LORD LOWTHER, Chairman. ! cumtnittee-Room, Spring Gardens Coffee-house, Apia 25, 1831, Where the Committee sit daily. TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF TILE CITY OF CHICHESTER. GENTLEMEN, IBEG to offer you my Congratulations on the prompt and energetic conduct of our gracious Sove reign in dissolving the Parliament. The Royal Preroga tive, I will venture to assert, was never exercised in a manner more honourable to the Monarch, or more satis factory to the nation. It had long been manifest that the opponents of Reform, reckless of consequences, were determined, if possible, to defeat altogether the measure brought forward by the Mi nisters, or—failing in that object—so to mutilate and im pair it, under the pretext of beneficial modifications, as to deprive it of its original character and tendency, and ren deiltstaaacceptable to the peoph.. I rejoice that the Sovereign has interposed, and decided in favour of the real friends of the Constitution. The dissolution, however, renders it incumbent on me again to declare myself a Candidate for the honour of repre senting you ;—which I do with all confidence naturally arising from the numerous promises of support I have already received, and with all the thankfulness which your great kindness is calculated to inspire. With sentiments of gratitude and esteem, Believe me, Gentlemen, Your faithful and ohedi-nt Servant, Chichester, April 25, 1831. ARTHUR LENNOX. BATH, APRIL 25, 1831.

Mr. HOBBOUSE, as soon as the cheers with which he was welcomed had subsided, said that it gave him the greatest satisfaction to meet on that occa sion one of the most numerous and respectable as semblies of the inhabitants of Westminster he ever had the honour of addressing. It reminded him of those glorious times at the earliest period of his connexion with the electors, when they struggled in uncertain hopes, unsupported, and almost alone, for that cause which now the King, the majority of the Aristocracy, and the intelligence of the people, had determined to bring to a happy issue. —(Loud cheers.) When they were told that the immortal Bill for Reforming the representation was not sa tisfactory to the people, he would say, look here at this vast assemblage—(Cheers)—of men, united for the great purpose of saving the country from the machinations of a defeated but still desperate fac tion.—(lmmense applause.) There were persons who talked of thb great body of the people as being unfit to be entrusted with the elective franchise, and as being unfit for liberty; but he could point out to them a body of the Aristocracy, which recently af forded one of the most agreeable, one of the pret we be tiest and most decent specimens of good conduct, propriety, and order, that could well be exhibited.-- (Laughter.) " I allude (-aid he) to the occasion roonuiliimicohn‘gveerilLad(aclmheoesrtscaond laughter)—whenmetoblos,sith th those people, who are so fond of preaching about good manners, who think that there is a broad line drawn by nature between their high mightinesses and our seives—when they, who are sent into the House by persons who ought to be the best judges of good manners—(Much laughter)—presented a miserable exhibition of impotent rage, of detected cunning, of defeated malice, driven to despair.—( Immense cheering.)—He asked the meeting, did they ever see human nature in its lowest and most debased state? If so, they could form some notion of the faces of these gentlemen whom he saw on the Op position benches on the occasion to which he alluded. There were some occasions on which it was not fit to mention names; but thete was one Hon. Gentleman who took so conspicuous a part on the occasion, and seemed so desirous of making himself distinguished, that it could not be very in decorous to mention his name—(Oh, we know him —Peel)--yea; be meant the Right Hon. the late Member for Tamworth. He could assure the meeting, that although he was not much given to the " melting mood," and although he bad never been much disposed to feel compassion for that Right Hon. Gentleman, yet, when he looked at him on that day—when he saw his face and his gestures —for the sake of " auld tang syne" he pitied him. —(Uproarious laughter.) He begged him, as ear nestly as he could express himself by signs, not to expose himself to the contempt of the House and to the derision of the people.—(Cheers.) He had since heard that the Right lion. Baronet subscribed 50,000/. for the support of the boroughmonger , and corruption at the ensuing election.— (Groans, arid cries of " Shame, shame.") But much good may it do him.—(Laughter.) " I wish (said Mr. H.) he bad subscribed 100,0001., and that he should find 100,000 electors to take his money, and to laugh at him afterwards." He hoped that the Noble Duke who lived near the Strand would sub scribe three times that money. lie hoped the Duke would manure the lands of all Northumberland with his Bank notes, and that every el- ctor would drink a glass of good ale at the expence of that Peer, and go - then to vote for the popular candidate. The Honourable Baronet who subscribed that large sum, for the impose of deceiving and de frauding the pt epic of England, thought, no doubt. that lie could not better employ the money which 'mad, no doubt, been honestly earned by his father. That gentleman had ventured to assert, that there was a conspiracy entered into for the purpose of carrying the Reform Bill. Who, then, was at the head of that conspiracy ? King William the Fourth. — (Long -continued cheers.) The next great conspi rators happened to be the thirteen gentlemen, com monly known by the dtsignation of the Cabinet Mi n,sters. Then came into the combination more that one-half the great landed proprietors of England—. seven thousand bankers and merchants. Next, th people themselves were represented as joining thi dark conspiracy to destroy their own liberties — (Cheers)--and, lastly, the Press was the worst all this numerous band of conspirators.