Had he been celebrated by his talents in the field, be could not add to the laurels that crowned the brow of the Duke a Wel lington. What then could he do when he was nothing more than an ancient Chancellor of the Exchequer—( A laugh)— by that ho meant a well-meaning Chancellor of the Exchequer. He had been in correspondence with the Duke of Wellington on subjects connected with home and foreign matters, and he had never seen sounder views of finance and commerce than those of his Grace.—( Cheers.) This was not only his opinion, but, on one occasion he had commnnicated a letter of his Grace to the Governor of the Bank of England respecting financial matters, and the Governor expressed his astonishment at its extreme profoundness.—( Cheers.) But what ought to recom - mend his Grace above all things to the county of Kent was the way (and they had an opportunity of seeing it) his Grace ma naged the poor of his own neighbourhood,how he improved their condition, and brought forward at the same time, the resources of the country. He had one word or two to say about the Noble Duke's colleague. He was happy to say that he had known Sir Robert Peel at an early age ; that he had sat in the Cabinet with the Right Hon. Baronet when these talents were matured, and that from him also the country might hope for every advantage that cold be expected from sound judg ment, moderate principles and experience.—( Hear, hear. ) The Right Hon. Baronet's letter to his constituents was a proof of this—it was an address that ought to be read by every well-wisher of his country, and the principles it contained ought to be looked upon as a rallying point.—( Cheers. With the permission of the Noble Chairman, lie begged, therefore, to propose the health of the Duke of Wellington. The toast was received with loud cheering that lasted seve ral minutes.

If the provisions of the Bill were good, he considered they were safer in the hands of men who said they would abide by them, and not safe in the hands of my Lord Durham, who said they required alteration.—( Hear, hear.) On these grounds he should recommend the voters to require their re presentatives to vote in opposition to the Radical candidates who opposed the Bill. The Noble Lord, in alluding to Church reform, said his remarks on that subject would, probably, not have the same weight as before, from the circumstances of his having lately become officially connected with the Govern ment.—( Hear hear, and loud cheering.)

They next feel it necessary to guard-all persons against a suppo sition that their Brandy is susceptible of improvement. From the first day that it Mas brought to public notice, it has remained the same—unimproved and unimprovable. The perfection of its qua lity has the sanction of the most eminent Chemists (whose Testi monials are already before the public), after minute analysis; and it has, EXCLUSIVELY, had the recommendation of numerous Medical men of the highest rank, resting upon a practical know ledge of its merits. And lastly. it is most essential to observe that the only Patent Right for making Brandy on French principles, is that obtained by themselves.

Sir EomuND FILMER rose to propose the healths of the Earl of Winchilsea and House of Peers. The toast was then drunk with great acclamation. The Earl of WiNcrimsEA rose to return thanks. There were three powers in the State which balanced one another, lot but one power go, hut one balance be lost, and all were lone. He hoped now, however, that the balance of the Con stitution was not so far destroyed but that when Parliament was dissolved the country would return such a Parliament as would save the Constitution.—( Hear.) The Reform Bill was now the law of the land, and he would support it. It was a foulmouthed slander to say the Tories wished to destroy the Reform Bill—No ! all they wished was to make it as useful as possible to the country. He belonged to no party—his country was the party he belonged to, and he now congratula ted them that they had a Government composed of honest men. He felt confident that every man in the country would support that Government—they- were placed in unexampled difficul ties, and the Constitutional Whig and Tory should rally round the throne, and support it in the exercise of its rights and pre rogatives.—( I lear. ) To these several points, J. T. BETTS and Co. crave the atten tion of all those to whom the possession of a pure and perfect spirit is a consideration ; and if due regard be had to these matters, the numerous impositions brought forward must be speedily exploded : since the success of the Impostors can only be in the ratio that they may succeed in misleading the public.

