the close at four o'clock, the numbers were— On the Day's Poll, For Sirlliam Tn gilby - 719 For Sir John Thorold - 387 MAjority .. . _432 Gross Poll. For Sir William Ingilby . 1,570 For Sir John Thorold • - 904 Najority . - - -666 The declaration of thinunibers was received with loud cheers, by both sides, each still confident of success. fly the Ingilby party it is now considered past all doubt, and indeed unless the Thorold party should muster in great force by Wednesday next (for which day, it is said, they have a large body of voters re served), their chance will be but very slight. After the state of the poll was declared— Sir Wm. hintLe/ . came forward, and said—" Gentlemen Freeholders,--I am not yet able to say more than briefly to thank you for the very distinguished support I have received at your hands, which has placed me in such a proud situation on the day's poll. I now wish to address a word to the Honoura ble Baronet (Sir Robert Heron.) I assure him that I sincerely condole with him in the great loss he has sustained since yester. day. Sincerely do I condole with the Hon. Members for Pe terborough and Boston (Sir Robert Heron and Colonel John son) on the decease (in this cause) of their worthy friend Mr. Wells.—(Ch eers and hisses.)--I trust, however, that that worthy Gentleman has not left us altogether, hut that in pursuance of his repeated promises he will meet us here again on Monday next. Gentlemen, again I sincerely thank you.—[The Hon. Baronet is still suffering under the effects of a cold so much that his voice can scarcely be heard a few yards from the hustings.] Mr. AL I.lx next presented himself to the meeting, and stated that he came forward for the purpose of putting some few questions to the Hon. Gentlemen near him (Mr. Dealt!) , and the Rev. Sir Charles Anderson), respecting s hand-bill which he then held in his hand, which had been circulated by Sir Wm. Ingilhy's committee, . and signed by. Sir Charles Ander son. In this hand-bill it was distinctly stated, that Sir John Thorold, in answer to the application of the gentlemen who were deputed to wait on him, had expressed himself displeased with the intention of some parties to put him in nomination, as being altogether against his will. 'To this hand-bill Sir Charles. Anderson had signed his name. Now, he wished to ask that Reverend Baronet, whether he was one of those who waited on Sir J. Thorold on that occasion; and whether he' heard that stated to which he had signed his name ?—(Cheers.) Sir C. ANDEssoic — r did not.--(llSsses and applause.) Mr. ALLix.—l wish to ask, Have the gentlemen deputed to wait on Sir John Thorold any written document from Sir John Thorold, authorizing them,to publish what is contained in this hand-bill ? Mr. DEALTRY.—Brother freeholders, I stated W you on former occasion, that we had no written authority from bir John Thorold to make the statement contained in the hand-bill, hut most certainly we did understand the statement there contained to be in substance the declaration made to us by Sir John Thorold, respecting the intended nomination.—( Here the Hon. Gentleman was interrupted tbr some time by the loud distil). p ro b a tion on the part of several in the meeting.)—After a !muse he Continued am speaking to an assembly of Englishmen, and I trust I shall have a patient hearing., If you refuse to hear me, you will drive me to require that the gentlemen here shall put their questions in writing, in which way I shall be also pre. pared to answer them. Mr. Ai.r.ix here repeated his question. I ask if the gentle men deputed to Sir John Thomld have any written document from Sir John to authorize the publication of , the hand-bill ? DEALTRY.—.I answer—certainly but as certainly d o 1 ssy, that when the handbill was drawn up, I myself sent a copy of it to Sir John Thorold, and if it contained any thing which was incorrect, as relating to what passed between us, I should have thought that, in common names& and acting upon the general principles in dealing between man and man, he would have corrected the error, and made the correction in the face of the public. He had not done so; and I now must say that (of which I never had a doubt) the statement contained in the hand-hill should be looked upon as authentic. Mr. A now beg to ask the gentlemon of the deputa tion, Were they ever verbally authorised by Air John Thorold to publish the partial extract from the conversation with hint which they have published ? Mr. DEaurnr.—l could not declare on my oath to the exact words which passed between us; but I could declare on my oath, and I would not state it if I could. not declare it on oath, that the contents of the hand-bill were the fair and honest in ference which we drew from the nature of the conversation, and ' that the sentiments attributed to Sir John Thorold were faith. fully detailed.' thought so #t the time r parted from Sir John Thorold, inttl think sO Mr. A Lti wish to ask thegen tie c r the deputation whether, they..putSir John Tltorold,ran id so far, as; to telt him the use they intended to make of Is answers ? Did they in form him they intended to publish his conversation with them ? Mr. DEALT did not. 'We considered such a pro ceeding wholly unnecessary, for Sir John Thorold must have been aware of the object for which the questions were put to him. Mr. A max.