Cross-examined by Mr. CRESSWELL—The defendant was formerly a farmer but was now a bum bailiff.—(Laughter.) Had known the plaintiff seven years. Whets the expressions were uttered witness did not disbelieve them ; he took them as the defendant uttered them, but he never let them trouble his mind. He did not inquire what sort of robbery the defendant meant, whether a robbery of money by stealing it from a bu reau, or by an overcharge in a bill. Re-examined—The defendant had considerable property, but acted as a bailiff'. Mary Newton, the preceding witness's wife, corroborated his testimony. Mr. CRESSIVELL addressed the Jury for the defendant, and contended that the plaintiff was not entitled to any verdict, or, if he were, the smallest possible coin would amply satisfy the justice of the case. The defendant had been sued by the plaintiff for a debt due to one of his clients, and the defendant had reason to believe that the bill of costs had been too exorbitant. It was while acting under irritated feelings, produced by that belief, that caused the defendant to use the expressions complained of; and in using them, he could not mean to impute a felony, or any crime punishable by law, to the plaintiff; but merely that the plaintiff' had overcharged him. The Jury must believe that the defendant meant, and was understood to impute a fe lony or a fraud to the plaintiff, before they could find a verdict for him ; for if the expressions were merely meant to convey that the plaintiff had overcharged the defendant in his bill of costs, the plaintiff was not entitled to recover. The plaintiff complained in his declaration, that he had suffered much injury in his character, and in his profession of attorney ; and yet it appeared to his mind better to bring this action all the way to London to be tried by a Jury who knew nothing of him, and at a distance of twelve months, rather than seek re paration for any injury he might have received from a Jury of his own neighbourhood, who might have known the real value of his character, and who would have awarded him, many months ago, such a compensation as he was entitled to. . His LORDSHIP, in summing up, said if the Jury believed that the defendant meant to impute (chilly or fraud to the plaintiff; the latter was entitled to a verdict for such a sum as they should think would meet the justice of the case. The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff: Damages—One Farthing. GRIFFITHS v. LUCE. This was an action of trespass brought by the plaintiff; who was a pig driver, against the defendant, who was an officer of :he corporation of Swansea, for seizing a pig. The case occupied the Court a considerable time, and af forded much amusement. It appeared that many disputes had arisen in Swansea respecting the right of the corporation of that town, to exact certain dues on the exportation and im portation of goods. Among the dues was one of a penny upon every pig exported. The Corporation had brought se veral actions for those dues, in which the real question was placed in issue, viz., the right to exact them, but either from the certainty of not being able to establish their legality, or from some other cause, all those actions had been, in the language of Mr. Rosser, who rented the dues from the Corporation, " medicated," which was stated to signify " abandoned." On the 23d March, 1831, the plaintiff sent fifty pigs to Swansea, to be shipped for Bristol. Roper de manded a penny each as town dues, and in default of pay ment, the defendant was sent fur to seize one pig; after the seizure the plaintiff's drover paid the money to redeem the pig, receiving a receipt from the defendant for the 4s. 2d., and 2s. 6d., the expense of the distress. The present action was brought merely to recover that money, viz., 6s. Bd. and beside the expense of a host of witnesses who were brought from Wales, there were no less than five Counsel engaged in the cause Sir JAMES SCARLETT, in his address for the defendant, stated that in this as in all Welsh causes, there were witnesses for the defendant to contradict those for the plaintiff. Indeed, he believed that not only was it considered in Wales a weighty thing to try a cause in the metropolis of England, but that it would not be called a cause at all unless there were several persons to swear black was white, and an equal number to swear that white was no colour at all.—(Loud laughter.) Therefore, it was not surprising that lie had to call witnesses to contradict the whole of the evidence for the plaintiff. The Learned Counsel then called several witnesses, who swore that no pig whatever was seized, but that the money was paid without a murmur. His LORDSHIP was about to sum up, when he was inter. rupted by the Jury, who found a verdict for the plaintiff-- Damages, Six Shillings and Eightpence. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY).

TWEL VE 0' CLOCK. Halifax papers to the 6th of Nov., Singapore to the 6th of duly, New Brunswick to the 27th Oct., Prince Edward's Island to the 31st Oct., and Bombay to the 19th of July, have been re ceived at the North and South American Coffee-house. I (From the Singapore Papers.) Accounts from Batavia, received by the Grecian, still afford many gloomy prospects for free trade in Java, and corroborate the statement we published in our last, relative to the extra. ordinary efforts the Dutch company, aided by the Govern ment, are now making, to establish an unjust, impolitic, and ruinous monopoly, of the most valuable portion of the trade of that island. The Bombay papers state that the Zemindars are almost everywhere in a state of complete rebellion, the country impo. verished, and the inhabitants are assembling to have vengeance on their local oppressors. Some of the ex.commissioners, with three regiments of cavalry, and a regiment of Sepoys, have been ordered to take up positions in different parts of the country, to reduce them to obedience. THE FUNDS. Up to the present time we have no further information from the theatre of war at Antwerp, but we are in hourly expecta tion of receiving accounts of the further progress of the siege of the Citadel. We have for some time past stated, that the Prussians would not interfere in the late eonvention between France and England for the reduction of the Citadel of Ant werp, which is corroborated by the speech of Marshal Soult. Consols, which left off yesterday at 83e to e for the Account, opened at Kb with little doing ; at present they are 83k. In the Foreign Market nothing doing as yet. HALF-PAST ONE. We can positively state that information is in town from Antwerp, of Sunday morning, at which period the French had net commenced firing on the citadel of Antwerp. We are also informed that General Gerard is aware that General Chasse has for some time past been undermining the approaches to the citadel ; in consequence of which the French are countermining before they approach too near the bastions of the citadel. Government are in possession of accounts of Sunday from Antwerp. " _ Consols maintain their price, 83 lA, buyers, for the Account, although little business is doing.