A GRAMMAR of the GERMAN LAN. GUAGE. TO THE ELECTORS OF COLCHESTER. IGENTLEMEN, HAVE canvassed your entire body with the mi nutest care, and have received the most unetpliooo, - .11 promises r'f support fr om a ma j or i ty o f the registered electors, embracing of Undivided votes well nigh one third of your entire number (1,100 ; et such is the compactness of the confederacy formed against me y the enem i es of all reform, and the consequent crossing tt votes, that an adequate number can only be secured by sacrifices of Which in past t i mes I have made too many. Thus circumstanced, It becomes my duty to announce that I am no longer a candidate for , the renewal of our political relations, if my estimation of you hi tentions is too timid, the con - teflon is in your hands. I have never con( aled my aversion to the Ballot, as a process Itufa.rourable to the integrity of personal character—but we must, deal with men and things as we find them, and until they are mate rially improved, I avow myself a reluctant convert to the eoiiViction that there is no security against the oppression and cowardly me naces of the higher elioses, but in tlie protection which secresy tlifords. Under the guardianship of the Ballot, my return would be pre-eminently triumphant. But this is not the only change Which must precede good goverament. The House of Con:mons is indeed reformed, but even there ; to render the representative system perfect, Parliaments must be sho"ter in legrt duration, and tne constituent body materially enlarged. Yet even all this will avail little while the House of Peers remains as it is. The struggle ssiow openi ng , i nvo l v i ng th i s problem, whether the People, as`the source of political power, shall govern themselves through their freely chosen organs, or wheiher this great nation is to live and Thove and have its being at the capricious will of an hereditary Qigarchy. Be assured There is no alternative between a Ile:orineil Uouse of Peers and a revolutioa. In that struggle, come when it may, and in whatever shape. I sl-all stand, and, if need be, fa'l with Thy ord er — t h e people. The King ' s Ministers are the avowed creatures of this hereditary usurpation, and your contemplated representatives are the appropriate abettors of their designs. Whatever changes await our country, you will have no just cause of complaint ; for you do not sin without knowledge. I challenge any one of your body to select a single tnea.ureof reform ; either in church or state, which has not received from my opponents, Sir Henry Smyth and Mr. Ilk:hard Sanderson, (one of whom is, and the ot'Aer has been, your repr esentative,) all the opposition a silent vote can give. It may be some comfort to the champions of corruption to know that I am .Chiefly ind e bt e d f or t h e present opposition, to the galling motion I telt it my duty to make for a revision of the infamous list of pen sioners. That motion annoyed the Court, and enclange-ed a Cabinet Who were protected f..om defeat by the artful intervention of men who now ma d e up t h e Ki ng ' s Government —Mr. Sanderson, by his ,a v °te, swelling the inglorious majority. tioln retiritT, from your service, after an a nx io us an d cos tly connec of more than t wen ty y ears , I can recor d w i t h prou d srt i s f act i on the cheering fact, that I have never uttered a sentiment nor given a v ote which, upon reflection, I desire to retract. Having passed m y youth in your tn, and the meridian of m 4 ° in your service, it was the first desir ow e of my heart to have ended I lly days as your Representative ; but it is ordered otherwise, and I am content and grateful. That peace may abide within your ancient walls, and happiness be the lot of you all, is the ardent prayer of, Your faithful friend and servant, Colchester, Dec. 18, 1834. D. W. HARVEY. '0 THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE SOUTHERN DIVISION OF THE COUNTY OF LEI CESTER. TGENTLEMEN, HE Dissolution of Parliament being daily ex pected, I feel called upon, as one of your present Rpresen tatives, to announce my intentions with reference to that event; Particularly as a Gentleman has declared himself a Candidate for tour Representation, in the performance of what he conceives to an absolute duty both to this County and the Country at large. I also, Gentlemen, conceive that I have an absolute duty to per form of the same description. I have considered it my duty in the first place, to ascertain whether the Gentlemen whose invitation rad first d rawn me f rom pr i vate lif e, would be disposed to claim the e enewal of my humble services. Having received the most un equivocal expression of their wishes on that subject, I feel bound to maintain the honourable position of a Candidate for your suffrages, t ° Which I am thus called for the second time, with all the energy Which I am capable. You are told that the question for your decision is, whether the C