This assertion has been s trenuously contradicted by The Morning Post, of which it takes no notice, but perseveres iu "meting The Courier, not with proof or argu ment, but qtith abuse and affected contempt, — }tut why, as The Times is not sparing of scurri lity against its competitors in general, why is it !q singollrly caw ions respecting The Morning Post, *Welt has long been understood to be favoured With the peculiar confidence of Government ?

OF FERAL ELECTION. CITY OF LONDON ELECTION.-SEVENTII AND LAST DAT. The several CAndidates were this morning at heir posts at an enily hour, and every part of he City presented a total suspension of all busi- tress, which seemed merged into the " dreadful note of preparation " for the finishing this con flict, as important in its consequences to the adverse parties, as to the constitutional sup potter,. of the Government. The greatest anxiety pervaded the countenance of every Ci tizen, and not less so that of the Candidates themselves. Soon after nine o'clock crowds of Liverymen were seen flocking towards Guild hall, and vehicles of every sort were in motion in all directions, to bring the out-resident Li very to the poll. The several Committees were employed in marshalling those that were brought in, and flags, squibs, and crackers were to be met in all quarters. By the following state of the poll at half-past one, some idea may be formed as to the result : Mr. Wilson Alderman Wood 5136 Sir William Curtis 4760 The Lord Mayor 4207 5160 Alderman Waithman . . 3BBl Alderman Thorp It was intimated in the Hall, a quarter before 'one o'clock, that Mr. Aldermau THORP bad te linquished the poll in favour of Alderman WAITE'. NUN. NVEthIINSTER ELECTION—FIFTH DAY. The business of this day was renewed by the partizans of the Candidates with unabated zeal. Mr. 30.4t3 RURIDETT, sad several others of the most partieUlsr friends of the Baronet, were in the. field at an early hour, and Bands of Electioneering Music were stationed at seve ral public-houses Westminster, to enliven the drunken march ro the roll. The friends of Mr. Lams were by no means behind their opponents in activity ; notwithstanding which, it will be observed that the numbers polled by no means evinces that there is a very great readi ness in the Electors coming forward.

The following statement of the attacks upon some small parties of the Police stationed in the County of Galway, by large bodies of the Rib bonmen, is front a private source, and seems to be nriore accurate than what has already appeared respecting the same transaction's. The brutality of those rnffians heart the stamp of the most de based and degraded state of human nature " A party of Major Pendleton's Police haring left their head-quarters at Castlegar, with the intention of going to Church at Aghascra, (one mile distant,) were informed, on their arrival, that an illegal notice war posted 'on the Chapel, when one of them proceeded to tear it down. This was a signal to the Ribbonnien for an attack, which they imme diately commenced with stones and pitchforks: and the Police being but partly armed with side arms, suffered severely— twelve being dangerously wounded, and one actually thrown over the bridge. The alarm being given, an arnred party ar rived to their assistance, when one of the villains most forward in the business was shot dead, several wounded, and the rest driven out of the town. This partial success of the disaffected wretches emboldened them to further depredations, and they assembled in vast Insiltitudes, armed, and having met an escort party of Your Police, they fired on them, and wounded The rest bring hardly' pressed, were obliged to retreat, leav ing their companion behind, when be was barbarously mur dered, his head being nearly severed by a scythe, They then surrounded (their numbers still increasing) the town of Kit connel, occupied by a party of eight Policemen, and, about o'clock at night, they entered it in three divisions. They now demanded some prisoners confined in the Police Office, which was complied with, in tropes of pacifying them.—far, however, from having thiseffect, a desperate attack was imme diately commenced, and this gallant little hand, worthy of Thermopyla, sustained it until four o'clock in the morning, when they succeeded in compelling the rebels to sheer off. So desperate were the assailants, that they actually mounted to the roof (fortunately a slated one), and endeavoured to enter TV - stripping off the slates; but the spirited fire from off the Tittle garrison, foiled them in every attempt—not one of the right wereinjured, one only being hit on the belt; hut the slaughter must have been great on the other side. Amongst those killed, was one of the prisoners that had been given up, named Coyle." On Sunday last, the Right Hon. William Ve sey Fitzgerald went to Crusheen, accompanied by William Butler, Esq. and, after the Congrega tion bad came out of the Chapel, he addressed them on the dangerous consequences of the late outrages which have disgraced this and the neigh bouring County, observing, that, as long as they continued obedient to the laws, they would find in him a friend, always ready to assist and pro tect them ; but that, if they, or any of them, were found joining themselves to the wretches denominated Ribbonmen, he would bring them to that punishment which their crimes so jsastly me rited. The reception which the Right Hon. Gentleman met was truly flattering ; after the loudest acclamation-and applause at the observa tions he made, the assembly unanimously declared their determination to resist all attempts made to mislead them, The Ennis Yeomanry were after wards drawn up at the Parade, by their Captain, the Right Hon. William Vesey Fitzgerald, and addressed by Robert Kean ; Esq., of Hermitage, who told them that the reason of their asientbling was, to know if they were willing to retain their anus as heretofore, and defend them if necessary, Having answered in the affirmative, they were formed into a square, and addressed at some length by their Captain. His speech breathed a spirit of loyalty, awl of attachment and regard to the King and Constitution. And three enthu siastic cheers was the soul-enlivening approval of his address.—(Clare Journal ) Last week, parties of Ribbonmen, in great numbers, front the County of Galway, visited the laruis of Coolrea, near Scariff, and swore all the tenantry thereon. The oath is, that the per• 'Son taking it does not know any of those present, that he never will swear against a Ribbonmen be fore Judge or Jury, and that he shall be ready to proceed with them when called upon. Several of the persons sworn have given information to the neighbouring Magistrates, which is a very neces sary act, and ought to be followed by every one who may be compelled to submit to such illegal oaths.

