DERBY COUNTY ELECTION.

The election of a Knight to represent this county
la 'Parliament, in the room of the late Edward
Miller Mundy, Esq. took place by appoinimeni of
the High Sheriff, Philip Gell, Esq. at the County
Hall on Monday last. The High Sheriff took the
Chair soon after ten o'clock, when Francis Mundy,
of Markeaton, Esq. the only candidate on the oc-
casion, appeared in Court with a numerous party
of friends; at the same time the doors being opened
to the public, every place affording a view of the
proceedings was immediately occupied. His Ma-
jesty's writ, the Act of Parliament against bribery
and corruption at elections, &c. having been read,
and the usual preliminary business dispatched, the
Sheriff addressed the Court in a nest and appro-
priate introductory speech, delivered with ease and
distinctness; in the course of which he paid • just
eulogium on the public conduct mid private worth
. of our late worthy Member, and lamented the ne-
cessity of the present meeting, occasioned by the
fragile stale of human life; and concluded by
forbidding those present who were not freeholders,
on pain of punishment, from taking soy pert in the
proceedings.
Sir GEORGE CREWE then rose, and proposed Mr.
I Mundy, in the following terms:—" Gentlemen, in
rising to address you on tl present occasion, I feel
a confidence, that so enlig
a body of men as the fret older' of the county of
iteied sod so respectable
Derby, can nerd no admonition from me, as to the
nature of the important business on which we are
this day assembled. TIN tribute justly due to the
memory of him whom jeo shave lost baring been
paid iu a way which his great merits demanded, by
our worthy High Sheriff.st remains for us seriously
to consider the nature of the duties we are about to
perform. Gentlemen, you are this day called upon
:to exercise one of the dearest and most glorious
•privileges of free-born Engliehraen—you are called
upon to discharge a most solemn duty, which you
owe not less to your Country at large, than to your-
selves in particular. You are about to select a per.
son, whose voice shall be yours in the British
Senate, and into whose hands you will confide, with
a fair aid generous confidence, the charge of your
local and private interests, as well as of the public
and national welfare. Gentlemen, if the qualities
you require in your Representative are zeal in his
office, diligence end constant attention to the dis-
charge of his duty, firmness in the hour of danger;
prudence, moderation, and discretion in questions
of doubt and difficulty; if you require a wilily
integrity and an honourable independence of action,
I will not tell you that I hope, or that I think, but
I do tell you it is my firm belief, that you will find
these qualities suited, and (if you honour him with
your,approbstiou) you will see them exemplified
in the person of Francis Mundy, of Markeaton,
Esq., 'who 1 therefore venture to propose to you
as a fit and proper person to be one of your Re-
presentativea in Parliament; as one who will pro-
. mute, to the utmost of his power, your local and
private interests; as one who will at the same time
be a witchful guardian to preserve inviolate the
rights and dignity of your church, your King, and
your country." This short but eloquent address
was delivered in the most impressive and energetic
manner, and received with universal satisfaction.
The firuoureble GEORGE Vsamon seconded the
proposition in brief and appropriate terms ; and af-
ter the applause occasioned by it had subsided,
and no other candidate being proposed, the She.
riff declared Francis Moody, Esq. to be duly
elected.

Mr. Mu MDT then presented himself to the Court,
which he addiessed with much animation and
energy, as fotlows:—
" Mr. High Sheriff and Gentlemen—l have now
to perform the most difficult task it ever fell to my
lot to undertake. How sufficiently to thank you
for the high honour you have conferred upon me
I am totally at a loss. Through your abundant
kindness I have attained the highest point of my
ambition ; and it shall be my study to deserve your
favour, by an unremitted attention to the arduous
duties of the situation in which you have placed me.
To sour local in t ts, attached as I am both as •
native and resident inhabitant of this county, it can.
not, I hope, be doubted that I shall be zealously at-
tentive. I lay claim to independence in the plain
unsophisticated meaning of the word ; I also lay
claim to integrity of conduct and uprightness of
intention ; my judgment may err, bat I will never
give a sole contrary to that judgment, nor from any
corrupt or unworthy motive. And I hope whets
the time shall arrive that I shall have to ',sigh into
your hands the trust you have this day been good
enough to repose in me, I shall be able to meet you
without a blush on my cheek or a stain on my con-

