The town of Liverpool has incurred considerable odium, on account of the bribery and corruption which have distinguished its elections. This has been owing to the con duct of the Corporation. On some two or three occasions, during the last dozen years, not less than 100,0001. have been spent by members of the defunct Corporation, in bribinr , and treating the old freemen so elect them to the civic chair. Boards have been paraded on these occasions in front of the Town Flail, offering 1001. for a tally of freemen ; thus pay ing them for their " sweet voices " at the r a te of 10/. per man ! Although the late Corporation of Liverpool was always un popular with the great majority of the inhabitants, on account of its bigoted and exclusive character, yet nothing has dis gusted the public so completely as the recent conduct of its members in the Church Endowment business. That job was perpetrated by the Corporation in its dying moments, and a portion of the town estates pawned, in order to pension the friends and relatives of the members, who officiate in the Cor poration Churches, on the public purse. Nothing can describe the feelings of indignation to which this shameless job gave rise. • The elections to-day were looked to by all parties in this great town as decisive of the question, whether Toryism or Liberalism for the future would reign in the ascendant. In every ward—the town is divided into sixteen, each returning three Councillors—Committees were formed of Tories and Reformers ; a canvass was regularly entered into, and all the bustle, expense, and activity of a Parliamentary election was every where visible. Ward meetings were every where held, candidates addressing their constituents personally, as well as by placards and advertisements ; in short, both parties entered into the struggle heart and soul, knowing that they played for a great stake. The Tories, with that blustering braggadocia for which the party has been ever distinguished, were offering wagers that they would have a majority in the new Council, and thereby secure the election of sixteen additional Tory Aldermen. How are the mighty fallen! They started as candidates for the of fice of Town Councillors forty-eight of their crack men, and, horrible to relate, only, four of them have been elected Yes, it is a fact—it will excite astonishment throughout England— the rate-payers of Liverpool have elected FORTY-FOUR Re formers-and only four Tories to the new Council. The Tory minority may possibly be increased to six, as there are two candidates whose numbers on the poll are equal, and the Mayor, who is an ultra-Tory, has the power by the Act to de cide who shall sit. He will naturally prefer his own partisans. The wretched figure which the Tories have cut in this con test is most amusing. This has not only been the most active and important, but the proudest day that ever occurred in the annals of Liverpool. The old domineering Tory clique is per fectly amazed at the result. Toryism in Liverpool henceforward is extinct, and the next Parliamentary election will be followed by another important measure—the ejection of Lord Sandon. The power which the corrupt old Corporation had in enabling his Lordship to preserve his seat is notorious. (ANOTHSR ACCOUNT.) TRIUMPH OF THE REFORMERS. Our election is over, and it has disappointed the expecta tions of all parties, both Whigs and Tories—the Tories have • been defeated, and the Reformers triumphant, greatly be , yond the most sanguine anticipations of either. Last night the Tories were confident of a majority of at least four in the new council ; this evening they have only four of their party there ; in two words, of the forty-eight new coun cillors elected, forty-four are Reformers, and four Tories This is giving the Tories the benefit of two double returns, which it is expected the Mayor, who is a Tory, will de cide in their favour. This glorious result is not the only ground for triumph. The Tories have not only been beaten in almost every ward, but they hate been beaten by over whelming majorities. In nearly all the wards their - highest candidate had not within a hundred votes of the lowest Re form candidate. It is impossible to describe, or almost to imagine the degree of sensation which this complete over throw of the Tories has excited in the town. The people are meeting in crowds, and congratulating each other on their victory. The Reformers took the lead at the opening of the poll in all the wards except one or two, and they were never beaded by their opponents; on the con trary, the Reform majorities went on steadily increasing till the close. The official announcement will not be made by the Mayor until Monday. In the mean time I send you a copy of the return furnished from the different wards by the .Re. form Committees to the central association, and as very faci lity was afforded to both parties to take a correct return from the mouths of the voters as they came to the poll, it may be considered as almost perfectly accurate.

