they were likely to get any reform fettil a government. such
as sewed be forme lby Lonl Herby or Mr. Disraeli? If they
wanted a government that would support the honour of the

suppesition that he would ragwort pmgreasive and liberal
umesuree, be pledged hinoelf to support Lard l'idniersten
upon every liberal n.oure. That gentleman's manures were
not always in favour of refonu, and therefore any one pledg-
ing himself to support him in all things world not be en-
tirely the aupp.ater of libend mns•urrog. Mr. Vansittart
had an interest in the borough, and if ho went to the Ironies
of Common. he would go inipletiged, and give loin fire cup-
port to any government bringing furwsrd bland and pro-
gressive raollnUren.
No other candidate having been pisiposed,
Mr. GERNFEI.I., who wan most inthumetically received,
briefly said that during the Live ye nv in which the electors
had reposed maritime in hint Lis votes bespoke his
carcer.r Be woo nut for half and half measures. Ile had
never forfeited any, he Wit, going to sty pkrigea, but ho
never bad any forced upon him; he hod sorer done anything
different from whet ho originally rinifessed. Ile wan, an he
ever bad been, the detente of progressive reform, was
favourable to an enlargement of the ',enrage, and during a
outer of many yearn we. never but once absent tom Lis
post when any measure of that character was before the house.
Mr. }Urania). who was also sanely rdeeived, slid that if
addresses went for anything, then his opponent was an out-
and-outliberal ; but to thought it mom fnon hi. ante-
' (*dente, that he woo ld be it supporter of Lord Derby. The
preeent opinion of the government was the opinion of the
country; he himself supported it. It was liberal, and this
borough, by the return of its tried liberal ntembere, would
give an Additional suppoit to that government.
Mr. VANSMART, who then mile for. ard, was received
with tremendous cheering. Ile said dust he woo awry that
hie opponent., in the attacks they bed made upon hint, had
not allowed the dead to rest. llc could came them for
their taunts about his inexperience in them matter., but
eixteen days' 41111,.5s had taught him 'touch in eltetioneoring
matters. But a knowledge to render hint an effitient repre-
sentative of this borough was nut wanting. Ile Mid been
a moldier, and for years was a magistrate holding high official
appointmentr. He watt endeared to the borough, and its
interests, as a resident. Ile had been taunted about
Lord Derby and Mr. Disraeli, but he did not
even know these gentlemen; anti surly any set of his
brother's ought not to attath It Lim. when he was not even
in this country to know about it. lie thought the Chinese
war ought to be rrigurenbily Fobbed until the British flag was
fixed at Canton, and ell the puce made free. If he west into
the house, be ithould support the church, and vote for all
liberal and progreasive turrsur.s ; should cheek grivemitent
expenditure; vote for the extinction of the ineoint, tax ; pro-
mote the interests of the working vlonnen by the 'Tread of
education and emigration; and should always vote indepen-
dently of men or poly 14 liberal maxims.
A 'how of hands being taken, the choke was deeter,sl to
Lave fallen upon Mr. Grenfell and Mr. Vansitiart, upon
which a poll wen demanded.
