(Checri.) 'The electors cf Lambeth had at the present time
in the field twO tend/dews who had been their representatives
for several years, awl they had another who held opinions
opposite to them.—(Clients.) The Tory candidate had
thGe2li! proper, in his address to the electors, to praise the
expre'ssionS invil use of by the Queen et the time she met her
council. In another nart of that address, he was decidedly
opposed to the Queen's Government.—( Cries of" No, no— Yes.
yes.") So much for his consistency.—( Cheers.) If he ad-

tend to undermine it.—(Cheers.) Fltlt sLare were many de-
partments in the church which required eltereaion. He would
now call the attention of the electors to some expressions made
use of by the present Tory candidate in his paper' a few days
ago.—( Cheers.) There had been a complaint made that cer-
tttln of the clergy. had been dabbling in politics in their ~orm-
ons, --(Cheers.) Now what d d the Hon. Candidate's pa=
per say to that x Why, that the Bible itself was a series of
political sermons from or,e end of it to the other,—( Great
cheering.) He held it to be most indecent for any Minister
of the Established Church to deliver from the pulpit political
dictaNne. Yesterday, a clergyman not far from the spot on
which they were assembled addressed his congregation, Mid-
i wited them to vote for Mr. Baldwin.—(Cries of " Shames
shame I") It was indecent to do this. (One of the elec-
tore said the clergyman was Mr. Irons of Newington.)
It erne disgraceful to the Church, and he, as a Churchman,
would protest against it. Adverting again to the me'its of
the candidates, he said, if the electors were anxious for Tory
rule, they ought to elect Mr. Baldwin. If they wished For
another Green-bag Committee, the suspension of the Habeas'
Corral Act, the increase and continuance of taxation, they
should elect Mr. Baldwin. If they were anxious the great
aristocracy of this country should carry everything before them,
as they had done for years past, let the electors support Mr.
Baldwin. If they were desirous to prevent justice being done
to Ireland, they could not do better than vote for Mr. Bald-
win.—(Lcral applause, mingled with noise and uproar from
the Tory party.) The Honourable Gentleman then adverted
to the merits of their old and tried candidates. If they
wanted good government, and were desirous that the intc-
tta't of the many should not be sacrificed to the advan-
tage of the few, elect by all means the Right Honourable
C. T. D'Eyneourt. If they were really desirous that Reform
should be carried into effect they ought to elect his Right
Hon. Friend.—(Load applause.) If they would return him.
that gentleman would support a Liberal Administration, and
carry into effect the recommendations of their Queen.—
( Huzza I) He was sure the borough of Lambeth would not
disgrace itself by rejecting their old and tried representatives
to promote the views of a Tory faction.—( Loud cheering.)
It was his duty, in conclusion, to move that the Right lion.
C. T. D'Etyncourt is a fit and proper person to represent the
borough o Lambeth.—(The Hon. Gentleman was loudly
cheered.)
Mr. T. HARDY stood forward to second the nomination of
Mr. Palmer. It was ant hie intention to take up ,'*such of their
time by stating what had been known to the electors
•especting
the merits of the candidates, but ho could not do 4ustice
to the merits of Mr. D'Eyncourt if he did not state tint: 00
the present occasion a person could not be found bettev qua'-
filled to represent the Borough. When he said that, ha was
also an advocate for the other candidate, Mr. Hawes.—
(Cheers, and great interruption from the Tory party.) Mrr.
Hardy, alluding to the interruptiou, said it was one of the
worst proofs of weakness, when he found the advocates
of a party applying noise and violence in the place
of reason end argument—( Cries of " Hear," and cheers.)
He had in his eye a dirty knot of persons, who interrupted
every speaker : but gentlemen who had no other object its
view than the welfare of the borough of Lambeth, would, no
doubt, despise a clique opposed to the liberties of the people
and the rights of the borough. He stood forward to*sup-
port Mr. Hawes as well as Mr. Tennyson. He was sure if
they searched the Kingdom over they would not find two mess
who had done more than those gentlemen for the be-
nefit of their constituents—(Hear, hear, Wand cheers).—
With regard to the other Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Baldwin
he would say a few words. He was told that he was a man off
great respectability in private life, and it might be true that
he was respectable in the private station, and all he would say'
was, that it was a private station from which he should never
have attempted to emerge. It was one thing to discharge one's
private duties, and another to make laws for the country.—
( Hear, hear, bear.) He would be a most mischievous
public man.—(Loud cheers from the Liberals, and great up-
roar from the Tories.) Mr. Baldwin was the proprietor of
the Standard. He (Mr. B.) had for his object—at least his
Paper had for its object—to limit the liberties of the people
as much as possible. It was but the other day that his Paper
opened a proposition for converting the Irish. How m.hy,
by the means of the dragoons.--(Uproar and cheers.) He
(Mr. B.) would repeal the Catholic Relief Bill. He now"
came forward as a candidate for their suffrages, though be and
his prt had done all they could to prevent their having a -vote,
andtaossyithhold the Reform Bill. Mr. Baldwin and his party
were at that moment great destructives, for now that suds
great blessings had been obtained, they would earnestly exert
themselves to destroy those great blessings. But the two
Liberal Member, held the principle that men should not
be oppressed for their religious opinions—they would main-
tain the Emancipation Bill—the Repeal of the Test and
Corporation Act Bill—and all the great measures of to-
leration that had been obtained. They would be just to-

