ELECTION MOVEMENTS.
COUNTY OF HERTFORD.
The nomination of the candidates to represent the
county of Hertford in Parliament, took place yesterday
in the Plough Mead, Hertford. The Conservative can-
didates were accompanied to the hustings by nearly five
hundred horsemen and a great number of carriages filled
with elegantly dressed ladies. Mr. Alston was also ac-
companied by a large body of horsemen and equipages,
and the scene exhibited at the hustings was quite magni-
ficent from the number of equipages, banners, &c., that
were assembled.
The High Sheriff, R. H. Gausden, Esq., having read
the writ and the Deputy Sheriff having also read the
Bribery Act, and made the usual proclamations, the
former addressed the electors, and said they were assem-
bled to perform a most important duty, and he hoped
they would listen attentively and quietly to the observa-
tions of every gentlemen who might address them.
W. BAKER, Esq., then proposed Lord Grimston as a
candidate, and said that he was their well-known and tried
old friend, and he now again came forward with two other
Conservative gentlemen nobly to support the rights and
liberties of the people.—(Cheers.) It was said that there
was a coalition. It was indeed a noble and glorious
coalition to protect the old institutions and the Constitu-
tion of the country from being overset—a coalition to
prevent the Corn-laws, which all their interests looked
to for support, from being altered, and to preserve and
protect the religion of the realm ; and he was satisfied
that if there was such a coalition in every county, Old
England would again be Old England, and would still
hold her place among the nations of the earth.
C. G. TuomsoN, Esq., seconded the nomination.
W. BLAKE then proposed Mr. Alston, amid great
cheering from the supporters of that gentleman. He
said he had great pleasure in proposing Mr. Alston, be-
cause his opinions were wholly different from those of
the other candidates, and believing, as he did, that the
opinions of those gentlemen were detrimental to the best
interests of the country, he had therefore great satisfaction
in supporting Mr.ALston, who was their decided opponent.
He believed that the gentleman who had just "been pro-
posed was too much imbued with Tory principles to
do any good for the country, and as he considered
Toryism the bane of this country, he was glad to have
an opportunity of bringing forward an antidote. Mr.
Alston was not an unknown man,—he had already been
'well tried, and had never been found wanting. And he
defied any man to say that be had neglected his duty
upon any one occasion.—(Cheers.) And he was quite
at a loss to understand why the present attempt had
been made to turn him out, by the introduction of three'
Tory candidates. He implored the electors to rescue
the country from the infliction of having three Tory
Members. He had seen enongh of Tory misrule to in-
duce him to consider that the establishment of another
Tory Government must be looked upon as a national
calamity. The Tories had burdened them and their
children, and they and their children would have to
pay thirty millions a year for ever in consequence of
Tory mistakes, Tory misrule, and Tory mismanagement.
The present Government he believed had done
more for the cause of civil and religious liberty, and im-
proving the condition of the country during the last ten
years, than the Tories had in a hundred—and for the
Reform Bill alone the country would owe them an eter-
nal debt of gratitude. He called on them, therefore, to
show their gratitude by returning Mr. Alston, the sup-
porter of that Government as their representative.
The Hon. W. COWPER seconded the nomination, and
said that the electors had only to look to the division
lists of the House of Commons to see in what manner
Mr.' Alston perfprmed his duty, and they would see that
he had never been absent, or neglected his duty, upon
any important occasion ; and he had always been a con-
sistent supporter of the principles upon which he had
been returned as their representative.—(Loud cheers.)
He gave his support to Mr. Alston because he
was one of those who supported the great
principle of civil and religious freedom—of those
principles of enlightened philanthropy which would
give comfort and education to the poor, and freedom
to all classes. He was also anxious to give him his sup-
port, because he was favourable to those great principles
of commercial reform which had been developed by the
present Government, with the sanction -of her Majesty,
and which involved the great question whether the manu-
facturers of the country were to languish and be de-
stroyed, or whether they were to be placed in a prosper-
