Where even the whisper as word seould launch

EPILOGUE.
SYOII[IIO.N BY DIRS. W. WEST.
No longer now Camilla, I appear
In humble guise to court your favour here;
Contented In become a homely dame,
Yet still I glow with Freedom's hallow'd flame.
That hallow'd dame which famed by fostering time,
Will spread its light o'er very age and clime.
Rut must I now Custom's rule obey,
To sport on topics of the passing day?
Degrade the lofty Muse, whose power supplies
The moral theme that warns us to be wise!
In Eugene, young and noble, shears the dams
That Virtue kindles, burns in all the same !
Aye! e'en a women's heart may proudly swell,
Burn on the Lind that boasts her William Tell!
He who disdainful of despotic ire,
Blending the Patriot's with the Parent's fire,
Roused his indignant countrymen, and broke
With wit tootle smarty, a foreign yoke;
'Till Switgerland no more with tyrants strove,
Free as the winds ihat o'er her mountains rove.
But why declaim I thus on Freedom here
For Britain long has been her fay'rite sphere;
Britain, by her inspired, who led the way,
And rescued Europe from Oppression's sway;
Britain, whom Afric's claim with seal incites,
Nor deems that colour enamels human rights.
Now to our Drama.—Need 1 smiles implore
for her whose Muse has charm'd you oft before
Thaddeus of Warsaw—dues not ev'ry soul
Glow at the name of that heroic Pole?
Does not your sympathy with her retire
To rural quiet al the Pastor's fire ?
'Twas she who rous'il you with the martial strife—.
Twat, the who soothed you with sequesteed
Her's too the Scottish Chiefs, who nobly stand
To grace and to protect their honoured laud.
Must she then dread the critic's frown or surer,
And see her blooming laurels blighted hire?
who Freedom love will aid her cause,
In gen'rous rivalry of just applause;
And Virtue, to reward her mural page,
Hail with delight her triumph on Ibe Stage.

At nine o'clock this poll commenced

morning the poll cm.—
Covent-Korai-li, fur the Westminster Election.
The Inistilig. is eskted in the usual place—it is
nearly of the same dimensions as the lust, but not
lilted up in the saute substantial or commodious
manner.
At the np,ifie.,4 of the poll the business of the
hustings seemed to oilvaiice but slowly—this period

porary structures, ellen customers applied for the
accommotiatoon which they were destined to stroid,
and at an early hour the throng was as great uu
these elevsted positions as in the isms* in front of
the hustings.
The business of the poll going or. lint slowly, at
ten o'clock some stiatety was innsiirested for the
appearance of the respective spun the

the popular interest began to tire on the outset.
At lialf-past ten o'clock, Mr. flout made his up.
penrilice with some voters for Major Cartwright—
the name of the venerable Hla,jur, accompanied
by an appeal from Mr. limit for three cheers
.‘ the veteran Friend of ItelOritt.'' gave it little life
to the scene; some laughter was excited by some
persons near the pull-bouks, who observed, that two
of these voters had been members of one of Mr.
1-lohliouse's Conitfilltees. One of the voters, who
seemed to be a ',lain mechanic, it) tivllvvrtog 1110
vote fur the Major, complained of the ingratitude of
Sir F. Uortlvit, to whom lie liad given a plumper
at the Inns election.

About eleven o'clock, several voters polled for
Mr. Lomb, among them we observed Mr. Wisliart,
who has been so long an it,:tive promoter of the M..
deVelldellee of Westminster. At this period of the
day, Mr. Illobhouse made his oppearatice on the
hustings accompanist-it by Mr. Douglas ;
these Gentlemen were loudly cheered. Mr. Peter
%Volker, as the old friend of Major Cart-
wright, was also recognised as a popular favourite.
Mr. Macdonald, and other Gentlemen who take an
active part in Mr. Lamb's interest, were occasionally
upon the hustings.
Towards I:: o'clock a few yellow and purple
homier', on which were inscribed, " llobliouse, and
Purity of Efraions !" floated over the heads of
the crowd, end ushered in a number of the friends
Mr. llobhouse, among whom were tome of the
members of his Committers, who catoe thus early to
tender their votes.

