W. \ eilt worth Fitzwilliam made his public debut, as a candidate for the representation of the West Riding of Yorkshire, in the area of the Coloured Cloth Hall, this afternoon. An immense number of electors and others assembled to see and hear the Honourable Gentleman, against whom a pretty strong prejudice had been raised by the pro ceedings of the Normanton and Wakefield delegates in their recent meetings. The numbers present must have amounted to nearly 15,000, and the meeting was one of ' the most exciting election scenes that have for many years been witnessed in this locality. During the whole of the proceedings great turmoil prevailed, and on some occasions it amounted to a degree of rudeness against the Honourable candidate. Mr. JAMES BROWN introduced Mr. Fitzwilliam, mak ing no apology for so doing, as ho conceived the name of Fitzwilliam was in itself a sufficient apology.—(Dis approbation.) :air, BARON—I wish to ask if Mr. Fitzwilliam will stand here to answer any questions which may be put to him? Mr. CHARLES WENTWORTH FITZWILLIAM here pre sented himself, and was rec.:ived with cheers from his friends, and by groans, laughter, and hisses, anti cries of ” take him home" horn his opponents. After some delay, caused by the interruption, he said : —I have been asked to give a pledge to stand here to ask any ques tions—(Cries of " No, no, to answer them.") Well, to answer them. I give you that pledge—(Hear, hear) — and I trust to have a patient hearing. Gentlemen, I have been introduced to you in the kindest manner by my friends. I think it necessary to ask of you that kind indulgence which every new candidate receives from your hands, and which I, from my youth and inexperi ence—(Laughter and cries of " Hear, hear," and " Go back, lad ")—I—I—I find my—myself placed in an ex ceedingly difficult position—(Renewed cries of " Hear, hear.") Your late Representative was a man of such extraordinary talents, and a man so justly popular amongst all his constituents, that it will be difficult for me to tread in his steps, though I hope I may have that power.—(A pause). Ido not intend to give you a set speech--(Great laughter)—but I will endea vour, to the best of my ability, to touch on the lead ing topics of interest at the present day. With regard to free trade, I give it my most cordial support; and although the results from it have not been so beneficial as at first thought, that has been owing to many and great disadvantages. The present unsettled state of the continent prevents some of our best customers from trading with us to that extent they otherwise would do. Famine in Ireland, too, has been another cause of this —(Laughter, and "Put your hat on.") The failure of the cotton trade is another cause.—(More laughter.) As to the endowment of the Church by the State, I wish to ' go to Parliament totally unpledged—because it has ever been considered in Parliament, and it would not be fit fir me to give any opinion on a question which has never been fully considered. —(Cry of" Don't you know your own mind upon it? Newman does; he can tell you.") If I did make up my mind I would not give a pledge.— (Cries of "Nobody asked you.") What I have said I meant to apply more exclusively to Ireland, which calls for some extraordinary remedy. When we find two de• nominations of religion receiving support from the State —(lnterruption)—would it—(A pause and laughter.) Two, I believe—the Presbyterian and Protestant Church (Cries of " Take it from them both.") Some means might be devised of rendering the state of Ireland better by paying the Roman Catholic clergy. Ido not wish to tax England with it; but some means might be devised to put that unhappy country in a more prosperous state. —(Renewed interruption, and cries of "Break up the Protestant establishment.") With regard to organic changes, I am not, I confess, prepared to give them my support. When we turn our attention to the Continent, and see how distracted those countries have been— (Pause—" The suffrage")—l de not think it advisable to make any great and extensive changes.—(More inter ruption.) Some years ago great reforms were brought about, and I certainly think.—(A pause and laughter.) I should not wish to prevent those who are able to use the privilege of the suffrage from receiving it. Ido not think it needful at present to bring about any violent or organic change.—(Cries of " Speak up.") Here the Hon. Gentleman made another long pause. He then proceeded :—There is also the question of economic reform, to which I should like to make some allusion. I think in the present state of the country great and ex tensive retrenchments is necessary in the public expen diture.—(Hear.) In what way this is to be done it is impossible for me to say—(Laughter)—but certainly, if due consideration is given to it, I thick it will be found that great retrenchments may be made.—(Cries of" The Army and Navy.") It would not perhaps be expedient to reduce the army and navy in the present state of the continent of Europe.--(Laughter and contusion, and cries of " Such as you want to be officers in them.") I have never tried yet.—(Applause.) I think it appears exceed ingly probable that on the election of the President of the French Republic there will be a great outbreak in the whole of Europe; therefore it would not be expedient to reduce those great safeguards of the empire, the army and navy.—(Laughter,) We must have our trade pro tected, and we cannot have that without ships of war. I think it would be heartrending to the traders of Leeds to find all their goods taken by pirates, and they not ar rive at the place of their destination.—(Laughter and a pause.) I must again ask you to give me your indul gence, as my youth and inexperi ence are great l y i n need of it—(Hear, - hear, and shouts of laughter) —and when I address such an intelligent constituency as that of the West Riding, I do not ask that favour in vain. —(A pause.) Gentlemen, Ido not wish to detain you any longer, but am prepared to answer any question.