—(Laughter.) So these gentlemen had found out at last that the did not like the Press—(Laughter)—and, amongs the rest, the Right Hon. Sir R. Peel spoke of ti c infuria►ed menaces of the Press. He remembered to have heard the same same Right lion. Baronet not two years ago, when he made a long, elaborate, and not inelegant speech, in praise of that vet - ) Press, and of that very part of the Press which he now_denouncerl ; in fact, in praise of the newspaper of which he, the other night, so vehemently com plained. lie (Mr. H.) remembered to have see' 3 somewhat similar complaint of conspiracy in the preface to the history of a great man called Jon Ithat Wild, who, in some points of his character, had re small resemblance to othergreat men. Well,theautlioi of that work (which,at the time of its publication, wa considered to relate facts, and to represent circum stances so like those ofevery-day occurrence,that it was called a " true history"), tells us that an ancestor o' the great man was put to death by a conspiracy ; that, forsooth, twelve honest men were put into a box, and, having come to an understanding among themselves, they conspired to hang him.—(Laugh ter.) So it was with the boroughmongers. The) were conspired against just in the 'same way. — (Repeated shouts of laughter.) They had been long upon trial.—(From the crowd, " Aye, mucl. too long for us !") It was true, they had pleaded not guilty ; but they had after all put in a very sneaking plea. For _Messrs. Goulburn, and William Peel, and even the Peel of Peels, had admitted that the boroughmongers were in some small degree guilty, and that some Reform was indeed Ind.:spew sible.—( Much laughter.) There were many topics connected with Reform upon which it was unneces sary for him to address them. The electors of West minster had long had their lesson by heart and in their hearts.—(Cheers.) They knew their duty, and he knew they would fulfil it.—(Great cheering.) He entreated them to act upon the advice of his Hon. Friend behind him (S . r F. Burdett), and to per suade all those around them, over whom they have any influence, not to sell their birth-right at this time, when the people were united to obtain that which, though long sought and long delayed, they were now, at last, upon the point of securing—a full, fair, and flee representation in the Commons House of Parliament.—(lmmense cheering.) He would now only say that they (the electors of Westminster) could confidently count upon him —(Cheers)—should they continue to him the high honour of again representing them where the struggle must ultimately be terminated—(Cheer.) — and he trusted that the time was not far distant when he should have an opportunity of congratu lating them upon the happy result of their perse vering labours in the cause of Parliamentary Re form.—(Cheers for some minutes.) Thanks being voted to the High Bailiff for his spirited and patriotic conduct in calling the meeting, which separated, after cheers three times thrice re peated for " The King." THE CITY OF LONDON. Yesterday, a general meeting of the Livery of London was held at the London Tavern, Bishops gate-street, for the purpose of abining •the most feasible means of securing the return of four Mem bers who would pledge themselves to vote fur Lord John Russell's Reform Bill. There were upwards of five hundred of the Livery present. Mr. PERKINS presided. The CHAIRMAN said, that it was not necessary for hm to enter into the present question of Reform, or its merits; for they had been so fully discussed before Parliament, that the whole nation was in pos session of them. The question in his mind simply resolved itself into this, with respect to the rotten boroughs, where corruption prevailed. What did men buy for ? Why, to sell again.—( Applause.) And the result, therefore, must be, that they would sell either themselves or the country.-4 Cheers.) When the public spirit on this question broke forth, the King, whom they all loved and venerated— (Cheers) —thought that it would be better to change `his Counsellors; and in so doing he had collected together a set of men of the greatest ability. But the cry against them was, that they were not men of business; but the answer to that was, that f or f or ty years they had been unjustly excluded from office, and it therefore could not be expected that they did not display that aptitude which arose from long practice. The question of Reform, however, was now in the hands of the people of England ; and if they lost it now, it was their own fault.—(Cheers.) If they did not carry it now, they never would.-- (Cheers.) The moral truth which the people of England had to establish was, that the Constitution did give them a power, which they were determined should no longer be in the hands of individuals. He would read to them the resolutions which would be proposed to them seriatim:—They were to the following effect : " 1. That this meetingdesires, in the first place, to ex press the deepest sense of his Majesty's paternal anxiety for the welfare and happiness of his people, and the most heartfelt gratitude for the unequivocal proof which it has pleased his Majesty to give of it in the dissolution of Par liament ; thereby referring to his people the ultimate arh;_ tration of trineasure, in which his Majesty and his Mi nisters argiopposed by a certain party, who have hitherto enjoyed an undue influeuce in the representation of the country. a 2 .

