Mr. .1. L Phipps said it was=impostible to follow
Mr. Boulay in his Agares and in hie staboients; bulb.
would say gedrally that they did not impugn or prove
to be incorrect auytbm that had been stated by them p.-
Clemen who had toted with him (Mr. Phipps) in this
matter. Mr. Du Boulay bad laid great thaws epos the
distances, but neverlldses he had admitted that the
figures which he had quoted were oompandive instead of
real, and therefore all that he had founded upon them
asconsarily fell to the graced. He (Mr. Phipps) would
not follow him into all the details, bends he eta goes
that the court had already hard quit. enough on the
subpart. The last time that he addreuaed the court at
Devizes in support of the petitions in behalf of 'Asbury
and Mere, he fancied, in the simplicity of his heart, that
ea
one of those petitions hid been rejected merely on as
• of an informality, that the mooed petition in
which that informality had been corrected as a
natter of course. He found, however, that he had acted
without his host, for the Land Prasidaat of this Privy
Coated (Rad Graavillo) deelarsd that he could ad
present the amended petatios to Her Mijosty, sad that
the whole matter mast be gone lido di mum It had
been said that this was • political antatioa, but be
begged, on behalf of himself sad of those w 66 bad
acted with him, that if they had had one wish bayed
soother it eat that there should b. ne political triumph
of any kind, (hear, hear); bat what they bad all wished,
and WU wished, was that the greeted amoutodation
should be given to the voters that composed the
present Madan polling district, ag fat as might be en-
siled with what was due to the other polling plaree in
the division. He moved, as an sassediniet to Mr. Du
Bosley's acuto,. "met it he rofervd to the Animas

to call in any other. magistrate a OMB zaz&i,

them in their deliberations they be fanaished with all

late disserioa."

Lord Folkestone supported that Mr. Mereweethor
might be ereeledeil from mans, from having already
voted tie the qseetioe.
Mr. Pbiplis, mid in that cam he should leave it to
the two chairmen.
Rev. Prebendary Fans, in seconding the amendment,

Ir. Phipps did not make the proposition from any
sort of anxiety as to the result of a vote at that moment
to decide on the broad principlen spinet Donhead St.
Andrews and for Tubtary. Be had beard with sonrow
some remarks of Mr. De Henley in reference to the
part which be (Mr. Pane) had taken in the matter, but
be would only say in reply to those observations that his
character had now been before this county for • mon-
datable while, and he appealed to the court to my
whether it area quite the ' that • groat public ques-
tion should turn on individ References to all per-
sonal matters had better have bees left out. In &newer
to the remarks which Mr. Du bailey had made
with regard to Minden he frankly and honourably
sonfeemal that, I=h at the matter in • lair,
impartial, and manner, Minden ought
to cease being a pollintplace for that diarist, for if
they took More and 'fishery he considered that on
the whole the wants of the dletriet were telly met. The
abjection which Viasonst Folkestone had put forward
was one whisk he had anticipated, sad he had written to
Sir Join Awdry on the eabjeok to ask him whether he
would mites one of the referees, Sir John hod replied
to the elect that he would. He bed also written to
