140 11ey was bettire him ; and it is feared, that unless aided by the bribery oath, the poor parsons will turn the scale against ! t it' and the Solicitor-General. As an instance of the progress t l f the Repeal question, it is stated that the Liberal Candidates College have created many opponents, by Mr. Ponsonby's %ring called, in his address, that measure an INSaNE one. The qege Constituency is reckoned to be up war d s o f 1,700, o f "horn 150 or 200 are thought to be ardent Repeaters. Sheil is up for Tipperary County with a Mr. O'Callaghan, Hugh Cave having declined f rom some un d e fi ne d reasons ; an d " l ough there is a strong Conservative opposition, Shell's return least, is thought to be certain. O'Connell has left town to n it Tliort him and other Repeaters in the South. Were it not for 7 14 question of Repeal, the result of the election throughout 4 tland might be everywhere anticipated. But this has caused 41 ch a split among all parties, that all future returns will be Itecarious until ballot be introduced : for the fears and inclina 'ions of the constituents will be at war with each other till moment for decision. There is one consolation, however, the present aspect of affairs, that no Ministry could long I ,! a intain itself e , that will not sedulously set to w ork, in carrying Reform Bill into full and immediate effect. CITY OF DUBLIN.—We have heard that Mr. Sergeant P errin does not intend to contest the city of Dublin.—D u bli n gaming Register. Daniel O'Connell, Esq., M.P., left town on Saturday for Carlow. From thence Mr. O'Connell proceeds to Clonmel, to Znvass for Mr. Ronayne, and for Mr. Sheil in the county. He k en goes to D ongarvan, Y oug h al, an d C or k , to canvass f or t h e ` 4 "Pealers there, and he will next be in Kerry, to meet his con ktitUents. He returns to Dublin by Limerick and the King's "cuntY.—Dublin Morning Register. DOWN (COUNTY).—It is not expected that any opposi. :en will be offered in this county to the return of the late e P r esentatives, Lords Castlereagh and Arthur Hill. It is a singular thing to see two officers in his Majesty's 17 7 ' i ee--Lieutenant Macnamara, Bth Hussars, and Cornet 1 3', 7th Hussars—going into Parliament for the purpo se o f ..„."47c l eeing a repeal of the Union between both countries; the winer in Ennis, the other in Galway.—Limerick Chronicle. QUEEN'S COUNTY.—Dominick Brown has not yet re. nor will; and Sir H. Parnell will be returned for the Queen's County, in spite of the machinations of Old Treachery 414 k's tail. The Queen's County Club resolved to supp o rt re . , 71 candidates on Monday last, but the parish priests of the Queen's County had assembled previously, and come to a re. Nution that they would not, individually or collectively, op. kin any Member who would pledge himself against the pre kit tithe system. Dublin Evening Post. bUNGARVAN.—The Hon. G. Lamb has arrived in Dun. kvan, and has commenced his canvass of that town, and as nt With great success. The Hon. Gentleman's return is quite ter tain.—Dublin Post. LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING. DECEMBER 12, 1832. So far as they have vet gone, the elections are decidedly in favour of Government. In the metropolitan, and many of the neighbouring districts, this is particularly the case, where a Tory candidate scarcely dares to show himself. In the provinces, Lord STORMONT and Sir J. SCARLETT are almost the only members of this precious faction who have been enabled to achieve a double triumph. We wish them joy of their success, which, however, will not be without a pretty considerable draw-back, since its only end will be to compel them, night after night, to witness personally from that side of the House, which old lawyers and promising young sprigs of aristocracy always find most uncomfortable sitting, the triumph of Ministers on all those great questions which the Tories have so strenuously opposed. Sir JAMES SCARLETT and Lord STORMONT enter the House of Commons just at the fitting season to witness the last deathblow of their party, in ail those various measures of popular regeneration which they have wasted so mull time and breath in denouncing. Truly this is a great triumph to boast of! Mr. HERRIES, the notorious head of one of the most preposterously pensioned fami lies in the kingdom, has, we perceive, achieved at Harwich the same queer species of victory. But these are rare instances. The majority of the elections bid fair to turn out wholly in favour of Ministers. We were compelled yesterday, by a regard for truth, to contradict the statement of a Morning Contemporary on the subject of the Marquis of PALMELLA'S mission to this country. It ap pears, on further inquiry, that Lord PALMER STON has not given the Marquis of PALMELLA any reason to suppose that the Cabinet has adopted any liberal views on the Portuguese question ; but as his Lordship continues to ex press a great desire for the success of Don PEDRO, and as the communications from Spain go far towards removing the reasons assigned by our Government for the bare recognition of the Portuguese Regency, it is to be hoped that so desirable a result is not far distant. The re presentatives of Don PEDRO in this country feel assured, that the moral effect on Portugal of a recognition of the Regency by the British Cabinet would immediately turn the scale in favour of Don PEDRO, and produce the over throw of the LT..urper, by the desertion of many of his chief partisans and supporters, without the necessity of further sacrifices on the part of the legitimate SOVEREIGN. Such a recognition would be a very cheap way of securing the as cendancy of British interests in Portugal, and at the same time of promoting the cause of liti. manity. An expre s s h as b een rece i ve d f rom P ar i s, bringing the Papers of Monday, and the Mes sager des Chambres, dated yesterday. They are unusually barren of news, and are devoted to observations on the affairs of Belgium, which, at the present crisis, create the greatest interest not only in Paris, but throughout the whole country. A most important telegraphic despatch was received on Monday, by Marshal SouLT, from the Duke of ORLEANS and Marshal GERARD, at the head-quarters of the French army, before the Citadel of Antwerp ; after which a