ELECTION MOVEMENTS

Mn.
YotiNC A'!:D COMMODORE NAi.IER.—As these gen-
tlemen, both agree upon one point—a re.u.tual hatred of the
Tories—it has been thought nee,ssary that one of them should
retire, in order to secure the return of two Reformers. The
foUowing plan for decaling the qu stion, we believe, has been
proposed by Mr. Young :—" That a meeting shall be held at
:;he Colosseum ; that all the Reform electors' of 1837 shall be
admitted who are still electors, and that all new electors since
that time, whose opinions it is impossible otherwise to know,
also shall be admitted."
Ma. VINCENT.—We understand that Mr. Vincent has re-
ceived a resuisitioo from a consideralle number of the eleeter a
of Banbury, to allow himself to be put in nomination to repre-
sent that borough in Parliament. This has been caused. by
the lectures that be had delivered in that place to the middle
and working classes, which have given him great infiumice
with the people of the town, who, we find, are subscribing to-
wards the expense that must necessarily he incurred. Sub-
scriptions to aid him are being raised also in the metropolis,
and in other places.
HASTINGS.—Mr. Frederick North expressed himself to the
electors, as approving of the free-trade principle in sugar and
timber—that, in the abstract, he thought all Corn-laws bad—
but he considered that the opportunity for safely opening the
trade in corn was now gone by, and lie dared not, at this mo-
ment, put the risk of famine on the chance of war or a com-
mercial panic. This is a plausible Peal and Stanley trap. The
old Tory Member, Mr. Planta, is again in the fled, and an
active canvass has been commenced by the Liberal Member,
Mr. Holl .nd, who is fur the abolition of the rate-paying re-
strictions of the Reform Act, Vote by Bal'ot, and the financial
measures r.f the present Government, which last, if not passed,
will allow no alternative but new taxation, to which, in any
shape, he is decidedly opposed.
HricrrortnsntitE.—Mr. Rowland Alston offers hims If for
re-election on the Reform side. The Tories have started the
Hon. Dudley Ryder as the third Tory candidate, in conse-
(Fence of which the Liberal electors have resolved to no-
mioate a second Reformer in conjunction with Mr. Alston.'
The Hon. T. Brand has received a requisition t:s this effect.
The names of Brand and Dacre are dear to the Liberals
of Hertfordshire.

LANCASTER.-11r. F. DashwoOd has declared himself a
candidata for this borcugh on the flee trade pi ineiples. Mr.
Patch was said to have been busy among the freemen a few
days since, but he will soon be dispatched.
LEwas.—The Tories are busy with meetings. Messrs. El-
phinstone and I-larford, the two Liberal candidates, have com-
menced an active canvass of the con-titueacy. Mr. IL
Fitzroy, and Mr. Carailupe, sand for the Tory party, but the
success of the Reformers is certain.
MoNnotiztismak Boaouo iis.—At a public; meeting held
at Newport, (41 Monday last, at which the To ies endeavoured
to influence the Chartists and working men, their oratory,
flashy enough, quite failed in its effects. On 'I uesday R. J.
Bltwitt, EAT., finished his canvass of the Monmouthshire
boroughs, and a more successful resultcouldnpt have been an-
ticipated : should a dissolution take place, his tettirn is eertai-).
No one has yet appeared to opfose Mr. Blewitt, nor will the
Carlton Club find one willing to embark in so forlorn a hope.
Hereford Times.

111;iterrii.— ttajor HodgFon Cadegan, a Tory, again op-
poses the Hon. Mr. Howard.— Tyne Mercury.
• NEWCASTLE.—A requ'sition had bei n signed list week in-
viting Joseph Hume, Esq., to represent Newcastle, but this
has been superseded by Mr. Hume's declaring his intention
to stand for the borough of Leeds. Attention has therefore
been turned to other parties, and Mr. Grote, the pre=ent
Member for London, has been mentioned. A local man, it is
thought might be preferable, but at any rate a popular Liberal,
in conjuLction with Mr. Ord, will hare an excellent chance of
ousting a Tory.— Tyne Mercury.
NORTHTIMBERLAND.-There is no contest talked of in
either of the divisions. Mr. Ogle will succeed Mr. Illackett
in the southern divisit,n. He declares himself the advocate of
every measure calculated to extend our, trade and manufac-
tures, and to the extention of education, and of religi.,:us and
general instruction.

