iniividual returned. Surely, after this, we sha nd be told that to demand vote by ballot, There are no accounts from Antwerp at the Embassies, of a later date than those which appear in the Morning Papers. A private letter, dated Thursday, states that Marshal GERARD had resolved to protract the siege, rather than endanger the City, without the concurrence of the King of BELGIUM ; but that the latter, aware of the importance to him of the early surrender of the Citadel, was likely to leave the further mode of attack to the discretion of the French Commander-in-Chief. LEOPOLD has requested all his former Ministers to retain their portefeuilles, but most of them have refused. The Prussian Ambassador has had despatches from Berlin, which are said to be of the most pacific character. The Prussian Cabinet is stated to be using earnest endeavours to put an end to the present contest between France and Holland. We understand that it is proposed to start a Conservative Candidate for Middlesex, in the room of Lord HENLEY. Who this personage may be, we have not yet heard ; but we learn that it is one of the City Magistrates. An express has been received from Paris bringing the papers of Thursday and the Mes• sager des Chambres, dated yesterday. They are principally filled with accounts from the seat of war, and the expected opposition which Will be shown in the Chamber of Peers against the introduction of the law sur l'etdt de siege. The greatest excitement prevails in Paris on the result of the expedition into Belgium, but the general opinion is that a continental war will be avoided, especially as neither Austria, Russia, for Prussia are at present in a state to commence any effective military operations, they having enough to do at home. A telegraphic despatch was received on Thursday by Marshal SOULT from Marshal GERARD, announcing that the operations were bein g carried on with the greatest activity, but that the citadel will not be able to be taken without an attack is also made on the city side, as CHASsE has a full command of the town. A Council of Ministers was held shortly after, and messengers were sent off to Brussels and Antwerp with private instructions. Important news Was hourly expected from the head quarters of the army. The Prussian Ambassador had a long inter. view with the Duke de BROGUE, Minister for Foreign Affairs, on Wednesday evening. It is reported that he positively declared that Prussia Would remain perfectly neutral in the contest between Holland and Belgium, unless the French troops should enter Holland ; that then, according to treaties, she would be bo u nd to assist King WILLIAM. The French Minister assured his Excellency that France had no fur ther views than the fulfilment of the treaty entered into between the Cabinet of St. James's and that of the Tuileries ;—that once accom plished, the French army would return to France. Strong reinforcements are preparing in dif ferent points of France, in case the war should be protracted, notwithstanding the pacific as surances of the northern Powers. An attempt has been made in Paris to raise a Russian loan, but the moneyed men are very reluctant to have any dealings at present with the Northern Au tocrat. The news from Madrid, up to the 6th, states that the QUEEN was most indefatigable in her exertions for the liberal cause, as in case of the demise of FERDINAND, a desperate struggle will take place for the throne. FERDINAND was nearly restored to his usual health. Paris continues tranquil. The Funds rather heavy at Wednesday's quotation. S HIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.) FROM LLOYD'S.

We understand, from a highly respectable sauce, that Prince TA LLEYRAND and Lord PALMERSTON have agreed on the basis of a poposal, by which an arrangement for the paci fration of Portugal might be effected; but as nothing can be done without the concurrence of tie Spanish Government, and as the Carlist in firence in Spain is still very great, it is much to b. feared that nothing will be done for Don PEDRO, by which his present position would be improved. 1V4 4 0 , 9,, '•ti ANTWERP. (From the Times.) _ _ ANTWERP, DEC. 12, WEDNESDAY EVENING. The appearance of the citadel, at which I gazed during an hour and a half this evening, was hideous,—its buildings in ruins,—its parapets and embrasures torn,—its fire nearly ex_ tinct,—not a creature passing within it, while the French bombs continued to shower upon it. The defence, which was hitherto so decided, seemed to relax. Scarcely a cannon was fired off in it, but a considerable fusilade was kept up from the right flank of the bastion Fernando. Judging from the direction of this musketry, it would appear that the works of the French approach near to the counterscarp of the left flank of the demilune, between the bastions Toledo and Pacietto. The French bombardment from Fort Montebello, and one or two batteries near it, was incessant. This continual fire, which is now as resolute as ever, is, as it appears, one of the proceedings of a regular siege, and has for object to pre vent the besieged from all attempts at new constructions in the citadel, and also to protect the workmen i❑ the trenches, &c. The French engineers are amused with the siege, which they say is but an easy practical lesson, at which they can take their own time. The Fort St. Laurent is represented as silent, per haps in expectation of the attack which is said to be prepared for this night. In different parts of the city, and particularly near the Cathedral, the report of the shots of all kinds is re-echoed, by which means those who do not hear the original sound arc sure to perceive its repetition. Those noises which a fortnight ago were calculated to strike terror, are now heard by many with unconcern. The French soldiers feel, too, the force of habit ; they do not start as at first at the shells thrown among them. They are described as eager to have the affair over; and the officers state their resolution to take the citadel by assault, when that period, according to the regular progress of the siege, shall ar rive. Some now praise the defence of the garrison ; but they express their determination to take vengeance when the storm ing parties enter. The following anecdote, related by an officer who witnessed it last night, will illustrate this feeling. A shell burst in a part of the trenches, and desperately wounded a soldier, who exclaimed with his last breath, " Give me my musket, that I may return the fire." In proportion as the defences of the citadel grows weak, the