MINA continues at Pampeluna, confined to his apartments by ill health. The war is carried on by his Generals, but no decisive advantage has yet been gained. ARDOUIN, the new Spanish Loan contractor, has left Madrid, and is on his way to London. We are anxious to know what reception he will meet with, on his first appearance on 'Change. We are much mistaken if England has not had an abundance of Spanish bonds, and a surfeit of such security as Spain give; when she plights the national good faith of he al ustrious,councillors—the Cortex. iord STANLEY has published an address to th e Electors of the Northern Division of Lanc:,shire, with which the Morning Post is not ai all satisfied. Our contemporary cannot unrlerstand why Lord STANLEY should "refuse io join an Administration with the avowed principles of which he so entirely concurs." The reason, we think, is sufficiently obvious. Lord STANLEY has no faith in the avowal of ~the principles, for he says expressly " I declined to join that (the Administration) which is now formed, becaus e I had no public grounds for confidence that they would boldly and' strenuously act upon those principles of Reform which I believe to be essential to the national welfare." Now this language is 113 plain as it is important to the Tories. The public have not so soon forgotten with what Pertibacity it was asserted by certain journals, and by our contemporary among the rest, that Lord STANLEY refined to join the new Administration, solely on pri vate and personal considerations. - What will they say now, when his Lordship ha,;), publicly declared that his reaso n • for rejecting 4 ,he offer of the Tory government was, " that he had no faith in their professions !" We think they will find it rather difficult to reconcile his lordship's present statement with their own former re presentation of his sentiments. But that representa tion served the purpose of momentary delusion.' At a Inoment when the Tory leaders were almost despair i ng of being able to concoct a Cabinet, it w as of importance to make the public believe that Lord STANLEY was' with them in heart, if not in hand. They will find, however, that honesty is the .best Poli c y i n t hi s as i n other matters. The Electors will now go to the poll with the inspiring assurance that the heir of the Noble House of Derby shares with th em an unconquerable distrust of the Tory Adminis tration.

The Duke of Cumberland returned to his residence in St. James's Palace on Monday evening, from the Pavilion at 13righton. Count d'Aglie, the Sardinian Minister, M. de Morass Sarmentu, the Portuguese Minister, M. Tricoupi, the Greek Minister, and the Right Hon. H. Ellis, transacted business yesterday at the Foreign_ office. The Earl of Aberdeen had an interview yesterds,' with Sir R. Peel at his office in Downing-street. Despatches were sent off yesterday evening for Earl Granville, our Ambassador at Paris. An inquest was held this morning, before H. Baker, Esq., Coroner, on the body of a man, named Pcgler, who was found suspended to the iron railing in front of the house opposite the Beauvoir Arms Tavern, Kingsland. It ap peared from the evidence of Mr. W. Sargent, who stated, that as he passed the above place on Tuesday morning last, about one o'clock, he observed the deceased almost in a sitting posture, and supposing him to be intoxicated, he went, a; he expected, to assist him in getting up, but was struck with astonishment to find that the deceased had fastened a cord round his neck, having first made it fast to the railing, and threw himself off ; he procured the assistance of a police man, and the body was taken to Mr. Welch, surgeon, who, on examination, stated that the vital spark had fled. The de ceased was a man of respectable connections, but has been ob served of late to have been in a low desponding way. The Jury returned a verdict of " Temporary Insanity." _ . _ .~_~ ,-_=-mod''-. VIE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7, 1835. GENERAL ELECTIO_,. the enemies of the King and the people._( Cheers.) The time is arrived when you shall no longer be satisfied with general professions. It is not enough to know that the candidates call themselves Reformers, for so many take the name of Reformer, that, I confess, it almost stinks in the nostrils of almost every honest man.—( Hear, hear, and laughter.) It is not enough, I say, for a man to call himself a Reformer, for Mr. Lyall professes to be a Reformer.—(Loud laughter.) Mr. Ward is a Reformer—(renewed laughter)— and Captain Burton is a Reformer.--( Continued laughter.) In these times the test of Reform is this--s-will you, by every Constitutional means in your power, drive from the Royal con fidence those men who have used all means first to oppose the snd then to nullify it.—(Cheers.) It is because Reform Dili, "esision, and is prepared to act Mr. Clay has shown this cos,— -'nation, and you are upon it, that I am here t o secon d his no's_ It is a here to support his triumphant return.—(Cheers. delightful task to second such a man as William Clay. There is nothing in his past conduct for me to explain, to palliate or to defend—ut, an the con t rary , everyt hi og to adm i re. If 'it be true, as' the poet soys, th a t " an h onest man i s the no b lest work of God," who will say that William Clay is not such a man ?—Cheers.) I ask, in one word, what do you want in the character of your representatives ? You want intelligencce _yoti want them to understand your rights : and ko have firmness to maintain them.—( Hear.) If these are the qua lities essential to represent the feelings and opinions of the ricer) of the Tower Hamlets, who will say that they are not pre-eminently found in William Clay ?- s (Loud Cheers.) I call upon you not to look to words, but to deeds.--( Here a band of persons in the garb of sailors joined the assembly, and commenced creating the greatest uproar. They had all the appearance of a hired band ; and though not composing a hun dredth part of the meeting, they continued to interrupt the proceedings throughout.) Capt. Burton requested them to take the flags away which they bore. Mr. COATES.—I am glad the gallant Captain orders his colours to be taken down.