the general good, and such as will meet your appro-
bation. I declare to you, that I would neither, bind
myself. to follow the Noble Lord, nor any other man,
in the views which he might ennu&ate at the pre-
sent moment on the question of free trade; because I
believe that that measure, changing as it has done, the
reciprocal relations of so many interests in society,
must be its own experiment, and until that experiment
has been further. worked out that no man can decide
upon its success—that in any event the burdens
of the country should be more equally divided.
That the agriculturist, who has suffered so largely,
should be freed, as far as justice will allow
him to bo freed, from the unequal imposts that be
has been made to bear, is, I do think, a matter to be
dealt with without loss of time. But when we speak of
free trade, may I ask, is it free trade, in the ordinary
sense of the Words, when the freedom Is on one side only,
on our part, and not on that of the nations of the world?

SANDWICH ELECTION.
(From the Kentish Gazette of this day.) ,
Two o'clock on Thursday was the hour appointed for the
nomination of two Baines for the borough of Sandwich, Deal,
and Widmer.' At that hour the Mayor, James Wood, Esq.,
aerived on the hustings, and thelormelities preparatory
to the nomination were forthwith commenced. No op-
position to the returns of Lords Clinton and Paget had
been anticipated, or was known but a few hours pre-
viously; and the surprise excited by an announcement
that a third candidate was in the field may be more readily
imagined than described. The new candidate was James
Macgregor, Erg , chairman of the South• Eastern Rail-
way Company ; and though that gentleman had not the
advantage of canvassing the freemen and electors, his
appearance had the effect of huhu:big the Whig candi-
date, Lord Paget, to retire shortly before the time of
nomination, and leave the Conservatives -in undisputed
possession. Such a victory—and without a conteet—
has been gratifying beyond conception.
On the assembly boiag called to nominate candidates
for the representation,
WILLIAM •MociETT; Esq., in a very appropriate, but
brief speech, proposed 'Lord Charles P. P. Clinton ;
who was seconded by Captain VINCENT, R.N.
W. LEE, Eaq., proposed James Macgregor. Esq., as a
proper person to represent the interests of the borough
in the ensuing Parliament, which was seconded by F.
CARTER, Esq., of Deal.
The IliAroß then inquired if any freeman had any
other gentleman to propose, and after waiting some time,
and no one responding thereto, he declared that Lord
Charles Pelham Pelham Clhatou and James Macgregor,
Esq., were duly elected.
Lord CHARLES PELHAM PELIIAM CLINTON then
came forward amidst plaudits or a most flittering cha-
racter. Ho said—Gentlemen, it is with the greatest
satisfaction that I find myself again your representative,
I am douhlyeso,upon the present occasion ; I was in a
bad state of health at the last election, as to be un-
able to address you, or to return you my sincere
thanks the next day for the bailour you had emferred
upon me, and now that I am able to do so, I will.
There were one or two observations made upon that oc-
casion, which it is needful for me to reply to ; I
do not wish to rip up old grievances, nor to disturb the
quiet and peace of the town, bat I must be permitted to
say, I came down here fiveyears after

tion I had received, which

country at large which is being felt at the 'general elec.
tions—(Ciaeers)—for if, up to the present time, we have
only received but few returns, we find the Conservative
interest is gaining ground at railroad speed. The
Noble Lord then referred to the circumstances of Mr.
Grenfell's leaving them, and said this gave him an oppor-
tunity
of coming back, and I thank yon. and thole kind
friends who conducted my election, for the atteeltenent
you then so'very handsomely expressed. Gentlemen, I
feel it my duty to give you some account of iny steward-
ship since that period. I hope I have given you every
satisfaction by the votesl have given, and the attention I
have paid to my Parliamentary duties. I bavo constantly
attended the House, and well considered the subjects
in discussion before I voted. Although I avow myself
a general supporter of my Lord Derby's Government, I
will not give my suppot t to those measures ho or any
other member may introduce, unless I consider them
calculated to promote the prosp6rity of thle great
country—(hear, hear)—and to prove to you that I
am no peaty man, with respeot to the Ramsgate
Harbour Bill, I voted, against the Government, be-
cause I consitlared it beneficial to' this borough so to
do.—(Cheers.) I am not an orator, but if you will
bear with me a little while *ger, I wish to make ti
remark or two about free trade. I have always been
opposed to it, for I do consider that it is not a
system of free trade, bat a'partial measure for the bene-
fit of the foreigner and not for the English; if it were
otherwise, there is no man who would advocate it sooner
than I would.—(Hear.) During my caevaee, I found
you all were sullarieg front its ill effects upon your.
biisinoases; I have ascertained from you that under the
old system, you were accustomed to go into the
country with your goods, sell them, return with the
money, and a fair profit, but new, you often return
with those articles unsold, or if sold, on credit, for
the farmers and their labourers are obliged to do this:
then agein, I have visited several shoemakers sin
this and neighbouring towns, and they too have corn-
planter: to me of the large importation of "French boo's
into this country, and sold considerably under the price
for which they can be sosaufactured by them; this all
proves that tkte system of free trade is injurious in its
effects, and requires an olteratioe, bat at the same time
I shall not advocate any attempts, for en • impost ,
duty on corn; I am glad to too the poet- man enjoy
a cheap loaf, but at the same time to remember the
source from which that cheapness is obtained, viz ,
the land, and I ask, does the agriculturist receive a
remunerative return for the production of that cheap
if my Lord Derby,. or any
loaf? No, and, therefore,
other Noble Lord, introduces a measure to relieve this
important clots of society, without distressing the poor
man, I shall give that measure my cordial support—

