trougham was in London, and that a letter had just been re ceived from T. T. Luccock and William Smith, Esqrs., the deputatioa despatched on Monday to London, stating that on their arrival they learnt that Mr. Brougham was at the scat of Ids father-in-law in Hampshire, that they were posting off their immediately, and should be in London again in such time as would probably allow of their reaching Leeds with Mr. Brougham on Thursday morning. This announcement was received with loud applause. What will he the result of the whole poll it is impossible to predict. Mr. Bower, and his friends of the Radical par'- who have cordially united with the Reformers, have :ot in general polled ; and at Bramley, where there are about fifty impelled electors, the Reformers are certain of 7J - 6, tyhile only 6 are certain to vote for Tories, the rem.-aming_ 8 remaining neutral. The Tories state that, b 7 a trick of their's at the registration, 2SO Liberals disfranchised ; the Re formers think this too an • est i mate, by upwards of a hundred. Should Mr. Br(;ugham arrive to-morrow morning, it is expected that he;nd Rir. Baines will immediately visit all the districts and r:,ut-townships. A great desire is exp resse d to see the Hon. r sfientleman in the midst of his friends. QUARTER. 7 NINE O ' CLOCK.-Mr. William Brougham has just arrive" and was received with the most tremendous cheer..inG. r ile Reformers are in high spirits. LIVERPOOL. WEDNESDAY EVENING.—The Liverpool election terminated this day, in.thc return of the old Members. We made a des perate struggle to return two Reform Members; but, owing to the extremely short tim e th at one o f them, Mr. Morris, was in the fi e ld, we have only succeeded to the half of our wishes, It was a gallant stand-up fight. The Tories here are frantic with rage against our independent Member, Mr. ;wart ; and, although they have moved heaven and earth to effect his over throw, their qearest object has been frustrated. I cannot con vey to you an idea of the various and unpnealleled acts of inti midation that have been used to deter the liberal part of the constituency from supporting both of the Reform candidates. There can '.re no sort of purity of election, either here 'or else where, we have the protection of the ballot. Of its ab solute necessity the proceedings of this day have convinced every independent elector of Liverpool. The town has, of course, been in a high state of excitement during the last two Clays, and_ the attendance at Mr. Ewart's meeting to-night was irikTelv,e, there being. not less than 15,000 persons present. EXETER. JAN. 7.—The election terminated this thernoon, in the re turn of Sir W. Follett and Mr. Divot The learned knight has the honour of reviving the ancient system of contesting an selection, which we had thought had died with the birth of the Reform Bill. Five thousand pounds, it is said, have been the juice of this instance of re-action. MA NCHESTER —NOMINATION. The nomination of candidates for this important and influen tial ocrough took place on Wednesday morning. The com batants are—the Right Hon. C. P. Thomson, and Mark Phillips, EN., (the late members) ; Benjamin Braidley, Esq., ra gentleman who has filled various principal offices in the bo rough ; and Sir Charles Wolseley, the gentleman who distin guished hhatelf some years ago by his violent Radical incli nations, card who was especially honoured by being made the choica rf the unrepresented of Birmingham as their " attorney." About half after eight o'clock, the committee of Sir Charles Volseley arrived at the hustings, followed shortly afterwards by 'la. * Phillip and his committee. Mr. Thomson and Mr. Braidley immediately succeeded, attended, of course, by their respective committees. Me, R. H. GItEIG proposed Mark Phillips, Esq. Mc. C. J. S. WALKER seconded the nomination. ,tor. B. HEYWOOD nominated the Right Hon. C. Poulett Thomson. Mr. .J. C. DYER seconded the nomination. Mr. GARDINER nominated Benjamin Braidley, Esq. Mr. HA - INES seconded the nomination. Mr. FIT.LDEN nominated Sir Charles Wolseley, as a fit and proper representative for the borough. Ma. CON Dr seconded the nomination. Maar. Pntoteas, Esq., presented himself to the meeting. He said that if the policy of the last Ministry disappointed the expectatioas of Reformers, they could not possibly expect that the principles advocated by the new Administration of Weßington and Peel would be more satisfactory. Sir R. reel had told them they must look to men ; and he would do so. Ile would look to the men with whom Sir Robert had just acsocietcd himself and, so looking, he did not hesitate to say, that he felt towards them the greatest possible dissatisfac tion and distrust.—(Hear.) Ile would urge upon the elec tors, by every consideration he could possibly advauce, to look with th 3 most searching and suspicious eye at the Ministry-- to remember what they had done before, and what was likely to be their future course. He would say to Reformers, as to soldiers, Stand to your arma, and by no means yield to the pro posed delusion. Let them remember Polignac when he took office under Charles X. He attempted to delude the peop7e of France with promises of desired changes, and yet they would remember how he too was. mixed up with the Orden nances of July. The Hon. Gentleman then adverted to the state of Ireland, and to the melancholy disaster at Rathcor nine ; .after which he proceeded to observe that he had never been . the servile follower of any Administration.