greater, in the opinion of some persons, becomes the security of the city. Its neutrality will be allowed by the garrison, if any credit can be placed in the assertions of a Brussels journal, formerly a violent patriot, but now the despised sup porter of the Anti-Belgian Government of the Dutch Monarch, which asserts that it has the best authority for stating that that Monarch has sent instructions to General Chasse to respect the city. If the King of Holland wishes to prove his moderation, why not accept and act by the treaty of November, 183'2 ? Why sacrifice his best Dutchmen for nothing in this useless contest ? WEDNESDAY NIGHT, 10 O'CLOCK. The determination of the French Generals to spend eight or ten days more in the siege than what the Dutch defence re quires, is now evident. Their batteries continue to fire as usual upon the citadel, where, as French eye-witnesses of the last few hours state, the soldiers hide themselves at every bomb that arrives, and fire merely some rampart guns when they fear no danger. The garrison occasionally threw out some pots du feu, which some French soldiers wished to extinguish, when a dozen of the rampart guns were let off; and, of course, some of those that approached the light became victims. Some persons who express surprise at the small number of soldiers killed by the fire and sorties of the garrison, ima gine that General Chasse has the intention of sacrificing a great number when the assault is made; the breaching batte- ries will, it seems expected, he in play within two or three days, and the French are resolved to take time to make them as little expensive of the lives of their soldiers as possible. One of the batteries destined to break the left face of the bastion Toledo is said to be in a state of great forwardness. There are now two French opinions of the non-military respecting the defence,—first, it is said that the garrison having double the number it requires, ought, if determined to sell itself clearly, to have made sorties, and to have slaughtered thousands of the assailants ; but, say those reasoners, the Dutch now defend themselves feebly behind the walls, and dare not venture out. Another opinion is, that the Dutch are doing as well as can be expected, and of this opinion are those who do not wish to disparage the Dutch garrison, lest there should not be sufficient glory for the army that is to make it surrender. Part of the wall of Fort St. Laurent is described as mined according to report, and in three cavities of which 1,500 kilo.. grammes of powder are placed, with the train laid, to be blown up when required. In this fort there are said to be 300 men, whom Marshal Gerard is desirous of taking, as well as the whole of the garrison, prisoners of war. The Dutchmen in Fort St. Laurent are said, by the same report, to have offered to give up the fort, provided they be permitted to retire into the citadel, but the besiegers have refused those terms, as they have guns so placed as to overwhelm this party in the gorge, in case they should attempt to force a passage. It is, therefore, asserted that the men in the fort must surrender at discretion. All this report requires confirmation. THURSDAY MORNING, DEC. 13. The obstinacy of the King of Holland continues still to draw down a dreadful fire upon the ill-fated garrison of the citadel, of which the chjef defence now is the wish of the French not to shed the blood of their soldier& " If," as they say, " we were pressed for time, by the fears of the approach of an army to relieve the citadel, we should storm it directly; but now we proceed slowly and surely, without any unne cessary risks. The opinions of some unprejudiced Britons relative to the King of Holland are now shaken by this act of foolish obsti nacy, if not wanton barbarity, and they turn with bitterness towards the extraordinary policy of the faction in Great Bri tain, who, more than the absolute Powers, have during the last mouth abetted all the absurdities of the Dutch King, and led hia subjects to destruction. What do they gain by this fruitless defence of the citadel ? Not glory, nor sympathy. The honest, the clear-sighted classes of mankind will hence forward treat with the strongest feelings of scorn and execra tion a faction which, with the desire of destroying freedom in their own country, have led a narrow-minded spirit to commit an act that, by the actual common law of Europe, is already pronounced as deserving public detestation. 10 O'CLOCK. I have made inquiries into the real state of the besieging army, and find that there is no truth as to the shutting up of Fort St. Laurent, as the garrison there can be removed or in creased at the pleasure of General Chasse : within the last 24 hours there have been but very few soldiers in it, and there have been but few guns fired from it. The mine, which is to do it injury, is described as much advanced. K. BRUSSELS, THURSDAY, 2 O'CLOCK, P.M. Accounts have reached this which left Antwerp at eight this morning ; the firing was then going on, though not so brisk as on the preceding day, nor with so much effect on the part of the Dutch, as many of their shells and shot were thrown from their sheltered batteries in the centre of the citadel. The following accounts are from the principal morning papers : SIEGE OF THE CITADEL-(THIRTEENTII DAY.) ANTWERP, DES, 12. (From the Moniteur Belge.—Official account.) The third parallel opened in the very glacis of the covered way of the bastion No. 2, and which extends to the extremity of the approach parallel to the left front of the Lunette St. Laurent, was completely worked through last night, and the workmen are now sheltered. During the day the workmen were occupied in enlarging the trench and completing the parapet. The enemy again discharge bombs from the bastion No. 1; but as they were shot from the interior of the citadel, they were too distant to annoy us much. Some men in the third parallel only were hit. The 44) mortars now placed near the citadel are at less than 400 metres from the works. These, by their well-directed and brisk fire, aided by those of so many cannon and howitzers, have already produced the most destructive effects to the enemy. The buildings (of the citadel) have been burnt, and the masked places have been torn down and rendered uninhabitable. According to the accounts of a Dutch deserter, who was a sentinel at the burnt arsenal, the garrison are actually crowded together in their unwholesome casements. A bomb bad got into one of them and put 10 or 12 men hors de combat. Some