AEROSTATION EXTRAORDINARY. ASCENT OF THE DUKE OF BRUNSWICK AND MR. GRAHAM. (From a Correspondent of the Times.) Yesterday afternoon His Serene Highness Duke Charles of Brunswick accompanied Mrs. Graham, in her 15th ascent, with her splendid new balloon, from the Flora Tea-gardens, Bays water, on which occasion the gardens were crowded by a highly respectable company, among whom we noticed the Marquis of Clanricarde, Lords Coventry and Charles Townsbeud, Lord and Lady Charleville, Sir James and Lady Anson, Sir William Abdy, Colonel Stanhope, Captains Currie, White, and Ogle, and several other persons of rank and fashion. The early hour of two o'clock having by the especial desire of his serene Highness been appointed for the ascent, the process of infla tion commenced as early as eight o'clock, from a four-inch pipe laid into the garden from the main of the-Imperial Gas Company, but the supply of gas not being so strong as antici pated, the ascent was delayed until near four o'clock. About half-past one o'clock, His Serene Highness arrived at the gardens, accompanied by several gentlemen of his suite and Captain Currie, when, having examined the balloon, and had the use of the safety valve, &c., explained to him by Capt. Currie and Mr. Graham, he adjourned to the Crown Tavern close by. His Serene Highness was attended by four servants in livery, carrying an extremely large cloak, a telescope, a scarlet flag,. and a large umbrella. Shortly after three o'clock. the car, which was a new one, built of cane, and lined with yellow silk, was attached to the netting, and at half-past three o'clock, everything being ready, the neck of the balloon was detached from the gas-pipe, when the stupendous machine was floated to the centre of the gardens, and the car fastened to the top of a 4arge table, round which the company had some time previoustyl - anged themselves. At twenty minutes to four o'clock Mrs. Graham stepped into the car, followed by His SOotte Highness, who at first exhibited slight symptoms of trepidation, but in a few seconds he recovered his self-posses sion, and ordered the ballast to be removed, which having been done, the balloon rose majestically amidst the cheers and waving of hats of the persons assembled, who, including the crowd on the outside of the gardens, must have amounted to upwards of 10,000 persons. Th e balloon proceeded very steadi ly in a north-easterly direction, in which It continued as long as it remained in sight, a period of not more than twenty minutes, when it entered a dense cloud which totally obscured it. When the balloon had reached the altitude of about 100 yards, the Duke, who had placed in the car the articles brought by his servants, pulled off his round hat, which he threw to his foot men on terra firma , and replaced it by an opera h a t. H e h a d also with him a splendid velvet cap, embroidered with gold. The descent was expected to take place in Essex, as Mr. Graham immediately proceed e d i n a p os t-chais e i n the direction of Walthamstow. (From another Correspondent.) His Serene Highness the Duke of Brunswick having felt great disappointment in not going up with Mr. Green at Vauxhall-gardens, expressed his desire to Mrs. Grab.= to ac company her on her next aerial voyage, which took place yes terday at the Flora Tea-gardens, Bayswater, a little before four o'clock. The ascent was announced to take place at two o'clock, but there was not sufficient gas at that hour. The balloon was not a new one, as expressed in the bills, but was nevertheless made of a beautiful rich silk of crimson and yellow. The car (a small one) was lined with yellow, and had two blue cushions. His Royal Highness came on the ground a little after three o'clock, accompanied by several elegantly dressed ladies, with whom he entered into a lively conversation. He was dressed in a chocolate coat, dark waistcoat, and light trousers, and blue silk handkerchief with gold spots. His hat was of the Quaker make. Mrs. Graham wore a blue silk cottage bonnet, and green silk pelisse. The Duke carried a red and Mrs. Graham a white and red flag. When the Duke and Mrs. Graham entered the car considerable applause took place, which his Serene Highness graciously returned. His cheeks, which appeared flushed be fore entering, partook, we thought, ta paleness before he left the Flora gardens. The balloon on its rising took a north-easterly direction, and kept in sight a considerable time, the Duke and Mrs. Graham waving their flagsaintil they were lost sight of. Several of the Duke friend's' hook hands with him at parting. It was rather singular toobserve him take up an umbrella with him. Consi dering the shortness of the notice, there was a vast number of persons collected, both in and outside the gardens. Beames's band played several delightful airs. We understood the Duke of Argyll and several of the nobility were in the gardens. The gas was laid on by Mr. Richardson, but the ground did not appear to be the best adapted for such a spectacle. *** This appears to have been rather an amusing exhibition, and to have fottnd very fit historians in our correspondents. THE LATE ASCENT OF THE DUKE OF BRUNSWICK AND MRS. GRA H A K.-.-MEL ANCHOLY ACCIDENT TO THE LATTER, AND LOSS OP BALLOON. In consequence of the announcement in the bills that Mrs. Graham would return to the Flora Gardens after her descent on Tuesday evening, a considerable number of persons re mained there until a late hour awaiting her arrival, which not having taken place at 12 o'clock, great fears were entertained for the safety of the intrepid aeronauts, which we regret to state have proved too true as far as concerns Mrs. Graham, that lady having sustained severe injuries in her descent, which took place in the neighbourhood of Brentwood, Essex, about five o'clock. Without entering into the numerous reports afloat respect ing the unfortunate accident, we proceed to give the following copy of a letter addressed by the Duke of Brunswick to Cap tam Currie (with which we have been kindly favoured by that gentleman), which contains the only authentic particulars known:— " Converse Farm, near Brentwood, " 9 o'clock p. m., Aug. 22. "My dear Captain,—Uncertain whether you have or not followed our balloon with Mr. Graham, as you intended, I address these lines to your house, containing an exact account of what has happened. " After ascending a considerable height, it appeared to me as if the balloon suddenly beca me motionless, neither ascend. ing nor descending, and on my inquiring the reason of Mrs. Graham, she replied, that when she ascended with a person who had never before been with a balloon, she did not like going too high for fear the effect would be disagreeable to them. I. an swered her, that I felt no unpleasant effect whatsoever from Ale altitude we had attained, and that I wished to get out of sight of the earth altogether. Mrs. Graham upon this