COMPLETE DEFEAT OP THE TORIES. We have received the particulars of the polling at Cam bridge on S 'aturday, accompanied by a letter from an active and .well.kt sown Reformer in that independent town, from which the f. Allowing is an extract : CA.MBRID 4E, SATI7RDAY NIOIIT.—TIIC result of the polling in the five' Wards into which our town is divided, has just been officially no Life& and I hasten to communicate it, for the gra tification of our Liberal friends. Our triumph over the Rut land factiot I is indeed most signal : not a single Tory is re turned to ,the Town Council in any one of our wards. In East Barr Ip tell Ward there was no opposition to the Liberal candidate a. In West Barnwell Ward, the Whig lowest on the poll is ( vnsiderahly more than 100 a-head of the highest Tory. In the Market Ward, where our friends did not can vass, the c( mtest was severe, but ended in the return of all the Wlf,g can d' 'dates, by a majority of 25 the Whig lowest on the poll above: the highest Tory. In Trinity Ward, the Liberals were as v ict xtrious as in West Barnwell, and in St. Andrew's Ward, tb e stronghold" of Toryism, the difference, between the least :nu Esher voting for the Whig and the greatest for the Tory, is :mc r than 50 ! The *later tist taken by the town in this contest was very great ; but though the excitement was considerable, the elec tion was: the most orderly and peaceable ever known in the town. The was no rioting, no uproar, no drinking. The burgess es sh it wed by their conduct how well qualified they Were to (exert i'se the important rights so long unjustly withheld from th( d so wisely, by the present Government, granted to them. : Fist a of the late Aldermen offered themselves as candidates ( .n.-the Tory side, all of whom (including the Mayor) Were beaten ; and five of the late Common Councilmen shared the same 1 'ate. The town continues as quiet as possible, thOugh the rejoicing at this great victory is extreme.

The six wards of this borough, in common with all other corporate towns, have been busily engaged to-day in polling for the Town Councillors for the year ensuing ; and no method could have been devised which appears to work so well as that point, sd out in the Municipal Act. Not a single interruption occur red.—the questions and unpleasant accompaniments of Parlit tinentary elections were entirely done away with, and, to show the facility with which the result can be ascertained, the forty-two Councillors elected in the six divisions are named below..

The chair was taken by F. ESrle, M.D., at seven o'clock precisely, at which time the large room was crowded. A series of resolutions having been passed, the following individuals were fixed upon to represent the burgesses in Town Council :—Mr. R. Linn, Mr. F. Earle, Mr. John Stevenson, Mr. Thomas Williamson, Mr. John Walbran, Mr. Handley Stevenson, Mr. F. Parker, Mr. John Robinson, and Mr. John Jackson. All these are good Reformers. Each name was proposed to the meeting separately, and all of them were decided upon without any dis sent—Leeds Mercury. On Saturday evening a meeting was convened by the mem bers of the Old Corporation, C. Oxley, Esq., in the chair, when ten Blue and two Whig candidates were submitted to their choice. The first person proposed to the meeting was the present Mayor, who, on a show of hands being called for, had an equal number for and against him. All the others, with the exception of Mr. W. Williamson (for whom both par ties were nearly unanimous) had ten persons against them to one in their favour ; yet these individuals are to he thrust upon the town by the tenants and independents of a certain la ly, to form the tail of her agents.—Leeds Mercury.

In this borough the liberals in the Corporation Elections to-day (Saturday) have exceeded their most sanguine expec tations—the old roost is cleared, excepting two of the old cor porators. The Reformers have nobly, honestly, and trium phantly done their duty; out of eighteen Councillors they have returned sixteen ; and of the two returned by the Tories one is Arbell Ray Oakes, Esq., the King of the late Corpo ration, who in all probability will not accept the office ; and the other Mr. R. Maulkin, who was partly supported by the Reformers, and is far from a Tory. The only other member of the Corporation who has been returned is Mr. George Creed, a gentleman of liberal principles, which he singly maintained upon that corrupt body. The other new Council lors consist of gentlemen of various religious denominations— Churchmen, Dissenters, and Quakers; and, to the honour lof their constituents, and in particular of four clergymen of the Established Church, who gave them their full support, the Dissenters attained in one ward the first place on the poll, and in the other two wards, very eminent situations. The ma. chinery of the Bill, upon the whole, worked extremely well, though, of course, like all new works, it may be materially simplified: The result of the polls, at each ward, was as follows : WEST WARD-225 ELECTORS.