Cabinet Council was immediately held, at which the KING presided. Extraordinary despatches were sent off in the course of the day to King LEOPOLD, at Brussels, and to the Commander in-Chief of the army. Ac was reported at the Bourse that Marshal GERARD found it quite impracticable to take the citadel without he was allowed to attack it, not only on the country side, but from the city itself; and that great dissatisfaction had already began to show itself among the troops, as King LEOPOLD and the English Commis sioner, Colonel CARADOC, were averse to the rench making any invasion from the city side, as they wish it to remain neutral, lest General CHASSE might open his fire upon it, and reduce it to ashes. Marshal GERARD, it is said, was determined that he phA , d , l either carry his plan of attack into execution, without restriction, or he would resign the commend. The express from Government was to allow the Marshal to act. News from the army, is, there fore looked to with the greatest interest in Paris. The Prussian Ambassador and Lord GRAN VILLE have had several interviews with the Duke de BROGLIE, Minister for Foreign Affairs. The former has been exerting his influence to bring about negotiations between the Belgians and Dutch, which the French Government has refused to comply with. The news from Spain represent the country in a very unsettled state, and the greatest firm ness is required on the part of the QUEEN Regent, FERDINAND not yet having assumed his power, and the Ministers, to suppress the intrigues of the Priests and Carlist party. An envoy had arrived, it was asserted, at Madrid from Don PEDRO. Great exertions are making by the French Ministry to induce Lord PALMERSTON to recognise the Regency of Oporto in the name of Queen Donna MARIA, and put an end to the reign of the Usurper. Paris continues tranquil, and Ministers, since M. DUPIN has taken office, are becoming stronger and stronger. GENERAL ELECTION (THIS DAY.) MARY LEB ONE. This being the day appointed by the Act for the official declaration of the poll, a great number of electors, shortly after 9 o'clock, begun to assemble in front of the hustings. Sir W. HORNE, accompanied by an immense number of his friends, arrived first, and was received with loud cheers. Immediately afterwards Mr. Portman arrived, and was warmly greeted by loud expressions of approbation Sir S. WHA I.LEY, and Mr. MURPHY were, on their arrival, received with acclamations, and cries of " No Horne and bribery." A few minutes after 10, a multitude considerably up wards of 4,000, having congregated, Sir P. LAURIE, the Returning officer, came forward and staled that he was able to open the seals, and reckon i up the votes as they appeared on the several district polling books. Before that operation, which occupied upwards of an hour, was completed, Sir P. LAURIE commended the electors for their good conduct during the election, in which they had presented a conspicuous example to other boroughs. He also re ferred to some attacks made in the public prints, and hoped their good conduct that day would give them the lie. The eight booths which had been erected had been sent back to the builders, and not the slightest spoliation had taken place, and by the smallness of the expense in curred, he hoped, as Returning-officer, to show the public on what an economical scale the election had been conducted. A board was then exhibited, show ing the exact state of the poll, in the order in which the candidates had first addressed the electors. Porttnan 4317 Murphy ......... 913 Horne 33201 Jones Whalley ..............2165 At each distinct announcement of the numbers, loud cheers, intertning'ed with groans, continued for some time. Sir P. LAURIE then declared that Mr. Portman and Sir William Horne had been duly elected for the borough, which was followed by loud and long continued applause. Mr. PORTMAN then presented himself. He thanked the electors for the honour they bad conferred en him, and f; ir the good temper they bad manifested during the election. He trusted they would hear him while he addressed them in a few words, as one of theii representatives bound to watch over the interests of the borough, and do every thing in his power to promote the welfare of his constituency.—(Cheers.) He would do his utmost to serve them, and requested their aid that he might serve them honorably, faithfully, and efficiently.— (Cheers.) If they found him flinch from his duty, or desert his constituents they should desert him and get rid of him. In this election he had had votes from those who had voted with Sir S. Whalley and Mr. Murphy, and he had the support of all classes of voters, however different their opinions. This was a proud declaration.—(Cheers.) He sought only fair play to enable him to prove that he would honestly serve them. If they found a better m in, they might choose him at the next election. He thanked the Returning-officer, and all connected with the management of the election for the good order they bad displayed, and reprobated with Sir Peter, that libel, that atrocious at. tack, which the Times and Chronicle had made on the borough.—(Loud cheers.) He was, Is their Representa tive, interested in watching over their honour, and when he found it attacked, he was banna \ to defend it , —(Cheers.) The Hon. Gentleman then again thanked the electors, and retired amidst loud cheering. • Sir W. HORNE having presented himself amidst cheers and confusion, said—lt is not my intention to trespass long on your indulgence. But I hope that the little I shall find it my duty to offer you, will not be unacceptable to any.—(Cheers.) It is Gentlemen, to perform my first duty as one of your Members, and to express from my heart the gratitude I feel for the honor you have done me. —(Bravo.) Gentlemen, highly gratified as I am, with my return, as a personal distinction, I beg leave to say that those personal feelings are all absorbed in the determina tion to do that duty which the intention of your Member re. quires at my hands.—(Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, that which I have stated elsewhere, I stated here, that the duty of a Mem. ber of Parliament is the highest and most sacred trust which any man can be invested with, for the good of the people.