threw out a considerable quantity of ballast, and we then ascended to so high a point a, completely to lose sight of terra fima; for al though I kept my telescope constantly to my eyes, I could per ceive no trace of it. I then remarked to Mrs. Graham, that the position in which we then were was much more agreeable to me than when the earth was visible, the car having the ap pearance of floating on the clouds, similar to a vessel on the sea. Mrs. Graham at that moment drew my attention to a most beautiful appearance in the clouds, which by the refraction of the sun's rays gave a perfect reflection of the balloon and the car, with ourselves, adding, that such a phenomenon was most extraordinary, and very seldom witnessed. Much to my disap pointment, we soon regained sight of tha earth, when I again expressed a desire to ascend higher ; but Mrs. Graham said she was afraid we had not sufficient ascending power to do so that day. She then discharged some ballast f rom th e sa f e t y -b ag , but rather declined to acc ede - to my request to discharge all its contents, which rendered its effects very slight, as we remained nearly in equilibrium. Mrs. Graham, at my request, then ex plained to me the management of the valve of the balloon. Shortly afterwards, I asked her if my rising on my seat to take o ff my great coat would disturb the balance of the car, but upon her assur inn me it would not, I did so, feeling it very warm. " From that moment, in my opinion, we commenced our de scent, although Mrs. Graham thought the contrary, but she was convinced of the error by paper being thrown out. At this period Mrs. Graham asked me if I did not feel considerable pain in my ears, and upon my assuring her of the contrary, she said I was possessed of very strong nerves. I, however, soon ex perienced it to a very severe degree. " The balloon at this moment commenced twirling round like a top, in its continued descent, when Mrs. Graham asked me if it was disagreeable, saying it was occasioned by our hav ing entered a different current of air. I replied that I did not much admire it, but that I felt no giddiness from it. Mrs. Graham then threw out the grapple on one side, and the safety bag on the other, the rope of which latter was so short that it kept dangling about half a yard below the car, a circumstance which appeared much to dissatify her. She then asked whe ther it would make me giddy to look down from the car and observe chat the grappling iron was doing. I immediately did so. and repli e d it h a d no e ff ec t u p on me. - She next inquired if Lremembered her informing me the balloon could be converted into a parachute, and requested me to observe it was then in thatlitate. I then saw her mount upon her seat and lay hold of thatropes which fastened the car to the balloon. She desired sue to do the same, observing we were coming down rather faster than she wished. I followed her advice, although de liberately observing that we were at so great a distance from the earth that I could not yet ciistinguish one object from ano ther, but I bad scarcely put myself in the position required when I felt the car strike with the utmost violence on the ground and overturn, the balloon itself touching the earth, and dragging us about 30 yards, until it rose again. By the violence of the shock I was thrown headforemost out of the car at the height of about 18 feet, b u t I contrived to fall upon my hands, and e scape uninjured. flaying gained my feet, I had the great grief of seeing Mrs. Graham fall from the car from a much higher distance than I had fell • and from th e a p parent l y life less manner in which she lay I was at first fearful she was killed. I immediately proceeded to" her, and found she had fallen on her head, and was quite insensible. Mr. Amor, the farmer on whose grounds we had fallen, with a number of his people, soon came to my assistance, when the unfortunate lady was conveyed to tbe- rrSidence of that gentl eman, C onvene Farm, in the Parish of Doddinghurst, near the town of Brent wood, Essex, where she still remains. I instantly desired medi cal assistance might be sent for, and she was soon attended upon by Mr. Barlow, a surgeon of the neighbourhood, whose opinion at this moment is that there is a serious concussion of the brain, and injury within t he abd ome n, but, notwithstanding h er great danger, be does not despair of her life. Since about live o'clock, When the fall took place, until now I have been staying b es i de her, and it is only within half an hour that she appears cow. mencing the recovery of her 'lenses. I wish you would inform Mr. Graham from me how distressed I am at what has happened, and should he not have heard of the accident, I must beg of you to prepare him by degrees for this sorrowful event. "The balloon, with my great-coat, hat, telescope, &c., is gone I know not where; I saw it rise to a great height after Mrs. Graham had fallen from the car. " active, my dear Captain, th e assur an ce o f m y regard, &c. " Duke of BRUNSWICK. " Ptateurrie, Cambridge-terrace." MR. GRAHAM'S STATEMENT. The balloon descended on the farm of Mr. Amor, at Dod dington, near Brentwood, in Essex, at which time it was blow ing a sharp breeze. The Duke of Brunswick immediately got out of the car with perfect safety. The loss of his weight caused the balloon to ascend suddenly, and the grappling iron tore away from the hedge, which Mrs. Graham hoped had been se cure, and, catching on the bank, caused a jerk which threw her out upon the ground from a height of several feet. This was attributable to her great anxiety respecting the duke, whom she rerelooki ng at, f ear i ng t h at t h e grappl i ng-iron would strike looking and standin g i n t h e car w i t h out ta ki ng h o l d of the lines. fain to say that no bones a re b ro k en , an d that she i s i n a fair w a way L of recovery.

' Peare NI, A t ket's re-electit , u tout: NARRATIVE OF THE LOSS OF THE SHIP EDINBURGH. The following narrative, which is copied from the Sydney Commercial Journal of the 20th April, appeared in our second edition of Tuesday last:— Toe Edinburgh was a fast sailing barque of 270 tons register, manned with a crew of twelve persons, including the captain, and had a full cargo of wool, oil, and cedar, and two male pas sengers for Liverpool. She left Sydney Roads on the morning of the 18th of March, and stood on her course, with light west erly winds. During the day of the 29th, Captain Lyall and the chief officer remarked to each other, that there seemed in the cabin a closeness in the feeling, and a smell as of something burnt. It was not, however, sufficient to create any suspicion of the cause. The remarks were reiterated in the-evening, and the conversation turned to the subject of wool igniting, and to aninstance that occurred some eleven years ago to a ship on her homewards passage, with a similar cargo to