--( Laughter. ) Capt. BURTON—No ; a little further off.--( Hear, and re newed laughter.) Mr. CoaTes.—l think the result of this election will show that you will take them down --(Cheers.) Mr. SCATCHARD came forward to propose Captain Ryder Burton, amidst much confusion. When he saw the good na u ed counter awes by which he was surrounded, he was sure they e•osld indulge him, as this was the first time he had attOmpted to address a public assembly.—( Cries of " That is false, as we have heard you before." He was independent in principle and property, and not to be bought, and possessed a love of country, a veneration for its institutions, and loyalty to his King. No Englishman could ever sanction the striking of of the colours of Great Britain ; he, therefore, proposed to represent the Tower Hamlets, Capt. Ryder Burton.--( Loud laughter and groats. ) Mr, MORRIS seconded the nomination. He was one of the manufacturing classes, and had a great stake in the trade of the borough. He seconded Capt. Burton, because he was a member of a talented and honourable profession, and because he was a defender of those principles, which, at the pre sent juncture, were in peril.—(Cries of " Oh, hear!") He knew not what better exposition of the princi ples which he meant, he could give, than by referring them to Sir Robert Peel's address.—( Loud groans.) He felt confident that Captain Burton was prepared to give his time and labour to the interests of this great commercial borough. —(Cries of " Go home I Off, off.") Captain BURTON here presented himself to the assembly, and persisted in speaking first, though contrary to usual etiquette, until the returning officer and the clamour of the crowd prevailed upon him to give way to Dr. LUSIIINGTON, who, on coming forward, was hailed with loud cheers by the whole assembly, with the exception of the noisy band before alluded to, who continued to disturb the quiet attention of the electors throughout, notwithstanding the re quests of Capt. Burton and Mr. Scatchard to the contrary. At lengthlDr.Lushing-ton proceeded—" Gentlemen Electors, I wish to address you, and I find that you are ready to hear me, for those who are making the disturbance are not electors, and it is most unbecoming in those who have sent them here not to remove them. I call upon you to do justice to your selves by hearing all—l call upon you to do credit to your selves by impartially listening to what can be advanced on both sides, for it is to your judgment, and to your decision, that one and all the candidates are now appealing--( Hear.) If two years ago I addressed you from this spot with deep anxiety on account of my own prospects, and with regard to the great interests of the nation which were then at stake, you may form some judgment with how much more intense feeling - I address you on the present occasion, whether in reference to my own character, or the aspect of public affairs, an interest ten thousand times greater--( Loud cheers, rs i s iclt lasted some time)—an interest which is now to be guarde," decision ; and on that decision—on that appeal to the ins7'.'s pendent electors of the Tower Hamlets, I cast my character. —( Cheers ) You have knosin my public conduct for the last two years ; and you who have known it for many years pre viously, know that I have always pursued the same course.— ( Cheers.) I addressed you, on the former occasion, when you had an Administration whose wishes and feelings were in unison with those of the people ; when the great triumph of the Reform Bill had just been obtained ; when you hoped, through the mcdium of your representatives in Parliament, to acquire the enjoyment of some of those benefits which the Reform Bill was intended to confer upon you—( Hear.) I now address you, when you have a Ministry in power, whose whole political lives, whether in or out of power, were at all times and seasons devoted, not merely to oppose Reform in Parliament, but all those great measures of just concession to our dissenting brethren, to all those great and important reforms of abuses for which the people had so long cried in vain. If that Administration stood away with all the hopes and wishes of the people—if that Government once obtained a majority in the House of Commens—they might bid farewell to every chance--(great cheering) --farewell to all our hopes.— ( Cheers.) He would ask, for a single instant, why were the present Administration in power ? Who could answer that plain question? The present Government were in power— hut Sir R. Peel had not told them why. Now, if the present Government had been in power because the late Government had been justly deposed from authority, should he not ask the reason why?—(Hear, and cheers.) When Sir R. Peel could have obtained permission from his Sovereign to avow publicly the cause, why had he not avowed it ?—( Cheers.) If the late Government had been dismissed for good and sound reasons, it would have been in favour of the present Adminis tration ; but if those persons, whose interest it was to make it known, had not done so, what had he and the people to infer, bat that Lord Melbour ne ' s Administration had been hurled from power because it had been proceeding honestly, boldly, zealously, wisely, and prudently, to fulfill the dearest wishes of the great majority of the people of England, by eradicating all those abuses which the people had so long cried out for—by reforming all those cor ruptions in Church and State which the Tories while in power so strenuously advocated.--( Loud cheers.) If ever there was a period when all those who were seriously attached to Reform —when all those whose hearts were warm in the cause—when all who valued the advantages of the people's liberties—when all those who sought for essential improvement in the Govern ment should come forward to support candidates advocating suc h principles —now is the time and now is the hour--( Tre mendous cheering for several minutes.) Various, observed the learned Doctor, have been the rumours and reports circu lated respecting the grounds of the opposition which has been raised to my return. It has been said, would you return to Parliament one who is disloyal to his King and to the Con stitution ? Gentlemen, allow me to say that I know the Constitution—( Tremendous cheering, which lasted some time. ) allow me to say, that I yield to no man, be he who he may, in just attachment to that Constitution.