-- When I last addressed you from these hustings, I addressed you with those feelings which, of course, are natural to a candidate, directed more particularly towards that por tion of your valuable constituency whose good opi. nion I knew I had. But now I am no longer a candidate. am a representative of the borough. And the use mean to make of that distinction is, to represent you (Cheers.) Though I may have been chosen only by a por. . . . - tion of you, being chosen, I will honestly represent you all. And I beg solemnly to assure you, that although I am confident you might have chosen an individual more capable of serving you than myself. I will take credit, boldly and honestly, to say, that you could not have elected one more determined than I am to serve you faithfully, to the best of my abilities. Allow me, Gentlemen, here to say, that the feelings of the candidate are yours, and as a representative you will find that I make no distinction between those gentlemen who stood for me, although I shall ever retain a faithful sense of their kind ness and the rest of the constituency.—(Cheers.) I will do my duty impartially and honestly, and if I make any distinc tion, in my efforts between one class of the consti tuency and another, it shall be in favour of those who, from their situation in life, most require the protection of an honest representation.—(Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, when I look at you I see, of course, many most honest and respectable ' constituents of this borough, on whom I feel that the load of taxation presses most heavily. Ido solemnly assure you that I shall feel it my first duty, as far as I can, to concur with others in Parliament in applying a practical remedy to that which every one feels to be a practical grievance. This is not the time nor the place to enter into general discus sions. You have done me the honour of electing me as one of your representatives, because you have placed confidence in me ; and I now declare, upon my honour, as a man, that you shall have no reason from my conduct to re pent the confidence you have reposed in me.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, I again thank you from the bottom of my heart, for having triumphantly elected me ; and I shall endeavour to thank you as Englishmen ought to be thanked, not by empty speeches or professions, but by honest and resolute acts.—(Loud and long-continued cheers.) Sir S. WH A LLEY then came forward and addressed the as sembled multitude, who listened to him throughout with marked attention and very general applause. He appeared before them certainly not as the representative of the borough of Marylebone, not having succeeded in his election, but as having gained what was much more valuable, a load of untarnished glory, that would last while the borough continued.—(Cheers.) He came forward unsupported by party influence, having only public claims to their support, and in the face of all the disadvantages he had to encounter, it was a proud triumph he enjoyed in reflecting that 2,163 as honourable, as honest, as pure men as ever were banded together in a holy cause, had recorded their votes in his favour. He complained that in every quarter throughout the borough he had been mis represented and maligned ; and especially that the Ministerial organ, the " Times," had endeavoured to crush him, not be cause of his political opinions, but because he would not pledge himself to support the present Administration at all hazards and upon all occasions. —(Groans and hisses.) The men, how ever, that supported him on that occasion had been the props of Government when it was tottering to its fall;, and he be lieved if he had come forward on Government principles alone, and not as the representative of the great trading and indus trious classes of the community, his success would have been se cure. It was, however, in order that the tradesmen of the borough might have an opportunity of electing their own representa tives, that he had been called from private life to stand as a candidate for their suffrages. Hitherto, property alone, to the exclusion of the interests of the middle classes, had been re presented in the Commons' House of Parliament. All the mul titudinous imposts, with which the country was burdened, proved that the makers and imposers of taxes did not intend to be the payers.—(Cheers.) They all therefore had a ♦it al interest in good Government, and they all had a right to be represented, MEMBERS RETURNED. 2 A RLow.-I'. P.

Those who had voted for him would never need to be ashamed to walk the borough in the face of open day.—(Cheers.) They would not need to crouch before men who had betrayed their inde pendence.—(Cheers.) They were men of high integrity and honour, and they had nobly discharged their duty. He charged the successful candidates with corrupt in fluence, and he knew of an instance, which, however, he would not name, of an individual holding a place under Go vernment that had been warned, if he gave his vote to him (Sir S. W.) he would loose his situation—(Groans, hisses, and cries of " Name, name.") He had when he first addressed them, been opposed to Ballot. He had hoped that no Englishman would have been made to shrink from the per formance of so high and noble a duty by undue influence being-exerted over him; but the conduct and result of this election had convinced him that the country never could ex pect perfect purity of election until electors were protected from all dictation by the establishment of vote by ballot.— (Cheers.) Sir S. Whalley, after some further remarks, again returned thanks, and retired amidst the loud acclamations of the assembled multitude. Mr. MURPHY, in his address, thanked the electors for the support he had received; and exhausted himself in bringing a furious attack on the press, particularly against the "Times" and the " Morning Chronicle," which had never deigned till last Saturday to notice the fact of his being a candidate for that borough. The registered electors had beaten the people, whose approved candidate he was, but if all those—upwards of twenty-three thousand—who had originally been intended as electors, had been invested with the elective franchise, he had no doubt he would have been returned with a tri umphant majority. He had always been in favour of the ballot, and he hoped the people would now insist on having it made a more substantial Reform.