ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.
HERTFORDSHIRE
Yesterday being the da .
y appointed for the official
declaration of the poll during the election for this
county, a large assembly, including a great number of
ladies in carriages, collected together to witness the
closing sceno of a contest which had been keenly car-
ried on by both sides. The declaration took place in
the Gaol-field near Hertford, where the ceremony of
nomination bad been gone through about a week pre-
viously.
The High Sheriff having reached the hustings about
twelve o'clock, announced the state of the poll to be as
follows:

Halsey
Meux ... 2,225
•
Lytton
2,1902,21
Puller 9 Trevor
••• 2,043
Riser coot
11:886980
The Bean SHERIFF consequently declared
Mr. Hal-
ey, Sir H. Meux, and Sir B. Lytton to be duly elected
knights of the shire for the county of Hertford in the
evening Psrlimen t.—(Cheers.)
Mr. HALSEY then stepped forward amid applause and
returned his sincere Eberle for the honour the elec-
tors had conferred on him, not merely in choosing him as
their representative, but in placing him at the head of
the poll. They had had a hard contest with worthy
opponents; but the electors had come forward in
defence of the cause for which they fought, and spared
no trouble or exertion to support it.—(Rear, hear.) It
would be for their representatives to use their utmost
eudeevours to maintain that cause in Parliament; but
new the conflict of the election was over, be begged to
extend there the open hand of amity, instead of the
clenched fist of strife.--(Hear, hear.) All his efforts
would be employed to serve them faithfully in Parlia-
ment, and as a representative he should always remem-
ber he represented both opponents and supporters, and
he trusted that no partiality would be discovered in his
conduct—(Cheere.)
Sir H. MEUX said it was his pleasing duty for the se-
cond time to thank them for tho confidence they reposed
in him by returning him as one of their representatives.
—(Applause.) He and his two colleagues had been re-
turned in the way in which Members ought to be sent
to Parliament—unfettered by any pledges.—(Hear,
hear, and laughter.) The constituency had trusted en-
tirely to the principles they advocated, and had felt
confidence in teem on account of the course they had
hitherto pursued. He had no hesitation in saying that,
in looking at the result of the contest as a party
triumph, it was one of the greatest achieved throughout
the country during the elections, for unquestionably
they had had to contend against the best men in Hert-
fordshire on the opposite side. He felt certain that the
exertionserhy,a
they had made would give a majority to Lord
D
Government.—(No, no.) They sent their re-
presentatives to Parliament as independent supporters of
the present Administration; and in his soul he believed
that no man at the present time was so capable of con-
ciliating all classes, or of carrying on the affairs of this
great country, as the Noble Lord now at the head of the
Government.—(Applause and disapprobation.)
Sir B. LITTON, who was loudly cheered, said, that
when he last stood on those hustings it was in prepara-
tion for a severe contest. They were now at the close
of a hard fight; but glorious victory.—(Cheers,) He
stood before in the face of friends and foes, but he
trusted he might now hope that the foes would soon va-
wish, and that only friends would remain.—(Applause.)
It was once said by a prince, who had many enemies to
encounter before he came to the throne, that it was not
for the king to remember the enemies of the subject; and
they might rest assured that their representative would
never remember one single attack made against him
when only their candidate.—(Applause.) As to the
three opponents against whom he had had to enter the
lists, he had never struck at their shields except
With the blunt end of the lance. He bad endea-
voured to place the contest on general political grounds,
and he heartily trusted that he had never embittered the
strife by a single personal attack.—(Applause.) And
now he begged to return to those opponents his most re-
-BP'Setful thanks for having shown the same courtesy to
`eimaelf.—(ltene wed applause.) He recollected tha'
when he was at school he always liked a boy the better
after ho had fought with him.—(Laughter.) He had
he same sentiments now as a man, and he honoured his
opponents the more because, like true Englishmen, they
could not believe even to the last that they could be
beaten.—(Cheers and laughter,) He wished to say a
*ew words with respect to Mr. Trevor, as being the op-
ponent with whom he was most brought into contact,
and whom he had moat cause to apprehend. Though
Ar. Trevor had tailed, it must be some comfort for him
to know that he had gallantly stood by the wishes of his
Party; and it must also be some comfort to his party to
'now that he now retired from the field as much be.
(loCvheedersb. his opponents as by his supporters,—
) He should say but a few words more,
as there were HOW but few materials for a
speech. If he were to touch on political subjects
vhiesry should only revive the quarrel after the battle
had ceased; and he should be ashamed to enlarge on the
cto
of gained, as that might seem to be done with the
view
insulting the vanquished.—(llear, hear.) lie
bad, however to express his deep gratitude for the kind-
ness and zeal with which he had been honoured with
6LlPPort—a support he owed to the concurrence of many
nirtiostlemasutdanee
sbut especially, he believed, to the good
se
intelligence of the majority of the electors.—
(Rear, hear.) Upon the day of nomination they were
honoured by the presence of those whose gentle task
through life it was to calm down the angry passions of
men; and again upon that day, now that the strife was
over, they saw the same fair faces appear, as they
always ought, wherever their smiles could reward the
victorious, or their sympathy console the defeated.—
(Cheers and laughter). It was in their presence that he
felt inspired with a more deep and lively sense of grati-
tude for the honour which bad been conferred on him;
and he should go hence with a still more earnest resolu-
tion so to discharge the arduous duties of political life,
that they might never be ashamed that that day, when so
many bright eyes were around, they had assembled to
hear the name of their new representative for Bert-
fordshire.—(Cbeers.)
Mr. TREVOR. was received with great applause. He
said he stood before them a defeated candidate, yet he
felt it would have been unbecoming in him not to have
availed himself of the present opportunity of returning
his most sincere thanks to that large party of electors
who had honoured him with their support.—(Hear,
hear.) At the same time, he expressed regret and dis-
n),Pointment that those principles which they entertained
in common were not that day in the ascendant. He was
aware that he must attribute his defeat to the strong and
formidable opposition which had been arrayed. against
him by a class of men for whom he felt the highest re-
'Peet, and with whose interests he felt himself boundl up