CLARK said, that the question had prc luced the most dewily struggle, witleh was scarcely yet at its height. The imporanee of the example ,f the city of London, therefore, became marefest 'or if it was in the power of the House of Com mons to thwart a great question like this proposed I,y the Government, suppored by the King, ant' ulvocated by the people, they had a right to doubt the adequate representation of that House.-.--(Loud cheers.) When the Bill had been lost in Parliament the Ministers had resorted to the King; and the Kng, in the most constitutional manner, had re orted to the people; by which he had shewn hi• confidence in the nation on the one hand, and their right to consider the question on the other.—(Loud cheers.) And would the Livery of London slumber under such circumstances? Would they not rather rouse all their energies ? As yet they might not know whom they had to support; but at least they knew whom they had to oppose. They must opposi llr. Ward.—(Continued cheers.) Every one was 'early to admit that that gentleman carried a high . arid frank bearing with him; evety one would admit that he was a most respectable man.—(Hear, hear.) , But it was because he was a respectable man that he was more dangerous to the cause of Reform. Mr. PERRING said, that though this question of Reform was sent to the people by the King, yet they should remember how small a portion of the people had the privilege of interfering.—(Heir, hear.) It was, therefore, for them to set a worthy example to the rest of the empire of the course they ought to pursue. Let them remember, that in this case they could not split their votes without splitting the great principle.—(Loud cheers.) For himself, he cared not who the four representatives were ; but he would take care, if no one else did, to be on the hustings, for the purpose of obtaining from them all a most unqualified pledge on the tepic of Reform.— (Cheers.) He meant no disparagement to Mr. 'hard; but this he would say, that no one could give that gentleman a vote and also vote for a refor mer, without saying that he had no pretence either to principle or honesty.—(Cheers.) It should be remembered, that the decision to which they were about to come was not merely the decision of that meeting; by means of the Press it would be dis- , persed throughout the country ; anti as the London election was one of the first to take place, the ques tion was, whether the city should shew such unani mity and decision as should be an example for all other Corporations and electors.—(Cheers.) Mr. R. Smcrit said, that it was probably known to many that lie had voted for Mr. Ward at the last two elections, because he believed him to be a most honourable and respectable man, but he felt bound to sacrifice his friend to the public cause—(Loud cheers)—that ought to be the principle with all who wanted the great question of Reform to be carried. The borouglimongers, they might be sure, would not die without a struggle: they might already be seen writhing in their agony, and making the most desperate efforts against the cause of the people : unless, therefore, the people were prepared to give up their private partialities for the public cause, they could not hope to succeed in their endeavours. Other speakers having addressed the meeting, all the resolutions were agreed to unanimously till the last was brought forward. After a good deal of de. sultory conversltion, it was at length arranged and earried Unanimnticly, in ah.po.f an amended rc,,,u1.- tion to the last, and was read by the Chairman, that the meeting, and any of the Livery who might choose to enter their names, should form an open Com mittee' and that the nomination of the four candi dates should not be entered into on that occasion. Thanks were then voted to the gentlemen who had called the meeting together, and to the Chair man; after which the meeting separated. SOUTHWARK. MEETING OF COL. JONES'S FRIENDS. Yesterday evening a meeting took place at the Three Tuns Inn, in the Borough, of electors in the interest of Colonel Jones. The meeting was nu merously attended, and business commenced soon after seven o'clock. Mr. RAYNARD, in the Chair, in opening the bu siness of the meeting, said that the question which they were then met to decide was, whether or not Colonel Jones should be put in nomination ?—(A voice in the crowd—" He above all men ought to be a Memb(r of Parliament.") _ Mr. BROCKSOP moved the first resolution, to the effect, that the meeting was of opinion that the principles of Colonel Jones, his talents and know ledge, rendered him a fit and proper person to re present the borough of Southwark ; but that, in order to prevent division amongst the friends of Reform, the meeting would advise him to resign his pretensions for the present, lest any disagree ment amongst the supporters of liberal principles might endanger the return of Mr. Calvert; but the industry, talent, and entire devotion of Colonel Jones to the great cause of Reform, merited their deepest gratitude. , Mr. WALKER seconded the motion. Mr. ARROWSMITII supported the resolution, and proceeded to charge Mr. Hall with inconsistency in his conduct with respect to the introduction to the borough both of Sir Robert Wilson and of Lord John Russell, when the Noble Lord was invited, but did not stand for the borough.