ous and flourishing condition, and as a necessary conse-
quence, that agriculture should also flourish, for it was
impossible that one of those branches of industry could
be prosperous while the other was depressed. The Mi-
nistry had introduced a great experiment to make up the
deficiency of the revenue by causing an increase of con-
sumption of the necessarries of life, and thereby obtain
an increased revenue, instead of creating fresh taxes, and
the only real objection the Tories had to the proposed
measure, appeared to him to be their dislike to remove
taxes of any description. They pretended, certainly, to
feel sympathy for the West India planters, but he
thought that a protection of 50 per cent. was quite
sufficient for them, and that they need not com-
plain. With respect to the proposed alteration of the
Corn-laws, he thought that the apprehensions that were
entertained of the results to be apprehended from it
were in many instances most absurd, and, in his opi-
nion, it would not in any way operate to the prejudice
of the landholders. Even Sir Robert Peel admitted the
present sliding scale could not stand, although he did not
say what change he should propose ; and therefore the
only question appeared to be, what change should be
made. The present sliding scale had entirely failed in
its intended operation, and he was convinced that it was
injurious to the farmer, and that the moneyed speculator
alone benefited by it, and that, if they had a fixed duty,
they should secure a uniform and moderate price, in-
stead of being subjected to the violent fluctuations of
the present system. The Honourable Gentleman
then went on to remark upon the addresses that
had been moved by the Conservative candidates,
and, in allusion to their having called the pre-
sent Government ad unprincipled Administration, asked
whether that VMS language becoming honourable Chris-
tian gentlemen, as they professed themselves. He
would not retort the same abuse upon them—the country
had to decide between the two parties—and although the
Government might suffer temporary defeat, he felt quite
sure that the great principles they had brought forward
must eventually be successful, and that truth would ulti-
mately prevail over error and prejudice. Sir Robert
Peel had carefully abstained from binding himself to any
fixed course of proceeding, and he considered that he
had no right to turn out one set of people and then,
perhaps, propose the very same measures which they
would have carried if they had had the power. He con-
sidered the present coalition was got up to destroy the
independence of the county, which, in former
times, had always been foremost in the cause of re-
form, but he felt convinced the attempt would
rouse the spirit of the electors—the , Tories had roused
the sleeping lion, and he would never rest till he had
destroyed his disturbers—for his part he was deter-
mined never to relax his exertions until the county was
placed in its former position as regarded its representa-
tives, and he was convinced the same feeling prevailed
among the majority of the electors.—(Cheers.)
G. F. BOSANQUET, Esq.,then proposed Mr. Abel
Smith, and the nomination was seconded by W. Plumps,
Esq.
N. HIBRART, Esq., proposed the Hon. Granville.
Ryder as a fit and proper person to represent the county
of Hertford in Parliament.—(Great cheering from the
Conservatives.) He respected Mr. Alston as a private
friend and an honourable man, and if the Government
had continued in the torpid state they were some time
back, he should, very probably, not have offered any. op-
position to his re-election, They had seen the Ministry
displaced from power, but still clinging with a desperate
tenacity to the petticoats of the Palace, hoping that
something in the chapter of accidents might turn
up in their favour, and foiled in that hope, they
Saw them now 'bring forward a desperate project,
involving the interests of the most important
institutions of the country, in their dying struggle,
expecting that it would give them a little more
vitality, and keep them in place a little longer. They
had 'seen these Whigs opposing most strenuously the
very same measures when proposed by Messrs. Villiers,
Ewart, and Warburton, which they now themselves sub-
mitted to the country. What was the reason they did
so? Was it because their opinions had conscientiously
changed respecting them ? No. The only reason
was because they were in difficulties, and hoped that a
little excitement and agitation would enable them to go
on for a short time longer. The Ministers told them
that they had seriously considered these matters ; if that
were'the case, he thought it an additional .reason to