- NORTH SumLns.—Canvassing is going on for Mr. Chap-
man, the banker, at North Shields, but he has not publicly
annouuced his intention of standing. At a public meeting
held at. North Shields, it was unanimously agreed to support Sir
Charles Grey, the present Liberal Member.— Tyne mercury.
NOTTINGHAM.—The disgrace Nottingham has undergone
in returning a Tory is about to be wiped off. The Chartists
have almo,t all come over to the Liberals again, and have
formed a Committee for the re-election of the Liberal candi-
dates, about whom there is little doubt. The vote of Mr.
Walter on the sugar question has done for him for ever at
Nottingham. The Liberal party are on the alert most fully,
and the Tories can enly expect defeat.
PLYMOUTH.—The success of the Liberal candidates for this
borough is certain. Mr. Gill and Mr. Fortescue delivered
their sentiments at a large meeting on Wednesday last, and
their reception was most cordial. .
SHEFFIELD.—TiIe Tories have with vast difficulty got two
of their party to contest the borough—Mr. David Urquhart,
the celebrated impeacher of Lord Palmerston, and a Colonel
Taylor, of whom nothing is yet known. A meeting of the
friends of Parker ( R), Ward (R), and free trade; was held at
the Tontine on Tuesday evening—a step which .weuld con.
vince the monopolists of a truth, which even the celebrated
Billy Holmes admits, " that the Tory candidateic have more
money than wit, or they would know Shetraeld before risking
the attempt."—Sheffield Iris.
SOUTH Stirxr.ns.—George Fyler, Esq., Coriservative, is to
oppose Mr. Ingham for this borough.
STOKE- uroN-TRENT. Mr. Lewis Ricardo, son of the
politico-economist, is the Liberal candidate, and his return
is sure.

SUNDERLAND.—Mr. Barclay, on the retirement of Mr.
White, will represent the Liberal interest.
WOLVERHAMPTON.—?Messrs. Villiers and Thornely will
probably be re-elected for this borough u ithont opposition.
YA R3lO UTn.— Here nothing but a profuse expenditure of
money can procure the Torie+ even the shadow of a chance. if
the Tories come into the field at al, they will be somewhat like
a certain brewer, who some years since came forward, and
having spent 1,500/. in the early part of the day, left, saying,
if breakfast was so expen-ive, he could not afford to stop to
dinner. Lord G. Somerset and Mr. Smythe are spoken of as
Tory candidates. From high authority it is ststed that Messrs.
Rumbold and Wilshere will again solicit the suffrages of their
old constituents.

YORKSIIIRE—(West Riding. )—Mr. Denison takes the
field under Tory auspices. Lord Milton, a powerful advocate
for free trade and the Government measure, also stands for
the Riding.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
LINCOLNSHIRE.

NORTH Mylstot4.—The present Members, Lord Worsley
( Whig) and R. A. Christopher, Esq., are likely to be again
returned without opposition. The Tories, however, have tried
to bring Charles Chaplain out, but he will not respond to the
call. Mr. Tomline, of Reby, is also spoken of as likely to op-
pose Lord ‘Vorsley. Their hopeless chance will, in our opinion,
not permit them t) incur the expense of a county opposition.
SOUTH DIVISION. —A strong opposition is expected for this
division, Christopher Turner, Esq., of Stoke Rochford (Tory)
intending to oppose the Whig Members, H. Handley and G.
J. Heatheote, Esqrs.
Gramm-. —E. Heneage, Esq. (Whig), will be returned
without opposition.
BOSTON. —The present Members, Sir J. Duke (Radical)
and J. S. Browrigg, Esq. (Tory), are expected to he returned
without opposition. If anot!vr popular Radical would come
forward the Tory would be custed.
GRA NTH AM. —No opposition is talked of here. Two Tories
sit for this borough. Why not Sir M. Cholmelcy allow himself
to be put in nomination? his success would be certain.
STAMFORD.—Two Tories will be returned again for this
borough ; whether they will be the two old Members remains
to be seen.

LINCOLN.—The noise of an election is already heard in this
ancient city, and much speculation exists as to the probable
result of the coming contest. The Tories consider tl#4 ace
sufficiently strong to return their two men, whilst' he Liberals
think there is a very great likelihood of likewise returning two
in their interest. At the election in 1837 the city of Lincoln
was warmly contested ; Colonel Sibthorp polled 514, Edward
Lytton (now Sir) Pulwer 436,the Right Hon. H. Ellis 392, and
Colonel Churchill 330. To per sons at a distance it may be
thought almost impossible to break down Colonel Sibtherp's
majority, but to the inhabitants of Lincoln such a eirctimStanee
is thought to be highly probable.

YORK, JuNt 11.
Mr. Yoike, one of the candidates to represent this city in
Parliament, arrived here last ever'.ng, and was received With
every possible demonstration Qrjoy and promise of stippett froth
the assembled thousand,;,,= who, with a band of sic, flags, &c.,
paraded the street% and afterwards showed such anxiety to hear
the manly and independent eeclarations which Mr. Yorke de-
livered ; anal certainty he rranif( sted upon this occasion more
than his usual energy in dis4busing the minds of those Of his
hearers whe entertained any doubts as to the propriety of con-
tinuing in office a Whig Administration in preference to tht
tyrannical sway of the sho t-sighted and hungry Peelites, who
are in such greedy haste to gain ascendaney over our good and
gracious Queen, and who would to a certainty cause the Eng-
lish nation, instead of loading the van in the happy march of
intellectual imprevernent, to become retrograde or supinely
stationary amid, the scoffs and sneers of as, expectant world.
That we Can return two Liberal Members there scaecely
exists a doubt. The Tory did not bleed at the last election,
and even now there arc landlords' demands unsatisfied ; and as
to the other Tory, Acherly, his supporters are only to be found
amongst the finality old-fashioned worn•out Whigs and
alarmists, who (God be thanked) ar ! grossing every day mere
scarce in this Pity.
Pray, `Jr. Editor, recommend to us a gtamleh Moriter to
coalesce with Mr. Yorke. 'I he expei,se is hot What it used to
be, when voters had to be colieetod trOm every county in the
kingdom. I know Mr. Yerkw it anxious to have-tvvo Liberals
returned for York; I heard him declare it. Yost would be
astonished at the number of young feeemen devoted 'o Liberal
principles which this city now furnishes.