of the provisions for the garrison were destroyed by the late conflagration of the buildings. General Chasse is very seldom seen by the men. There is now reason to believe that the works already completed will soon make us masters of the Lunette St. Laurent. ANTWERP, DEC. 12, 3, P.M. Nothing of any striking importance has yet occurred in the operations of the siege; the fire at both sides is continued and relaxed at intervals. Unfortunately, shot and shells now and then fall in the city. A woman, this morning, passing with her husband's dinner through Rue de la Cuiller, was killed. A bomb fell yesterday in the Rue de Pompe, and wounded a child. Up to this morning there have been only '27 amputations in the military hospital. From the top of the Cathedral tower the soldiers in the Lunette St. Laurent may be plainly seen. Their number is not so great as we were led to believe. We can see them with their muskets watching the movements of the workmen, and firing on them, and then lying on their faces to avoid the shots sent back to them. The whole of the wounded in the citadel have been con veyed to the Tete de Flandres. It is said that their number is very considerable, which we can easily believe. Wedo not hear the cannon this morning from the left bank of the Scheldt. BERCIIEM, 5 O'CLOCK, p.m. At this moment a brisk cannonade is going on, accom pained by a sharp fusilade. It is chiefly on the side of the bastions of Alba and Toledo that the fire is best kept up. We hear some reports of cannon at the Flanders' side, but at a great distance. _ . Fort Frederick, situated in advance of Lillo, and near Berendrecht, was yesterday armed by the division of General .chard. Many hospital waggons have left Berchem this evening with wounded men on their road to Mechlin. The works of the third parallel are going on. The engineers are also employed in placing small mines under the left flank of the Lunette St. Laurent, and under the half.moon opposite to it. The batteries are being armed in succession, and in a few days the whole of the 24-pounders will be in their new po_ sitions, and ready to batter in breach. Every thing necessary to make a descent into the fosse, ga- biong, fascine;', &e., are all ready in the place d'armes of Montebello. The cannons of the besiegers being now so near the citadel, they must be productive of still greater effect than before. We must admit that the defence of Chasse is admirable, and worthy of a brave soldier. He does not use all the means at his disposal. He has made no more than a brave defence when attacked, for it has been remarked, that when the besiegers re lax their fire, the fire from the citadel is also relaxed. The division of Sebastiani still continues to watch the left side of the Scheldt, and its head-quarters are at Calloo, al though a Brussels journal has had the naivete to say that it had crossed over to the right. The chief object of Sobastiani's position is to cut off from the enemy all communication with Holland, according to the intentions of General Gerard. The details given by a deserter from the citadel are very in teresting, and though he is from Ghent, there is no reason to suspect his veracity. He mentions 500 as being wounded in the citadel, and of the extreme difficulty there was found in taking care of them, and putting them in some place sheltered from shot or shell. One bomb, he says, got into a casemate and killed or wounded 30 men. The appearance of the citadel itself is dreadful : everything is torn up. This man adds, that there are in the garrison many men taken from different pri sons, and whose daring character is still more emboldened by the promises held out to them of a free pardon. He thinks that the place cannot hold out much longer. The interior of the citadel is filled with trunks of trees and planks, so placed as to afford considerable shelter from the shells which fall. A French miner, who worked in the trenches to-day, met his death in a frightful manner. A howitzer discharged from the citadel fell in the parallel. The workmen immediately fell on their faces to avoid its effects as much as possible. One of the soldiers, however, wishing to prevent the loss which he saw must follow its bursting, threw himself down upon it to extinguish the fusee, but was too late! The shell burst at the instant, and tore him to atoms; but he alone was the victim of this act of courage and humanity. J, P. M. No accounts have yet reached this later than those to which I have referred under the head of 2 o'clock, nor has there been cannonading heard here for some hours. No conclusion, how ever, can be drawn from this latter fact, that the firing is not still kept up, for often when it was vigorous we could not hear it here. HALF-PAST 5. Accounts have come down to half-past 1, which describe the fire of the besiegers as being still unrelaxed, but it was feebly returned by the citadel. St. Laurent had not fallen, as I supposed. If we have to announce it to-morrow, it will be as much as we shall do. The Ministry is not yet formed. There is no truth, I am assured, in the report, that the late Ministers have resolved not to resume their portfolios. The Chamber of Representatives has been occupied these two days with debates on the ways and means (the Budget), but if I were to give any account of the discussion, who would read it at present ? I have just been informed that another fire had broken out in the citadel, and was burning at 12. W. BRAZILS AND BRUSSELS PAPERS, RIO DE JANEIRO, OCT. 14. DEPARTMENT OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS.—(OFFICIAL) "Sir,—ln spite of the incessant vigilance with which the Im perial Government has scrupulously endeavoured to observe its engagements, relative to the total abolition of the slave trade some remonstrances are still made against alleged in fractions, perpetrated by individuals whose sordid selfishness must excite general execration, and, as it is convinced that the salutary enactments of the law of Nov. 7, 1831, are in them selves sufficient to frustrate any attempt that may be made clandestinely to import slaves into Brazil, I request your Ex cellency to revive the strict orders given by your predecessors for the liberal observence of those enactments, which, besides being recommended by true policy, are so agreeable to the phi lanthropic sentiments of the General Legislative Assembly, and of the Government of Brazil. God preserve your Excellency, " BENTO DASILVA LISBOA. " ST. HOFORIO HERMETO CARNEIRO LEAO. " Palace of the Government, Oct. 10, 1832."

