DORSET ELECTION.

DORCHESTER, Ocr. 15.—The triumph of Lord Ashley is
not expected to be of long duration. The votes before the As-
sessor which were not allowed to be placed on the poll are 4M,
and would have given Mr. Ponsonby a majority. The numbers
were as under :

Mr. Ponsonby ... 260
•Lord Ashley
Majority for Mr. Ponsonby 69
This would have given Mr. Ponsonby a majority of 33 over
Lord Ashley on the gross poll. The friends of Mr. Ponsonby are
ontident that Lord Ashley will be declared unduly returned,
when the proceedings come before the proper quarter.

WARD OF FARRINGDON WITHOUT.
('PHIS DAY.)

A numerous and very respectable meeting of this Ward was
'held in the vestry room of St. Andrew's, Holborn, Mr. De-
puty Roamers in the chair, in the absence of Mr. Alderman
Waithnsan.
Mr. PONTIFEX moved the first resolution. He addressed
the meeting at considerable length, after adverting to the noble
firmness and kindness-of his Majesty, he said the conduct
of the Bishops in opposing Reform was most inconsistent,
for Reform made them, and only Reform, not only in Parlia-
ment, but in their own strong hold, the Church, could save
them.—(Loud applause.) He then moved the resolution,
which expressed regret, &c. at the rejection of " the Bill," by
the House of Lords.

It was seconded by Mr. SAVAGE, and passed unanimously.

_
Mr. TICKNER moved the second resolution to the
effect, " Nothing could save the country from the horrors of re-
volution, but the continued confidence of his Majesty in the
present Ministry." , He fully agreed with the language of the
address, and was firmly of opinion that the people of England
would not have been quiet but for the confidence in the firmness
of his Majesty, and the honesty of his present Ministers.
Mr. FIGGINS seconded the resolution, and depreCated any-
thing like violence.
The resolution was then carried unanimously.
Mr. WOOD proposed the third resolution, which said,
That as men having property, and of course a stake in the
country, they implored his Majesty to confide the reins of Go-
vernment into no other hands than those that at present held
them." In speaking of the conduct of the Bishops he said,
that no one could be surprised at their conduct, for they had
all their lives been advocates of corruption, and for that they
were made Bishops : on corruption they have lived and fattened,
and naturally they were afraid of the people's Bill.

Mr. CHARLES seconded the resolution.
The resolution was then put and carried (like the others) una-
nimously.

Mr. Waithman here entered, and took the chair.
Mr. FEA RON moved an address to his Majesty, founded on
the resolutions which had passed. Being one of a deputation
to the Duke of Sussex, the old and tried friend of the people,
he had heard from his own lips, only yesterday, that there was
no split is the Cabinet—that tie Ministry were determined to
carry a Bill as efficient as the last, and that the ten pound clause
would not be interfered with.—(Hear, and immense cheering.)
This (said Mr. Fearon) completely answered all the objections
which had been made for the last few days to the Ministry,
and which had caused such alarm for the fate of Lord John
Russell's Bill. From the present Ministry they would receive
the Bill, but from the Duke of Wellington, or any other oppo-
nent who might come into office, they would insist upon a
much larger measure. He was positive no such thing would
ever require to be done by the people.

The Address was carried with three times three.
A GENTLEMAN proposed a resolution, which was car-
ried, of thanks to the Ministry, and calling upon them to call
together the Parliament as soon as possible.
Mr. PONTIFEX proposed a resolution of thanks to the mi-
nority In the House of Lords, and of execration on the majo-
rity, especially the Bishops, which was carried with great ac-
clamations.

The thanks of the meeting were given to Mr. Alderman
Waithman, who returned thanks, and the meeting broke up.

LONDON SESSIONS•-(THIS DAY.)

This morning these Sessions commenced before the Lord
Mayor, the Sheriffs, the Recorder, Aldermen Ansley, Garrett,
Hunter, C. Smith, Winchester, Wilson, Thompson, &c.
The Grand Jury having been sworn, the Recorder congra-
tulated them on the lightness of the calendar.

The business of the Court was then suspended for a consi-
derable time, while the Deputy Lieutenants of the city of
London were sworn into their office.