It was an action brought by Mr. Rushworth, a solicitor, residing in Hull, to recover damages from the defendant, who was an opu lent fanner, for slanderous expressions used by him, imputing to the plaintiff that he had committed felony. The usual proof was put in that the plaintiff was a certifies. ted attorney. Newton, a carrier was called. Having been sworn, he objected to give evidence until his expenses were insured him. Mr. ARCHBOLD said, he understood the witness and his wife had already received 71., besides all their expenses in town being defrayed. His LORDSHIP having consulted with the Master, said, according to the usual scale of allowances, the witness, for him self and his wife must have 71. more. If parties would bring witnesses from a long distance they must pay them. The plaintiff's solicitor having satisfied the witness, he pro ceeded to give his evidence. He stated that he was a carrier, and I:new the plaintiff and defendant. On a market day in Nov., 1831, he was standing in the market with his wife speaking to the plaintiff: The defendant came up and called to the plaintiff; that " he was a-- eternal thief and robber, and that he had robbed him of 61." The plaintiff then went away, and the de- ' fendant said " he hoped witness would have nothing to do with that rascal ; for if he did, defendant would be sure to rob him." A crowd of a dozen or fifteen persons was col lected by the defendant's expressions. Witness afterwards saw the defendant follow the plaintiff to the Rein Deer Inn, exclaiming, "There goes the thiei and robber, and he will come to the gallows for it." Witness advised the defendant not to use such language, and he replied he knew the plaintiff would "law him," but promised that if witness would not go against . . . _ him he (defendant) would be witness's friend. The defendant called on witness the following day and repeated the same ex pressions against the plaintiff. After the action was brought the Plaintiff authorized witness to call on the defendant and offer to stay proceedings if he would pay the expenses and give 51. to the Hull Infirmary. On proposing that to the defendant he re fused to accede to it, and said he would sooner walk to London and pay 100/. than do it. THE ELECTIONS. WESTMINSTER.-COLONEL JONES. A public meeting of the electors resident in St. Clement Danes, Precincts of the Savoy, was held at the Crown and Anchor last evening, for the purpose of hearing Colonel Evans. Lord DUNBOYNE was called to the Chair. Mr. PROUT, in moving the first resolution, observed, that having taken his opinions from those of Sir Francis Burdett, even when said to be most inflammatory, he was most sorry to find, from various circumstances, that the Sir Francis Burdett of former days seas not the Sir Francis Burdett of the present date. From having been the protector of the rights and liber ties of his constituents and the country at large, he had become the protector of Sir J. C, Hobhouse. He then read the first resolution, which set forth the reasons why Sir John C. Hob. house was not a proper person to represent this city. He most sincerely proposed this resolution in the feeling which he had derived from Sir Francis, that no person connected with the Administration ought to be a representative (so called) of the people. Mr. SIMSON seconded the resolution. He adverted to the " electioneering trick" made use of by Sir Francis Burdett and Sir J. C. Hobhouse, in being the Captains to the Deputation which waited on Lord Althorp on the subject of the assessed taxes. This, he said, was only produced by the advocacy by Colonel Evans of the abolition of those unjust taxes. Mr. MERLE addressed the meeting in vindication of his political career, which he said had been aspersed by Sir Francis Burdett, who had stated that he and Mr. Michie, the mover and seconder of a resolution at a former meeting, were Anti_ Reformers. Mr. Merle indignantly repelled this charge ; he had lost, he said, a situation of 1,000/. a year by his refasal to support that Giant of Corruption the Duke of Wellington. He (Mr. Merle) had always been a Reformer. Lord DUNBOYNE, after contrasting the uniform conduct of Colonel Evans with that of Sir J. C. Hobhouse, but the re solution, which was carried unanimously. Mr. ARBOR, on moving the second resolution, entreated the electors to beware how they were led away by the placard information of fresh candidates having appeared in the field. He believed these to be " weak inventions of the enemy." He concluded by moving the second resolution, which stated Colonel Evans to be a very fit and proper person to represent this City. Colonel EVANS came before them stigmatized as a destrue. live but so stigmatized by people who had all their lives till now (there was no fear of them in this respect now)— (Laughter) —been called destructives themselves. The Gallant Colonel then adverted to a paper which had been placarded about, say ing, " Electors of Westminster, be not deceived—services are better than professions :at the time the remodelling' Colonel Evans was pawning and pledging away at the London Tavern, Sir J. Hobhouse was actually (!) persuading Government to re peal the tax. The contest is between the Reformers and Con servatives!" This paper, the Gallant Colonel said, was a mere electioneering subterfuge: they laid a great stress about his be ing a remodeller; indeed they seemed glad to catch at any striking word—so they must be in a bad way.—(Laughter.) . He was a re. modeller; but, for all that, was no destructive; he had searched for the definition of the words modcl and remodel ; and in Johnson, and everywhere else, found it to mean Reform, but not a word about destruction, or anything like it. He did intend to reform all such things, and they were not a few, as required it.