In the early part of Thursday morning Sir W. Jolliffe, the High Sheriff, entered the town, and in order to secure the advantages of a good situation, the representatives of the various London papers addressed themselves to him through the interft rence of Mr. Denison, and at once received the most polite attention, and his directions in their fa vour were readily and effectually complied with by Mr. Abbott, the Under Sheriff. We were permitted to enter the Hall before the doors were opened to the public, and were placed in the box usually oc cupied by the Jury, into which, within a few mi nutes afterwards, a number of lovely and elegant ladies were introduced. At a quarter past ten, Sir W. Jolliffe,accomianied by the candidates and their friends, entered the Hall, and the doors were then thrown open to the public. The rush was violent but momentary, for the upper part of the Coto was at once filled, and the number of the curious was not sufficient to occupy the whole of the Hall. Among the gentlemen present, were Messrs. C. Patimer, Holme Sumner, Drummond, Crawfurd, Culvert, C. Barclay, Maberly. The Court was then opened—the writ and pro clamation read--ethre oath was taken by the Sheriff, j and the Act against bribery and corruption was gone through. After these accustomed formalities had I been disposed of, Mr. LEACH rose to address the freeholders. He had the honour once more to address them in favour of his old and respected friend, Mr. Denison — (Cheers)—who had served them so long in Parlia ment that it was unnecessary for him to say more than a very few words in that gentleman's favour, as the part he had always taken shewed him to be a man of independence, of sound and honourable principle —(Applause.) He was thankful to Mr. Denison for the part he had always taken in Parlia ment—for the consistent support he had always given to Parliamentary Reform—for the opposition he had always shown to the lavish expenditure of the Government.--(Applause.) The Hon. Gentle man would tell them this day what his opinions were with respect to Parliamentary Reforn. It was to be hoped the day would not be far distant when they should meet again, and under auspices very different from those under which they now were assembled, and that they would have frequent op portunities of sending to Parliament men that would, and that must obey the wishes of the people. es-(Cheers.) He begged to propose Mr. Denison as a fit and proper person to represent them in Par liament.—(Cheers.) Mr. LADBROKE briefly seconded the nomination amidst much cheering. Sir R. FREDERIC should have, as he had on Thursday at Epsom, the honour of nominating his gallant friend Colonel Jolliffe, to be one of the re presentatives of the county. He knew his Hon. and Gallant Friend was an honourable, an indepen dent, an honest, and intelligible man, and in every way fit to promote their interests and the interests of the country.—(Hear.)—His cry was, " King and country," u cry that had protected the country, and would make them a happy and great nation, if happy they would be. His cry was, " King and country," and he hoped theirs would be " Jolliffe for ever."—(Applause, mixed with disapprobation.) Mr. C. BARCLAY was satisfied that the gentleman whose nomination he had now the honour to second, was known to the county, and esteemed by the freeholders. At Epsont he had stated that he should support the nomination of his Hon. Friend, and he had said so because he did feel that it iwas necessary for the best interests of the country that the Administration of the Duke of Wellington should be supported.—(Applause.)—Colonel Jolliffe would afford all freeholders the means of coming to the poll; and from the success the Colonel had enjoyed in his canvassing, there could be no doubt that he would be returned their representative. This was his opinion, and he had no doubt that in the course of two or three days they would confirm that opinion, by the great majority of their votes.-- (Applause.) Mr. HENRY DRUMMOND next proceeded to ad dress the Court, and was received with the most en. thusiaric cheering. He had been charged by an Hon. Gentleman, who had just spoken, with being an old mananivrer. He was no old manceuvrar. He never assisted in any contest for the representation of that county, except when he had the honour of filling the place now so worthily occupied by Sir Wm. Jolliffe. He was no manceuvrer, but he h a d some common sense. lie did know dist, as an in dependent freeholder of the county of Surrey, th e line that it became him to take, and he showed at Epsom his sentiments upon that subject, in a man ner which he trusted his brother freeholders could no: misunderstand. The ground which he proposed to occupy this day would be precisely that which he did occupy at Epsom. He told them then, as he would tell them now, that the duty they had to perform—the simple subject for their consideration —was the competency