OcT.2l.—Speech of the Regency in the name of the Em peror on closing the session of the General Legislative As sembly, Oct. 21, 1832. " AUGUST AND WORTHY REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NATION. ' The Regency in the name of the Emperor, Don Pedro I appearing among you to close the present session, feels the most lively satisfaction on informing you that the relations of aninity and harmony with the Governments of both hemis pheres remain unchanged, that new official assurances have lately been received of the interest they take in the prosperity of Brazil, and of their ardent wishes for our young Monarch who is the most sure pledge of the free institutions of the Bra. zilian nation, " In making this agreeable communication, the Regency would be truly rejoiced if it could give you the assurance that tranquillity was enforced in the whole empire of Brazil. Un happily the genius of evil has endeavoured to sow dissension among us ; but it may be hoped that with the Divine assist ance and by measures dictated by strict observance of the laws, perfect tranquillity will be shortly restored. " The Regency cannot think that its hope will be disappointed when it considers the docility and good sense of the Brazilian people, and the most important legislative acts which in this year have proved the wisdom of the General Assembly, and must greatly facilitate the administration of justice, without which there is neither public nor private happiness. " The Regency thank you, august and worthy representa tives of the nation, for the increasing care and zeal which you have manifested for the good of our dear country, and is certain that when you return to your respective provinces, it will be one of your first cares to recommend order and obedience to the authorities, inspiring the just confidence which a Government must acquire that exerts all its powers and care to gain the good opinion of its fellow citizens. The Session is closed. " FRANCISCO DE LIMA E SILVA, " JON DE COSTA CARVALI-10. " JOAO BRAULIO MONIZ." •Diana do Govcrno, Oct. 22. ANTWERP, DEC. 12.—During the last twenty.four hours, the occurrences of the siege have not been remarkable. The cannonade and fire of musketry have scarcely been heard, only that, during one part of the night, an enormous quantity of bombs and shells were thrown on both sides. However, we do not hear that any other building has been burnt in the citadel, where there have been no signs of fire for these four days. The destruction of the sluice, which we spoke of yesterday, cannot wholly drain the moats of the citadel. There still remains water to the depth of three or four feet. Fort St. Laurent, which some journals have so often taken already, and the fall of which they do not fail daily to pro phesy, still holds out. The news that this fort would be cut off deserves no credit; it is absurd. This morning, at 11 o'clock, the cannonade recommenced vigorously, and so continued for an hour and a half. It is re ported that the French have made another attack on Fort St. Laurent, and that it has not been more successful than the preceding. At noon two balls (36 pounders) fell into the house of M. Willemse, rue du Convent, No. 1E429. Three other balls fell into the same house on Friday last. This morning a few shot only were heard towards the Scheldt.

BRUSSELS, DEC. 12.—The King and Queen have trans mitted to the Burgomaster of Antwerp 4,000 florins, to be dis tributed among such of the inhabitants of that city as suffer the most from the events of which it is now the theatre. The King will go again to Antwerp to-day. An aide-de-camp of his Majesty the King of the French passed through this city at midnight, coming from Paris, and proceeding with all speed to the French headquarters. M. Nothaub, Secretary to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, passed through Ghent yesterday (the 11th) with despatches for the British Government. General Niellon is gone to visit the eastern frontier. —Brus sels Papers, Dec. 13. The calling up to the House of Lords the eldest sons of existing Peers is not without precedent— although, of lite years, it has been rarely acted upon. During the last reign the only instance occurred of creat ing the eldest son of a Peer to the Upper House—viz. Earl GOWER, who was summoned to Parliament in 1826, and placed in his father's, the Marquis of STAFFORD'S barony of Gower of Sittenham, county of York. The present Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND, when Earl PERCY, was called to the House of Peers during the lifetime of his father, as was also the present Duke of GoanoN, when Marquis of HUNTLEY. Of the new Peers Gazetted on Tuesday, the Earl of UXBRIDGE is placed in the Marquis of ANGLESEA'S barony of Paget; the Marquis of TAYI• STOCK in the Duke of BEDFORD'S barony of Howland of Streatham, county of Surrey ; Lord STANLEY in the Eat] of DERBY'S barony of Stanley ; Lord GREY, of Groby, who is also included in the hatch, is the eldest son of the Earl of STAMFORD and WARRINGTON, a Tory Peer, wbo voted against the Reform Bill.