—(Cheers.) The fact was, that Sir Francis and his colleague were dreadfully afraid that the Reform Bill would go to greater length than they had ever intended; they thought the people would have been satisfied with the Bill and asked for no more, and they did not wish men to get into Parliament who would have the Bill paid. —(Clieers.) Colonel Evans said he had extensively circulated an address explanatory of his sentiments among the electors. Upon these he spoke for a short time, in the same terms as we have before reported. After a very extended, though eloquent speech, which was, throughout, received in the most gratifying manner; he stated, that notwithstanding the various hints given him—" Why, we hear you're going to resign," and so on, yet he did most certainly intend to stand the contest; and he would add, from the generally most favourable reception he had met with from electors determined to show their own right to inde pendence of thinking and action, that he really had very little doubt of a successful result.— (This announcement was met by a simultaneous shout of plaudatory feeling in the meeting, in the midst of which the Gallant Colonel sat down, after having solicited any person to put any question to him.) The resolution, expressing the full approbation of the meeting in the Gallant Colonel, was then read and carried unanimously, Mr. MICHIE addressed the meeting respecting the charge made against him by the Ministerial organs, of being, as well as Mr. Merle, an Anti-Reformer ; he replied such an assertion most indignantly, and referred to his past conduct to testify to his r ght to be called a Reformer. He related the transaction with Sir J. C. Hobhouse with respect to that Baronet's recep tion of the deputation who waited on him, and mentioned that a letter from one of their p ar ty, w hi c h Si r J. C Hobhouse had stated in a former meeting to have been in his pocket, directed to Mr. Francis Place, in which that individual was desired to name a proper representative for Westminster, was not in Sir J. C. Hothouse's possession at the time, but in his. Mr. Michie addressed the meeting on this and other subjects, which we have before given. Mr. MERLE said, he and Mr. Michie had been called by The Times and The Globe the Ministerial organs—" bottle. holders to Colonel Evans."—(A laugh.) Now, as to himself, lie had only come to town on the morning of the day in ques. tion, and had entered into the matter quite on the moment. If he were a bottle.holder to such a man as Colonel Evans, he should be in a prouder situation than he had ever yet attained; for he should be an assistant, however humble, to a man who would benefit his country, and who deserved well of that country.—(Cheers.) He had known Colonel Evans long, and he thought so highly of him, in every respect, that he consi. tiered the Westminster electors would best consult their in. ' terests in electing him.---(Cheers, and "So we will.") Thanks being voted to the Noble Chairman, Lord DUNBOYNE eulogized the extremepropriety and de. corum which had been shown in so large a - meeting. It having been resolved that a Committee to promote Colonel Evans's return should be formed, the meeting dissolved, after giving three most enthusiastic cheers for that Gallant Colonel. SOIIIIWARK-mR. BROUGHAM. . • Last evening, pursuant to notice, a meeting of the electors , of St. John's, Horselydown, was convened at the Red Rose Tavern, the large room of which was completely filled. , Shortly after seven o'clock the chair was taken by Mr. FLOWER. Mr. I'EAKE proposed the first resolution, to do which he could not for an instant refuse, as the past conduct of the gentle man afforded an earnest for his future proceedings.—(Cheers.) Mr. BROUHAM said the relation which subsists between the representative and his constituents he took to be this : he is intrusted by them with the care and protection of their in terests; he is accountable to them for the manner in which he has performed his trust; and if circumstances should occur to produce a change in his political sentiments, he is bound to explain such change to the satisfaction of Isis electors, or to resign his seat into their hands.—(Vehement cheering.) Such appeared to him to be the plain and intelligible position in which the representative stands with respect to his constituents; it was bottomed upon that mutual confidence which arises out of a coincidence of political opinions, and it was maintained by that zealous execution of the duty which goes hand in hand with inclination.—(Loud cheers.) But it seems a new light has broken out upon this subject; it seems that this fit and constitutional alliance between the representative and elector is no longer to be left to the care of those who alone are the parties interested ; it seems that it is now to be inter fered with, watched, and superintended by self-constituted authorities ; wh o , forming themselves into boards of inquiry, or ea t rather f Parliament,inquisition, there summonto obe catechized, efore t andhe m candidateswho, according as they shall demean themselves before the high tribunal, are to be approved of or rejected ! Never ! He denounced all such inquisitions ; he objected to all such authorities, and utterly denied all right in them to call upon him who does not seek to represent them in Parliament, to render any account of his political opinions. Were he to obey such calls, he should be wanting in his duty to himself, no less than to them, his electors. Were they his constituents ? If so, he should cheerfully obey the summons. Were they his fellow-parishioners ? If so, he should feel bound to attend and assist in the redress of any local grievance or public wrong; but the commands of any body of men, however respectable, to whom he owed neither private duty nor public allegiance, he, for one, would never consent to obey. He had consistency of character to support, and hating, as he did, tyranny in every shape, whether it came in the form of a landlord improperly influencing the tenant,—of a political union dictating to the poor shopkeeper,—or ofa self.constituted tribunal entrapping or bullying the candidate who was not to be their representative, against all such oppression and dictation he, even if he should be made the victim, would at all times boldly and fearlessly raise his voice and hand. (The