of the candidates presented to become the advocates of their a ffairs—th e de positaries of their interests and those of the public generally. He confessed, that in the ordinary inter. course of life he could not help suspecting the sincerity of a man who offered to do any quantity of hard labour for nothing. Sir James Macintosh, when he offered to defend Peltier without remune ration, was naturally enough obnoxious to that spe cies ofsuspicion—at least some might think he had an ulterior object in thus agreeing to do that without fee for which other men would expect large and liberal re wards. Ile appealed to their own feelings and ex perience, whether in any case they had found emi nent Counsel in that Court-house disposed to be come the advocates of any litigants without that foe which they were accustomed to receive? The ground which lie took up at Epsom was just this — was or was not Mr. Briscoe a fit and proper person to represent the county of Surrey ; and who else besides him was likely to prove an efficient repre sentative for the county ? Ile would not propose Mr. Briscoe, nd he gave his reasons for not doi n g so. Now diere was a point to which he wished to direct their special attention—they heard much talk on all sides of the necessity of reform in Parliament. This might be all very fine and very attractive; but " old birds were not to be caught wi t h chaff" Was not that what every newspaper said ? Were not almost all journalists the advocates of parliamentary reform ; but when they came to elect a Member of Pialiament they were called upon to inquire minutely into his fitness to discharge the duties of that high and responsible station, which the representative of such a county as Surrey held. It was incumbent upon the electors of counties and of towns to inquire scrupulously before they give votes, and not allow themselves to be carried away by words, but to in quire into the meaning of those words, and why the persons proposed meant to support this or that mea sure in Parliament, for things were goad or bad just according to the " why" what was behind theta. In that place candidates might say they would vote for a repeal of the Malt Tax, thinking, perhaps, that, by doing so, they were conciliating the good wishes of the farmers ; and he confessed that the repeal of the Malt Tax would be extremely agreeable to him, seeing that lie drank beer and no wine. But the Members who said that they would vote for a repeal of the Malt Tax, would have in Parliament to encounter the Stockholders, who, to be sure, would not object to the repeal of the Malt Tax, if the supporters of that repeal could point out, This day were published, io A vols. small Bvo., with Portrait, fANDOM kECORDS By GEORGE COLNIAN the YOUNGER._ Among the numerous distinguished persons that figure in this work are—George llL—the late Duke of York— Lord Nurth—Marquis of Wellesley—Duchess of King ston—Lord Erskine—William Pulteney, Earl of Bath— Sir Joseph Banks—lt.

Malt Tax supplied. Then there were those who talked of Parliamentary Reform and of re trenchment and economy, without even explaining how those objects were to be effected. It was the grostot dclusion—(Cries of No, no, no)—to make professions of that nature, without making apparent the means by which those professions could be realized. It was a gross imposture to promise those • !hinge, without the apposite explanations of the means by which they were to be accomplished ; for, indisputably, the stockholder had as much right to these eight millions, ni any elector of that county had to his freehold. There was one way in which the repeal of the ►ax might be effected—it was by increasing the value of our trade—it was by ex ' loading the right of trading to all classes, and put tirm-an end to monopolies ; but when candidates talked of economy and retrenchment, without ex planation, they indulged in language mischievous in the h►ghtst degree ; they were essentially preaching radicalism; they were exciting hope which could not be gratified ; and stimulating anxieties which could not be appeased. The same quackery with respect to Parhmentary Reform. Every Agentleßsin had his own little scheme, and the 'Hontintlble Seconder of Colonel Jollitfe had hit. He would -support the extension of the elective franchise to all great towns; somebody else had a different proposition; and so the variety of plans would proceed indefinitely. He was far from finding fault with Hon. Gentlemen for stating their plans of Reform, what he found fault with was their not being distinct mid definite on those points. What he, were he a Member of Parliament, would vote for, would embrace three objects; first, that all votes should be taken in the hundreds; one effect of that would be, that, on the present occasion, in the county of Surrey, they would have had several instead of the t-mall number of three candidates; again, many members of old families, and