wbom they conceived hostile to their interests, and
they designated in on equally lambic man-

tirans, delivered rece.n.ling to ilia eiiihusia.nt and

. thanks in a very significant manner.
Mr. Alderman Brydges, o, person, thanked his
fruiters from the hustings; but the popular Alder-
men, whoee names are put in nomination, very
solely left to the Livery the reception of their
ffirtails, and we did not observe on the hostiugs any
Gentleman who appeared in particular to represent
them.
Soon after one o'clock the Lord Mayor and Mr.
Sheriff Ruthwell set out in state from Guildhall,
to be sworn in in the Court of Exchequer at West-
minster. They were very uncourteously greeted by
the crowd outside the Hall. We did not observe

novel anti amusing of their congratulatory eject,-

The polling, for this day," terminated at three
o'clock. At a quarter after three, Mr. Hoot made
hi+ appearance, and was loudly cheered by the
Livery. He took his station in front of the hust-
ings. and bowed repeatedly to the assembled mul-
titude, who completely tilled the Hall. Soon after-
stards, the numbers not having been announced.
the Livery grew impatient, and the cry of " Pull !
pull !" became universal.
Sle. Hunt stepped forward to ellsv the tumult.
" Gentlemen." said he, if you make Y noise, the
clerks cannot cast up the poll. Yon 6d better.
therefore, remain quiet." This appeal produced
immediate silence.

At a quarter before four o'clock, the numbers
were announced as follow:
Fur Mr. Alderman Wood

The exhibition of the boards bearing the names
of Aldermen Wood and Thorp, produced exsilting

witich were converted into bursts of laughter whee
the tame of Mr. Alderman Hevgate was held up to
public inspection, accompanied by the notification
that TWO Liverymen had given him their suffrages.
As soon as the cla:nour had subsided—
Mr. Oitivatt stepped forward and addressed the
Livery. The result of-this day's poll, he observed,

dom, it) us much as the 'Moistened Candidate had

Candidates by about one hundred on this day's

lect, that the Comotittee who acted for the anoint-
serial Candidate had put to motion all the tactics
that could be moulted to during a contested elec-
tion. They had, in fact, brought forward all their
forces on the first day—whet-ear the friends of Mr.
Alderman Wood and fit,. Aldermati Thorp had
come to the poll apolitoneourly, firmly. mod (vigil-

the present, when the light Of moral sod political
knowledge had buret ou the minds of persons of
every age, sex, and condition, that the Livery of