Jonathan Thomas Johnson, a person of very gentlemanly ap-
pearance, was indicted for assaulting Mr. Thomas Chalmers.
It appeared from the evidence, that the prosecutor had formerly
known the defendant, who about the year 18:24 was transported
for seven years for seine offence. On the Bth of August last,
the prosecutor was in the parlour of the Dolphin public-house,
Coleman-street, transacting some business with another gen-
tleman, when the defendant came in and began abusing
him. He, in reply, said he would hold no intercourse with
a man who had been transported, and who had just returned
from the hulks. Upon that the defendant challenged him to
fight, took off his coat, and struck him several severe blows.
Mr. PAYNE addressed the Jury for the defence. He said he
could not deny the assault, but he put it to the Jury whether a
person who happened to have been once punished by the laws of
his country, pardoned while on board the hulks, and afterwards
endeavouring to establish himself in a respectable way of life,
was to be subject to have ..his future hopes blasted by persons
publicly declaring him to be a returned convict. It was
under' these circumstances that the assault took place, and
It was impossible to carry human forbearance so far as to allow
such an observation to pass without notice. The Learned
Counsel called

Mr. Thomas Smith, a wine.merehant, to prove that the pro-
secutor first abused the defendant, He, however, stated,
that the defendant first addressed the prosecutor. He denied
that the defendant assaulted the prosecutor, being restrained
from touching him by the persons present. The witness stated
that he had had dealings with the defendant, who a year back
had been in business as a wine.mcrchant.

The Jury found the defendant Guilty, and he was sentenced
to pay a fine of 20s. to the King, and to find security for his
good behaviour for one year in the sum of 80/.

LIVES OF FEMALE SOVEREIGNS.—Among
many other interesting lives in this new work by the Au-
thorei.a of "The Diary of an Ennuyee' " announced for
immediate publication, will he found that N of JOANNA of
Naples, the friend of PETRARCII and I3OCCACCIO. In the
history of this remarkable Princess, what splendid mate-
rials exist for tragedy and romance—for a SIIAKSPFA
or a SCOTT—in the characters, passions, incidents,' and
wild vicissitudes of her stormy reign! JOANNA herself,
with all her elegance and loveliness ; her t..inderneais and
her magnanimity; her wrongs, her errors, and her miser-
able end ; the intriguing CATANTsE ; the villain friar;
the chivalrous Prince of TARANTO ; the fierce implacable
Louts of Hungary; the perfidious ambitious Durtazzo ;
with BOCCACCIO and his FIAMMETTA ; and PETRARCII,
like a superior intelligence among them ! What a group
to be brought together on the same canvas ! Mrs. JAME-
SON has feeling and taste to pourtray them, with an effect
which leaves nothing to be wished by the lovers of what
},as been called the "historical picturesque."

LONDON,
WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 19, 1831.

In the Upper House last night the Vestry Bill
with its amendments passed through the Com-
mittee, and was ordered to be read a third time to-
day. In the House of Commons some brief but
interesting conversation took place. Mr. HUNT pre-
sented a petition complaining of the Bishops for the
cote they had given on the Reform Bill, on which
Colonel EvANs remarked with much truth, that
he thought the interests of the people would be
considerably benefited by the exclusion of the
Bishops from the House of Lords. The Hon.
and Gallant Member's opinion is, we know,
rapidly finding favour with the people, who
are well aware that for the Reverend Prelates to
attend strictly and conscientiously to the discharge
of their spiritual duties, it is absolutely necessary
that they should be deprived of scats in the House
of Lords. A Protestant Bishop should not be a po-
litician, He should be no party man, neither Whig
nor Tory, but wholly and exclusively a clergyman.
The very title," My Lord Bishop" is an inappropriate
one, and sounds offensively in the ears of those who
have been brought up from childhood to reverence
the characters of the early Apostles, whose meek,
unostentatious, and blameless lives were in such
exact—such beautiful accordance with the doc-
trines which they so eloquently expounded.
In what portion of Scripture do we find it recom-
mended that a Christian Bishop should be a Peer ?
In what passage of the divine Sermon on the Mount
is it advised that he should " be clothed in purple
and ine linen, and fare sumptuously every day ?"
Where is the scriptural warrant for his wantoning

