LIVERPOOL ELECTION. The following is the Speech of the Right Hon. George Canning, atter haviug been chaired, on Thursday, March 16, 1820 : " Gentlemen—Upon this the fourth occasion en which you have done me the honour to re turn me as your Representative to Parliament,. conferring upon me thereby the highest honour and the dearest trust which any body of men can confer• upon an individual, I can only return the same ackuowledgments, in nearly the same terms which I have employed thrice before. Senti- Vents in their nature invariable, could only lose their force by any attempt at variety in the ex ression of them. Gentlemen, I most cordially. hank you for this new proof of your confidence .end kindness. Gentlemen, although the victory which has .this time been achieved hardly deserves that name, end certainly diA not appear to me to merit the splendour of the triumph with which it has been this day celebrated, I yielded my own individual judgment, in that respect, to the consideration, that in such a celebration there is nothing of a personal triumph. In following the chair in which 1 have hem borne, and accompanying its progress with the expressions of your exultation and good will, I well know, that it was not to the individual, but to your own principles, embodied and represented in him, that you rendered a vo statary homage. " Get:denten, the elections in swhich 1 s have had the honour to he chosen by you are of two distinct characters. lu the first and in the third of them, you have had real and vigorous combats •to sustain ; you have had to repel the attempt to impose tip') you Representatives, the choice of %hum would have inferred a change in political sentiments, and an abandonment of constitutional pinciples. In that of 1816, and in that of the resew day, your object loot been not so much to repel any such serious danger, as to maintain, with a high hand, the ascendancy which you al teady enjoyed. " Ott the pre‘ettt occasion, indeed, the pre sumption of your antagonists appears R, have been equalled only by the weakness tvith which they Came into the field ; and in proportion a• their means of 41.1CCeSS were diutittished. they seem to have aimed at the achievement of greater objects. k‘'hether it %vas that they imagined their princi- plcs of reform to have wade greater progress in Liverpool than in any oilier part of the country I cantieot say. 11,it it wds, surely, no small pre suniption, especially on the part of those who are continually (It claiming against the undue inter ference of po,vvrf ttl indi% idnals, and against the servile snit ender of the freedom of elcction it wesA uu Sai.+ll prellltllptic)ll, I say, for any such party to rhiult that they wilt one hand gra.p t is trpresentation of Liverpool, and with 'he other indicate the representative of the county. " Gentlemen, the process by which this two fold operation was to be brought about was one of a curious kind. .It reminds me of what 1 have read in some of the political parophlets of, I be lieve, the reign of Queen Ann, of an empiric, who not liking to sound his awn praises, but wishing them tube sounded, Lit upon a notable expedient of obtaining the benefi:, without incurring the reproa‘h of such a Proclamation. A youth pre ceded him in do: crowd, cryOrg, with a loud voice, " My father eons all sorts of diseases." — The Doctor matched behind him, with a sedate and solemn step, simply declaring, " The youth says true." Now Colonel Williams appears to have acted, on our hustings, the part of the in genious youth, wt en he proposed Dr. Crompton as a healer of all the diseases of the political con- Vitiation. Dr. Cruicptou followed, with a mo dest and measured pace, not singing his own praises, but admitting the truth of the praises which had been sting. " But one good tarn deserves another ; and the operation in hand was, as 1 have described it, twofold. rhe peculiar inducement held out to you to receive Dr. Crompton as your Represen tative was, that he was in possession of some great specific, which would enable him to restore peace to the commOnity, and to heal the differ ences by which the nation is unfortunately dis tracted. What this panacea was we could never extract from the Doctor on the hustings. Thu,' notch only we could learn, that it was some ca balistic name which he was to pronounce on the hustings at Lancaster, which would still the po pular storm, and diffuse liberty and contentment throughout the country. Well, when the time arrived, and Dr. Crompton departed for Lancas ter, we found that the scene, exhibited a few days before at Liverpool, was to he acted over again at the county town, with a change only in the order of the dramatis persouz. Dr.Crompton was now to he herald of the praises of his proposer ; and the name of Williams, pronounced in the Shire