TRIUMPH OF THE REFORMERS IN THE ELECTION OF MUNICI- PAL COUNCILLORS. You are well aware of the long exercised power of the To ries in this city from their possession of the strong and cor rupt hold of the City Corporation. Their funeral bell is tolling. The Liberals, in ardent and hearty concert, have overturned the Babel tower of the Conservatives. The ma jority of the old corporators are drummed out. Our flag will float on the Town-hall. We are in by a majority of eight councillors, having returned 28 Reformers to 20 Conserva tives. The reign of Bribery and municipal tyranny, thank God, is over, and " Justice" will not be bartered fur votes. The Tories fought every ward and bribed thick and thin, and the warding was partially against us, besides the gross dispropor tion of the numbers of the ward electors. Tell young Scar lett and Stormont they need not come, on any dissolution cf Parliament—we shall serve them the same at the first *oppor tunity. I can't send you the polls, but you may rely it is all correct. We don't wonder at Scarlett's votes on the Cor poration Bill, or Stormont's praises of the defunct corporators ; therknew the Bill would not agree with Toryism. We are in high spirits only want to complete the business by returning two Liberal and real representatives when Lord Melbourne has done with this Peel Parliament. May it be soon ! With some better management in one ward, we should have chasseed more Tories, but believing that they could carry the majority of the Council, they moved " heaven and earth," and bribed furiously. But we shall get the Aldermen. How came the Lords to overlook that ? We think they overreached them selves. [FROM ANOTHER CORRESFONDENT.I ' It is gratifying to learn that the result of the municipal election in this city has been triumphant to the cause of Re form, as they have obtained a majority of 28 Reform Coun • cillors to 20 Tories, viz : Tories.

(From a Second Edition of the Leeds Mercury.) The Reformers have succeeded beyond our most sanguine anticipations in the Municipal Election. Out of twelve Wards, the Reform Candidates have completely triumphed in ten. One Ward belongs wholly to the Tories ; and one Ward is divided between the parties. The result of the elec tion is as follows : Reformers elected Councillors 4O Tories ditto ditto 8 Total 4B Eight of the old Aldermen were candidates, and four of the old Common Councilmen; two of the former, and one of the latter, have been elected to the new Corporation. The election has been conducted with perfect tranquillity, though considerable popular interest was felt. The state of the poll, at its close at four o'clock, cannot be ascertained with perfect accuracy, owing to the mode of voting, in which the names of the candidates voted for are not pro claimed, but only a voting paf)er given in.

It wi' a be observed by the result that the question of who should be Councillors was entirely a political one. The working of the Bill depends greatly on the temper with which the va► ions Councils exercise their office ; and though we have no ',objection to a few Tories (for so long as they can be kept wi thin bounds by a preponderance of Reformers, they are as ri seasoning„ like salt to our porridge), yet, if they had had fuU sway in all quarters, the Bill weuld have been ren dered n ugatory ; a Tory Council would have been followed by Tor: f Magistrates ; and we know well enough in the county what they work for : on the contrary, and we rejoice to anno , Inca it, our Council is eminently a Liberal one. The two W urds of Portsea Town, and the districts of St. Paul and All; Saints,_have returned none but Reformers ; in Ports mouth liVard all are Reformers but one ; while, on the con trary, th e only three Councillors for St. Mary's Ward are Tories.