science. Too happy. shall (be, if the favourable
opinion now entertained of my private character
shall hereafter be extended to my public conduct.
Gentlemen, from my heart I sincerely think
you all."
At the conclusion of the speech the applause was
loud and rei ierst,d, and not a single mttrmur of dis-
sent interrupted the unanimity which was displayed
on the occasion.
A resolution of thanks to the High Sheriff for
his able and impartial conduct in the Chair, was, On
the motion of the Hon. George Vernon, seconded
by Bache Heathcote, Esq. unanimously carnet
with much applause,
The new Member then received the warm congrao
tulation. of his friends, and was afterwards ch,orki
through the principal streets of the town askidst tb
frequent arclamalious of thv•populyce, •
lu the afternoon • large and highly-reopertabin
party of freeholders partook of an elegant and
somptoous dinner et the King's Head Inn, at which
Mr. Mundy presided. Excellent dinners were also
provided on the occasion at the principal inns,
where the parties were severally visited by the new,
Member in the course of the evening, sod the ut-
most harmony and festivity prevailed.
We hove been favoured with the following parti-
culars of the proceedings at the George Hotel, and
regret our inability to gin a similar detail of them
St the gt.her hou+ee
:111t the George Inn en excellent dinner was pro.
vided,- to which a very large company of freeholders
sat down. When full justice had been done to the
ample provision whiehinid been made, the venerable
Chief Magistrate of this borough, Thomas Lowe,
Esq. who had been requested to take the Chair,
rose and paid a few words of compliment to the
freeholders. He then regretted that a younger and
more able Chairman had not been assigned them,
though, as his best wishes were with them, and the
cause which had brought them together, he would
exert himself to the utmost to promote the social
hilarity of the feast. His Worship then said—
" Being assembled in our elective capacity, it be-.
horn us in the first place to remember who is at
the head of the Constitution under which we live—
s Constitution that best promotes the general wel-
fare of the country, and the dearest rights of indivi•
dual.. Getitletnen
The King."
Then followed— •
6, The Royal Family."
The CHAIRMAN then rose, and prefaced his next
toast to the following effect Met as we are to
celebrate the election of a gentleman who is justly
esteemed by all who know him, we cannot sutler
him to remain longer unnoticed, now we have paid
our respects to the Sovereign and his family. The
father of our new Representative was a gentleman
that lived in the hearts of all around him, and,
though now removed from the stage of life and trsa
fulness, he is embolmed in all oar ineapories. It is
•gritifying to us to behold hits sakyralkiug in the
seine path—the desire to serve the generation iu
which he lives. For I consider that man who de-
►otes himself to the Legislature of his country
with that rectitude of principle, that store of infor-
mation which characterizes the new Represeutativa
fur the county of Derby, al one who is highly came.
ble of benefiting mankind. Let us hope that that•
Being who atoue can give Scooters wisdom, will•(
bestow every blessing both of mind arid body upon
our worthy Representative—
" Mr. Moody."
This toast was received with great applause, and
drank with three times three.
• The next toast was thus introduced ;—" From
the frailty of human nature, angry passions will
arise in the breast of nations as well as in the bosoms
of individuals; hence we stand in need of those
who will defend our national tights; let us 'hen nit
forget those who will expose their lives for the sake
of their country—
" The Army."
Then followed a song.
After the glass had circulated, the MAYOR said
he had a very favourite toast to propose. The pe-
culiar situation of England demands defence, not
by land only, but upon the waves of the ocean also ;
we owe too much to the navy of England to forget,
when the cup of joy and remembrance is going
round—
s, The Wooden Walls of Old England, and the Hearts of
Oak that etas tbeia."—A
The next toast, the CHAIRMAN said, which he
had to propose was the health of a Nobleman, •the
first in rank, fortune, and liberality— . • -
" The Lord Lieutenant." :"
The " High Sheriff" was next noticed. Then the worthy
add noble coadjutor of Mr. Handy, " Lord George Caves.
dWIr."