---( Hear.) In his Parliamentary career, he had taken a perfectly inde pendent curse, and should continue so to do. .. The Right ;ion. C. Pouoavr Tnomare then presented himself to the electors, and said, " Gentlemen, we are told that rearenchment with us was but a dead letter ; but I appeal to any man I see there in the crowd as to the taxes he himself pays, whether the four years of the Reform Govern ment had not been of eminent service? I ask him whether, though we have not repealed the malt-tax, and though there are many obnoxious taxes yet remaining, whether he has not at least obtained relief from the economy, the retrenchment, and the unsparing reductions of the reforming Government. So much then for the Reform Ministry; my own personal conduct has been befOre you. On the one hand, in connection with the Gov.:ma - lent, I have been acting my part with them; on the other there have been occasions when I have found that personAl opinions could not conveniently or consistently be yte:ded, and when consequently I have been determined to soparate those opinions from the opinions of my colleagues, and to pursue my own course. I did so with regard to the repeal of the 'cotton tax ; I did so upon a question which. is far the most important that can be committed to Parliament—l mean the Corn Laws. I have heard it stated as a charge against me that, in the speech I delivered upon this subject, I declared that a repeal of the Corn Laws would not produce cheap bread. I said no such thing. I said it would not re duce the moneyprice of bread, but that it would give the people money to purchase bread.--(Cries of " Hear, hear.") I have heard it said, with great pleasure, by a party on my 'left, that the - people must distrust both Whigs and Tories, and that Radicals were the true Conservatives. I might perhaps differ upon that last point ; but of this I am sure, that a man cannot be less of a Conservative in the one than he is in the other of these extremes Land I am satisfied that those who advocate, as their present Tory party now in power must do—those who advocate the maintenance of all abuses-- who stand up for what are called our ancient institutions, and would not repair or renovate them--I say these men are the greatest Destructives of their age, and that to them the ruin of all that is valuable in our institutions might be attributed. The dissolution of Parliament, I contend, clearly proves the:, you are now appealed to return, if possible, a Tory majoa;ay. Away, then, with 11 eery o f " T ry ' em " —or " measurer, not men." Return to Parliament those whose principles mu ap prove of, a n d who are determined t o see power i n t:ne hands of those from whom the country may expect sorneAing. Mr. Thomson then alluded to the affair of Ratlnoormac, indig nantly repelling the charge, that it was in consequence of an order from Lord Melbourne's Government txiat that horrid outrage took place. Mr. BRAIDLEY next addressed the el e .ctors. He declined to pledge himself to vote for any spe;ific measure ; but de clared that though, if elected, he w°,nld not be made the tool of any party, or lend himself to tejv Minister, it was his in. tendon to give the present Mini'aters a candid hearing and a fair trial. Sir CHARLES WOLSELEY was the next speaker. He was a Radical Reformer : he e•. ar had been so ; he bad struggled and suffered—nay, he "s even now suffering for his opinions. He stated himself frie-.7:11y.. to separation of Church and State' the repeal of the m".:tt-tax, and the Poor Law Amendment Bill, a thcrough-%.oing reform of the Church, English and and Irish, and 'a very wide extension of the suffrage. The reture; t ng officer, E. BUCKLEY, Esti., then took a show of hx , v:As, which he declared to be in favour of Sir C. Wols?ley er.d Mr. Braidley. A poll was instantly demanded on bellaU of Mr. Phillips and Mr. Thomson. Mr. Buckley anncu - iced that it would open at the appointed places on the folio wing morning. OLDHAM. Within the last few days an active canvas had been carried on in favour of Captain Taylor, a gentleman of Conservative principles ; but the day preceding that appointed for the no minatic,n, he announced his intention to retire from the con test, so that, at the hour appointed, on Wednesday morning, Me:srs. Cobbett and Fielden, the only other candidates, were duly elected. Mr. COBBETT, in his address, eulogized the patriotism and firmness of his Majesty in having dismissed from his pre- Tence the last Administration, whom he characterized as a part of the most cruel and detestable faction, and as a crew of undermining and dishonest men. Mr. FIEL.DCN spoke in strong terms of the importance of the vote by ballot, short Parliaments, and universal suffrage. The meeting then quietly dispersed. OXFORD—NOMINATION: JAR. 7.---The nomination of the candidates took place this day. Mr. Alderman Wyatt proposed Mr. Hughes, and was seconded by D. Eaton ; Mr. W. Parker, who was seconded by Mr. Brocklcsby, proposed Mr. Stonor—but the moment Mr, Tawney and Mr. Parsons came forward to propose Mr. Maclean, there arose such a universal clamour against those gentlemen and their candidate, that not one word of their re marks could be heard. The candidates then proceeded to address the electors. A poll was then demanded for Maclean, which was fixed for the following day. The contest will be severe, as the Tories are using every exertion, and all sorts of undue influence. Nevertheless, Hughes and Stonor are con sidered safe. WIGAN.—NOMINATION. The nomination of candidates for the representation of this borough took place on Wednesday morning at ten o'clock, at the Moot Hall. James Lord, Esq., and the bailiffs, who are the returning officers Lnder the Reform Act, having taken their stations, Mr. Heron, manufacturer, proposed, and Mr. Hardman seconded, the nomination of Charles Standish, Egg., as a fit and proper person to represent the burgesses in Parlia ment. Mr. John Acton nominated, and Mr. Reece Brown seconded, the proposal of Richard Potter, Esq. Mr. Henry Gaskell, solicitor, nominated J. H. Kearsley, Esa., and the nomination was seconded by Mr. gekersley, no other candi date being proposed. CHARLES • STAND/S/, Esq., proceeded to address the electors. I-Ic said he was, in every sense of the word, a real and rational Reformer. T.I. POTTER, Esq., rt::;:d spoke. He based his claim to tips renewed supPel't of the electors an _ e ' sant during the last two sessions, and 1 every one of his constituents becorm 17 ltad entlblett acottititt a , 4 6 ,„ 0 ,, k ,. lating among them a digest of his J. 11, KRARSLEY, tulay declared his adhesion to the present Ministq. A she of hands was then taken, and declared to be in fa vour of Messrs. Potter and Kearsley. A poll was demanded on behalf of Mr. Standish, and the proceedings were Imme diately adjourned, with a view to the Immediate opening 'or the poll. The following was the result of the poll at four o'clock : Kearsley Potter Stienttith 126 • PENRYN AND FALMOUTH. Mr. Rolfe's return is beyond question, and there is As little doubt of Mr. Preshfield's election. The Bedehamber Lord will be floored, notwithstanding the Most unblushing bribery on the part of his agwits, of which the clearest proof can be adduced. If tim Tories bleed as freely in other places as they have in Penryn and Falmouth, they will in this crisis spend an immense sum, which the country no doubt will be called on to repay, with ample interest, if they obtain the power to hold office for the short space of three months. RIPON.—NOMINATION. JAN. 7.—The nomination for this borough, which, prior to 1832, had been a close borough in the hands of the Studley park family for 114 years, took place yesterday. Mr. Starelcy, the late Liberal Member who won at the last election by a bare majority over the Tory, was proposed by F. EARI.E, Esq., and seconded by R. LIME, Esq. General D'Albiac, of Bristol notoriety, was proposed by Mr. Alderman FANER, and seconded by QCINTIN RHODES, E3q. Mr. Pemberton was proposed by Major OXLET, and se conded by Mr. COLLINS. Mr. Crompton, one of the late Members, finding the in neence of Studley-house so strong as to endanger the return of both the Reform Candidates, should he stand, has nobly retired. The show of 4-. ands was in favour of Staveley and D'Albiac. Mr. Pemberton demanded a poll. Tl:e:e is a system of making cow-house votes here, which completely swamps the borough. Had we the ballot, Ripon would return two Reform Members triumphantly. SALISBURY. JAN. 7.—An election took place this day, when W. B. Brodie, Esq., was put in nomination by Mr. Alderman Spar shott, and seconded by Mr. Squarey ; and Wadhani Wynd ham, Esq., was proposed and seconded by Mr. Ambrose Hussey and Mr. T. 0. Steevens. There being no other candidato in the field, Messrs. Brodie and Wyndham were. declared duly elected. SALFORD.-1V OMINA TION. This election commenced on Wednesday morning, at the Town Hall of Salford, in front of which hustings had been erected. Mr. Thomas Potter nominated Joseph Brotl:erton, Esq., as a fit and proper person again to represent the borough in Parliament. Mr. John Smith seconded the nomination. Mr. Reeve then nominated John llugdale, Esq., and was seconded by Mr. Holland Hoole. Mr. Potter demanded a poll on behalf of Mr. Brotherton, which was granted, and the meeting adjourned, thanks having been previously voted to the Boroughreeve. WINCIIESTER.—NOMINA TION. THURSDAY.-The nomination of the candidates for the re presentation of this city took place this morning at St. John's House. After the usual formalities had been gone through, end the oaths administered, V. Earle, Esq., proposed, and R. Knight, Esq., seconded the nomination of Mr. Mildmay Dr. Crawford pronoseo, an d J. Theobald, Esq., seconded Mr. Baring ; and Dr. Williams, head-master of the College, proposed Mr. East, and Captain Neville, R.N., seconded the nomination. The show of hands was greatly in favour of the reform candidates. Mr. East demanded a poll, which will commence to-morrow. A very severe contest is anti cipated. WORCESTER. WEDNESDAY, JAN. 7.—Tory and corporation influence, and Tory gold in abundance, have obtained a partial victory here, in turning out one of the reform candidates—Colonel Davies. The grossest threats and intimidation, where nothing else could be successfully used, have been resorted to, to compel the poorer class of electors in Worcester to vote for the Tory candidate. ANGLESEY BOROUGHS. There is no doubt of the triumphant return of Captain Vrederick Paget. GENERAL ELECTION. Country Correspondence received this Morning. SANDWICH, JAN, 8. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. election closed to-day, when the Mayor officially de clared the state of the poll as follows :—Price, 551 ; Trowbridge, 403 ; Owen, 339. So that. our town once more boasts of Sir Thomas Trowbridge as one of its representatives. His return, under the circumstances, is a most gratifyeng triumph for the friends of Reform and good government. It has been gained under the very guns of the Great Duke's castle, in spite of the influence which necessarily belongs to the office of Lord Warden, as well as that which the Duke has been assiduously cultivating during his visits to Waliner ; in spite of the threats which have been held out, and hi many instances practically enforced by his dependents, the ex pectant Tories ; and last, not least, in spite of the determined coali tion between the Duke's own nominee (Mr. Price), and the no minee of the Goverment (Sir Edward Owen, Clerk of the Ord nance), who have been supported by all the influence of Government and doubtless by a Government purse. Over all these obstacles have Sir Thomas and his friends triumphed ; and that their prin ciples are firmly supported by the independent part of the consti tuency, the 217 plumpers polled for Sir Thomas amply testify. His conduct is beyond all praise. He has come forward manfully at a most important crisis, and unequivocally declared himself in favour of Liberal policy. But because he happens to be in opposition to his Majesty's Government, it has pleased the Tories, for want of a better hold, to charge him with disloyalty. This accusation the very name of Trowbridge refutes. A more gallant or devoted ser vant of his Majesty doss not exist. He opposes the prescilt Minis ters, simply because he conscientiously believes that they cannot govern the oDuntry with honour to themselw...