MALDON. The Town Councillors are all Reformers SUDBURY. Twelve Reformers ; four Tories. _ PLYMOUTH.. 'Twenty-eight Reformers;eight Tories. CAI NAavolv.—The contest for the Town Council was car ried on with extreme vigour on Saturday. The Liberal party have got in twelve in the large ward, but lost the six in the small ward by a small majority. It is reported that many of the Thry polling papers are informal. If so the Town Coun cil wilt be all Liberal men. The Tories have resorted to in famous coercion, by Mr. T. Assbeton Smith's agents, and others. BEAUMARIS.—The Liberal Town Council was elected on Saturday without opposition. PWLLIEY.LI.—There was no opposition to the Liberal Town Council, ;and the business was over in half du hour. I RtPoN...--On Thursday evening week, a meeting was held LINCOLN-SUNDAY. The long-looked for 26th of December is past, and to the Reformers it has proved a day of signal victory. In this city —one of the three great L's of corruption—Toryism, as the primordial substance of Municipal government, is defunct, and a sounder, more honourable, more independent principle is permanently established. The Tories made a complete party job of the election, and the result has been their utter discomfiture. The Liberal Society, a most influential and in creasing body, passed a resolution, on the motion of Mr. Northhouse, about a fortnight since, which was commu nicated to the Conservative Society, inviting the whole of the electors, without distinction to their political proles. sions, to a public meeting, then to take steps for elect ing the most eligible men on both sides. But to this fair and manly offer the Tories refused to accede, and in consequence, by a very novel mode of balloting, nine Liberals were selected as proper persons for candidates for the Bridge Ward ; who, being nominated by a majority, were to receive the support of all the advocates of liberal opinions. The same principle was adopted in the Minster Ward, and nine gentlemen selected. In the meantime the Tories nomi nated at a breath eighteen persons, five of whom were lawyers, and resorted to the most disgraceful trickery to effect their object. All however was useless, and though the secession of an ambitious individual from the Liberal side (who was dis appointed at not being in a majority at the ballot, and who endeavoured to sow dissension among the Reformers), seemed calculated to promote their ends, they got nothing . by it. Yesterday morning they employed two bands of music to parade the town, and they commenced very early to sound " See the conquering hero comes," but towards evening the tune was changed to " Oh, dear, what can the matter be," and the banners they had exhibited were withdrawn. They, however, were sanguine of getting in some of their party to the last, till some authentic information from the Town Clerk dissipated their hopes. The following are the gentlemen, all Liberals, who are returned : WARD. Mr. James Hill, merchant George Calder, tailor - S. Wetherell, tanner Com. Councilman Blyth, grocer. Edward Fouler, Esq. Mr. W. Rudgord, merchant E. J. Wilson, architect Dr. Beaty, M.D. Mr. W. Dawler, merchant WARD. Mr. H. Williams, solicitor G. Brooks, gentlemen John Turner, grocer W. Bedford, jun., gen tleman. The highest number of votes received by any gentleman was 464 : the lowest number for the successful Liberal can didates was 318 in the Minster Ward, and 354 in the Bridge Ward ; and the highest of the Conservative p.rty was 192 in the Minster, and 206 in the Bridge Ward. This towering majority is a good indication of the real feeling of the actually responsible inhabitants, and goes far to show that the freemen and the two-guinea system are the main support of Colonel Sibthorp as Member for the city. in the evening there was a large meeting of the Liberals at the City Arms Committee-room, when 317. E. B. Drury, in an admirable address, pointed out the folly of expecting too much at first from the gentlemen they had bestowed their confidence upon. The work of complete reformation must even now be a work of some time, but those who had been chosen to perform it would do it effectually. To-day the Tories are quite chop-fallen ; scarcely one is to be seen. PORTSMOUTH-SUNDAY. Arrived this morning the Nautilus store-brig, and the General Evans cutter, from the coast of Spain, the latter in six days' passage only, on two of which she was becalmed ; she left Santaner on the 21st instant, but brings no news. Colonel Arbuthnot and Major Fulke Greville had returned to Santander from St. Sebastian's, to the relief of which town they had gone tvith a small forcelt a steamer, and had effec tually succeeded in the object they had gallantly undertaken. St. Sebastian was in great danger of falling into the hands of the Carlists, until the arrival of their handful of men ; their presence inspired confidence in