The hoax report of Madame VESTRIS having become lessee of that theatre, bad obtained tolerable circulation, although it was well known that she had more engagements offered her than she could possibly accept, to fill up the recess of her Olympic season. GENERAL ELECTION (THIS DAY.) SURREY.—(EAST DIVISION.) This being the day fixed by the High 'Sheriff of the county of Surrey, Miles Stringer, Esq. for the nomination of the candidates for the eastern division at Croydon, the town and its suburbs assumed a very animated ap pearance at an early hour. Only a day or two ago Mr. Alderman Venables an nounced his intention of being a candidate, but in consequence of a sudden and severe illness, be yesterday expressed his intention of withdrawing from the contest. Immediately that determination became known, a Mr. Lainson started, as it was believed, on the " Conservative" interest; he, however, professes to be a Reformer, but the reservation in hisaddress appeared to the electors to savour much of the remnants of Toryism. In the course of the morning the candidates (Mr. Bris coe Mr. T. Allen, Mr. Lainson, and Major Beauclerk) ar rived in the town with their friends, and music and banners. The morning was exceedingly wet, which detracted much from the otherwise imposing appearance of the proces sion. That of Major Beauclerk, however, was most con spicuous, both in regard to banners as well as the re ception he met with. He is by far the most popular can didate; and upon entering the town, the horses were taken from his carriage, and he was drawn by the popu lace, amidst lond"cheers, to his committee-room. Colonel Strnhope, Joseph Hume, Esq., and Erskine Perry, Esq. (late candidate for Chatham), accompanied the gal lant Major. The processions of Mr. Allen and Mr. Lainson passed along the road amidst loud groans and hisses, particularly that of the latter gentleman. Mr. Briscoe slept in the town last night, at the resi• deuce of Mr. Harmer, an eminent brewer. The proceedings were expected to commence at nine or ten o'clock, but whether it was owing to the unfavourable state of the weather, which delayed the Candidates from arriving so early, or from any other cause, we do not know ; but it was more than half-past ten o'clock before the High Sheriff arrived in the town, and it was ten mi• notes to eleven o'clock before he entered the Town Hall, in the Crown Court of which the nomination was to take place. Directly the doors were opened the hall was crowded to suffocation, and it was with difficulty we could obtain admittance, notwithstanding the kind exertions of the High Sheriff, and Mr. Abbott, the Under-Sheriff. How ever, on getting in, we found that ample accommodation had been provided by those gentlemen for the public press, and fur it we tender them our thanks. The proceedings were delayed a short time longer by the non-arrival of Mr. Allen, one of the Candidates; upon his arrival, he was received with loud groans; Mr. Briscoe and Major Beauclerk were warmly greeted. The formalities of reading the writ, and the act of bri• hely at elections, having been gone through, The HIGH SHERIFF, assuming that all present knew the importance of the business they were met upon, had no doubt that the good sense of every individual present would give all the candidates a fair and,intpartia 'hearing— (Cheers )—that they might listen and !snow who they ought to return to Parliament as their representatives. The gentlemen also on his right and left, who would have to address the meeting, would no doubt avoid every thing approaching to personalities, and thereby avoid all causes of offence. Under such circumstances he had no doubt that all present would support him in maintaining gond order. Mr. HARMER came forward to put in nomination Mr Briscoe.—(Loud cheers.) Although he had, on various occasions, taken a somewhat prominent part at the meet ings that had been held among them to promote the pro gress of the Reform Bill, he little anticipated having thus to come forward on the present occasion. Owing, however, to the unavoidable absence of a gentleman of high political preferment, he had suddenly been called upon to put his Honourable Friend in nomination. In capable as he was of discharging the duty in a proper manner, he felt the highest persuasion that the merits of the candidate would entitle him to the support of all.—(Cheers.) Mr. Briscoe's past conduct was the best pledgge that could be given for his future exertions to promote, not only the welfare and happiness of this county, but of the country at laree.—(Cheers.) He would compare the state of the country to the condition of a person who had allowed some insidious disease to creep into his system, until at length, becoming alarmed he called in a physician, who pronounced his case to be (!angerous, but not without hope. In the present case the patient was the country, the disease the abuses that had crept into the constitution, the physician the Reform Bill, and the application of the temedies the working of the Bill.—( Loud c .eers.) The physician wouldlindoubtedly, say that rash and violent means ought not to be resorted to, otherwise the patient would sink ; but if gentle, mode rate, and skilful means were resorted to, the disease would be gradually removed, and the patient restored to health and vigour.—(Loud cheers.) Looking back to what had passed since 1830, when this county was threatened with the loss of its political independence, Mr. Briscoe's most en lightened, straight-forward, and manly conduct would prove that he was one of the fittest men that could be re turned to Parliament. He hoped that Mr. Briscoe would receive universal support. Mr. BLEADEN, in seconding the motion, said that he little expected, 10 minutes ago, to have the distinguished honour of seconding the nomination which his Honourable Friend had proposed. In his opinion there never was a candidate who wanted so little eulogiutn as his Honourable Friend, who had been proposed by Mr. Harmer for re election. The contest was not, he felt convinced, with him, but it was between those who had as yet been un tried.—(Cheers, and crier of " Beauclerk ! Beauclerk !") So saisfied was he of the pat conduct of the Honourable Gentleman, the long-tried friend of the county, that he was sure he would be re-elected.—(Cheers.) He had left no pledges broken, he had made no promises that he had not fulfilled—(Cheers)—and his past conduct was an earnest of what his future would be.—(Cheers.) From all be knew of Mr. Briscoe, he was convinced that he s'ood before the electors unconnected with any other candidate—(Cheers)—that he only sought the suffrages of the electors for himself, and had pledged himself that his future conduct should be as his past had been—(Cheers) —an unflinching enemy to all abuses, and would exert himself to his utmost to fulfil the task, if the electors should think fit to return him to Parliament.