•.:„ advantage to the people, or satisfaction to their Sovere,gn. In this feeling Sir Thomas's constituents cordially I r:tie, and they are justly proud of the Gallant Member who so Faithfully represents them.—Yours ' &c., AN OBSERVER. CAMBRIDGE, JAN. 8. CLOSE OF THE POLL. At four o'clock this afternoon, the time of closing the poll, there was a great muster of the friends of Mr. Spring Rice, 111 r. Pryme, and Mr. Knight ; the latter gentleman being within a few of Mr. Pryme for the last two hours, it was thought that he might gain a point, particularly as the glorious uncertainty of the bribery system had nearly turned the scale in favour of th e Tories at various times throughout the day. An immen se i n t eres t was manifested by the crowd in front of the hustings, particularly when a board was car ried about in triumph, bearing th e s t a t e o f th e p o ll upon it. The statement (but not official, of course, until to-morrow rnorr when the Mayor will announce it) was as f o ll ows : .., Rice Pryme 694 Knight 685 The Mayor came form:et amidst the tumult, b u t it was a ll d um b show, when he :renounced that the meeting was adjourned to eleven the next Morning. The friends of Mr. Rice and Mr. Pryme then proceeded with their music and banners, when both gentlemen were loudly cheered at the window of Mr. Bridges, stationer, on the Market Hill. Mr. RICE appeared and asked for three eLeers, now that they had won the victory. The most deafening acclamations then rent the air. Mr. Rice congratulated the electors on the victory which would be hailed with delight by the people in general of England. —( Loud cheers.) They had not only the interest of the Corpora tion against them —not only, as Shakspcare says, " a double headed monster" against them, but two double headed monsters. Not only the influence of the corporation, but the interest of the gaol against them—(Laughter) —and it was a fact that men had been brought in custody from the gaol to vote for the Tories.--( Groans and hisses.) There had also been much pecuniary interest against them ; he knew it had been exercised, and Hilo could only bring it home to the parties, then he trusted the gaol would have an in crease of influence by having more voters in it.—(Laughter and cheers.) The Tories little knew, when they tried to influence the electors of Cambridge—they little knew the men with whom they bad to deal.—(Cheers.) But he knew them, and now that they had three times given him their votes, he hoped they had nothing to reproach himself or his colleague for, since the first time that they were brought forward.—(Cries of" No.") He had always endea voured to bespeak their attention to the liberty which had been given to them by the Reform Bill, and not exagge:ated beyond its merits. They had exercised their privileges, and achieved such a victory as had won renown which would be handed to posterity. He only wished that in the exercise of their privilege they had cho sen a better man than himself.—(Cries of " We are satisfied.") But lie could not help, whilst alluding to their kindness, to mention the friendship and exertions of his committee. He believed that the compositors of the Cambridge Chronicle were at this time rummaging over the paragraphs which had been already prepared ; —( Laughter. )—the terms would doubtless be, " The Radicals are defeated—the Tories are returned—and all England may sleep in peace."—( Continued laughter and cheers.) How those paragraphs would now be reversed he could scarcely imagine ; but in no place would they have occasion to reverse them more than in Cambridge. Knowing the influence that had caused such exertions as had been made by their opponents, the town of Cambridge had reason to re joice ; the monarch had appealed to them for their answer in refe rence to his decision on the conduct of the late ministers, and he (Mr. Rice) thanked them most cordially for the answer they had made to that appeal.--(Loud cheers.) He regretted the lateness of the hour and the inclemency of the weather induced him to con clude his address, and after three more hearty cheers he retired from the window. Mr. PacYasE next came forward amidst loud cheers. Once more their fellow -townsman stood before them, having been twice the object of their ehoice.—(Cheers. ) They had gained a victory, and it was astonishing, on looking at the influence used against them, that they had g a i ne d i t. Mr. Pryme then alluded to the corrupt practices which the Tories had resorted to in order to de stroy the freedom of the election ; and whilst expressing his grati fication at the result of this election, he mentioned, in the happiest terms, the result of the election of the city of London. That re sult would be hailed with rejoicings all over E ng l an d, but would not be more gra tifyin g than the election for Cambridge, which had , FRIDAY, JANUARY 9, 1835 long been famous in the annals of electioneering. 'lie then men tioned the immense interest of .the Univenitythe power- of the Heads of Colleges—and also that of tiie Corporation ; and if Cam bridge had returned two Reformers, with all this influence against them, what effect must their example have upon the places where no such difficulties existed ? He had stated in his first neiritcd address to them the principles he espoused : th;..; asid ,, .-- - ' bitter offer-- ' --..k - ' t ,... :, :---- .-- :au given i.o the ' t° 1115 P IP 9. -"' eut • - l never fl - intlictrfreni explaininq hi! dpuht: - 1•0 4 1 ;° ---- -- - e ••••':.)" ta. 1 ' .37- ' Lamb ' had 4 1 1CW11 by . ..ets.•,-.o,neers.. -.:.•Let.urs o f t,itiA .1(1aL ~. , c' • the reS.'l4 'f.lf Ibis election, their approval of the opinions he enter snc-e--...-Jal7 t ' )l6:4 - t3 , rich i - 4'itfl itl , :elif talned : by those principles he had formerly gained their fsvQttr, and they- had proved that th e y wou ld st ill ma i n t a i n them.

