To be had at the Montpellier Pump room, Cheltenham ; at e the Eare9Tb No-71..Thrgrmortsmtt!est.. , Rraghtmt the United Kingdom. regret that such learning and such abilities should be thrown away upon so trumpery an affair, com menced; by observing that in so doing he felt a degree of anxiety commensurate with the import ance of the question upon which he was called o decide. It was a matter of great importance to those whose franchises were concerned in it.— After paying a flattering and deserved compli ' went to the High Sheriff for his impartiality, the Learned Assessor proceeded to point out the anomalies and inconveniences to which the re cognition of this right would give rise, although at the same time, he begged it to be understood, that, if the right did exist these would form no ground for withholding it. In the first place it appeared to him extraordinary that any persons could have a freehold vested in them for life, but which they could part with one week, and revive at pleasure the next. Then, again, the number of freeholders was inde finite, arid might be increased, at the option of the Corporation, to an unlimited extent. If the right were allowed, it would be in the power of the Cm , poration at airy time, supposing the value of the land to be sufficient to create, during the period of a con tested election, as many freemen, and consequently, freeholders, as might be required to turn the elec tion in the way they wished. If the evidence were true, they might at the present time double the num ber of freemen, and yet each, assuming the existence of the freehold, would have a legal vote. Then, again, if they had the power of enfranchising, so also had they the power of disfranchising. He did not mean by depriving the individual of his freedom, though that could be done temporarily, and the period between its being done, and the reinstating the party by an appeal to the King's Bench, would be suffi cient to answer any election purpose, but they might do it in another way, and which no law could restrain them from doing. They might, supposing the freehold worth 40s: create double the number of freemen, and thus destroy the required qualifi cation. This they might do to an unlimited extent and he was not supposing an improbable case, for it was well known that Corporations had at different times exercised their powers for electioneering pur poses. They might do this even between the time of a freeman coming up to vote and his giving his decision on the validity of such vote. The question had been most ably argued. From the evidence it appeared to him that the rights they exercised over the old enclosure were by sufferance of the Corpo ration. He could readily understand why this was allowed by the Corporation, for lie found a large sum, from 201. to 401. was levied on the admission of a stranger to the freedom, which no doubt formed an important source of revenue to the Corporation, and it was therefore probable that they would, for the purpose of increasing this source of revenue, and inducing persons to purchase the freedom, attach as many benefits to its possession as they possibly could without serious injury to the corporate pro perty. The whole conduct of the Corporation squared with the presumption that the freemen were entitled only to depasture the land by permission of he Corporation. The Learned Counsel who had been retained to assert the right, had not been enabled to show how such an anomaly could exist, and the fair conclusion, therefore, was that it did not exist. With respect to the 87 acres of land, he was of opinion that the words "to and for the use" were not used in the technical and legal sense in which they would be in a conveyance, but in their popular and common acceptation, and that all the Act intended to confer was a common right of pem•etr ter7;' ror'wnoever ',ward o 2 a ireenolaer be ing—Stinted as to the quantity of cattle he chose to Place on his fields? In conclusion, after a full ex amination of the facts, and attentive consideration of the arguments raised, he w as of opinion that there was in neither case a freehold, and, consequently no right of voting. Immediately upon the delivering of this judgment, which was received with loud cheering, Mr. S for IV b I a r d . erjean Cartwright and t Sir ADAMS t (who g said that e htie y ); been instructed by his c l i ents to take the first oc casion that presented itself of thank i ng the learned Assessor for the intelligent, the impartial, and the admirable manner in which the Assessor had decided all questions that had been brought before him. He could not be insensible of the fact that that occasion had now occurred. The same steadiness, the same rectitude, the same impartiality, the same intelli gence, and the sa me learning, which had charac terised all the other decisions of the Assessor-, had shown forth most eminentlyin this decision ; and now that the duty of an advocate was past, he felt that he was only performing the part of an honour able man, in assuring the Assessor that this de cision of his bad been received by him and by hi s clients without either dissatisfaction or disappoint- ment. Mr. D. HILL (who is Counsel for Lord Althorp) fully concurred in every word which had fallen from his Learned Friend.: Sir C. KNIGEITLEY said, that as one of the can didates who had considered that it would be a great object gained if this question