—(Cheers and cries of "We will.") If they did re-elect him, he (Mr. B. ) felt confident, when the time arrived when he should return the suffrages into their hands he would stand before them as he did now.----(Cheers.) He would come out of the House of Commons as he went in, unshackled, regardless of power or place—(Cheers) —or any thing but the due execution of his duty—(Cheers) —considering his highest reward to be the approbation of the electors.—(Cheers.) He (Mr. B.) trusted the time had arrived when the middle ranks of life should be the individuals who should give a tone to the country. He honoured the higher ranks of the country, but he loved his compeers—(Cheers) ----and those who had surrounded him had expressed, in the highest terms, their approbation of his Ho nourable Friend.—(Loud and continued cheering.) He trusted that the electors would so exercise their franchise to-day as clearly to show that a more extensive franchise might be safely given them.—(Loud cheers.) Though he was altering the institutions of the country gradually, he thought a further extension of the faanchise was men __ nary.—(Cheers.) Nu one could doubt that the person who in private life was careful of his means (and Mr. Briscoe was that man), was likely in public life to guard the nation's treasure, with the same degree of prudence as he guarded his own.—(Cheers.) As he had before said, Dlr. Briscoe, against whom the voice of calumny had never breathed, was such a man, and he trusted the electors would do themselves honour by placing him high upon the poll.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. RANKIN came forward to propose as a candidate for the representation of the Eastern Division of the county, Thomas Jeffreys Allen, Esq.—(Laughter.) The HIGH SHERIFF entreated silence for the speaker. Mr. RANKIN said the subject for their consideration was, the fitness of the several candidates.—(Cries of " Speak out.") The Hon. Gentleman endeavoured to speak a little louder, but he could scarcely be heard by even those near him. The electors were aware that Mr. Allen had for some time offered himself to their notice— (Loud hisses and groans)—and to the address of that gen tleman he referred them for the declaration of his political principles—(What are they ?)—those principles were there fully stated ; but if the electors were not satisfied, Mr. Allen was present to answer any questions that might be pr opose d to him. He (Mr. Rankin) would advert to what h e b e li eved were Mr. Alen's qualifications. First, Mr. All en h ad been a constant resident in this division of the co unty for 10 or It years.—(" He is a pauper," " He i s a D ulwich pauper, " loud laughter.) During the greater p art of that period Mr. Allen was well known as an active and intelligent man—he was a man of ancient f amily, and of independent fortune—(" No, he is de pendent," " I t i s a m i stake, " " N o paupers ") -- h e was equally i n d ependent in principle—( " C ut i t s h ort, " and laughter) —and he was a gentleman of liberal education, now iu the prime of life.—(Loud laughter.) He con cluded by proposing that gentleman as their repreienta tive.—(Hisses and cheers.) Mr. GowER rose to second the nomination, but in a much lower tone than Mr. Rankin. He was convinced that by re turning Mr. Allen they would return an independent man.— (Great uproar.) The Hirai SIERIFF, who had several times entreated a site hearing for all the Speakers, but in Saul, here exclaimed that he was sorry the Chair had fallen so low in their esteem.— (Cheers.) Mr. GOWER said it was the first time that ever he addressed a meeting.--(" It ought to be the last.") He concluded by re questing the attendance of the electors at the poll on Monday and Wednesday next.—(" That is quite enough." " You are worse than the others." Laughter.) SAMUEL PALMER, Esq., came forward to nominate Major Beauclerk, but the noise occasioned by cheering and hissing prevented his proceeding. The HIGH SHERIFF declared that ifsilence were not preserved he should be obliged to dissolve the Court. MR. PALMER, then proceeded. lie declared that he was anxious to follow the advice of the high Sheriff, and not to use language towards others which might create unplea sant and irritated feelings. He felt bound to pay a debt of gratitude to the hon. gent. who had been first proposed, for the independence of his conduct in parliament.—(cheers). He (Mr. Palmer) supported : Major Beauclerk, because he approved of the principles which he had put forward to the county—(cheers). One gentleman, in his address, had com pared the distresses of the country to a diseased patient, and had recommended the calling in a skilful physician ; he (Mr. P.) recommended the Major, as that skilful physician. Ile was perfectly aware that reports had been circulated to the prejudice of Major Beauclerk's political character ; he had been accused of being a leveller, and not fit to be intrusted with the suffrages of the electors. If the Re form Bill were i❑ proper operation, the property of every an in the kingdom would be safer than it had ever be fore been.—(Cheers.) He could go on much longer, but is he conceived the Candidates should express their own sentiments, he would conclude by nominating Aubrey W. I3eauclerk, Esq., as one of their Representatives. Mr. FIFE seconded the Major's nomination. The manner in which the electors had received Mr. Briscoe elowed that the calumnies which had been circulated that they were not fit to have the elective franchise, were most unfounded, and be hoped the franchise would soon he yet greatly extended.