—(Upon this a scene of great confusion ensued, some persons pre-- sent maintaining that the conduct or consistency of Mr. Hall had nothing to do with the matter before the meeting. It was in vain that the Chairman en deavoured to restore order.) Colonel JONES at length rose, and was received with loud cheering. He besought the meeting not to transform themselves into that ill-behaved body the House of Lords—(Loud laughter and cheering) —he entreated them to controul their feelings. The resolution was then, amidst much tumult, put to the meeting, and declared by the Chairman to have been carried A vote of thanks to Colonel Jones was then unanimously agreed to. Colonel JONES then rose and addressed the meet ing, observing upon the painful and difficult situa tion in which he was then placed ; but before he said any thing personally relating to himself, he would say, that their warmest and best thanks were due to that noble-minded and patriotic King, who, by a single act, established their liberties upon a solid and immutable basis. Could he fail in that expression of gratitude to which such an act was entitled, he should be undeserving the protection of any body of men, and worthy to be execrated by every man in the British Empire. The extraordi nary firmness exercised by his Majesty was beyond all praise. He knew something of what passed ir. the interior of the Palace, and there never existed a deeper conspiracy than that which was formed to deter the Sovereign from gratifying the vtishes of his people, and promoting their true in terest. He was not only assailed by the menaces of his male relatives, but the tears of the female members of the Royal Family. He was beset, actually besieged in every corner of the Puluce and told by more than one, that to agree to a dins, lution would amount to signing his own abdication. Ile next proceeded to call the attention of the meet int,► to the inesti ma bl e serv i ce con f erre d upon the nation by Lord Grey, for he was the author of the great Bill, and the other Ministers were but instru ments in his hands. He should now say a fev% words of himself, which, on t h e present occasion, was no very agreeable task. He assured them that he bad not been induced to come amongst there from any feeling of personal ambition, for that very tie riling a carriage was brought to his door, and money offered to pay his expences, with an it vitae tion to stand for a very important and populous place. He then reminded them of his introduction to the borough, the motives which led him to with draw upon that occasion; the delicacy he felt towards Sir Robert 'Wilson, it having been said that he (Colonel Jones) had, by one of his letters in the public prints, put an extinguisher on Sir Robert, l and, therefore, he had resolved not to come forward lin opposition to their late Member—but the com mission of a political . fdo de se left him at perfect liberty. They recently had presented to them the brother of a great man, but that circumstance of . ts• If was not sufficient to show that the brother of the great man had any claims of his own to the reitre emtation of any independent place; but eo popular was the Lord Chancellor at the present moment, that if he sent his wig to the people of Southwark, they would adopt it as a substitute for a Member.—(Laughter.) Whether he sent hie brother, his wig,- or h is puppy, they would have the nominee of the Lord Chancellor and no one else, though, on principle, the Lord Chancellor ought to be ashamed to send his brother amongst thern.e=(gotee applause and much confusion.) TI e Lord ChaneaUr N't a s the patron of Law Reform, oul proposed making the Masters in Chancery Judges; he ought, therefore, not to encourage a Ma-ter to become a Member of the House of Com mons. He did not resign for the purpose of enabling Mr. Brougham to come in, but to prevent a collision amongst the true Reformers.—(A voice in the crowd, " Go on, we will genre you plenty of plumpers.) He proceeded to observe, that Lord John Russell did exceedingly wrong in coming on the preceding evening to interfere on behalf of Mr. Brougham. It was conduct highly objectionable on the part of one connected with the Administration; but it was, like the rest, in perfect accordance with the eri3 villainy of the Whige.