at present, is not a free trade, and therefore requires

the DerbyTorlea,, an,d the Chasrman of their Election
Committee—after three dSys' delay and consideration—
his; forvhinaielf and his friends, denied " the slightest'
knowledge. Of , or participation in, the doings of this man,
be he who he may." Ocher more desperate partisans at
Derby exclaim that the whole thing " is a Liberal trick;
Mr. Evans, the Liberal banker, found the money, and
Mr. Moss, a Liberal lawyer, supplied the mau."
• -Neither this general denial nor this retort calumnious
can, however, get rid of the facts as disclosed at the
" man's"expaninatiop bf forp the Mayor and the bench of
Darby. The briber,. "be he who he may," is safe arid
test under lock and kerin the town gaol ut Derby, and
theft, are his captured gihl and memoranda mute in
the Mayor's chest. His assistant, too—the old soldier
who kept watch at the top of the stairs—he also was
taken. And some more rational account will haw; to
be given of the whole transaction than any which has
yet appeared. Otherwise the Tory vote gained at Derby
is. at stake.

. .
The Liberal candidcttes at Derby were Mr. Lass and
Mr. They worth, the late Members, and against them was
pitted Mr. T. B. Boreal!. of Liverpool, who was brought
forward as the pre-eminently Protptant, and religious,
and moral candidate.. There is, unfortunately, a class
of voters at Derby who have always bettl more or less
open to bribery, and theL.c it war resolved to watchclostly
en the-polling day. Thfy Were seen going to an ob-
scure part of thu,: tow;:. and theta dropping one by one
into a small public-house by the back-door; voting,, after
their return thence, for Mr. Horafe. On this intelli-
genee, Mr. Moss, who had proposed Mr. Ho.rsfall, and
who is an alderman of the town, acted promptly.
Having procured the pass-sign and words by which the
initiate gained admittance to these electioneering rep-.
be engaged an active police sergeant, and giving
'Mit cue, dispatched him, of come in plain clothes,
to h
County Tavern, as the place was called. By
h ack•door the sergeant entered; groped his way
thteiremtie tact
up a darkened staircase; and at its top facing
a door came upon a stranger standing sentry.
Affecting to be an elector, the sergeant placed his
finger to his lips. That, however, was not enough; the
guardim required, in addition to the sign, the mystic
words, " All's right, Radford sent me," having been
uttered, the door was opened; in walked the policeman,
and pounced on the offender, sweeping away his gold,
his notes, and his memoranda of payments just made.
The mail made no difficulty or resistance; he admitted
both to the sergeant and to the magistrates, when
brought: up for examination; what he had been about;
and told them he was a bricklayer at Shrewsbury, where
he had gained reputation in similar occupations, and had
been invited over to Derby. N6thing, indeed, could ex-
ceed aid fellow's frankness and candour up to a certain
point. He expressed a low opinion of the Darby pimple;

MIDDLESEX.
The Protectionist party have at length determined
that, there shall be a contest for Middlesex. Their final
scheme is to brie, forward only one candidate, namely,
the Marquis of Blandford, in the hope, no doubt, that
aristocratic influence will prevail against Mr. Bernal
Osborne. A meeting of Tories was held yesterday
morning to determine what course should be pursued,
and it was resolved that the efforts of the Opposition
should be directed to the return of only one Protectionist.
Fifteen hundred pounds is said to have been subscribed
on the spot towards the expenses of the election. The
Liberals must be firm and united. To lose the metro-