were decided in favour of the freemen, he begged to be allowed to say a f e w words. He had been told that it was very probable that the validity of this claim of the free men would be established. He had known nothing about the matter himself. The moment, however, in which he had heard the evidence upon it, his mind was made up, and he was satisfied, without knowing all y thing about the law of th e case , c h at this property was Corporation property, and that the freemen had no right at all in it. He thanked the Assessor most cordially for the impartiality which he had displayed throughout the election, and he heartily concurred in the compliment which Mr. conducttim oonfythtoe SeLjeoarodnf t SirAA L d T a c m ll. o s z had paid pnigihntuisety, t a o the Assessor. ltsiolatadtdheiiiste s Assessorini p a ar - a t d iaL also lie of h t a n d e m H u ig eh h S p l l i e e a r s i ff u , re l , ia t d oo b , ee i n n that he did no t t hi n k t h e pra i se w hi c h M r . sillth e Y° l 6 ::; g ant Adams had bestowed on the Assessor was at a ll superior to that Learned Gentleman's deserts. These proceedings, and particularly the decision, were received with loud cheering by the audience, a nd thus ended this new comedy of Much Adoabout Nothing, in which the only serious part was the e pisodical and complimentary portion which regarded ti assessor, who is unquestionably a gentleman of ability, and of th e most re li g i ous impar tiality, and o lit r : l, , inar y who deserved all that was said of him. After this decision, and considering the speech of Mr. Cartwright yesterday, I fully expected that the Anti-Reform candidates would have resigned to-day. I leave your readers to decide whether this expec tation was not a reasonable one, and whether they can find, in the speeches that follow, the slightest ground for the disappointment of that expectation, which nevertheless was disappointed as you will per ceive. The poll, at its close t o -day, stood thus : Althorp Milton _ - 2 ' 468 128 Cartwright 02 009 Knightley . 1:418 Majority f or M ilton . -119 Lord ALTIIORP (who was received with loud cheering) said that the question of which they had heard so much having been at length decided, and the poll having been so slow as they must have ob served it to have been, he thought he might now fairly say that even his opponents must consider the election as practically concluded.—(Cheers.) —He had not only now to thank them for the place which lie occupied upon the poll, but on the present occa sion he represented also his Noble Friend, Lord GENERAL ELECTION. NORTHAMPTON, 31:4 r 21. The Anti-Reformers here die hard; and although they have no more chance of success than the Re form Bill has of being thrown out in the next Par liament, yet they justify the continuance of a most vexatious contest, in the manner that would do credit even to the canting and shallow plausibility o f Joseph Surface himself. They still pretend that there is a probability of Mr. Cartwright and Si r C. Knightley. succeeding; but if they suppose that any man out of Bedlam can be deceived by a pretence of this kind, they must be infinitely more stupid, than, in their clumsy cleverness, they take other people to be. There is, however, one advantage attending the expense of this cc-Attest. The people are sure, by means of it, to get back some of the money which the boroughmongers have purloined from them ; and that, too, in a manner the most distressing to the borouglimongers, who disgorge, it is true, but then they disgorge in the vain hope of the sick man at sea, who puts his finger down his own throat in order to better his condition. Vain hope, indeed ! for a Reform in Parliament, which is as certain as that their reign is over, will prevent any one applying to them the scriptural reproach of returning to their vomit again. The sow will be washed, but it will never have another opportunity of wallowing in the mire. I mentioned to you yesterday the question which had been raised by the Anti-Reformers respecting the right of the freemen of the town to vote as electors for the county, anti which is frequently alluded to in the speeches above; that question has been decided against the Anti-Reformers--it has been decided that the freemen have no such right. The question is called here a question of " very great importance," but I cannot understand why, unless there be some local, some Northamptonshire meaning attaching to the word " importance," which, as a stranger of the county, I am ignorant of. If a question be important because it gives rise to expence, because it creates a plausible ground for delay, because it uselessly endangers the peace and quiet of a large town, and because it demonstrates that learned men have such a command over their countenances that they can argue in favour of the grossest absurdity without bursting into a laugh, then, indeed, this question was an important one, but not otherwise. The nature of this supposed right which was claimed on behalf of the freemen—though the argument exhausted a whole day, which I have no doubt was the sole end and object for which the question was raised—may be told in a very few words. Every freeman of Northampton had, it was said, the right of turning out a certain number of head of cattle for a certain part of the year, upon a certain common in the vicinity of the town ; but for his freedom each freeman pays