(EXTRACT OF A LETTER.) I send you the first day's poll—the whole number of voters is 1300-1355 are polled. Not more than 300 can be brought up to morrow under the most exciting circumstances, because the re movals, &e. make up the total—therefore we consider this the greatest victory, gained in Ott?, eatge nett it, inaknitch as Mr. Dawsen is the Sw'etare to the Admiralty, and brother-in-law to the Prime Minister. We have, - if not a majority, at least an ap proximation to it, of men em;loyed under the Crown. Every inducement to promotion —every allurement of ease, re tirement, and pension, have been promised —every threat has been held out of pensions and employment being taken stay by Mr. Dawson and his friends—yet we have the glorious majority as stated of individuals who prefer undergoing every deprivation but that of principle. DEVONPORT, JAN. 7. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,--Thinking•you might be glad to have the earliest infor mation of the progress of the Reformers in this place, I have thought it right to state to you that our nomination took place here yes terday, when, after a very long meeting, the Returning Officer de clared the majorities to be in favour of Sir Edward Codrington and Sir George Grey (our two late Reforming Members), and, of course, a poll was demanded on behalf of the Tory candidate, the Right Hon. G. R. Dawson, the Secretary to the new Admiralty. In fact., I never witnessed such an immense and unanimous meeting in this borough before, were and I do not believe th a t 200 h an d s up for the latter candidate. The polling commenced this clay, and the close of our labours is as follows :-- Codrington 931 Grey - 792 Dawson .... 634 To-morrow we shall to a certainty return the Reforming candidates, and turn out the Tory one. Mr. Dawson, I are sure, will never show his face again as a candidate for this new and determined Re form borough: and I would also state that every possible influence en the part of Government has been used for votes in favrur of Dawson. He has addressed the men in the dock-yard, soliciting votes, promising what he would do for them by way of promotion, &c., in case they promoted his interest ; and threats, to intimidate those that. refused, have been basely reso r t e d to—that they would be marked men, &e. &c. By these means he has got a few, but I am happy to say that by far the great majority of them have, not withstanding the above, -stood forward nobly in favour of reform. In all departments of the Government these steps have been re sorted to. Mr. Damon has also, while he has been here, hoisted the Admiralty flag, at his hotel. The object is manifest. I am, Sir, &c. P. B. CARMA.RTIIEN, JAN. 7. The polling for the united boroughs of Carmarthen and Llanelly commenced here yesterday and closed to-day. Toryism has, I am sorry to say, triumphed, b u t by di s h onoura bl e and disgracefulprac flees. It. is said that 101. and even 20/. have been given for votes by the Tory candidate's hirelings. The Reform candidate, the lion. W. H. Yelvcrton, had a majority in Carmarthen; but the Tory candidate, Mr. Lewis, had a majority of 44 in Llanclly. Not withstanding we have been defeated, there is no re-action here • had we the vote by b a ll o t, we s h ou ld ha ve a large majority, both here and at Llanelly. Gross majority for Mr. Lewis Majority for Mr. Yelvcrton for Carmarthen borough 8 P. S. Mr. Lewis lives near Llanelly, and had the interest of the copper manufacturers there. This circumstance accounts for the large majority he had at the above place. Had the Reformers at ter:led properly to the registration in time, the Tory candidate would in all probability have been ousted. BRISTOL-JAN. 8. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. S. t,—Do not let your readers be surprised at the result of the Bristol Election. Nothing otherwise can be expected with close Corporations and Select Vestries, which have enormous funds at their diiposal. Bribery to an infamous extent have been carried on with the freemen. Perjury, also, committed to an enormous extent in 1)01- l'ng off the names of those persons on the registers, who are either dead, or left Bristol. To sum up the whole, a club, containing 1,500 poor operative freemen, has been long formed, who are re gularly supplied with funds, by subscriptions from the rich Tories, and all this for electioneering purposes. The Act against Bribery, as far as regards Bristol, is a dead let ter. Mr. Baillie, this time, is beaten by the very weapons ( the freemen) that elected him against Mr. Prot heroe. This city will lose a valuable member in Mr. Baillie, and his loss is severely regretted by all parties. A BRISTOLIAN. BRISTOL, JAN. 8. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. " Victrix Cause, Diis placuit ; sed victa Catoni." SIR,—We are subdued. Two Tory Candidates, Sir Richard Vyvyan and Mr. Miles are returned for Bristol. But look at the state of circumstances. Beef has bribrd the conquerors. He re , a gentleman above wilful exaggeration Mr. Visger, stated ye s t er d ay, that from the numerous instance s which had come to his knowledge, put 500 Liberal votes had been lost. B u t h ow ? Wh y th e T ory tax-, gathering thieves did not collect f or th e taxes on which- the vot es depend, till after the 20th July. A n d i t i s f oun d , he ob.serv:- .