—A re the gentlemen sure that they gays the correct sense as well as the words of those extracts ftom the conversation which they have thought fit to publish ? Mr. DEALT stated on Tuesday last r from the hustings, that the substance of the conv e rs a tion wills Sir John' Thorold was accurately given in the hand-NIL-0)4 there was not, and could not exist a disposition on the part of the deputation to misrepresent any thing that occured. But if there was mis. representation, why did not Sir John Thorold, in print, and to the world, declare what the misrepresentation was ?—( Cheers and some disapprobation.) Mr. Aida x again complained of the deputation in having, without any authority, written or verbal, published extracts of a conversation, and also that the Rev. Baronet (Sir C. Ander. son) should, have put his name to the hand bill, without having any-personal knowledge of the truth or falsehood of its con tents. Ile had intended to offer some further observations on such conduct, but the answers which the Meeting had heard to his questions were sufficient to explain, without any comment of his, the nature of the whole transaction. If this were done as an election trick, he could not find any word in the English language sufficiently strong to express his detestation of it. But he could not bring himself to believe the misrepresentation to have been intentional. He knew the gentleman concerned to be It ighly honourable. They, however. w ere m istaken , and greatly mistaken in what passed between them and Sir J. Thorold on that occasion. The mistake had already been productive of great mischief in the county. But for it an immense body of free holders, who had remained away, would have attended on the day of nomination, It was from a strung feeling of those cir ctunstances that he h a d p ut t h e quest i ons to the lion. Gentle man, and he now called upen them to explain themselves to the county.-4 Cheers.) Mr. DEALTItV said he regretted that any circumstance should have occurred in this contest to oblige hint to come so frequently before the freeholders. However, they were Eng lishmen, and would, he Was satisfied, give a patient hearing to every man, while explaining a charge made against him.— It was true he did go to Sir John rhombi, as one of the depu tation, the object of which was to hicertain the Hon. Baronet's sentiments with respect to the intended nomination. He wished to know whether the proposal was with his own consent, in order to prevent an nnnecessary contest in the county. It was im possible that the Hon. Baronet should not have been aware of' the object for which the interview was Jiought-that lie could be ignorant that his answer would be published. Under these circumstances, he put it to the meetin g , as men o f pl a i n sense , whether they ;lid not think that when r. copy, of that hand.bill Was sent to Sir John Thorold's rertideteserse t;ystietteelteswenld riot, if he found it contained any iiiiefeptisentittietw havaelm. mediately detected it, and published the detection to the world P When lie did not take any step of the kind. must not the in ference of the meeting be, that the substance of the hand-bill was what he (Mr. Dealtry) now declared it to be—strictly cor rect. lie would now tell them what hie feelings would have been on such an occasion. If he had promised his vote to any man, there was no power on earth cou ld have induced him to counteract by his silence or otherwise the effect of the promise. The time was not yet too far gone by for Sir J. Thorold to con tradict any thing wrongg, which the hand-bill contained ; and if he did not, the freeholdera would then judge who were the men who were entitled to their confidence. They were now, as it had been remarked by the H on . B aronet (Si r WW. Ingilby), fighting with a body'without a head. In giving . their stipport to this body, the freeholders were throwing their votes to the wind..—(Hisses and applause.).-eln calling upon them to sup port Sir W. Ingilhy, besolicited their votes for a man whom°. fesited himself ready and willing to serve them—a man, the excellence of whose private life inetified the fullest confidence that in the discharge of, his public duty he would be upright and faithful. As It was then getting late, (it was at this time nearly dark, and was quite so before the parties quitted the hustings), he would not trespass farther on their attention.— Another opportunity would offer for addressing them more at length. The Rev. Sir C. A moraisox said, that as his name had been alluded to, he would make one (and for the present only one) remark. If any misrepresentation of Sir John Thorold was contained in the hand-bill, he (Sir .lohn Thorold) had had sufficient time to correct it. He Intl nut done so; and the natural inference was, tot its etatemente were correct. Colonel SIBTIIIOIII , II here begged to correct a misrepre sentation which had gone abroad respecting him. It hail been stated that he had canvassed for Sir John Thorold. Ile now declared that he had not canvassed for either party. Colonel Jowesosr said, that as the hour was late, and as it rained, be would not detain the freeholders more than a mi. nute. It hail been said that they (the Ingilby party) were fighting against a body without a head. He could tell them that it would yet take a great many heady to beat them.