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. M. went on at considerable length to attack a gentleman who had induced him to come forward, and who had basely deserted, and the cause of the people. Colonel JONES presented himself to return thanks for the support he had received, but in consequence of the confusion that prevailed, scarcely a word could be heard. He had not ex. pected to be returned, and he himself had voted for the two successful candidates.—(Great uproar.) He had never at. tempted, and lie never would, to conceal any act of his life. He had considered Mr. Portman and Sir W. Horne the only fit Representatives of that borough, from their position in life—their character. and—attach ment to Reform. He congratulated tha Ministry on the victory they had achived through this election. The Gallant Colonel went on amid tho greatestconfusisn toaedress the electors. At the conclusion, a vote of thanks was moved and car. tied to the Lord Mayor, for his able conduct as Returning• officer, and the meeting was dissolved. SOUTHWARK. At one o'clock the High Bailiff came on the hustings and said he bad cast up the numbers for the respective Cmdidates, and found them as follow : Brougham 2264 Allrn 1040 mpher 1708 Mr. BROUGHAM then presented himself to the meeting, and was received with loud cheers. He was, however, in such a weak state of health that he could not address them. Mr. W. DAVIS returned thanks on his behalf, and said that the high honour conferred on Mr. Brougham was doubly grateful to him, because his friends and such a vast body of the electors had attended to his interest when he was unable to assist himself. All he would now say was that Mr. Brougham would perform attentively and consistently his Parliamentary duties as he had done hitherto, and as he was not able to re. turn thanks in person, he would publish an address and send it down to the electors. Mr. Brougham then retired amidst loud cheering. Mr. ELLIS, in returning thanks for Mr. Sheriff Hutnphery, who was obliged to attend to his duty at Guildhall, said he was proud in having nominated Mr. Humphery, and proud in finding so many electors of the same opinion. The new can didate, in his opinion, was the most eligible person ; he was a man of energy, a man of business, and would attend to the in terests of the middle and lower classes.—(Loud cheers.) He would not, as some Members, attend the House of Commons some five or six weeks and then re tire to the country, but would be constant in his at tention to the interests of his constituen ts. He was gratified beyond measure that, in the metropolitan districts, neither a Tory nor a destructive had been returned ; and was proud to think that the electors of Southwark had done their duty in returning two such respectable Members.—(Applause) Mr. ALLEN also returned thanks for the support he had received. It was no small gratification to him that he had 1040 respectable electors in his favour ; and, considering the support he had had, and the kindness he had experienced, he withdrew from the contest in perfect good humour.—(Cheers.) He never had any wish for a seat in Parliament, unless he could obtain that seat with the wishes of the great body of the electors.—(Loud cheers.) The speaker then complained of the false statements put forth, not on the hustings where they could be refuted ; but in handbills, which could not be answered till the mischief was done, and concluded by saying that though it was not his intention ever to stand again for the borough, he would to the last day of his life re member with gratitude the support he had received. Mr. DAVIS moved a vote of thanks to the High Bailiff for his kind and impartial conduct during the election. Mr. ELLIS seconded the motion, when the assembled crowd gave three cheers for the High Bailiff. The HIGH BAILIFF returned thanks, and the crowd quietly dispersed. LAMBETH. Twelve °clock being the hour appointed by the returning officer (Mr. Hope) for announcing the final state of the poll, long before that period Kennington Common presented a scene of great bustle and excitement. Mr. Wakefield arrived at the hustings as early as half-past eleven o'clock, and was re ceived by the assembled multitude with immense cheering. Mr. Hawes arrived about one o'clock, and on coming for ward was greeted with hissings and hootings from every quarter, and cries of " Turn him out, we want no soap_ boilers. Have you brought your Doctor Hawes ? for you will have plenty of broken heads before you go home. You want a dose of Russell's purge." Mr. TENNYSON arrived shortly afterwards in a carriage and four, accompanied by Mr. Palmer, and preceded by splendid banners, and several horsemen on cream.coloured horses. The Right Honourable Gentleman, on arriving at the hustings, was most enthusiastically cheered. The Right Honourable Gentleman seemed highly delighted at the favourable reception he met with. The casting up of the poll books by the Returning-officer occupied nearly two hours, during which time the distribution of electioneering squibs was carried on in great profusion. We select the following, which will convey some idea of their general purport : TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION, BY MR. PEARLASH, At - the Horns Tavern, Kennington, on Tuesday, Dec. 10, 1832, at Twelve o'Clock, all the valuable Electioneering STOCK IN TRADE OF A SOAP BOILER, Consisting of Promises made by Contract, Stale Professions, Counterfeit Pretentsions to Whig Independence, numerous Pledges, mock Plans for Improving the Borough of Lambeth, and its Charitable Institutions, empty Tallow Butts, a quantity of Soap Ashes, and a large assortment of old Clothes, amongst which are to be found several Coats turned upon a new pattern. For the convenience of individuals, any particular Lot may be previously had by Private Contract. LOT I. Promises of enriching the borough of Lambeth, by importing large quantities of soap, tallow, and soap ashes, but from its being repeatedly washed and boiled, it is not supposed to to be of any great value. LOT IL The shares lately held by him in charities and insti tutions ; the valuable original painting