What higher opinion can be held „1: . your freedom from you than is held of ti . ieves and pickpockets? In "Lay also rank those employers who which degree of estimation we workmen, and tyrannically bid them control the freedom of . " stand and their birthright as Englishmen—their free opi. "ion = ll _ "vote for the legislators of their country. Baillie is thus ousted. There are in Bristol some noble_ minded Reformers. For them I regret the result. But for a great number of half-and-half reformers I rejoice that Baillie is ousted. Let me ask them who brought in Vyvyan at the last election? It was the supporters of Baillie, who to the extent of above 500 voted for Vyvyan, when they might have turned the scale in favour. k* or Williams. Now they are repaid ! Baillie a 'Whig, brought in Vyvyan a Tory, and turned out Protheroe a Reformer and now Vyvyan turns out Baillie ! The half-and-half reformers of Bristol deserve it! and they will continue to deserve it, till interest, if not principle, leads them to a wiser course and a more manly. It has struck me, Sir, that these observations might not be useless at the present moment, of the general results of the present election in favour of Reform. Wherever the voice of the peo p l e can be heard unbiassed, I entertain no fears. Not even am I oft with regard to Bristol. Good will spring out of Eh:: present evil. Of the victorious party I will not my any thing more severe after defeat than I did while victory was duhio ,, ;. We will bear that defeat in good humour, and " bid - ""o I a , - -- - our time. -or air, your obedient servant, CATO. GREAT YARMOuTH, JAN. 8. (EXTRACT OF A LETTrtai Our election h as j us t ceased in the melt dr Messrs. Anson and Rumbold, the Liberal eitildidates,_and in the return of M essrs. Praed and B ar ing, t Wo thorough Tories, and the former of them, the Setiretary of the Board of Control. Messrs. A. and R. had represented the town for nearly seventeen years, and had for that long space of time supported every liberal and enlightened Lteasure. fhe feeling of the town was never more strongly in their favour than during the last election and the previous canvass, and their defeat has been caused by gold alone. Bribery of the most shameless and unblushing description has been pursued _be yond all belief. The Tories determined Upsii tafitiii# their objtict at any cost, and by means of illoiny gtld rilOst beastly drunkenness alone, have they secured their object. It is a consolation that Messrs, Pmed and Baring cannot retain their scats. They trusted their gold to some of their, supporters, wh o s h owe d m a c h more tea l than discreti on .

WINCHESTER, JAN. 8. The nomination of the candidates for the representation of this city took place this morning at St. John's House. J. V. EARLE, Esq., (one of the oldest and staunchest reformers in the town) proposed Mr. Mildmay, which nomination was se conded by Robert Knight, Esq. A. - CRAWFORD, Mil, proposed Mr. W. B. Daring, and James Theobald, Esq., seconded hire. Alderman LITTLEIIA LEN proposed Mr. Boller East, whose no mination was teeonded by Captain Neville, R.N. Mr. Mttnuav said his conduct had been before the electors eighteen years, during which time he deOett dtly pion .to point out a single instance in which he had given a vote hostile to the liber ties of the country. With respect to the present Administration, he had opposed them when out of office, nor did he think it likely he should support them now, merely because they filled the treasury benches. At the same time, he would vote for all measures which he thought good, not caring the source from which they might emanate, and oppose all such as he should judge evil. But he be lieved at the same time, that it was onlya May fly Administration. Mr. BARING said that he was resolved to support those princi ples which first recommended him to the confidence of the electors, and which for the two ears he represented them, he had never swerved from. The Honourable Gentleman then referred to his printed address to the electors, in which he declared him self au advocate for removing the disabilities affecting the Dis senters, and a general registration of births, deaths, and marriages, the commutation of tithes, such reforms in the Corporations as would give to the inhabitants of cities and towns the power of electing their' own magistrates, and such reforms in the Church as as would diminish pluralities and limit non-residence, which, he stated, were less rather than more of those measures which i.t Par liament he would support; and should he, on any of time sub jects, chan ge hi s opin i on, he would act the honest and . manly part of resigning his seat. Mr. EAST declared he was convinced that the British eonstitu lion was not perfect, and he was willing to remove all ircognized abuses. He was friendly to relieving the Dissenters, but Its would not give his support to any measure that would impair the( stability of o'o,l Boat,.lit'lltll Clittrehi denio.l that he was a nominee— (Cries of " You are, of the Duke of IludEingliatri ('`)---tind if sent to Parliament, act indcnendently upon all s ubj ec ts up on which he m i g ht L e ca ll e d to decide. 1T ,, 0n a sh .. nf 1- , 111 a.L. l !' there appeared a vast majority for the ".T. 1 7171 cand.d...T N i‘lessrs. 3...Vildmay and Baring.