J

Tbee followed "The Members for the Borough; and may
every Member of Parliament is every vote be giver, be acts-
ated by the principles Mr. Mandy bas ibis day professed—
' aecordiog to his conscience, and to the best of his judg.
meot'."
The next toasts were the Mover and Seconder of
Mr. Mundy.-.
" Sir George Crewe, and the Hon. George Vernon."
" The White Sails of Commerce."
"The Magistracy of the County of Derby."
" The Agricultural Interests, •ud the Freelsoltters of
Derbyshire."
Tire health of the Chairman was here proposed,
and drank with every demonstration of respect.
After he had returned thanks, he thus addressed
the friends around him :—" Interested as you may
well suppose me to be in the welfare of • town in
which I have spent now but little short of fourscore
years, I cannot but look upon the great increase
which has taken place of late in my native town
with considerable solicitude. The tosst.l am about
to give is a customary one upon occasions like this,
especially where so many of its respectable inhabi-
tants are present—
Prosperity to the Town of Derby.
" But from all I have read, from all I bare seen,
well am I convinced, that ' Righteousness alone
ex•lteth. either • nation or • town.' A town is
not the atone walls of its houses, but the info-
bitants thereof; upon them depend its welfare,
and if one part is delighting in vice and profaneness,

CONGRESS OF VEhONA.

A long statement has been published on the
Continent relative to the proceedings of the Con-
gress. The following are extracts
The conferences of Verona began on the 20th
of October, at Prince Metteroich's, in the Palace
Capelleri. All the Sovereigns and their Ministers
were present. In the second conference, •hich
took place on the 22d, the Ministers traced the
march to be followed, sud the order of the clues.
bons that were to be discussed ; from that period
the different Bureaus became extremely active,
It was generally supposed that the politics. of Prince
Metternich would serve as the basis and rule of
all the determinations of the Congress. The Rus-
sian Minister, Count de Nesselrode, a professed
statesman, acts in the same political sphere. SI. • o
terial conferences followed the second general con-
ference, and the presence or the Monarchs not
being absolutely necessary, the King of Prusia left
Verona, with his sons, to pay • visit to Venice.
The Ministers of the great Powers hold their sit-
tings daily. The Prince Metternich is the Pre-
sident, and the Aulic Chancellor, Genie, acts so
Secretary.
An important document had, in the first in.
stence,,heen submitted to the Congress by Prince
Metternich. Ii comprised five principal objecta—
the two first .related to the affairs of Naplee, Pied-
mont, and
,Greece—the third referred to Spain—
.‘
and the two last embraced the Secret Societies.
With respect to Spain, the question of an armed in-
tervention had been resolsed in the affirmative, in
consequence of the representations and demands of
the Cabinet of the Tuileries. The preparatory
cliicussiun turned only upon the difficulties and
mode of execution in case of war., It was not in..
tended to enter upon the campaign with ao impos-
ing force, unless the Cortes obstivately persisted in
keeping Ferdinand in captivity, and in rejecting a
Monarchical Constitution. It was not wished to
impose one upon them, but to induce them to udopt •
it.theniselves. ,
"In the order of deliberations, the affairs of Spain
had the priority, as the most grave and pressing. It
was felt that upon the solution of the great qoestiou
of an armed interveution might depend the fate of
monarchies, and of present and future revolutions.
Hence the two parties which divide Europe inter-
preted, each in his own sense, the eventual inters.
bons of Congress. According to the revolutionists,
it was only wished to maintain the aloha quo ; or to
state it more clearly, the foment state M Europe,
without, however, suffering the existing revulutsous
to make fresh progress. Hence, England, Austria,
and Russia, would have coatioued to keep down
insurrection in the East, whilst insurrection iu the
Peninsula would have been rep dby Fisoce,
and by her army of observation.—uothing more.
Thus, the declaration of the five Great Power., so
impatiently expected, would have had for its object
to announce simply to the world that they were
mined in views and interests for the maintenance of
peace, and the repression of all subsequent revolu-
tionary attempts. Hence the revolution of Spain
would have received from the Holy Alliance a di-
ploma of guarantee, and the principle of armed re,
volt would have been consecrated in the diplomacy
of European lonerchies.
"The most simple examination is sufficient to
shew that this was the plan of England in op.
position to the reser of the Continental Powers..
Her policy was entirely and directly to avoid soy
recourse to arms.

tive to the Congress. The Vicomte de Alontruo•

LON DON,
FRIDAY, Novgagerat 29, 1822.

The Paris Papers of Tuesday have arrived.
They throw no new light upon the question of
peace or war with Spain. The famous TRAPPIST
has abandoned the Araiy of the Faith, and arrived
at Toulouse.