onstitution in Church and State is to stand or fall—No, Gentle f4eu, this is not the question—it is whether those necessary Re orrn shall be carried into full effect, or suddenly arrested, without hich th e I nst i tut i ons o f t h e C ountry are not only inefficient for heir legitimate purposes, but are rendered subservient to the cause 15 f bad Government, lam aware the efforts made throughout th e C oun t y t o per de the the Agriculturists that their interests are identified with the ascendancy of Toryism. The present Corn Laws are, according to dt Party, th e per f ect i on o f l eg i s l at i on. Does Agriculture prosper under them ? It is my opinion that a moderate fixed duty on fo t.eigu corn, can alone ensure steady and reasonable prices ; that opi -14:41 I expressed on a former occasion, and I have voted accordingly 1,4 Parliament. As to future legislation for the relief of Agricul !o re, what is the obvious measure which suggests itself to every e artner ? The Repeal of the Malt Tax. For this I have voted, a nd of course should do so again. The new Chancellor of the Ex ehoquer, Sir Robert Peel, whose business it will be to regulate such matters, not only voted against it, but expressed his conviction that t he revenu e could not spare the amount ; and certainly it could not, iicoording to the extravaga n t id eas o f th e party now in office ;—in le t, professing as they do to consider that the establishments of the co untry are alre a dy re d uce d b e l ow th e po i nt o f sa f ety, I d o not see is rv, they can carry on the Government without the imposition of fresh Taxes. The old watchword of the Constitution in danger has been founded, but you have had t oo many unaccomp li s h e d prophecies of thi s sor t to feel any apprehension of such a catastrophe. There Will be "no Revolution," Gentlemen, save in the blighted hopes of the Tories, and no " Convulsive Struggles " save those of an expir ing Faction.

The numerous testimonials the inventor has received during the last twenty years, from families and editors of the first respectability, proving the truth of this infallible restorative, all of whom may be applied to, who have been relieved from cataract, gutta serene, opth a l m i a , and inflammations, all dis eases of the eyes and head having been completely eradicated, glasses left off after twenty years' use, and the person rendered imperviou to contagion by the frequent use of this delightful compound of the most wholesome, choice, aromatic, and odoriferous herbs. It is re commended by occulists and medical practitioners for its many vir tues. The high patronage and character it has attained, is a testi monial beyond suspicion.

COPY OF A LETTER sent to Mr. Grimstone, 39, Broad street, Bloomsbury .—" Dear Sir,—You may make use of my name, for a true fact, in taking your Eye Snuff. I have received such great benefit, that I can see to write without glasses, which I could not do before I took your Eye Snuff, my eyes being so very weak; they are now perfectly strong ! Many of my poor aged men and women would purchase it in preference to other snuff, but they cannot afford sixpence per ounce, or buy it in the cannister. I re main, Sir, your's respectfully, H. PLUCKWELL, Governor of the Poor.—Poor-house, Tottenham, Middlesex, January 24, 1834.-- Sight restored." OBSERVATIONS of the Editor of the " Old England,' Sept. 22, 1833:—" EYE SNUFF.—This is really an extraordinary preparation. Of what it is compounded we know not ; but this we know, that it is wonderfully efficacious, relieving headache and purging the eyes of injurious humours, especially if they are of a scrofulous nature. It is also an extremely complaisant companion when toiling over musty books or writings, and tends most power fully to enable the eye to perform, without fail, an unusual quantity of labour." OBSERVATIONS of the Editor of the United Service Gazette, April 19, 1834.—" The advance of civilization, which gives birth to so many new for ms o f i n fi rm it y an d di sease , b r i ngs in its train new discoveries of remedial agents and new applications of science to their virtues. In no case has this remark been more signally verified than in the modern prevalence of near• sightedness, and the new appliances for its relief. Truly, we are a blinking genera tion • every second man glare s u p on us in th e s t ree t s th roug h var i e d shades of blue, green, or amber, but none of these opticaal preser vatives profess to restore the impaired faculty to the vigour of health. Let, however, the student and the literary devotee learn, with gra titude, that such a remedy exists. The instances in which Grim stone's Eye-snuff has renewed the power of vision by restoring vane to the over-strained organ are so numerous and well authen ticated, that the individual who neglects to make an experiment of its efficacy may justly be said to indulge a silly scepticism at his own expense."