themselves. Still, however, Captain Lyall retired without the least appre hension. About three o'clock next morning, (the 30th.) the chief officer came to the bed-side of the captain, saying he was certain the ship was on fire. Captain L. sprung up. and see ing there was a great deal of smoke in the cabin, ordered the chief officer immediately to wear ship, and make all sail to the N. He then opened the largest scuttle, when the smoke rushed out with a force which almost overpowered him. He, however, got the scuttle closed down again, and called out forall hands imme diately to clear away the long-boat, and went on deck, taking up his chronometer, sextant, chart, and writing-desk. The crew soon lowered the boat, and got into her two casks of water, a quantity of biscuit, and sixteen or eighteen pieces of pork, with the captain's things beforementioned, and a compass, and also the foretop-mast stay-sail, which they had cut down to rig the boat, and a studding-sail boom, to serve for a mast. In the mean time the smoke bad so increased, that the chief-officer in vain attempted to enter the cabin to save the log-book, and bring out his watch, and some of his clothes. The heat also be came great, and the smoke burst out in volumes up the compa nion and through the cabin windows, and began to issue from the aft hatch. Before four o'clock the heat had become so in tense aft, that the man at the helm cried out, he could stand it no longer. On which Captain L. sent him forward, and lashing down the tiller„ remained there himself. The flames now be gan to appear ,above deck, and to burst from the aft hatches, and to spread with astonishing rapidity over the ship. The men were, by this time, all in the boat, and calling on the cap tain for God's sake to come away : but he, with an indescri bable feeling, kept lingering behind, loath to leave the ship. The sea was getting up, and the captain seeing the danger of the boat beating against the ship, took his place in her about five o'clock, when they shoved off. About this moment their latitude was 44. 20 5., and their longitude 163 E.—the wind S.S.E., blowing fresh, and the sea running high, the ship with foresail and foretopsail set, standing to the N. about two knots an hour. They allowed the boat to drop astern, and employed themselves in fitting the mast and rigging the sail. At seven o'clock, when three miles astern of the ship, they saw her main and mizen-masts go overboard about the-same time. Having got sail on the boat, at eight o'clock they were again up with the ship, and found that the poop and quarter-deck were burned down to the water edge, the blaze going rapidly for ward and issuing with tremendous violence from the main hatches. The wind being S.S.E., Captain L. thought it better to steer N.N.W., in the hope of fetching some port of New South Wales, and at two o'clock, when about six or eight miles a-head of the ship, they could see that her topsail was still set, and that she was surmounted by a deep cloud of smoke; after this they saw no more of her, and they now stood on their own course, intent only on saving themselves. Captain L. had hitherto found every one on board attend with the utmostalacrity to every command he issued, and he now found them calmly and implicity resigned to his every wish. He now arranged that there should be two meals a day. at half-past eight in the morn ing and half-past four in the afternoon, when they made the re lief at the helm, and that the chief officer should lay out the al lowance at each meal of one half pint of water, a biscuit, and a small slice of pork, and ordered that he should be first served, and out of fourteen portions he should have the smallest. Throughout that night and the next two days the weather was moderate, and they were able to keep their course at about three knots an hour. On the 3d day (Friday,) it rained and blew fresh, and the sea go t up; still every thing went on regularly with them, and with out a murmur,—some talking confidently of falling in with a vessel, and all eagerly bending their eyes on the horizon, in the hope of seeing a sail—a hope which the captain however, dis couraged, as he knew they were out of the tract of vessels, and wished them to place their hopes in their own exertions and speed. On Sunday 3d April, a heavy gale with rain came on from the S. E. lat. ; at 5 a.m. a tremendous sea broke over and filled the boat, and she rolled and was on the point of settling, but that Captain L's. exclamation that the next two minutes would decide their fate, urged the men to a fury of exertion, that soon lightened the boat of the water; and enabled them to congratulate themselves they were again buoyant; but the pleasure of this escape was sadly lessened when they found that the sea had washed away every ounce of their bread. They had, however, little time for reflection on this subject, for twice on the same morning their boat was again half filled by the heavy sea breaking in upon them. About noon the gale abated, and for some days they pursued theircourse N. W., without any accident, running with moderate breezes about 70 to 80 miles in the 24 hours. On Saturday, the 9th, they again had very heavy squalls and rain, and the sun sank with the most dark and threatening aspect, and every wave towered above them, menacing instant destruc tion. Still however their gallant barque rose buoyant o'er the gushing seas, and her crew sat still and resolute within her feeble frame. The next day the weather was changed, and they had light airs and calms. About nine o'clock a.m., a shark caine alongside and some of the sailors who have a natural antipathy to sharks, struck it repeatedly with an oar, in order to frighten it away, but in this they could not succeed, for it clung to the boat with the most invincible obstinacy ; on seeing this the captain directed them to endeavour to catch it by throwing a rope with a running noose over it, which they immediately did, and captured him with an ease that 'surprised them. They dared not, however, take him into the boat, but cut him up as he hung outside, and took him in piecemeal. It then af forded a luxurious feast; for, after living ten days on salt pork, it was a most salutary and refreshing kind of diet. They all declared they had seen many sharks killed, but never saw one of half the size caught half so unresistingly, and in it they re cognized the intervention of the invisible - hand of Providence, and felt that, though far and seemingly left to destruction on a dreary ocean, they were not deserted by a Divine Providence. At midday they were favoured by a good observation, and found Sydney Heads bearing W.S.W., distant 150 miles, with light airs from the N.E., and boat going W.S.W. three and a half knots the hour. At noon next day the welcome cry was made of a sail in sight, and all hands were fixed on a sail to wind ward, which appeared to be a schooner, laying a