—( Loud applause.) Allow me to say, that I am well aware that the Constitution of King, Lords, and Commons, is the constitution of the land. Allow me to add, that in the hour of danger and tribulation, when the public weal is threatened by the return of the luvers of despotic rule, I take it that no man will discharge his duty honestly to that Constitution of King, Lords, and Commons, who does not speak his opinion openly, fairly, and boldly. — (Tremendous cheering.) Gentlemen, those who heard me on a former occasion, well know this, and that not a word did I say in derogation of his present Majesty.--( Hear and cheers.) What I had said was, that unfortunately it had happened ra ther on account of the attachment to reform, or from mere caprice, than from any just cause; and if that should be de clared publicly, it might go far to endanger the monarchy.— ( Great applause, and cries of " Yes, yes.") The safety of the monarchy was the love, affection, and attachment of the peo ple. If any act was done by bad advisers which had a ten dency to induce the people to believe that their best interests are not consulted in the formation of an Administration, will any man tell me that such a crisis would not endanger the mon archy.—(Tremendous applause.) In the course of my' whole public life' I have abstained from speaking of the Sove reign on the throne. I have uniformly held, in opposition to the Tories, that he was not responsible, but his advisers. Gentlemen, I am old enough to remember, and I had a scat in Parliament when that great and leading Tory, Sir William Grant —a man of first rate abilities—had come forward to de fend the dismissal of the Whig Administration, and said that no man had a right to be called to account for it. This is Tory doctrine—not mine. My doctrine is that the throne is not responsible for any errors, but that his Ministers should certainly be held responsible.—( Hear, hear.) I have yet to learn that after a Sovereign has departed this life, his conduct and his character are not a matter of history. I want to know what number of years it is that will shield from observation and inquiry the past conduct of monarchy-- whether we were to have waited, when we spoke of James the Second, until his grandson had expired.—( Immense cheers and laughter.) Whether, in the time of Qu een Eli za b et h, we were n o t to spea k of the deceased tyrant Henry VIII., or whether the mouths of Englishmen were to be shut when we spoke of the bloody Queen Mary.—( Hear, hear.) Gentle.- men, if this were so, we should shut out our most valuable guid e as the surest test of our conduct is past experience—b y your past experience, I ask you to judge of my conduct, an d by that I am willing to stand or fall.—(Great cheering.) But:, gentlemen, I am the most unfortunate man alive,—(Laughtet., and cries of " No, no.") Last time I had the honour of a special opposition in the person of Captain Marryatt—l hay e now another special opposition in the person of Captain Bur - telt — (Laughter, and cries of " It will do you no harm."') To-day it is for you to decide and to determine upon the T nen before you. I certainly shall not say more, for I have. the good fortune not to be an utter stranger to you.

The election for this extensive borough took place this day at Stepney Green, and at an early hour several thousand per eiernd the hustings. sons were cur reume eteese their appearan ce , The resp ec ti ve can did ates , on mite... were received with cheers and hisses by their respee..... friends and opponents. The Returning Officer, C. Warton, Esq., jun., having read the precept, and the other usual preliminaries having been gone through, came forward and addressed the Electors is follows : Electors of the borough of the Tower Hamlets : You are convened for the purpose of exercising one of the dearest rights belonging to Britons, a right which many of you have out recently possessed I congratulate you on the acquire ment of it, and myself on ,having the honour to preside on such an important occasion—an occasion on which you are about to select a Gentleman into whose hands you will intrust your valuable interests and liberties. I trust that the order mad good temper with which you will conduct yourselves luring the election, will prove that you are worthy of such a crust. You will be addressed presently by Gentlemen who are shout to propose candidates for your choice—gentlemen, perhaps of different opinions, but should there be sentiments tittered in which you may not coincide, I trust you will afford that to others which you would think very hard were it denied to yourselves —a fair and candid hearing. This far allow me Co suggest as to vour duties, which will render mine easy and tgreeable. As for myself, it will be no less my determina tion, than it is my obvious duty, to observe the strictest im pa, tiality. No gentleman shall have the opportunity of saying or feeling that he has been at any disadvantage on that score. I shall not detain you any further, having been chiefly anxious to impress upon you the necessity of good order and candid Attention to every speaker, but now proceed to call upon you '0 say whom von think fit to put in nomination to serve you as burgesses in Parliament. Mr. B. WADDEN came forward to propose Dr. Lushington. He said, Englishmen, brother Reformers, and be ther electors, I have to tell you this day, that your character for 'prudence,- ror calm discussion, for judgment and for impartiality, that your character for zeal to uphold the glories of the British constitution, that amenability to the law, your dispeeltion to uphold the magisterial auther:ty, and hand down those bless ings which well ordered society has produced in this country, Comprising a population the most numerous on the habitable globe, is this day at stake. That character has found its way over the civilized earth, and everywhere Englishmen are acknowledged to be cool and dispassionate. My object in calling your attention to this character, which has been esta blished throughout the civilized globe, and which I trust you will secure us an inheritance to your postesity is that you will pre serve that character, and give to the mov er an d secon d er o f the several candidat es a fair and impartial hearing,—( Great cheers.) I appear before you not attired in the garb of any party colours, or as a party man —my boast is that I belong to no party. I am neither Whig nor Tory, but I appear as a zealous advocate to maintain the rights and privileges of the people, and uphold the prerogative of the throne.