The Directors are desirous to avail themselves of this opportunity to make known to the shareholders and the public the progress made in the works up to the present time, and the measures taken for their completion. The arches for the railway, from High-street, Deptford to the Blue Anchor-road, a distance of about two miles, arc nearly com pleted ; the favourable state of the weather having allowed the brick-work to be carried on without interruption over the worst foinkiations along the who ole line, and with the least possible expense. The purchases of property, extenOing towards Greenwich from High-street, Deptford, as also between the Blue Anchor-road and the works which have commenced at London Bridge, are proceed ing with the utmost activity. Mr. APlnto,l has entered into a contract with the Company for completing the whole line of railway ; and he havin g purchased a sufficient supply of bricks to effect the same, no impedient or delay can again occur on that head. The British Iron Company has contracted to supply the rails, to be immediately laid down on the two miles ready to receive them. Some of the engines and carriages that have been ordered, are expected to be finished, and on the railway in about two months. Some minor points in the present Act requirirr , amendment ap lication will be made for the same in the next Session of Parlia ment. By order of the Board, GEORGE WALTER. FOGS AND DAMP AIR. BARCLAY'S ASTHMATIC CANDY has, for many years, been proved an effectual preservative from the ill effects of the fogs and damp air, which, in the winter season, are so prevalent in this climate. Its effects are to expel wind, to preserve the stomach from the admission of damps, and to relieve those who suffer from difficulty of Breathing. Prepared only by Barclay and Sons, 95, Farringdon-street, London; and sold, by their appointment, by all respectable sta tioners, druggists, and medicine venders, in boxes, at 2s. 9d. and ls.id. each day included.

SIR,—As one of the electors of Finsbury, (not very in fluential, but desirous of seeing you our representative), allow me to state, that by your addresses to the electors you will stand or fall. Finsbury is a Dissenting borough ; and should you, like the Serjeant, insult the common sense of the electors by ambiguous expressions, your election is lost—lost. If, on the contrary, you are straightforward, and state—clearly state that you are for triennial Parliaments—vote by ballot—total extinction of church-rates, and the removal of the bishops from the pestilential atmosphere o f the Upper House—you are safe, perfectly safe ; and will thereby ensure (in conjunc tion with our worthy member, Mr. Duncombe) the votes of at least 1,800 Dissenters—Dissenters being determined, this election, to act unitedly. I am, Sir, your active friend, A DISSENTER. WEST KENT CONSERVATIVE DINNER. A very large and respectable body of the friends of the Con stitution, in Church and State, resident in West Kent, dined together last evening at the Bell Tavern, Maidstone. The company consisted of upwards of 400 of the Nobility, Gentry, and most influential inhabitants of the above division of the county. Lord Viscount MAHON took the Chair. Among the com pany assembled were the Earl of Winchilsea, Lord Bexley, Lord Brecknock, Lord Farnborough, Lord Marsham, Lord Maidstone, Lord Sydney, Lord Holmesdale, the Mayor of Maidstone, Sir W. Geary, Sir E. Deering, Sir J. Croft, Sir p. H. Dyke, Sir E. Fillmer, Sir W. Twisden, Sir J. Thom son, Sir J. Cross, the Rev. Sir C. Farnaby, Sir W. B. Rid dell, Sir J. R. Shaw, Sir T. M. Wilson, the Hon. A. K. Legge, Colonel Bingham, Colonel Best, Colonel Jones, Admiral Jones, the Hon. and Rev. Sir F. Stapleton, the Hon. T. W. Stratford, the Hon. and Rev. Mr. Neville, the Hon. J. W. King, the Rev. C. Cage, the Rev. W. Home, the Rev. W. S. Marriott, Major Morrice, C. Wykeham Martin, Esq., Lieut.-Colonel Fairman, Alderman Lucas, &c. At three o'clock the company sat down to dinner. After the cloth was remo•,ed Non Nobis was sang. The CHAIRMAN then rose and proposed the health of the King, which was drunk with three times three, and one cheer more was repeated from several parts of the room. The next toast was the Queen, when every man rose at the same moment, and shouted and cheered in the most enthusiastic manner. The next toast, the Princess Victoria and the rest of the Royal Family, which was drunk with due honours. The CHAIRMAN then rose to propose the toast, " Our Pro testant Constitution in Church and State." He observed that since that meeting was appointed to be held, most momen tous changes had taken place—( Cheers.) The cheers of the company encouraged him to say most happy changes for the country—( Hear, hear.) When he first received the application to attend the meeting those men who are now in office formed what is termed the Opposition. But the time would come when . th e pr i nc i p l es a d voca t e d by th a t p ar ty wou ld b e rightly understood and generally diffused—( Hear, hear.) He wished here to state that it must be evident to every one, from the weakness and discord of the late government, that they could not have remained together much longer, and it was, therefore, much better to place the Administration in more able hands than to try to patch up the old party—( Cheering.) 