At twelve o'clock the state of the poll was puts.
balled as follows. but the notification was unmarked
by any particular expression of popular seal

The bustle increased of course with the :advance
of the day, and the notification of particular Cots as
was hailed with the applause which usually attends
any accession of strength to popular Candidates.
The High Bailiff; the High Constable of West.
',mister, and a great number of special constables
were present, and the best arrangements appeared
to have been adopted for securing ingress mid
egress for the Electors, and general accommoda.
taint for those who had business upon the hustings.
Every thing went on with the utmost order, and
a• the irritability of the immense populate raisin-
Wage which from time immemorial congregates on
such occasions, is not likely to be excited by a
Court Candidate, we trust that order and decorum
will continue to prevail throughout the whole of
the proceedings of this Election.
We heard it whispered on th►• filming* that in
consequence of a rumour that Mr. llobliouse had,
in his speech from the Hustings on Saturday, ac-
cused Earl Grey of being an apostate from the
principles of Parliamentary Deform, two Gentlemen
waited upon him on Sunday, to ascertain if he hail
used the expressions which were attributed to lain.
The particular expression; Mr. Hobhouste is said
to have immediately disavowed.

At half past three o'clock Mr. Lamb entered the
hustings, accompanied by Lord Sefton, Lord Win.
Russell, Lord Archibald Hamilton, Mr. Lambtera,
mid several other distinguished characters. Mr.
Lamb was cheered as he entered. Towards the
close of the poll, the assemblage in Covent-garden
was almost greater thars we ever remember to have
seen it. The pavement, From the Piaega across to
Southampton-street, was pressed by one compact
RIM of people, No pent together that the least pres-
sure wined not to expel any one man front his po.
sition, but to give an undulating motion to the
whole. The roofs of the sheds and temporary edr-

Mr. HUNT having previously stepped to the trout
of the hustings, maintained his g I, and ad-

heard two of the candidates, and he trusted they
would hear patiently every Gentleman, whatever
were his political sentiments, who came forward
during this Election. Mr. Lamb said lie was a

had told them not what he meant, but what he did
not mean —1 Laughterf—lie hail made a family at-

Mr. EvAus again made his appearance, 'but
without being able to obtain a hearing.
Mr. TuEl.wAt./. also addressed the Meeting in
behalf of the pretensinits of Mr. Hohltousi.

Sir CHARLES WoLsEtatsr was, however, alone
able to obtain a learnig. lie said, that lie was five
minutes ag.., to use ass old We otaninster phrase,
•' iu a great look," but viewing the good-natured
faces of the crowd before ham, anal feeling his heart
in the right place, asal his praliciples firmly devoted
to the liberties of the people, lie took courage, said
all his tears were slow vanished.— (Appluuse.)—
lle felt it duly to come forward oo the pi esent
occasion, and he did so tor the purpose of proving
that Mr. Hoblionse was a political launalnag—he
also meant to prove that Sir Francis Burdett was
equally sn.—( Lnughter, murmurs, and applause.)—
%V heti a friend of Major Cartweigha's had told
them on Saturday that Sir F. Burdett evaa first of
all a friend to universal suffiage, to voting by bal-
lot, and to annual parliaments, the worthy Baro-
net distinctly gave a negative to his holding any of
these °Mammas. This was very strange. Dail lie
or did he nut, ma a late public occasion, eve, and
in las place in Parliament, avow each of the three
upioneins winch lie on Saturday dncluimed ?-
-(Cries 4r " Yes, he did.")—lt was his (sir C.
11'allseley'r) object to sheet that Sir F. Bilideit %;19
one thing to-day and another to-morrow, and in-
deed his political child, Mr. fitelihouse, gave pro-
nose of being the same. To •hew the facility with
;Oath Sir F. Burdett could change his sentiments,
fir would only beg leave to read one of the Reaolu-
tions which lie moved in the House of Commons,
on the .2d of June last:—

" That it is exprdient and necessary to !Omit to a partici-
pation in the Elective Suffrage, all such persons us losing of
the male sea, of mature age, and of Pl/111111 miuJ, shid I,
during a determinate time antecedent to the day iif election,
have been resident, either as householders or inmates, 14 'thin
the district or place iu which they were called upon to
vole."—(Applaate.)