that they were clecoived, and they would soon
wake up and find the promised subs.itute fee
protection by no means the real thing jute:
Mr. Disraeli was no real maeician, but only a cone
mon conjuror, who might delude them for the mo-
ment,; but he could not &tee the nature of things—he
could not ease the property of the country without bur-
dening its industry, or relieve the rich without taxing
the poor.--(Hear, bear.) And if he attempted to do
that ho would raise such a storm about his ears as
would soon drive him from the Treasury bench.—(Great
uproar.) He could not quite agree in what had been
said by Mr. Trevor, to the effect that the principles of
their opponents had triumphed. The persons, but not
principles, had triumphed. The would it-they-
could•be Protectionists had gained a majority of votes—
(Oh, 013)—and they
knew very well bow and at what
cost that majority had been gained.--(Shame, shame!
hisses, and considerable confusion. Baron Dimsdale—
" That is a most unfair and unjust accusation.") Per-
haps Baron Dinasdale, who called that an unfair accu-
sation, would explain why that poor man at Hitchin re-
fused to take the bribery oath.—(Renewed uproar, and
cries of " Off, off," which prevented the speaker from
continuing his address for some time.) Sir H. Meux
had truly said that their present representatives went
into Parliament unfettered, because they had not dared
to pledge themselves on the one question upon which
Lord Derby had called for a pledge. Therefore he
said, that though the victory to-dey was with their op-
ponents, yet the fruits of victory belonged to the other
side, and the free-trade policy was safe.—(Cheers.)
Mr. HOSANQUET, in expressing his thanks for the sup-
port he Lad receiv-d, observed that he believed he had
lost a few votes in consequence of having in Essex voted
for his old friend Mr. Brainsion.—(Hear, hear, and
laughter.) He voted for Sir E. Buxton and Mr. Brate•
stop; and he was perfectly aware, when he gave that
vote that it was of no use whatever.—(o6, oh!) But
he did not think that he committed any political incon-
sistency—(oh, oh!)—by paying to a gentleman wham
he had known for many years a mere compliment; and
he was of opinion that the voters who had held back ou
account of that circumstance had not acted wisely. To
the liberal end independent electors who bad supported
him he tendered his grateful acknowledgments.
On the motion of Mr. HALSEY, seconded by Mr. TRE-
VOR, thanks were voted to the High Sheriff, after which
the proceedings terminated.
The successful candidates were chaired through the
town.