Hon. Gentleman sat down with an expression of feeling which is impossible to be described.) The resolution was carried enthusiastically. Another proposition was made, that a co-operation was ne ceFsary of the inhabitants to secure the return of a gentleman of such tried integrity ; which, being seconded, was carried unanimously. The meeting, after giving thanks to the Chairman, departed with three hearty cheers for the welfare of the cause. MR. URRA. Yesterday a meeting of M the electors and friends of Mr. Thomas L. Murray took place at the Surrey Riding-school, Blackfriars-road, at whi c h that gentlemon attended to state his political sentiments. Mr. Redford took the chair. The CHAIRMAN stated that Mr. Murray came forward on theprinciples of Major Revell, who had declined on account of ill health. Mr. Murray, he said, was known as a thorough Reformer. Mr. MURRAY then stood forward. He was a sincere and thorough Radical Reformer, and should continue so until the people of England obtained their rights. He pledged himself in the most strict and solemn manner to advocate those rights. He loved the people more than the Ministers ; the people alone he considered the sovereign power—(Huzzas)—and in them all legitimate authority was and ought to be placed.—(Huzzas.) llis first pledge was, that he would vote for the correction of all abuses in Church and State. He had no relative benefited by the public money; if he had, he would judge him like Brutus, and cut him off for the crimes he had committed. — Applause.) He would vote for the extension of the suffrage to scot and lot voters. He recognised the principle of univer sal suffrage, and he pledged himself to originate a motion for the admission of scot and lot voters. He would vote for shortening the duration of Parliaments; he should not object Dr. WADE (the subject of the parallel just referred to) moved a resolution laudatory of Mr. Murray, in the course of which the Reverend Speaker took occasion to rail in no very Christian terms against the Times. A simpleton, standing near the Chair, was, upon this, cocked up to propose " three groans for the Times;" the de cided and unanimous manner i❑ which this proposition was seouted totally disconcerted him. A resolution was then proposed for returning Mr. Murray free of expense. Before the question was put to the meeting, a gentleman ventured to offer a word on behalf of Mr. W. Brougham, who had been severely attacked, when a scene of the utmost disorder took place The " lie" was repeatedly given and retorted between the hustings and the area ; the Chair man's authority seemed wholly overpowered, and strong symp. toms appearing of a war more energetic than that of words, we took our leave. FINSBURY-MR. TEMPLE. Last night a numerous meeting of the electors (upwards of 2,000) of Finsbury was held in lons's Riding-school, to hear Christopher Temple, Esq., deliver an exposition of his political principles. _THOMAS WILSON, Esq., of Highbury, was called to the chair. Mr. TEMPLE then proceeded to address the meeting. Having no previous public duty to point to, he felt that it was necessary he should give decisive opinions on particular ques tions, but he thought that he must be a bold man who would say he had made up his mind on complicated questions; but upon the application of general principles to facts, he was ready to give his as <urance as to what would be his precise conduct.— (Hear.) For instance, the Bank and the East India monopol polies were complicated questions, and he could not say what measures should be taken in respect to them—but as mono polies lie would say the public had a right to deal with them, and they ought to be disposed of in a manner that would,sccure the interests of the people at large.— (Cheers.) The reforma tion of the Church he was prepared to support, and was for a suppression of pluralities, the abolition or commutation of tithes, and a more equal distribution of Church revenues among minis ters (Cheers.) With regard to retrenchment in the public expenditure he was compelled by reason of the extent of the question to speak generally, but he was for the cheapest go vernment that could be secured.—(Hear.) The sinecures and the standing army should be cut down as low as possible; in. deed, if possible, lie should like to see both abolished, and he was sure a wise Legislature could accomplish that desirable object. — (Cheers.) He was of opinion that taxes upon food, industry, and instruction, were founded upon mistaken princi. pies, and he should therefore advocate their removal, particu larly the house and assessed taxes.—(Cheers.) The removal of those taxes would certainly produce a deficiency in the re venue, but instead of making up that deficiency by : a new tax the Government ought to curtail its expenses in proportion.— (Cheers.) As to taxes on knowledge, he did not quarrel with the amount so much as with the principle; and he certainly could wish that knowledge was more freely circulated among the people.--(Hear.) He had become a reluctant convert to the vote by ballot.—(Cheers.) He considered triennial Parlia_ ments a part of the Constitution established in 1688, and that long Parliaments were invented by corrupt Ministers for evil purposes, and they had been found a deadly engine in such hands, therefore they ought to be abolished, and triennial Parliaments restored.—(Cheers.) He was in favour of negro emancipation. With regard to compensation, that might or might not be given—indeed, he would give it, but not as a condition for the emancipation of the slaves. He was averse to slavery under any form, and therefore he felt that the im pressment of our seamen and the discipline of our soldiers were inconsistent with the principles of humanity, freedom, and the British Constitution, and ought to be abolished; and there was no reason why they should not be instantly abolished.—(Cheers.) He was a firm friend to religious liberty ; he was for the exercise of toleration towards all sects, and would have them relieved from every civil imposi tion which they could not conscientiously submit to.—(Cheers.) He pledged himself to principles, and he would conscientiously apply his principles to every public question —(Applause.) Mr. GREEN had written to Mr. Grant, another of the can didates, to know whether he would support a Bill to amend Sturges Bourne's Act, and he replied that it was the first time he had heard of the Act or its subject—(Laughter)—and that, if returned, he would consider it gravely, form an opinion deli berately, and act upon it honestly.