U - MOSES and SONS have a duty to discharge to them highly
gratifying ; they have to acknowledge an amount of patronage on
their Establishment and its branches which exceeds the possibility
of enumeration, and fully demonstrates the established convic-
tion on the public mind, of the superiority of their system of
Business, and the general excellencies of their Goods. This in-
crease of public favour will never be disregarded by E. MOSES
and SON, but will form a stimulant to still greater efforts, where
possibility will permit, and to fresh enterprises where these can
procure the best, the most fashionable, and the most seasonable ma-
terials for every description of Dress. with which they always asso-
ciate the most artistic, the neatest, and soundest workmanship.
The appointment of a distinct class of Artists to each style of
attire, has produced a fit universally famed for correctness and com-
fort, and in the manufacture of Garments for every station and pro-
fession in society ; for Sportsmen, Juveniles, and Mechanics ; the
most unflinching regard will continue to be paid, the highest order of
materials and workmanship, and the lowest possible charges will
furnish additional attractions for thousands. A degree of patronage
unparalleled has been bestowed on the Ready-made Clothing Depart-
ment, which it has always been their ceaseless assiduity to render
superior to that of any Establishment in the Kingdom, that every
Person may be supplied at any moment to them convenient, with a
Style of Attire agreeable to their wishes, displaying the first order of
Materials and Workmanship, accompanied by a Fit superior to the
Bespoke Goods which may be had elsewhere. The Hat and Cap
Branch has exhibited an impetus in the progress of Business, which
has rendered it the Crowning Emporium for all the subjects of our
Mighty Empire.

The-Ladies' and Gentlemen's Hosiery Section, on which the great-
est care, industry, and experience has been employed, has been at-
tended with unprecedented encouragement; and the world-wide
connection of E. Moses and Son have rendered it the Depot for every
novelty through every season.
During the past year, a new field has been opened for enterprise
and industry ; a source of wealth has been discovered which has
superseded the calculations of the most sanguine, and has proved
the revelations of truth more astonishing than fiction ; though Gene-
ral Outfitting has always been an important branch of E. Moses and
Son's business, and has through a series of years been available for
Emigrants to all parts of the world, yet the new requirements of a
large portion of the population have been met in the most compre •
hensive manner by the Outfitting capabilities possessed at the Estab-
lishment of E. Moses and Son; their Wholesale business affording
facilities of the most momentous order, and the unity of the largest
stock of Hosiery, Boots and Shoes, &c., Sic., ever known, have proved
in the highest sense advantageous : their thorough and practical ac-
quaintance with the goods required for any voyage or climate, and by
every class of Emigrants, Ladies or Gentlemen; their readiness to
afford assistance, and gratuitously to give all necessary information
to all intending Emigrants, has given a popularity to them as Out-
fitters, which has eclipsed all others; and that every convenienee
might be possessed by Emigrants, they have kept a separate Depart-
ment for Outfitting, conveniently communicating with the other sec-
tions of their great commercial Emporium.

Now entering upon the Empire of the year 1853, it Is the intention
of E. Moses and Son to give each branch of their daily increasing
trade their minute, practical, and undeviatinz attention that :their
Establishment and Its branches may continue the national deposi-
tories of novelty and fashion, the recherché of taste and skill ; the
magazine of articles of utility and comfort; the assemblage of every
order of Goods required at home or abroad ; that punctuality and
attention to all commands and that quality and economy in every
class of articles may give them the opportunity, and the pleasure of
extending the benefits of their great commercial facilities to all
classes throughout the kingdoms of the world.
Indulging the warmest hopes of being able, as the year progresses,
far to exceed their professions, and to help on the comfort of all who
remain at Home, and all who Emigrate, E. Moms and SON earnestly
and cordially wish all their Friends and Patrons A HAPPY NEW
YEAR.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
public against imposition, having learned' that the untradesman-like
falsehood of "Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's
the same concern," has been resorted to Ia many instances, and for
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have.

