ELECTION INTELLIGENCE
NORTHUMBERLAND (NORTH).
DECLARATION OF THE POLL.
ALNWIcE,
c
--MNDAY.—The official declaration f, the
poll for the northern division of Northumberlanao to ok
place here to-day, at eleven o'clock in the forenthn- A
large concourse of people was expected on thq oteasio'h as the election had excited an uncommon degree of in-
terest, and as it was also the day of the anutlaLfipir and
cattleoshow in, the town, but the attendaneeo In'EL gl,
large, was not en great as on the day of ,Matninai', °-e-
-'
wliteh Was probably Owing to the unpropitiouwehrnater
of the day, rain having fallen with little, ielertniesion
during all the morning, end continued till the ptoceed-
ings were over. The windows of the Assembly-room
wore crowded with ladies.
At a few minutes before eleven o'clock ,tae different
candidates appeared on the hustings, each accompanied
by. a large body of his friends, and were received with
mingled cheers and hisses by the crowd in front. Sir
George Grey's reception was marked with great en-
thusiasm,
Shortly afterwards, Air. T. W. °raster, the high-
sheriff, accompanied by 2.1 r. H. W. Fenwick, the under-
sheriff, arrived, and, addressing he had
the crowd, said opened the poll-boos, and cast up the number of votes
for the different candidates, and had found them to be as
follows :—For Lovaine, 1414_,(A. voice—" How many
of them did he bribe?" groans and cheers)—for Lord
Ossulston, 1,33 s—(Cheers anti groans)—and for Sir
George Grey, I,3oo.—(Cheere.) He therefore declared
Lord Lovaine and Lord Orsulston to be duly elected the
two knights of the shire tu serve for the northern divi-
sion of Northumberland in the ensuing "parliament.
Lord LoYAINE then stood forward, and ,*as received
a etwOw ,
with loud groans from one portion of t
h d min-
gled with cheers from the other.
Sir Gnonon GREY begged the crowd to.'' listen to the
Noble Lord.
When silence was at length restored, riki3OTAINE
proceeded to say—Gentleuaen, I believe* . the an-
nouncement which has just been made by thE; High-
Sheriff will give gratification to the greater number of
this assembly.—(Cries of
" No; not here.") While I
and my Noble Friend may be permitted to express our
true, just, and legitimate exultation at the announce-
ment which proclaims us and our cause triumphant on
this occasion, y et I, and I am convinced he, rejoices far
more in the success of the cause in which' we are en-
gaged—(A Voice—" What cause ?")—than in any mere
triumph to ourselves personal]
If you y.—(Noise and confusion,)
would only make a little less noise, perhaps we
should get through our business a little quicker. (Ccn
tinued interruption.) Ido not want to detain you long
I assure you, and if you are impatient at hearing me,
I assure you I am no less impatient at hearing you.
But, as I airs here, allow me to say that if I wanted
any remembrance to moderate the joy which I feel on
this occasion, I should certainly find it in the recol-
lection that I stood formerly in a different positions
but as the mortification which I felt on the last cc-
easier), was moderated by the feeling that I had been
beaten by the best and ablest opponent which the ranks
of my opponents could produce throughout the empire,
so now I ceufess that my joy has moderated by the
knowledge that I necessarily, by my success, deprive the
country of what I am not ashamed or afraid to call the
tried talents and services of the Right Hon, Baronet,.__
(Cheers.) But, gentlemen, I have no doubt that it will
not be for a beg time, and that he and I will have the
pleasure of voting together on subjects for the advan-
tage of the nation.—(Hear.) I have now to address
myself particulsrly, rihile on this epoint, to the Right
Hon. Baronet and his friends, My attention has been
called to certain terms which I appear to have used in
the speech which I made last Monday on these hustings,
I believe that the Right Hon. Baronet will do me the' justice to boar me witness that I have invariably and
on every occasion deprecated any sort of personality,
and that I have endeavoured to infuse as little hosti-
lity as possible into the collision into which I have been
brought with him.—(Cheers and hisses.) And, gentle-
men, I have done so not oaly from the esteem which I
bear for the private character of the Right
Hon. Baronet, but from a desire that when we
leave these huslings we may moot, as 173 have done
before, in private life, on terms of personal friendship
and kindnesse—(llear.) I believe that I need make no
apology or (Inhalation on the subject to the Right Hon.
Baronet himself, but it may be satisfactory to his friends
if I state that the words " false pretences," which I am
reported to have used, does not attach to any action or
speech of the Right Hon. Baronet, but simply to the
fact that he did not, in my opinion, represent truly the
opinions of the mtjority of the county.—(Cries of .'"
He
did; he did.") I have said that I rejoice in the triumph
of the cause of Conservatism, and I do so because I feel
convinced that that cause is identical with the belief that
the institutions of this country aro the gift of a higher
power, and that they ought to be used as the gift of a
higher power, for the iiaprovement of all classes, and
with the due concurrence and respect of all classes of
this great empire, and that they do not depend, as a
too numerous class of politicians opine, upon the mere
expression of the popular cry of the moment—for the
popular cry is notoriously the most fleeting and fickle
of all political elements.—(Cheers.) In all countries
where, instead of being taken, as it has been in this
country, as the mere voice of warning, it has be,a
taken as a leading guide, the result has invariably
been that it has led to a fearful state of anarchy,

after which the proceedings on the hustings terminated.