--(Loud laughter.) Now he ( Mr. Green) wished to know if Mr. Temple would support such a Bill, and the extension of the franchise in parochial vestries to every 101. rate-payer ?—(Hear.) He hoped Mr. Temple would give an honest answer, since he had understood that ••••• that gentleman had sacrificed 1,0001. to principle in one in• stance.—(Cheers.) Mr. TEMPLE had been in his own parish long struggling for popular rights and the extinction of exclusive privileges.— (Bravo.)—He was for putting the management of the parochial funds into the hands of the parishioners at large, and would assist to find a remedy for the evil alluded to.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. LANGLEY asked whether Mr. Temple would sup port an equalization of the land-tax, which at present was exorbitantly high in some districts, while in others it was not more than a penny in the pound ? Mr. TEMPLE replied in the affirmative. A resolution, declaring Mr. Temple a fit and proper person to become a representative for this borough--moved by Mr. Cole, seconded by Mr. Green—was then adopted, with about half-a-dozen hands held up against it. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the meeting dispersed. ASHTON-UNDER.LYNE.—A Conservative candidate for this borough has made his appearance, in the person of Thomas W. Helps, Esq., barrister-at-law, son of Thomas Helps, Esq., of London, who carried on business at Ashton for the space of forty years. It is thonght that he has little chance of success; but the contest between Colonel Williams and Mr. Hindley is expected to be a neck-and-neck-one. BRIGHTON.—Sir A. J. Dalrymple has again come for. word as a candidate for Brighton. BRISTOL—Sir R. R. Vyvyan's hopes of success are greatly increased by the feuds among the Whig Reformers and the Radical Reformers, who have three candidates in the field, viz., Messrs. Baillie and Protheroe, the late Members, and Mr. John Williams, the barrister. The Whig Reformers will sup port Mr. Baillie, whilst the Radical Reformers are unanimously in favour of Protheroe and Mr. Williams. The Mayor and Magistrates leave announced their intention of receiving the names of one thousand of their fellow-citizens who will volun teer to serve as special constables, and assist in preserving the peace during the elections. Hot work is expected. BURY, LANCASHIRE.—At a nocturnal meeting held at Bury on Saturday se'nnight, and attended by nearly 12,000 friends of Mr. Grundy, the Ultra-Radical candidate, it was una nimously resolved,—" That we do solemnly pledge ourselves that we will not henceforward spend a single penny with any elector who shall give his vote to the enemy of the people; and that lists of the voters for each candidate shall be published im mediately after the election, specifying their respective occupa tions and residences." This resolution has been published in a placard, bearing the names of several individuals who have thus rendered themselves liable to a prosecution for a conspiracy. CARLISLE.—Mr. Atherley declines standing, finding, lie says, " that it would be attended with no other result than a contest, in which I should have the worst of it." CA MBRIDGE.—We understand that the Speaker has an nounced his intention of becoming a candidate for the repre sentation of Cambridge. CHESTER. —We are very busy electioneering here. There are three candidates for the city—Lord Robt. Grosvenor and Mr. Finchett Maddock, the present Members, and Mr. J. Jervis, a barrister. The re.election of Lord Robert is looked upon as certain ; but the contest will be a severe one between the other two. Mr. Jervis starts upon the ultra-Radical and anti-Corporation interest; and his strong hold is the local reforms which he promises to accomplish. Mr. Finchett Mad. dock, on the other hand, is supported by all the wealth of the city, and is accompanied in his canvass by some of the first people in the town. His politics are liberal (he is a Member of the Whig Club) but he declines to pledge himself to more than general principles. It is confidently asserted that the Liberal candidates—Lord Grosvenor and Mr. Wilbraham—or rather their friends _have agreed to a union of interests, as indis. pensably necessary to prevent one of them being pushed off his stool by Sir Philip Egerton, the " Conservative" candidate. If this be true, the return of both the old Members is certain. CIRENC ESTER. —Th e Hon. P. P. Bouverie, brother of the Earl of Radnor, is a candidate for Cirencester. DERBY.—The list of voters for this borough, as revised by the barristers, having been published, the sitting Members, Colonel Cavendish and Edward Strutt, Esq., again commenced a canvass on Monday last. Sir Charles Henry Colville has also been actively engaged in paying his respects to the electors.—Derbyshire Courier. FINSBUR Y.—A meeting was held last night at Mr. Col. tier's, the Golden Anchor Tavern, Great Saffivn.hill, of the friends of the Right Honourable Robert Grant, who is now a candidate for the borough of Finsbury. R. Stevens, Esq., was jog the most det ermined support of Mr. Grant, were adopted, , Comhamir and was ably support e d. R es olutions, embody. ittee appointed, which will, no doubt, sit daily at taihnnedth a e c Golden Anchor. The most confident expectations are entertained of the return of the Right Hon. Gentleman, who to a new Parliament once a week. He should wish to see many of the intelligent working classes in Parliament.—(Ap plause.) Property qualification was one of the greatest absur dities, and one of the grossest acts of tyranny. He would support the vote by ballot.—(Applause.) He pledged him self to vote for the abolition of tithes—(Huzzas)—and for the separation of the Church and State, which was an adulterous connexion.—(Huzzas.) [The speaker here proceeded to insti tute a parallel between our Saviour and Dr. Wade, into which we refrain from following him.] He pledged himself to vote for the abolition of taxes on knowledge, which were enforced in the most odious form by the Wing Government, and which alone, if there was nothing else, were sufficient to damn them. He should vote for the abolition of negro slavery, a crime against the human species. He would vote for the repeal of the corn laws, which were the result of the national debt. He pledged him self to vote for the abolition of the Bank charter, the East India monopoly, and of all close Corporations.