CALvEnT itunsediately advanced. He was
particularly indebted for that, their fourth exertion
in the contest, and fur the great eiumbers by which
they had decided it in Ins favour. They might
rest *soured that the plans lie had chalked for him-
self, and which had been to uniformly approved by
then', he would still pursue. If any question of
difficulty should be started, such as that winch had
beeti intimated in the placard, the Boman Catho-
lic quertiosi, but which, by the way, he had never
voted for, as was alleged by the— (air. Cal-
vert was here interrupted by the High Bailiff, who
informed him that he was premature in returning
thanks, as no return had yet been declared.]
(d laugh.)--This being doile, Mr. Calvert re.
stirred. He hoped as long as ever he should
remain, in the house of Cotiamons, that lie should
never comiult a greater blunder than he hid doise
out of it, to relurn his thanks for their favours
prematurely. Ho trusted those thanks would not
be the less acceptable becauve they were too
promptly offered. He was going to say he had
never voted fur Catholic emancipation. But, in
fact, uo such question had ever been brought for-
ward. All that lied ever been done was a motion
for a Cotumittee to inquire into the grievances of
the Catholics; mid to their petitions for that oh.
ject, or indeed to ally petitions respectfully couch-
ed, praying the House for consideration of the
claims of the petitioners, he never could, lie never
would turn his back so long as he represented them.
( Load applaose.)—lt was impossible to satisfy
every one of his constituents. The elector► were
made sit 4 perpotatt.koldirig 31 Breit variety of spe-
culative political opinions. to any great questiou
ttist should spring up, he would never vote until
he had called Isis constituents together, consult
their wisher, and act accordingly. The Catlipiic
questibulTas one upon winch he should feel himself
bossivd.to tbe guided by their particular direction.
Hivingilitanked them, Isis next thanks were due to
the High-Bailiff, for his impartial conduct, not
only in conducting the election, but for his readi-
ness in calling meetings frer political purposes,
whenever requested so to do by the electors. He
complimented thefts on the patiekte and forbear-
an-e which they had shewu to the failing candi-
date, upon ,whout, however, lie would not make any
disadvantageous observations. He would not put...
sue a fallen enemy. Indeed the Hon. Baronet had
throughout behaved like a gentleman. He lord
nothing more to add. He would exercise his best
judgment on their behalf ; when that failed hint, lie
would come and consult that of his constituents.—
(eippluese.)

Sir ft. Wil.sou was received rather more whir-
ously. To their exertions be owed the speedy close
of the contest. He had not been so sanguine in
his expectations of that conclusion as his colleague,
who had for mice belied the proverb, that a mats
might be a good prophet its his own country.
There should be no exertions wonting on his part
to prove his fidelity and gratitude. When thi had
first sent him into Parliament, they frill 111111 as
one whom they tl ghit worthy of serving them.
Now lie was commissioned by them as one who had
been found worthy of their service; and he prided •
himself upon that, not so much as a personal
tioction which lie hail acquired in lava f horn-
self, as a means which would give him w hitioual
power to be useful to them and the country.—
(upplause.)—He was placed in a station of honour
which was the highest that any man could obtain
in a free State, when that honour resulted from
dignity conferred upon him by an independent
elective bpsly.—(applause.)—lt had beets charged
to him and his colleague, that they wished to make
Southwark is close borough. He declared that
such had Bever been his inclination or wish ; he
hoped never to live to see Soistilicirk changed into
what he would call an lierticiplirodite hoiough, hillf
Whig and hallToryLanglaer)—ciying out front

would be able to ascertain what it wished for; one
party requiring an atlg :M4OOOlOll of taxes, the other
requesting that thrre• should he no augmeutatiou.
If ever this should e to paws, the electors must
suffer. The candidates might be froward and
peevish oats with the other, like mail and wife, and
say " I will," mud .* I wont;" hut having to rest
on tise same bed, most likely they would make up