about 1E4., and for every bead of cattle that he turns out he is charged 16s. Now it was proved, and not denied, that if every freeman exercised this supposed right, the common would be as quickset with quadrupeds as Smithfield is on a market day; so that the common could not pos sibly furnish pasture to the animals unless one beast were accommodating enough to lift up his foot while another took a bite. It was not easy to see that the right of turning cattle out upon a place like this could be worth any thing; but then it appeared in evidence that there was this advantage attending it, namely, that if a man wished to part with his horse, he could take no surer means of gratifying his wish than turtling the animal out upon this common, for the beast was sure to be stolen. These were the advantages which it was contended were worth 40s. a year to each freeman, and the right to these ad vantages was moreover said to be a freehold right. The ASSESSOR (Mr. Clarke), in a judgment which did him the highest credit as a lawyer and a speaker, but which made every one who heard him PRICE 7D. Milton, e t c: u h s i e s d s e o m n aca i o c f s l t r u is die N s ob in le a Fr t ie n n d v , e r st who y lad till now represented his father with so much ibility, h a d b een obliged to quit this place in order returnto where he (Lord Al t h orp ) truste d that gentleman would distinguish himself as much as he was sure they would all admit he had distinguished himself an those hustings.—(Much cheering.)—He begged, hen to return to them his thanks, both for himself ind for his Noble Friend. For himself he most cor •lially and sincerely thanked them ; for his Noble Friend be thanked them, partly for the sak, of his Noble Friend personally, b ut ma i nly because the sup port they had given to his Noble Friend had been ,riven because his Noble Friend was a Parliamentary Reformer—(Cheers.) Mr. CARTWRIGHT could not deny that the deci sion of the Assessor must materially influence the election; yet he thought the state of the poll would justify him in taking this evening to consider what course he should adopt.—(Cheers and hisses, and cries of " Give up.")—The situation which he oc cupied upon the poll was to him a source of great satisfaction,—for, after all the previous canvass, of which he had known nothing till it was too late, he could hardly have expected to reach the number of 2,000 votes.—(Cheers and hisses.).—He must again say that this elettion would be no triumph _to Re form. Indeed, be looked upon it as a triumph upon his part.—(Laughter.)—lt showed what was the strength of the Anti-Reform party in that county,— it.proved that what was now called a triumph by their opponents would be only a temporary triumph, —and he was satisfied that on another occasion so large a party as that which had supported him must succeed.—(Cheers and hisses.)—lt would have been much more handsome in Lord Milton if that nobleman had attacked him openly, and not written an anonymous letter against him—(Cheers and hisses)—and he thought it would have been still more handsome if Lord - Milton had not had recourse to what he must call secret machinations, for the purpose of procuring his return. The young gentle man who had on those hustings given so much pro mise of future excellence, had naturally enough at tempted to defend Lord Milton upon this subject; but still he (Mr. Cartwright) could not help thinking that it would have been more manly in Lord Milton to have attacked him openly, and not anonymously. —(Cheers and hisses.) During the period which he had represented that county in Parliament, a period of 31 years, he had invariably acted as he thought the interest of the country required him to act. He had never courted popularity even in the most difficult times of the country, and in illustra tion of this he would instance the vote he gave on the Catholic question. He knew that his vote would be unpopular—he knew that the measure was a dangerous one; but, considering it as the lesser of two evils, he had felt conscientiously that it was his duty:to give a vote which he might yet pay the penalty of, but which nevertheless be should always look back upon without regret. He had but one other subject to speak to them upon. He had received a letter from Lord Cleveland, who had, it appeared, seen some observations of his (Mr. Cartwright's) respecting that Noble Lord's expected dukedom. Lord Cleveland complained that he should have made such observations, declaring that they were perfectly unfounded, for that, up to the date of the letter, which was the 20th of May, he had received no hint whatever that lie was to be made aduke.—(Cries of " He ought to be.") Now he (Mr, Ciartwrirtlit) iambi .1 ject, he nee not the slightest intention of saying any thing personally disrespectful of Lord Cleveland. lie had alluded to a current rumour, in which, after the letter he had received from Lord Cleveland, he was satisfied there was no truth. He would not detain them longer. He should take this eren ing to look over the proper documents, and then make his decision as to the continuance of this con test—a contest in which he must say he thought that he had been very ill used.—(Cheers, mixed with cries of " No, no !") No man, however, was less disposed than he was to carry political rancour and animosity into private life, and he hoped that when this election closed, all unpleasant feelings to which it might have given rise would cease and be forgotten.