persons of worth and property in the county, were de terred from standing forward as candidates from the immense expences attendant upon a contest—ex pences which seriously involve, if not utterly ruin, men of very considerable property. Nothing could be mere certain than that it would be for the advantage of the constituency if the expences of elections were considerably diminished. The next point upon which he desired to see a change effected was the giving the right of voting to copy holders—a copy hold of inheritance was entitled to a vote as a freehold. The third change he should recommend would be to shorten the duration of Parliaments ; and he would tell them why. What was the use of a House of Commons ? The " Quarterly Review" a jouriad under the influence of the Duke of Welliegton,, had well said that if ever the time should arrive when the legislative should become more corrupt than the executive, the people would fly to a despotic government to shield them from their own representatives. That was a very just observation, and it was a fact beyond all question or dispute, that the Government of the Duke of Wellington was less corrupt than the House of Commons. He would return to his ques tion—what was the use of the House of Commons ? The King was necessarily ignorant of the sate end condition of the people; the members of the Go vernment were not much less so; they could have no practical personal acquaintance with the wants or condition of the people ; they were surrounded with place-hunters, who woud at any moment sacrifice the interest of the people to their lust of profit and emolument. As Lord Chatham had well observed, they knew nothing of the situation of the people unless inso far as the House of Commons might in form them of it. Unless the House of Commons lie, therefore, world charg e his brother freeholders condition t o o f t t h i st le G pe o o v p e i r e t: n i s t en w t aastrue altogether pictt' r picture e f e t s h s e . not to give their votes to their private friends, but to those who they, in their consciences, believed twoottliem. l would honestly would b dischargetly etie the l political privilege trustolitisal and theircoisfided duty to examine the candidates ott all important fttisluenydt mightliat t b h e eir pe id rf e e a c s tly w were crude if returned, would be senti ments of the electors who sent them there, and sicluriaer:lptetilthaleanattilodsfi:lictedihxfipressing in Parliament the senti therefore utterly unfit to advocate their cause. If electors voted for their private friend, they sent him to Parliament as their private, and not as their political capacity , they could have no ri g ht to cell political friend, and whe n n ot sent in his him to account for the manner in which he might dispose of his votes. He was sent for private pur poses, e suel l i se 71=71 s i iesim a u n i t d l he vote li had Briscoe,to pursue becausers't t he would well represent the people of Surrey.

He should at this point have concluded the remarks he offered to his brother freeholders, were it not for what fell from Mr. Briscoe at a lute meeting, when that gentleman stated that he (Mr. D.) had been solicited to be come a candidate for that county. That statement was true, and he thought it necessary to advert to it, as Iris passing it by in silence might naturally oc casion sotne surprise. His reason for declining the proposed honour was, that, its iris conscience, he did not think that he could do his duty, and he thought that, in refusing the support proffered to him, he had - best consulted the interests of the county end his own. lie begged to add, that his support of Mr. Briscoe did not arise from any partiality for that gentleman, but proceeded ott strictly public grounds. Mr. HAUSE (as we understood) rose to second the nomination of Mr. Briscoe. 'Though but an humble freeholder, he gave his most cordial support to the principles which Mr. Briscoe stood forward to advocate, and upon which ground he trusted that the people would step forward and strengthen his hands. Mr. DENISON rose to address the meeting amidst much cheering. He had not solicited one friend to attend that meeting, and therefore nothing could have been more gratifying to him than the reception which he met upon that occasion--certainly, his nomination was not unanimous—one hand was held up against him. He was perfectly sure that the Hon. Gentleman by whom it was so held up pro ceeded upon political grounds alone.--(Near, bear, M from r. H. Sumner.)—in return for that opposi tion he wished him health and happiness, and that he might long enjoy the honour which the town of Guildford fled conferred upon him.—(Applause.)— Pur himself, he could not desire any thing more gratifying than that if he lived to the honoured age of Nestor, he might annually, quarterly, monthly - , he put in nomination for the sake of enjoying the proud satisfaction of enjoying that Hon.