'That Administration had been substituted by men whose characters were held in estimation by the people. The name of Peel— ( Cheers)—of Wellington—( Cheering )—and of Lord Lynd hurst—( Renewed cheering) were calculated to call forth warm expressions of approbation. The present was the time for all true E ng li s h men to c om bi ne , an d, cas ti n g aside party grievances, to inquire if there existed any substantial grounds of objection f o r the people joining the standards of the Admi nistration ?—( Cheers. ) There never was an assertion more unfounded, than that the Conservative party were hostile to improving the condition of the people. The Noble Lord en tered into a variety of observations on this point, and then ad verted to th e R e f orm Bill. After directing the attention of the company to the opposition which he made to the Bill, he said he would put it to any of the honest supporters of the Re form Bill, whether they considered the Conservatives, or their adversaries, the fittest men to administer the law? Sir Robert Peel, in his address—which they had, no doubt, read—ob served most truly that they had had enough of agitation, and ad% iserl, now t h at t h e ques tion was settled and the Bill passed, that they s h ou ld a bid e by the settlement of the question, and not disturb it.—( Hear, hear.) But what was the language of the opposite party ? What said Lord Durham ? While in one moment he claims the merit of having originated the Bill, in the next he wishes to alter several of its clauses—( A laugh)-- same frankness as if he was still unconnected with office.— (Cheers.) The Noble Lord, after some other remarks as to the necessity for the people affording Government at this pe riod all the assistance in their power, concluded by proposing the toast before-mentinned. The Earl of WINCHILSEA rose amid loud cheers to propose the following toast, " The Archbishop of Canterbury and the Protestant Clergy of the United Kingdom." The present day was a proud one for Kent, for it was a proof that union still existed among them, and that whatever divisions were caused by the Refoim Bill among the community, still the majority of them were united, man with man, to support his Majesty, and to protect the Constitution in Church and State. A spirit of the kind he had alluded to, and the union he had mentioned, always marked the county he had the honour to belong to. He feared that he was intruding, and that it would be better for him at once to propose the health of the Arch bishop of Canterbury and the Established Church of the United Kingdom.—( - Cheers.) 'Ma cls.. - acter of that truly distinguished and eminent Prelate was too well known to need the slightest comment on his part, and even if lie were called upon to name his virtues, they were so great, both public and private, that he would be found incompetent to the task. Every one would allow that in his exalted station he gave proofs of the most exalted piety, joined with the most extensive learning, and a firmness to support those religious principles which he and they ought to value beyond all earthly price—for that religion and those principles were the foundation of the moral character that distinguished the people of this country, and made them superior to the inhabitants of all other nations. With respect to the clergy of the United .Kingdom, he would boldly assert that they were distinguished above all other bodies either in this country or any other; and Le thought, therefore, that all those who valued religion should give them then' support, and protect them against those who raised an unjust anci libellous cry against them. He had heard it s; id ' that the people talked against Church abuses. Ile would boldly say that from no institution had there emanated so much good to all classes—to the rich and to the poor—as from the institution of the Church. He begged to remind them that the Church was not founded by the State, but by the piety of their forefathers, and that by them it was instituted for the especial benefit of the poorer classes. When he saw the acts of the individuals of whom the body of the Church was com posed—when he saw that in all acts of charity they led the way, that they did the utmost in their power for the poor, and that on many occasions their acts of charity went beyond their power—when he saw them coming forward at every oppor tunity to support every established institution, whether it was moral, religious, or useful to the country, he felt, when he took all these things into consideration, that the loss of such a body would be a loss indeed.—( Hear, hear.) For his own part he would willingly support any measure that tended to make the institutions of the country, whether in Church or State, more general—more beneficial—more useful ; any measures of that description would, he assured the meeting, receive from the humble individual before them the most cordial support The Noble Earl then sat down, and the toast was loudly cheered. The Rev. J. MOORE rose to return thanks. A foreign statesman, whose name he forgot, said that the Constitution of England was the noblest monument of human wisdom that had ever been seen—that it was so divided, that each estate was a check upon the other—that it was so nicely balanced, that nothing but English folly or English treachery could ruis England.