—(Cheers.) Sir C. KNIGIITLEY said, that of all the extraor dinary events of this election, the most extraordinary was that all parties appeared to be content. — (Laughter.) Their opponents were delighted, and for himself and his Hon. Friend, they had no fault to find with the situation in which they were placed. Their opponents might gain the victory, but it would be dearly bought. There was one thing he thought the people would be much disappointed in : they expected a new Parliament soon, but he did not think they would get one soon. No, the Parliament now about to meet would be found so well suited to the purposes of Ministers that they would not like to get rid of it in a hurry. Ile did not quarrel with Ministers for this—for he would rather have such a Parliament for ever, than a new-fangled Parliament composed of quacks and mountebanks. —(Laughter, and cries of " You'd make a beautiful figure in Parliament." The spirit of the party was unbroken; they still were, and still would be, leagued against all innovation and revo lution, and associated together in defence of their Constitution and their religion.—(Laughter.)-- Their party might be unrepresented, but it was nei titer abashed nor cast down. He, for one, would always exert his humble efforts to vivify and keep alive that party, and to make it burst into a flame whenever it was attacked.—(Cheers and laughter.) He had one thing more to say. Among the many painful things that had occurred to him during this election, the most painful was his collision with one (Lord Althorp) with whom he had lived in habits of intimacy and friendship for the greatest part of his life. There was nothing which he more sin cerely regretted than he regretted this; but when he saw his Noble Friend advocating a measure which he thought would bring desolation and de struction upon the country, he could not be pre vented by considerations of private friendship from giving his Noble Friend his most unqualified oppo sition as a politician. The Hon. Baronet concluded thus :—" As to you all, you are, for Reformers, the best I ever met with. I think you have improved by being in the good company of the Anti-Re formers..—(Laughter.)—l have never received the least insult or affront from you; and, in spite of your jokes, I shall never be unmindful of the pa tience and the kindly feeling with which you have heard me during this election."—(Cheers.) Lord ALTHORP felt it necessary to say a few words after the speeches of his two Hon. Friends, which he had heard with happiness and delight. He could assure them that there did not and could not exist in his mind any thing like hostility towards them, and it should not be his fault if, as soon as the heat of this election had subsided, they did not live toge ther again upon the same terms of friendship as be fore.—(Cheers.) This contest bad been one of a purely political nature. He had seen his most inti mate friends voting against him, and knowing their political opinions differed from his, he had thought them quite right in so doing.—(Cheers.) He was one of those who thought that political dif ferences ought never to disturb or interfere with pi i vete friendship; and he could assure Sir C. Knight ley, who had very truly said that they had lived to gether in friendship for the greater part of their lives, that he saw nothing in the opposition which Ins Hon, Friend had given him upon that occasion ,which was calculated to disturb the friendship that had so long subsisted . betweCn them.—.--(Cheers.) After the speeches of his two Hon Friends, be had Nought himself called upon to say thus much, which, he assured them, he said in the most perfect sincerity. The meeting then separated ; and this being market-day, a much larger crowd assembled before Lord Althorp's hotel, when they were severally ad dreised by his Lordship, Mr. Vernon Smith, and Mr. D. Hill; but the length to which the report has already extended, induces me to abstain from giving you any account of those speeches, which were too long to be fully reported, and which I will not misrepresent by an abridgment. Up to a very late hour to-night, it was expected that the Anti-Reformers %would have sent in their resignation, but they did not. SUNDAY, TWELVE O'CLOCK, SLAY 22.. The contest is over. By the kindness of Mr. D. Hill, the counsel for Lord Althorp, I am enabled to communicate to you the fact, that Mr. Cartwright And S , r C. Knightley have given up the contest. NORTHAMPTON TO WAY ELECTION. The scrutiny demanded g commenced on Monday last at the County-hall, ln rore the Mayor and Bailiffs, and the Assessor, Mr. Humfrey. Mr. Serjeant LUDLOW appeared ai Counsel Sir G. Robinson and Mr. Vernon Smith; and Mr. WRIGHT on behalf of Sir R. Gunning. A preliminary objection was taken...by Mr. Soti. LUDLOW, who argued that the right of scrutiny had been taken away by the 9th of George IV. Mr. WRIGHT, in reply, contended, that the right of scrutiny had not been taken away, and that it was recognised by the common law of the land., The question was decided by the Assessor, who was clearly of opinion that the right of scrutiny was still in existence. Mr. ' l / 4 1 7 !iiGHT then proposed to call witnesses to prove the no,o..l l 4:ilification of a particular voter; but it was . objected by Mr. Serjeant LUDLOW that no notice had lire given to the vot er i n ques ti on o f the intention to disoote his vote, and he was there fore not present. The objection was allowed by the Assessor, who said that he would adjourn the case to the following day._ _ Mr. Scrjeant LUDLOW then proceeded in the scutiny of Sir R. Gunning's votes, when three were struck off. Mr..WRIGHT having stated that he was taken by surprise, The Assessor adjourned the Court to the follow ing day, when the scrutiny recommenced, and in all probability will continue for several days.