Soper, mayor TO INES.
The nomination took place yesterday; Mr. Richard
Lord l3cymour was proposed by Lieutenant BOARD-
"I'Ir and geconded by the Ito'. JAMES SUogE,
or, in the chair.

Mr. Charles Barry Baldwin was proposed by Mr. J.
.Ir, P. PHILLIP 3, and
PAGE.

Mr. Thomas Mills wits propnsPd by Mr. C. WEBBER,
and seconded by Mr. JOHN DERBY.
There being no other candidate,

Lord SEYMOUR came forward and said that he was
unable to understand what the opinions of Lord DArby
were. Bat whatevrr they were, he (Lord Seytnr,ur) felt
confident that bona fide Free-traders would have a ma-
jority in the ensuing Parliament. He would not vote for
the repeal of the Maynooth grant, so long as other sects
received money from the State. He should be glad to
see an extension of the franchise, bat it must not be
done by a mere popular movement. He was against
clerical despotism, whether at Exeter or Rome, and
would oppose it whenever he had the opportunity.
Mr. BALDWIN was received amidst loud cheers. He
contended for free trade, bat not one-handed free trade.
If foreigners brought goods to this country they ought to
take English goods in exchange. He had given up his
own principles for the benefit of the people, and should
he now be returned he should continue to advocate the
public good.
Mr. MILLS then said he appeared before the assembly
at the present time as a candidate, but he was confident
that to-morrow afternoon he should be their second re-
presentative. He had not deserted his principles as his
honourable opponent had, but he would maintain the
principle of free trade, which, he believed, tended to the
benefit of all classes of the people.
Show of hands in favour of Lord Seymour and Mr.
Mills. A poll was demanded.

PETERBOROLTGH (CITY.)
TUESDAY, JULY 6.—Tttis morning the three candi-
dates, with their friends, after making processions
through the town, proceeded to the Town. hall at eleven
o'clock..

After the oaths and other formalities had been read,
THOMAS A. COOKE, Esq.. proposed, and T. WALKER,
Esq., second.-d. the Lion. George Fitz william.
WM. PALEY, Esq , M.D , proposed, and Mr. R. HEAD
seconded, the Bon. Richard Watson.
J. G. ATKINSON, EN , proposed, and Mr. A. PERCI-
TAL seconded, Mr. John Talbot Clifton.
A Mr. b'eHOLEY said the preceding gentlemen had ad-
dress the electors; he would also addressed non-electors.
He knew of a working man who would look to the in-
terest of his class; he begged to put in nomination John
Bonnor, of Halifax.

No one seconding the proposition, the nomination fe
to the ground.

The Hon. G. FITZWILLIAM, upon presenting himself,
apologised for not having been able, on account of ill-
health, to pay his respects personally before this day.
The Hon. Gentleman explained the object of the May-
nooth grant and its results and benefits. He thought it
much better to educate Catholics amongst Protestants
than to allow them to go to the continent and be edu-
cated there. He thought uniting the two religions, or
bringing the two classes together, might act as a means
of drawing over Catholics to Protestantism.

The Hon. R. VirsTs irr said—l shall strenuously sup-
port free trade. I have been accuse iof being a Papist,
but am far from such. I am prepared to extend the
franchise. Mr. Watson spoke so feebly as to be partly
unintelligible. a

Mr. J. T. CLIFTON said—Whatever Lord Derby
brings forward for the support of free trade I will sup-
port; and I will support Lord Derby's Government as it
is at present. I was influenced by the late Sir R. Peel
when I voted for Maynooth, and believed him to be a
good example to follow.
A show of hands was taken, and was in favour, by a
large majority, of Clifton.
The proceedings were adjourned till to-morrow (this
day), at eight o'clock A.M.