course as if bound to New Zealand. All now was hope, anxiety, and bus tle, and a red shirt was tied to the top of the mast, and the schooner's movements were watched with painful trepidation. But, alas! the schooner saw them not; she kept her onward course, and left them to plod their weary way. At nine o'clock on the morning of Tuesday, the llth, they descried the land about Botany, and with the wind at N. they stood for it. Next day at dawn they attempted to pull, but the captain ordered them to desist, as he saw they had not strength, and it created in the men a thirst for water, which could not be afforded them. However, about seven in the morning they saw a cut ter to the northwest, and instantly bore away for her, and about 8 came alongside the Venus, of Sydney, from Woolon gong to Sydney, who readily supplied them with a bucket of bread, and advised them to run for Woolongong, which they immediately did, and about half-past ten o'clock on Wednes day, the 13th instant, they happily landed at that place, having been fourteen days and ten hours in the open boat. dr. Gray, the police magistrate of the district, received them in the most benevolent manner. He conducted Captain L. and the chief officer to his own residence, and put the crew and passengers into comfortable lodgings, and supplied them with clothes and anything they wanted. The inhabitants imitated this good ex ample—opened their houses to them, and pressed their hospi tality on them. We cannot refrain from particularising that of Mr. Geo. Brown, who evinced much anxious kindness to them. This‘gentleman at once nominated the chief officer to the com mand of a small vessel of his, with the firm promise of speedy promotion to a better. On Saturday, the 15th, Captain L., and most of the crew embarked in the cutter Thomas, and reached Sydney on Sunday. Captain Towns, of the Brothers, who happened to be an old friend of Captain Lyall, and was on the point of sailing for London, immediately saw Captain Lyall, ' and with a gentlemanly frankness and brotherly kindness, that reflects the highest honour on him, insisting on his of his com p an y t o E ng l an d , i n a manner t h at de partaking riled refusal, and although not in want of hands, offered to take all those of the Edinburgh at wages. Such acts are rare, and well merit record. We cannot close our narrative without expressing our admiratio n of the cool and sterling intrepidity, and the calm and imperturbed judgment exhibited by Captain L. tgroughout the awful moment of conflagration, and the days and nights of protracted privation ; neither can we withhold onr praise of manly patience, seamanlike perseverance, and quiet obedience of the gallant crew. On investigation we find there can be no doubt that tae ca lamity arose from the ignition of the wool. The oil was all stowed in the fore part of the ship, there being on ly one t i er a ft the foremast and in contact with it, and nowhere was there wool within a foot of an oil cask. Aft the oil there was cedar in the bottom of the ship, and wood on the top of it. The fire must have originated between the main and mizen masts, for the smoke was first thrown back upon the cabin, and the main and mizen masts both went overboard at the same time. We hear that it is thought to have arisen from some bales of wool that had not been repacked at Sydney, and had been stowed in that very part which all things corroborate to prove must be the very part, whence the fire came. If this be the case, it must be an awful warning of the necessity that every bale of wool should be repacked in Sydney, in order to prevent the possibility of its being shipped moist. DISPERSION OF THE KING'S LIBRARY. On Saturday the choice cabinet collection, the property of his Majesty, was knocked off in the great room at Westminster. Among the more remarkable lots we noticed the following:- 1. " The Modern Platonist ; or, a Prentio's Sports and Pas times." A work of the old school. Bound in Lambskin, and tooled all over.—N.B. This lot wouldn't be sold! 2. " The Bedford Missile." Would have been a smart duo decimo volume, but has been spoiled by having the O'Connell arms rudely stamped on the back and sides. Has been cruelly bound; the back is almost broken in consequence. 3. " Who steers the Ship of Fools ?" By an Irish Rebel. This is a very vulgar seditious work, and the present a dirty copy. It is thought wonderful that it has not oeen long ago placed in the hands of the celebrated binder iu the Old Bailey. Is uncut!!! 4. " The Vassal!; or, Sharp as a Fox." Rather a bulky folio, and evidently a work of gout. Unbound, however. 5. "Pepy, on Wool.' A dull work. Calf-extra. (Bought by a Cottenham cheesemon ger .) 6. "Superficies, considered w i t h re f erence to Knowledge. " By one of the Surface family. A dog-eared duodecimo, treating superficially of finance; bound by Herring. 7. " The Tale of the Sloth." By a Scotchman. Gapes terri bly. and wants beating. S. "Abercrombie on Chairs." Considering its bulk, a wonder fully insipid production. It is thoroughly bound, but would be the - better for beating. The rats play the d—l with it every night. 9. " The Humours of Middlesex." A cropped quarto; bound in pigskin. Shuts close, but has been damaged by a worm. We had not time to examine any more of the books. Our sole motive for noticing a few on the present occasion is be cause it is confidently believed that this is the last time a simi lar assortment will be ever offered to the public. CUIIIOVS CAUSE OF DEATIL- z —A gentleman in South Caro lina was about to undergo a very painful surgical operation. He had imbibed the idea that it was beneath the dignity of a man ever to say or do anything expressive of pain. He, there fore, refused to submit to the usual precaution of securing the hands and feet by bandages, declaring to his surgeon that he had nothing to fear from his being untied, for he would not move a muscle of his body. He kept his word, it is true; but he died instantly after the operation from apoplexy. There is very lit tle doubt. in the mind of any physiologist, in regard to the cause of ap o pl exy i n t hi s case, and th at it might have been prevented by the relief which is always afforded by groans and tears.