ELECTION OF ALDERMEN.

Yesterday (Thursday) being the day appointed by the Mu-
nicipal Corporation Act for the election of Aldermen in all
the reformed and newly constituted boroughs, considerable in-
terest was excited with reference to the expected result, and
the Hall was early filled with burgesses and others, in anxious
expectation of witnessing the proceedings of the new Munici-
pal body in this their first official act, which, however took
place in the Council-room, and necessarily (from its limited
size arid non-adaptation for the purposes of a public meeting)
to the exclusion of the public.

Mr. Browne, after observing that at a meeting held on the
day previous, a list had been prepared (which he now pro-
duced) of persons to be proposed as Aldermen, and which
had met with unanimous approbatio, named the following
persons :
Messrs. Norman

Messrs. Sutcliffe

Jones
Barrow
Gordon (Capt.)
English
Blair
J. Phillott

Crisp
Mainwaring, Cap. C. F.
Shenstone
Ashman
Kent
Scott

Mr. West seconded the nomination, observing that although
there were some names for which he thought others might be
advantageously substituted, yet he deemed it best on the whole
to promote unanimity by mutual concessions; a feeling which
had actuated the entire body, in preparing the proceedings of
the day, and which had led to the present hrrmonious under-
standing.
Mr. West nominated Mr. W. T. Blair.

Mr. Norman put the nomination to the vote by a show of
hands, when every hand present was held up, which called
forth immense cheers. Mr. Norman then proceeded to con-
gratulate Mr. Blair upon the unanimous declaration in his
favour, and took that opportunity of telling him that, in the
discharge of his Magisterial duties, he might rely upon the
ready assistance of all the Magistrates of the city and county.
Mr. George, Town-Clerk, re-elected—subject to a com-
mittee of inquiry into his emoluments. Allowance to the
Nayor, 5001.
