NORTH WARW ICKSIII RE.

The nomination of candidates for the northern
division of this county took place yestenlay, at Coleshill,
• village about a dozen miles from Birmingham, on the
old %Veiling-street road to Liverpool.
Sir G. Cu F.T proposed C. N. Newdegate, Esq. lo
bad discharged his duty as their late representative
with unblemished honour and integrity, and he (Sir O.)
would say that his hon. friend might challenge any man to
accuse him of any one aet of his life of which he need to
be ashamed. (Groans., It was unnecessary for him to say
more. Mr. Newdegate's opinions and his were well known
to them. ile (sir 0. C.) entertained no fears or appre-
hensions as to what the result of the contest would be.
. .

At this period an immense concourse of persons entered
the Market-square, and commenced, after some uproar,
suedes upon the parties wearing the orange—(Spooner and
Nevidegate)—colours. It cannot, however, ho fairly
said that violence or outrage was confined to
our side, for it was clear from apperances that " roughs"
as they were termed, were employed both in favour
and against protection. The last importation of these gen-
try, and which put those of Messrs. Newdegate and Spooner
in a met decided minority, was said to have come from
Coventry and Nuneaton, and were considered the genuine
di scendants of the old " Jeffery and Barlow" mob. The
riot (for at one period it was nothing less) assumed a most
alarming aspect. A dozen tights were going on at the same
time—the rush of the crowd was terrific—and a carpenter's
bench in the front of the hustings, which had been placed (or
the accommodation of the reporters (and upon which some
gentlemen were seated or standing), was literally smashed to
atoms. It was with difficulty the reporters made their es-
cape out of the crowd, and succeeded in obtaining admission
into the Market-house.

J•ver TAVLOII, Esq., of Moseley Hall, seconded the
nomination.

Lord Joffe Score, on presenting himself to propose Mr.
Spooner, was greeted in a manner similar to the preceding
speakers. Not a word could be heard even by those who
stood neat to his lordship. He therefore contented himself,
having proposed Mr. Spooner, with silence, as also did Sit
WILLIAM HAMTOPP, who seconded the nomination.
Sir RODIRT Peet, who was loudly cheered by his
friends, nominated the Hon. Keppel C as a fit and
proper person to represent the division. Sir Robert was
equally inaudihle, as was also Mr. PARSONS, a tenant
farmer, who seconded the election of Mr. Craven.
E. KENDALL, Req., proposed and BARON WZRSTER,
Esq., seconded the election of Sir T. 0. Skipwith.
The riot and confusion which continued prevented the
Sheriff being heard when he asked whether any other can-
didate was to he proposed. Not being proposed,
Mr. NEWDEGATE presented himself, but was unable
to obtain a hearing beyond the two gentlemen on either
side of him. The fighting between the opposing " roughs"
was constantly continued in all parts of the immense assem-
bly, and one or two farmers are said to have been seriously
injured. We understood Mr. Newdegate to say that he
had already, in his address to the electors, ca-
ptained his political views. (Loud groans.) He believed
that Lord Derby would not bring forward any measures
which public 'opinion would not sanction. (" Oh, oh,"
and great uproar.) He (Mr. Newdegate) would uphold
the principles of civil and religious liberty—would oppose
the 'egressions of the Roman catholic", and seek to remove
those burdens which pressed heavily upon the industry of
the country. (Groans and booting.) He saw that their
adversaries were determined not to allow him and his friends
a bur hearing, and he therefore would not trouble them
further. lie only hoped that the electors would not allow
the county to be represented by mere political cyphers, bat
by men who would act fearlessly upon the principles they
avowed. (The tumult throughout was unabated.)
Mr. SPOON ER, aware that the assembly would not, or
that his friends could not hear him, simply said—One word
and I have done. I have served you to the best of my abi-
lity, and, if returned le pediment, I will endeavour to do
so again. If, however, pea art Mad another member who
will serve you mere lesseally or more ilthfully—who will
devote more time to whet he esesiden to be your
interests, you will he endiled in alsellmg Nor. With these
observations, seeing da temper stair opponents, I leave
you. (Groans salfsheers.)
The Hoe. F. L. CRAVEN wee received with both
cheers and diseppoistioe, the brew preetwalastias. As
far as we emit isameolool the boa guidon= be amid : If
they sent him is pouliament, bis beet earls shield be
given to premeds the bust interests of the esemley, and
of that musty in particular. If they returned Mos he
would give leteas pledge,
parliament for he did aft grove
of afilsi rassoble of s every
sjusidemple ; end that pledge would be tota pe
melt the
re-impeillon of the corn laws and the reversal
of the system of free trade. (Cheers.) At the
same time be would peseally give his support to any liberal
(oversaw& that mtglt am, into power. His impronilisn
was that insalsedable hese& had arisen to the wedgies
cisme hen the repeal of the corn laws. Those poem
who, whoa the torn laws were in ezistenoe, seeld meefildn
the neessearfes of life, were now living in ore sod us It.
He should therefore oppose her Majesty's
because they had declared that they bad
protection. (During the delivery of this wash lbw were
repeated fights.)
Sir T. G. BKIPWITH spoke to his bisulfate supporters.
No one a yard from him could hear a word he said. He
stated that his principles were the same as those avowed by
the previous speaker, and in accordance with these of the
late government.
The HIGH Sundry then called for a show of hands—
the names of the candidates being printed on boards—when
the Sheriff declared it to be in favour of Mr. Craven and
Bir T. O. ithipwith. We should think the proportion was
five or sin to one, the majority was immensely in favour of
the liberal candidate.
A poll was demanded on behalf of Messrs. Newdegate
and Spooner, which takes place cm Thursday and Friday
next.