Hall, was the charm by which the county was to be lulled into peace and exalted in:o glory. Colonel Williams's election fur the County wits the pre scription by which all diseases were to be healed. Pity that the county should reject the dose! but natural encsogh that, after the rejection, you should, upon his return to you, dismiss the Doctor ! " Gentlemen, this, though a ludicrous proceed ing enough, is, after all, but a fair specimen of that easy confidence with which those who preach . the doctrines of indefinite reform already look on their triumph as secure, and count on the people of England as their prey. In a town containing thousands of freemen and tens of thousands of in habitants ; in a county containing tens of thou sands of freeholders and hundreds of thousandirof inhabitants, is it not almost incredible to any person, not a Radical Reformer, that two men (however individually respectable), without either that station, that property, or that influence, na tural or acquired, which could give authority to their recommendation among a vestry of their fel low-citizens, should have cherished the prepos terous design of reciprocally complimenting each other into the representation,of the county and of the town ? " 1 have said, Gentlemen, this was only a spe cimen, and no unfair one, of the confidence with which, if not now, some short four months ago, persons professing principles such as are professed by those two worthy brother Candidates, each, in his turn, the other's nominator and nominees reckoned on this fair land of Litgland as at their feet, and almost in their clutches. Nor did' they reason far amiss ; for, depend upon it, if ever their schemes of unlimited suffrage and annual elections should find that favour in the eyes of the nation, which the misled and inflamed judgment of a part—a small part, 1 trust—of the nation appeared ready to bestow upon them, the progress would not be long, through the storms of popular commotion, to that state of things to which po polar commotions always tend, and in which they. are filially merged. and extinguished—the arbi trary dictatorship of unfit and overweening indi viduals. These sagacious enthusiasts may, in their sanguineness, have a little anticipated the time ; they may have a little shortened the course by which such results would be arrived at from Inch beginnings ; but let the day come when a change in the constitution of Parliament, upon th• principles of the Reformers, shall be effected, and the day will not be far off when Englaud may resign—l will not say to a Williams or a Cromp ton, but to some name quite as fitted to the sta tion—the supreme direction of her destinies. This, Gentlemen, is not the language of theory—it is the doctrine of experience. The history of your own country is sufficient to teach it to you, without looking abroad for wore pregnant and still more terrible exaniplss. " Gentlemen,.under one or other of the classes into which I have divided our past Elections every future contest will necessarily fall. It will arise either from the attempt of your antagonists to, impose upon you a choice implying the adoption of principles which you disclaim, or from the at tempt, equally unsuccessful, I truism, to deter you from giving effect, by such a choice as you have this day made, to the principles which you cherish and approve. In the one case you will have, as in 1812 and io 1818, occasion for all your re sources of activity and zeal—in the other fur all your firmness and perseverance. Meantime, and to prepare you for these me ditated attacks, you will hear daily enough of all that is amiss in the State. Hear, and judge ; hut before you decide, weigh well the characters and qualifications of those who preach changes to you, and who recommend themselves as the persons to operate them; and ‘‘cl what it is you - lave THE SUN. ,104 QUI% UteEl66 FALSUM AtIVEAT ? LONDON, TUESDAY, MARCH 21, 1820. We received this morning the Paris Papers of Saturday last. The Chamber of Peers assembled on Friday, when the Minister of the Interior pre sented the projet respecting individual liberty as adopted by the Chamber of Deputies. The projet was referred to the Bureaux, and the next day the Chamber were either to com mence the discussion, or refer it to a Special Committee. The Chamber of Deputies, after go ing through some ordinary business, adjourned till Monday. These Papers contain the follow lowing news from Spain :-- (From Mc Moni(cur.) BOURDBAIII, MARCH 14.