in all the luxuries of this world, riding in
stately carriages, dwelling in sumptuous palaces, and
trampling upon the rights of that flock whom he is
expressly ordained to defend ? Were St. PAUL, or
St. PETER, or St. JOHN, " he whom the Saviourmost
loved," Bishops of this 'class'? We they always
found antong the oppresiers of the people, always
iforeinoit in 'the race of intolerance ? Alas ! there
is a marked—a lamentable difference between the
early Fathers of the Church and the bishops of
the present day. The fereler preserved their con-
sciences entered through evil and through
gotd 'report ; truth was with them truth, whe-
ther it was honoured or despised of men t whe-
ther it exalted them in rank tt irbnt uCted them
to the blazing pilet *bile the latter are lati-
tudinaritns in conscience, easy in their prin.
" as an old shoe," and aS vkiable as weather-
cocks. Ten days itic Impelled by a sacred sense of
duty, they 'rejected the Reform Bill; ten weeks hence,
impelled, we presume, by an equal sense of duty,
they will doubtless accept it. For tht apostacy of
one, at least, of the Revrkend fraternity we will
answer. First an Anti-Catholic, then a pro-Catho-
tie; it is ridiculous to suppose that this venerable
Apostle will hesitate an instant in changing from
Anti-Reformer to Reformer. We will not do him
the injustice to suppose that his conscience is so in-
accessible to hints.

Mr. P. THOMPSON mentioned last night, in reply
to some questions put by Sir R. VYV VAN, that Go-
vernment was taking every precaution to prevent the
Introduction of the cholera into this I. ingdom. The
House afterwards passed the Bankruptcy Court Bill.

The discussion on the French Peerage question
has probably, before this, been closed in the
Chamber of Deputies. The large majority which
carried the abolition of the hereditary character of
the Peerage (324 to 86) was, there is no doubt,
considerably swollen by the news of the conduct of
our House of Incurables arriving in Paris as it did, at
the very moment when an example was most wanted
to shew the true character of a system of hereditary
legislation. The instance was too palpable to admit
of being explained away, or glossed over, even by
the most bigotted Carlists, and the principal part of
the project seems to have passed with ichit.
Whether the Ministerial plan of assigning to the
KING the nomination of the future Peers will be
wholly successful, yet remains to I e seen. It ap-
pears probable, that the Ministers may on this occa-
sion, as on the debate upon foreign policy, carry
their point in the Chamber against public opinion.
Not, however, without some modification ; for M.
MosnounG's amendment, adding to the proposed
pecuniary qualification the proviso that the new
Peers should have been for six years members of
municipal councils, infuses some portion of popularity
into the qualifications of candidates. M. MOSBOURG
being a Bonapartist, having been in office under
JOACHIM MURAT, the triumph of the carriage of
his amendment was the greater over the Go-
vernment,• which seems, by the way, more foolishly
frightened than ever at the most petty display s
of Bonapartist feeling that take place. Nume-
rous other amendments have been proposed by
the Deputies, almost every one of whom thinks
he has devised a scheme for reconciling the incon-
venience that would ensue from the election of Peers
being exclusively either with the KING, or with the
people. But it seems the Ministers are likely to
carry their original plan of vesting the nomination
in the Crown—a plan which, we have before said,
appears to us utterly irreconcilable with the inten-
tions of the patriots who effected the Revolution of
the three days of July. The essence of power
in France must henceforth be and remain in the
Chamber of Deputies. No efforts of the conserva-
tive party in that country can now raise up an aris-
tocracy, as a counterpoise between the influence of
Royalty and that of the people. Royalty itself
must be content to depend upon citizen opinion.
It is, therefore, inconsistent and out of place
to vest in the Crown a power of nomination
whose tendency would be to add to it an under-
stream of sinister influence, instead of the true
power and dignity which it ought to derive from
the nation alone. The scheme is altogether opposed
to the spirit of the French people—a criterion
which, according to M. PERIER'S own showing,
ought to be a sufficient condemnation of this part of
his project.
The feeling in the Chamber seems to have been
strong in favour of the establishment of classes,
or categories, to which the KING'S choice should
be limited. But it is almost irnpo-sible that
such categories could be made narrow enough
to prevent the KING, if so minded, from nomi-
nating persons objectionable to the nation. The
condition imposed by M. MossouaG's amendment
will be ineffectual to obviate the appointment of a
host of conservative toad-eaters, if the KING should
be unwise enough to appoint them. In fact, no ca-
tegory, as it is called, can effectually attain the end
which the people desire, though the Chamber may
not, namely—security against the nomination of
Peers whose opinions and views are opposed to
those of the nation. If the KING is to have the
nomination at all, we see no condition whereby the
interest of the people can be effectually protected,
except the giving the Chamber of Deputies an un-
qualified nega.ive upon the appointment, so that
the voice of the nation should be, at all events,
given, though not given by popular election.
But we are convinced, so far as our ob-
servation can guide us, that a Chamber of Peers,
elected by the people, after the manner of the Bel-
gian Senate, would be infinitely more desirable, as
well as more respectable, in France, than a Chamber
filled with the creatures of Rayalty, whether such
creatures be positive or categorical.
It is not yet settled whether or not the Chamber
of Peers itself is to be consulted upon the measure.
Should the Deputies give it the opportunity of re-
jection, they will, not withstanding, be sure so to ma-
nage matters as to nullify any opposition which the
Peers may be able to get up. The question ought
regularly to have been settled at the Revolution,
but although, on account of its special nature,
time was allowed for its consideration, it was
never intended that the Peers Were to be.
suffered to contest it ainst the popular wishes
Nor is it at all probable that the Peers, who are
treated as mere ciphers in the formation of the new
order of things, and who have no more weight in
public estimation than the statues in the Luxembourg
gardens, should be suffered to make even a show of
resistance to the measure. A vote of the Deputies,
declaring that, as the representatives of the nation,
they fulfil the task assigned to them at the Revolu-
tion, would effectually do the business without any
such deference as our House of Lords is able to se-
cure to itself, though it has outraged public opinion
a thousand times more violently than the French
Peers have et-er dared to do, or dreamed of doing.