All sorts of stocks, English and Foreign, cape..
!rimmed • rise yesterday. Consols opened at 81j,
and left off at Ettti fur the account, and for money
at 811.—New Spanish left off at 59i : it had been
up to 60. The improvement was caused by the
arrival of an express in the morning from Paris,
with favourable accounts respecting Spain. It is
said that MINA has followed up his successes, and
completely destroyed the Army of the Faith ; that
there have been several other engagements in various
other parts, in which the Constitutionalists have
been successful. Every thing in the French
capital appeared peaceable. Other private accounts
from Paris state, that a party of the Army of the
Faith, in their flight to the French frontiers, were
met by wee French troops belonging to the Army
of Observation, who rebuked them for their cow-
ardice—a quarrel ensued, and the French party
fired on the Spaniards, at the same time calling
out, " Vice Is Casailrlion !" it is said the
French Government have done all in their power
to keep the above a secret from the public. The
dispatches from Verona are also stated to be fir
fourable.

Bayonne Papers to the 40th instant have been
received. They contaiu the following observations
on the threatened invasion of Spain :

BAYONNE, NOYEEIBBR 19.

Travellers dilly arriving from the Peninsula
complain bitterly of the great number of robbers
Who infest the high roads, but otherwise tranquil-
lity generally prevails, especially in the great towns.
The most perfect union cont►nues between the
Cortes and the Ministry. The writer of the late
article in the Jowled des Deka: seems not to be
acqsainied with Spain, or, at least, lie roust have
been misinformed; for to believe that modifications
in the constitution might be obtained by force of
arms, is an illasiou. The new system has struck
too deep root; the revolution oust proceed in its

:course ; the Liberati know that they cannt go back,
and that they are übte to surmount all obstacles to
the consolidation of their work. Tne invasion •f
the country by a great army. supposing it could
even reach Madrid, would increase the disorder
and anarchy, but not lead to the triumph a hich
is desired. Spain is not a rich nation, whose
people dread a foreign niers), : the great ma.-e has
nothing to lose; naturally poor and miserable, they
are always ready to take up arms, and there is no
doubt that the present Government has sufficient
means to set them in motion. It is but too true
that the three Biscayan provinces, and Navarre,
would be glad to see an auxiliary army, which
would restore them their privileges and commercial
immunities which they enjoyed before the revulu-
tioo : but this *mild have no essential influence in
'the interior, for these provinces have always been
considered as if they were a foreign conntry;
the rest of the nation was jealous of the im-
munities they • enjoyed, and had frequently de-
manded the suppression of them, and the dude-
luster-la Castillians, and other people of the Prom-
solo, would desire no better than to make war there,
respecting the places which manifest attachment
to the Constitution, such as &Iberia Vittoria &c•
It appears certain that if the late Ministry had pro-
ceeded boldly in • constitutional manure, there would
not now be any insurgents in the three provinces, or
in Navarre,notwithstanding the protection they have
received abroad,for in fact what have Eguia,Quesada,
&c. hithertO done ? In all this time, though they
flatter themselves with having the inhabitants in their
favour, they have not been able to possess them.
selves of • single point d'uppui in the country, ex-
cept that miserably fortified house Irati, which they
would have lost long ago if Espinosa had chosen to
take it ; whereas the Constitutionalists, though they
cannot depend on the inhabitants, like their adver.
series,- still maintain themselves with a haudful of
brave men.

The Gazette of St. Sebastian contains nothing
interesting, it merely mentioos the arrival at Vit-
toria of two battalions from the interior.
The Saragossa Gazette says, that Mine, whose
head-quarters were at Agramout on the Bth, hoped
to approach Urgel in a few days. The company of
migeelets under his command has lately been re-
inforced by 300 deserters from the army of General
Erolles.

The same Journal says, that Balbastro is evacuated
by the Trappist, and that the troops of Velasco
again occupy the banks of the Once, from Fillip'
to Andagneso. Another battle was soon expected
on the banks of the Segre in the territory of Oliana.
It was supposed to be the plan of Erotica to draw
Mina into his almost inaccessible positions. Ar►ests
and emigration have begun at Saragossa. Three or
four Canons are mentioned as being thrown into
pri►on, and the Clubbists demand that the Arch-
bishop shall be deposed; the authorities have re-
ferred to the Government.