NORTH STAFFORDSHIRE.
Td mesaination far dm northern division of this
meaty Ink pima Failerley at Stafford, and terminated in
ibis mon ma d die old members. There had
been MOW tea end*. forward Mr. Buller, of Dit-
hers* Hal, het tie *MIPS of mu. • pear to hays been
wanting; sad Lewd Amen% desertion of the lib.•
rale has a geed dal that party in the division.
His lordship placed limegif eeneadeuously amongst the tory
party in the Shire Hall le-day, and wee indeed almost the
only person of importance ranking amongst the liberal in-
terest who was present in the hall.
The lion. and Rev. A. C. TALUOT nominated Mr. Ad-
derley. He expressed his *pinion that the time of protec-
tion had gone by ; that the law must remain as it is. A
revisioe of taxation might be necessary but but it was too late
to think or taxing the food of the people. (Cheers.) With
reference to the Maynooth grant, on the subject of which
Mr. Adderley had touched in his addresi, he expressed an
opinion that no government could properly or with safety
any longer continue that grant.
mix Ceuen, Req. seconded the nomination.
Child in
11
nomina ,
tiEsq., of Diddulph, placed Mr. Smith
on.

R. B. Lsearr, Eq , seconded the nomination.
No other candidates having been proposed.
The HIGH-Busairr declared Mr. Adderley and Mr.
Child duly elected.
Mr. ADDERLBY, who was warmly received, said he had
been absent Bean his post night or day during the
eleven years be had been in their service ; he had neither
sought nor received favour of any kind, either for himself
or for any personal friend, and in any small patronage that
fell to the county members, ho bad invariably handed it

over to the eoastiteimay which did him the honour to re-
turn him to parliament. (Hear.) For hie political opinions,
he had only to say, that he had in no way changed them
eines they first returned him to parliament. It had been
said that they—the followers of Lord Derby—had changed
their opinions; that they had advocated a orrtaiu policy
out of office, which they were not prepared in nines to carry
into practice, but had, in fact, sought to kick down the
ladder by which they came into power. (Hear, hear.)
Nothing was farther from the truth, and the last
man in the world who should launch such charges
against Lord Derby's friends was Sir James Graham, inas-
much as that right hon. baronet was one if those who by his
distinguished talents and hi. eloquence formed that great
party of which Sir Robert Peel was at the bead 12 years
ago ; it was Sir James Graham who aided in building up
that party which he had since deserted and now daily tra-
duced. I see (mid the hon. gentleman) that there are
some here who prefer Lord John Ittusell--a Ran who pro•
mises much, and performs little ; those who like Lord
Derby, like a man who performs what he premiere ; who is
the leader of the band who support the old conservative
policy, and I hope he will carry it out successfully. (Hear.)
Ile is not like Lord John Russell, who brings forward little
!Desserts, like the little Reform Bill, to support his falling
administration. Lord Darby will not truckle to the Pope
one day and kick him the neat, but be will maintain con-
iistently the policy of the conservative party. (Cheers.)
lie will do that in office which will best conduce to the
support and the maintenance of the pevee, the welfare, and
the prosperity of the empire. (Cheers.)
Mr. CHILI) also returned thanks. Ho referred to his
past conduct as a pledge for the future ; ho had offered,
he esid, no factious opposition to the late administration ;
he was nut • blind adherent to Lord Derby and his govern-
ment, but he believed the government of that noble lord
was based upon principles sound and just—such as would
conduce to the promotion of the true interest of the coun-
try. (" Rear," mingled with hisses.)
The thanks of the elector. woe then mended to Mr.
Wise, the high Sheriff and newly.elreteil liberal M.P. for
the borough, after which the newly-elected knights, not
girt with swords, took their seats in a carriage drawn by
tour horses, and followed by an immense crowd to their
huts, on their way thither scattering handsful of silver,
for which the people scrambled good humouredly.