show how utterly unqualified they were to control the
destinies of this great nation.—(Cheers.) It was fi,;
possible to countenance a Ministry that would have
cruelty to appeal to the passions of the people by a ire
of " Cheap bread," when they knew at the same on
that it really meant low wages. He concluded by Pr'
posing Mr. Ryder, who, he said, would be a firm se r
porter of the interests of all classes of the community'
and of all changes calculated to be really advantagenu",
to the people.
Mr. HALSEY seconded the nomination, and in til:
course of his observations expressed himself adverse. t..
the provisions of the New Poor-law, and expressed
desire that those enactments pressing harshly upon

Lord GRIMSTON then addressed the electors. Ids
Lordship said he agreed in the opinion that had heeon
expressed that at an important crisis like the present
_4,
private feelings should give way to the public interl
He was acquainted with many Whigs whom he respeete.,
and cherished as friends, but he did not respect theinn
political opinions, and therefore he was induced again 1,.
solicit their suffrages on the present occasion. An 'l-
Gentleman had complained of an expression in the _
dress of the Conservative candidates, but he eeua
sidered that expression quite Parliamentary, ~_ Id
he had not the least desire that the contest sue"l.,
be carried on in any other than a friendly roan to,
and without any personalities being resorted i 1,
The proposer of Mr. Alston had told them a great ",,„ele
about what he had suffered under a Tory Govern he
but he would only say that if he was a fair spechnel,,,,
was a very unfortunate one, for he appeared to o'•.,s
done exceedingly well, and to have been very prospere"o
under Tory rule. The present Ministry had ,1,1/1:14
brought forward a proposition, which, he believed, 'l.,'"
never intended, or had the least intention to earl' in
(Interruption.) He, however, felt great pleasure,ne
opposing the present question, and the Ministers finw 7
themselves in a minority, had apealed to the countr,o't
and recent proceedings clearly showed that they had 11,,
been very. scrupulous in usingl them in places, tomi.
cure a majority of supporters.—(Hear, hear.) The ,ig
nisters told the people they were to have everyll'
cheap—cheap bread, cheap sugar, cheap timber, 51..1e,
cheap tea ; but he must say, that with ,:lsti
spect to the last mentioned article, they mit_
such a very curious mode of cheapening it by hicle,Rl.

have the effect of doing great injury to their 070
colony of Canada—a colony, be it. remembered, tllatbe
very lately had so nobly come forward in suppo farthing
mother country—and, to save three-fifths of aot
a pound on the price of sugar (for that was the en,
of the reduction), another colony was to be sacrinc`;
and the great and magnificent experiment the Peti,
had made for the abolition of slavery would be destroYto, a
and all the horrors of slavery revived. He Was s,d, 4
however, that the people of England had too much gnd.
sense to be deceived by such a mischievous project, 7;),
the results of the elections showed that this was iti
case. He was opposed to a fixed duty on corn, at
was sure that a fixed duty would not act advanta,e,eil lo
and that a sliding-scale was the only real prote6ctw,,,..
the farmer, while, at the same time, it worked with „lb-
neral advantage to the country. The honourable eTt;
didate then congratulated the electors upon the res 3,..
of the elections, and said that, if they exerted the
selves, the victory must be theirs.—(Cheersl' ' , tir-
Mr. ALsTort next came forward and was very tav".„o
ably received by his supporters. He said: the recaPtilti-et

The French papers received this morning state that accounts
received from Trieste announce that the cholera morbus which
had abandoned Europe, has made its appearance in the environs
of that town, four persons of the village of Wimtun have already
died after being ill two or three days:
Accounts from Vienna of the 25th June state, that the
army at present is organised in such a manner that in a short
time they can put in the field 480,000 men.
The accounts from Bordeaux state that at the present
moment there is in that town a great many superior
officers of the ex-army of Don Carlos, amongst
whom is the General-in-Chief Villarent. General
O'Donnell has beery for some time past at Bayonne
on his return from Paris. N. Peres de Castro was to quit
Bayonne on the 30th June to return to Paris with his wife and
children. This journey of his was on account of his health..•

Although scarce anything is doing in the British Market,
Consols have become heavy since the early part of the morn-
ing, no doubt owing to the late failures; and it is stated
that two or three more bankers are on the point of winding up.
This has affected the Market. Consols, which were 891 to I,
may be quoted, at present, 89-2- to ; Reduced, 89i ; 'lliree-
and-a-hall' per Cent. Reduced, 89 ; Exchequer Bills, lower--

May, state that a loan has been effected to the amount of
500,0001., or 4,000 contos, at 721. 125., the major part of
which has already been disposed of.
The Coronation has been postponed to the 18th July, to the
satisfaction of the loyal inhabitants of Rio.
Q UAR TER TO THREE.
The Money Market appears to be undergoing one of those
partial and temporary changes to which it has been so fre-
quently subjected within the last few months. Money, all cir-
cumstances considered, has been tolerably easy, but there is no
question it would have been much tighter, were it not for the
payment of the dividends at the Bank of England. The failures
that have occurred within the last few days are of course the chief
obstacle to a return of perfect ease in monetary affairs. As to
the statement of the revenue, it is what all must have been
prepared for, who have watched the reports given under this
head from time to time relative to the depressed condition of
every branch of trade.
Consols for Account, 891 A ; Mexican, 26% 27% ; Spa-
nish, 21A
Markets rather firmer, and money not so scarce.

COLONIAL MARKET.

The price of produce continues' depressed, and the Lade very
inactive. B. P. Sugar was taken off in small parcel. but at
full prices. Refilled Sugar in fair demand for home onsump-
tion, and prices firm at 945. to 955. for good Grocer: Lumps,
and at 90s. to 955. for Commcn. The inquiry aft( Coffee
was confined to fine West India sorts, which broughtprevious
rates, while inferior qualities were unsaleable. Cottoi in little
demand, and rather higher. Rice more sought after,and can
only be bought at stiff prices._