- Dr. Al/ oil. THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. WARWICK ELECTION. Warwick, Monday, August 22. The nomination of candidates for the representation of the borough of Warwick, in the room of Sir Charles Greville, who has resigned on account of ill-health, took place in the County hall of that borough today. The candidates, as we have already announced, were the Hon. Charles John Canning (son of the late Right Hon. George Canning,) in the conservative interest; and Jr. W. H. Ilobliouse (the brother of the Right Hon. the President of the Board of Control,) in the whig radical interest. The election was looked to with great interest in the borough, inasmuch as it was the first election since the election of the new corporation, and as it was imagined by that body that they would, by their influence, be at once enabled to defeat the conservatives. At an early hour the town presented the usual appearance antecedent to an election, and party spirit runs very high here. The nomination was appointed to take place in the County hall, at eleven o'clock, and at that hour the mayor and the candidates and their supporters took their places on the hustings. The usual formalities having been gone through, the mayor called upon the electors to nominate any candidates they might have to propose. Mr. H C. Wise was received with mingled shouts of applause and disapprobation. Mr. Mayor and Gentlemeu,—ln rising on the pres,ent occasion to propose to you a candidate to supply the vacancy in the representation of the borough, I am sure that most, if not all, of those whom I have the honour of addressing, will unfeignedly lament with me the cause which has led to this event. (Cheers.) Our late representative, Sir Charles Greville, has been obliged from the bad state of his health to resign into your hands that trust which had been so long confided in him. Gentlemen, how zealously and how assiduously the high and important duties attendant on that trust were discharged' by him, the long experience of I believe nearly twenty years must be the best answer. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, Sir Charles Greville has been long and intimately connected with this borough, both personally and politically, and I believe that no one was ever more esteemed or beloved by his supporters,, and respected by those from whom he had the m isfo r tune to differ politically, than that hon. individual. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, under these circumstances it is, I know, not a very easy task to propose for your suffrages, a gentleman who has hitherto been but little known to you in connexion with this borough. But that difficulty is in some little degree removed when it is con sidered that the hon. gentleman brought forward in opposition to the candidate I shall have the honour to propose is also an entire stranger to the borough of Warwick. (Cheers.) So far, at least, they are uyon an equal footing: But, gentlemen, the name of Canning 'is not so strange and unfamiliar even to the borough of Warwick (loud cheers,) and one can hardly men tion' it without associating in some degree the person of the son with the brilliant and transcendent abilities of his-distinguished and incomparable fattier. (Loud cheers.) Gentlemen, it is not upon these grounds that I_would offer the gentleman I am about to propose to your notice ; but it is, that being a gentleman of high respectability and integrity, as also being a gentleman of great talent and distinguished attainments in one of our univer sities, and a gentleman professing and maintaining those prin ciples which in my conscience I firmly believe are the most conducive to the real interests of this g reat nation. (Cheer s .) He was willing to reform defects where defects where proved to exist ; but was a decided enemy to revolution and anarchy, and he is one who will maintain inviolate the venerable institutions of this country, both in church and state, to the best of his ability. (Cheers and hisses.) Gentlemen, it is upon these grounds that I have the honour of proposing to you the Hon. Charles John Canning as a fit and proper person to represent this borough in parliament. ( Loud cheers and groans.) Mr. E. Greaves briefly, but inaudibly, seconded Mr. Can ning's nomination. _ _ Mr. J. Tomes (formerly one of the members for the borough) presented himself for the purpose of nominating Mr. Hobhouse, but the confusion occasioned by the contending parties in the hall rendered it extremely difficult to hear the speaker. We understood him to speak to the following effect:—Gentlemen and brother electors, I assure you I will not detain you long, because it is quite unnecessary that I should say much after the able and honourable declaration of his political sentiments made by the gentleman I am about to propose as your repre sentative in parliament. He has told you that he comes amongst you as a stranger, but he has also told you the princi ples upon which he presents himself to your notice—principles which I trust every man in the country will soon and cheer fully adopt. I wish, gentlemen, my health would permit me to address you more adequately on the present occasion, but the gentleman I am about to propose to you, although not connect ed with this county or borough, is by name and character con nected and identified with the people of England at large, (cheers,) and I have no doubt whatever he will shortly be more intimately connected with you in particular. (Great uproar, in the midst of which the mayor interfered to obtain attention to the speaker.) 1 am confiaent it is unnecessary for me to state to you the opinions of the hon. candidate with whose name I shall conclude, as you will have an opportunity of cool ly considering the principles of the two gentlemen who appear before you to solicit your suffrages. I beg of you, h owever , t o bear in mind that professions are nothing and that actions are everything in the present times. lam quite sure the gentle man I am about to propose, and you are prepared to elect, will do everything in his power for the benefit of this place, and of the country at large. (Cheers.) I beg leave, therefore, to propose Mr. Henry William Hobhouse as a fit and proper per son to represent this borough in parliament. (Loud cheers.) Dr. Conolly was received with cheers and groans. He had great pleasure in seconding the proposition which had been made to them by their most respected friend Mr. Tomes; and be only regretted that an opportunity had not been offered them of listening to the observations of that gentleman. He did not, however, wonder at the anxiety shown not to hear Mr. Tomes's sentiments. Thei e was one cause which was supported by words and reason, and one which was supported by noise and brute force; and be contended that theirs was the cause which did not fear to hear reason, and which would he ashamed to have recourse to noise and brute force. (Cheers.) He huped to see the day arrive, and he thought it was fast approach ing, when Englishmen would meet upon inch occasions as the present and conduct themselves as a great people in the dis charge of a very important function—as became a people fond of liberty, and determined to maintain it. If opportunity had been afforded, he should have been glad to declare his reasons for being of the party of thepeople against the party of mere power. (Cheers.) He would have been glad to explain to them, look ing at Mr. Hobhouse's address, the particular points in it which left no course to the friends of the people than to support that