of a body of select vestry men ; a quantity of waste paper, contamingpetitions for increas ing the parson'f salaries, and for increasing the magistrate's power for licensing the publicans, thereby making all their acts private and without appeal. LOT 111. A new-invented instrument, supposed to belong to a soap-boiler, from its similarity to a machine used in that trade for ramming candidates down the throats of the electors, thereby saving the trouble of asking the electors for their votes who are not genteely dressed, wealthy, or influential, and turning his back on the poor and destitute. LOT IV. A number of chairmen, committee-men, secreta ries, bill-stickers, cryers, b aw l ers , p l e d ge-men, dissent'ing-men, approving-men, leading-men, public-men, tory-men, influen tial-men, drunken-men, well-dressed-men, but no gentlemen. In this lot are a number of speeches, including bets, ifs, and pledges never intended to be performed. Peculiar construoted muzzles for the head of his Committee, never yet used. Also, a painting of a Moor supplicating on his knees for mercy, whilst master bites his lips with rage, but discharges him conditionally that he never opposes him again. LOU V. The balance of the subscription paid to the credit of his Committee. This lot will be found of codsiderable value, notwithstanding the heavy drafts made upon it by the Com mittee. Refreshments and the best of wines will be furnished gratis. A few minutes before two o'clock the Returning Officer an nounced the official state of the poll to be as follows : Tennyson 2632 I Wakefield. 762 Hawes 2093 Moore ... and declared the election to have fallen on the two former gentlemen, Mr. WAKEFIELD immediately entered a protest against the return of Mr. Hawes, on the ground of bribery and cor ruption having been exercised by him or his agents in procuring votes. FINSBUR Mr. Satchel', the returning officer, Y. declared the election to have fall en On the Right Hon. R. Grant and Mr. Ser geant Spankie. The numb e rs were for— Grant. ................ 4278 Wakley 2151 Spankie ................ 2848 Temple 787 Bahbaue .............. 2311 I The Rt. Hon. R. GRANT came forward amidst loud cheers. He declared that he wanted words to express his sense of the gratitude which the conduct of the electors had excited in his bosom. He knew it was not the private individual, but his public principles which they had meant to sanction. —( Hear, h ear, hear.) It was not the champion, but the cause which they supported.—(Cheers.) That very circu ms tance inspired a f ar d eeper p l easure than any feeling of gratified personal vanity could bestow, —the pleasure arising placed ofi,is at from the con v i ction that they had been pleased to consider him as not a t all unworthy to sustain the cause, of which he on edhimselftabcehfinoreentto them as the humble sustainer. That it was that w ou l d ever delight him, that they had grat i f i ed the hthose p r inciples on which he stood before them. Th e principles to which he alluded were those on which the Government intended to sot, during the time of their being in office, and especially la connection with that great measure which had called into political being, that great, important and enlightened constituency.—(Hear, hear ) Their enemies had said that it was impossible, all the com plicated machinery of registering, of voting, and of multiplicity of booths, could go on without disturbance; but the conduct of the Finsbury electors had proved the contrary. The authors and supporters of the Reform Bill, on bringing it into the House, showed that they gave their confidence to the people, and the people were every where answering the call that had been made, by returning such members as would best support their interests. He trusted Government would retain the public confidence, and that by retaining it, they would be enabled efficiently to discharge their public duties by proceeding on the principle of correcting all abuses, and intro ducing all introducable improvements; ofaltering nothing for the sake of alteration, of retaining nothing for the mere sake of re. tention, but by firmly sustaining the institutions on the basis of independence, of purity within, and strength without.— (Loud cheers.) Government would attempt throughout to strengthen the bulwarks of the British Constitution, by fixing them on the rich and generous soil of the people's affections. Happy would he be, if hereafter he might be enabled (and he thought his endeavours would entitle and enable him to do so) to face them again, and to give them a satisfactory account of the stewardship they had placed in his hands. The Right Hon. Gentleman retired amidst loud cheers. Mr. Serjeant SPANKIE came forward amidst hisses, and groans, and partial cheering. He felt thankful to the'elec- tors for allowing him to occupy the second place on the poll. —(A laugh.) He wished well to the present Government, and intended to support it when it deserved the confidence of the country. He was proud of the station in which their favour had placed him, and it would be his endeavour to procure for them all those advantages which the Reform Bill was intended to pro duce. The opponents of the Reform Bill would now see that every man was able to vote according to his pleasure and his conscience ;—(Loud cries of "No, no, no,")—and the whole country would thank the electors for the peaceable way in which they had conducted themselves during the election. Those from whom were expected tumult and disorder, had shown themselves peaceable, and it was impossible for him not to acknowledge the good humour with which they had borne the disappointment of seeing a candidate returned to whom they were opposed. He then stated that a misunderstanding existed between him and Mr. Babbage, which he felt it his bounden duty to explain. Mr. Babbage had stated in the "Times" that he had been opposed by the influence of a great powerful corporation. That, of course, meant the East India Company—(Hisses and groans)—.and he was sure that the Hon. Gentleman, who was a man of high honour, would not have said so if he had not been misled. But he (the Learned Gentleman) could say that the East India Company had taken no part in his favour. Not one vote had they interfered to obtain for him. On the contrary, several persons of that Corporation had been on Mr. Grant's com mittee, and canvassed for him. He meant to support the pre sent Ministry as an instrument to obtain for the people that which they were entitled to, the correction of abuses and the Reform of all departments in the State that would admit of it. If Members of the next Parliament did not do their duty, the people would have the opportunity of correcting them. The people would have every thing in their power, and their representatives would hang upon the confidence they might obtain, according to the manner in which they exercised the trust imposed on them.