—( Great hooting and hissing.) lam an advocate for combining in one phalanx of strength those three great Estates of national ad vantage, Kings, Lords, and Commons ; but although this is my view, and this the doctrine which regulates my conduct, I appear l:efore you this day as a reformer to the back bone.—(Tremen dous cheering.) As a reformer of every abuse that has found its way into the constitution of the country—anxious to withdraw from the British constitution everything that might lead to destroy its beauty—( Applause)—l appear before you not as an Englishman, although I live, thank GOD, in peace and harmony among you. But I cannot forget the wretched and deplorable state of my unfortunate country Ireland.— (IGreat cheering.) I cannot overlook this important fact, that last Session an Act was passed for the purpose of giving peace and security to that country, and by which every clergyman was secured a sum of 771. les. per cent., and by which peace and good will would be rendered permanent. I cannot forget that this act has been rendered abortive, nor by whom. It was by the Duke of Wellington and his party.---( Great uproar.) Let no man call me a Destructive,—l hurl back with contempt and indignation the term Destructive, if applied to me. Who are the Destructives ? to whom was to be ascribed the torrents of blood that had been lately shed at Rathcoemac ?—( Cries of "the Tories.") lam inclined to lay it at the door of that party who threw out the Bill, which, if it had passed, would have saved my country from such, a deplorable event. With these views I beg to propose to you as a fit and proper person to take care of ,your interests, to guard your freedom, and to uphold your prerogatives—l propose for your use as a representative a man who has been always found a faithful servant, 'and who was that man ?—Dr. Lushington,—(Tremendous cheering, and waving of hats for some-minutes.) As there are so many to address you, I think it my duty to leave the Doctor in your' hands,' satisfied you will not discharge a faithful servant, but that you will give him increased confidence in a renewal of his commission to advocate your interests, which he has hitherto done with a moral courage equal to anything that was ever exhibited.—( Gs eat app!ause. ) GEORGE OFFFL Esq., Magistrate, came forward amidst loud cheers. He said—You know me, Gentlemen, to be an inde pendent man - -soindependent am I known to be that not one of the candidates have been near to ask me for my vote, all knowing that I would vote according to principle, and not ac cording to any stuff that could be said to me. I must look at my men, weigh . them, and prove them to be good and true, and such as will cleanse our beloved monarchy of all that is abusive and improper. —(Hear hear and cheers.) Such men I will support with all my heart, and do all that I can do to return them as your representatives.—( Hear.) We were told a little ago that we would return democrats, and such trumpery stuff as that, but I would ask you to look back to what we have done ; and I will tell you that Rome in her brightest senate never boasted of two such independent, inde fatigable, and honest men---( Loud cheers)—never boasted of men so ready to attend to your wants, who felt more anxiety for your interests, stuck more closely to your rights, and who had proved themselves more highly talented and thorough patriots in all they have' elsewhere clone.—( Hear, hear.) I do feel, I may say happy, that any man should come to agitate our peaceful hamlet. If we had on a former occasion returned two Tories to Parliament, and if a Reformer had now come to try to agitate us, just fancy how the Tory Press would have stigmatised us, and been at a loss to know how to have emitted forth their venom upon the in dustrious and peacefid inhabitants of this hamlet._( Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, lam used to public speaking, and lam happy to see you feel an interest on the present occasion, be cause it satisfies me that you know you have an important duty to perform, and that you.will prove that you know how to discharge that duty aright.—( Loud cheers; and here there was volley of opprobrious epithets directed to our selves, taking us for the Reporters of a morning paper, which had denominated the electors of the Hamlets a parcel, as they vociferated, of "wild beasts; " and such an interruption did that cause, that we had to declare openly that we were report ing for " The Sun.") If there are any wild beasts here, (con tinued the speaker) we shall know how to muzzle them.— I will not detain you longer than to say I have watched most narrowly the two men you did return, and that I found them true British men, Without any falsity whatever ; there fore, most heartily recommend to you the Doctor, whose bril liant talents, indefatigable exertions, and independence of mind ) I am sure will promote your liberties, your commerce, your happiness, and all that is dear to you—( Loud cheers.) JOHN SIMPSON, Esq., came forward and entreated their at tention for a few moments, in order that he might have the opportunity of proposing William Clay, E,sq., as a fit and pro per person to be their representative. Gentlemen, he said, you well know the great and indefatigable attention he has paid to our interests during the last two Sessions of Parliament—( Hear). He then gave an earnest of the constant industry he will pay during the time to come. He has been found worthy to be placed the first and foremost in the ranks of our best friends and of the friends of the country. Gentlemen, if we should proceed to a poll on this occasion, I trust you will place him in that high and