—North ampton Mercury. GREAT MARLOW.—The scrutiny which com menced at the Greyhound inn, in this town, on Tuesday last, closed at eleven o'clock on Saturday morning, Colonel Clayton having declined to pro ceed any further, on account of the difficulty he experienced in procuring the requisite testimony to render it effectual; and also from the very superior advantages likely to result in removing it to a tri bunal armed with power to compel the production of every description of evidence. The numbers, after the scrutiny, stood as follow: Owen Williams, Esq. - 193 T. P. Williams, Esq. 189 Colonel Clayton - - - 184 The thanks of both parties were given to Donald M'Lean, Esq., the assessor, Mr. Samuel Clark, and Mr. William Reading, the returning officers, arid to Mr. Robert Turner, overseer, for their impartial and meritorious conduct during the late election. Mr. Serjeant Mereweather conducted the case for Colonel Clayton, and Messrs. Harrison and Wheat ley were retained for Messrs. Williams. CARMARTHENSIIIRE.—On Monday the election of a Member for Carmarthenshire took place at Llandillo. Sir James Hamlyn Williams, Bart., of Edwinsford, was proposed, and no other candidate. On being proposed he expressed the happiness he felt at seeing the county come forward as one man in support of the King and his measures. If they c vit t i l d? i til rs l iefajgt f eifli nisi - el.s; n'd every possible reduction of taxation. The Sheriff, after waiting the usual time, and no other candidate appearing, declared Sir James Hamlyn 'Williams duly elected. The freeholders who assembled on the occasion, to the amount of 1,600, afterwards dined together, in exultation at the triumph of the cause of Reform. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Messager des Chatubres, dated Saturday.) PARIS, MAY 20.—The following particulars are extracted from a letter from Mayence, addressed to our correspondent at Aix-la-Chapelle : " The Prussian army is divided into eight corps, exclusive of the Royal Guard. Each corps con sists of about 10,500 men on the peace establish ment, and about 21,000 men on the war establish ment, besides the Landwehr ; adding the latter to the regular troops, each corps would be about 41,000 strong, and the total of the army, without the Guards, the companies of invalids, and the garrisons, would be 330,000 men. " The Ist, 2d, sth, and Gth corps are on the frontiers of Poland, under the command of Field- Marshal Gniesenau. The third corps is stationed between Halle and Magdeburg. There remain, therefore, only the . 4th, 7th, and Bth, to act upon the Rhine; but as they have not called out the Land wehr, the troops placed on the left bank of the Rhine cannot make an effective force of more than 50,000 men. The garrison at Mayence is now be, tween 13 and 14,000 men." In consequence of the intimation made by the Consul of France to the Emperor of Morocco, that the invasion which he had ordered his troops to make of the provinee of TeleMsen, dependent on the kingdom of Algiers, might endanger the relations of good neighbourhood existing between France and Morocco, the Emperor has recalled his nephew, Muley Bey, and ordered him to quit Telemsen. The Emperor is going to employ these troops to restore tranquillity, which is seriously interrupted in several parts of his dominions. The expedition to Telemsen has caused a loss of 700,000 or 800,000 francs to the treasury of Morocco, which is an exor bitant sum for that empire; and the result of the expedition has been to occasion the troubles which now afflict it. Baron Pagel, the Minister of the Netherlands, has returned to Paris. Baron de Bourgoin, Secretary of Legation, arrived at Paris three days ago from St. Peter burgh. Count de Mornay is gone express to Petersburgli., (From the Courrier Francais of Friday.) PARIS, MAY 19.—1 t is affirmed that letters from Vienna, dated 12th instant, and from Augsburg, I.sth, have been received by express by some bankers at Paris. It is added that they bring the news that General Skrzynecki had just obtained another portant victory near Kaluszyn, over Field-Marshal Diebitsch, who is in full retreat. It was said at Vienna, that Marshal Diebitsch would cease to com mand the army, and that he would be succeeded by General Paskewitch. ) PARIS, MAY be denied that the ro 2 m o._ the it eo c n a s i t l i n t o ut t io b nne different Ministers since July have not entered frankly into the principles of our revolution, arid have very little confirmed them. The troubles have alarmed the country—each party has attributed them to the Ministers; but the men who see in the revolution only a continued restoration, increase and profit by these disputes. We look, however, with confidence to the decision of events. We cannot predict the result of the elections, but the Chamber will necessarily adopt, as the basis of its delibera tions, the Charter of 1830.