idol of the party. All the rest of the speakers "paled

After the usual loyal toasts had been duly responded
to,

The CHAIRMAN proposed the healths of the Members
for the eastern division of the country.
The Hon. CHARLES HOWARD briefly acknowledged
the compliment.
Mr. W. MARSHALL likewise responded at some
length.
The CHAIRMAN nest proposed " the Members for the
city,"

Sir JAMES GRAHAM then rose, and was received with
deafening applause, which lasted some moments.
When silence was restored he said—Mr. Howard, Mr.
Monnsey, and Gentlemen,—This is indeed a heart-
stirring spectacle. Ladies smile upon, us, the sun shines
forth upon us, and now again I have the pleasure of
addressing the Blue party of Cumberland united...-.
(Cheers.)
A gallant officer, in returning thanks for her
Majesty's

which he is a member likes the winning side. Now, ono
of the proudest of my public recollections is my official
connexion with that service under the Administration of
Earl
Grey.—(elean)

(Cheers.) And` also, another

only like the wine
thehi victory; and, fighting, they never fail to win.—(AP° p ease.) And they are ready—ay, ready to "fight
and to conquer again and again."—(Prolonged cheering.)
Now, gentlemein I shall in the first piece address a few
words_ to you as to the freeholders of the eastern division
of Cumberland; and I must say that I never on any oc-
casion took part in any political contest with so much
eagerness and so much anxiety as I took my part in the
last election for this division of the county.—(Loud
cheers.) I will tell you why. I have the strongest
feelings towards the family of Froward—feelings of
hereditary attachment and affection. I. therefore, re-
joice in the triumph of my friend, Mr. Charles Howard,
'on this MIS sion. But I know the character of the head
of that noble family well.—(Cheers.) Lord Carlisle
is the least arrogant of men. He is not one who
would be the least disposed to abuse the advantages of
his high station, and attempt to dictate to any county
of so respectable a position as this—(Cheers)—but even
if he had that disposition, he knows enough of the in-
dependence of the freeholders of Cumberland to be quite
aware that any such attempt at dictation would be vain.
—(Loud cheering.) It was therefore an unjust and an
unworthy suspicion that that Noble Earl permitted any
undue interference in the choice of your second mom--
ber.—(Elear, hear.) But to say that Mr. Marshall was
a nominee of Lord Carlisle is the veriest trash that was
ever invented.—(Cheers.) Ho is the most independent
of men..—(Cheers.) There is not a commercial consti-
tuency in England or. Scotland that would not rejoice in
being represented by Mr. Marshall. He might • bav-e
gouo to any place he thought tit. But no. He occu-
pied—and honourably occupied—one of the independent
seats of East Cumberland.O It was attacked, but ho never
thought to flinch from defending it. • He defended it; and
because he was unceasingly and falsely attacked he met
with offers of support which otherwise would not have been
tendered him; and in the district of Penritle—the dietrict
in which be resides, and where he is best known—there
he was strongest, and There he was returned at tho head
of the/ eollo.-(Loud cheers.) Asa freeholder-of Cum-
berland I greatly rejoice in the event just taken -place
in that return.—(Hear, hear.) But I must Vass on, and
turn to the ekction for Carlisle.—(Loud cheers.) Many
kind observations have been made with respect to myself
and the free-trade policy. • have advocated -it to the
best of my ability.--(Cheers.), IL has ,been said,

honour of serving who is now departed—the to whom
this oountry is ander so great an obligation, and whose
name will go down to posterity in. connexion with that

feeling, as I do, the fondest interest in all that is due to
his sacred memory, I say all the feelings of his heart
.would have been satisfied by this appeal to the people
on the present occasion.-(Loud cheers.) He wag of
opinion that this great change was indispensable for the
welfare and happiness of the people. Re himself told

non-electors of Carlisle.—(Cheers.) It is, if ever there
was a popular triumph, a pure popular triumph; and

thing about " one-sided representation.", (.. Hear,"
and a laugh.) This is really a very neve eitscovery to
me.—(" Rear," and laughter.) I remember that in old
times (and Mr. Crackenthorpe will remember) -there
was no groat objection to one noble individual returning
two members, one for Appleby, and another for Haul-
mere; and two members for Cockermouth.—(". Hear,"
and laughter.) Where was the representation—the" one-