—(Cheers.) For the last four years he considered that the Government of the country was plainly verifying the worst part of this prophecy—( Hear, hear)—but thanks be to God, they had not succeeded.—( Loud cheers.) Looking to England even at the time of her worst ignorance, and at the time of her deepest degradation, she was never more reduced than at the present, or at least more than she had been for the last four years.—( Hear, hear.) For the truth of this he appealed to those gentlemen who had lately travelled in foreign countries. They would say that the name of Eng lishman was now sent into comparative insignificance, and that their ears were continually annoyed and insulted by hearing the name of England held up to contempt— ( Ilear, hear, hear)—that she was doomed to destruction, and that her destruction was to be brought about by her own suicidal hand.---(Loud cheers.) Could any one at pre sent deny that such a charge, looking to the moral influence of the Government of the last four years abroad, was un founded? lie would now come near home. lie would ask them to look to Ireland. The Protestant Clergy and Yeo manry of Ireland abandoned their country. They were turned out of it—driven by agitation out of it ; and thousands of them quitted their own country and sought refuge in a foreign land. —(Hear.) He would now turn to England herself, and he begged them to look how she was situated. He begged them to look at the farmers. Were they rich and prosperous ? (Cries of " No, no.") They were plunged into the extreme of distress ; and every one knew that they were sufferers, and that their sufferings proceeded from the free-trade system. ( Cheers.) What relief had the farmers received from the House of Commons during the last session?—(Cries of " None.") And yet these were the most useful men in the country : for it was they who produced the staff of life. These men— these useful men—finding themselves in dis tress, applied to the House of Commons, and demanded a Committee of Inquiry. Would it be believed by after ages that a House of Commons refused to institute that inquiry ?—( Hear, hear, hear ) Whet was the c,niduct of the late Ministers towards Ireland ? Why, to take an instance of it, let them take the case of a Protestant Judge—to that of a man who was second to none in private worth, learning, pro fessional ability, and integrity ; and yet this man was sum - mooed like a felon and accused before the House of Commons. The accusation was made by a man amenable, or nearly so, to the laws of his country ; by a man that was so nearly guilty of treason that his crime could scarcely be distinguished from it —( Cheers)—and yet it was at the instigation of such a man that a Judge, an upright and Protestant Judge, was about to be called to the bar of the House of Commons—( Hear, hear) —but happily this crying shame was prevented by a Kentish man.—( Cheers.) Sir Edward Knatchbull caused them, for tunately, to rescind their decision. He was happy to say that the clouds that had hitherto obscured the horizon were now beginning to break—that a new day was dawning upon them. The first cheering prospect they had was the King's declara tion to the Bishops ; by that declaration William IV. would establish his throne in the hearts of his subjects.—(Cheers.) Mr. BERENS ( Chairman of the County Sessions) said they were assembled to testify their attachment to the King, and to the Constitution in Church and State ; and above all, to that Constitution of the country as established in 1688, in King, Lords and Commons.—( Hear.) That Constitution, it ap peared to him, they were assembled to maintain and uphold, and he hoped there was no Gentleman there but was prepared to stand by it, to uphold it in its purity to the very last drop of his blood.—( Cheers and cries of " We will, we will 1") Where were they to find evidence of attachment to that Constitution ? Why, to be sure, in showing their energetic exertions in return ing to the next Parliament those Members and those Repre sentatives only who would that Constitution in Church and State in the manner he had just been speaking of. At any rate now, thank, God, they had on their side—on the side of the Constitution—the power of the King—and they all knew that the King's name was a tower of strength. He did not wish to throw dirt on the Administration that preceded the present, for his principles were not hostile ones, but conciliatory. He wished to throw no dirt—to cast no reflections, but as lightly as possible on the Ministers who had preceded the pre sent 'Administration. The reflections he would throw upon them would be in a kindly and conciliatory spirit. The truth was, with respect to the late Administration, that when they came to a political point, the leaders bolted—( Laughter), and then it was found that their wheelers could not be brought up to the point. The Greys, above all, among their set of horses, could not be brought up to the scratch—till at last, and he was now seriously speaking, the coach was at the mercy of a random horse that might be brought to drag it on.