The Prussian Slate Gazelle gives a long account
of the proceedings of Marshal PASKEIVITSCH, with

a view to crush the last spark of independence in
Poland :
Head-quarters of Field-Marshal Count Paekewitsch, of Ell,.
van, Prince of Warsaw, dated front BOltitnyPe; scpf.
" There. tals fetioti to believe. that the taking of Warsaw
would be the termination of hostilities. The nation, through
the medium of General Krukowiecki, the army, throngli its
Commander-in-Chief, had implored the clemeney of, their
timate Sovereign, and in.order.,to escape a third battle; wlikti

In, order the better to cdiiceal their
treachery, and to give sUfficient tame for their projected
enterprises, 'the insurgents sent envoys to the Russians with
proratlts and assurances of submission. The Russian
Commander received them, but while he continued the nego-
tiations he did not neglect the preparations for the renewal of
hostilities, for the perfidy and want of faith Whjrh the. toli'isi,l
had just shown clearly proved tta such adversaries
it was neretsary tti Vpreiiii On the force of arms rather than on
contenti'OnS. In fact, the insurgents made use of the interval
to throw a bridge over the river below Modlin, at Dobryzkow.
The Russian Commander, on his side, caused a bridge to be
laid opposite the town of Trzoskowo, in order to facilitate the
movements of the army on both sides of the Vistula. OritYW::
were then given to Count Pahlen; the Ist corps, 'ect Ohserve
the left bank, at the same 'tithe the rest of the army was in:
structed to support his operations. As soon as the place Which
the enemy had chosen for passing the ricer Was knO.wn; the
army advanced towards Socharidv. SeareelY Were the
rebels informed of this rooVenitlit, than they gave up the idea
of crossing the D'Obrzykowo, detached their bridge, and let it
float down the river to Plozk. Thence they proceeded to the
Lower Vistula, and took a position at Wrozlawek, where they
again laid a bridge over the river, and crossed it in order to go
to the southern part of the kingdom. Count Pahlen, who wits
then at Gostynin, advanced towards Mowal, and took Up a
central position between that town and llrzesc, so that he
might be able to secure the enemy in whatever direction he
might appear. In this manner he defeated all the plans of the
rebels, though he had only 15,000 men, and the enemy's corps
was 22,000 or 2:3,000 strong. Mean time the main army niade
a retrograde movement, crossed the Vistula, and afterwards the
Bug at Gora. The Commander-its-Chief Chose the main Mad
of the province of Plozk, to be able to oppose the rebels accord-
ing to circumstances : either to the north, in case they should
attempt to escape by way of Mlawa, to Lithuania—or on the
south, if they should risk to march up the Vistula, hack to Mod-
lin. While the rebels had been Compelled by Count Pahlen to re-
tire again from the left to the right bank of the Vistula, the Corn-
mander=in.thief, with his principal force, had reached Plonna.
Count Pahlen, who had taken possession of the bridge over the
Vistula, crossed the river and followed the enemy close. The re-
bels then seeming by a rapid movement to proceed by Mlawa
and Lithuania, the Commander-in-Chief left Plonna with his
corps, and turned towards the right to Ragiondz. Nothing now
remained for the insurgents, who found themselves nearly sur-
rounded on all side by the Russian columns, but to lean towards
the north. Pressed in part by the corps of Count Pahlen, out-
flanked on both sides by the cavalry and the main army, they
were forced back to Rypin, while the Commander-in-Chief in-
terrupted the road to Russia, by advancing through Rachavo
and Biezun to Pizyurtowo. The remains of the Polish army
meeting any where with Russian columns, were obliged to re-
treat by way of Janorvo and Sczoglowa to the Prussian territory.
In their retreat they were constantly prevented by the vanguard
of the main army, consisting of the cavalry of Gen.Doelororo, and
the Cossacks of the Hetman Wiassow, as well as by Count
Pahlen's corps; thus the deliverance of the kingdom was com-
pleted. The perfidy manifested by all the acts of the rebels,
even the taking of Warsaw, was punished by the expulsion of
the Polish army from its native land.
POSEN, OCT. 7.—Accounts from Cracow described the agi-
tation that prevailed there before the occupation of the city by
the Russian troops. Prince Czartoryski seemed to have ima-
gined that Romarino and Rozyzki might join, and make a pro-
tracted resistance ; he, therefore, declared himself the head of
a new Confederation, and repaired to Kielce, where he issued
proclamations, which had no effect, because the two corps were
mean time broken up, and retreated into the Austrian territory.
Many of Romarino's officers, misled, perhaps, by these mea-
sures, refused to retreat into the Austrian States, and to join in
the submission of the corps. These, and many others of Ro-
zyzki's corps, assembled at Cracow, and caused various disorders ;
they cried out against treachery and bad conduct, and excited
such a ferment among the populace, that the latter went about the
streets looking for Generals Skrzynecki, Kaminski, and even
Chlopieki, to put them to death, but happily did not find
them. The confusion having reached its height, a Russian
flag of truce appeared with a very positive declaration to the
Senatc that if it had not the power or the inclination to send
away the Polish troops in six hours, the Russians would attack
and expel them; hereupon the Polish troops left Cracow and re-
treated to Gallicia. The city was occupied on the 28th•fif the
Russian troops, and perfect order and tranquillity now prevails
there, which are secured by the admirable discipline and exem-
plary conduct of the Russian troops._