now?—(Renewed laughter.) Whst do you say to West

accidental. There is a lop; sided rapresehtation at White-

ther Mr. Hartley'

my old-friends, don't think the representation of Whito

(.' Hear," and laughter.) It, is not exactly fair that
they should be treated with so much -indifference,
It ought to be something like turn and turn about--
(Great laughter)—bat since the passing of the Refoim
Acfsfor twenty year's there has been a one sided repre-
sentation in Whitehaven.—(hear, hear.) And, per-
haps, since one-sided representation has fallen into dis-
credit in high quarters, we shall no doubt see a bold
attempt shortly made at Whitehaven to put an end to it.
--(Cheers.) • But now, gentlemen, it is not only a
question of one-sided representation, but. I was cer-
tainly astonished when I read the account of the pro-
ceedings of the Westmoreland election. Great wonder-
ment was expressed at the suece-es of the Blue' party in
Carlisle. There was something said about spiriting
away, voters. The " man in the moon" appeared, and
the old effect was suddenly reversed.—(Laughter.)
Promises were broken and prophecies falsified,
this was attempted t be and all
o e accounted for in the manner I
have described.-(Laughter.) Gentlemen, something
was said about Derby.—(Great uproar.) '

ing to the side galleries where some ladies were sitting)
—now ladies are present, and therefore I shall vindicate
them from the false assertion of the poet, that—
" Frailty, thy name is woman."
—(Great laughter.) I say that men aro frail—much
more than thu ladies—(Roars of laughter)—and if there

—Frail of Shrowebary is pre-eminently that man.—
(Shouts of laughter and cheers.) wow, gentlemen, on

spect to a certain barber from Shrewsbury—(Greaf

We have reason to believe that he visited Carlisle once
before. He wan in Carlisle at tho election of '47.
(Loud laughter and cheers.) He has been in London
lately, and wo have reason to believe that his mission
will be to Carlisle at the approaching electioa.—(Roars

pose,--(Laughter.) I had never heard of Mr. Frail
before, but I did write to my friends at Carlisle,
and said, "Be on your guard with respect to Mr. Frail

They took the wise precaution of Bonding over to

person of this Mr. Frail.—(Laughter and cheers.) The
alarm was excessive throughout the contest. As the
critical moment drew nigh—that terrible night between
the nomination and the poll—we became exoecdingly
alarmed—(Laughter)—and I tell you again, we watched
diligently the arrival of every train at the station of
Carlisle, expecting Mr. Frail to make his appearance.—
(Roars of laughter.) But ho was so busily occupied
elsewhere that he did not come.—(Laughter.) I know
not whether the claims of Derby or Shrewsbury kept
him away, but he was not forthcoming—(Renewed
laughter)—and wo had no "man in the moon" iu Car-
lisle, for Mr. Frail did not venture to show his face.—
(Roars of laughter and cheers.) So much for undue
influence at our election.--(Cheers.) Now, as to the
question of the spread of democracy. A short time
after Lord Derby's and his colleague's accession to
power, we have Lord Darby talking of the extreme
danger of the spread of the democratic influence.—

ROYAL VICTORIA CLUB REGATTA.
EYDE, TUESDAY.—In consequence of the decision of
the committee on Saturday, rendering void the sailing
of Tuesday for the prize cup of 501., yesterday morn-
leg was appointed for again contesting for it. It was
expected that a larger number of yachts would have
been Entered, but the following only appeared at the
starting point off the pier:—
Vestal, 74 tons—Union-jack, white border.
Princess Olga, 50 tons—White, with•blue diagonal cross.
Benito, 65 tons—Red, white cross.
The course was the same as sailed on Tuesday, viz.,
round the Nub light-ship, passing each time outside the
No-man and Sand-head buoys, round the Calshot light-
ship, and all the four buoys of the Brambles, twice
round, but with this difference, that no time for tonnage
was allowed.
The -Pier, in consequence of the very unfavourable
state of the weather, presented a marked contrast with
the days of last week, and the rain continued to fall
with scarcely any Cessation throughout the day. There
was a total absence of fashionables, and only a few
dettrmined admirers yachting were present to witness
the snort.
At half-past ten o'clock the starting gun was fired,
the yaebts soon got under weigh, and the Vestal speedily
bcgca to show ahead, followed by the Princess Olga,
and lastly by the Bonita, but the latter soon fell a long
way astern. Although they started with a stiff breeze,
yet. the tide being against them, they made bat little
progress, and had to beat up against both wind and tide
the greater part of the round. After seine fine tacking
between the Vestal and the Princess Olga, the first
was completed as follows:
