Campbell. •

CANTERBURY.
THURsDAY.—The nomination of candidates for this
city took place this day. There are four gentlemen in
the tield—the Hon. Mr. Smythe, a liberal supporter of
Sir Robert Peel, and a member of his Government; Lord
A. Conyngham, a Whig; Lord Clinton and Mr. Vance,
Conservatives or Tories There has been a junction of
effort and interests on both sides.
Mr. Smythe and Lord A. Conyngham s. The supporters of
have united, and
those of Lord Clinton and rVance have done the
same. So that, for all practical purposes, the election
has been conducted as if there were
l only two candidates.
The nomination was fixed for o'clock, and at that
hour the Cattle-market was crowded.
The contending parties were escortedtothe scene of
with the
action by their friends in procession,umsuleac-
companiments of banners and music; the display
the Conservative party was the most effectiveand by
con-
spicuous. Lord A. Conyngham was not present, having
met with an accident; a handbill, stating the fact, and
containing a certificate from his Lordship's medical at-
tendant, was issued in the course of the morning. The
usual preliminaries having been gone through,
The SHERIFY (Mr. W. J. Cooper) opened the proceed-
ings in a brief address, exhorting them to give every
candidate a fair bearing.
Alderman BRENT proposed Lord A. Conyngham as a
fit and proper person to represent the city of Canterbury
in Parliament.
Alderman PLUMMER seconded the nomination.
Mr. Wool-rola proposed the Hon. G. P. S. Smythe,
eulogizing the manner in which that gentleman had dis-
charged his public duties.
Mr. W. SLADDON seconded the nomination.
Mr. GURNEY CROASDAILL proposed Lord Clinton, and
the nomination was seconded by Mr. W. SMITHSON.
Mr. J. Vance was proposed by Mr. Prtu.l.Porrs, and
seconded by Mr. HOLTTUM.
The Hon. Mr. SMYTHE then addressed the electors.
In the opening of his speech he referred exclusively to
local and personal circumstances connected with the con-
test, and in particular to the conduct of Mr. Smiths( n,
the seconder of Lord Clinton, who had been a supporter
of Mr. Smythe, and is the editor of a local journal. In
this paper the Hon. Gentleman said ha had been misre-
presented by" mutilations of his speeches, and otherwise.
There is also a squabble about the right of property in
certain flags, which, having belonged to Mr. Smythe or
his committee, are said to have been appropriated by the
other party. who had used them in their procession with
some of the inscriptions altered by the suppression of Mr.
Smythe's name and the substitution of Lord Clinton's.
The lion. Gentleman also charged his former friends
with receiving money from him for the purposes of
the registrat,on committee long after they knew his
votes and opinions on religious questions, now made the
ground of objection, and then using the registration
books he had paid for against him. Having disposed of
Mr. Smithson and his "idiotic gazette," and taunted
his opponents with using what did not belong to them,
when it would have been more creditable to have ap-
peared " with their own breeches pockets for banners,"
the Hon. Gentleman gave a truce to local politics, and
turned to questions of more general interest. He was
in favour of the great principles of free trade, which
had been carried by Sir R. Peel at a most costly sacri-
fice, regardless of anything but the welfare and well-
being of the great commonwealth of England.—
(Cheers.) He was in favour of that principle, and its
still further extension and development. He believed,
consistently with having a great increase upon the Cus-
toms' duties, they might reduce the duties on tea and
tobacco.—(Cheers.) Should he be returned to Parlia-
ment, as he had no doubt he should be, he should lose
no occasion of furthering and promoting that principle.
—(Cheers.) One word on the question of suffrage. He
had been misrepresented as an advocate of universal
suffrage, because he opposed the principle of finality.
Many persona declared themselves opposed on
principle to any extension of the suffrage beyond the
limit of the 101. householder; he understood and re-
spected that principle, but it was not his; he would not
vote for any crude measure, introduced abruptly and in
a factious manner, for the extension of the franchise;
but he could foresee the day when by the immense ile-
velopement of wealth and population, consequent upon
the operation of the principles of ree trade, and the
more general diffusion of intelligence, they would all be
entitled to the franchise.—(Cheers.) He wished to
shirk no subject. It had b, en said he was a favourer
of the Roman Catholics, because he had voted for the
grant to the College of Maynooth. He wished to put
this question broadly, and in reference to it he would
appeal to their pockets. William 111., whom the gen-
tleman opposed to him much admired, once wished that
Ireland was a thousand miles off; but as Ireland existed
and was not a thousand miles off, they could only govern
it in one of two ways, by conciliation or by the sword.
If they determined to govern it by force, the people of
England would be the first to cry out against it; for to
do so a war establishment must be kept up, which the
people would be taxed to maintain.—(Cheers). If to
govern by force was a Conservative principle, and if they
advocated it in Ireland, he told them the principle was
miscalled, that it was traught with insurrection and big
with civil war.—(Cheers). He wished to correct an error
that had been ascribed to him in the report of a speech
recently published. It had been supposed that he at-
tacked the aristocracy, because in speaking of the Ad-
ministration of Sir R. Peel, he had said, at one time, it
stagnated beneath the slime of aristocratic approbation.
He applied the phrase to the inertness and stagnation
which prevailed under their auspices; and he would add
this—it was for the aristocracy to vindicate themselves
from the reproach; it was for them to justify themselves
in the eyes of England; it was for them to say that they
would not be connected with any policy to which the
term stagnation could be applied.—(Cheers.) Let
them support those principles which they all knew must
prevail whoever was returned—the principles of progress.
—(Cheers.) Let the aristocracy put themselves at the
head of the movement, and they might depend upon it,
in the words of Mr. Cobden, that most eloquent public
man, the people of England would follow the aristocracy.
But it was somewhat too much, too insolent, too out-
rageous on their intelligence, for gentlemen to come
forward to contest the honour of representing that city
with the opinions and prejudices of their ancestors of
two centuries ago.—(Cheers.) They must recollect what
the English aristocracy was; it was, happily, in a com-
mercial country, a young aristocracy, full of life and lusty
vigour. An aristocracy in a commercial nation was in
the commercial class, and nothing could be so absurd as
that it should come forward, like a young actor
playing an old part, and imitate decrepitude, adopting
opinions and principles as obsolete and ancient as they
would have them believe are their scutcheons and pedi-
grees.—(Cheers.) His opponent, Mr. Vance, had asked
if he was a Tory of the year 1689? He would frankly
reply he was; had he lived in those days he should have
been a Tory; but Mr. Vance was not, perhaps, aware
that such was the confidence of William 111. in the
honesty of the party, that he formed half of his first
Ministry of Tories; and as he grew in years he grew in
wisdom—his last Ministry was entirely composed of
them.—(Cheers.) Having answered Mr. Vance's ques-
tion, perhaps he would permit him to give him a piece
of advice—a certain countess once said to her niece,
" We must part; you have no character at all, and I
have not enough for two."—(Great laughter.) Were he
Mr. Vance, he should say to Lord Clinton—" We must
retire; you have no intelligence, and I have not enough
for two.'—(Cheers.)
Lord CLINTON, on coming forwrd, was warmly cheered
by his supporters. He reproved his opponent for re-
sorting to personalities, and defended Mr. Smithson.
He expressed his sense of the kindness with which
he had been met by the constituency of Canterbury,
and stated that he came forward to give a large
section of them an opportunity of supporting their
principles. Judging from the sentiments expressed
towards them, he had no doubt he and his colleague
would be in the majority. He deeply regretted the
absence of Lord Conyngham and its cause, and then
bristly recapitulated the principles on which he had
come forward. He stood mainly on the principle of
Protestantism—against that creed which was constant
in its efforts to annihilate what he had been taught was
the truth. He was opposed strongly to all endowments
of the Catholic Church, and exhorted them to bear in
mind that the Catholic Powers and the Vatican were
watching the issue of the election. Let them not afford
that Vatican one cheer of triumph. On politicalhqouuens:
tions he professed perfect independence; he wttaesd or
and-
to neither party, nor was he biassed by
tiquated notions. He should be anxioeulaebstsiog:tiumderneedkalensds