gentleman. (Cheers.) He (Dr. Conolly) should have been proud to explain to them those points, because they were senti ments which would have been responded to by every firm and English heart. (Cheers.) But he saw that this was no tune to enter upon such points. He saw this was a contest between the supporters of freedom oti,the one hand, and of mere power on the other—between a patty en the one hand most anxious to improve the condition of the people, to render them more free, prosperous, and independent, and a party on the other deter mined to support pensions and all those things which pressed so heavily on the people. After a few other observations of a similar loose and general character , the doctor concluded by seconding the nomination of Mr. Hobhouse. (Cheers and groans.) No other candidate being proposed, the Mayor called upon the electors to give an impartial hearing to the two gentlemen nominated. Mr. Canning, after order had been in some degree restored, spoke to the following effect:—Gentlemen, I hope you will follow the fair and impartial advice which has been so gene rously offered to you by the mayor, and give to us all the ad vantage of an attentive hearing. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, this contest I conceive to be one of principle, and not of persons, and therefore I entered into it without feelings of acrimony or hostility, and I trust that the gentlemen opposed to me have done the same. (Cheers.) Acrimony can add no triumph to the victors, and it will bring no consolation to the vanquished. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I am well aware that some people here present do not consider this a contest merely of principle—l am aware that most of you have heard that my hon. opponent, when he first entered the town, expressed his satisfaction that he was coming among you to rescue the borough from the tyranny of the Castle—(cheers)—l am aware that I have been taunted with being the nominee of the Castle. (Cheers, and cries of " You are.") Gentlemen, let me tell you, that if any man, by using the term nominee, means that the lord of this or of a hundred castles has the power to force upon the electors of this borough a representative of whom they do not approve, the charge is an insult to you, and not to me. (Loud cheers.) But, gentlemen, if by nominee it is only meant that I, from my coincidence in principles with your late represen tative—with a man who so long and so diligently served you — who gained the honour of your services by the principles which he professed, and which I now advocate, and who brought to that service all those good qualities which can adorn the soldier and the man—an ardent zeal, high integrity, and an unremit ting energy to this hour (cheers)—if, I - repeat, owing to my coincidence in principles with Sir Charles Greville, I have the fortune to succeed in carrying with me, in this contest, the sup port and good wishes of his family, his friends, and his late constituents, and if for that reason I am called a nominee, not only do I not deny, but I glory in the name. (Loud cheers and groans.) Gentlemen, the hon. individual who seconded the nomination of my hon. opponent touched upon that gentleman's address to the electors of Warwick. Now perhaps my hon. opponent, in connection with thi s su bj ect, w il l al l ow me to ask him one question. I believe he arrived in this town on Wed nesday morning last—his address was not published until Thur sday night. With all due deference to my opponent's elec tioneering experience—in which be has much the advantage of myself (loud laughter and cheers)—l say, gentlemen, with ad deference to him, I would ask him if that was the usual course? Was it sanctioned at Finsbury—was it observed at Bath ? (Laughter and cheers.) Gentlemen, I conceive that one and all of you would have considered it more fair and open in my hon. opponent -if he had manfully declared his own opinions before ho had carefully ascertained yours. (Laughter and cheers.) Gentlemen, I think indeed that even I may be allowed to cons- plain of that delay, for I confess that up to Thursday I had no knowledge whatever of the political principles professed by the gentleman by whom I am now opposed. True it is that an advertisement was most irlustriously circulated by that gentle man's present friends and supporters, stating that they were prepared to bring forward for your favours " a gentleman of acknowledged liberal sentiments and intimately connected with the county." Now, gentlemen, how was I to know but what the first part of the definition here given might be as fallacious as the last? (Cheers.) True it is my hon. opponent is not connected with the county, and I could not, therefore, take it for gospel that he entertained " liberal opinions." (Cheers.) Now, however, gentlemen that that address is published, there is one point in it which I confess has much surprised me. (A voice—" Give us your opinion.") My opinion upon the Poor I Law bill 1 am about to state to you. Gentlemen, I did not ex pect from a person who so firmly coincides with the views of the present government such a sweeping condemnation of their pet bantling. (Cheers.) In fact, when I found how closely the opiniou of my hon. opponent coincided with those of a great portion of the party who allow the present ministers the benefit of their support, I could scarcely believe my eyes at reading his paragraph on the subject of the poor laws. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I honour him for it, and trust that if ever he should have the good luck to find himself seated in the House of Commons, with Lord John Rus sell on his right hand, and Mr. Spring Rice on his left, with his brother, Sir J. Cam Hobhouse, to hack him up, iie may never find occasion to repent or wish to retract the verdict he has ' given on that bill. (Cheers.) My own opinions on that hill • are these—l think it cruel, and doubly cruel, because I think it unnecessary, that power should be given to any number of men to separate a husband from his wife, and the parent from his children. (Groans for the bill.) I think it a hard case, gentle men. (Great uproar from the supporters of Mr. Hobhouse, who were evidently determined that M r. Canning. should not be heard upon this subject ) Well, gentlemen, I wish you joy of your poor law bill, and I would gladly see that and other clauses ;mended. On every other subject the addresses of myself and my hon. opponent are so totally different, that there is no com paring them. I tell you, gentlemen, I am essentially a conser vative. My principles, indeed, yon know. They are, as I have before now stated to you, admiration of our constitution, a con sciousness of the danger which threatens it, both from Mternal ' and external foes, and a firm determination to do my utmost to defend it. (Cheers.) Further, let me add, that I reverence my church, am loyal to