AN LLECTOR OF NORWICH. BATH, JAN. /: TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin—Here have the Tories been overthrown, and here have the Reformers proved themselves a quiet and determined body—quiet in effecting their ot4eot, and determined in attaining it ; and here has another we;ght been thratVii to aVerliattince that kale *hid' has already been declared wanting ; and of course the people of Bath are revolutionists, church destroyers, ignorant of their own inte rests, and running blindfold to certain ruin. But these and such like phrases arc now too old to startle, tbel common to terrify, as experience has proved that they Mean, not what they tto Ely, but what they do not say. Now suppose, for instance, that the body of a roan is ill, and his blood become corrupted and impure, does he console himself by sitting clown and exclaiming upon the original wonder and perfection of his frame, or does he not rather call in a physician, who, by salutary (and not poisonous) medioines, restores Isis functions to their former and intended purposes? 1-Ic does not suffer his admiration of the patient's frame, as it originally was, to blind his judgment as to what it now is, nor does he permit it to stop his renovating hand. Neither do the Reformers suffer their admiration of our wonderful constitution, in its original state of purity, to blind their eyes to its glaring defects--defects not of, but grown on, the system ; and because they would remedy these de fects, what ;, , ,re they called—or rather what are they not called ? A dictionary of their names would be no bad way of expelling an hour of ennui. And again : The body of a man is afflicted with some excrescence, grown on to (not originating with) some part of his body, by which his right functions are impeded ; and when he has this excrescence removed by the hands of some skilful surgeon, and is thus restored to his pristine activity, is he called a fool, or a de stroyer of his body, for removing that which was an hindrance to - it ? Certainly not. Neither are they the faols or destroyers, who, admiring our pure and holy religion, would rid it of those pests which are making our Church a by e - wor d, an d w hi ch the Con servatives (so called) are so anxious to retain. What, lot us ask, are the thoughts and aims of every honest Reformer ? His thoughts are,—honour for his King—love for his Religion —and respect for his (justly styled) unrivalled Constitution; and his aims, so to purify and reform his religion, and to amend and invigorate his Constitution, as to obtain for the whole of them—namely, King, Church, and Constitution—that respect and veneration which . nought but purity can obtain.—l remain, Sir, With the highest respect for your principles, A LOVER OF TRUTH, AD A SUBSCRIRER TO THE SUN. P. S.—The energy and spirit shown by The Sun, in all cases where the cause of the people is the object, have entitled it to the esteem of every true Reformer--and rely upon it, Sir, it has ob tained it.

Pursuant to precept, &c., the Mayor; Percy Scott, and other Members of the Boroughmongers, assembled at the Town Hall, Newport, for the purpose of electing two fit and proper candidates, &e. The following were proposed : Two old Reforme rs I Hawkins. Ord. Sir W. Gordon (Horse-Guards.) Hamilton. On a show of hands being in favour of the old Members, the two latter demanded a poll. An immense concourse had assembled near th Tnirn-liall bears ing the Tory colours (purple tintl fed) among which were a par t y of bullies fro m Co wes , who had been hired for the occasion by the Tory party, consisting of shipwrights from two yards, and who car ried several 'colours headed by their masters, and preceded by a would-be band.

The Reform party, who had for two hours bore all this with very good feeling, when the watehiVoM resounded in their ears, " Awake, crier, &C.," and they retaliated ; the greatest confusion now prevailed for a while, and in a short time the varnlin were cleared. Gordonites were seen running in all directions, the colours torn to ribands, hats lost, and carrying no other colours with them than what were marked or rather impressed on their ogles and features; a tooth was picked up afterwards in the High street with every appeAt'itnoe of having been dislodged. 7.—belling —Pelling com mence d at nine &clock, and the candidates kept close upon each other throughout the day, with every appear, envy of a hard struggle.

