LAMBETH ELECTION.
(THIS DAY.)
'The various committees of the respective candidates
made their 'appearance on the hustings st Kennington-
common precisely at ten o'cic,elt. Shortly before that
hour struck bands of music and processions, belonsibg
to the three candidates, entered the ground, and by the
time the chair was oken there were about 1,000 persona
present.

- Mr. H. ()snow, the returning officer, read the pre-
cept. when the three candidate, were duly introduced.
W 3.1, CORRY, Esq., proposed Mr. D'Eyncourt, which
proposition was seconded by Wre. KNOTT, E.q.
Mr. JOHN DOULTON proposed Mr. Williams, and Mr.
J. A. LYON seconded the proposition.
MY. BERINCTON. of Camborsvell, proposed Mr. Wil-

_
kinson. and Mr. JOHN SEWELL, surgeon, seconded the
proposition.
The gentlemen who proposed and seconded the can-
didates were, as usual, greeted with cheers and hisses.
Loud cries of " No coolition, let Williams and D'Eyn-
court stand alone," rent the air whilst the iris nth of

the two first-named candidates w(re advocaiag their
respective claims.
Mr. D'EYNCOURT, on making his appearance in front
of the hustings, was received with loud cries of "Shame

—turn him back," from one side, and cheers from the
other. After considerable trouble, order was to some
extent restored by Mr. D'Eyncourt giving way, when
Mr. SEWELL resumed his addre,:s in favour of Mr.
Wilkinson.

Mr. D'EYNCOURT again made his appearance and
was received in the same manner as before. The noise
at length became so great that it was with difficulty
a single word could be heard from the Hon. Gentle-
man. " How much did you give to the sufferers by
the cholera in Lambeth?" was shouted by the crowd.
Mr. D'Eyncourt, however, continued to address the
meeting, denying the allegations that bad been made
against him. Mr. D'Eyncourt for nearly an hour con-
tinued his address, amidst the most discordant sounds
of cries of " Mrs. Okey's bill," and " How about the
poor widow?"

- Mr. WILKINSON claimed the indulgence of the meet-
ing, but without the least success. Crieg of " U.P.
in place of M.P. will be your initials now," and other
similar expressions, were all that could be heard by the
persons on the hustings. At length
Mr. WILLIAMS came forward, and was hailed with
cries of "No coalition." As soon as silence was re-
stored, the Hon. Gentleman proceeded to remark that he
had now served them two years, and at the end of his
first year's stewardship he came forward like an honest
man to give an accouns of what he had done whilst in
the House. They had been pleased to continue his ser-
vices, and, with the exception of Mr. Hume, no one had
done more than he had to protect their pockets. He
next laid before the meeting the line of conduct he
had pursued in the House, and added, that if they
would do him the honour of again returning him to
Parliament, he would do all he could to benefit their
important borough; but if they thought he was not &-
serving of their support, and they told him so, he would
at once retire.—(Cries of " Why don't D'Eyncourt?")
At the conclusion of Mr. Williams's address loud cries
were raised of " Williams and Wilkinson for Lambeth,"

Mr. WILKINSON, on coming to the front of the hust-
ings, was received most enthusiastically. He appeared
before them in that position that the electors of that bo-
rough might have a choice in appointing their own re-
presentative. If he should have the honour of represent-
ing them in Parliament, he should do all he could to ad-
vance the interests of such a great borough. Ho next
addressed the meeting in similar terms as he advanced
the previous evening at the Victoria Theatre, and con-
cluded by saying if he was returned he hoped his conduct
would never give them cause of regret for the choice they
had made.

Mr. ONSLOW then called for a show of hands, and
declared the majority to be in favour of Mr. Williams
and Mr. Wilkinson.
A poll was then demanded on behalf of Mr.
D'Eyncourt, which is to take place to-morrow.
Mr. WILLIAMS and Mr. WILKINSON next addressed
the electors, and craved their support at the poll.
Mr. D'EYNCOURT next made an attempt to address
the meeting, but was received with shouts of disappro-
bation. He was sure the poll would tell a different tale
to • morrow.
A vote of thanks to the returning officer closed the
proceedings.