—(Applause) He understood all those subjects as well as any man in England ; he had written on them all. Another pledge he gave was, that he would vote for disbanding a standing army in time of peace, which was first introduced by the Whigs; and an excellent con trivance it was to keep the people in order. He Would never vote for a single tax if they sent him to Parliament.—(Bravo.) He wished to have no taxes at all.—(Bravo.) After Mr. HUNT and Mr. LAWLESS had addressed the meeting, is, indeed, in every respect well ealecilated to rei , resent the borough of Finsbury. GREEN WICH.—A most numerous respectable meet. ing of the Committees and friends of the Reform candidate (Mr. Angerstein) was held at the White Hart Inn, in Green- Skid], on Thursday evening last, scion the most satisfactory reports of the state of the canvass were made to the meeting by the agents, and the certainty of Mr. Angerstein's return ap peared to be placed beyond doubt. HALIFAX.—The Hon. J. S. Wortley canvassed the electors of this borough on Friday. Some of the burgesses, seeing him enter their shops with sulooth address and placid smile, natu rally mistook him fur a commercial gentleman, and his can. vass-book for a pattern card. In one instance he announced himself to an elector as " Mr. Wortley," when the elector replied, " from what house, Sir ?" The candidate explained his business ; but his "pattern card" was condemned as an imitation, and he had no samples which could produce an order. LEICESTER.—Mr, Evans and Mr. Wynn Enis are to be opposed by a Conservative candidate, Mr. Boughton Leigh, of Brownsover, near Lutterworth, whit modestly says that he ex pects one of the other candidates will "bolt" befOre the election. LONDON.—It is satisfactory to learn that arrangement, hare been made for taking the votes of the resident house holders in the City at their respective district polling-places ; so that the votes may be given without parties being ex posed to the inconvenience and annoyance which hrve hitherto attended the exclusive polling in Guildhall. Sixteen of these district polling-places, in various parts of the City, flee been fixed upon. MANCHESTER.—The nomination here will be in St. Anne's.square, near the church. The poll will be taken in houses, not on hustings. The friends of each candidate, at a meeting on Friday, agreed to pay Into the hands of the Borough_ reeve 1001. each, of which the surplus will be returned when the election is over. The tally system was hinted at, but it has been scouted by all parties. Flags and banners are to he dispensed with. The Boroughreeve proposed that bludgeon. men should be employed to keep clear the entrance of the polling-houses, but the subject was postponed. The order of nomination will be:-1. Phillips-2. Cobbett-3. Lloyd-4. Hope-5. Thomson. MIDDLESEX.—The polling places at the approaching elec tion of the Members tor Middlesex (and the votes will only be received at the place appointed for the district in which the property is situated) are Brentford, Enfield, King's-cross (Battle.bridge), Hammersmith, Bedfont, Edgeware, Mile.end, and Uxbridge. A numerous body of the electors of Middle. sex residing in Highgate and the adjoining districts met Mr. Hume last night at the Gatehouse Tavern, Highgate, J. D. Holm, Esq., in the Chair. Mr. Hume was well received. NORTHAMPFON.—Mr. Bainbridge, a Hampshire gen. tleman, unconnected hitherto with this town, but known among a wide circle of his friends as a mats of liberal opi nions, and a warm supporter of Isis Majesty's present Admi nistration, has presented himself as the successor to Sir G. Robinson, and has commenced an,active canvass in conjunc tion _ with our present representative, Mr. Vernon Smith. They are opposed by Mr. Ross, the present M.P. for St. Ger mainS, who has succeeded to the Conservative support which used to be given to his relative, Sir R. Gunning.—Northamp. ton Mercury. NOTTINGHAM.—Captain Gordon, the opponent of all Reform, the stanch advocate of the old Tory school, has de clared himself a candidate for the representation of this town. PONTEFRACT.—We have some additions to make to the list of retiring Conservative candidates since our notice of last week. Lord Mexborough has retired from Pontefract on the mere app6rance of a second Reformer in the field. Lord Robert Manners has given up the northern division of Leicestershire, for which his Lordship, with all the powerful influence of the Rutland family, has been canvassing for some months past ; his opponent, Gen. Johnson, the second Reform candidate, had scarcely been as many days before the consti tuency when the Noble Lord found it prudent to beat a retreat. SOUTH WARK.—This borough is all on the qui vine, and, now that the dissolution of Parliament has taken place, the se veral candidates ar eat their posts. The gentlemen at present in the field are Mr. W. Brougham, Mr. L. B. Allen, Mr. She riff' Humphery, mid Mr. Murray. The contest, which will be a very smart one, is expected to be between Mr. Allen and the Sherif]: Mr. Brougham is considered safe. STAFFORD.— A handbill circulated here states, that many of the new 101. electors of this borough have applied for and re. ceived money on account of their voting to represent this bo rough its the Reformed Parliament ; and that there was quite a scramble among these pure patriots for the tickets given away by the agents of the candidates. The tickets entitle the " fortunate holders" to half-a-crown or five shillings -worth of drink I REASONS OF A FINSBURY ELECTOR FOR THE DISPOSAL OF HIS NEWLY-ACQUIRED FRANCHISE. —That he will ♦ote for Mr. Grant, as a Member of the Go vernment, in gratitude to them for the Reform Bill ;—that he will vote for Mr. Babbage, because he possesses a high re putation, and is nut a lawyer. SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. The d'scussions on the rehiress, in the French Chamber of Deputies, have been rathe r warm, but it ye at t h e sam e time been c inducted with more order than usual. The attacks of the Osposirl on on he Ministry, from the di•eroportion of th e arita tonist parties in the Legi la - lire, have led to ti e a option of no amendment, and s . crreely to the mo d:fic.ition of a single phrase of the address. M. o.lillon sarrot and his friends are evidently atarmed :t being confounded with the