ELECTIoN INTELLIG.
NORTHUMBERLAND (NOR Ill).
On Wednesday Sir George Grey addressed the elec-
tors at Horpeth. It being market day there was a very
numerous gathering. The Right Hon. Baronet spoke
from a temporary platform raised in front of the Town-
hail, in the market place. Lord Ossulston, M.P., and
Lord Lovaine, the opposing candidates, were present
during Sir George Grey's address.
Sir G. GREY said that, when he came forward five
years ago he had then only lately become a resident in
the county. He had, however, for fifteen years, repre-
sented the same constituency, which he lett at the
request of many of the electors of North Nortumber-
land, to uphold the independence of the county, which
was then threatened by an attempt to suppress the voice
of the Liberal portion of the constituency. He ac-
cepted the invitation, and was returned triumphantly at
the bead of the poll.—(Loud cheers.) He now aekeen
and he believed not in vain, for a renewal of their
confidence. When the change of Government took
place some months ago, they were told by Lord Derby
that the issue to be tried was whether tree trade or
protection should he sanctioned by the Parliament here-
after to be assembled. It was then rumoured—between
wo and three months ago—that Lords Ossulston and
Lovaine would again contest the representation. He
(Sir George) prepared to meet them on this field of
battle. Communications, however, were made to him,
in which—though no pledge was given, and he imputed
bad faith to nu one—he was led to suppose that the
representation would be undisturbed. He therefore
religiously abstained, at the suggestion of his oppo-
nents, from asking any man for his vote. About 10
days ago he heard that an active canvass had begun,
and that a requisition had gone forth for Lord Lovaine
to come forward in conjunction with Lord Ossulston,
whose name was inserted in the requisition. He, there-
fore, felt it his duty at once to make his appeal to the
electors; but in addressing them under present circum-
stances he hardly knew what arguments to reply to.
The issue had been completely shifted within the last
few months. The language of the Ministry had com-
pletely changed since they assumed the responsibility of
office. They were beating about now for a new name.
They had abandoned the title of Protectionists, and were
now calling themselves Derbyites.—(A laugh.) Sir
George then adverted to what Lord Lovaine was re-
ported to have stated publicly on Monday at Rothbury
—that he was not prepared to vote for the re-imposition
of a duty on corn; and he understood that Lord Os-
sulston had stated the same thiog, to an individual
elector. If this were so, they all three stood upon the
same tooting in that respect.—(Hear, hear.) Why, then,
did they reek to turn him out? Did they—calling
themselves Conservatives—consider him a darsgerou
man, ready to subvert the Constitution? Ho asked if
they could charge him with ono act of his which had
tended to disturb the good order of society ?—(Cheers.)
Sir George proceeded to point out the benefits accruing
to the whole community from the free-trade policy, and
concluded by asking the electors, if they thought him
worthy of their confidence, to place him again in the
position in which he stood in 1847?—(Loud cheers )
Sir G. GREY having stated his readiness to answer
any questions that might be proposed to him, Mr.
Joseph Hodgson, farmer and shipowner, of Blyth, asked
him if he would vote for the repeal of the malt-tax.
The Right Hon. Baronet declined voting for the repeal
of any particular tax unless it could be shown how the
public charges could be defrayed without it. While Sir
George was replying to this gentleman Lord Lovaine,
accompanied by Mr. Richard Hodgson, the Protectionist
candidate for Berwick, mounted the plattorm, and when
Sir George had concluded his remarks proceeded to ad-
dress the electors.
Lord LOTAINE said he was the youngest person of the
three who came forward to solicit their suttcages; there-
fore he had taken upon himself to reply to certain pro-
positions advanced by his Right Hon. Friend Sir Geo.
Grey. Before he did so he would venture to state the
circumstances under which he had come forward; and
the electors would then be the judges whether his corn-
ing forward had been the proper course for him to take.
He felt he had rather a right to complain on one sub-
ject, and only one. He complained of his Right Hon.
Friend having affixed to his name that of " Dernyite."
—(Laughter.) lie (Lord Lovaine) steered by no man's
opinion. He went by his own, and he did not think it
was fair or right to apply a nickname-to him. If he had
chosen to call his Right Hun. Friend nicknames he could
easily have done so; there were plenty of names he could
have used; but the use of that sort of appellation was
not in accordance with the feeling which ought
to subsist between persons who had no real reason
to oppose each other than what they considered was for
the public good.—(Hear.) He (Lord Lovaine) hod been
taunted with having changed his opinions about free
trade. He had a word or two to say about what really
constituted free trade. But with regard to change of
opinions, he could quote the very terms in whicn the
whole Government of which Sir George Grey formed a
part spoke of a duty on corn. It was the decided con-
viction of that Government that it was is good thing to
lay Bs. duty on every quarter of corn.—(Hear, hear.)
But they changed meet- opinion—and when? Why
when they found they could return to power by means
of the Anti-Corn-law League.—(Cheers.) That League
had sent down to this county voters from Glas-
gow, Edinburgh, Manchester, and he knew not
where—they would be found on the register—to
override the free and independent votes of the elec-
tors. Theso voters had no more interest in the soil
of Northumberland than they had in the soil of the
moon.—(Hear, and laughter.) Every one of these
would vote for Sir George Grey, and nobody else. At
the last election he (Lord Lovaine) was beaten—(Laugh-
ter)—but be did not intend to be beaten this time, and
that they might lay their account for.—(Hear, hear.)
Sir George Grey had alluded to a meeting held at Mor-
peth in the beginning of the year, at which he (Lord
Lovaine) was not present, though he was in the neigh-
bourhood. He knew not how Sir George could imply
that he had not fair play on that occasion, but he did
know that at the very moment when it was arranged
that neither party should move, the whole county was
canvassed by the Whig party from one end to the other.
—(No, no.) He had waited a very long time, to the
great indignation of a vast number of his supporters,
who said, " You'll be beaten if yeu don't
come forward soon." His (Lord Lovairie's) reply
was, " I'd come forward when I'm asked." The
consequence of this was, that at the last moment,
within 38 hours, a requisition containing many hundred
names of electors, of all classes, had been sent to him
inviting him to come forward. The Noble Lord said he
would now go through the points mentioned by his
Right Hon. Friend. He denied that he had abandoned
protection. He believed that a low duty on corn would
not constitute any material increment to its price. The
consumers individually would get their loaves at ex-
actly the same price, and the only person who would feel
the burden was the foreign grower. He admitted that

With regard to free trade, he adhered to that kind of
free trade advocated by the late Mr. Huskisson, in oppo-
sition to the free trade introduced by the late Sir Robert
Peel.
Sir G. GREY apologised to Lord Lovaine for using
the term "Derbyite." He merely meant that that was
the term used by the Ministry in preference to the term
t
"Protectionist." He was glad the Noble Lord was
other
not
a " Derbyite."—(Laughter.) With respect to
personal matter, he would only say that when thehe

sired—and he believed they were sincere—that there