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD.

The 'election rendered • necessary by the 'vacation of
Mr. Gladstone's seat, having been fixed for yesterday,
the nomination of candidates took place accordingly in
the Sheldonian Theatre, at twelve o'clock. About 200
members of the UniVersity attended.
The Rev. Dr. HAWKINS, Provost of Oriel, then rose,
and, in a short Latin speech, proposed that Mr. Glad-
stone, the late representative of the University, a states-
man of the highest abilities and accomplishments, illus-
trious for his genius and public services, and a man of
spotless private life and conduct, endeared to them all by
their long and familiar personal knowledge of him, be
again chosen to fill the distinguished trust to which he
had been but recently elected by a majority of the aca-
demical suffrages. (Loud cheers.) gis opinions on the
various questions of the day were so well known to them
that he need not detain them by any lengthened exposi-
tion. The objects to which they were directed might
be briefly described as the preservation of the best fea-
tures of ancient custom, the gradual and effective im-
provement of our institutions by the removal of defects,
and the maintenance and extension of the dignity of the
University. (Cheers.)

Mr. GEORGE ANTHONY DENISON, M.A.., said he felt
bound to offer another candidate to the suffrages of the
electors, in the person of Mr. Dudley Perceval, of Christ
Church, a gentleman who had never done anything to
dim the lustre of the name he inherited from his father
(the late Hon. Spencer Perceval) and who was noted for
the warmth of his opposition to the errors and corrup-
tions of the Romish Church and the Papal tyranny.
He regretted [that a sense of public duty made it incum-
bent on him to call upon them to reject one who had
already represented them, but the nature of the present
crisis made it of paranaomit importance that the Univer-
sity should be represented by a man whose most strenu-
ous efforts would be given to the maintainance of public
order, the safety of the Church, and the advancement
of its interests. Under these circumstances, he could
not scruple to call upon them to return Mr. Perceval.
The polling commenced at half-past one o'clock and
was continued until four. Atthat hour the numbers

were.

The poll was opened to-day at 10 o'clock.
WOL VERRAMPTON.
Yesterday the Right Hon, the Judge Advocate pre-
sented himself to his constituents for re-election. At 11
o'clock in the morning, the electors quietly walked down
to St. James's-square, where the hustings were erected,
and soon afterwards Mr. Villiers, accompanied by his
colleague, Mr. Thornely, and
most of the influential
residents in the town, came down from the Swan Hotel
in procession to the hustings, and
without flags, or ban-
thoroughly constitutional
of any kind, the business

JOHN WYNN, Esq.- the Mayor, read the precept, and
caused the usual forms to be gone through, after which
E. B. DmorecK, Esq., an
inironmaster and county ma-
gistrate, placed Mr. Villiers nomination.
Mr. Alderman HENRY Wmata seconded the nomina-
tion.

No other candidate being proposed, the Mayor de-
aclmaridedsttthhee
hHeoanriieCsthacrhleeesrsP. elham Villiers duly elected,

Mr. VILLIERS immediately stepped to the front of the
hustings and was received with the heartiest cheering.
The hon. and learned gentleman proceeded to address
the assemblage. He said—l assure you that it is with
no ordinary feelings of gratefulness and satisfaction that
I stand before you to acknowledge ray sense of the act
which has just taken place. It is not merely the pride
I feel that for the sixth time you have returned me as
your representative, and for the fourth time without op-
position, but because you have thus sanctioned, by the
unanimous expression of your approbation, the course I
have ventured to take in becoming a member of the Ad-
ministration which has just been formed. I can say to
you with perfect truth that I did not accept office with-
out the fullest consideration of your opinion andinterests,
and feeling that I was not actuated by any dishonest or
unworthy motives, or doing anything inconsistent with
my private conduct, or the promotion of those principles
which we have at heart. I felt no anxiety in having to
appear here before you. I did nor think that although
I presented myself in a new character, you would think
I had lost all the character that I had before. (Hear.)
If a member of Parliament goes over to the Government
and gives up all his old opinions for the sake of office,
it is one thing —if the Government comes over
to the member, it is a very different thing ; for I must
tell you that I have found that independent members are
usually right and the Government is usually wrong.
Now, I can truly say that in taking office under the cir-
cumstances, I have not abandoned my opinions to join
the Government. I have forfeited none of the principles
I professed when you first sent me to Parliament; I

have maintained them, and I intend to abide by them.
(Cheers.) In my address to you I have endeavoured to
explain the motives by which I was actuated in accept-
ing office, and, so far as I could, to assist you in forming
your own opinions on the subject. (Hear.) I told you
that on your great subject the present first mi-
nister was what Lord Derby calls a man of extreme
opinions ; ,he was for the total and immediate repeal of
the corn law ; and that at the time he was a member of
Sir Robert Peel's Government, he was the most sincere
supporter of the commercial policy of that great states-
man. (Cheers.) He has not shrunk from his principles
since that time, but he has said that the character of the
law which repealed the corn law was precisely that
which I gave it in my resolution, and was wise and
beneficial. (Cheers.) You agree in what the Earl
of Aberdeen has said, that there can be no sound
Conservatism that is not based on a Liberal policy ;
that is a principle which I think will be acceptable in
this town. (Cheers.) You are generally here for prin-
ciple, not for party. You will agree with him that the
country is sick of mere party cries and party distinctions,
and that it now requires a government established on a
broad basis, having its efforts directed to the carrying of
those principles and those reforms which are consistent
with the wants of the age. (Cheers.) For my part I
like that reading of conservatism which makes it consist
in a liberal policy ; and the practical proof which he has
afforded of it in shaking hands with Lord John Russell,
and seeking his assistance to maintain firmly the great
measures of liberty already passed, and farther to extend
the civil and religious liberties of the people—(cheers)—
such a government, I think, should be encouraged.
(Cheers.) - Again,. it looks well that;V6shottitkge•-to
members representing large constituencies, such as Mid-
dlesex, Southwark, Leeds, Nottingham, and Wolver-
hampton—(cheers)—and lie asks them to join him in his
administration. (Hear, hear.) That is not like the case
of a man abandoning his opinions for the sake of joining
a government, but rather putting an independent mem-
ber in a position where he could not be justified in re-
fusing to join such an administration, and assist in it to
accomplish what good it was possible for the people.
(Loud cheers.) Lord Aberdeen's administration, then,
I believe is worthy of a fair trial, for it will be composed
of men who wish well to liberal institutions, and promise
to pursue a liberal policy. Such a' government may do
great good, and, if strong enough, save us from those
repeated changes which is at all times so hurtful, espe-
cially to the trade of the country. I indeed go farther,
and consider this combination of men under Lord Aber-
deen as a great triumph to the popular cause. It shows
that those liberal principles which we have so long pro-
fessed were based on truth, and that truth has prevailed.
I believe that changes of opinion have taken place
amongst the members of the Conservative party from
honest conviction ; that they have learned to appre-
ciate the character of the people better than they did,
and that they have become convinced that the people
have a due regard for the rights of others, that they re-
spect the rights of property as much as their rulers.
They now understand the principles on which this
country should be governed, and that it is never so safe
and peaceful as when the people are free to act, free
to think, and free to trade as they please ; and that
the country is never so secure as when the people
are governed justly and liberally. (Cheers.) The day
was, when the advocates of free-trade were looked upon
as democrats—as persons who ought to be avoided ;
since that time eminent statesmen have been convinced
of their error, and now that commerce is unfettered and
its blessed effect felt, it is said that a greater and a salutary
change has been wrought in the condition of the people
and in their circumstances than by any measure that was
ever passed—(cheers)—and so convinced am I of the
truth of that, that I shall be grateful to the very last
hour of my life for having been permitted to take part
and to assist in that wonderful change. (Cheers.) It has
produced indirectly great results ; it has had the effect
of breaking up parties, and that is a good thing ; it has
helped to get rid of one administration, in reference to
which I will say nothing ; and it has brought together
a set of men of talent, who have formed an administra-
tion presented to you, I suppose I may say, as a Christ-
mas-box. (Laughter.) A Cabinet in which there are
some of the most experienced statesmen of our time
—men who have been high in office at one period or
other throughout their lives—men who have differed
much before, at last have come to the conclusion
that they can act together, if they act on the prin-
ciple of free trade, religious equality, and liberal policy
generally, extending the rights and the privileges of
the people. (Cheers.) And this at a time when it is
said to be more difficult than ever to govern the country;
if that is so, it affords all the greater matter for congra-
tulation. (Renewed cheering.) For my part, I feel
satisfied with Lord Aberdeen for what he has said—that
there can be no sound principle of Conservatism that
does not consult the interests of the people at large ;
and I am grateful to him especially for the desire he has
manifested to gain over his Conservative friends to that
view, and to aid him in carrying on the government.
(Cheers.) Now, we start fairly with the new govern.
ment. I can't tell you what the measures of the govern-
ment will be. I do not expect them to work miracles
—(laughter)—l think their predecessors taught them
that before—(renewed laughter)—that was the rock
which Mr. Disraeli split on. There are limits, you
know, to human power ; and his budget was on the
other side those limits. He wanted to please everbody,
and he shared the fate which commonly awaits a man
so disposed. (Great laughter, and cheers.) Mind, I
am not going to say anything disrespectful of the de-
parted ; I think they did great good by coming in.
The air is clearer now in consequence ; the political
atmosphere is more healthy, and a good many of them
made a tolerably clean breast of it whilst they were
in. (Much laughter.) I shouldn't have cared if they
had been in longer ; I didn't want to turn them out.
(Continued laughter.) They went to the country—they
dissolved the House of Commons ; and I simply wanted
them to explain what in their idea the appeal to the
country had resulted in. Now, it struck me, in bringing
about that explanation, that if the people were better off
than ever they were, there could be no harm in calling
the free trade measure " wise and just ;" and that's all
I did. (Roars of laughter and cheers.) I was told that
I hurt their feelings, although they could'nt help ad-
mitting the fact. (Cheers.) You remember the debate
in Parliament on the subject ; but I don't know whether
it was intelligible all this way off. (Laughter.) Now,
I will explain it if I can. It happens that the friends of
the late Government have a great objection to the Man-
chester school of politicians, as they call them, so
although they were going to admit the facts for which
I was contending, they refused to accept my words, as
they would have done any other words of mine ; but
" all's well that ends well," and we did get a full
recognition by the legislature that the recent com-
mercial changes had been beneficial, and that that policy
was not to be changed. (Cheers.) Now with reference
to the government, I am as glad as you will be to
find that there is to be no shrinking from the con-
sideration of any of those great questions which true

The essential object of this treatise is to point oat the fearful
consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which
have produced more misery in Youth, degradation iii Man.
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Th e treatment
adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated
schools of medicine both in this country and in continen tai Europe.
The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here connees,ed under
the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few
egally qualified physicians who have devoted their wb ole and un-
divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short,
every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the disease ,a incidental
to the generative system, and the means of immediate re lief and
ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional rep utation
of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguish ed :medical
and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient
guarantee that those who may place themselves under t is care
will, in every instance, meet with that delicate considerati on and
nviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment o f these
ases

liberal politicians have always had at heart; the subject•
of parliamentary reform is to receive the fullest conside-
ration ; there is an admission that our present system of
representation requires to be remedied ; and I think you
will agree with me in this—that the people of this coun-
try have never been in favour of violent changes ; they
have always been content with an admission of the evil,
and that the best remedy shall be applied by those who
have the power. (Cheers.) -It is absurd to think that
a small constituency with a hundred or two electors
should send a couple of members to parliament, and that
a town of fifty thousand inhabitants should send only
the same number—(hear)--and is it not offensive to the
moral sense of Englishmen, that the shameful system of
corruption, intimidation, and bribery should still exist ?
—that men of wealth and station should continue to have
the power to corrupt and to terrify those over whom
they have influence, for the sake of a vote ? Such things
can no longer be permitted to continue. (Cheers.)
With reference to the ballot as a remedy, I can only say
that I do not consider it a perfect system, but it is at
least the best remedy that has been devised, and it is for
those who object to it to show a better. (Hear, hear.)
At the present time, a vote is a curse and a nuisance to
many men ; the tradesman has his landlord and his cus-
tomers teasing him out of it, till his franchise becomes a
source of misery rather than anything else. (Rear,
hear.) There must be a remedy to this. (Hear, hear.)
Now, in the interview I had with Lord Aberdeen I
pointed this out to his lordship ; I told him, too, that I
had voted for the ballot before, and that I should do so
again, and his reply was, " that he should always re-
spect the honest conviction of any one one who did him
the honour to join his Administration." (Much cheer-
that ng.) With reference to education, believin as I edro.

THE ABERDEEN CABINET.