distinguished sta tion which will best show our desire and our exertions for cur own welfare. WIC COATES, Esq., then came forward and said, Gentle men and fellow Englishmen, you are now assembled to exer cise an important right —you are assembled to-day to exercise that right which distinguishes freemen from slaves, and to return to the Legislature men who will make the laws by which we are to be governed. Gentlemen, his Majesty has, in dismissing the late Parliament, exercised the Royal prero ga ire ; but we are here to exercise the people's prerogative. —( Immense cheering.) The exercise of the Royal preroga tive excited alarm throughout the country; but the exercise of the people's prerogative will re-assure the public mind, and prove to the whole world, that by means of good order, peace, and firmness, we are determined to secure to the people all those effects which the Reform Bill was intended to give—( Cries of " Hear, hear")—and without which ef fects that Bill itself would only be an insulting mockery to the community of England.—( Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, in the language of the Royal Proclamation which I saw last night in the Gazette, his Majesty calls upon the people to meet him, and to give him their advice in Parliament. By God's assistance, we will give him that advice._(lmmense cheering.) That advice will be given by gentlemen who have the image and objects of our interests engraven on their hearts, who understand our interests, and who are determined to main tain them in the House of Commons.—(Great cheering. ) What is it that the people of England desire ? Not violence, not disorder, not anarchy, not confusion, else would they go to the Tory faction.—( Loud applause.) Gentlemen, we desire the peaceful fruits of the Great Charter of our liberties. The enemies of the Reform Bill have abused the public mind, and stigmatized the people of England when they said that Reformers were wanting in loyalty to the King.—( Hear.) We love the Monarchical Government and institutions of our oountry. Not even the Gallant Captain—(Laughter)— though he had risked his life in the defence of his country— ( Cries of " When ?")—felt a higher attachment of loyalty to the King than do the Reformers of the Tower Hamlets.— (Hear.) Our loyalty and our devotion to the King is the principle and feeling of patriotism. Our love for his Majesty is the love of freemen, and not the adulation of slaves.— ( Cheers.) He is a King, not for himself, but for the people. What has one of our most moral poets said? " He is ours to administer, to guard, to adorn the State, But not to thwart all change." —( Hear, hear.) You are to serve him nobly in the common cause ; you will be true to the death, but not to be his slaves. Cheers.) It is this feeling of affection that calls upon us to show that demonstration of the public will, that will drive those evil men from his Majesty's Council, who have abused the Royal ear, and who have ever proved themselves equally of the corn laws--the entire extinction altogether of flogging in the army and navy—the abolition of impressment —in short, I go to forward your interests as I did upon the question of seamen's wages, when you recollect how I joined against the Government, who were my friends, as an act of justice to the seamen, that they should no longer pay their sixpences to the Hospital ; and you know whether my exer tions did not contribute in some degree toNobtain that ad vantage—(loud cheers)—to a most worthy class of men. Now I will detain you no longer, relying, as I do, with the most perfect confidence in the judgment of the electors of the Tower Hamlets. By the tests of your votes you will judge of the comparative merits of your candi dates. Ido not attempt to defend myself against some of the petty slanders that have been issued against me. You know me, and I confide in your judgment. Cheers.) I shall never, for a single instant, attempt to disparage any one who stood in competition with me. You are the persons who are the candidates. l am o f op i n i on t h at persons to dem: : 'non embarking in con s. ..:' Ls like these, ought to remem b er t h at, al.- :Icvn pretensions, y e t th e d ec i s i ons though they set f or th th eir . undoubtedly rest with y ou , an d an ; attempt to impeach th e character or conduct of an opponent ought m.;;;! 4, be resorted to. One word, and I h ave d one . Y ou are we ll aware gat three or four votes of mine have been unacceptable to my consa-- tuents. I trust I have explained them ; but, if I have not, at any rate the Tories ought not to blame, for Peel himself was with me. ( Here Mr. Hume came on the hustings, and was greeted with loud cheers.) Recollect the importance of the Tower Hamlets, a borough that ranks not second to any in the kingdom when I consider its population, intelli gence, and property.—( Che er s.) I wou ld, t h ere fore, call upon you to elect that candidate who, knowing the importance of the trust committed to him, will discharge his duty to his constituents with the greatest courage and fidelity. Mr. CLAY come forward and was received with the most enthusiastic cheering, when silence was obtained, he pro ceeded. I request the favour of perfect silence while I ad dress a few observations to you. Let me state, that while I recognised personal acquaintance, by shaking hands with the gentleman on the right (Dr. Lushinghton, not that I have any ungentlemanly feeling towards him on my left (Capt. Burton) ( Loud cheers. ) Any one might be proud of your approba tion, and I feel the greatest pride at being brought uncle:- your notice once more. I entreat the honour of being again the representative of the vast and important borough of Tower Hamlets, second to none in the kingdom, in mo rals, and the public spirit of its inhabitants.—(Chee s.) The being your representative would confer honour on the fi talents in the country.--( Cheers.) I now utter sentiment; timilar to those which actuated me when I first had the honour of standing for your suffrages. Then I had nothing but me private character, and a candid avowal of my principles, which I could bring forward as entitling me to your confidence, and I felt a great anxiety when claiming yonr reliance on me; but now I stand in a different si-uation, I have been before you as your representative ; you have seen whether my former pretensions to your support were just, and I have now something more substantial on which to claim your confi dente.