Extract of a private letter, October 15, from
Climber House, the seat of the Duke of NEWCASTLE,
near Nottingham :—" There are sad doings in Notting-
hamshire. You have heard, no doubt, of Nottingham
Castle being burnt, and I am sorry to add thst the Doke
has received notice that it is the intention of the rabble to
set fire to Clumber 'louse ; therefore, we have taken down
all the pictures and furniture, and the rooms are filled with
common muskets. We have a troop of horse of fifty men,
patrolling about the park. All the tenants in the neigh..
bourhood have removed their furniture, and left their homes.
Some of the fellows have been themselves in the park, and
set fire to a cow-house and barn. Let ns hope that every
thing will go off quietly, when they find us so well pre-
pared."—Brighton Gazette.
It is a curious fact that, out of the fifty-one
Lords Lieutenant of the counties of England and Wales.
(Sir WATICIN WILLIAMS WYNN rules over two Welsh
counties—via., Denbigh and Metioneth), there are only
thirteen of these high officers who are adherents of the
present Government. These are the Marquis of CLEvz_

CA.III4IIGESIIIRE ELECTION,

(Abridged from the Times.)
FIRST DAY.

Cambridge, Thursday, One o'clock.
Soon after eleven o'clock this morning, the High Sheriff
(J. BENDVSGE, E-q.) accompanied by the Vuder-Sheriff
and several gentlemen, proceeded to the County Court, where
the writ having been read and the usual formalities gone
through, the Court was adjourned to the large open space,
a common, called Parker's Piece, about half a mile outside
the town, wh, Pt very commodious hustings were erected.
While the High Sheriff was engaged at the County Cenrt,
the friends of the respective candidates came to the ground
in grand procession, preceded by bands of music, and by
a large display of flags and banners. The first on the
ground were those of Mr. Townley, with flags and banners
of light blue and white mixed. The friends of Captain
Yorke followed soon after. They were preceded by a
band, and a very handsome display of flags and banners of
pink and white. This procession was more numerous than
the other. It was accompanied by a numerous and highly
respectable body of gentlemen •on horseback and in car-
riages. They marched round the field, and thus came up
in front of the hustings, in the direction opposite to that
by which the Reformers had advanced. The two parties
came thus in contact, and in a manner indicative, we fear,
of a very hostile feeling on froth sides. The Yorke party
tried to pass the hustings immediately in front, and suc-
ceeded in good part in doing so ; but before they got quite
past, some blows were exchanged between their front
ranks and the Reform party near the hustings. This
created an angry feeling against the body of horsemen,
who pressed on from the rear ; and wnen they came
up, they were opposed by a strong phal max of the
Reformers, who threw themselves in the passage which
the foot part of Captain Yorke's procession had left.
The Yorke party faced about-, and a large batty of
the Reformers were thus placed between them and the
horse. Finding themselves thus menaced in front and
rear, they gave way at the side, and as an opening wa-
made, the horsemen urged their way with an apparent
recklessness of the consequences. I noticed a good many
gownsmen in the crowd, as well as on the hustings, but I
city no disposition manifested by them to take any part at
either side. I understand that opinion is much more di-
vided in the University on this question than it was ever
known to be before on any great public question ; but from
all I can learn, the opinion of the majority of the g..iwns-
men is with the Anti-Reformers. When the disturbance
which I have just noticed had subsided, the High Sheriff,
accompanied by the candidates and a considerable number
of gentlemen, took their places on the hustings. Lord F.
Osborne, the late, and Mr. Adeane, the sitting Member,
were amongst the number, and were loudly cheered by the
crowds in front. Captain Yorke was cheered by his
friends; but his appearance was the signal of loud and
continued hissing, and cries of, " Off, off; Yorke, you
are not wanted." Silence being in some degree restored,
Mr. J. P. Ass's stood forward to propose to the meet-
ing his friend Captain Yorke. Here the uproar was re-
newed, and continued until—
The HIGH SHERIFF declared that if they did not hear
Mr. Allix, and every gentleman who offered himself on
the business of the di,y, he should feel himself under the
necessity of adjourning the poll.
Mr. Awx again proceeded. He had the honour to
propose to the freeholders cif the county of Cambridge and
the Ide of Ely, his Hon. awl Gall int Friend Captain
Yorke, as a fit and proper person to represent them in
Parliament. The illustrious family of Yorke and the
services they had performed to the country were wel
known to them all. It was unnecessary for him, therefore

to hay any thing to them on that subject. Ot Captain
Yorke, their present candidate, he would say that he was
a friend to the agricultural interest ; hut he was no friend
to the late Reform Bill.—(Disapprobation.) lie was wil-
ling to reform all abuses, but he was opposed to any at-
tempt to revolutionize the country. lie would not place
the ruanucturers over the head of the agriculturists,—he
would not give a vote to the 101. houYeholder while he
withheld it from a farmer who paid a less rent than 301. ;

but all these were effects which must follow the Reform
13ill, to which he was opposed. Was it not too much to
expect that tie north of England should have representa-
tives under the new system, of four to one as compared
with the south ? and what would be the consequence of
this unequal division? That the corn laws would be re-
pealed—that the land would be thrown out of cultivation;
asd then who would support the poor ? In the best
times of old England, its greatest pride were its farmers.
To these she looked as her chief support; but now, it ap-
peared that their interests were to be sacrificed to the ma-
nufacturers.
Sir C. WALE seconded the motion.

Captain YORKE then presented himself, and was re-
ceived with loud disapprobation, mingled with cheers from
his friends, and cries of " Fair play—hear all sides." The
Hon. and Gallant Officer assured the county, and wished
it to be known, that though supported by the Duke of
Rutland's interest, he had no connexion whatever with the
family or the politics of that Noble Duke. lie had not
even the honour of knowing his Grace, and though his
Grace was kind enough to give him his support, he did it
without any party connexion on his (Captain Yorke's) part.
But it was said he was bred up to party. He gave them
his word of honour that it was not so : he had not been
long enough connected with public life to have enlisted
under party banners, and of this he woul4 assure the
county, that he would support any administration which
would exert itself to reduce the public expenditure.—
(" Hear," and some cries of " That's all talk.") The Hon.
and Gallant Officer then went on to call the attention of the
meeting to some of the particulars mentioned in the Black
List, (which he held up). lie was not about to go through
the whole ; but he must say, that as a whole it was the
most infamous publication he had ever seen.—(" b's
true.") Truth and justice was all lie wanted, and he would
appeal to the sense of truth and justice possessed by the
locating against some of the statements in the " Black
List." One wa., that the Earl of Hardwicke had 11,0001.
a-year as steward of the University of Cambridge, which
he had held for 41 years. If that were the case, then the
University must owe him upwards 400,0001., far he could
assure the meeting he had not yet touched one farthing of
income from the situation. Another statement was, that
his uncle, the Right Hon. C. Yorke, derived 2,590/. a-
year as a teller of the Exchequer.—(A voice in the crowd,
" And an't that a shame ?") He did not think so. His
uncle had long represented that county, and bad been a
most useful member to the county. He had held various
offices, such as Secretary of State, Secretary at War, and
First Lord of the Admiralty ; but it was a fact, that in
those employments he spent a large part of his private for-
tune. When First Lord of the Admiralty, in time of war,
he gave up to the country 2,000/. a-year of the 5,000/.
attached to the office, because he felt that at that time the
country was already g reatly burdened, and he was convinced
eon he would be ready to lay down his sinecure if his
country required it.—(A voice " Why don't he ?") The
situation had been give❑ by the King without any solicits-

tion or even expectation on his part that the gift was in-
tended.—(Several voices "By what King ?") By
George lll.—(Laud hisses)—and he could feel no sort of
objection to accept an office which had bee❑ held by so
many eminent statesmen before him. He now came to the
question which interest. d them all, that of Reform, and
he would ask them did not the whole Constitution as it
now stood work well ?—(A voice in the crowd, " Oh, the
old Tory argument.") He could assure the meeting, and
he bid them mark it well, tkat he was no Tory.—(What
are you then ?) He was, and would continue to be, an
independent man not fettered by the trammels of any
party. He would tell the meeting that he was as ready
as any of those present to throw overboard all rotten ho-
roughs.—(Where's Riegate.) He would come to that.
He was perfectly ready to disfranchise every borough
which had been proved guilty, or any borough which had
changed hands for money, and also those which had be-
come so deterioraied by time as to have no grounds of re-
presentation left. He would punish bribery with great
severity, but he would not at once disfranchise 120 bo-
roughs without any proof, or attempt at proof, of a case
made against them. As to the borough of Riegate, it was
one of burgage tenure, the property of which had been
conferred on his ancestor, Lord Somers, who had so great
a hand in framing the Bill of Rights ; and from that
time to the present it had never changed hands, but had

always been represented by one or two members of his
family. It contained a population little short of 3,000 in-
habitants.—(llow many vote?) There were 217 voters,
and he couli not say they were less independent for voting
for the members of a family to whom the property in the
soil belonged. He, for one, could not give his consent to

the sweeping disfr.inchisement of all the boroughs in scl!e-
dule A. The basis upon which the representation of this
country should he founded was that of population com-
bined with property; and be would reit:et population
alone as the representative system for this reason, that he
did not think it a sufficiently secure one under the exist-

ing circumstances and condition of the country. It might
he a fair question enough as to the propriety of giving re-
presentatives to the great manufacturing towns, but such
a measure should not be effected by moans of a gross act
of inkatice,—by the disfranchisement of a great number
of boroughs, wealthy and flouri.hing, and again,t
whom no act 01 delinquency had been proved
There was one point connected with " the Bill" which

should not be forgotten. Owing to the immense nu►oher

of p now which the 101, clause would admit to the right

of voting, it would be necessary to have an an°
tration of votes. It was intended by the Bill
an annual registration should take place, and tl',
employ nearly 400 barrister s, who would be P
