ELECTION OF SPEAKER.

- _
After an absence of about ten minutes, Sir Drote Ls
MAILMAN'S returned and took his Mat at the table
ea preaideat, until • Speaker should be elected. It is
one of the forma of the house that, in the execution of this
duty, the learned gentleman dues not, as in the case of the
Speaker, name the member who catches his eye, but indicates
his selection by pointing to him.
Lord HARRY VANE, in proposing Mr. Evelyn Denison
for Speaker, dwelt at some length upon the dignity and
importance of the office, and afterwards urged that the mem-
ber for North Nottinghamshire was eminently qualified to
discharge the onerous and difficult duties hitherto imposed
upon the occupant of the chair.
Mr. T. THORNLEY briefly seconded the motion, and
said be believed Mr. Denison would make a firm and impar-
tial Speaker.
No opposition was offered, and the right hon. gentleman
wee conducted to the chair, and took the usual oaths.

THE LATE GENERAL GUTON.—Within the 1a
week, the name of the brave General Guyon, born in the
pariah of Wakot, Bath, has been recorded on the monumen-
ta obelisk, erected by the inhabit/cuts of this city, in ths
Lyncombe Cemetery, to the memory of their fellow citizens
who fell in the emotes. The followmer is a copy of the On
acription to the memory of General Guyon
Kam.
GENERAL RICHARD DEEM:BRE GUTON.
()Ryes vas • noble soldier, a true Palsdin, and Ms deeds
on the battle Held bring home to our minds the days of
chivalry. His whole career in life, though brief—fur he
died alter a few bourn of intense suffering at the early age
of forty two—was marked by great and uncommon evenn,
and saddened by cruel adversity. Feared and bated by
the despots of Austria and Russia for the 'maims which
be rendered to the cause of liberty, he was especial de-
nounced by the governments of those countries, nilployed ail their great and united influence to crush his mili-
tary progress, and to bring him into disfavour with Tur-
key, the country which be was nerving, and whore sic,
he may be said to have formed, organised, and led into
battle. General Guyon was not only the " bravest of the
brave," but a skilful and judicious commander. He pre-
dicted the fall of Kars montha before shot fortrees fill
into the bands of the Russians, and pointed out the way
to save it, but his suggestions received no attention, and
to this hour his eervieeo hero not been acknowledged by
the English government, though Sir William Williams,
Colonel Lake, and Dr. Sandwith have been loaded with
honours. To the Listing honour of the Emperor of the
French, who hod no fear of Austria or Buda before his
eyes, he beheld with admiration the military talents of
Guyon. and recognised the services which he had ratdered
to the Turkish government when its army stood in need d
a European general. The Eilicieror, from his private purse,
intends to educate General Guyon's sons for military ser-
vice. Lord Palmeroton spoke materensly in the House of
Commons of Guyon's operntious in Asia. Let no hop
his will not forget to extend his sympathy to the soldiers
widow, the accomplished Countess Guyon, whose destiny
it is to return to her native country—Hungary—a Epter,
but, we hope, not friendless woman. Those of our readers
who may feel interested in Genera Guyon's military career,
we refer to "Mr. Runcorn's campaign with the Turks is
Asia," and to Mr. Arthur Kinglnke's interesting narrative
; of the general's exploits in Itungaty. The Inner gentleman
. has been the earnest and disinterested advocate of this
lamented hero's claims on public sympathy, and it would
bo difficult to speak too highly of bin energetic and able
. efforts in this eame.—Bulti Chrowerlp.
LITERARY ItOCUERY OF THE IiOYAL BETTIS'S
BANE.—AII who have watched the inveatigntions in the
affairs of this bank will remember a passage quoted from Ma
of its reports, in which it was spoken of an a pretty memos
as a rivet to which the branch banks in the metn.polis were
new villa, &c. We thought we bad seen the sentence be-
fore, and the other evening, turning over " AIDALUDD"--
pubhahed forty yearn ago—hem we came upon it word for
word. Alluding to Spiritlion, we are told that his life "re-
nembled the courre of a majestic stream, whose deep bat
tranquil waters, winding their ample way through fertile
plains sad flowery mends, AP they advance Mill receive flaw
new rills fresh ntions .. while at each step also they
mere profusely all the fruits of industry and all the
of pleat v." Mr. Secretary Cameron no doubt had the
in his library, and marked off the passage ns the very tinge
to gull the Cockneys and enhltace his own lliterary,
tion. The roguery of the bank wan consistent from begins
sing to end • its very figures of speech were stolen, besides all
its figures of arithmetic being falsified.— Bonder diroliNt.
TILE LATE RIOTS AT KIDDERMINSTER.—We re-
«oily mentioned that a numerously signed memorial had
been presented to the Right lion. Robert Lose, expmetigg
sympathy with hint in respect to the dastardly tiokuce to
which he bad been subjected at the election. The mayor
has received a knee from Mr. Lowe acknowledging tlr
receipt of the memorial. This reply was itomediatskl
printed and circulated through the borough. After conliek,
thanking the 314 prisons who signed the address, many 01
whom, he °bee rood, had auffiwed in person end property
is
endeavouring to protect him, Mr. Lowe declares • I how
not the motive of the attack upon roe, but one effort I bag
to assure you it will not have; so long rut I retain tat
confidence hitherto extended to me by my constituents. se
mensees of physical violence will deter or from Milli
soliciting their suffrages, or induce me to change my resign
tion to Mond by them so long AA they are willing to appal
me."—Worcester Cheoarte.
BOLD itASCALs AND TIMID RASCALq.—Ifc said
that when a person had once made up his mind to becomes
highwaymen, his beet policy WAS to go the whole bog, fear-
ing nothing, but making everybody afraid of him;
the
people never thought of restistinr, a savngettaeede foga-
mouthed highwayman, and if lie were taken, were afraid M
bear witness ageing him, lest ho should get off and cut the&
throats wino time or other upon the roads; where's. nesfis,
would resist being robbed by a sneaking, pole-M ord i'sm",
and would new bodily against him on the first opporfunia
—adding that Atorahaw and Ferguson, two most metal
lowa, had enjoyed a long career, whereas two disbanded
Mbar. of the army, who wished to rob a comb like gentle'
neeassimeas
had the
heenth''sePwengt upenbg"rithe passeto'n' and
talked

amongst whom were three women, pulled from theit holler