toii destroy and to remove those great blessings.—(Cheers.)
Ile had no doubt that they would return Mr. Tennyson.
Mr. Pete
!teen came forward and said that he should have the
honour of proposing to his brother electors g candidate, who
was not unknown to them, for he had served them faithfully,
honestly, and diligently in the first Reformed House of Com-
mons ; he had served them also in the second ; and he had
no doubt but that the electors would give him an opportunity of
serving them with equal fidelity in the third. He did not
stand there, however, to eulogise that gentleman's public co. -
duct. There is an old proverb, that words are leaves, but
actions arc fruit ; therefore he would leave the Hon. Gentle.
man's acts to speak for themselves. His friends on the left
have been industriously interrupting the proposer and second,
of Mr. Tennyson D'Eyncourt. There vas an old maxim,--
(Interruption.) Are you afraid of hearing the truly.--
(Laughter.) There is an old maxim that we ought to return
good for evil. And therefore he hoped the electors would
feel it due to their honour to hear Mr. Baldwin and his friend,,
with silence and impartiality. He (Mr. Redhead) wished to
find whether that gentleman had talent and ability sufficient
to entitle hint to expect that the electors would adopt hire,
and reject their late representatives.—( Cheers.) lie would
not intrude on their time further, but he would propose to
them, with best wishes for his success, Benjamin Halves,
Esq., their late Member, as a fit and pr per person tr.
represent the.; interests in the House of Commons. He thongt t
the spirit of the age required liberal representatives, who would
secure to the country the passing of liberel measures.—( Cheers. y
Mr. CONEY would speak but for a short time, and therefore
hoped for the kind indulgence of his auditory. In coming for-
ward to second the nomination of Mr. Hawes, he did not think
it necessary for him to praise that gentleman, as his condnee
hid been known to them for the last five years. He asked the
electors, therefore, to exert themselves
on that day and the
morrow, with the same anxiety, activity, fidelity, and perseve-
rance, to secure the return of that gentleman, which he had dis-
played in their service for so long a time.—(Cheers.) Theta
there would be no doubt about the result of the election.---
(Cheers.) The standard of Reform had been raised in the
borough of Lambeth when their two late representatives wore
returned, and he was confident that the standard would not
now be pulled down and the Tory standard elevated in its
stead.—( Cheers.) The borough, he hoped, would never
be reduced to such a state of degradation.—(Cheers.) It
shall not be pointed at as a nest of 'Toryism.—(Cheers.) lie
wou:d, therefore, remind the electors that as those gentlemen
had spent in their service a considerable portion of their valu-
able time, they in return were bound to work for them in
earnest.--( Cheers.) If they worked well that night then•
could be no doubt of their success to-morrow.—(Cheers.)
He concluded by calling for three cheers for the Liberal can-
didates.—( Cheering.)
Mr. EWBANK then came forward to propose Mr Baldwin.
but was met with a storm of hisses and cries of Send him
to Hanover."

A GENTLEMAN of Mr. Hawes's Committee requested a
he ari3g for Mr. Ewbank. It was better to Lear the Tory ar.
gwnents, and there was but little fear that they wAild be well
answered.

Silence being partially procured,
Mr. EwilaNx said he had the honour to propose Charh
Baldwin, Esq.—(Loud groans, with cheers from the Cons, -
v.tive party.) In his canvass Mr. Baldwin had met with a