— (Cheers.)—The majority on that day's poll was no criterion of the feeling of the •county as being against Sir J. Thorold's cause. On the contrary, he thought it was .the highest honour a man could receive, that on the third (lay of the contest he should have received nearly 1000 votes, without any solicitation whatsoever. The contest here was of no ordinary kind. It was a novel one in England, and he trusted the example which the freeholders of Lincoln would set on this occasion would teach freemen, to set a proper value on their freedom. The Hon. Baronet (Sir Win. Ingilby) had expressed his regret that Mr. Wells had left the contest. Ile (Colonel Johnson) could assure him, that he had more occasion to rejoice than be sorry for Mr. Well'. absence; for through the course of that day's work he had deeply felt the loss of his great talents. This he felt it necessary to say in defence of ;hat gentleman, that no feelings could be more honourable to a man than those which had induced him (Mr. Wells) to withdraw himself from any further interference in the election e and before the close of the contest, he would make that fact apparent to every free holder in the county. There was, lie understood, a most re spectable gentleman on the hustings, who had written to Sir John Thorold, asking him a most material question. It was, whether, if elected, he would support the abolition of slavery ? His answer was, that if the county conferred upon him the high honour of electing him their representative, he would vote for the abolition, and in every other respect endeavour to discharge his duty to the county.--(Cheers.)—The inference, then, which they must draw from this declaration, must be the reverse of that which was sought w be drawn from the hand- Sir Rollitlir HERON bill.—(Cheers.) said h e wawiet not no* dwell on the • , , impropriety of Sir William Tngilbys committee in publishingthe hand-bill. Th at h a d been sufficiently remarked upon al. from Sir John Th oro ld, ready. lie wo u ld on ly o bserve, that lie held in h an d & l etter • w hich at present he was not at liberty , to read at length but in that letter Sir John exp resse d hi s sur• prise and astonishment that sing part of the conversat i on b e . tween hint and the, gent l e men of the committe e s h ou ldhave been publi s h e d , and declaring that such publication was wholly without his knowledge or consent; if it were asked why Sir John Thorold did not come forward and state those facts, he answered, that he did not wish, under all the circumstances of the case, to appear on t h e hustings. lie stated thi s to the de. putation. As t o t h e questionwhich had been so o ft en asked— whether Sir John Thorold would serve if elected, Sir John had distinctly stated th a t lie would; and he (Sir K. H eron) now repeated the fact in the most positive manner. Colonel Josistsosz begged to saY one word as to the premise which Sir John Thorold bed matte to vote for Sir 'WWiitin N. Ingilby. The promjse was made to Lord Yarborough, and not to Sir William Ingilby. Sir We Lt.tAst Irrott.lw here said, that be felt called upon, in vindication of his own honour, to state, that Sir J. Theretd's proMise to vote for him was made, not to or through Lord War borough, but distinctly to hint (Sir %William Ingilhy) himself. Ile would produce the letter to-merrow.—Wheers.) The Rev. Sir C. ANDEDSON said, the words of the letter were, " I shall be happy to give you my vote." If he were wrong in this, the letter when produced would correct him.— (Cheers.) Colonel Jointsow said, that he would admit .that he de served to fall under the displeasure of the meeting if be had asserted any thing which he could not prove. lie was satisfied that he had not stated what could not he proved. C; ANDERSON observed, that it was an allusion to that letter of Sir John Thereid, that be had stated on a former day, that Sir William Ingilby had not only the sanction of the ma jority of the freeholders, but the support of Si r John Thomld himself. The meeting now adjourned. FOCI ItT II DA Y. •lnrccnew, Saturday night„.Nov. 29. The result of this day's poll has, we think, put the issue of the contest past all doubt. At an early hour the friends of Sir Wm. Ingilby began to pour into the town in hundreds, while of the opposite party there was only an odd straggler arriving at distant intervals. Still, however, the Blues keep up their spirits, and talk with seeming confidence of ultimate success. They rely upon the great number of freeholders yet unpolled, of whom they say there are about 12000. If this be true, there is of course a means of reducing the present majority ; but from all we can learn here, the numbers of unpolled voters in the interest of Sir Wm. Ingilby are quite sufficient to keep him at the head of the poll. One thing seems certain, that the supporters of Sir John Thorold will keep the poll open as long as they can get a freeholder to bring to it. How long this may be, is yet quite uncertain.. The leaders of each party still con tinue to conduct their proceeding with the utmost good temper towards their opponents. On this good feeling