that this was not their cause, nor the cause of any
nian or set of men, nut war, in truth, the cause of
every individual throughout the cnuntry.—(Cheer-
ing.)—By exhibiting 4 just love for the constitu-
tion, and by supporting independent men, the edi-
fice of corruption would be shaken to its basis, and
would finally crumble into its native insignificance.
--(f /leering.)
i'rEII,IIISNS said, he agreed in the ob lion
or the Gentleman who hid just spoken, that the
ewe of this days pall was nratt;eitirophant for the
,City of London. It was particilitrlli" so at the
'present period—for, had the friends of Alal•rm.nts
Brydges reserved themselves for the last dry of the
'poll, or retained their suffrages till towards the
close, and then made their best exertion, the sup-
porters of the popular candidates would not proba-
bly have been able to make a commensurate effort,
and thus the cause of independence might hove
bean defeated. But this bring only the second day
of the poll, sufficient time was afforded them to
make powerful exertions, and, therefore, they had
a right to thank their opponents for thus putting
forth all their strength at the commencement of the
contest.—(Cheering.)—lo a Morning Paper of this
day—one of those hireling prints that disgraced the
City of London—they were spoken of as a band of
conspirators. It was there said, that a conspiracy
existed in the Hall yesterday, and that the conspi-
rators ought to be brought to trial and punished for
their conduct. He admitted that it was a conspi-
racy—a most glorious one—a conspiracy of honest
and independent men, the friends of the Constitu-
tion, against the yile corruption which at present
existed, against that venal herd, who were feeding
on the very vitals of the people.—(Long-continued
cheering.)— It was a conspiracy its favour of the
law, in support of the Constitution. against those
revolutionists, who, as Magistrates. Coroners, or in
tither capacities, hail been destroying and treading
under foot both the law and the Constitution.—
(Cheering.)—He rejoiced in being one of those
conspirators—and he trusted that the conspiracy
would in the end root out the system of the
borough-mongers, who had destroyed every thing
that was dear to the hearts of Englishmen.—
(Cheer/19;4-11e hoped to see those corrupt minions
removed, and to behold his countrymen standing
once more in the desirable situation of being pro-
tected and defended by the law of the land.—
(Cheering.)—He had seen in the Pspers of this day
seit Address from the Gentleman who is celled the
Mitiniteriel Candidate. He stated nn what ground
he had become n Candidate—end he declared, very
candidly, that if the Livery requested a Common
Hall. lie would grant it. if the business for
which it a.ms to he convened met his wishes.—
Now he nithed the thing to be clearly understood.
There was a greet dill rence between requesting
a man to du something which he was not compelled
to do. and requiring him in perform • duty.—
(Cheering—'• True! true !")—A requisition, di-
rected by a portion of the Livery to the Lord
Mayor. requiring him to convene a Common Hall,
was a direct call on him to do a .duty, it was not a
request to grunt a favoter.—(Cheering.)-.At was the
right of the Livery of London to meet in Common
Hall, whenever they considered that they laboured
under grievances. which ought to lie redressed. It
was the right of the English people to petition the
Throne for a redress f grievances—and, when
tftereent-ii letter to the Lord Mayor, desiring that
a Common Hall should be convened, they did not
seek • favour, they called on him to concede their
undoubted privilege, to let them meet, agreeably
to the constitution of the City.—(Load cheering.)—
They had seen the laws trampled under foot—they
knew that a large portion of their fine country was
at that moment existing without law—they kuew
that justice was not to be obtained in the northern
parts of this kingdom-,-they knew that justice
slumbered—and it Isis only by powerful exertions
in the City of London, and throughout every part
of England, that they could rouse from their secore
slumbers, those who had broken instead of sup-
porting the laws. He wished to awake them. not
to mummify dr%tructiciii, but iii order to bring them
to the bar of their country, that they might meet
the condemnation and punishment they deserved.—

(tlietling.)— It was eery clear that there was, in
this country. much pove►ty and distress—it was
equally clear that there was a great portion of
loyalty to the Throne and affection /or the Cousti-
tutioii.—(.l True! true r ) —So there ought to be.
The people and the Throne ought to be united to-
gether—they ought mutually to support each other
—soul those who endeavoured to inculcate the doe-
triiie that their interests were different, took the
surest method of destroying both. There were two
kinds of paupers in thin couotry—both supported
by the great body of the people. The Poor's Rates

~.