—( Laughter and cheers.) But unfortunately, or fortunately, every horse wished to drag a different way. Could a Government—he begged pardon, a coach—of this sort last ?—( Cries of " No, no.") Just at this moment stepped by the opposition coach the Wellington, and the only chance was to put the others into a basket, and let the Wellington party carry them through.— ( Laughter.) But now they had to look to something more se rious, viz., how they were to best manifest their attachment for the Church and State and Constitution of the country. The best way he would say was to strenuously support that Ministry which the Gazette of last week presented to thorn. As to the address of Sir Robert Peel to his constituents of Tamworth, it was a clear expose of principles ; an expose that every Eng lishman would heartily agree to, and against which he thought that the must perverse mind could not object.—( Cheers.) He begged to conclude by proposing the health of Sir Robert Peel and his Majesty's Ministers. The Noble Climamari proposed the health of their excellent Lord Lieutenant. Lord BRECKNOCK, in the absence of his father, returned thanks. Lord BFXLEY rose, with permission of the Noble Chairman, to propose a health which he thought not only they, but the whole of Europe would receive with approbation, particularly so when they saw that the man whose health he was about to propose had . held, s ingle-handed, for the last few weeks, the reins of Government. That he had courageously received those reins at the command of his Sovereign, when they were just dropping from the feeble hands that before held them,— ( Cheers.) The individual that he alluded to would lead the country to happiness, as be had formerly led Europe to vic tory.--( Cheers.) The only claim that he (Lord Bexley) bad BOROUGH OF LAMBETH. A meeting of the electors of this borough was held at the Horns Tavern, Kennington, last evening, to take into consi deration the dismissal of the Melbourne Minitrv, and to pro pose resolutions relative to the present members. Mr. Tennyson, Mr. Hawes, Major Beauclerk, and a great number of electors attended on the occasion. Arr. PALMER was in the Chair, and, after reading the reso lution for calling a meeting of the electors, proceeded to state shortly the object of the meeting, and the course which they ought to pursue in the present circumstances of the country. He began, by saying that within the last twenty-four hours they had been favoured with the public declaration of Sir Robert Peel, with regard to the intention of his Majesty's Ministers, and, as far as he could judge of it, he must say that he had never seen a more complete specimen of Jesuitcy. He had never seen such pure and perfect special pleading, and he called on them, as independent electors, to come forward in the great cause of Reform, to bury all shades of differences, and return men to parliament who would represent their inte rests faithfully and manfully. Mr. T. Haney then came forward and proposed the first resolution. He said that he had no doubt that his Majesty had been grossly deceived. They had been called on by the " leading journal" to forego all party principles, and surrender to the dominion of the Duke of Wellington. He had made it his object since the change of the Ministry to watch the feel ings and expressions of those with whom he mixed, and he would say that he had not met with one who wished to trust the present Ministry who was not an enemy to the liberties of the country.—( Applause.) A belief had gone abroad, and was generally entertained, that the Whigs were in power for ever, and many had, in consequence of such belief, began to veer to the other side, but no sooner did the change take place than they joined the party who called out to wait and see what the Peel Administration would do. Much had been said about the phrase " measures and not men," but Can ning put an end to that delusive phrase, when he said it was the horse and not the harness that made the vehicle move.—( Applause.) He was glad that such a Ministry had been formed, for they were all of the same kind, they were all tarred with the same stick—(Laughter)—and he was quite sure that the people of England were not so stultified as to desert those men who had conducted the affairs of the country for four years to be led by the nose by a set of mountebanks. The time had gone by when such things could be done. Sir Robert Peel had alluded to what he had done in the cause of reform. And what had he done ? He would give an instance. When it was proposed to difranchise East Retford for bribery and corruption, how did fir R. Peel vote? He voted for the transfer of the franchise to the hun dred of Bassetlaw ; in other words, he gave the power of election to the Duke of Newcastle. He lamented that Earl Grey had not been so true to his promises as the people had a right to expect.