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. BABBAGE said, that though unsuccssful he had been placed in a very proud situation by the number of votes he had received. He would state a few words in answer to an allusion to an address inserted by him in the " Times." It was not surprising to him that an advocate of monopoly in the East, should be opposed to monopoly in the West. A person to whom five of his friends had applied, for his vote hal stated that he felt himself in a position which would be injurious to him if he voted for Mr. Babbage. His friend said, go and vote as you are obliged to vote. Mr Babbage said that he firmly believed that was the influence of the E. I. Company. He was called on to state who the individual was who was placed in this difficult position, but if he did so, it would do that individual the same injury as if he had voted against the Learned Sergeant. He hoped there would be times, when they would have more freedom than they had on the present occasion, and that the frindships which he had iormed with the constituency of Finsbury would never oe erased from his memory. Mr. Babbage then retired amidst loud chrer. Mr. WA KLEY then came forward, amidst the most deafen ing cheers, that lasied for some miautes. Although he was not the highest on the psll, yet he mighi state, without fear of contradiction, that the cause of Reform was triumphant. For when they considered the means which have been adopted to produce the results which they saw there, he had only to appeal to their own feelings, and ask their good sense what must not be the desire to produce a change, when they saw that 2151 electors had come forward spontaneously to the poll to vote for a pledged man. —(Loud cheers.) If, there fore, he had lost the election, the cause of the piople was not lost. He had nothing ao complain of the con duct of the Committee of his opponents, and never saw any election conducted with more fairness than the preseut WESTMINSTER. At a little before two o'clock the High Bailiff (Mr. Morris) Sir Francis Burdett, Sir John C. Hobhouse, and their friends, appeared upon the hustings to announce the result of the poll, A board was exhibited before the High Bailiff; on which the numbers were stated to be— Burdett 3248 1 Evans 1096 Hobhouse .3214 I Mr. MORRIS having announced the numbers, stated that Sir Francis Burdett and Sir John Hobhouse were duly elected to represent Westminster. The cheering lasted for some minutes, and completely drowned the small portion of hisses who mustered against Sir John Hobhouse. Sir F. BURDETT then addressed the electors, and said that it was a most gratifying part of his duty to congratulate the electors of Westminster upon having shown to the world that they still maintained that independent and intelligent character for which they had been so long distinguished. They had shown they were neither to be deceived nor deluded out of what they considered their proper course. He had little now to say, for he wished to take no notice of any thing unpleasant which might have occurred in the course of the recent contest. — (Cheers.) He was now the representative of the electors of Westminster at large, (Cheers) and in the performance of his duties, he hoped all would hereafter be able to acknowledge that he had not borne in memory any thing unpleasant which might have taken place in the course of this election. It was with pride and exultation he was able to say that the electors of this great city had, if any thing, raised themselves in public estimation, by their recent conduct.--(Cries of " No, no —and yes, yes.") He could still say to the rest of the king. dom, if you want intelligence and independence—if you want an example of good conduct—if you require a model of public spirit, I can still point to Westminster, and say, look. He was now placed in a situation more ardu. ous and difficult than any on which they had before placed him on former occasions. Heretofore he had only to fight an honest and straight forward battle, with a set of corrupt 80. roughmongers in Parliament—(Cheers). But the system under which those enemiess of their country existed, was now ex ploded for ever. He was now loaded with the additional duty of snpporting those great public interests in which they were so materially interested, and he trusted that upon all great questions he should not be found any more than heretofore to have looked to any private considerations, but to have acted solely with a ►iew to public advantage. —(Hear, hear.) They had placed him in a situation of proud pre-eminence, which ne man of honourable feeling or even of ambition could wish to change for any of which it was in the power of any man or body of men to I bestow. They had come triumphantly out of what at first appeared likely to be a trying occasion, but he again ex. pressed a hope that all animosity between fellow-citizens, look ing forward with equal ardour to the benefits to be derived from the Reform Bill would be buried in ob.ivion, and that the united authority of the electors of this great city would, as heretofore, give weight to the measures which the public in terest might require to be passed. The Hon. Baronet con. eluded by expressing his feelings of gratification for the honour 1 they had done him, and the pride he felt at the conduct of his constituency as a body. He begged to assure the electors they would always find him their arduous and decided servant. Sir J. HOBHOUSE then came forward, and although his opponents before the hustings did not appear to be very numerous, compared with the rest of the assemblage, they kept up such an incessant noise, that it was impossi ble a word could he heard which the Hon. Baronet uttered beyond the second or third row. It was with much pride and satisfaction, he said, he presented himself to the electors on this great and most important occasion. If at any former occasion there had been any doubt of what the opinion of the great body of the electors of Westminster, the result of his contest had settled it.