the inhabitants and small gar rison, and the Carlist forces retired very soon after the com mencement of their operations, and had gone to some distance. In consequence of the probability, however, of their coming back, from the great distance of the main body of the Queen's forces under Cordova, and Evans at Vittoria, it had been deemed prudent to move the whole of the British Legion to Villa Franca, which town had been reached without interrup tion. Money, the grand sinew of war, had begun to fall short of late ; but, by Mendizabal's directions, the privates and non-commissioned were punctually paid every day, though the officers had received no pay or allowances for more than two months. No movements of moment were expected to be made by either of the belligerents until the spring, the weather having been very severe, and the roads, such as they are, nearly impassable. The wind having come to the westward, we are in anxious expectation of the arrival of the American Pre sident's Speech on the opening of Congress, which might he expected to leave New York on the 10th instant. It is a matter of much interest here, as, in the event of a rupture between France and America, this port must become the depot for all the cargoes of American cotton required for the use of the Rouen manufactories. Our Town Council, under the New Corporation Bill, was elected bn Saturday last. Nothing could work better than the mode of voting, which is very closely allied to the Ballot—no confusion, no cabal, no questions, simply because there were no check-clerks, no lawyers, and no knowledge to the public of,how such burgess voted. It terminated entirely in favour of the liberal interest, there only being four Tories returned as Councillors, while the Reformers secured 38 ; we shall thus ensure a liberal magistracy. MACCLESFIELD-SUNDAY. This borough has nobly fought the fight. Only seven or eight Tories are returned to the new Council ; the others have all been " turned out," and we have about twenty-eight Liberals. We shall also nominate from among Reformers twelve v Idermen. The Tories may bespeak their political hearses in this borough. WARWICK. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) We cannot tell the exact result of the poll in this borough till to-morrow (Monday); but in the Lower Parish, where Lord Warwick's Castle and chief properties are situated, the Reformers carried the whole list of their candidates ! In the other ward, St. Mary', we believe we have carried 6 out of 12, which gives the Liberals, in the gross, 12 out of 1 s Conncillors. I believe this will be found to be accurate. The Teries used every possible exertion. BATH-SATURDAY. The Election of Town Councillors commenced this day with the ringing of the bells of the different churches, and firing of cannon at various parts of the city. The contest was a very spirited one, and of the Municipality which is divided into seven wards, and consisting of 2,250 votes, upwards of 2,000 polled. Thee-election terminated to the utter discomfi ture and destruction of the Tories, although backed up 14y the whole of the . old Corporation; the Orange parsons, and the Marquis of Bath Tory Magistrates. The Radical Reformers have elected 35 out of 421 This election has convinced the Tories that they w ill never be able to elect Colonel Daubeney, or any of their clique. It will gi ve a new tone to Bath, which has been ruled with an iron rod by the Tories for centuries. They were assisted to-day by a whole regiment of Army and Navy Half-pay Officers, which this city is celebrated for being infested with, and who used every intimidation over the industrious tradesmen. BOSTON-SUNDAY. The election of the New Town Council for this Bo rough terminated yesterday, in the total discomfiture of the ota Tory Corporation, by an overwhelming majority. Not one of them has been returned, notwithstanding, ever since the passing of the Bill for the Reform of Municipal Corporations, aware of their unpopularity, they have been unremitting in their exertions to secure their re-election. Thus does Boston furnish an example, which we hope will be extensively followed, of what Reformers, under the most discouraging circumstances, may accomplish by unity, activity ; and perseverance. (FROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT.) At Boston, Lincolnshire, where the revenues and power of the Corporation were large, and where Tory exclusion and domination were complete, the result of the election on Satur day is most triumphant for the cause of Reform, as eighteen Liberal Burgesses have bee❑ chosen to form the Council, and not one of the old Corporators, or Conservative party, have been elected. D 0 VER-SAT U RD AY. The election for the ,Town- Council under the Municipal Reform Bill came on to-day; and has been contested most ex traordinarily. It was generally supposed that it