—We were led into an error respecting an important circumstance, relative to the resolu►ion adopted by his Catholic Majesty, Ferdinand VII., to accept the Constitu tion of the Cortes. The King was not at the Palace of Aranjuez, but at his Palace at Madrid. His Majesty decided of his own motion, and ac cording to the information which be had received respecting the gmetal situation of the Kingdom, and not in consequence of the presence of a tumultuous mob. It was not till after the determination of the King was known in the City that the people flocked around the Palace, shouting Long live the King r Long live the Constitution !' and Long live Religion P The King spewed himself twice to the people, and in consequence of his presence the acclamations and enthusiastn were redoubled. " In Arragon, the Constitution was proclaim ed on the. sth March. The Captain• General, the Marquess de Laras, continues in the exercise of his functions. Amongst the functionaries who have been employed by the Governor of the Kingdom of Arragon, may be ci!ed Don -- Garay, formerly Minister of Finance of his Ca tholic Majesty. '• The priucipality of Asturias, and the City of Segovia appear to have followed the same course. These events, which occurred in the Provinces previous to the Bth March, produced the deter mination of the King.•—(Memorial Bordelais ) (From the Journal de Paris.) " A Russian Courier, who left Madrid the 9th inst. has brought fresh details respectirg the af fairs of Spain. It is stated, that the King him self announced to the Grand Inquisitor, and to the Council of Castile, that the new Constitution abrogated their functions. It is wider!, that seve r 4 prisoners, amongst others the Count sly Mon 11.11 been Set at litielty, anti tlist tti the dr• p3rture of the Coot ier there was a talk of a gene* rai amnesty. " It appears that the Count de I'Abisbal sell proclaimed ti►e Constitution its the Town of °calla., an►! it was currently reported that GC& neral Frere 144 dune ale tante in his corp. d'arinee. " The Constitution has been proclaimed at Sa' ragossa and Carthagena, as r‘ell as at Segovia' In the latter City, a Canon 'AID) had the itripro denee to tear down one of the notices posted (IP on the occasion, was, it it said, massacred by 1 " people. " Mina, who assumes the title of Genera!•iv' Chief of the Constitutional National Army of the North, published, on the 2,1 March, at 5 0 Estevan, a very hostile Proclamation against thg Kitig of Spain ; but all the other Insurrectionad Chiefs had not omitted, in claiming the Constitu" tion of the Cortes, to testify the greatest respeJ for the King, and after the determination of had Catholic Majesty it may be hoped that this gr='► t crisis will terminate without any disaster. (From 7'lle Journal des Deliais.) The prisons of the inquisition, as well the others in Spain, have been opened, and tb State Prisoners released. " The Deputy Mune Torrero, one of tt ig authors of the Constitution, now at Curuo°' has been appointed a Member of the Governing° of that Province. (The above Journal gives 3,lina's Floclsev tion, but as it is dated several days before the s c° ceptance of the Constitution by the King, it I° , inapplicable to the present state of affairs, and al no interest.) " PAnts, MARC!! IB.—The King yestertial transacted business with the Minister of the W terior, and afterwards took an airing. , " Letters from Italy state, that the Queen Englund, who was still at Rome, was every Of expected at her villa at Pesaro, where her Msje ty proposed to remain some time. It is said the triul of Louvel will take 0'44 13 the course of next we,k. " The King gave a ptivate audience yester-'l4 .o the Count de Saint Aulaire. FIVE PER CENTS. Shut price Friday, Ex.

" Recently emerged from a complicated and exhausting, though most glotious as well as ne cessary war, which occupied all our attention and engrossed all our anxiety, our commerce is, by slow degrees, regaining those channels from which war had diverted it, but in which, I trust, it will ere long flow as abundantly as ever. The public mind is nut yet recovered flout the agitation of mighty transactions and revolutions, nor settled down to the calm pursuits of peace. In this state of things, it is peculiarly our duty and our inte rest to consider how we shall most securely re tain and improve the practical advantages which we enjoy, rather than to go to sea on a wild ad venture in search of more perfect theories of [ln man society and government, at the risk of all the untold evils to which that search is exposed. If we can but preserve unimpaired the blessings which the British Constitution has hitherto im parted to successive generations, if we can but be con , ented to uphold the institutions which our forefathers have bequeathed to us, we shall have nothing to reproach ourselves with, and nothing to envy in any other nation of the world. Gentlemen, these are your principles and they are mine. To assume that, in replacing me in the situation in which I stand, you have marked your partiality to an individual, would be to take a narrow and selfish view of the issue of the contest.