—( Cheers.) I will not now say what I will do-- but look at what I have done.—( Loud cheering. ) You are now well able to judge whether I am fit to be the assertor of your honour and the guar dian of your rights.—( Yes.) A calm consideration of the merits of the different candidates is at all times right, but now doubly necessary.—(Cheeers, and " Hear.") The King, in the exercise of his prerogative, has thought fit to dismiss his Ministers, who were acceptable to the people. Ido not ques tion his right to dismiss them, but I know not why ho should confide in those who were unacceptable to the people— ( Cheers)—and by their advice he dissolved the late House of Commons. I should conceive his present Ministers offered advice somewhat like this—" Sire," I fancy I hear them say ing, " we could not hold office a week with the present par liament—( Laughter and cheers)—please your Majesty the present House of Commons does not fairly represent the people send these troublesome fellows about thier busi ness, and the people will doubtless send us a Parliament who ,will be as much satisfied with us, as this Parliament was with our predecessors.—(Much laughter.) I unequivocally declare myself a determined opponent o f th e present 'Ministry. —( Cheers.) Do you ask me why ? is it because I am a Whig ? lam no Whig. Is it because they are Tories? No, it is not. I care not what they call themselves. But it is because 1 believe them opposed to those reformations in Church and State necessary alike for justice and the well-being of our country.—( Much cheering.) Th e y ( t h e Tories) have said " Look at the factious men, they oppose every motion in Parliament, whether it is good or bad, because it comes from a Tory. Now I need not take up any of your time in in refuting such miserable invective as this.—( Cheers.) Neither of the candidates before you, I am sure, would op pese any motion on such a ground as this—but we believe .42, present Ministers took office with the intention of opposing every sr_-zies of beneficial ref orm .—( H ear. ) L oo k at t h e co::.ilusion in a Second Edition. FINSBLTRY. The neighbourhood of Islington-green was thi2 morning a scene of bustle and merriment. ' Long before the hour of no mination, twelve o'clock, Islington green was crowded with a vast concourse of persons, anxious to be present at the nomina tion of the candidates. The different candidates came to the hustings preceded by banners and flags. Mr. Serjeant Spankie, on arriving upon the hustings, was loudly hissed, and cries resounded from the crowd of, " You will be out on Saturday, Spankie," ". You have got a bad suit," " Do you think you are before the real people now." " Here's your hobby-horse coming—how's your master, Bobby, the rat-catcher."—( Great laughter.) Mr. Wakley, on coming upon the hustings, was most en thusiastically cheered. Among the crowd we noticed an old lady, over whose head at least 75 summers' suns had shone, who appeared a most inveterate enemy of the Learned Ser geant, repeatedly shaking her hand at him, and sayinz, " Don't you wish you may get into Parliament, Learned Ser geant." Mr. Duncombo was loudly cheered, and cries resounded from the crowd of " Mind your pockets, Duncombe—the Spankites are there ;" " No Bath Cakes." —( Loud laughter.) Hobhouse won't come, he's gone to Bath." The Precept and Bribery Act Writ were read, and the oath administered by the returning officer, J. Raphael, Esq. At the conclusion of the ceremony Mr. Hobhouse arrived before the hustings, and was received with mingled cheers and hisses. J. RAPHAEL, Esq., then came forward. The electors were called upon at the present crisis to exercise the valuable pri vileges of electing two members to serve them in the new Par liament. It was his duty as a returning officer to record their votes, and return them to the Sheriff of Middlesex.—( Cheers. ) He would endeavour to discharge his duty to the uttermost, and he trusted that the electors would do theirs, and give every gentlemen a patient and impartial hearing. WALTER SKIRROW, Esq. (a Chancery Barrister), came for ward, and said it was the privilege of every elector, upon an occasion like the present, to address them ; and he was quite sure they wonld give every candidate a patient attentive, and indulgent hearing. He would only ask them ae do that which he would do for every one, not to prejudge, but .first of all to hear what every elector might have to say, And if he expressed himself in sentiment s , o f w hi c h th e y disztoproved, he should lament it for his own part extremely.—( Cries of " No soft soap.")—but he hoped they would give to every person present the hearing which he was entiiled to. I",'e King havin g , in the exercise of his rightful prerogative.. ( Groans and hisses)—dissolved the Parliament, they were called upon to return two. Members to Parliament, —(not Spankie or Hobhouse) and in the exercise of the elective franchise he was sure every one would agree with him that it was their duty and interest to elect such persons who were best able to discharge the important trusts which they would have committed to their hands.