insureerits of J e n s last, and with the assassin of the 19th ult. They cannot, therefore, speak their sentiments freely, Ober to Frence or to the Liberals of tither rations, .rho look to France for encouragement. Never was powerful popular party so comple , ely overwhelmed Fry events which it did not intend to twoduce, and .o er which it had probably no control. The speeches e" M. (Hilton B 'trot, in these oppressive en earn sri:nees, evince both tact rid talent. The Min seers, es id es the general declaration of their political prin ciples, through the mouth of M. Thiers and Marshal Sault, attempted to justify their late conduct on all points, anti showed such a force even on he question of ti:" Paris state of sie ge, that the Opposition %Vete' afraid to try their strength in a ;noel vote against them. The apipiwiria para . raph of the address saaa therefore adopted without try amendment or division, This unanimity in the Chamber, or rather this feehlanesa of the movement. party, deprives the disci,ssion on thg address of 'early all the Interest which, io other circumstances, t tsar calculated ro excite. Mais!.al Soult, in de 'snditrg the external and internal of the Givernmeht, was listened to with marked to entiotr and seemed to met with general assent. Is 9pi-Ik irig of the Belgic question, he used none of that high-sounding language, as President of the CHM.. I.: 1, which he uttered last Session on the same epic, as Minister of War. " Nothing," he said, was changed in the foreign relations of France. 1 remained to consolidate the general peace by the execution of treaties; and to make the hartnvny of the great Powers evident to all interests. It was therefore necessary to dissipate the last pretext for he embarrassments which existed in Europe, and thus to prove the fidelity of alt Cabinets to engage ments which they had taken in common" Tars sp. aks pl only enough the pacific views and hopes of the French Government, but the folloeing allusion to the movements of the Prussian forces on the Rhine i s •iill more explicit and satisfactory :—" The co operation of England and France w ill be soffit:sent to attain the desired object. If, on the other hand, precautions have been imposed by a natural pru dence on a neighbouring state, in the presence of military movements, there is nothing io them to -ham the most suspicious policy. These are mea sures which the most ordinary caution would coun sel to every people in such a case; and we have opposed to them on our part measures of the same kind, which establish in our means of observation the most perfect and satisfactory balance. They ought to be regarded, therefore, rather as the ,;i:arantees of peace than the eventual mei - tame of war." The Marshal, in speaking of the operas. riot's of the siege of Antwerp, with the diffi culties or facilities of which he roust be so well acquainted, held out strong hopes of a speedy result. These operations are to be pushed forward with di e greatest activity, and in a few days we shall be able to mark their termination in a precise mermen Success w.II not be long waited for." In the Chamber of Peers the address was adopted on Wednesday with only a minority of 8 i The basis 'Jess of the session has begun by the submission of the budget, or the estimates of 1833 to the Cliams her. The new Minister of Finance (M. Humann) seems to have shown great activity in arranging the necessary business of his department so scot) after his appointment. The estimates for the next year require an extraordinary expenditure of 166,000,000 of francs, or more than 6,500,0001. sterling. The ordinary supplies amount only to 966,000,000 of ';arcs, or somewhat more than 37,500,0004 The in crest of the public debt absorbs 359,000,000, or about 14,360,0001. sterling of this sum. In the eollection of the revenue nearly 5,000,000/. seerling ere expended. After allowing 17,000,000 of francs for the civil list and pensions, there only remains about 18,000,0004 sterling for all ordinary supplies of the year. Of this sum the Ministry of Trade and Public Works (formerly that of the Ins terior) receives about 5500,000/. sterling. The xpentliture for the army, ordinary arid extraordinary, is estimated at 316,000,000 of francs, or more than 12,600,000/. stetling. The navy and ether branches of the public service are less onerous for the country. The whole produce of the annual taxes, composing the ordinary ways and means, to meet this great expenditure, is estimated only at 966,630,000 francs, rat 47,640,0001. sterling. About 167,000,000 francs or nearly 6,700,0001, will therefore require to be provided by loans or by the sale of the national f rests. The immense armed establishments of France thus impose upon her finances burdens and embarrassments which have increased every year since the late revolution, and which it ought to be the policy of her Government to reduce by endea vouring to disarm herself, and by persuading her neighbours to follow her example.—Times. We have received a very long report of an is. teres'ing festival, which took place at B rmitigham s on Thursday last, to celebrate the anniversary of that glorious revolution which broke out at Warsaw en the 29th of November, 1830, which engrossed, f o r eight or nine months, the interest and admira tion of mankind, by splendid vie ones, and more heroic sacrifices, and which will never be ft rgotten so long as an altar cart be erected to patriotism arid freedom With this warm feeling in favour of the Polish nation and their noble cause, we would with pleasure. insert an account of the enthusiastic proceedings at Birmingham, could we spare room from the more urgent calls of necessary busi ness. We are glad to see the interest of the Polish struggle and of the Polish people main tained, by meetings over the country, and ex tended by literary societies established for collect ing and diffusing information respecting Poland. It is a consolation to the brave exiles who have sa crificed their fortunes and their home rather than submit to a despot, to find a sympathy for their sufferings, and a respect for their virtues, among their brother freemen of England; arid it cannot fail to be useful to English freemen themselves in prosperous circumstances, ro be reminded at what saerifices liberty arid indepeodence roust sometimes he purchased, if they are to he permanently enjoyed. The convulsions of Europe may yet throw back the scattered exiles to the bunks of the Vistula, its they once did bsfore in the case of the Polish Le gion; arid it will then be graiifying to reflect, that we have encouraged the hopes, and preserved the memory, of a people without a country, till the pe riod of their final restoration. Their temporary tri umphs were too pure of excesses, and too closely allied with the permanent interests of liberty, to be wondered at for a season and forgotten, like the brilliant flashes of the meteoric lights in their own :sort here sky.