blesome; about half-past five o'clock, at the time Mr.
Huut was speaking, he was pirticidarly so; be fregnentli

that it was by accideut and not intentional, but on coml_
toning his elthy conduct, he wits convinced it was by design.
Mr. Lee, the High Constable, confirmed the *swipes( of
Byrne as to the violence of the Prisoner, his gritting, and,
in addition to hie general infamous' conduct, be observed
him pulling up the cuff of his cost of the right side, so as
to leave his wrist completely free, and then stoup down,
which be concluded was for the purpose of picking up some
hard substages to throw at some person. He accordingly,
to prevent his doing mischief, ordered tweetsl constables to
seise and secure him, which was seeurdiegly dune, nod be
was locked up in the wateliluoise.
The Prisoner, in his detester, admitted that be had clear-
ed Aft week as he termed It. He acknowledged his having
been fuer days dories last week maims( theiholl in the flout
of the hosting% lo defend Mr. Hunt, whom he considered
to be very ill-treated by Sir Froacis Burdett's Committee.
He wily viewed his conduct as an dent ion frolic.
The Magistrate told him that spitting at • perms' wallah

'yond description:
The hinting*, which bad been erected Atoll most
extensive scale, and winch, from an old etiatinit
preval. sit in this town, were considered by the snob
as their propertyi were almost iiistintanetniply
molisbed and carried away by them: The too
successful Candidates then ascended the chairs
which were prepared for the occasion, mil were c sr-
ried from the Misting. to the Guildhall; add the...l.
to the Audit-house, amidst bursts of applause,--the
Yeomanry band attending. We are happy to stfite
that no seriotts accident happened, although, (rem
the confusion that prevailed, it ads naturally to he
expected. Ou the Memberie.retnrn hi the Audit-
helm, and haling alighted from the chairs, the same
were immediately torn to piecei by the mob, several
of whom. from their eagerness to bear away some
trophy, were thrown down and trampled Upon. and
were with great difficulty rescued from their perilous
Mutation. We are sorry to state, that a gentleman
of the name of Keele was robbed of his watch its the
crowd, which being great, he was prevented disco-
vering the offender. The election which has thus
terminated (after six days very warm contest) was
distinguished by the most disgraceful scenes of
riot and confusion. Our much esteemed mid high-
le respectable (though unsuccessful) Candidate.
Lord Ashtown, was most furiously ihmatilted, both
on going to acid returning from the liu,tings, by an
infuriated mob, and but for a host of friends who
rallied found bins, and the interference of some
must respectable Inhabitants who warded off the
attack, his life aught have been sacrificed. Its ag.