—( Cries of " That's Wakley.) He had to speak of only of one individual, the other candidates, he had no doubt, were honourable men, and they would be able to speak for themselves but he would beg to remind them that Mr. Sergeant Spankie (the groans and yellings at the mention of the learned Sergeant's name became so great, that Mr. Skirrow could not proceed for some time. Amidst which we.e cries of "We want nothing of Spankie." He wants to get on the woolsack. " He is a spanking Professor." At length the learned gentle man finding it was impussible he could be heard, notwithstand ing the entreaties of the Returning Officer, at length said he would conclude by proposing Mr. Spankie as a fit and pro Fer representative to serve the electors of Finsbury in Parliament. ( Loud groans and hisses.) C. WOODWARD, Esq., then came forwasd to second the nomination of Mr. Sergeant Spankie, amidst yellings and hootings, and great uproar, which indeed continued through out the whole of this gentleman's address, and it was with great difficulty that we could hear what he said He had not unfrequently appeared before the inha bitants of that village to advocate the cause of the poor man, yet this was the first time in which he had ever presented him. self as a political character, yet he had great satisfaction in doing so, because he knew he was concerned in a good, a great, and glorious cause. , But in his thus offering himself to them, they might inquire what were his principles and what were the principles which he would advocate ; They might ask whether he was a Whig or a Tory? but he would tell them that he had very good reasons for believing he was nei ther.—( Increased groans and hisses.) He would tell them why. He found one person calling him a Tory, and he found another calling him a Whig, while lie, as a practical man, knew that he could not be both. He would, therefore, tell them that he was a Reformer, and he came ;before them :as a reformer, to advocate the cause of Reform. Further, he always had been and ever would be a reformer, and he would never support any candidate who would not ad vocate the case of Reform.---( Hisses, and cries a " Then why do you support Spankie.) It would be useless for him or any other man to say there were no abuses, every man knew that in proportion as his family and his little circle increased so there would be an increase of dilapidation and abuse also, but all that he had to say was that he was ready to reform them when he could find them. If he found abuses in his own house he would reform them, not by pulling down the House altogether, but he would reform the abuses themselves while he evleavoured to support the house, so with reference to the nation itself, while they attempted to reform all abuses, let them support the constitution, and surely no cne would ob ject to that. He (Mr. W.) was a Reformer, and a downright Radical Reformer.—( Cries of, " A reformer in 'disguise.") He would advocate the cause of that reform which would make every, man begin to reform at home. He hoped that they would return to Parliament Mr. Spankie, who had ever been distinguished for his talent and integrity.—(Here the deafen ing cries of " Off off!" and the groans and yells, became so loud that Mr. Woodward said that he was very happy to se cond the nomination of Mr. Sergeant Spankie, who was such a reformer who would cleanse the house, but not pull it down. He therefore called upon them to assist him in placing Mr. Sergeant Spankie at the head of the poll. p - c d < b rti ;V .:;.. i n ' ti•.~ n h e Mr, BENJAM IN J OHN ARMSTROQPap peared before them a few months:sincerAiCafre:nomina tion of the candidate he was then about to proPdie, he had told them that if that Hon. Candidate were sent to. Parlia ment he would realise every expectationNthat:an upright and free constituency ought to demand.—(Cheers.) Ife was emboldened to make that prediction in consequence . of the way in which that Hon. Gentleman had fought the - battles of the people for three Sessions, and by the contest 'which he maintained at Hertford—(Loud cheers)---a contest against Tory misrule, Tory gold, and‘Tory Administration.—(Loud cheers.) Regardless of personal sacrifice, that Hon. Gentle man had thrown himself into the fight to redeern this borough from the disgrace of returning a Tory,' he had fought monfully, and they had received and hailed him as the victor, and had twined the laurel wreath around his broW.—(Loud cheers.) They did their duty then, and he had no doubt but that they would now return him triumphantly at the head of the poll—(Cheers)—and they would give the same suffrages they had done on the last occasion to his hon. friend Thomas Slingsby Duncombe.—(Loud cheers.) He challengeka re trospection of his (Mr. Duncombe's) past conduct in every vote which he had given, and they would find. his votes, from the beginning toi the .end, in favour of the :liber ties of the people for the enlargement of the popular f ra esthise, and for ensuring to the people their natural rights-- ( Tremendons cheering.) He had other claims to their sup. port and approbation. Since they had returned him, for this Borough, be had been invariably the advocate of every local interest and question which bad been submitted to him. He had never been absent upon any division in which the interests of the people were concerned, but had been always at his post—( Loud cheers)—and his armour was now buckled on, ready .o fight again and again. But there were other claims to their support—the Borough of Finsbury was indebted to him for the munificent support he had g iven to all the charitabl e institutions of the Borough—H e ar, hear.) If they wanted_a • worthy an honest representative, they must elect such ,a'man as the candidate he proposed. But then one thing more, he wished them to recollect they must send in another man with him who would vote as he did, and not by counter votes neu tralize his efforts, and render the Borough of Finsbury as if the Reform Bill had never passed. He was awore that great efforts had been made to keep his honourable feiend out of the Borough by everymecies ofjTory misgovernment, intimi dation, slander, and malice ; but the electoriwere too wise to be led astray by such means. The constituency of Finsbury hid investigated the charges made against his honourable friend, and had found . _them groundless and ' and that they ought never to be brought forward at the present moment. He was sure he might leave the interests of his Hon. Friend in their hands, and he, would therefore content himself with proposing as a candidateto re present them in the ensuing Parliament, Thomas Sligsby Duncon - .be—(Tremendous cheering.) Mr. HEWITT, Esq. came forward amidst loud cheers, and said he was greatly delighted at the opportunity of'recoie mending to their notice the candidate whose name had just been mentioned—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) When he stood in that place to nominate . him at the last electioln, he would only refer to his conduct when he represented a borough, very dissimilar to that of Finsbury. But his con duct, as represented of him at Hertford, was sufficient,to in duce them to return him for Finsbury, and if these reasons were then sufficient, they were doubly bound to return him at the head of the poll now.