About a quarter to four, there was • oonsiderable
stir owing to a burger being brought in, in an elevated
condition, upon the shoulders of two able supporters'
but our blue-freaked friend was able to give his vote.
As the hour of closing approached, every one looked out
tor the time, and groat fun was oomudened by its being
found, that almost all the clocks In the neighbourhood
told differently. Watches were referred to, and jest as
one party declared It was two minutes to four, and
another that it yea past, • lady voter appeared, escorted
by that active and well-aocustomed agent, Mr. R.
Mettle, with all the politeness he so well knows
how to show. The Liberals shouted that it
was too into, the poll most be closed;
but Conservative watches obstinately showed one
minute to 4. The scene forcibly reminded those present
of the dewriPtlon of a similar affair when, we believe,
• voter at Lyme Regis, turned the seals about 4 o'clock.
'T‘rotilil hove been interesting to have known what
was the "mean solar time" at old Weymouth Town-
ball just then, for although Greenwich time is univer-
sally adopted, yet there was no clock to show it with
sullieient authority. The dispute waxed lively, when a
voter, apparently In the employ of the brewery, lustily
shouted that it was one minute past four. At this
there was • shout of laughter, for the lady was
evidently in Conservative company. "Ab I but" say.
our brewer's man, "I voted for Mr. Vertue." The
vote was refused. We mention this little incident with
the greater pleasure, as showing that the alteration of
the Agreement was not supported by the whole of the
Conservative party. Of course the burgesses have the
most ported right to nominate and vote for whom
they choose; but in this case, there Is no doubt that
the Liberals were taken at • disadvantage by believing
that the arrangement for the retirement of Kraut.
13aunton and Beale would he maintained.

WEYMOUTH WARD;
THURSDAY.
The burgesses mustered at 10 at the Old Town •
Hall, and the Ward Alderman wee soon in attendants..
The WARD ALDIRM4III now declared the result:—
Mr. Henry Devenish 220
Mr. o,orge Janne Vertu, 172
Mr. Jobe Bsunton ... 162
Mr. Charles Beale 1
He therefore bad much pleasure in declaring Henry
Devehili and George Julius Vertu° returned—(cheers)
Mr. VERTUu said he stood before them elected for the
third time. It was evident they thought he bad done
his duty, and his voice would always be lifted up for
measures really for tho interest's of the town ani rate-
payers. He was sorry an old friend of his had been
nominated to be shot at ; but he absolved
Mr. John Bannton from the slightest blame.
The way in which the election had been conducted
must be • disgrace to the party who permitted It—
(Voice: dirty)—but it will come back upon them
another day with two-fold interest, lie thought an
independent body of men ought to have known better
than to be led by • man who certainly ought not to be
in his present positlon—(hisses). Many a poor man
stands In terror of that cisme of men he alluded to—Mr.
E. Martin—(groans). He did not know what bretil he
belonged to. (Voice: A black one.) He had nothing
to say against Mr. Devenish, but his party had not
am:ideated this election In a fair and honest manner.
Mr. Touts &warns said It was not altogether with
feelings of pleasure that he stood there, for he thought
the arrangement was quite complete, and there would
be no contest, and It was not his wish to have one.
Still having been Ow:Jed In that pßitlon, It was his
bounden duty to thank those gentlemen for the support
they had given unaeked—(deep silence). He did not
put in an appearanee all day, lest it might be thought
Ise hail influenced any one to vote for him, as it was no
part of his desire to come forward. Had he felt such
an inclination, he would have issued an address. and
asked his brother townsmen to have supported him, and
he AS3 ra.i.ficd that when the time arrived they would
phoe him in a majority Instead of • minority—
(applause and a voice: Nest time come out like :a

been here, the ortkr of the village has been very much
improved. The sergeant has set a gcod example, for
be never touches intoriosting drink, ant cloth); his
residence, we hear, drunken offenoes have Won much
fewer.