wtuld have been hard run, but certainly not to the extent that has proved to be the case. The poll was taken in four places, but will ,not be declared until Monday at two o'clock. The numbers are so very close, that until they are declared by the Mayor, it is hardly possible to state them with accuracy but we believe the Conservative party will carry all six in the Castle Ward, four out of six in the Pier Ward, and three out of six in the Town Ward, giving them a decided majority in the Council, and of course the election of the Mayor, Al dermen, Town Clerk, and other officers. It is said that the Liberals lost seats for the Castle and Pier Wards by only one vote each. The scrutiny in the Town Ward will be proceeded in on Monday at nine o'clock, and the numbers are expected to be very near indeed—considering that.in the three Wards nearly one thousand votes have been polled. It is highly to the credit of the town that during the excitement natural upon so severe a struggle, not a breach of the peace or any sort of tumult should have occurred, and that at the polling places the presiding Magistrates had votes cf thanks for the impartiality with which they had performed their duties. The Liberal party are unquestionably very much disappointed. They had fully expected to have returned the majority of the Council, .and it is said the Tory party have succeeded beyond their expectations. The truth is, that in so large a number of voters, and the uncertainty of many sea faring men being at home to poll, it was quite impossible in so very close a contest to make, a more accurate calculation. COMPLETE TRIUMPH OF THE REFORMERS AT HULL. Some considerable degree of interest has been excited, not, merely in the locality of the town, but in more distant p of the kingdom, as to how it would come out of the struggle for Municipal power. The corruptions of the old system were well exposed and circulated through the medium of the Par liamentary inquiry; whilst it was known that the old Corpo rztion had considerable influence, and the Reformers knew, to their cost, that the enemy arrayed against them was not an insignificant one. Hull had the distinguished honour, imme diately after the return of two liberal Members to the first re formed House of Commons, to set the example to neighbour ing- towns, by first petitiOning for a thorough Municipal Reform. The spirit of the inhabitants has been stimulated ever since then—the progress of public opinion has brought the ques tion home to every man. The Tories had loudly vaunted of their power to return a majority of the Council ; they had made all the preparations which they were enabled to com mand ; during their canvas threats and promises were not with- held ; and the result, so far as the various agents were able to collect, on Saturday night, after the close of the several polls, was, that not one Tory has been returned to the Council ; but that the inhabitants of Hull have confided their local govern ment to forty-two honest, staunch, upright Reformers. The following are the statements from the various booths in the wards, compiled with the greatest care—giving doubts, in most instances, to the Tories _ Wards. Reformers Tories Doubtful polled. polled. and Splits. Lowgate Market Place South My tou North Myton West Sculcsates .. ... 149 ' 132 East Sculcoates Holderness The Tories had boasted that they would carry the Ist, sth, 6th, and 7th wards ; the latter of these has proved the strongest for the Reformers. The only doubt is as to East and West Sculcoates, in the former; however, it is believed that the majority will be found more than five, as stated, and that the other one is quite safe. However, at the worst, only two or three Tories can creep in. As may be expected, the greatest joy has been diffused all over the town, for the Reformers feel that this is the last great battle they will have to fight, for that Toryism is utterly and for ever prostrated. • BRISTOL. (From the Second Edition of the Bristol Mercury.) CLOSE OF THE POLL.—We have found it to be utterly im possible to give any thing like an accurate statement of the numbers polled for the several candidates ; but we believe we shall not err in giving the following as , the result of the elec tion, as respects the two parties : Liberals. Tories. Bedminster 2 1 Bristol 5 4 Clifton 3 6 Redcliff District ... St. Augustine 0 6 St. James St. Michael St. Paul St. Philip and Jacob 3 0 Total 26 22 Of the above figures, those for the following Wards are certain ; BEDMINSTER—Messrs. Drake and Browne. DISTRICT—Messrs. J. Lunell, R. Ash, and T. R. Sanders. ST. JAMES—Messrs. Cunningham, Wayte, and Hall. ST. PAUL—Messrs. Guppy, Harwood, and More. ST. PHILIP AND JACOB—Messrs. Harris, E. B. Fripp, and W. Herapath. Of the doubtful figures, we may remark, that some of the more knowing of the Tory party have been heard to express their