Three cheers were given for Lord Cony n Miura as a
substitute for his speech.
Mr. VANCE called on the inhabitants of the seat
of the Primate of England to choose representatives
of Protestant and English principles. Those of Mr.
Smythe he could not characterise, though, as he
called himself a Tory, he would accept the defini-
tion. Having referred to the disputed matter
of the colours, which he thought a very trifling one, he
denied it was a Quixotic enterprise to come to contsst
Canterbury at the request of all the clergy of the Esta-
blishment, of the middle class, and with the support,
which he greatly valued, of the artisans. The first
leading principle on which he stood was to oppose farther
concessions to the Roman Catholics. Ile approved of
the measure of Catholic emancipation, but be insisted
that the compact made on behalf of the Establishment
and the maintenance of its revenues ought to be observed.
He was the ❑islvecate of free trade before Mr. Sinyahe;

MARYLEBONE.
There is no mistake about there being a bard.fottght
election in this borough, and as little doubt about its
being the determination of every one of .the candidates
to go to the poll. Three o'clock yesterday after-
noon was appointed by the Returning Officer,
David Salomon,, Esq., for the nomination of the
candidates, but long before that beur the tocsin of pre-
paration for the coming conte►t was sounded, and the
neighbourh,od of Portland-place, the seat of electioneer-
iug warfare in the borough of Mary lebone, was the
scene of the greatest exc tement. Flags flying,
bands playing, placard hoisting, were the order of the

day. Around the hustings hundreds were collected at
an early hour, and in every serePt leading .o Fortland-
place crowds might be beeo hurrjit,g to the scene ur
Action.

Poor 3:Guy lebone—

Deserted at her utmost ceed,"

"By those her former bounty fed,"
but by her favourite son, she has now the arduous task
to perform of quelling if she can the insubordinate dis-
position of those children who claim her maternity, and,
who, for the sake of their own ends, care not what be-
comes of their guiltless but too confiding parent. Mary-
Ishone may truly now e,xclaira—" I was ushered into the
world as a Liberal by my parent, the Reform Bill.
As such, I have continued during my whole
life, but now my own undutiful offspring are endeavour-
ing to hurl me into the vortex of Protectionism,
Toryism, and Conservatism by their own foolish acts,
and their want of unity of action.
Sir James Hamilton arrived shortly before three
o'clock, and was met with cheers, hisses, and waving of
handkerchiefs, especially from the ladies.
Sir B. Hall arrived next, and was loudly cheered. The
worthy Baronet was accompanied by several hundreds of
his supporters on foot.
Mr. R. Owen, in presenting himself on the hustings,
was met with cries of " Labour for ever," "Down with
all aristocrats."
Mr. Sergeant Shee took his place on the hustings
without the least demonstration of his appearance by the
electors.