BUCKINGHAMSHIRE.
AYLESBURY, TRETRSDA Y. —Tne official declaration of
he poll for the county took place this morning in the
magistrates'-chamber at the County-hall In the eh-
,setice of the High-Snetiff (ter, Scott Murray), the Under-
Sheriff (Mr. Acton Tindal) presided. As it had been
generally reported last night that Mr. Disraeli would
unable to attend, the proceedings excited comparatively
little interest, and but few persoes w. re present. Neither
Mr. Dupre, the Cen..ervative Member, nor Dr. Lee, the
defeated Liberal candid:lce, were present. The Hon. C.
C. Cavendish, the Whig Member, accompanied by his
brother, the Hon. R, Cavendish, any Sir H. Verney
entered tho chamber soon after nue- o'clock.
Some time was ecoupi,d in casting up the poll-books,
and at the cenele.iim of this process,
The UNDER SHERIFF said he had to apologize to the
meeting for the atelence of the High-Sheriff, which was
entirely unavoidable, and must not be attributed to any
disrespect to the candidates or the electors. A member
of the High-Sheriff's family—his son—was suffeing
from very severe and dangerous illness, and under theee
circucastanees the High-Sheriff had requested him (Mr.
Tindal) to act for him on that occasion. He found the
following to have been the result of the poll:—Dupi 6
2,000; Disraeli, 1 973; Case 1,403; Lee, 656. Th.
Under-Sheriff then declared that Mr. Dupt6, Mr. Dis.
raeli, and Mr. Caveneish, had the majority of legal
votes, and were therefore duly elected as knights of the
shire.
Mr. CAVENDISH said ho had been doubtful whether
he should attend on that occasion or not, as he did not
know what the course of proceeding might be, but he did
not wish the election to terminate without expressing to
the electors who had supported him his thanks for the
great exertions they hed made on his behalf. He had
neither canvassed nor provided conveyances far his
voters, and the fact that 1,400 electors had recorded their
votes in his favour was most gratifying to him, and
showed that great exertions had been made by his
friends. If the electors had been allowed to vote freely,
he fel; satisfied that he would have stood higher upon
the poll. After the nomination last Friday many of the
electors were desired to vote for Mr. Disraeli and Mr.
Dupre, and to keep their third votes in their pockets;
and he certainly thought this interference went rather too
far. He was afraid, from what he saw in the papers,
that some disappointment had been occasioned to his
friends on Tuesday in consequence of his having left the
town early in the day; but be had understood from Mr.
Dupti that there would be no public demonstration, and
no speechifying at the close of the poll. He did not sup-
pose that Mr. Dupe had inteedtd to steal a march
upon him—(A laugh)—but he found that Honourable
Gentleman had had a dinner after the election, at
which he returned thanks for himself and Mr. Disraeli.
He (Mr. Cavendish) was also afraid the inhabitants of
the town had been disappointed that there was no
" chairing." It had been agreed between Mr. Duple
and himself on Tuesday afternoon that no chairing
should take place, but he would be the last person to
show any slight to the inhabitants of Aylesbury, who
had for some years treated him with the greatest kiwi-
ness, or to subject them to any disappointment. He ob-
served that Dr. Lee had appeared disposed to indulge in
some abuse towards him.—( A laugh.) He could only say
that be did not care anything about it.—(Laughter and
cheers.) Dr. Lee had applied to him a rather carious
name, but he was by no means sure that the doctor. had
hit the right nail on the head.—(Laughter and cheers.)
Again thanking them for their kindness, he begged to
move a vote of thanks to the Under-Sheriff for the able
manner in which he hal represented the digh Sheriff,
the cause of whose absence they must all deplore.
Sir H. 'VERNEY seconded the motion, which was una-
nimou'ly agreed to. and
the UNDER-SHERIFF having briefly returned thanks,
the precpedings terminated.
The total number of electors who polled was 3 092

EAST CORNWALL.
(FROM A CORRESP-NDENT.)
For some mou,hs past a fierce struggle has been car-
ried on for the express purpose of driving Mr. T. J. Agar
Robartes, a Free-tra,ler and a zupporter of the bailer,
from his seat as one of the representatives of the eastern
division of this county. The whole strength of the nun-
atituPtiey has been reused to the conflict, and at nine
Polling places " war to the knife" has been the cry, and
the victory has been as glorious as decisive in favour of
" Robartes, Free Trade, and the Ballot."
A fairer trial of these weighty matters could not have
been afforded. Kendal, a brawling Protectionist, has ob-
truded himself unworthily upon the constituency at the
expense of his " dear friend" Carew. who is a gen-
tleman of manners and of property, but whose want of
firmness has lost him his seat.

The excitement has been as great as when the Reform
Bill was the war-cry of the kingdom. The number of
actual voters assembled at each of the leading pollin4
places was considerable, but the masses assembled were
not electors. They were Free-traders, whose personal
well-being depended on the success of the great princi-
ples avowed by Robartes, and the:e evinced no common
interest. The following were the numbers at the close
of the poll:
