NOTTINGHAM ELECTION.

DEFEAT of MB. WALTER. HIS CLAP TRAP,
AND TAE TOIIIES.—RETURN OF SIR JOHN
CAM HOBHOUSE AND MIL LARPENT FOR

NOTTINGHAM.

MESDAY.—This has been a grand day. The rene-
gade Walter has fled the field without offering
the shadow of a fight at the poll- booths.
The Liberals were determined to gain the upper
hand, and took possession of the polling-booths at
five o'clock in the morning, where they maintained their
stand. At a quarter past eight o'clock, just after the
poll closed, Mr. Walter and Mr. Charton resigned the
contest. leaving it to Sir John and Mr. Larpent. But
the voters would not be taken by a Tory trick to leave
their places. They kept on polling till a quarter past
nine; and- then ;the numbers stood thus; the poll
being closed :
Larpent
Sir J. Hobhouse • 527
Mr. Walter
Mr. Charlton 142
The Tories were never more beaten since they were
a party ; they led all their supporters to believe that the
election was safe for them. How their predictions were
verified has been shown. They look more blue
than their own colours. Mr. Walter has gone to
Leicester to be put up there. He has no chance. Poor
fellow ! the Tories have cut him up dreadfully in the
cash line. The chairing takes place to-morrow, and is
expected to be a very grand one.