On Mr. Willie's call three cheers were given for
Mr. Vertue.
Mr. 0. BILLII said he never hid the ambition to lead
ill to Kok • seat in the Connell Chamber. lie
thanked them for electing Mr. Vertne—(applanse),
Mr. T. K. WALLIS said strategy had been used, but
it did not succeed. lie pitied poor Mr. Henry Devenish,
to think that a gentlemen in his position 'hoed be led
bye common rate gatherer, and he did not admire his
pluck for not coming there to-day (hear, beer).
Although they were called the poor working men of
Weymouth they bad used their discretion and judgment
by stadia, Mr. Venue, On the other side of the
erst.r they ought to have done the same—(applause).
He was proud that he had nominated Mr Bede, eel if
he hail known what ho did now, Mr. Beale would have
been elcated—(applause). Thay could have pulled bhn
in yesterday afternoon as easily As they did Mr. Venue,
for there were many C iuservati VOI who were &thaw( .1 of
their pony, end of the triclory and treachery, end
the de,repntable way in which the election had been
carried. They were come toe aids, and must open
their eyes, and BCC whether they ere robbed or not.
Let eve. y Mon who has • right to be put on the beigeu
list see thst he is put there, and there were many who
will rslly round hint to scrutinise the books of this
parish, mei take care that Mr. Marlin shall not hove
the power to be galled the king of the town. Mr.
Welsford had acted an honest upright part as a Caw
servetive, endue Liberal he would thank him. Lie had
no personal animosity to Mr. Martin or Mr. H. Devenish;
but in future if thoy put up • man let it be known who
was to be fought, and not try to win in an under-
hand wet. He exonerated Mr. Battuton so far, and
did not believe he would have be3o pulled by the nose ;
but Mr. B Lupton was asked to permit • bill to be
isthed e-y:nil it was not his intention to stand, and if
be htd done that there would have been no contest.
(Velcro: That is the paint.)
Mn, HAUSTON said ho did Pay It was not his wish to
bane a emtest, and when uked to put out a bill, he
wrote one, but he was called upon and asked at a
favour not to issue it, because matters would then be
conducted mush more quietly, and that the arrange-
ment would be made at the polL (Cries of "The cat's
out ef the bag.") He saw both parties with reference
to this, and ono Gould not be exculpated more than
the other. (Mr, WALLIS : That's it. It was tarried
on too quietly.)
On being cathd on,
Ms. Wien said the Conservatives may say what they
please, but this contest was • disgrace to them. He
chararderised their proceeding. as " damnable
hypocrisy." Who was in the Boot Inn, making out
tho voting pipers for Mr. Bannton! Why Mr.Bannton's
own brother worked like a doi for him, and he (Mr.
Webb) saw him filling up the voting papers as fast as
he weld write. Why was that done, if Mr. Bannton
bad really retired? (Shouts, and uproar.) But they
must be satisfied with their victory, and Ist byegones
be byegonee. He proposed a vote of thanks to the
Ward Alderman and AMOI•0111, and eapecdally to the
former for calling out the votes as they were recorded.
The Assessors were not employed as was the CIAO over
the water, where one was all day, not recording the
votes, but sending the voters' mimes and the way they
voted every five minutes to the Conservative committee
room.

Mr. VERTU& seconded the vote of thanks which was
carried by acclamation.
The WARD ALDERMAN acknowledged the oompliment,
and said he did not anticipate that he would have to
rcmain lathe place HU four o'clock. He tame from 90
or 100 wiles dLtanoe to carry out hia dutiok and was
glad the eleoticm had been carried on so satisfactorily.
There was only one drawback—the unfortunate pre-
dicament in which he found himself in this horrible
place (the Old Town Hall) and among the many im-
provements the Cotten ought to aceomplishwould be to
get rid of this betstly place, and get another where the
publio business could be conducted without danger to
life. He was at one time very unwell ; but he met with
snob kind treatment from the bargee's' that he was able
to carry out the duties to his own satidaction, and he
hoped it was to theirs. ( Voice"' : So you have, sir.) He
should be very pleased to meet his friend Mr. Vertu°
In the Town Council, for he always attended to his duty
there, and it was the duty of all who entered the
Council to study the interest, of the town, and not of
th, toselves—(bear, and alien).
Several rounds of cheers were then given, and all
mewed to go off happy.