Tr! iiiitAncil the industrious man, who I:ad passed a
life of active labour, or it relieved the individual,
who sought for employment, but could not procure
it—but the King's Taxes supported a different de..
scription of paupers—those paupers who rode in
their chariots, and who laughed at the miseries of
the people.—( Expressions of execration:)--The one
was a starving pauper. the other a rich, • fat, •
pampered pauper.—(" Tree ! true !" and loud
cheering.)—lt had 'onset:ones been observed, by the
tools of corroption, that so much had been said on
these subjects, it was time that they should herr no
more about them. Sonic days ago. when he was
speaking on the Manchester business, it *as observed
to bins, " We have heard enough of this—let the
subject drop." Really, those who thus expressed
themselves most think that the people were fools—
they must suppose that persons in power bad a right
to starve, or murder then. if they thought fit, soil
that they could pay all by a portion of fair words.
This docrine, however, would not do. The words
the people used, however they might be censured for
speaking, were meant to bring those who oppressed
them to their senses—to compel those who had the
power to put down Oust ahorninable system which
elevated the worthless and ground the poor to the
earths. Whenever that systsm was altered, whenever
the poor man wet enabled to live oti the produce of his
labour, then the people world cease from talking,
because that. the absence of which occasioned them
to talk, would have been bhtained.—(Clieering.)—
Hat a right to demand the services of the Livery '
on ties occasion. They were all freemen, and
they ought to unite to bring in an individual who
would zealously support their rights and liberties,
who, on all occasions, would enable them to discuss
their grievances. It \was, therefore, the bounden
duty of the Livery, for their own sakes, to support
Messrs. Wood and Thorp.—(" We mill, we will!")
—The Liverymen ought not to require pressing in-
vitations and conststit convaising. Those who sup-
ported the popular Candidates had nothirg personal
to expect from their conduct—hot thote who took
the other side, had the Treasury to depend noon.
Sod, however, though Alderman Brydges was
thus assisted, he felt a confident hope. that every
independent Liveryman, that every friend to free-
dom, would vole for Messrs. Wood and Thorp,
in order to secure a Chief Magistrate who would
watch over their rights end priyileges.—(('heering.)
Mr. HUNT now stood forward amidst the loudest
applause.—" Gentlemen," said he, " I have just
received a message. requesting that 1 would not
address you, because 1 will injure the cause if 1
No! ao!")—f! the cause of liberty is to
suffer because any individual address-es you, then.
Gentlemen, it is high time that that cause should
fail. It remains with you, whether I shall address I
you or not.—V.:mow! cries 0 f "Go on! go on !")—.
Perhaps you had better hear the Gentleman's rea-
sons fur requesting me not to speak.—(" Who is
her Who is he r')—The name of an individual is
of no consequence—the request, I believe, comes
from a body—and the way that those Gentlemen
who call out for unanimity attempt to procure it, is
by quarrelling with their frietids.—(Loughter.).—
I have an important duty to perform towards
you and monads myself, and nothing shall
now prevent me from performing that duty,—
(" Well done, Hie* !")--Let those who have
airmen down the greatlet take the consequences.
Gentlemen, I have stood forward on this occasion,
because I thought that I was serving the public-1
did not stand forward to serve it petty faction.—
(" Bravo, bravo !" intermingled with a few hisses.)
Let the person who beeves come forward, and, if he
ran, let him confute any thing I say.—(Cheering.)
When I came upon these hustings, I applied to the
Gentlemen who have taken a lend in the Committee
of Messrs. Wood and Thorp, and asked than whe-
ther they had made any arrangements—because, if
they had, I would not iuterfete to interrupt them.
The answer was, that they had made none,
that Mr. Oliver would address the meeting, and
that eio further arrangement had been mode. But,
since I stepped forward, I have Leen told, that if I
addressed you I would injure the cause.—(Cries of
" No, no !" and " Name, name !"J—Gentlemen,
1 understand the individual doss not mean this intl.
!nation es an insult to me—he must, therefore, in-
tend it as an insult to you.—(Cheering—" Well
dune, give it him, Ihwt .")—lt is an important
contest iu which you are engaged. It is not a ques-
tion between Aldermen Brydges and Alderman
Thorp. If it were a question between those two
individuals, the best way of deciding on the elec-
tion would be to put them in a bag, and, having
shaken them together, take him who came out
first,—(Laughter.)—lt is, in fact, a question essen-
tial to your rights. It is simply this—whether you
shall or shall not elect a man likely to obey your
instructions? Gentlemen, you have heard a great
deal about the rights of the Livery. The indivi-
dual who last addressed you, in an eloquent speech.
has spoken a great deal on the sitblect of those
rights, and on the importance of Common Halls.
What are Common Halls at present ? What have
they been fur many years past ? In the time of
Mr. Beck ford Common Hulls were of great import-
ance to the country. You then had the right (and
there stands the monument of the man who con-
tended for that right) of going up to the Throne
with petitions and remonstrances. But the faction
which has ruled the Common Hall for the last 10
or 15 years, have sacrificed that right. Geode-
men, you have lost it—and your assembling is
now no snore than the meeting of any other body
of the public. Why rho nut those men who sup-
port this faction, stand forward and propose
such a Resolution as that which I offered yes-
terdsy ?—(Cheering.)—Gentlemen, 1 will pocket
all little trifling insults—but I will never pocket
the truth—at least I will never smother the truth.—
(Shows of " We know it, Hant !")--The Reso-
lution 1 proposed was as follows :
" Resolved, That a Petition, in coaformity with the fore-
going itesolutioug, be drawn tip by a Committee of firs
Liverymen, and presenod co the Prince Regent, in perms,
agretahly to the ancient and wholesome practice of ibis
City."
• Now I ask, when have you, the Livery; of Lott-
dim, been called on to petition for a redress of
grievances—or to present a remonstr.,oce to the
Throne ?—( Load cheering,and shoots of" It is oar
tight to do so.")-,Gentlemea, when I proposed, two
or three years ago, that you should do SO
I was put
down. I was told, that, you hail no right to
rdilress the Theme, directly, and that, therefore.
it was better not to petition at all.—(Laughter./
The tatter part of the Resolution set forth, " That