ITALY. - - PISA, Fen, 16.—Having wriven to you sib lately I should nut again have taken up my pen, ' were it not to give you some account of an unex pected visit with which this city has been honoured from her Royal Highness the Princesi of WALES. She arrived at Leghorn on the 9111 or 10th in stant, and proposed honouring that place with her presence for at least a fortnight, but the un expected intelligence of the King's lamentea death, had determined her to recommence her journey immediately ; Rome was spoken of as the place of her destination, but on her arrival here, or rather when she left this place, she took a northern direction, and, consequently, proceed ed through the little State of Locca. Yesterday morning, at ten o'clock, she alighted at a Palace on the Arno, which bad been previously engaged for her. Report acid she osme to breakfast with Madame Felice, an American Lady, the widow of a Roman Gentleman ; but the latter only gave up her habitation to the Royal and Illustrious traveller. A Guard of Honour was placed at tier door, and the Archbishop sent the state car riage to be in attendance, as long as this high personage remained in the city. She made use of it to visit the Cathedral, Baptistry, and Campa nelli, and passed some time in the Campo Santo, attended by a fierce; looking man, with enormous mustachios, and a child. The whole group were in the deepest mourning. About one o'clock she again set out in an English barouche, accompa nied by three smaller carriages, covered with lug.. gage, and &Heil with attendants. She was to ar rive the same night at Massa, and the reason stated for her taking this route, is the desire she has of seeing the extensive marble quarries at Carara and its vicinity. SCOi'LAND. RIOT IN ROSS-SHIRE. Of this distressing circumstance no farther par• iculars have reached us than are contained in the annexed letter : [Extract of a 'Letter front Ross-shire.] " We have all been agitated by a most unplea sant business, which took place yesterday. The scene took place on a part of Mr. Mow() of No. var's property, called Cu!rain, near Gladfield. " The object ..of the Sheriff going was to see his officers perform th e i r d uty of executing the summons, which was to warn the people irons - their farms. As they had before resisted, the Sheriff was obliged to take with him a consider able force, in order to carry ;he business into ef fect. About fifty specia.l constables were sworn in, and a party of about twenty...five militiamen accompanied them. " this force proved very inadequate, and a scene took glace truly horrible, in which thirteen of the Sheriff's party were wounded, and of these one had his skull fractured by a stone, which hit him in the forehead. The Sheriff was in immi nent danger. lie was hit by three stones, one of which cut bil hat. He went amongst the people, thinking to soften them by reasoning, but it was all in vain. They called out to him, that be used to be on the side of mercy ; that they thought he would protect them, but that be now came to op press them like the rest. The mob appeared as if raving mad, and those who first attacked seem ed furious, and were chiefly worm's. The men were drawn up on a height, and had taken quite military position behind a wall, with their fire arms in readiness. There were about two hundred armed."---(Edinburgh Courant, March 11,) Chascovi, Almtcn 9. Yesterday, passed through this town, from Edinburgh, under the escort of Daniel Hamilton, Esq.