Lord Dudley Stuart's appearance on the hustings was
greatly cheered.
The accommodations for the press were wretched in
the extreme. We have often had, and that with plea-
sure, to return our thanks to Mr. Salomons for his atten-
tion to the comforts of the press, but on this occasion the
less we say about him the better. We were obliged to stand
during the whole time in front of the hustings, and take
notes how we could. Every one seemed accommodated
but the press, without whose aid the whole
proceedings, as far as the addresses of the can-
didates were concerned, would have become a nullity.
For onr part our readers mast excuse us if we only give
an outline of the proceedings, the accommodation afforded
Ala leaving no other alternative.
We understand that the hustings coat 1501. more
than on the last occasion, and we unhesitatingly pro-
nounce they were 1501. worse.
The usual legal proceedings having been gone through,
DAVID SAI.OMONS, Esq., entreated a patient hearing
for all parties.
Mr. ROVE:WEN then came forward to propose Sir
Benjamin Hall as a fit and proper representative for
Marylebone in Parliament; but we are sorry to say his
speech was repeatedly interrupted by the carpenters in
attempting to make the hustings stronger, ar:d remedy
the blunder they have had a week to consider.
After the hammer had ceased to resound,
and the eetlety of her Majesty's lieges bad
been in some measure secured, Mr. Hovenden pro-
ceeded; but he was again interrupted by the exhibition
of a dead cat, stuck on a placard, with the words " Be-
ware of the Savages there. The Hon. Gentleman con-
cluded, amid loud uproar, by proposing Sir B. Hall as a
fit and proper - person to represent Marylebone in
Parliament.
Mr. SMART seconded the nomination of Sir B. Hall.
Mr. KEMSHEAD then came forward, amid the greatest
uproar, to propose Sir J. Hamilton. We could not
catch a single word that was uttered by this gentleman.
Mr. C. HYDE seconded the nomination of Sir J. Ha-
milton amid greater uproar.
Mr. JOHN Woon then came forward to propose Mr.
Sergeant Shee. They were called upon to return two
Members to Parliament. Marylebone had alw; ys done
its duty, and returned two Liberal Members' and
he had no doubt it would do it aeau. They
bad been deserted disgracefully by one man, but the
gentleman he proposed would never adopt so infamous a
course.(Cheers.) As a Churchman trim his cradle,
he conscientiously beleved that Mr. Sergeant Shee
ought to be the man of their choice, although he was a
Catholic.—(Cheers.)
Mr. BRAMWALL seconded the nomination of Mr.
Sergeant Shee.
Mr. GEORGE DANIELS then came forward to propose
Lord Dudley Stuart, and was most enthusiastically
cheered.
Mr. CASSELL seconded the nomination of Lord Dudley
Stuart. He could not believe that the borough of Mary-
lebone could ever do otherwise than return two Liberal
candidates to Parliament.
Mr. LOYD JONES proposed Mr. Robert Owen, as a
it and proper person to represent the borough of
Marylebone in Parliament. The gentleman whom
be had the honour of proposing had been long
-well known to the British public, and had never shrunk
from a full and explicit declaration of his principles—
principles which he believed calculated to promote the
Lest interests of the public. He was the originator of
the infant school system and of the agitation for the
xedaetion of the hours of labour in factories, and had
menstantly devoted his labours and fortune to the in-
sterests of the working classes of this country.
Mr. WILLIAMS seconded the nomination.
,Sir B. HALL then stood forward, and was received
whit considerable cheering. He might, he believed,
rely upon the endeavours of the electors of that borough
to sea= return him as their representative to the Com-
mons Rouse of Parliament. When he was first elected
it was on the principles that he had never
'ceased to maintain and promote to the
utmost of his power ; he had never broken any of the
pledges which he had made to his constituents.—(A
-voice "Go along with Whittle Harvey.") It was un-
necessary for him to detain them at any length, his
principles being already well known, and he confidentle
Joeked to the result of the poll to-morrow to return hie.
ssgain as their Member.
Sir JAMES HAMILTON next came forward, and his
doinz, so was the signal for the commencement of a storm
of cheers and hisses. Silence being partially restored,
he endeavoured to obtain a hearing for himself. All thar
we were able to collect of his remarks was, that
be has come forward at the earnest solicitation
of p large number of the electors of the
borough ; that he was confident that the resuL of
the poll to-morrow would be to place him in a majority,
and to return him as their representative.
he was returned he would constantly make it his en-
deavour to discharge his duties as their repre-
sentative, And he would be always accessible to th,
electors on !every subject upon which they might wish te
consult him. If they did not return him, all that lie
could say was, that he would look blue, which was his
own colour.
Mr. Sergeant SMEE said his principles were pretty
weell known, and he thought they were such as woue.
indiace them to give him a plumper. He was in farthe
of vote by ballot, and for the mere general diffusion of
education; on the great question of endowments he ha,
etude to his text, and he had never changed his opirtions
or expressions for the sake of gaining a tew votes upo:
his Hon, Candidate; and affirmed that he would go to th.-
pa], notwithstanding the apostacy of Mr. D. W. Harvey
With respect to Sir B. Hall, he might say, that as long a-
he stood there they were in pleasant company. With re-
spect to Lord Dudley Stuart he would speak in the tone
of expostulation. Whose fault was it that the Liberal lute
rest is divided? He came first into the field.—(Cheers.)
He taught him a grand political lesson, and he cam'
bees in the eleventh hour to oppose him. He agreed
that ,a ballot should take place, and he asked the Noble
Lord whether he would assert that the person standing
second was to be bound by the result? He went into the
country to attend the assizes, and on the Fri-
day, when Mr. Harvey had ran away—(Groans)—
on his return to town he found a cool letter from the
Noble Lord requesting him to retire. From this time
made up his mind that only one lawyer should
desert the constituency ; and he felt, that not-
withstanding those prejudices which had been fostered
'against him on account of his religion—prejudices
.which the Noble Lord would despise—he should

eleei'C' that resignation was not one of the virtues of
Berp.eoeet Shee. He felt convinced that what the electors
of this ,Nprough wanted was not persons who merely held
the same principles as they did, but persons who could
give exycession to those opinions in th,
House or Commons. As Sheridan said long
since, "it was no use for a man to have tht.

when he wanted." He would, in conclusion, assure the
electors of Marylebone that he would never give in, anti
it was fur them to decide with whom should be the vic-
tory, and woe to those parties who had promised him
their votes but refused to keep their pledges. The
Lammed Gentleman retired amid loud cheers, and was
followed by
LordpuDLEV STUART, who said, his learned opponent
hat i a very strong voice; but perhaps it might not sound
SO .locidly to-morrow.—(Laughter) He stood before

the a tried and staunch Reformer
and ,eue of the grand aims of his life had been to
avoid dividing the Liberal interest. He hao
freely Consented to abide by the result of a bal-

eself, but he thought it must be nothing short of a gross
&elusion as to the opinions of the people of Marylebone
high could have thus induced him to divide the Li-