—(Cheers.) He trusted they would allow him to add his recommendation to that of his honourable colleague, to bury all animosities in oblivion, in order that the friends of Reform in Westminster might continue to co.operate for the public good. As the opposition had been directed more particularly against himself—(Cries of" Very justly," and " Off, off.") When he stated that he felt no kind of ill. feeling against any elector who had conscientiously preferred another to himself, of course, none of themselves could indulge in such feelings towards fellow.electors. He trusted that his conduct would justify the confi. dence his constituents had ever pleased to place in him. At any rate he would endeavour to show those who had pre. ferred another to himself, that though they had not the ho. nour of their choice, they would not have much to re. gret in having him (Sir J. C. Hobhouse) to be their representative. It was never the good fortune of any man to meet with unanimous approbation of his public conduct, and he trusted that when his motives and intentions were fairly weighed, that though gentlemen who were discontented with him—God knew on what account, for he himself was unable to divine any reason—he trusted they would ac knowledge their mistake. It would ill become him to indulge in any of those promises which had been the fashion for some candidates for popular favour to give, but this he would say, that if he had shewn in his former conduct that he had any respect either for himself or for them, he would continue to exhibit the same disinterested behaviour; and when he next addressed them, he would surrender his trust pure and unsullied, without having given them, he hoped, any reason to regret the confidence they now reposed in him After a few words from Mr. Simpson, explanatory of Colonel Evans's unavoidabl e a b sence in the country, an d expressive r • bop.

The High Bailiff d.a.olved the meeting. Mr. Da VICAR moved A vote of thanks to the High Bailiff, which was carried unanimously. THE CITY. This morning the Sheriffs met at nine o'clock, in order to cast up the books of the different poll clerks who had attended at Guildhall to receive the votes of the Livery men, and also of those who attended at the 14 stations to receive the votes of the inhabitant householders who have been enfranchised in consequence of the Reform Bill. Before the business commenced their were various retnarkings with regard to the progress of the late contest. Some said that one of the candidates had not had fair play—viz., Scales, but all agreed that he had at the hust ings. It has, however, been agreed on all hands that his committee were not the most alert or au Pit at their ho miness who have ever undertaken to espouse the cause of a candidate. Yesterday, when one gentleman came to poll, he saw the three Aldermen elected Members opposite, and lie said emphatically, " I shall vote for no Alderman except Scales—he has been the victim of your Court, and he is the cleverest fellow among you." Mr. Lyall received more " plurapers" than any other, and that gentleman appears only to bays lost his election from the fact that so many Liverymen voted for the four can didates who stood first in nomination, and have secured their election. A considerable number of Liverymen had not been returned as such by the clerks of their Compa nies ; hence the Sheriffs would not allow them to vote. This is mentioned merely to put these gentlemen on the alert, so that the like error may not occur in future. So far as the polling went, everything went off with great quietude, and this was thought to be one of the first good points of the Reform Bill. At 20 minutes to two o'clock, Sheriffs Humphery and Peek came on the hustings, accompanied by all the candidates. The formal announcement of the State of the Poll seemed to excite but little interest with the public, and very few persons were present. The Sheriffs announcod the following to be the state of the poll: Mr. Grote 8412 Sir John Key Alderman Waithman 7452 Mr. Lya11......... ....5152 Alderman Wood 7488 Mr. Scales ...... ....... 569 They then declared Mr. Grote, Alderman Wood, Alderman Waithman, and Sir John Key to be duly elected to represent t he city of London in the ensuing Parliament —( Loud cheering.) Mr. GROTE came forward amidst loud cheering. He said if ever there was a human being who had cause to stand before an assembly of the people with feelings of pride and gratitude, he was that man.—(Cheer&) Four days ago, he stood on those hustings an anxious candidate for their suffrages, and now they have done him the distinguished ho. nour, by a commanding majority, of electing him to the great pest of one of their representatives. He now stood before them in the felicity of the greatest triumph which cou'd be conferred on a free citizen ; no triumph on the earth could even equal it, much less surpass it—(Cheers)—for what were all the gorgeous titles which the smiles of Court could bestow' compared with the independent sufftages of an enlightened body of free citizens.—(Cheers.) It was that alone which carried merit with it, and which carried triumph to the heart of a free citizen. In thanking them for this great and unexampled honour—for unexampled it was, as no other individual had ever so great a number of votes—he felt a full sense of the obligation: with which it was accompanied; he felt with religious awe the mighty powers now placed in his hands, and assured them, with a solemnity he never before experienced, that he would feel himself disgraced if he did not employ those powers to the fullest extent for their benefit. The mission with which he was intrusted could not be paralleled with any other either in the power or the labour which it required, and he was resolved to consecrate to their service the full measure of his faculties and energies, particularly in favour of that nameless untitled mul titude which most needed the protection of the Legislature, be. cause they had the least means of protecting themselves.