—(Cheers.) Mr. FARMER had the honour to appear to put in nomination Mr. Lawson. Mr. Lawson had only come forward last night as a candidate, in consequence of the powerful requisition that had been presented to him, after it was known that the illness of Mr. Alderman Venables had occasioned him to with. draw. He possessed very considerable landed property in the county—he had also been engaged in mercan tile affairs all his lifetime—he was a Whig —not a Radical, but a moderate Reformer. (Cheers.) He was a staunch enemy to a continuance of Slavery, and would do all he could to ob tain the necessary acts of reformation in Church and State. The speaker read a letter from the Candidate to the above effect. Mr. F. EADE seconded the nomination. Mr. Lawson was a gentleman who had made his fortune in commerce, and he therefore well knew the wants of other, and he submitted that Mr. L. was a most fit person to represent the electors in Parlia ment. The HIGH SHERIFF then inquired if there was any other gentleman who had any other candidate to propose. Mr. R, G. THOMAS assured the meeting that he had left Alderman Venables' bedside this day, and it was only through illness he had declined the contest- Mr. WOOLLERTON confirmed this statement. The HIGH SHERIFF then requested the electors to hear. Mr. BRISCOE, the candidate, was loudly cheered, and said, accept, Gentlemen, my warmest thanks for this atost cordial and gratifying reception. I highly value these expressions of applause, because they proceed from the friends of liberty and of order, who love their coun ,ry and honour me with their approbation, because they believe that I participate in the same feelings. Gentle men, the day is arrived for you to nominate your tepre sentatives in the ensuing Parliament—to exercise one of the most important privileges of Englishmen —to exercis: that right from which you derive every other right most dear to you as the citizens of a free State. It becomes you, therefore, to exercise your free and undoubted pri vilege wisely and well, for on the decision of the electors throughout the United Kingdom, depends, under Divine Providence, the political salvation of our country. Gen tlemen, I at ind before you as one who was lately your representative, to render you an account of the manner in which I have fulfilled the solemn trust that you have twice reposed in me ; and though I feel that I am not addressing myself to strangers, hut to friends— for we have striven together before now, and has k as often triumphed aide by side in the hal lord field of freedom and independence. Yet I would fain receive an answer to this question. During the time von have entrusted the with power to plead your case in Parliament, have I wronged the electors of Surrey either by voice or vote? Have I neglected the work or sacri ficed the cause of any of my constituents ? Have I, in short, failed to perform the promises I gave, and to act up ro the professions of service which I made you upon the hustings? If I have, pass sentence on me; I stand at the bat of my countrymen, and I will cheerfully abide by your ver dict. But if I ant honourably acquitted at youthands, and if your heart acquits me of all intentional error or omis sion, while I only feel regret that I am not possessed of greater ability to serve you, I will at once proceed, espe. cially as I speak to many whom I may congratulate as new electors, briefly to recapitulate the circumstances of our past and present connection, and to state the principles which have guided nie hitherto, and, I trust, will ever govern nay public course of conduct. 1 have lived almost exclusively amongst you front the day which gave m e a tattled habitation and a home," and allied me so inti mately to the descendant of your old and popular represen tative, who still lives in the recollection of some amongst you as having been thrice returned as a Mem ber of the county, and twice previously for the borough of Sonthwark ; for I have lately bad freuent opportuni , ies of hearing the name of Matvbey coupled by the men of Surrey with the cause of freedom and independence. I have had ample means of appreciating the worth and intel ligence of Surrey, and you have possessed similar facilities in this important county in reference to my character arid conducts I first enlisted with you under the banner of inde pendence in the contest of 1826, in which the freeholders ob_ tained an ever memorable triumph. In 18;30 our friends at Kingston, with whom I was acquainted almost from my birth, summoned me to plant the standard of party independence in the hard won field of victory, and the following Spring we again unfurled our triumphant colours, without even a shadow of opposition. I now present myself, for a third time, as a candidate for your suffrages—and, before you adjudge the worth of the respective candidates, I will very shortly declare, for I must not forget the season of the year, or the fair claims of other candidates—my sentiments on a few of the many subjects which must soon engage the attention of our future representatives. In reference to the great question of Par liamentary Reform—for which we owe so large a debt of gra titude to his Mrjesty's present administration—l will candidly own that I wish the working of the Bill to have a fair trial, and to look to the fruits which I sincerely think in many respects it is well calculated to afford. (Hear, hear.) I wish, therefore, to turn my earliest attention to tho,e many questions of a more immediate and practical bear ing, which regard the employment of the capital and in.- dustry of the labourer—to increase the facilities of our do mestic trade, and to extend the scale of our foreign emn merce—to attempt, by every possible means, to reduce the public burthens by retrenching the expenditure. always keeping in mind the duty of not viol sting out faith with the public creditor—to remove all unjust In equality in the various branches of taxation, and those which pressed on the middle and industrious branches of the community. In short, to do all that wisdom, firm ness, and integrity, can effect, in order to still further de. velope the resources of the country—to brace the strength, and revive the drooping spirit of industry, by affording profitable occupation to the great mass of the population. There are, however, two points connected with a re• form in our representation, in which the public mind ex periences a deep interest at the present moment—the re peal of the Septennial Act and the Vote by Ballot. The return to triennial Parliaments was ever blended with my views of Parliatnentary Reform; and I believe it would be equally beneficial to the electors and the elected, — to the representative and his constitu en t s . I w id t to return to the old practice of the Constitution, triennial Parliaments. In reference to the vote by:ballot, I cannot express as de cided an opinion. As I wish the full responsibility in curred by open voting in the House of Commons to rest on the head of the elected Member, so I should, indi vidually desire that Electors ought to have the responsibility of increasing a public trust, by openly voting for the members of their free choice, in the face of all around them. At the same time I :earnestly confess that if the practice of secret voting shall be proved necessary, in order to protect the inde pendence of the voter from the effects of intimidation and of corruption, I shall then give my support to this measure. The next great question which engrosses the public attention, rd the attention of His M a j es ty's Government i s th a t o f C urch Reform. But until the commission of ecclesiastical inquiry, which has long been engaged in its important labours, has made its promised