He again returned to the subject of the nego ciat ions between the two Committees, but was met with cries of Question." lie then proceeded to say, that he came there fairly to look the consti tuency of Surrey in the face—not one of whom could say that he had betrayed any trust reposed in • him—had left unredeemed any ple d g e he hail ever _ . . given—he had never broken faith with any [min— im had never abandoned any principles which he had once professed.—(Applause.)—le came for• ward a• the Mend and advocate of economy and retrenchment—of peace abroad, and of goodwill at home. As to what had been said about crude ideas— DatiataroND disclaimed any personal allusions. Mr. DENISoir resumed—He begged to say that I no irnprtant questions ever came before Parliament which he did not attempt and endeavour to make himself master of. In reply to what had fallen from an Hou. Gentleman near him (Mr. Barclay), he hoped that the next time that gentleman alluded to any conduct of his (Mr, Denison'a.),,lo would mike himself a little better acquainted with the frets. He (Mr. Denison) did not vote for the Portuguese war—he was not led away by the splendid eloquence of Mr. Canning upon that memorable night, when the question of the Portuguese was brought under the consideration of the House of Commons. lie WWI one of the few who voted against it ; and that very evening, dining with a party of friends, he got into a warm altercation upon the subject. He set himself in opposition to the immense majority of the House of Commons tvho voted for the war upon that occasion. lie was one of the few persons who said no against what he believed to be nearly three-fourths of the House of Commons.—(Ap plause.)—As*econotny, he had a word or two to say upon that point, and he would frankly tell what he meant by economy. lie wished for a reduction of taxation upon all that affected the productive in dusiry of the country ; he wished to see repealed the taxes upon soap, candles, coals, house and win- . dow tax. Ile wished to see all those repealed. Let an honest Minister tell the greedy place-hunters by whom every Government was surrounded, that the time had gone by when their desires could be grati fied, and there would be a general and sweeping re duction of all salaries, where adequate duties were not performed. Of course that recommendation could only apply to the higher order of placemen, not to the poor defenceless clerks, who laboured hard, and were not inordnately paid. That was the principle which he always had advocated, and always should continue to advocate. Mr. DRUMMOND—And upon that ground you always had my vo►e. Mr. DENISON, in continuation, defended himself from the imputation of coining forward there wi crude and undigested ideas. His wish was to pu an end to rotten boroughs ; he did not wish to see the county of Surrey disgraced by such places as Blotchingly, Gatton, Reigate.--(A voice in the crowd, " And Huslemcre.") The electors of that great county returned two Members to serve in Par liament, and these rotten boroughs returned eight. Was it right—was it proper—was it just ?—(Cries of " No, no, no.") He wished to see the House of Commons a representation of the people. lie wished now to say a word or two about the mode of election by ballot. At Epsom he expressed himself unfriendly to the practice of taking the vote by bal lot. He wished to see the freeholders come freely and manfully to the poll, and declare for whom they would vote. He certainly was quite willing to give full force to any argument in favour of vote by bal lot, which might be derived from the case of France ; the Deputies there were not as subservient to the wishes of the Crown as were the House of Commons in this country—(Cheers)--shut he fairly and freely admitted ; but such were his preju dices in favour of what he conceived to be old Eng lish frankness and candour, that he felt in nowise disposed to support an election by ballot. Colonel JoLtavytt said, that though the show of hands was not in his favour at Epsom, he would still offer himself to the favourable consideration of the freeholders of Surrey. Ha begged to inform all who heard him that carriages were in waiting at all the villages to convey them to Guildford. He bore no to any man ; be would proceed strictly upon public grounds, and he was determined to go on as long as it seemed the wish of the free holders that he should continue to do so, or as long us the law allowed. There was nothing new in the speeches of the Hon. Gentleman who had preceded him that would be necessary for him to reply to; he had heard nothing to make him alter any one of his opinions; he was an advocate for Reform and for retrenchment, but he would proceed with prudence. As a country gentleman he was opposed to vote by ballot. He had no other property except that which he possessed in land—he had been in Parliament 30 years, and never asked of any