--(Great applause.) .He added that Sir Francis Burdett had promised_ to attend the meeting of Mr. Brougham's friends, but did not come, hearing that Colonel Jones was in the field. Whenever returned to jParliament he had determined to labour by the side of Joseph Hume arid Daniel O'Connell. The meeting soon afterwards broke up, List nothing approaching unanimity appeared ; on the contrary, a large proportion of those present seemed greatly disappointed at the retirement of Colonel Jones. COUNTY OF YORK. Yesterday a pretty numerous and highly respect able meeting was'held at.the Freemasons' Tavern, for the purpose of adopting measures to obtain the return of Members for the county opposed to the Reform Bill. Sir JOHN LowTHER, having been called to the Chair, said, that in consequence of the meeting of some of the Yorkshire freeholders at the Thatched House Tavern, on Saturday, in favour of Members who supported the Bill, it was incumbent on those now assembled to take prompt measures to counter act such influence. Resolutions, embodying this speech, and appoint.. ing a Committee to take measures to procure the return of Members opposed to the Reform Bill, were then moved, and Mr. M. Morritr, the Hon. Mr. Lascelles, Mr. Hall, and the Hon. Mr. Dun combe (a candidate), addressed the meeting. They were of opinion that the Reform Bill, which would almost solely be considered by the next Parliament, was calculated to alter the Constitution, and do mischief to the country. Besides, the measures adopted at the Thatched House Tavern would, un less opposed, do away with the independence of Yorkshire. They were not enemies to Refi•rm, but they thought that a measure not so extensive might he passed. That could be amended, but the present Bill, from its sweeping nature, never could, nor re paired if it did cause mischief. The resolutions were then passed, and it was agreed that all present .hould (h.., Thanks having bco. voted to the Chairman, the meeting separated. The following is said to be an authentic ac count of the number ofprisoners, pieces of artillery, ammuni tion, money, &c. which have been captured by the Polish troops between the Slat of March and the sth of April, the whole of which have arrived at Warsaw : " 12,300 Privates, 120 Officers, 8 Colonels, 3 Generals, General Apothecary, 3 Field Apothecaries, 1 Bishop, 2 Priests, and a Church establishment. " MONEY-88,000 rubles, 20,000 ducats. " CANNON-21 pieces, with harness. &c. " SUNDRIES-100,000 shirts, 7 standards, 60 bag gage waggons, 50 powder ditto, 11 Officers' equipages." On the sth of April the Poles also succeeded in defeat ing the Russians ; en which occasion the numbers were as follow : " 10,000 killed, 4,000 prisoners, and 16 pieces of artillery." This last engagement was with Generals Geismar and Rosen's detachments, which are supposed to consist of about 80,000 men. General Rosen was am?ngst the prisoners.—Morning Herald. Mr. WILLIAM YATES PEEL, the new can didate for the University of Cambridge, has thought proper, naturally enough, to apologize for his presump tion in coming forward to represent that Learned Body. After all, however, Mr. P. himself is not so much to blame as they who have the audacity to nominate him. But we presume that the Tory portion of the University, as GARROW said of Corporations, " never blush." Is it to be believed that the person now put forward to repre sent one of the leading Universities of this country, can have given utterance to the following trash?. Yet he is reported, in the Mirror of Parliament, part 79, page 710, to have spoken as follows :—" This may be my dying speech ; but though Ido not contend that my nerves are stronger than any other gentleman's, I cannot declare with the Honourable Member for Mielhurst, that when I heard this monstrous proposition made, it took away my breath ;' and I will tell the Noble Lord opposite why it did not have th.it effect upon me : it was Sir, be cause I was satisfied that the dose would not go down ; I felt that the purge would not pass. Sir, the practice of the Noble Lord certainly differs from that of physicians in general ; some of whom profess to cure, while others adopt the principle of kill or cure. The Noble Lord, however. combined both systems, and acts upon the more general principle of kill and cure ! The Noble Lord's mode of proceeding reminds me of the manner in which nurses per.. suade children to take physic, by telling them that it will do them a great deal of good ; and that if they swallow it like goad children, it shall be the last dose; provided, too, they do not spit any of it out. So the Noble Lord pro ceeds, for he tells us it will do us much good, and so forth ; but he forgets one very important thing—be omits the accompanying bribe, the bit of sugar ; nor does he promise, like the nurse, that if we swallow this doss it shall be the last. And why may we not have other practitioners come forward at a future time to admi nister physic to us? Why may we not have Doctor Hume and Doctor Warburton coming forward 9 Indeed I believe that the Hon. Member for Bridport has already given notice of motion for introducing the vote by ballot at elections ; that, I suppose, will be followed by some practitioner proposing his mixture of annual Parliaments and universal suffrage. Ido not know whether the Hon. Member for Preston is in his place, but without meaniug any disrespect to him, and trusting his good nature will pardon my allusion to him, I am quite satisfied, that if the Bill is carried, that Hon. Gentleman would nut allow the Parliament to sit three months without saying, ' You have not got half far enough yet—try Hunt's matchless !!'