my King, and the faithful friend, but not the servile flatterer, of you. (Cheers.) I will say no more, furtherpian that I am ready to explain my views and opinions on any subject upon which any of you may wish for informa tion. and I cent hide by begging of my friends to extend the same courtesy to my hon. opponent which has been generously given to me—a patient heating. (Loud cheering.) Mr. Hobhouse next came forward to address the meeting, amidst cheers and disapprobation. He said that as the cause for which they had assembled was their own cause, and not his, or that of his - honourable opponent, he would entreat them for their own sakes to give him a patient heating. His honourable opponent had told them that the present contest was one not of persons but of principlQ. He perfectly coincided with him; he however thought that his speech was a direct contrast to the statement he set out with. As far as he could collect from his opponent's speech, he had not told them his opinion upon any of the public measures. He should like to have heard him state his opinion to them on the subject of the ballot. Instead of that, however, or of giving his opinion on other. public mat ters, he confined himself to telling them in his address his ob jection to him (Mr. Hobhouse.) - His hon. opponent had asked him a direct question. He would give him a direct answer. He was a stranger to the borough, and had been invited by the reformers to come forward as a candidate. He at once accept ed the invitation; but he was determined not to go to the poll till he had ascertained whether the principles he professed were in accordance with those of the majority of the electors. This he had satisfactorily ascertained, and should go to the poll with every confidence of a successful termination of the contest. Upon the subject of the poor laws, he should like to ask his hon. opponent whether he (Mr. Hobhouse) could in any man ner be a party to that act ? He disapproved of many of its pro visions. He would, however, point their attention to one single fact. The gentleman who proposed Mr. Canning was chairman of a board appointed by it. (Loud cheers) He again repeated, that if, upon examination of all its provi sions, he saw any that were injurious or oppressive to the poor, he should be equally anxious to annul them and stand by the cause, of the people as his opponent. (Cheers.) He repeated he had come there at their bidding and at their wish to assert and vindicate the principles of freedom, and to give them an opportunity of returning the man of• their choice, and prevent any unconstitutional interference with the freedom of election. He would ask them whether it was ever possible for this country to be again governed und er t or y or conserv ati ve prin c ipl es ? The spirit of the age was such, that he was certain this country would • never return to toryism. In looking back, even to the beginning of the American war, every single point had been abandoned by th e t or i es. Th ey h a d i n 1828 yielded up a point upon which, for many years previous, they had taken their stand. He alluded to catholic emancipation. They had re sisted the repeal of the test and corporation act as long as it was possible for them to do so. If they forced the present go vernment to retire from office, they might rest assured that the next government would be decidedly liberal. (Cheers.) He felt that he had exhausted their patience. He should, therefore, in conclusion, only assure them that he should ever be found, at all times and all seasons, in or out of parliament, advocating the principles of his address. One word more. He had found it impossible for the whole of the electors to give their suffrages freely; but be must say he never asked, or would receive, a vote - from any elector who did not give it freely, unbought, un biassed by undue influence or intimidation. tie requested that his friends would come early to the poll in the morning, and he told the independent electors of Warwick that the victory was their own. (Cheers.) The Mayor having asked, and there being no other candidate to propose, then put the show of hands, which he declared to be in favour of Mr. Hobhouse. A poll was demanded on behalf of Mr. Canning, which is appointed to take place to-morrow morn ing, at eight o'clock. A vote of thanks having been given to the Mayor, that gen tleman returned thanks, and the meeting was adjourned. The candidates subsequently addressed their respective friends from the windows of their hotels. WARWICK, TUESDAY NIGHT, AUG. 23. The election has terminated as I anticipated yesterday, in the return of Mr. Canning. At an early hour this morning all parties were on the alert, and the election throughout the day has been conducted with great vigour. At two o'clock the state of the poll was— For Mr. Canning For Mr. Hubhouse Majority for Mr. Canning . 34 At the final close of the poll the numbers were— For Mr. Canning For Mr. Hobhouse 434 Majority for Mr. Canning. 3O The poll was declared in the Shire-hall oy the Mayor, and after the usual formalities connected with signing the return, Mr. Canning addressed the electors. The hon. gentleman congratulated the electors of the borough upon the victory they had achieved, and offered them his most sincere, and he might be allowed to add, his enthusiastic thanks, for the honour they had conferred upon him. It was his first step into public life, and to the very end of his existence he would remember, with pride and gratification, the triumph of the principles he had come forward to advocate; and, he most sincerely trusted, if they ever found him desert those principles they would condemn him. (Cheers.) He (Mr. Canning) could assure them that this triumph of the principles which he had on this occasion es poused would ever be the Polar star which would direct the course of his future public life. (Cheers.) He disclaimed all party conuexion—he had no friends in the cabinet—he had no con nexion in parliament, and although he appeared before them perhaps as a youth,—he was still a fre e and independent man. (Cheers.) He hoped he should gradually cease to be a youth; but he would never cease to be free and independent. (Cheers,) He had nothing more to observe than that he hoped if they dis approved of his conduct in parliament they would speak out, and that on future occasions they would not have reason to ac cuse him of any dereliction of duty. (Cheers.) Mr. Hobhouse, evidently chagrined by . defeat addressed the assembly amidst much confusion, and intimated his intention of coming forward when an opportunity occurred. Mr. Canning and his friends then paraded the principal streets of the town, and were loudly cheered during their progress. VACANCY IN THE REPRESENTATION OF EAST CUMBERLAND. On Friday the House of Commons ordered a new writ for the eastern division of the county of Cumberland, in the room of Mr. William Blamire, appointed Chief Tithe Commissioner. Captain Buller and Mr. Jones, the Professor of Political Economy in King's College, are the two Junior Commis sioners. (FROM THE CARLISLE PATRIOT.) Many months have now elapsed since a report became cur rent that Mr. Blamire, one of the members for the eastern divi sion of Cumberland, was devoting all his time and talents to ob tain a knowledge of the tithe question, in order that he might qualify himself for that very snug tbing—a commissionership. lint no sooner was the whisper breathed forth to the public air, than up rose a tempestuous contradiction from Mr. Blamire's adherents. He accept a place, indeed; He become a pensioner! No, no, lago was "too honest" for that. We had our doubts, knowing how frail is the material of which such public charac ters are composed, and all we could say was in the language of the Turk, " Bashmallah !"