(From the 21forning Herald.)
Our great novelist, in his "Antiquary," has give,
us an instance, which no reader is likely to fo
of the policy of so constituting " a firm" as t o,
sent different faces for different occasions. 4, isM,, •
the weather is fair the smooth-faced partner is sible, all smiles and plausibility ; but when It •to be done, the bull-dog member of the &leo '• „, forth, fierce, loud, and unrelenting,
at
e •
The firm of "Aberdeen, Gladstone, -et
Molesworth, and C 0.," is now experi
one special advantage of such an admit
By so constituting itself as to have a repre-
sentative of nearly every opinion, it contrives
to excite the hopes of all classes, excepting
the true Conservatives. Some ultra igh Church-
men still maintain a favourable opinion of the
Administration, on the ground that Mr. Sidney-
Herbert, the I.3uke of Newcastle, and Mr. Glad-
stone are in the Cabinet. The Whigs must, of • course, support it ; for are not eight members of the
Cabinet taken from their side of the house ? The
Radicals at first grew sulky, but the concession of
a seat in the Cabinet to Sir W. Molesworth, and of
two minor places to Mr. Villiers and Mr. sborne
soon conciliated them. The Irish Brigade vowed
that they would oppose every imaginable Govern-
ment ; but Mr. Sadleir, the broker of the Brigade,
was soon seduced by a lordship of the Treasury,
and Mr. Keogh had the offer of the Irish Solici-
tor-Generalship ; while Mr. Monsen, who scarcely
knew the difference between a howitzer and a car-
ronade, was made " Clerk of the Ordnance."
Now, if the object of all these gentlemen be
merely the very simple one of providing comfort-
ably for themselves, we shall not deny that they
have succeeded. If all the political strifes of the
last 30 years have really turned, as Lord Aberdeen
says, upon a " distinction without a difference,"
then, in truth, these politicians have succeeded in
grasping the substance while merely giving up the
shadow. But we strongly doubt if Englishmen
can be made to believe, in a moment, that all their
public contests for a quarter of a century have
turned upon mere words and phrases ; and that
nothing solid was ever-at stake.
Now if there really was a substantial reason for
the desperate struggle niade.by Lords-Aberdeen and
Lincoln, Sir James Graham, and Messrs. Gladstone
and Sidney Herbert, in 1841, to turn Lord J. Rus-
sell out of office, and if between the Radicals and
Whigs there have been differences involving im-
portant interests—then we must regard the sudden
coalition of all these parties as something founded
on a great practical delusion. All the heretofore-
opposing but now-concurring parties assume that
they each individually surrender no principle by
joining the Cabinet. But, if we look a little closer,
we shall find that each party assumes, that although
it surrenders nothing, those who coalesce with it
do virtually surrender much. Thus, Sir W. Moles-
worth and his friends assume that Lord Aberdeen
and his friends, who have been called. high Tories
until of late, and who call themselves Conservatives
now, must have intended to approximate towards
Radicalism, or else they would never have asked
the aid of such Radicals as Sir. W. Molesworth and
Mr. Osborne. And in like manner we find some
Oxford Tractarians hoping that the new Ministry
will favour the Church, for if not, how could such
men as Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Sidney Herbert
have joined it ?
All these hopes appear to us to be delusive. We
have no doubt that nearly all who thus argue will
be disappointed. If there had been any large con-
cessions of principle, the fact must have oozed out.
This not being the case, we have a right to assume,
or rather we must believe, that each member of the
Cabinet, on joining that singular assemblage, joins
it much the same man that he was before.
But if so, what is the result ? Sir W. Molesworth
remains a ta,dical, but he is the only Radical in a
Cabinet which contains seven Whigs and five
Peelite Conservatives. What will his Radicalism
effect there ? What was the main charge brought
against Lord Derby's Cabinet ? That the members
of that Administration did not attempt to carry out
their own principles. Well, Sir W. Molesworth
joins a Cabinet of which he InoVes beforehand that
it will not, and cannot carry, out his principles.
And the same thing may be said of nearly the
whole of the members of the Cabinet. Nearly every
man has his own peculiar views—as much his own
as Protectionist principles were properly those of
Mr. Henley, Mr. Walpole, and Sir John Paking-
ton. Yet all these must be sacrificed. Three or
four members of the Cabinet are Tractarians ; but
there is a majority in the Cabinet against Trac-
tarianism. Five or six are opposed to the
Ecclesiastical Titles Bill ; but there is a majo-
rity in the Cabinet against submitting to Papal
aggPession.
But, perhaps, some of our readers may be in-
clined to say, on this view of the matter, " Well,
then, according to your account of the case, the
Cabinet is a pretty good one ; at least, one not
likely to do much harm."
We answer, that so far as their own private judg-
ment goes, we might trust the five members of Sir
Robert Peel's Cabinet of 1841, with such Whigs as
Lord John Russell, Lord Palmerston, and the
Marquis of Lansdowne, not to plunge into any
very desperate courses. But the question is, 'not
what their judgments might dictate, or their in-
clinations prompt them to do, but what their ne-
cessities may force them to consent unto. The
Reform Bill of 1831, as everybody now knows, was
not the measure at first devised, but an enlarged
edition, enforced from the Whigs by the necessities
of their position. And now, while the present
Cabinet befools Sir W. Molesworth by leaving him
at liberty to vote for the ballot, while his twelve
colleagues will all vote against it, they expose
themselves to be pressed at an inconvenient mo-
ment by a colleague who avows that he has entered
the Cabinet as a Radical, in order to further Radi-
calism as much as he can.
The truth is, that the present Administration is
the creature of dire necessity. No one has stated
this better than Mr. Trelawny, the Liberal candi-
date for Brighton in July last, who was called upon
last week again to oppose Lord Alfred Hervey. He
declines, because he will not oppose the present
Ministry, believing it to be a creation of necessity.
Hs viys:—
"We have to contend with many difficulties. The
Derbyite party is numeroui and powerful. The general
tendency of European politics is reactionary and menac-
ing. No Radical Cabinet could stand. No Peelite
Cabinet could stand. No Whig Cabinet could stand.
Coalition becomes a necessity of the moment. The
question is, what can we do better than accept the pre-
sent Government ?"