Prussia, Austria, and lastly in Hamburg, the utter inefficacy of

Government, and the loss incalculable to the industrious classes.

THE ENGLISHMAN, SUNDAY NEWSPAPER,
PRICE SEVENPENCE.—A Saturday afternoon edition of
the Englishman, admirably adapted for the country, will
in future be published at No. 170, Strand. The pub-
lication will take place every Saturday afternoon, at four
o'clock, in time for the poet, by which it may be received
on Sundays 200 miles from London. As a family News-
paper the Englishman stands unrivalled; not a line, or
an advertisemen,, of an immoral tendency, is allowed,
under any circumstances, to stain its pages. The Eng-
lishman is a twenty-folio-column Journal, the same size
and price as the Observer. The paper upon which it is
printed is an excellent port, and the type almost new.
Indeed, for variety, quantity, and quality, it is the most
perfect. In speaking of Sunday Newspapers, it is pro-
verbial to say, the Englishman is almost a library in itself.

BIRNIINGHAM.—In compliance with a nu-

JESTY their deep regret and disappointment at the rejec
tion of the Reform Bill by the House of Los da—their
unabated confidence in his MAJZSTY and his Ministers,...
and their earnest hope " That all constitutional measures
will be employed for the speedy accomplishment of an ob-
ject so essential to the peace and welfare of the country."
The meeting will no doubt be very fully attended._.

DESTRUCTIVE HURRICANE ---On Wed-
nesday evening last a hurricane passed over a considerable
portion of the park of Thorndon Hall, the seat of Lord
PETRE, near Brentwood. The blast came on about eight
o'clock, and in lens than four minutes the work of havoc
was completed. It appears that the wind caine from the
south-west, and entered the park, near the Lions' Lodge,
where it threw down a small portion of the paling. It
then traversed the park in a varying sweep of about 150
yards' breadth. It is difficult to form any idea of the
manner in which it took its course, as it bas made many
singular selections of spots and single trees. The line of
de,olation is not an uninterrupted one ; in many places a
large breadth of trees has escaped unhurt, while others,
apparently sheltered by them, have been shivered or torn
up by, the roots. It is a little singular that the noise
occasioned by the destruction was heard in the mansion,
but was supposed to be thunder, and the real cause was
not ascertained till next morning. The hurricance was
immediately succeeded by a tremendous fall of rain.--