—we shall see. Mr. Blamire, mean time, pursued his studies, talked about tithes, read about tithes, dreamed about tithes, made speeches about tithes : in fact he seemed to live upon tithes. He was literally the man with one idea. At length came the end of all his labours—the tithe bill passed both houses, and became the law of the land. Now, thought we, for the touchstone; let us see what all this h as b een about. And sure enough the patriotic member doffed his dis guise in a moment, and by the juggle of a minister becomes— presto —a tithe commissioner, aye, and that too the very first, Not a moment was lost. Alas, for profession ; here is practice ! Mr. Blamire fished for a commissionership, and he hooked his _ _ A meeting of the whig-radicals was summoned on Tuesday, at the coffee house, the drum was beat to arms, and after a long to do it was resolved to be put in requisition, who?—who do our readers imagine this wise conclave selected as a fit candidate to represent the agricultural interest in parliament? why, no less a person than our old acquaintance, William James, Esq., once member for the city of Carlisle, as he remembers to his cost, the advocate of a total repeal of the corn laws ;—universal suffrage, vote by ballot, annual parliament-man. But the most absurd piece of the plot is to come yet. The freeholders who take upon themselves the office of dictatirni to the county who shall be their member, are of the monstrous number of ten! Ten only could be found, after many hours' running to and fro ; and who are the ten ? Why, first, we have Henry Howard, of Greystoke. By the way, how is it that he is not the man, for we have heard for months that Lord Carlisle would back himself against Sir James Graham ? But that, it seems, is a flash in the pan ' • another of those inge nious inventions of which so many people in Carlisle are proud, and we envy them not their skill. Then we have Major Agli. onby : and why is 'he not selected, for we believe a more esti mable man (always save and except his political opinions) does not exist, but even he must give way to " Barrock Then we have Mr. Wm. Crackanthorpe, who does not reside in the county, and Mr. Joseph Salkeld, who is an Irish absentee, with a few acres of land only in Cumberland. These are all the county gentlemen that could be found to ask Mr. James to represent 4,633 freeholders. Four in number—the glorious quarto! The immortal four! Why, the thing was too ridicu lous to think of. Well, what was to be done ?—for it was evi dent that some show must be made, and a lucky thought jump ed into the head of one of the four. "Ah !' said he, "by the bye, the town council are n o w me t ; th ere w ill b e a glorious haul. We know they are all right," and accordingly the Town hall was scaled, end the requisition banded round. " There is Mounsey, the mayor, he is safe, put him down—there . is Peter the Great, ditto, down with hi m —th ere i s Alderman Ferguson there, for a wonder, he will do—there is Connell, he used to be yellow, but now he is a rad, aye, he is a sure hit. There is— no, no; the rest wont do, they have beerkbehind the curtains, and knritsv 'rather too much 'orsour hero. So We had better de camp." But still, what a pitiful muster ! " Oh," said one, " let us leep into the magistrates' room ; we may chance to catch a oose fish there," and accordingly they hooked Mr. T. C. Heys ham : so here we have four country gentlemen, a mayor, two aldermen, and two common-councilmen dictating who shall re present the eastern division of Cumberland. Oh no—we beg pardon, there is also Mr. John Elliot, the tail; why that young en tleman is placed so prominent we know not. Of this w e are sure, that if it is put to the test the result will be th a t M r , J ames will be expelled by a vast majority of 'freeholders. The blue party in bast Cumberland could not put forward a worse can didate to secure the suffrages of the freeholders. Curiously enough, it happened that Mr. James was in Cat lisle on Tues day, and this tremendous requisition was handed to him; but it is said that he gave a shake of the head as ominous as Loid Burleig,h, put it in his pocket, and galloped off to Allonbv to consult his better half. So the affair remains. It may, at last of all, go off in a mist. Some of the agricultural party, we hear, talk of nominating Mr. Howard, the present member for Carlisle; but a gentle man has been named on the conservative side, who, if he con sents, will stand most deservedly high in estimation, from, his rank, his connexions, and his sentiments, but, above all, from hi s good old English feeling and conservative principles. A few hours will, in all probility, throw a great deal of light on the subject. STATE OF THE WOOLEN TRADE, &c. The Leeds Trade continues as brisk as it has been for some months past. The principal demand, just now, is for cloths of secondary quality, which are consequently improving in price. Huddersfield market, on Tuesday, v'as again a brisk one : the demand was principally for plain cloths. Halifax market, on Wednesday, was rather better than it has been for some weeks past, as regards the demand, but there was no improvement in the terms at which sales were made. BRADFORD MARKET.—The demand for ail descriptions of six-quarter merinos continues unabated, and there is an insuf ficient supply of the finer qualities of the article. Prices are consequently firm. The purchases of finished goods have also been extensive, and the stocks in the merchants' warehouses are very limited. The demand for yarns of all descriptions is very good. with prices disposed to advance, and there is a steady but moderate demand for wools at firm prices. YORK WOOL MARKET. August lB.—The supply of wool to t hi s day's market has been larger than usual at this rather ad vanced period of the season. There were many lin% ers in at tendance, and a fair q uan t i ty o f business done. Prices remain firm upon our last report. LIVERPOOL TIDE TABLE. Days. Mvn. Ern. lit. Festiva/A, H. H. H. M. Y. I.