— (Laughter.) Mr. Cann= (ex-mayor of Leeds) then came for ward. He did not wish to wound the feeling,' of Mr. Fitzwilliam, but the truth required to be told, and ho was determined to tell the truth now.—(Hear, hear.) lie then went inte the circumstances under which Mr. Fitz william now appeared before them. He admitted the right of the agricultural party to have the nomination of one representative and the manufacturing interest that of another; but in addition to that the Normanton meeting also recognised the right of pledging whatever candidate might appear to the four principles, of retrenchment in the public expenditure, a gradual and safe extension of the suffrage, free trade, and opposition to all further endowment of religion by the State. Even Mr. Fitzwilliam's own brother, Lord Milton, admitted the right to urge these pledges. But what had been the result? Why, Mr. Fitzwilliam, instead of alluding is any way whatever to the Normanton meeting, had set both the delegates and the principles upon which he was called forward as a candidate at defiance.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. Fltzwilliam's conduct might be considered what in Yorkshire was called " pluck," but in this case it was not pluck, but defiance. In conclusion, Mr. Carbutt put several questions to Mr. Fitzwilliam. The first was as to the differential duties in favour of the colonies. Was ho prepared to abolish them? Mr. FITZWILLIAM—I am not prepared to abolish all the differential duties. Mr. CARBUTT—Are you inclined to maintain the differential duties in favour of colonial sugar? Mr. FITZWILLIAM—I am not prepared to do away with them altogether. Mr. CARBUTT—What will you do as to the navigation laws?

PIRACY. (From the Gazette of last night.) ADMIRALTY, Nov. 20. Dispatches have been received at this office from Com mander James J. M'Cleverty, of her Majesty's steam sloop Polyphemus, addressed to the Secretary of the Ad miralty, of which the following are copies or extracts:— (Copy.) Her Majesty's Steam-sloop Polyphemus, Gibraltar, Nov. 9, 1848. Sir,—Deeming it of importance that my Lords of the Admiralty should be made acquainted, with as little delay as possible, of the proceedings of her Majesty's sloop under my command, on the Bth inst., I have the honour to enclose duplicates of my communications to the commander-in-chief, and to request that you will be pleased to lay the same before their Lordships. I have, &c., (Signed) JAMES J. M. CLEVERTT, H. G. Ward, Esq., Admiralty. Commander. (Copy-) Her Maj e sty's Steam -sloop Polyphemus, at Gibraltar, Nov. 9, 1848. Sir,—l have th e honour to inform you that on the 7th instant I received a communication from Mr. Glasgow, merchant, of this place, enclosing a letter from Mr. J. Forster, late master of the brig Three Sisters, of Liver pool, copies of which I herewith inclose. We started the same evening to the Rif coast, and at daybreak ran into Al Khoyamich Bay, and coasted from thence close to the shore, towards Cape Tres Forces, for the purpose of discovering the brig, it' they should have taken her to the westward. At eleven a.m. of the Bth, on opening the point of Calla Tramontana, we discovered her anchored close to the shore, in a small bay, partly surrounded by an am phitheatre of precipices, high rocks, and ravines, all of which places were crowded with men, armed with long muskets, evidently for the purpose of protecting the brig, which lay considerably within musket shot range. Their boats, seven in number, were hauled up on the beach and in the mouths of caverns, with a strong party of armed men lying under cover for the protection of part of the cargo, which they had landed. Their whole force appeared to consist of at least 500 men. On ap proaching close to the brig they opened a fire of mus ketry from all points, which we immediately returned with grape, cannister, and musketry, doubtless with very good effect, as a very large number of them began flying about in all directions, and taking up more seoure posi tions. Having dislodged them from the beach we pro ceeded to take the vessel in tow, which service was per formed by Lieutenant Gardner, who volunteered to take the cutter, with a hawser, and weigh the brig's anchor. Just at this time a fire was opened from a gun, supposed to be a six or nine-pounder, and as, unavoidably, our stern was towards the nearest point of low rocks, and, therefore, could make no return, it encouraged them to approach us quite close, and open a well-directed fire of musketry, which, I regret to say, severely wounded Lieu tenant Wasey and slightly two seamen on board the ship, and one seaman severely in the cutter. It was my, intention to have landed and burnt the boats, but from the secure position taken up by so nume rous a body of well-armed men, I deemed it very impru dent to risk so severe a loss as must inevitably have taken place, particularly as the fire from our great guns had rendered them unserviceable. Having now taken the brig in tow we steamed to sea. From the scattered position taken up by the pirates, it would be impossible fur me to estimate their loss; but from the accuracy of our fire, and many men having been observed to fall, and some carried away, as we steamed out of the bay, there is little doubt but it must have been very severe. In performing this service, it would be invidious in me to point out any individual, where every one behaved so well; but I cannot omit to bring to your notice the zeal displayed by Mr. Gardner, first lieutenant, who vo lunieered to board the brig under so severe a fire, and who has at all times shown the same anxiety to assist in forwarding the service; also the able support I received from Lieut. Wasey, in command of the foremost gun, and the coolness and skill displayed by Mr. Taylor, the master, in conducting the ship in so intricate a place. I beg to return my thanks to Mr. F. Gilbert, pay. master and purser, who volunteered to take command a the small arm men.