— Times. Our readers would observe in our yesterday's paper (copied from the Lisbon Gazette) the pro tests of the English Consul at Oporto and of Capt. Glascock, commanding our ships of war in the Douro, against the wanton outrage to which the Raven cutter was subjected, off the bar of Oporto, by the troops of Santa Martha, Don Miguel's Ge neral, together with the answer of that officer to these remonstrances. We have since seen an eye witness of this disgraceful transaction, and are thus enabled to correct—though in doing so we can scarcely restrain our indignation — sort ie of the Mi -1 guelite General's statements. But it may be first worth while to remark the revolting arrogance with which Santa Martha, under the instructions of his Government, prescribe s the manner and even de signates the vessel by which alone the colnlnUul. catiMlB between the British Government and subjects are to be effected. It has, it wouli! stern, been decreed by the Dey of Lisbon Ikt other vessel but the Echo 51e-mer EMBARGO ON DUTCH VESSELS. (From the London Gazette Extraordinary of last n;glit.) At the Court of St. James's, the 3d day of December, 183'2, PRESENT, The King's Most Excellent Majesty in Council, It is this day ordered by his Majesty in Council that his Ma. jesty's Order in Council of the 6th of November last, directing that no ships or vessels belonging to any of his Majesty's subjects be permitted to enter and clear out for any of the ports within the dominions of the King of the Netherlands until further orders, shall not extend or be construed to extend to prevent any ship or vessel belonging to his Majesty's subjects from en tering and clearing out from any ports or places in the posses sion of or belonging to his Majesty the King of the Nether lands in the East or West Indies, or in Africa or America, but that all such ships and vessels shall be permitted to enter and clear out for the ports and places aforesaid as they might have done before the date of the said Order. And the Itight Honourable the Lords Commissioners ° d un- Majesty's Treasury, and the Lords Commissioners of the A ratty, the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, and the Judge the High Court of Admiralty, are to give the necessary direc tions herein as to them may respectively appertain. C. C. GREVILLE. At the Court at St. James's, the 3d day of December, 1832, PRUSCNT, The King's Most Excellent Majesty in Council, It is this day ordered by his Majesty in Council that all ves sels under Dutch colours having cargoes on board consisting of perishable articles, and which ships shall have been, or hereafter maybe, detained under the embargo laid by his Majesty's Order in Council of the 6th of November last, or that have been, or may hereafter be, sent in by any of his Majesty's ships of war in pursuance of such Order, be forthwith released, and that all such vessels with their cargoes, consisting of perishable articles as aforesaid, shall be permitted to proceed on their respective voyages. And the Right Honourable the Lords Commissioners of his Majesty's Treasury, the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, and the Judge of the High Court of Admiralty, are to give the necessary directions herein as to them may respectively appertain. C. C. GREVILLE. OLD BAILEY.-(THIS DAY.) Thomas Lokfincle, aged 22, was indicted for stealing in the dwelling house of a Jew named Wertlumeir, 47 sovereigns, several bank notes, and a great variety of valuable articles of jewellery. From the evidence it appeared that the pro, secutor was a collector of alma for several Jewish chari ties, and that on the 2d of November, the desk in his bed-room was broken open and the property mentioned in the indictment stolen out of it. The prisoner was suspected of the robbery inconsequence of his having been employed sometime previously to the robbery to paint the house for the prosecutor, and, in the course of that employment, had several opportuni ties of seeing the prosecutor deposit money in the desk of the bed.room, added to which the prisoner, who had been obliged to leave his lodging in consequence of his inability to pay his rent, some few days after the robbery took place, was seen to have in his possession a great deal of money. The evi. dence against the prisoner being extremely loose and unsatis. factory, the Jury acquitted him. John Read, alias Reeve, aged 28, was indicted for the man. slaughter of Charles James. It appeared that on the 29th of October James and a person named Spencer had been to a public house, from which they were returning about two o'clock in the morning rather the worse for liquor. On arriving at Wych. street, they were met by four or five men, one of whom was the prisoner. A scuffle ensued, and the party getting warm upon the subject, a regular fight commenced between the pri soner and James, who, on being struck on the chest, immedi ately fell down, which caused a severe contusion on his head, of which he died in a few days. Several witnesses were examined, who spoke to the affray; and one policeman positively deposed to seeing the prisoner strike the deceased. Mr. Justice BOSANQUET summed up, and the Jury, after a quarter of an hour's consultation, found the prisoner Guilty. Catherine Spitler, a rather respectable looking female, aged 53, was indicted for the manslaughter of a young girl, named Mary Elizabeth Landon, on t lie 7th of November, by affixing a corrosive plaster to her head, and administering to her, in the shape of physic, several deleterious and dangerous drugs, which caused her death. Mr. John Carter, a surgeon, residing at 36, South-street, Manchester-square, was called, and was under examination when our reporter left. The facts of the case have been fully detailed in the Police reports. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TA TTERSALL'S. There was a thin attendance yesterday, and but little business Was done.