—(Tremendous cheering.) Thee ought to endeavour to distinguish between real and pretended Reformers.—(Loud cheers ; and " Takc that, Hobhouse.") He would not, however, have alluded to the subject, if tho gentleman who seconded the Hon. Candidate (Spankie) had not alluded to it. That gentleman had made a profes sion of Radical Reform, which bad been acceded to by his gesture, and a bow from the Hon. Candidate.—(Loud cheers.) The Hon. Candidate had given a silent assent to the opinion of his seconder, which was sufficient to convince) him (Mr. H.) that their cause was hopeless, since they were obliged to come there in the disguise of reformers. At the election two years ago, one thing had operated on his mind. and had caused him to give a vote, and which he ever since regretted. He had received the Hon. Candidate's (Spankie) printed opinion upon the three objects they had then in view. the shortening of the duration of Parliament, vote by ballot, and the extension of the suffrage. These had been so ably advocated by the Hon. Candidate, as to induce him to give the vote to which he had alluded. Some friends of his thought proper to dispute the propriety of his vote ; and consequence of this he wrote to Mr. Sergeant Spankie for an acknowledgment of the pamphlet. He received a letter from the Hon. Gentleman, accompanying the pamphlet, and stating that there was nothing in the pamphlet which an honest man should disavow. But those opinions - and those sentiments had been falsified by his conduct since he was in Parliament. --(Loud cheers.) They now required something more than professional assurance, or, perhaps, what some people might call the impudence of the Learned Serjeant. The electors would not be satisfied with his word—they would look back to his actions; What did the honourable candidate call those! electors who b,ad not to express their opinions relative to the abuse of the Crown. He said they were a discontented rabble. Would the electors submit to this ? They had been called upon to sign a declaration cf exclusive loyalty, as had been done in the ci;"v. He was as loyal as any man , but he would not sig:n that declaration:—(hear, hear)_... for it was jesuitically itized up with matters with which it had no concern. It was intended to serve a purpose, but it was impossible that either the Sing or the Duke_c o nli be de ceived by it, or if they were they - would be undeceived now by the glorious conduct of the electors of London. Let the electors of Finsbury act as the citizen' of London had done and he did not care whom they returned, provided they did not return THAT man (pointing to Sergeant Spankie), he con cluded by seconding the nomination o Mr. Duncombe. %lr. GEORGE ROGERS then came forward L'o propose Mr. Wakley amid great cheering. The electors wzn - e assembled there for the purpose of performing a most important duty, the most important that could be performed by the free citizens of a free country. It happened most singularly that the time the electors were called upon to perform the most important were probably one of the most critical that had ever occurred in this country since the Revolution of l6BB.—(Great cheer ing.) Upon the conduct of the electors of Great Britain during the present crisis depended probably the fate of the country for many years.—(Loud cheering.) If the Alec. tors performed their duty with integrity and deci sion, that domination which the popular cause had had so long to struggle with, would be at once put down.— ( Great cheering)—and the rights of industry, liberty, and the cause of the people generally, would be respected, and made prominent, instead of the Government being carried on for the corrupt purposes of the governing few-.—( Great cheer-. ing.) He had said that it depended upon the electors who should or who should not be returned to Parliament for the borough. On the conduct of the electors depended theirs own good. Formerly the Tory domination was violent ; they called the people despots, and everything that was bad, ,The method of attack was now changed ; the Tories had now taken another mode altogether ; they came to .the people now like wolves in sheep's clothing, for after being Tories for a number of years, they came forward now and told the people that they were Reformars.—( Cheers and hisses.) Every body was a Reformer now, from the Duke of Welling ton and Sir R. Peel down to one of the candidates -who appeared at the hustings that day for their suffrages.-. (Cheers.) The Tories had now, as they said, all beeoma Reformers, but lit trusted the people would not believe them ' - if they did, they might depend on it they wo u ld b e d ece i ve d, unless they took especial care to detect them. He trusted the electors would closely question every candidate and weigh heir answers, and after they had made up their mind who they wo,•ild vote for to wait for nothing, but come up to the poll, and give their votes according to teir conscience.—( Cheers. ) li e h ack ' twice had the honour of proposing a gentleman to the e l ectors 0 ; the berough, whom he believed to be calculated to do & grc o.test good for his country.--( Cheers. ) conclusion in a Second Edition. LAAIBETH. The nomination of the e . J .ndidates for this borough wast,zed tlock. The hustings were emitted for this morning at eleven o'c on Kennington-common, whici: was all alive with election bustle at an early hour. Mr, lawes, accompanied by his Committee, arrived about eleven 'clock, and was received with loud cheering by one of the 1 , -, ost respectable body of electors we ever beheld at a nomination. He was fol lowed in a very short time by Mr. T e .nnyson, who was likewise received with immense cheers. Th.lre were a num ber of flags belonging to the different candidate:.' on the Liberal side—the Tory contented himself with sending - a number of individuals bearing boards, upon which was writtcm, " FARE.' BROTHER, THE FRIEND OF THE POOR."