returns, and until the measure expected to arise out of those returns shall be proposed by the Adminis... tration, it would be impossible for any prudent or considerate man to promise more, than that he would give the whole sub jeet his best and most candid and serious attention. Almost eyery one admits that an extensive measure of Church Reform is necessary; and I trust that such a salutary renova tion will be the means of increasing the influence of true religion in the lives and hearts of the people. On the subject of tithes, I desire a commutation without delay. I hate and abhor slavery, and shall continue to labour uncessantly for hit utter extinction in every clime. lam also an advocate. for the spread of edncation, and I shall support a system which, while it conveys sound and profitable instruction and useful knowledge, is based on the only sure and safe ground that of a scriptural foundation. Gentlemen, I could say more, but the time will only permit me to add that I am the, friend of peace at home, and non intervet.- (io n abroad. War is seldom justatide, an :t enta;:s its own punishment. IVe a•e stn. s)oart ng front the effects of former struggles, and this country requires peace for the giowth of internal prosixrity and the improvement of its institutions, and the correction of manifold almaes. This is but an itnperf ct otrline of my lentlinents conc•erninl; a few things, and if they are in unison with your own, I ask far your suffrages on that ground, the only one on which you ought to give them, or that you, as I well know will give thern—that of public principle. G. ntlemen, I solicit those suffrales front no idle ambition of distinctroti, n•or from any motives of personal or party interest. You have taught me to consider myself a servant of tt•e public, ;rid while health and strtngth are granted me, I will tot , eignedly endeavour to fulfil my duty, and render you all the service in mypower.—(Cries of " Hear, liet,r.)— Nere let the once for all distinctly assure you that I ho nestly- wish to refor m what is wrong, to redress all grievan ces, and correct all abuses. I desire to restore, not to endanger—to preserve —not to destroy the institutions of our country—and I am as anxious to protect the property of the humblest of the industrious classes who may have his deposit in a Savings Bank, or Friendly Society, as that of the richest proprietor in the land. And now in ' , inclusion allow me to express my unfeigned regret that I have been unable personally to wait on each elector. My original intention was to have abstained altogether from any personal canvass. Much domestic affliction, under pzculiar circumstances, at the time of the proroga tion of parliament, and a natural desire of obtaining a little relaxation after my previous parliamentary labours. which have been neither small nor short—and above all the conviction that my character, and conduct were known to the constituency of Surry—and that if I had been found to fail in the performance of past promises_end fre.h professions could possiblyavail—all these circumstance? induced me to prefer not canvassing. But in compliance, with the entreaty of friends—l have in some measure de sisted from this determination —and I want words to eon vey my gratitude for the cordial reception I have eves , - where experienced. It far, very far exceeds my humbly' desert—and I feel that I can scarcely fail in toy election, except it be owing to a sense of security on the part of my supporters, if they imagine I need not their energy and activity. I therefore intreat them, if any services of mit e can avail either themselves or - their country, publicly to record their votes in my behalf. Let them remember, as the strongest motive for doing so, that the influence of my vote or voice in Parliament, depends simply on the esti mation in which 1 am known to be held by the consti tuency of Surrey. I wish my voice could reach to all the electors who may reside within or without the county —but I trust they will learn, through the friendly aid of d free press, that I have thus openly expressed my sincere regret in having been unable to wait personally en each ctor, and I request them to believe that the omission on my part has proceeded from no want of due respect ter them, Their zealous suppart, thus freely and disinterestly given, adds to my debt of gratitude; and furnish me with an ad ditional stimulus, if I wanted, to increased exertion and steady perseverance to thai strictly pure and independent course of feeling, and of virtue, in which we have hitherto endeavoured to walk and in which I trust I shall ever be enabled.to trade I thank you for your pat • it, long, and orderly in dulgence which you bare bestowed o❑ Inc. I confidently ianntnit my cause into your hands, and whether it be my distinguished lot to be returned again to serve in Parlia ment, or withdrawn into the retirement of a private sta tion, the energies of my mind shall continue to be directed o your service and that of my country, and neittier time 'tor circumstances will ever tfface the recollection of that support, attachment, and esteem, which you have so often, so generally, and so unceasingly manifested on my behalf. —(immense cheering.) Mr. ALLEN was received with gaeat disapprobation, intermixed with cheers. His sentiment , (front his writings and from his communications for the last six weeks with the electors whom he bad been actively canvassing all that time) were well known, and he had every reason to be sangnioe from the kind feeling evinced towards him , n all occasions,—(Laughter, cheers, and confusion.) lie was a Reformer.—(Hear, hear.) He avowed it, because he thought gradual amendment and gradual improvement were wanted.—(Laughter, and great confusion.) He heard the name of Dulwich College, called out, and upon that he would only say that if he saw that the intentions of the Founder of that institu. li o n were not carried into effect, he would do his utmost to see that they were. He should endeavour to I , llow, to a certain extent, the line of conduct which Mr. Briscoe had laid down for himself.—(Tremendous uproar.) As the meeting seemed loath to hear him, he would not proceed further, but merely state that nothing would equal the pleasure he should feel on being elected one of the four members of the county.—(Cries of " I dare say it would be great, but we wont have you.") Major BEAucLEKK came forward to address meet ing, but such was the yelling and uproar at one part of Ihe room that be could not be beard. The High Sheriff an‘i Mr. Briscoe in vain endeavoured to obtain any thing like a hearing, and the uproar continuing io increase, with out much appearance of the Major being beard, our rc• porters left the meeting.