Surely, if ever words were put together which
had any meaning at all, these words mast he taken
as upplynig to what was understood by the terms
" Suffiage." What did the Hon.
Baronet memo then when he said No to the allusions
inAde to his itulitical declarations on Saturday ? See
then is, what a shameful condition Sir Francis
Burdett placed himself, Mr. lloblionse and the
Rump—shame upon them for being so placed
at public view !—(Marazurs and applause.)—M r.
lloblinuse talked of bring tortured with tines-
antis on Saturday. With what questions ? Wes it
lousing IJniversal Suffrage and A tumid Portia-
limnenta dunned into his ears? If that were the
case, he did not wonder at Mr. Hobliouse, coml.
tiering himself tortured by any idlusams to sack
tender points. Many honest electors got disgusted
at this conducte—a very worthy man, Mr. George
Wilson, a boot-maker in Little Witidmill-strert,
Guldeti-stioare, had made this declaration, us he
voted to-day for Major Cartwright. " I was
eau-
vassed many months ago," said honest %Yawn,
" by Mr. ilubliuuse's friends—they said his princi-
ides were those of Sir F. Burdett, and the Radical
Refuriners. They put my mane down no their
list; but when I heard that Major Cartwright was
to he proposed, the motorist I heard that, and
found out the real principles of Sir F. Burdett
and Mr. Hobhouse, I %vent to their Cminattee,
arid ordered my name to he struck out of their
books. I desired it to be struck nut of their
horrible darkened page.—(Much laughter.)-1
come here not to give a vote to Burdett% maii,
because he who forgets an old friend does not de-
serve trust. Ido not like a snake in the grass. I
gave a plumper to Burdett at Ilia lost election, but
I out now very sorry for it." Such were the senti-
ments of honest Wilson, amid every plain fair man
will mark them with his assent. They had heard
Mr. Hohhouse names; but such 'seasons should
take care how they dealt in name-culling. Of the
two Candidates who had spoken, he (Sir Charlet)
would most decidedly recommend a preference to
Mr. Lomb, and he would tell them why, as honest
Wilson did, because hr did tint like a snake in the
grass. Mr. Lamb avowed he was a Whig--he
came forward iti a lair open way, while Mr.
Hub-
house came under another's wing, and trusted to
another's influence. lu preference to all he would
recunimeod Mtsjor Cartwright ; but, next i ,
decidedly Mr. Lamb taught to have their suffrages.

Mr. WOOIAR aruh that such an assembly as
that lie now addressed reminded him of the splendid
efftrts of Rome, asserting the susjesty of the

Hootiaii people.--(Appkuw.)—They were not
worthy of the name of Englishmen if they could
not feel like Englishmen when their libeities were
in danger.—(App/,jute./—They lord now three
Candidates before them. Oil them he hoped they
would exercise their judgment, and that too with
severity. Let them be uu longer deluded by pin-
mises—let them speak out, and hurl their bolt—it
would fall with tells-fold vengeance on the guilty
head. The time hail now arrived when, if the peo-
ple did not deceive themselves, olio A could neither
be deceived nor betrayed by nth, r.. The people
wormed a Radical Reform, and with tooihing Ire
than a Radical Reform would they be satisfied.
‘Vestraiiiister had long been the advocate of the
pure principles of general freedom, without being
governed by the petty distinctions of party. Mr.
%Voider avowed that nothitig short of a suffrage,
C/.-rxtroisive with the natural right of mom, ought
to satisfy the people. He was dileilitisetl. after
what Mr. Hubliouse said about Radical Reform,
that hr should have so qualified it as to make it no
IMorm at all.. He then ridiculed Mr. Hothouse's
definition of his political creed, and said it was ab-
surd to state, that the nearer the right of garage
approached the whole the better, mill tet that the
inmiteut it embraced the whole it was bad. These
Reformers ridiculed Major Cartwright's weapons,
aid yet they hail no others to use to wield 111 sup-
port of their own principles.—(Appiarse.)
Mr. GALE JONEs then manifested a desire to ad-
dress the Meeting, but it being six (o'clock, and
quite dark, the must effectual way of manifesting
dreorocluortion to hear biro was made by the crowd
separating, alter gising repeated cheers.
