SANDWICH ELECTION.
(From the Kentish Gazette of yesterday.)
Two o'clock on Thursday was the hour appointed for the
nomination of two Barons for the borough of Sandwich, Deal,
and Widmer. At that hour the Mayor, James Wood, Esq.,
arrived on the hustings, and the formalities 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
teat a third candidate was in the field may be more readily
imagined than described. The new candidate was James
Macgregor, Esq , 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 inducin 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 contest—
has been gratifying beyond conception.

country at large which is being felt at the general elec
ttons—(Cheers)—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
Noole 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 you and those kind
friends who conducted my election, for the attachment
you then so very handsomely expressed. Gentlemen, I
feel it my duty to give you some account of my steward.
ship since that period. I hope I have given you every
satisfaction by the votesl have giv n, and the attention I
have paid to my Parliamentary duties. I have 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 support to those measures he or any
other member may introduce, unless I consider them
calculated to promote the prosperity of this great
country—(Hear, hear)—and to prove to you that I
am no party man, with respect to the Ramsgate
Harbour Bill, I voted against the Government, be-
es:l.e I considered it beneficial to this borough ao to
do.—(Cheers.) I am not an orator, but if you will
bear with me a little while longer, I wish to mske a
remark or two about free trade. I have always been
opposed to it, fur I do consider tbat it is not a
system of free trade, but a partial measure for the bene-
fit of the foreigner end not for the English; if it were
otherwise, there is no man who would advocate it sooner
than I would.—(Hear.) Daring my canvass, I found
you all were suffering from its ill effects upon your
businesses; I have ascertained from yo u 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 now, you often

into this country, and sold considerably under the price
for which they can be manufactured by them; this all

I shall not advocate any attempts for en impost
duty on corn; I am glad to see the poor 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
loaf? No, and, therefore, if my Lord Derby, or any
other Noble Lord, introduces a measure to relieve this
important class of society, without diseressing the poor
mete I shall give that measure my cordial support—
(Applause)—tor as I have said before, free trade, as it is
at present, is not a tree trade, and therefore requires
the alteration and consideration of the Government.—
(Hear.) I am perfectly free in my principles, am no
party man, I hope never to change those principles,
and whatever measures are brought forward by Ho- 1
nourable Members of the House of Commons, if they
are calculated for the good of this country, I shall
support them.—(Hear, hear.) The navigation and
timber laws also require the attention of the Govern-
ment, for as at present constructed they are injurious to
this country. Your worthy mayor is a timber merehant,
and I have learned from him, that no single vessel has
been cesrtered in this tiler (Stour) since the passing
of this Act. Russia and Norway are receiving
all benefits resulting from that Act instead of England;
foreign timber is held in preference to our colonial, and
why ? Oa account of the injustice of those measures
foreign vessels are °tinged to be chartered to this coun-
try, and what benefit do the Teeple of this country
receive? Who mans those ships? foreigners; upon what
do they subsist chit fly? grease and oil—(Laughter)—
they do not visit our shopkeepers, but so soon as they
obtain the amount of their freight, spend it in their own
country.—(Hear, hear.) In rey address, I made a re-
ference to Popery, a topic greatly agitating the mind
of the people—what I have there expressed I mean, and
will advocate, it is the last thing in the world I should
ever wish to see, via :—the Pope of Rome take the pre-
eminence of the Queen <4 England.—(Cheers.) In the
annual grant of 30,0001. to the College of Maynooth, no
Government was ever more gulled than that of Sir
Robert Peel.—(Hear, hear.) I wish to see a rigid in-
quiry made into the practices of those collegians, for I
ao consider it a most unjust measure to devote
Protestant money to Roman Catholic purposes.—
(Applause.) In conclusion, gentlemen, it is with
the greatest pleasure that I see on my left the
gentleman who has been elected by you as my colleague
---a
man of undoubted talent, and influence in
the commercial interests; I am proud to have such a
colleague, to co-operate with me in promoting all that
we can for the interests and good of this berougb.—
(Cheers.) I will now take my leave of you, again
thanking you for the high honour you have conferred
on me, and that when I
return again amongst you, you
will find I am a man of honour and integrity.—(The --------________