doubts since the close of the poi!, of their having secured more than two of their party in the Bristol Ward, and that Messrs. Pinney and Bright, reputed Whigs, are classed among the Tories in the Ward of St. Augustine. The number of Liberals, as given in the Ward of Redcliff, we believe to lie correct, though from the poll running close, it is impossible to particularize them by name. On the whole, we believe, when the official declaration is made, it will be kund that the Libe ral party will stand in a position fully equal to that assigned to it in the above table. We should have been happy if we could have furnished our readers with a more definite statement ; the arrangements, however, resolved on by the Mayor, utterly preclude the pot sibility of a more accurate one appearing, if these arrange ments be adhered to, until Monday morning. WIGAN.. I have great pleasure in intbrmiug you that our election of Councillors this day has ended decidedly in favour of the Re form interest. We have five wards, and six Councillors in each ward. In four of the wards the Reformers return the whole number of Councillors by decided majorities, and in the fifth they will return either two or three. The Tories, there fore, will not return above three or four at the most. The re sult of the election will not be officially announced before Monday. HULL-SATURDAY. Sir—Knowing that you take a lively interest in the Re formers of our good town, I have much pleastre. to inform you, that our Municipal Election has proved to the Tories a complete defeat, after great boasting on their part. The Mayor will not declare the election until two o'clock on Mon.. day, consequently the exact nnmbers, as declared by him, will not be known until that time. We had a meeting last night of the Chairmen and Ward Committees, and ,we can posi tively state what follows to be in substance correct, and we hope more in numbers than I state. The following is the ma jority in each Ward : Wards. Voters. 1. Lowgate 2. Market-place 3. South Myton ... 153 4. North ditto 5. East Sculcoates, giving them all the doubtful and divided 6. Holderness Division . . 73 • 7. West Sculcoates, 149 Radicals, 132 Tdries, and 31 divided ; and we hope here a majority. I hope this will convince our opponents that they arc now completely done up. I have much pleasure to inform you that we have got ano ther of our fishing-ships, the Harmony, and brings an account of the loss of the Dordon, crew and provisions saved, and hopes that more of the vessels will get out. STOCKPORT. 'ln our borough we had to return forty-two Councilors, and fourteen Aldermen. The poll has been most glorious. Ido not believe that above four, at the utmost, of the Tories have been chosen; and, indeed, it is not certain that there is one. The beer barrels and brandy bottles were in vain applied by the Tories. 'We did not " treat ;" and our men freely and purely voted. The soldiers are under arms, and the town might be supposed to be besieged, but all is quiet and peace able. Our electors are sober, though overjoyed. I will send you the polls on Monday. In Congleton our friends write that all is safe for the Reform cause. ST. ALBANS. It is expected that the Verulam influence has successfully carried the whole Tory list of candidates in this borough. CARNARVON-SA.TURDAY. It is with some surprise that the Reformers of Carnarvon have read in your really liberal paper, paragraphs reflecting on Lord Newborough and Col. Macgregor, for their active interference on behalf of the Independent or Reform cause, in the electiOn of Town Councillors for this Borough. From whatever source the information has been gleaned, can truly characterise it, as being made either in utter igno rance or wilful misrepresentation of the facts of the case, and of the motives and principles that have stimulated those individuals in the constitutional exercise of their duties, both having a stake in the borough, and the last being a Burgess. The Carnarvon Municipal Election is in reality one of political parties ; for this we have to thank the Tories and not the Reformers. It is whether the borough shall be prostrated at the feet of that notorious Tory, Mr. Thomas Assbeton Smith ; or the Burgesses be left to the independent exer cise of their Municipal and Parliamentary s uffrages. That gentleman, who possesses great property i n the . neighbour hood, has long attempted to enslave the borough, and a specimen ()Ibis practices was pretty graphically detailed be- . fore the Intimidation and Coercion Committee, during the last Session. of Parliament, by Dr. Owen Owen Roberts, a distinguished and influential • Reformer; and who has ir cuffed the would-be-autocrats' ceaseless hatred by the vigour k, .2'22 SAIITHFIEI; The supply to this day's market dull, at the following PRICES PER STONE OF BLI D MARKET. t was not great, and the trade Wag .

Wrigles worth, merchant MINSTER aad success with which he has hitherto, with .the aid, of hc_ nest hearts, foiled him in every such attempt. The Corporation of Carnarvon has hitherto been a close Corporation, but has been in the hands of the Reformers. The New Municipal Constitution Act has led to Mr. Assheton Smith making one other oppressive and reckles attempt, through his agents and dependents, to obtain a step pia f,-stone to that political influence, of Which we as 'yet have been able to deprive him, by constituting; the Town Council of his creatures and adherents. . The Reforming party, wishful to carry the purposes Of the Municipal Reform Act into full- and complete were anxious that the Town Council should be compoised of influential men of all parties, such as were most inte rested in promoting the real interests of the borough. For end all party 'feeling was wished to be put an end to, and an accommodation was proposed. Lord Newborougl, as a Nobleman posiessed of cons:Affable property in and near .the borough, and of independent principles, on solici tation, came forward in the capacity of. mediator, but on the principle that the independence of the burgesses should be re served sacred, and no political patron's views and purposes encouraged. His Lordship's friendly and disinterested inter ference was refused, and that in the most contemptuous man ner, by the Tory party, at the instigation of Mr. Assheton Smith's agents ; and that, but not to then, did he with, his usual decision of character, declare unreservedly for the Reform party, emphatically saying, " that as the party anxious for peace and fair pla could not have it they - 'must be prepared for war." 'The Reformers immediately had. his cordial co-operation, and all the benefit that could result from his active interference ' • and which was the more ef fective from the sympathy of political and personal feeling between them and his Lordship. This step, so unexye2ted by the Tories, who had at least calculated on his Lordship's neutrality, excited their bitterest rancour, and the.' immediately assailed him with the most ribald abuse; and•none were more active in levelling at him the most pointed and undeserved insults, than the agents and personal depend nits of Mr. Assheton Smith. In the contest the Tories have resorted, more than ever, to all the fierceness of party rancour, and of coercion, inti midation and misrepresentation : the effects of the latter seem even to have reached you, or you would not have so assailed tha adherents of the Liberal party for setting them selves against the unconstitutional views of as inveterate an oligarch as any the' Carlton Club can furnish. That contest has ended in the complete triumph of the Re formers. The Constitution, the law, and independence, have again defeated Toryism. The battle was - nobly fought and hardly won. Mr. Assheton placed the issue on his enmity to Doctor Owen Owen Roberts, thus making the affair personal as well as political ; and his rank, his wealth, and his power, have shrunk before the honesty and public principle of the latter. The Reformers have at least two-thirds of the Town Council, and probably the whole : the Alderman and Mayor will be in their interest also as a matter of course. With respect to Lord Newborough's interference, I defy any one with truth to charge him 'with having acted impro perly, unconstitutionally, oppressively, or coercively. !laving taken an ardent interest in the contest, he has conducted him self as a freeman among freemen ; and in strict consistency with Reform principles, has used no influence but such as his personal character and his political independence have 'given him. His esteemed coadjutor, Colonel Macgregor, alas! has not lived to sec another triumph of the cause he so dearly loved. A sincere and devoted Reformer, who had stood bythe Reform cause in the most trying times. and one who (to use his own expressive language) had '° rallied the Reformers against their opponents, like his own Highland clans—shoulder to shoul der ;"—he entered into this contest with all his noble and elm racteristiC chivalry : he, one of the most intrepid of soldiers, and who had braved death in one hundred battles, met him in this bloodless struggle—he was suddenly cut off when in the bosom of his family, and is gone to his rest, leaving the re membrance of his virtues to animate us in future struggles. No man had more of the amor patrice—none by the Reformers of North .Wales will be more regretted. I trust to your love of fair play towards the Reform cause. to insert this vindication in your next Journal, Your's, &c., A CARNARVON REFORMER. THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. There were moderate arrivals of most kinds of Grain to our mar ket-last week, and a fair return of Flour. The trade throughout the week showed very little inclination to improve, and the buyers purchased sparingly. This morning the fresh supply is not large, and the trade dull. For the finest samples of Wheat the factors: fully obtained last Monday's terms; other kinds are very difficult to quit. Good Malting Barley has met a steady sale, but thin par cels are lower in value. Beans continue unvaried. Pease as last noted. The Oat trade is not so lively as of late, but prices have not declined.