—( Cheers.) Yet still lie would ask, who would prefer the men now in power to Earl Grey's party ? (" None.") He then alluded to the edict which had been lately published in the Hanover Gazette, forbidding all stu dents to discuss, or belong to societies which discussed, the laws or Constitution of the country, on pain of expulsion ; and, for the purpose of showing how the affairs of the Church of England were conducted at present, lie read some adver tisements for the sale of advowsons ' in which it was st a t e d as a recommendation that the parishes were small ; that there was little duty ; and that there was a good pack of fox-houndi in the neighbourhood. He concluded by saying that the Royal mind had been abused, and that the Melbourne Ministry had been turned out because they were resolved to do away with abuses in the Church. The following resolution was then read:— " lst—That at a period when his Majesty has been gro ss ly de ceived with regard to the real wishes and true interests of his sub jects, we, the electors of Lambeth, feel it our bounden duty to make a determined effort to rescue our King and country from the renewed domination of that party in the State whose political prin ciples have involved this great commercial country in an enormous national debt, and all the destructive and baneful consequences of a corrupt, tyrannical, and profligate system of government, and who themselves have ever been the bigotted opponents of those reforma tions in Church and State, which the people of England have long regarded as essential to the permanent happiness and prosperity of the nation, and which they have lately been led to anticipate, front the measure of Parliamentary Reform." Mr. M'LEou seconded the resolution, and, after a few ob. servations from another elector, Mr. PEWTRESS proposed the second resolution, and went over at some length the Address made by Sir Robert Peel to the Electors of Tamworth , which he condemned in str ong lan guage. If ,Sir Robert Peel were sincere in his declaration relative to reform, why not try the present Parliament ? That Parliament had shown a strong desire to carry the Reform Bill into effect, and if he advised his Majesty to dissolve it, he would say that he was doing what he could to destroy the peace and harmony which existed in the country, to delude the people, and not to reform but uphold abuses. Mr. CHEESEMAN seconded the resolution, which was to the following effect : " 2nd—That this meeting, as an influential portion of the elec. toral body of the kingdom, do hereby solemnly pledge themselves, collectively and individually to rally round the true standard of re. form and good government, and cordially, to unite in using every effort to return to the Commons House of Parliament such honest and patriotic Representatives as will fully and effectually ensure the promotion of civil and religious liberty—the constitutional reforma tion of every corruption and abuse—the alleviation of the public burdens—and the protection and extension of the rights and privi leges of the people." Mr. GRADY, after a few observations, moved that there be added to the resolution that, in order to preserve the rights and privileges of the people, they ought to have household suf frage, triennial Parliaments, and vote by ballot. A long discussiou then took place on the point whether the proposition of Mr. Grady could be put consistently with the requisition for the meeting, and it was finally carried by a great majority, that Mr. Grady's motion was regular, and that the words ought to be added to the resolution. Mr. F. HARDY then moved a vote of thanks to Mr. Tenny son for his political principles, and the able manner in which he had represented in the reformed Parliament the interests of the electors of Lambeth. The CHAIRMAN then said, that if any elector had any clues.. tions to put to Mr. Tennyson, relative to his votes in the House of Commons, now was the time to propose them. An ELECTOR then put some questions, when Mr. TENNYSON, on being called for, came forward, and was received with loud cheers. He expressed great satisfaction at the reception which he had met with from so numerous and respectable an assembly, and was delighted that the day had arrived when he could give an account of his stewardship. He had, at the election for the Reformed Parliament, made profession of his principles, and he was proud to say that in no one instance had he, in the slightest degree, deviated from them.—( Applause.) He was too old to make professions, and not to make up his mind to follow them to the full extent. While in Parliament he had, to the best of his ability, dune his duty. He had paid due regard to the dignity and authority of the Crown, but while he did so, he did not forget the civil and religious rights of the people. — ( Cheers.) He had been blamed for strong expressions used, but that he trusted they would attribute to his character—he might say to the character of an Englishman. People had charged him with an inten tion of throwing everything into confusion—of pursuing mea sures which would bring about a Revolution. But he was quite sure that. if he had made any such an attempt the re spectable electors whom he saw before him would at once have hurled him from the pinnacle to which they had elevated him.