Ministry any thing for himself, or any member of his fatally, excepting one appointmint at Tortola. At his time of life, it was not to be supposed that he sought to rise by entering upon the service of the State as a public ollicer—a pension he could not look for, as he had done nothing to earn one. He stood upon his past conduct, and he referred to his brother freeholders to that as a test by which they might judge of the future. Mr. Datscou was received with the warmest ap plause. In addressing his brother freeholders, he said that he fully concurred with many of the gentle men who preceded him that they lived in eventful times—whether they looked to what bad recently passed in a neighbouring country, or whether they turned their eyes at home, they could not help see ing that they lived in eventful times; especially whey they looked to their own country, they could not be insensible to the overwhelming weight of debt which pressed upon them, and overwhelming load of taxation which pressed upon the productive industry of the country. The industrous classes were oppressed and borne down, and unless aometiting of sympathy were shown to theta by the Legislative and the Executive Government, the most disastrous consequences, he would be bound to say would in evitably follow. He thought that the object of electors, in times like the present, should be to re turn such men to Parliament as would form a House of Commons really sympathising with the people, and feeling for their distress. Now he put it to his brother electors to say, was there that full, fair, and free representation of the people in the Commons House of Parliament which there ought to be Y--- (Cries of " No, no, no l") In times, then, like the present, it behoved a great and enlightened metro politan county like that of Surrey, to set an example to the test of the country, which, if wisely and eilis ciently lollowed, would prove fraught with salutary consequences. The electors of such a count y , and the electors of all count i e s, should deliberate well before they gave their votes—votes that were due to men principles and of iinpartiai other. - If such votes seat him to Parliament , he li de should ilt not be rendered to any acionnetelrue:; of iere e a t wn ssured them that he would serve them zea l ou sly and faithfully : and he trusted that, during too contest which was about to commence, he should not do anything unbecoming tt gentleman, ot unworthy of one who was a candidate for their st ance, He then adverted to the p meet Inge at V -7 RICK CLOTHS.

He was not the enemyeeef that gentleman personally, but he was and should Ie o's : . posed to him politically. He was not opposed to' him as a gentleman, or as a man, but he was posed to him as a politician. He bad already no small share of Parliamentary influence—he com manded two seats in the House of Commons, and now he sought to sit for another place hineself. It was for the electors of Surrey to say whether or not that wish of his should be gratified. He (Mr. B.) concurred in many particulars with their old Member Mr. Denison, but those opinions were not then formed for the grit timeee-they were formed after much anxious and mere! deliberation. It must be fully in the recollection of all who heard him, that at the feet election for that county he took a very decided and active part I but with all his epee. ment in the principles of Mr. Denison, he was not a Whig—he belonged to no party---but in little else did they differ. The declarations which he made were, he could assure them, not made for sinister purposes ;he entertained none such—he gave them his opinions on all points fairly and honestly, and he came forward with the view of affording to the county of Surrey the means of asserting its inde pendence, and, in the event of hie being returned, of zealously and faithfully discharging his duty—be wished to give them an opportunity of asserting their political honour, and he desired so misses" an occasion of vindicating his own, He did believe . that in the county of Surrey there wee that degree of public spirit, patriotism, and lore of independence upon which such an opportunity would not be throwta away-0 at It would not submit to the political degra dation with which it was threatened—be had in every , quarter received the fullest assurances that the hearts of the people were with him,—(Appiause end some cries of " No.")—He regretted the necessity which closed him to come forward et the eleventh hour—many more able might have been called upon to represent them, but he came forward fr,em a e: sense of duty any) honour, and nothing bet a seine of duty would, under present circumstances, ltttve celled him from his retirement; and, therefore, he might the more safely promise for himself that he would serve them faithfully, zealously, and truly.