30LTON, JUNE 11.—The whole body of dectors were in-
vited by special summons, last evening, to hear an address from
Dr. Bewring. It was received with the greatest enthusiasm,
and a resolution recommending him as the Reform Candidate
for the Borough, was unanimously passed. 'the Tories have
as yet made no move.
REPRP:SENTATION OF FINSBURY..—Last evening a meeting
was held at the Royal Standard Tavern, for the purpose
of adopting measures to secure the return of Liberal Mem-
bers for this division of the County. Mr. Charles Twine,
in the chair. The chairman observed that the conduct of
Mr. Thomas Slingsby Duncombe had been one of unflinching
integrity, and that as he had won the suffrages of the elec-

resolutions were subsequently passed, expressive
of the high
estimation of that Gentleman's public services, and of a de-
termination to hold a public meeting on Islington-green, with
a view to carry out their objects.
Mr. Divett's Canvass, we are happy to saw, proceeds with
the most flattering success. This reception has been in most
eases enthusiastic and a welcome has greeted him in ail—a great
many respectable Tories have expressed regret that the repre-
sentation should be disterhed. Mr. Divett commenced ye,ter-
day by canvassing St. Sidwell's; this morning St. Mary Major,
and afterwards St. Thomas. Mr. Huller accompanied him in
part of his canvass. We are authorised to state that Mr. Ben
Salter retres from the post of third man. He says that too
many of the electors °' are a snunginn, nuzzling set, he'll have
nothing to do with them.",. Western Times.
Los JOCELYN.—Lord Jocelyn has cut and run. He showed
hitnself in Dundalk—and promised the worthy burgesses to
put the town in his pocket, as his father before him used to dn. But the Dundalkians would not listen to him, as we an-
ticipated—nay, not for a moment—so he took a short stick in
his hand, and was off in a tangent. It is said he is gone to
Leeds—and some say he is gone even farther north—as far as
John-o.- Groat's House. We know not how this may he—but
he might be as well at that celebrated gentleman's domicile, as
in Leeds.--*Dnblin Evening Post.
CAPTAIN IIATTON.—This gallant sailor stands for the
county of Wexford on the Liberal interest, in the place of Mr.
scarcely warm

REPRESENTATION OF MARY-

LEBONE.

The last district meeting of the Electors of Marylebone
desirous of securing the return of two Reformers, in the per-
sons of their tried Represenlative Sir Benjamin Hall, and
Sir Charles Napier, was held last evening at Chesney's Rooms,
Foley-street, Portland place. At the hour appointed for
taking the chair, the great room, which is calculated to hold
809 persons, was completely filled. The district is that of
"Ail Souls and Trinity," but we observed the presence of
several gentlemen who reside in the district of Wcst Pancras,
and who have, at previous meetings, distinguished themselves
for noise and turbulence.

Mr. ChurchWardenGlnsow was unanimously called to the
Chair, and bespoke a fair and impartial hearing for every gen-
tleman who should offer himself to the attention of the meet •
ing.—(Applause. ) He then introduced to the meeting Com+
modore Sir C. Napier, who was received with the most en-
thusiastic and con:inued cheering. He, the Chairman,
sai I. would no doubt be as bold, straightforward, and indefa-
- tigablr, a supporter of the rights of the people in Parliament,
as he had proved himself to be the honour of Great Britain and
of cons:itutional liberty abroad.—( Cheers.) .
Sir C. NAPIER. then presented himself to tltti meeting amidst,
reiterated cheers. He first addressed hiniself to an advertise-
ment which a:II-Tared in the Morning Chronicle of yesterday
(Friday), in which the statements of the reporters were im-
pugnei, as falsely affirming that at every meeting hitherto held
in the Borough, since the Commodore's first offering himself, he
had a large majority.
A great deal of clamour war raised at this time by a very few
persons who hall placed themselves immediately in front of, an I
below, the platform, and who called upon some of the rerorters
by name. At a subsequent part of the meeting one of the Re-
porters, provoked by the frequency of allusion to . himself, rose
upon the platform, aid after a brief explanation, said that the
advertisement was abe " He was much cheered.
Mr. BRA PSHAW, la e Memter of Parliament for Sudhu-v,
who said that he had just travelled seventy miles fir the pu,-
posC of hying present at this meeting, because it was to bo held
in the district in which he resided, moved a reso'ut ion pledg-
ing the elects-re prcs7nt to support COmmodore Naiier and' Sir
Benjamin Hall.

Mr. WILSON s-con&dtho reaction, which was carried by
a majority of several hundreds to twenty-seven. _
Thanks were then unanimcwly voted to the Cha:rman, and
after three rounds of most vehement cheering for Commodore