he has to obey, I believe also that the Government will
do what is right in that direction, though I object to
much interference by the State on that subject. Law
reform will be zealously persevered in ; and I do hope
that the new Government will be the means of doing
away with that paltry remnant of bigotry which excludes
your fellow-citizens—the Jews—from Parliament ; you
tax them ; you make them high sheriffs, magistrates,
anything. ; you allow them to walk to the doors of Par-
liament, but not to enter in. (Hear, hear.) The prin-
ciple of Sir Robert Peel, when he opened wide the
doors of Parliament to the Roman Catholics, will, I
hop; be adopted by his followers in the present
Cabinet ; and that without scruple that last shameful
remnant of bigotry will by them be put away. In the
cause of free trade very much remains yet to be done ;
in that direction, depend on it, the Government will not
falter. As regards our foreign policy, I believe that
it will be the preservation of peace with every nation in
the world ; but, whilst doing that, at least it will be of
no small importance that all nations should see the
strength of the Government at home, and that, in the
event of any violation of British rights or British ter-
ritory, no Government has better means or larger re-
sources at command for the maintenance of the national
security and the national honour. (Cheers.) I now
repeat my thanks for the honour you have again con-
ferred upon me. I trust that nothing will arise to shake
the confidence of our political relations so long amicably
maintained. Every year only confirms me in the faith
of the opinions I entertained when I first presented my-
self before you ; and I trust that no place, no emolu-
ment of any kind, would induce me to do anything to
forfeit yOnr confidence and your regard. (Cheers.)
place myself in your hands, ready to explain myself at
your call ; and now again I take my leave of yOu with
every good wish for your fortune and for your happiness
in this new year ; and I trust that when we meet again
you will have no reason to regret the business of this
day. (The hon. and learned gentleman retired amidst
hearty and protracted cheering.)
The proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to
the Mayor.

GLOUCESTER.
The nomination took place yesterday, and presented
a striking contrast to that of last July, when the candi-
dates mutually agreed to eschew bell-ringing, flags,
music, and colours. The streets of the city Akre early
astir with bands of music parading, colours flying, and
all the "pomp and circumstance" of an election accord-
ing to the " old style" of things,
The business of nomination commenced at ten o'clock,
at the Shire-hall, which was crowded to excess. On the
whole the proceedigs were carried on with good nature,
but there were two or three fights during the delivery of
Admiral Berkeley's speech. The Sheriff (Mr. Carter)
having gone through the necessary formalities,
Mr. W. WASHBOURNE, Mayor of Gloucester, nomi-
nated Admiral Berkeley for re-election.
Mr. S. KENDALL seconded the nomination.
Mr. DAVIS, solicitor, nominated Mr. Hope, and

Mr. GOODRICH briefly seconded the nomination.
Both candidates addressed the electors at some length,
after which the show of hands was taken. The numbers
were very close, and the sheriff had to take them twice,
ere he decided it to be in favour of Admiral Berkeley.
A poll was then demanded on behalf of Mr. Hope,
which was fixed to open at eight o'clock next morning.
A vote of thanks to the sheriff closed the proceedings
of the nomination.

OXFORD CITY.
Yesterday the Right Hon. Edward Cardwell, Presi-
dent of the Board of Trade in the new Administration,
was elected, without opposition, a repersentative for the
city of Oxford, in the room of Sir W. Page Wood, who
has recently been appointed a Vice-Chancellor. The
proceedings were fixed to take place in the vicinity of the
Town-hall, at 12 o'clock, at which hour the right hon.
gentleman, accompanied by his principal supporters, ar-
rived in the council chamber, whither he was conducted
from the Star Hotel by his friends, who formed a pro-
cession, headed by flags and banners bearing the mot-
toes, " The sail, the loom; the plough, and a free market
for all ;" " -Union at home—peace abroad ;" "Freedom
of suffrage," &c. ; and a band of music playing appro-
priate airs.

Mr. William Walsh proposed and Mr. Sheriff Grabb
seconded the nomination of the right hon gentleman.
Mr. Cardwell addressed the electors at some length, and
the proceedings at the hustings closed with a vote of
thanks to the Mayor. The right lion, gentleman then
underwent the ceremony of a public " chairing," and
was borne through the principal streets of the city in pro-
cession amidst the strains of a band of music, the
ringing of the church bells and the acclamations of the
multitude.