-- He regretted much that it had not been in his power to pay his personal respects to every individual free holder—they were all well entitled to that mark of consideration, but unfortunately it had only been in his power to visit the large towns. He need not say that he very willingly attended the public ings that had been held upon the present occasion for the purpose of tinselling any question that might be put to him connected with his political princie pies. He could sincerely say that in no respect had he deceived them. He had attended meetings in Kingston, in Croydon, GodahnUee, Pernharn, and three meetings in the borough, and the decision which attendance on those meeting' led him to wee; that he should not discharge his duty to the public and his fellow-electors, did he not come fUrseerd and offer himself for the representation of Surrey. He should now endeavour to be as short at pee- Bible, for at that hour they must be pretty needy exhausted, and already anxious to go to the poll. He would say but this—their cause must succeed. The freeholders of Surrey would set an example to the rest of the kingdom—they would remember that.. in its annals were recorded the fact, that in that county the Charter of Liberty was signed; that„ they had always stood forward as the dauntless ad vocates of freedom; and he trusted that now, when . , those principles were about to be put to a severe test they would not shrink from the performance of their duty. lie concluded by declaring leis opinion, that Mr. Denison would be retie ned by an immense majority, but that his own friends %You'd also achieve , a victory, Let them but persevere, and victory would be theirs. He then called upon them to give three cheers for the honour of Surrey—which they, did most cordially. Mr. CnAwtottn then addressed the Court, en-, tering into some explanations respecting the tier ciations between the Committees, which also bad, been adverted to by Mr. Briscoe. Mr. DENISON explained ; and after a few word from Mr. HANCE, in defence of the conduct of Mr. Briscoe's Committees, Mr. MADEILLY said, his brother electors and he were called upon to elect two Members to serve in, Pediment. His Hon. Priem' near him, their old and tried representative, had stated his ease ; and he (Mr.M.) would vouch for that case; and he would vouch that if they sent that gentleman to Parliament; his conduct would not disappoint their just expecta tions. The Hon. Gentleman who proposed Mr. Briscoe had asked them (those who had been in Parliament) what they had done ? He (Mr. M.) would answer, they had done all they could. It was asked what they had done for Reform ? He would say they had met it, and boldly—they had adopted it so far as their individual votes, in the most general form in which it could be presented. The Gallant Officer who stood forward that day as a candidate; told them that he would support Reform; but how had he supported! it—where was his vote? The question of Reform had been presented to him in the most general shape that it was possible—as a proposition for a Committee to inquire whether a Reform in Parliament be or be not necessary, but that would not suit him. The people might ask their representatives in Parliament, what they had done with the rotten boroughs ? Ile would ask what had been done with the rotten borough of Potersfield.—(Cheers.)—There were eighteotten bo roughs in Surrey--and only two Members for the county. Oh 1 he was reminded that Bletchingly was an exception, taking it even so, there were six to two, which most men would adroit were no trifling odds, what chance had two against six. Now with so many rotten borough Members, he was not willing to add another of the class in the form of a county Representative. He entreated his brother freeholders to make a strenuous effort to preserve the small share of independence left to them, and not increase the six or eight rotten borough Members at present in the county. He might be asked what he 'Weisel( would do upon the subject of reform; Ile was no advocate for universal suffrage--he was neither a Whig nor a Tory, and yet he belonged to a Tory large party—he belonged to the party of the people, and he stood up there in his place to state what had been said about rotten boroughs--they had met the question manfully, but they had been borne down. If he were asked what be should do in the way of practical reform for the rotten boroughs of that county, he thould say, transfer the francliiies to the great towns, to Kingston, to Croydon, and other places of large population—give it to the four largest towns in the county. Let them ask their candidates if they would vote even for that reform, end if they received au answer in the negative, let the freeholders of the county of Surrey reform themselves„ and not let their county be made a rotten borough. As to Mr. Denison, though a Whig, which he (Mr. M.) was not, he (Mr. 1).) had done his duty, and he should therefore give that gentleman his most cordial support.