More exalted than mere passion, it soars high above every other impulse of nature. and is not only stron ger than avarice, but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from its influence, or can avoid its sway; and business, pleasure, philo sophy, and divinity Itself become neglected under the enthralling power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly poison in tke heart, which now darkens, as it before bright ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life time spent In the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind? It is the effect of conscience. The Lover. by enervation of early habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be beyond measure deplorable 1 Loving and beloved, he entails the most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and ipon himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the attention of all. Those desirous of investigating it will find the fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work entitled S ELF - PRESERVATION, illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology, and diseases of the reproductive organs ; with practical observa ions en the secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from Solitary habits, excesses, or infection.

This treatise is the result of a long course of study in a peculiar and muck neglected branch of medical practice, and the author having ob tained the highest medical honours, is a guarantee for his profes sional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treat ment of these diseases. REVIEW 07 THE WEEK. La'Mert on the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity.—" There are scenes in the drama of lifo which are acted with ne spectator but Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf into which such scenes must plunge him ! In the book before as such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally, upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By un taught innocence the hook is not, of course, needed ; but wherever laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing in these pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine." —United Kingdom Magazine.

Gentlemen,—lt is with extreme regret that I have to announce the capture of the brig Three Sisters, by the Aloorish pirates, off Cape Tres Forces, on the 2d inst. When I left Gibraltar on the 31st of October, I car ried a fair wind until midnight ; it then fell very light, attended with calm s , u n til e i g ht o'clock the following morning, when a light breeze sprung up from the east ward. I then stood to the south-east, and finding that I was under the influence of a strong southerly current, I stood to the northward at six P.M. On the Ist it fell calm, which continued. At ten A.M. on the 2d, I observed several boats pulling off from the shore, which caused my crew to be greatly alarmed ; however, I waited until I could make out that they were nothing else than pirates, each boat pulling from 12 to 14 oars, with an additional lot standing in midships, with their long muskets, all ready for action; they also had large guns on their gun wales; after witnessing all the formidable weapons, I thought it was high time to look for the preservation of our own lives, accordingly I ordered the small boat to be got out, in order to keep without the reach of their guns, but, to my astonishment, no sooner had we put off from the ship than a volley of shot came tumbling about the boat, but fortunately they all fell a few yards short; and, I am confident, had I remained five minutes longer, there would be no person to tell the tale. However, we saw six of them abreast of the ship, keeping up their firing at the ship at a distance, leaving one to chase the boat, but fortunately he gave up the chase in about ten minutes; he then returned to his companions, and as sisted them in towing the vessel within their own domi nions. We then mado the best of our way across to wards the Spanish coast, and, thanks to Providence, we were picked up by the brig Dawn, at midnight, other wise the boat must have been swamped before morning, owing to her being so deep with all the ship's company and sundries. I beg you will transmit this information to the autho rities, and probably they will look after the vessel. I remain, &e., JAMES H. FORSTER, Master. (Signed) MONET MARKET.—The premium on gold at Paris is 19 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 3L 17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex change of 25.63; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being '25.50, it follows that gold is 0.51 per cent. dearer is Paris than in London. By the last advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 437 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.11; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13.111, it follows that gold is 0.17 per cent. dearer in London than in llamburgh. The course of exchange at New York on London is 108! per cent., and the par of ex change between England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.83 per cent. against England; but the quoted exchange at New York being for bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be deducted from the above difference. [ADVERTISRMENT.]