a body to Carlton House (as you have a right to

do), and petition the Throne, without the interven-
tion of any agent of Government."—(" So we
ought! so we au4ht !"1-11 such a proceeding as
this were agreed to, it wonld ba somethitig. But, us
the business now stands. the question is one that only
affects your particular right--.-54 to the choice of men,
it in a matter of little anoint:ince as far as two of
them are concerned. I ask you, did not Alderman
Thorp approve, in the Common Council, of the
conduct cf the Lord Mayor, with respect to the
tint Smithfield Meeting ?—(" True! he did ! he
did ! that should be reeollected."l-11 say, because
I know that he did. Perhaps I have dune wrong
in sonotherit"er this fact for so long a time--but it
ought to be known.—(" Tree, true !“1-1 think,
at the Petite time, that you ought to shew your ab-
horrener of the Lord Mayor • condoct by voting
for Alderman Wood and Alderman Thorp—and
will tell you why. Because, if the Court of Alder-
men agree to nominate Mr. Wood, you will have •
Lord Mayor whom you all know—one who will do
his duty by you and by the country.— (Cheering.)—
You have never yet tried Alderman Thorp—he is
a man of promise. You have elected him your
representative—he has gone into the House of eom-
moos—but what has he done for you ? Have you
ever heard his name mentioned since he has been
there ? You hove indeed heard of his making •
speech once in the Common Council, praising the
Lord Mayor for his conduct relative to the Met
Smithfield Aleeting—when, by the course he pur-
sued, he ran the risk of drencheng the street* of
London in the blood of your fellow-citizens!—
(" Trae.")-1 have no hesitation in saying, that it
was my intention to attend oa there hustings this day,
to ask this question—' If Alderman Thorp approved
of the conduct of the Lord Mayor on that occasion,
what security have the citizens of London that he
would not, if el tvted. act in precisely the same way r
He is absent. I have given him my vote and interest,
under the impression that. if he should be chosen
your Chief Magistrate, under the sanction of his
fellow-citieeus, and having present before him the
example of the present Lord Mayor, and the 'sigma
punishic'et infEcted out him, he would obey your
commands and do his duty.—(Applause.)---.1( flow-
ing the feelings of those Gentlemen who would
prevent my addressiug you to-day, 1 shall now re-
tire, and not trouble you again during this election.
__(re No, no, you shallnot.").—l will appeal to you
and them, whether, since yesterday morning.
I have done any thing to cause disunion among
the friends of liberty.—(" You hoer not."/—lt is
;tot my wish to cause divalents but that is a
bad cause which cannot bear the truth. As
for Alderman Erydger, you too well know his
public character, to Joubt wl:at way he would act
if he were elected. He filled the office of Sheriff,
and you bad ocular dentonetration of the course
he is likely to pursue, if lie is chosen Chief Ma-
gistrate. I have learned on good authority that
when lie was Sheriff, with, l think, Mr. Kirby, at
the time of the first Spiatields alerting. lie attended,
and that he—yes, this very Aldermen Brydges
(I hope he is present, and that he hill come for-
ward and contradict me, if I ant in error) was mast
anxious to bring in the military, and to play the
same bloody game that was played at Manchester
—( Loud groaning)—that he was anxious to order
the troops to chaster the public, and to cut them
down, and to take me prisoner ; and I am more-
over informed, that he was nut only anxious to do
so, but that lie would have done it, if he had not
