MARYLEBONE,

. Last evening a public meeting of the electors of this
borough, registered in the parish of St. Pancras, was
held at the Vestry-hall, King's-road, Camden Town, for
the purpose of taking steps to secure the re-election of
Sir Benjamin Hall, Bart., and Lord Dudley. Coutta
Stuart, as Members for the borough.
Mr. W. BILLETT, churchwarden' occupied the chair,
and observed that the coarse which had been pursued by
the present Members for the borough had been such as
to entitle them to the good...opinion of all who appre-
ciated-the benefits derived from en honest and indepen-
dent system of representation. Be therefore hoped that
the meeting would so far acknowledge the previous
exertions of the present representatives as to pass a
resolution approving of their conduct, and expressing a
determination to support them at.the ensuing election.
Mr. T. E. BAKER proposed, and Mr. W. DYKE se-
conded, a resolution to the effect:—" That the conduct
of Sir Benjamin Hall and Lord Dudley Coutts Stuart,
as representatives for the borough of Marylebone, emi-
nently entitles them to a renewal of the confidence of
the constituency within the parish of St. Pancras."
Some discussion took place, in the course of which
Mr. Cooper observed that the conduct of the Hon. Gen-
tlemen as the xepresentatives of the borough, had far
exceeded the estimate he had formed of then, before they
went into the House. _He was one who had formerly
opposed Lord Dudley Stuart at public meetings; but
since he had represented the borough of Marylebone, the
electors could not mention any occasion on which he had
given a vote contrary to their wishes or expectations.
The resolution was unanimously agreed to.
Mr. DONALD FRAZER then moved, and Mr. STOCKTON
seconded, that Sir B. Hall and Lord D. Stuart having
for so long a period faithfully and honourably discharged
their duties to their constituents, this meeting approved
of the principle of returning those gentlemen to Par-
liament at the ensuing election free of expense to them-
selves. The motion was carried, and was followed by a
resolution (proposed by Mr. Hilles, and seconded by Mr
Furnss), that a committee be formed for. the purpose of
ensuring the return of those candidates at the ensuing
election, and to co-operate, with other committees for
that object. It was .then resolved, that a subscription
be opened in furtherance of the foregoing object, arid
the business terminated with a. vote of thanks to the
chairman.