--Flolloway's Pills a Superior Remedy for Affections of the Chest and Diseases of the Lungs.—Bridges M'Bride a respectable young woman residing at Carrigart, Ireland, was afflicted with a severe affection of the chest from which cause her breathing and articulation had become so extremely difficult, that the general opinion even of medical men was, that the Lungs were diseased: failing to obtain relief from other sources, she commenced taking Holloway's Pills, and so rapid has been her recovery by the use of this invaluable medicine, that it appears quite miraculous. These Pills are eqally efficacious in curing old coughs, recent colds, asthmus, sore throats and all pulmonic disorders. Sold by all druggists, and at Professor Holloway's establishment, 244, Strand, London. ATTEMPTED MURDER NEAR BRIDGEND.—A. most cowardly and ruffianly attempt was made on Saturday night week, by two men, named Daniel Davies and Tho mas Richards, on the person of Mr. Evan Gibbon, farmer, of Langan. The parties had met at a public house at Troes, and Mr. Gibbon was returning home, when he was shot at on the road, and severely wounded in the head and shoulder by large shot. The above named men are in custody, and stand committed for trial at the ensuing assizes. The shot is stated to have been fired by Daniel Davies, who is stated to have conceived an illicit affection for the prosecutor's spouse, who is by many years his junior. Mr. Gibbon was able to give his evidence on Saturday before the magistrates at Bridgend. , ; —Monmouthshire Merlin. Mr. FITZWILLIA3I—No.—(Loud disapprobation.) Mr. Ricusensort wished to know whether he was pre pared to divide the Church property of Ireland between the Protestants and Catholics of Ireland, according to numbers? Mr. FrrzwieerAm replied, that the question had never been discussed, and urged th ere f ore t h at it was impossi nsi d a oi p un p rg r a o 7b b i e a ( t c o oa n ut d ) . ble forer RICHARDSON c m s rin t Ao o ßt gptihsvoeeNamsubmitted p n rte s h w st e to r tt . —ll th e( e .Dh l o t i adpidpMalatuse.) As a test of the opinion of the meeting, he called upon those who thought him fit to represent the Riding to hold up their hands. Only one hand appeared in his favour. Mr. llteHA,lntzpwsoiriiiatmhe,nwchaellnednefoarrlysevsehroyw hoafnhdaN;n.dr.ss against Mr. I held up, amidst great applause. Mr. RICHARDSON then put it to the honourable candi date wheth er h e wou l d persevere in his canvas withsucha decided opinion against him. Mr. FITZWILLIAM—I shall keep my ground.—(Disap probation.) Mr. EDWARD BAINES then addressed the meeting. He spoke in high terms of the Fitzwilliam family, but, deeply painful as it was, ho felt bound by an allegiance far above personal respect—his allegiance to principle— to say that he must on this occasion most decidedly op pose the return of Mr. Fitzwilliam.—(Loud applause.) Mr. PURDON here came forward, to announce that Mr. Roebuck, the late Member for Bath, was in the meeting, but the announcement was but imperfectly heard. Mr. Baoox, however, made the announcement of Mr. Roebuck's presence at the meeting, and stated it was the intention of the Normanton meeting tomorrow to bring h i m ou t. (The statement elicited great applause, and a general call was made for Mr. Roebuck to present Mr. FAIRBAIRN then introdsced Mr. Roebuck. Mr. ROEBUCK was then very warmly received. He said he obeyed their call, but not having been formally invited to become a candidate, he must be considered as addressing them merely as a private individual. He then went on to express some of his opinions, giving not only the electors but the honourable candidate (Mr. Fitzwilliam) some advice. If there was one thing more than another they ought to preserve themselves from, it was the charge of such a constituency being controlled by an individual will. What they wanted was experience, political virtue, and character in a candid a te, which should comm an d success. He did not say thathe (Mr. Roebuck) possessed these qualities. The truth Eight give paiu to an ingenious mind, which, he believed, Mr. Fitzwilliam possessed; but ho must say that Lord Fitz william's son, out of Parliament—(Hear, bear)—did ndr possess them.—(Loud applause.) So large a constitu ency as the West Riding, he „contended, ought byalL means in their power to resist the spirit of intimidation attempted now to be practised upon them.—(Renewed cheers.) He then analysed the way in which Mr. Fitz william answered the questions put to him, and en deavoured to show that the answers were characterised by neither candour nor knowledge; and he was con vinced that had the lion. Gentleman been named Brown, Smith, or Jenkins, he would never have been thought o for ,the West Riding.—(Laughter.)
