ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

LANCASTER.

The election of a member for this borough in
place of Mr. W. J. Garnett, who has resigned, took
place yesterday. There were two candidates for the
vacancy, Mr. Fenwick, Liberal, and Mr. Saunders,
Conservative. Mr. Somerville Head, of London,
was nominated on the previous day, but it was an-
nounced that this was,only formal, and that he did
not intend to come forward till the general dissola•
tion. The polling commenced yesterday morning
at eight o'clock. Great excitement prevailed in the
town, and all the principal streets were thronged
from morning till late at night. It is said that
each party bribed pretty extensively, and the prices
ranged from .1.:5 to £lO and £l5 per vote. The
Conservatives were out-generalled by the Liberals.
It is remarkable that nearly all the Roman Catho-
lics of the town voted for the Liberal candidate.
About five o'clock the Mayor declared the result of
the voting. Several thousand persons were assem-
bled in front of the hustings. The result of the
voting at the close of the poll was thus announced,
by the Mayor :

For Mr. Fen wick
For Mr. Saunders
The MAYOR declared that Mr. Fenwick had been
duly elected.

Mr. FENWICK then returned thanks, and said
he should ever support the great principles of
liberality.
Mr. SAUNDERS also returned thanks. For about
ten minutes be could not be heard, the uproar being
perfectly terrific. Eventually he returned thanks
to his supporters, and said it was probable before
long that he and Mr. Fenwiok would be before them
again. Mr. Saunders then insinuated that the in-
fluence end friends of Mr. Gregson, the sitting
member, had been brought to bear against him. (A.
tremendous row here ensued; the screams, shouts,
and uproar were deafening.) Mr. Saunders, amid
all this uproar, said, Gentlemen, why the devil do
you interrupt me? It is not decent, it's disgrace..
ful. You, the Liberal gentlemen, ought to be
ashamed of yourselves; it is devilish unhandsome.
You have made the mob twice as bad as it would.
have otherwise been:' Mr. Saunders then proposed
a vote of thanks to the Mayor; after which he and
the Conservative pArty left the hustings amid hisses.
Mr. FENWICK seconded the motion, and it was
carried unanimously.
The proceedings ended amid uproar.
