nation of Mr. Butler.

No other gentleman having a sndidate to propose, the
Sheriff called upon
Mr. CLAY, who said the two old factions of Whigs
and Tories who had so long gov arned, or rather misgo-
verned this country, were nearl y worn out, and had no
.strength for the commission of ' further mischief. An-
other party was rising up to per form these duties which
the old factions wero no longe) r capable of performing.
The time had arrived when the people should return to
Parliament men pledged to sui loom the people's rights,
to replace in the House of Come is ins those two old worn-
out factions, and to form a pt iople's party.—(Cheers.)
To this party he would be found, adhering.
Mr. JOHN BRAMLEY MOORE was not not a thick and
thin supporter of Lord Derby, but ho should give him
his support generally. Ho wou ki not re-impose a duty
on corn, but he would take such, steps as would afford
relief to the suffering interests n`the country.
Lord Viscount GODERICH enle red into an explanation
of his political principles, expressing himself strongly in
favour of free trade, an extensior of the franchise, vote
by ballot, and triennial Parlianae nts.
The Hon. CHARLES LENNON" BUTLER claimed the

vastly more thus those for their opponents, probably
fifty to one. The Sheriff declared the show to be in

BEDFORD.
The nomination of candidates for the borough of Bad.
ford took place yesterday.
Mr. NASH nominated Mr. Henry Stuart.
Mr. ROBERTSON seconded the nomination.
• __

Mr. STUART reminded the electors that it was the
fourth time he had solicited their support, and the fourth
time he had spoken to them from that green. Respect-
ing the question of fres trade, it was a settled question,
as the country was now in a greater state of prosperity
than it was before.—(Cheers.) The Maynooth endow.
ment would meet with his most decided opposition.
Mr. GIBSERD, a solicitor, then rose and nominated
Mr. Anstey. _ _

Mr. RUTHERFORD seconded the nomination.

Mr. ANSTEY stood there upon the great principles of
purity of election and radical reform, enjoying the
satisfaction of knowing that an extension of the suffrage
and the ballot were indispensably necessary to secure
the full liberty and happiness of the people. He was
for short Parliaments. The property qualification was
unjust. He said he declined all religious controversy,
the Church of Rome was established upon a narrow basis,
and he had brought upon himself the hatred of bigoted
men in that Church in tho course he had taken upon
the Maynooth question. He would advise them not to
be deceived by such promises as, we shall vote for an
inquiry, for no inquiry can take place except by
i a visi-
tation conducted by the Roman Catholic bishops into the
religion and discipline of the establishment, as the juris-
diction was left in the hands of the visitors, who were
Roman Catholic bishops. It was a pure sectarian in-
stitution, and a wretched one.
Mr. BARNABD, a banker, then nominated Mr. Whit-
bread.
Mr. LEVINE seconded the nomination.
Mr. WHITBREAD, upon attempting to speak, was re-
ceived with marks of disapprobation.- We could only
now and then catch a sentence. - He was understood to
say b
doctrines of Popery. He would vote against fixed
question.—(Cries of You ought
trustees.—(Loud cries of " You said you would not.")
t ttionHe confessed when he first came before them he had not
fatly consideredoud
then.") lie said he bad told every elector he would Loud
vote against it.—( cries of " You have not.")
The mayor, declaring the show of bands in favour of
Messrs. Stuart and Anstey, a poll was demanded on be-
ewendeavourh e qu
to
do away with the damnable
be-
half of Mr. Whitbread.