one towards another, they do not, however, seem to think th a t e l ect i on squibs, however severe, are any violation. They therefore con tinue at each side to send them forth daily. There was one came out this morning, in which the sacred writings of the Evangelist are brought to bear upon one of the candidates; This use (or abuse) of the Scriptures arose out of the numbers of Sir Wm. Ingilby's majority on yesterday's poll—they were 666. It was observed by a gentleman on the hustings at the time, that that was the exact number of beasts' in the Reve lations of St. John. The hint was taken, and in the course of this morning the following hand-bill was circulated by the friends of the Thorold party. " MAJORITY FOR SIR WILLIAM INGILDY-SIX HUNDRED TUREESCORE AND SIX. Revelations, chap. xiii., and from the Ist, 2d, 3d, 4th, s t h, 9th, 13th, 14th, 16th, 17th, and 18th verses : " 1. And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up. " 2. ------ and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and his authority. " 3. And all the world wondered after the beast. " 4. and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast ? who is able to make war with him ? "6. And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things— " 9. If any man have an ear, let hint hear. 66 13. " 14. And *cavern them that dwell on the earth. " 16. And he caused) all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in' their right hand or in their foreheads. " 17. And that no man might buy or tell save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. " 18. Here is wisdom. Let him that bath understanding count the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number six hundred, threescore and six. " Here ended' the chapter." A-propos of the numbers. It was remarked as a curious co incidence, that Sir William closed yesterday with a majority bl" Glib. At tsee o'clock, the state ot the poll up to that hour was published, Sir Win. Ingifbretriajorhyted then - risen to 999, making a majority on the day's poll of 333. The friends of Sir NVrn. Ingilby were not backward in also resorting to the press for the purpose of giving their opponents a little annoy. once. In the course of the day they published a long article, addressed "To Sir Robert Heron and Co." The length of the article prevents our giving more than an outline of Its contents. it was heeded, " donsum ,roturee, 'omit Hesperus, lie ea.. hence." It then began " After all the pranks and cap e rs y ou ave cut upon the Lincoln stage, it is high time, in humble imitation of the black goat of Huntingdon ' that you should re tire from scenes and actions which would ti—n any cause and d—n tiny actors." The placard then goes on to attack the con duct of the 'party in the interest of Sir John Thorold, accusing them of making hint a puppet for their own purposes, and con cludes thus :—.."The object you have in view, Gentlemen, is but too obvious, viz, to put to an enormous expellee an honest, manly, and open-hearted Baronet, the only extensible candidate for the honour he now solicits. Such improper conduct will, I trust, have the effect of rousing not only the strenuous exer tions of true end independent Whigs, but also of every ho nes t Tory—of which latter description I - profess myself to be." The placard was without signature. The pail was continued open today till half past four o'clock for the accommodation of several freeholders whit had no other business in town but to give their votes. At four o'clock a considerable number of persons assembled in front of the hustings, and called loudly for the closing of the poll Sir Wit. INOILBY soon after made his appearance in front, accompanied by several of his friends. From this time to the declaration of the poll, a considerable delay occurred, during which some of the crowd endeavoured to amuse each other at Hon. Baronet's expence by every kind of coarse joke. Sir William took their humour in very good part; talked to some, and retorted upon others whose remarks he could hear. There was one fellow, who,more than all his surrounding comp a ni ons , distinguished himself by his perseverence in attacking " the Yorkiddreman," as he culled Sir William. Upon this fellow Sir William fixed his attention ; and after retorting upon him some of his own slang, at length pressed him very hard far a song, to amuse his associates till the arrival of the Sheriff: The hesitation of the fellow to answer this appeal to his " powers of pleasing," complet e ly turned the laugh of the cr o wd aga i nst him and Sir William was troubled with him no more for the evening. It was nearly quite dark when the state of the poll was an. nounced. The numbers were— On the Day's Poll. For Sir William Ingllby - For Sir John Thorold . Majority - Gross Poll. For Sir William Ingilby - 2,118 For Sir John Tliorold 901 Majority . —1,187 The. state of the poll was received with the usual loud cheer lug by Sir Win. Ingliby*si friends, and with some disapproba. tion by the opposite party. As noon as silence was re s to re d, Sir Wat. IN OILAY addressed the freeholders, 'and expressed his warm thanks for the very distinguished situation which they had placed him on the poll. It had been threatened at the commencenient of the contest, that the hundreds of the op. polite party would soon be swelled to thousands.