Within, the msllery was by IM *self the
candidate, and his supporang I bat the body of. the
hall was mos filled with a afire body of sturdy dismal-
Gems, who took every peril& spp.rtunity dating the day,
of showing how little they eehtdded with the political pia-
ple which was about to triumph.
The HIGH SHERIFF having opened the proceedings
with the used formalities,
Sir H. LAMBERT came forward to propose Mr. Henley
se a fit gad proper pencils to represent the county in parlia-
ment. He felt it to be his duty to congratulate the consti-
tuency on the event, for the previthe public services of
Mr. Henley were sufficient guarantee that he would faith-
fully discharge the duties of his important poeition. (Slight
cheering.)
Mr. JOHN LECHMERE, in mosoding the nomination,
and that pence from him of the candidate would be wholly
supufloon. The pledge that gentleman had gives on fleet
entering parliament was that he woulo do his duty, and
that pledge he had fulfilled to the uttermost.
The SHERIF!' having asked whether any elector had a
Gandhian ta propane,
Mr. FA I; LEN ER came forward ad claimed the privilege
of proposing a candidate. (Loud cheers) He did not
mean one of those men who went into the legislature with
the view of making laws solely for their own benellt ;
but a candidate who was deserving the coolklenee
el the people at large, end who would go to
the House of Commons, not as a party man,
but as a man of the million. (Cheers.) They had beard
how Mr. Healey came before them, having been elevated
to the high maid= of President of the Booed of Trade.
What did be know ef trade ? Ile was • landed agsire of
the earth—earthy. (Lewd laughter.)) All he understood
was protection, NA ha (Mr. FMsk.ur) would ark the
people of Ozford whether they wished* see that gentian

this appeal.) They wanted to go Messed, sot bask; and
Mr. Healey and bh piny wen all samies id pro-

lar
straia on the ineneolitiee is the oiselos, Mr. Faulkner
concluded by proposing Mr. Jobe reek. a condlidate.
Mr. KING seekded the meleeek• amid much
cheering.
The show of heads was ahead to be taken, but there
being unmistakeable indication that it would be in favour
of the free trade oendidate, a thin parley was held on the I
platform, and ultimately Mr. Fowls was induced to come'
forward and address the eseellkeary.

Laws League, that the amestikoary felt se well disposed

Mr. HENLEY came leeward sod wee heartily sheered
by hie supporters. He said—OiseUeasee electors of the

public man than a knowledge of those opinions. I have
always remarked in the public assemblies of this country
that the people are disposed.to give fait play and a fair hear-
ing te every man, and therefore I hope fore fair bearing on the
obasnadeas I am about to make. The speaker who pre-