been controlled by the better sense, discretion, soil
feeling of his colleague, Mr. Kirby.—(Ditoppro-
bution.)-1 will tell you my authority ; 1 had it
from a Gentleman of the name of Ilatidcock, yes-
terdity, on there hustings; and lie said that if it
should be doubted or denied, lie was ready to
come forward,
.and sn'aetantiate the fact.—(Ap-
plettrse.)--But although Aldermen Thorp, from
temporary weaknets approved of the conduct of
the Lord Mayor in relation to the Smithfield
meeting, yet no man that ever knew the tenor of
his public conduct, would suppose him capable of
being guilty of such an atrocious act, as sending
in a flawless military band to butcher his fellow-
citizens.—( Loud plaridits.l-11' you think hirn
worthy of your support, and I think'him worthy of
it, if it is only to shew your indignation spinet
Aldermen Brynges, who has been guilty of such
conduct, as I have related to you, remit no effort
to secure his return. I now retire.—(" No, no !")
—I came here with a bohemia attention
to promote
unanimity among those who are called the farads
of unanimity in the cause of freedom—but if my
prevence is injurious to the cause of unanimity and
liberty. it is best I should retire altogether.—
(Violent expressions of dissent.)— If you under-
stand use to any that I will cease to give my sup-
port to the common cause of liberty, you unison-
stand the ; I will still exert myself wherever occasion
calls for it—but, as to city *quibbles, I henceforth
wipe my hands of them—l will come forward and
deliver my sentiment* on public questions when I
see a necessity, but I will never join in any petty
cabal. to do this thing or the other thing.—(4p-
plause.)-1 know they would have entitle use clime.
and have then done with me, as they have dour
with others; but that they had a different charac-
ter to deal with.—(Larghier find cheering.)-1( es-
terdmy 1 said I had received a letter, informing
toe that the Lord Mayor had nitesided to lake into
custody any person who proposed any business at
the Common Hall but that of the election. Two or
three Gentlemesi in a corner. not those around nit,
cried. • Produce the letter.' I 'have it now, with
the Loudon post mark on it. I shall read you the
latter part of it, which relates to this circum•buice.
It is dated Monday, the Y7th instant, and I got it
out Tuesday morning; and in fact the getting it
was my great inducement for cowls% ltetr."—Mr.
Helot then read the passage, nearly in the
lug terms :
" There is to be a Common Hall in-morrow fur wearing
in the Sheriffs. It is expected there sill be as eight day:
election fur a Lord Mayor. There is to be • meeting at

down in despair; there are other people and tali,:

every avenue and dirty 6.14 of corruption', what
have they done ? The Committee of Alderman

dragged up here to give their suffrage agastiq their
own sentiinents and iliclisoutions? They know that
tbey perjured themselves by voting against the:r
own conviction and conscience, rod in addi.ion to
that sting, they have been loaded with your coo-
tempt and execration.. Stich is the contrast, be-
cause they have not the resolution to burst their
bonds asunder, and dash them at the feet of their
amassers. Let every Englishman that has a drop of
blood in his veins, exert himself on behalf of him-
self and his suffering countrynieu. l.tnlrss ion

the field), unless you are willing to sulhv the
same treatment from a lashes., furious band of
nissaries—come forward cheerfully, mud give your

and if I see you are successful I 'hull rejoice at
your success, and I shall enjoy the tieltlyports with