— j.oud cheers.) As he had repeatedly announced, his poli tical principles were his own long tried and long cherished convictions, and not assumed for the moment or to catch at any ephemeral popularity.—(Cheers.) If those principles were before sacred to him they were now far more so, because they were stamped with the seal of their ap probation.—(Coutinued cheering.) As he well knew, both by study and by observation, hew very great and irresistible was the temptation in public men to slumber at their posts, he called on the electors to watch narrowly his po. litical conduct with care and attention ; he exhorted them to do that, not merely for the sake of their own interests, but as a guarantee and a preservative of his own political virtue.— Cheers.) He begged of them to look him through and through as he worked on the political stage ; and if they saw him conniving at, or consenting to the continuance of the abuses which he had denounced, or incompetent to the discus. sion of any great public question, then to repudiate him without indulgence, and to kick his banner out of that Hall with all the disgrcce it would then deserve.—(Cheers.) But if they saw him acting otherwise—if they saw him in the van guard of those who denounced public abuses, and if he acted in the way he had promised to act, he should then call upon them for a continuance of that generous confidence they had now placed in him—not as a matter of favour, but as a matter of justice. He mentioned that with more peculiar interest, because he knew that his political principles would mark him for the enmity of all those jobbing fraternity who infested the high-ways of the Government, and who blocked up all th e paths to sound and good legislation.—(Loud cheers.) He feared not their open enmity ; but they were accustomed to attack their opponents with poisoned weapons, and if they should aim their calumnies at him, he would appeal to the calm and deliberate judgment of his constituents whether he had done any thing to forfeit their good opinion.—(Cheers.) One of the candidates (Mr. Lyall) had announced his claims to their suffrages not on political grounds, but on mercantile grounds. He alluded to that gentleman with the greatest feel ing of kindness, because, although they differed in politics, he knew him to be a most amiable man, and possessed of great talent and habits of business—(Hear, hear)—but Mr. Lyall's party, in putting him forward, expressed their apprehension that if he ( Mr. L.) were not returned, the interests of the commercial part of the community would not be faithfully representaet, He (Mr. Grote) would venture to assert that that prurbec l would be false so long as he was in Parliament Be was im much identified with the mercantile interests of London, as Mr. Lyall could be, and he would vindicate in the Legisla. cure all the interests of the Merchants of London which wpeeerie,lein;cohnesiswteenutldwitnhetvheer ianstseisrtesttsheomf wthheehlatrhgeeye but he would never adv oca t e or ass i st any of those proposi. t b i o o d n y s w of hi t demanded an unduc protection, or when the great body of the people were to be taxed for their benefit. From that moment he would become not their champion or advocate, but their moat determined opponent-- He would now take leave of the electors, with the renewed expression of his gratitude for the unexampled support they had been pleased to afford him. He now stepped forward to public life a new and untried man, and with nothing io recommend him, bu t the testimony of respect from 8,400 individuals—(Great cheering)—but if there was honour or generosity in the human bosom, that testimony was quite sufhi cient to prevent him from falling into those habits of indolence and relaxation, which he was sorry to sty had acted so fatally on many public men. The lion. Member concluded amidst long continued cheering.) We shall give the conclusion of all the other Meetings in a Second Edition. STAMFORD, Aric 11. The poll opened this morning, and displayed, at its close this evening, the first day, a result equally surprising in its ex. tent, to all parties. The influence of the Marquis of Exeter, and the corporation united, with the effect of the new boun dary, has overwhelmed the public.spirited and gallant reform. ers, whose exertions and disinterested sacrifices, have gained for them the admiration of the country. The popular candi date, Mr. Gregory, cannot overtake the majority of Mr. Finch against him. Every thing which Intimidation and cor. ruption could accomplish, has been directed against the free ex. ercise of the elective franchise ; and the farts connected with this contest, will illustrate the absolute necessity of the ballot or disfranchisement. Representation is a curse and a mockery under the circumstances of the electors of this borough. The poll will open on Wednesday, and probably close early in the morning by the return of Colonel Chaplin and Mr. Finch. The numbers were as follow : Chaplin Finch.... Gregory . ................. 525 .................. 463 .................. 296 THE FUNDS. --(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK New York Papers to the 21st November, Montreal to the 15th November, Quebec to the same date, and Bombay to the 16th August, have been received at the North and South American CoTee-house. (From New Orleans, Nov. 2.) Yesterday, the number of deaths reported was 162, but they were generally confined to the Negroes of the lowest class. HALF-PAST ONE. All is in expectation for further accounts from Antwerp, to hear if Fort St. Laurent has been stormed by the French. We do not hear of an express from Paris in the City as yet. Consols have continued the whole of the morning at 83.1 for the Account, at present they are a shade better, 83, with little or nothing doing. The Saving Banks have been pur chasing, and it is expected that the Commissioners will begin to purchase next month. We continue without any arrivals either from Oporto or Lisbon, which causes anxiety to the merchants. The Foreign Market is in the same stagnant state as the Bri tish ; prices much the same as yesterday. Commie for Account 83N, TIMER 0' CL OCI 4
