LON DON.
MONDAY, JULY 6, 1818.

Oa Saturday the Election terminated in Wesef-
minster, when Sir SAMUEL HOMILLY rod Sit
FRANCIS BURDETT were chosen by a large majorii y
to serve as its Representatives in the ensuing Pal %.
liament. For the proceedings that closed this it
wresting and memorable contest, and for the pubis C
honours conferred on Sir SAMCEL ROMILLY, • e
loud refer to other parts of our Paper.
The triumph of independevce is now complete, a
far. at least, as the representation of the Metre .
polis in Parliament is concerned. The eight 11em .
.bers delegated to represent the feelings and lac
tect the interests of the most populous, intelligent;
and wealthy portion of the empire, are men pledge d
by their past conduct, or by their solemn engage -
melds, to pursue a line of policy free from tl e
trammels of power, and may be expected to 'noir,
on every future occasion, superior to the StARCIiOI •
of courtly intrigue, or the terrors of minister' tl
authority. The Electors have gone even Lathe r,
arid by rejecting those Candidates who, as Met a-
lters of the late Porliainent. sacrificed the dear. at
interests of the country to gratify the vanity or t be
ambition of Ministers, have testified in the m: at
emphatic manner their detestation of the itieusu: rs
pursued by the present Government. This its. t.
stout, too, it must be remembered, has been pr
flounced in the very seat of Government, where t be
influence of the Conit was most capable of peri.eii-
ing the opinions and conduct of the Eleetora. It
has beets pronounced its the midst of the retainers
of Nlinisters aunt cniuisterial men, iii oppo:'nun is
their most strenuous exertions, and these not If-
strained by any scrupulous regard for regularity or
delicacy. It has been pronounced, too, let it 'lever
be forgotten, in the very seat of iiitelhgence, and
on the very theatre where Ministers and their late
subservient Parliameut enacted all threw acetic.,
which now awaken the voice of indignatiun slat
hatred in every part of the Empire, and conse-
quently in the place most capable of formeg (V,'"
rect opinions of public measures. We trust the
consideration will sink deep into the minds of the
people in general, and teach the most rtil,ctisq;
part of theta to appreciate fairly those AL:toter-
ageing whom the public voice has never
to be unequivocally expressed in every part of tl R.
country, wherever an opportunity Iwo been pre-
sented. No man has been heard to utter a word
in their favour, hut such as they have loaded
with benefits: and though this comineutlation has
been partial and timid, no man could verituT
ur the expression of it, but with the hazard I
his life. We have ever been foremost in condone-
ing the peisonal violence of the populace, but ee
cannot avoid ulluding to it now, as a proof of the
extreme unpopularity of the present

We Live received Pori, Papers of Wednesday