—(A voice in the crowd And so it will be done yet.") Sir William con. tinued—Would it ? He would tell them, it would not, and could not be done ; for when the great body of the freeholders of Lincolnshire were called together, they knew well how to discharge their ditty, and not suffer themselves to be carried away by noise or clamour.--(Applause and hisses.)—lf the hundreds were to betsiised by thousands, the freeholders would have an opportunity of witnessing the fact. They had 'talked of shewing the white feather. He would assure them that they should never see it at his side. lie again thanked them for their distinguished support.—(Applause.) ColonelJotiNSoi4 next came forward, and was received with miugled.shouts of applause and blues. lie began by assuring the Hon. Baronet that he had' never held out any threat con nected with this contest. He acted on this occasion openly and fairly in the discharge of what he considered to be his duty, He had proposed Sir John Thorold in, order to give every free holder au opportunity of exercising his right of voting in that way which lie Might' consider most consistent with his con. scieritions feelinla-411cre the Honourable Gentleman was in. terrupted by the clamour' of one party and the shouts of the other—to restore order. When it was restored, he con tinucci]-4it would now entreat of them all to follow the of the llonourable Baronet (Sir William Ingilby), and keep their temper.— , (Cheers.)—For his own part, he never did quarrel with any man for his political opinions, - - 640 - - - -471 PRICE SEVENPZNer• however different they m i g h t b e from his own, and so he ho would continue to act.—(Applause.)—ln the part which he took on the present occasion he d4elaimed any connexion with any party, and he could ,assure. the meeting that up to the very moment when he proposed Sir John Thorold on Tuesday, his friends were in doubt who should second He stated to the freeholders on that day, that the cause-wan in , their -hands, and by the nature of their support it must *4A; or fall. The poll mull not now be closed until there were D more freeholders willing to come forward. They had still opportunity of so doing : all he could clot a would. wadi stand by to the last to see fair play.. Ile might recall the word„ ; for he believed in his heart there wits no necessity for any third party to trouble himself on that head, for there could not be a more honourable and impartial man than. their worthy High Sheriff. He had attended in the room where he presided, to decide any objections that might arise to votes in the course of the proceedings, and no man could conduct himself with mote justice and impartiality than he had done throughout. -.(Apo plause.)—He again reconthi ended to the freeholders not to allo their ditierenees of opinion.On thin occasion to destroy that pace and good understanding which had hitherto subsisted between them. Lathe friends of Sir John Thorold still exert themselves, and bring their friends tothepoll..Thoe,were still nnpolledionto than sufficient to beat down the present majority, whichhe would admit was very considerable. But let them recollect, that not one fourth of the freeholders had yet polled. If the flon..lta: roues (Sir Win. Ingilby) could see the letters which he (Colonel Johnson) bud received from verious parts of the county, pre: musing support in the present contest, he would be surprised. The cause was in their own hand, and let them decide it. This, however, he would say—that if the majority on this day week should be twice as great as at present, he gave them his word. that it would not ruffle ii single feeling of his heart.—(Cheers.) Colonel SIIITHOUPE next came forward end said,ll that the feelings due from man to man obliged him to declare it most desirable, that a contest such as the present should be brought to a close as soon us possible. As to himself he was quite neu , ter on this occasion, but he left his tenants to be canvassed by either party. The election was then declared adjourned to .'Monday morn, ing at nine o'clock.

STANTON. r". ATTO N.kx A R DEN. -- OD Saturday morning, Mrs. Stanton was brought to the office, for as WAS generally thought, final examination. It however proved otherwise, a. its result was her being remanded back again to the Naw Prison. On this occasion Mr. Stanton did not attend. The era.,, *inflation was conducted in the public office, from which, how.. ever, all reporters were excluded, The only witness examined was Mr. D'Arcy Bolton" the house-surgeon of fit. Itilrauga mew's Hospital, who simply gave evide nce to t h e fact of a patient having been introduced to their care on the 12th 'cif October ultimo, whose condition was as before described. The, wound was dressed, and.the man put to bed. In his opinion the wound was of a nature not likely to prove fatal with tom— mon surgical assistance. This witness was bound over in a recognizance of 404 to give evidence on the trial. Owing, we presume, to the indignities oKred to the prisoner on the last examination, she on this occasion came up in is coach, witicls was kept waiting till the close of the investigation, when sbe again returned to the prison by the haw conveyance,.