LATEST STATE OF THE POLL. —JA N . 8.- Sir Willoughby Gordon is Two astern of the Liberals, and, we apprehend, cat! find no rnbrC, DUBLIN. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) On New Yeerfe Day Sergeant Perrin, who had received an ineitation, signed by a neteetoes bedy of voters, to stand for Cashel, entered that ancient city; amid the greetings and acclamations of an immense mtiltitude. He proceeded to the house of Mr. O'Brien, where- a platform had been erected, and addressed the people at cofteitlefable len#til. After genie few prefatory observations he said : His Majesty has been pleased to dismiss a Ministry to whom we owe much. He has, in the exercise of his prerogative, selected a not MiniStry: He has selected new Ministers, every one of them epiettectl i eiiiee the temmencement of their public lives, to every principle of Reform ; and to every teensure of benefit to the country.—( Hear, hear.) How did the present Prime Minister acquire his notoriety and flit importance? Ry his persevering and obstinate resistance to Catholic Emancipation. —( Hear, ehd groans. ) For what place was he first elected? For Cashel ! And by *bele? By the eficeitoei of those who no solicit your votes in op position to mc.—( Groans.) With all his itigenuity, and with all his talent, he yielded that measure, not to conviction, but to ine vitable necessity. Did he not resist the great measure of Reform —actively, steetilleilely, sett consistently resist it? Did he not resist it to the last? What reason lieVe yen, then, to expect a change in the evil system from him ? What reasen to believe that he is not firm to his original principles? D o you expect anything liberal from the men joined with him in the Adminstration? His published declaration contains but two distinct and definite proposi tions, The first is that he will not apostatise ! The Prime Mi nester of England has such confidence in his °lmpolitical character, that he finds it necessary to pledge himself not to be an apostate. But from what is it that he will not apostatise? From those prim-. ciples by which he was always actuated—those principles which influenced hit conduct hefore, when he opposed the • Catholic Emancipation—and, latterly, when he resisted Reform. If the Government is committed to such a man, he will find it his bounden duty to mar the effect of Reform.L(Loud cheers, and cries of " He will, if he dare.") The second proposition which Sir Robert Pcel puts forward, is that there shall be no reduction of the enormous, inordinate, and dispropor tioned revenues of the Church Establishment which weighs down this land.—(Hear, hear.) These are the principles he de claros—are they the principles which you adopt?—(Loud cries of " No, no.") Having referred to a report of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners on a solitary branch of Church revenue, to show the immoderate amount of the whole, the Learned Sergeant pro ceeded to remark on that unconstitutional and tyrannical measure the Coercion Act, and added—" Have the present Ministers a right to taunt the house with that ? Did any one support it more vio lently, more perseveringly, with more asperity, than Sir R. Peel Himself ? There were some other measures beside that act passed by the Whigs of which I did disapprove ; but those measures were strongly urged by the present Ministers. That Parliament, how ever, Aid some good. It is dissolved ; for the present Ministers knew they could not get it to go with them. It was not a fit tool to work with. That Parliament gave Grand and Petty Jury Bills, im perfect indeed, but still useful. That Parliament withdrew su pport from the Kildare-street nest of Orangemen and bigot r y. That Parliament gave freedom to the negro, and opened the trade to China; and in every one of those measures of public benefit was it opposed by the present Mitiiitry.---( Cheers.) Th a t P ar li a ment abolished Church Rates—that Parliament, by the Church Tempo ralities' Bill, took the first step to reduce the excessive revenues of the Church—that Parliament reduced ten Bishoprics —that Parlia ment gave us the Bill by which you can vote---(Loud cheers)-- and in every step it was opposed by the Tories.—( Hear, hear.) What then can we expect from the present Ministry ?—(Cries of " Nothing but oppression and tyranny.") Gentleman, that Par liament, above alt it did, took the first plain explicit step to the real extinction of tithes; and it would have gone further. The last Act of the House of Commons relative to tithes was that of 1834 that Act was, to a certain extent, imperfect. It was, how ever, greatly improved by my friend D. O'Connell.—(Continued cheering.) It was hailed generally by the country. But what prevented the passing of that Bill? By whom was it stopped?— By the Duke of Wellington and Lord Roden. It was a boon to Ire nrevented its being passed ? The Tories.—( Hear, land. - Your votes to any one who will support hear.) Will 'you grvo , --er.") If that Bill had passed, the Tories?—(Cries of " Never, '-eeedy, the bloody we §lteitid,,not hate to deplore the disastrous -...- evil of RatheorirlJ; ff tlift Pill had passed, hos; many in now in their graves would, on this gidriders flay, thank that God who has ushered it in, for permitting them to see the New Year. How many orphans, now vainly looking for a father's care, Would receive the paternal kiss. How many widows, bowed in affliction, wottld on this day - be basking in the sunshine of their husband's affections. ( A great sensatic;ft among the multitude.) Ido not impute mali cious intentions to those who apposed that Bill--but if it had not been opposed—if it had not been for the Tories, who did oppose it, We should no longer have such lamentable seenei to deplere.— (CrieS of " Bad luck to them," responded to be hearty ejaettlatiosns of " Amen !") Read the declaration of the Prime Minister, and consider his.acts. Did he not oppose reform in the tithe system, which the late Ministry were pledged to give by the Bill to which I hate ellude;1? And surely it was not to give a better Bill that he advised the Pariiiiiient to lee dismissed. No, Gentlemen, -he knew that that Parliament could not he converted into tools with which to work his designs. The present Ministry dared not work with that House of Commons, and they ask you to send a tool with which they can work..-•--(Cheers.) If you want a man to work for the real ktittellon of tithes, for actual reform in every branch of the State, to carry out the principlee of the great measure of the Re- • brm Bill, would you choose a man Who has. been all his life a Tory, and who will give his steadfast support to a Ministry avowedly op posed to Reform." Having reminded his hearers of the state of the close borough of Cashel before the Reform Bill, and alluded in strait; teems to the necessity of municipal reform, in order to enable the inhabitante to reesive the benefit of their own property, consisting of 2,000 acres of land, now usurped by individuals in the neighbourhood, the learned Sergeant concluded amid the loud and hearty cheering of the whole assembled multitude. In his. canvass he has been mos t success f u l, a great majority of the electOrS !teeing promised him their support. The election will take place early next week. DO BRIGHTON, JAN. 7.
