which should be formed of Col. PERRONET Tuomr-
SON. Regardless of personal convenience, and indif-
farent to the storms of virulence and vituperation, be
undertook the championship of the free-trade
dogmas when free-trade was a byeword in t' e land.
When the advocacy of the permanent opening of he
ports was little less perilous in regard to a man's re-
putation than a forlorn hope is to his body,
Colonel THOMPSON seized the standard of the outcast
free-traders, and cheered them onwards in the mur-
derous cannonading of their antagonists. He was
the BONAPARTE of free-trade, at the Arcola of protec-
tion. But the weapons he employed in conquering
the opponents of the people were the innocuous
weapons of logic and rhetoric. He flooded the whole
land with his arguments in pamphlets, in broadsides,
in speeches, in letters, in addresses, in every one of
the different forms of circulating literature, whereby
the truths of philosophy and of political economy
are made accessible even to the artizan in his
workshop. Bradford has remunerated these long and
arduous services of the veteran Reformer, and has
returned Colonel PEERONET THOMPSON as its repre-
sentative in the new Parliament.
Birmingham has acted in a similar spirit of loyalty
to the popular party by re-electing Mr. G. F. MUNTZ,
and associating with him Mr. W. SCHOLETIELD.
Canterbury has also in a great measure been actuated
by a similar enthusiasm by returning the Hon.
GEORGE SYDNEY SMYTHE and Lord ALBERT CO•
NYNGHAM ; for, notwithstanding his panegyric upon
an ideal kind of Toryism, we cannot regard Mr.
SMYTHE as anything else but a gradual Reformer.
Cheltenham, in proving itself ungrateful to a man
who has represented it with the most consistent li-
berality during the fifteen years it has been invested
with the elective franchise, has resigned itself to the
power of a Conservative nullity in the person of Sir
WILLOUGHBY JONES. The inhabitants of Cheltenham
have, in fact, by their rejection of the Hon. CRAVEN
BERKELEY (a Radical at heart), laid themselves
open to a disgraceful suspieon in connexion with
his remarks upon the liealths of Towns Bill. They
appear to have ousted the Liberal candidate out of
a petty affection for the reputation of the town ; they
have sacrificed the interests of the nation to the in-
terests of their own selfish littleness. Greenwich,
the Tower Hamlets, Lambeth, Marylebone, Stroud,
Reading, Taunton, and Manchester have, on the
contrary, looked with a nobler forethought to the
advantage of the entire community. Each of
those boroughs has returned men who are
Liberal to the backbone. We congratulate
Sergeant TALFOURD upon his re-instalment among
the national representatives, while we regret the con-
tinued rejection of Sir BULWER LYTTON by the
electors of Lincoln, out of a partiallity for a hirsute
droll like Colonel SIBTHORP. Liverpool has crowned
the success of the Liberal candidates by the trium-
phant return of Sir T. BIRCH as a Member of the
Popular Parliament.

the follies and absurdities of their leaders, and to
bJwail the sad results of their senseless divisions.

We find the following m a letter from Rome, ki4ted
July 21 :

Rome is recovering from its fright, but the indiAna-
tion and exasperation of the people against the authors
of the infernal conspiracy is difficult to describe. There
have been public prayers to render thanks to Heaven for
having preserved the population of this capital from so
great a danger. Another incident has this day arisen to
plunge the people into stupor, and to make known to us
that the plot was concocted at Vienna. You remember
the famous meeting of certain cardinals and prelates at
the house of the Ambassador of Austria. The instinct
of the people rarely deceives itself I You know what
the people thought of it, and what it desired ; and you
know box Ciceronachia succeeded in calming the effer-
vescence and saving those very cardinals who, ten days
later, were to have plunged Rome and the State into
mourning. Well ! the mask is taken off. The very day
of the execution of the Austro-Lambruschinian plan in
Rome, the Austrians were to commence by invadiig
Ferrara. The conspiracy was thwarted, as you know,
on the 15th ; but the Austrians could not expect this
providential dbuyientent, still less could they have re-
ceived notice of it. On the 16th, therefore, 1,200 Aus-
trians entered Ferrara. The good legate, Cardinal
' Ciachi, protested vigorously. The commanlant was as-
tonished at the resistance of the governor, and asked if
he had not received news and instructions from
Rome. The governor replied in the negative, and
persisted in his protest against so flagrant al vio-
lation of the territory of the Holy See. In short, the
Austrian troops returned to their quarters. The
Bilancia, in giving details relative to the conspiracy,
spoke of the intention of the Austrians to occupy the
town of Ferrara on the 16th. This journal dared, and

PORTRAIT OF LIEUT. WAGHORN, R.N.
An admirable and characteristic likeness of this
eminent man, from the original painting by Sir G.
Hayter, has just been published, and will be regarded
with profound interest by many thousands. To the
superficial observer the labours of Lieutenant Wag-
horn may appear as merely a natural
and necessary sequence of the vast rail-
way speculations which are rapidly covering
the surface of the globe with a network of iron. To
those who look onwards to the future, and estimate
the conduct of a public character with intelligence and
discrimination—viewing him rather in his influence
upon the age in which he lives, than in his individual
peculiarities,—Mr. Waghorn assumes a more
important and more dignified position. With
his name is associated the progress and im-
pulsion under his guidance
channelsl i
d for the flowing of a civi-
puzli snigo n
areo
intercourse, f
b
civilisationeing pto o:n n de
fro,
between the most bar-
barous and the most cultivated races. Time and dis-
tance have been con*ered by the etearn-engine ; it has
been the ambition of Lieutenant Waghorn to turn
that conquest to advantage, by bringing the most
remote inhabitants of Asia and Europe into compa-
rative proximity. Watt, by his genius of construc-
tion, created a machine, almost gifted with vitality ;
Waghorn, by his genius of contrivance, is affording
that vast and marvellous power opportunities for its
development. These things are being recognised by
every enlightened man in the world ; one of the most
enlightened princes on the face of the globe—Pope
Pius IX.—has afforded Lieutenant Waghorn a bril-
liant token of his approbation, by personally present
ing to him, on the 7th of January last, a gold medal-
of his most memorable pontificate. A representation
of this interesting gift from the Liberator of Italy 'is
given under the engraved likeness of Lieutenant
Waghorn, and affords an appropriate embellishment
to the portrait of one cf the most practical of the pro-
moters of the advancement and enlightenment of the
human family.

the censor permitted it to give, this grave news of an
attempt at Austrian intervention in the States of the
Church. This news caused a profound sensation. The
coincidence of the dates, the entrance of the Austrians,
at the same time that troubles were to have made the
streets of Rome run with blood, fully prove that an ably
combined plan had been prepared in advance. This in-
tervention would have been justified in the eyes of
Europe by the disturbances themselves. But God, the
Pope, and the population of Rome, disposed otherwise.
The conspiracy has been baffled, and the Austrians
have been unmasked in the eyes of the most incredulous,
and now behold them and their Roman accomplices,
ecclesiastic and laic, devoted to the execration of the
world. There is no doubt that on the same day, and at
the same hour, disturbances would have broken out in
all the towns of the Roman States; it would have been
the fête which would have been celebrated in all the
State! The Bilancia records an attempt which was
made in the church of Bologna, whilst the preacher was
holding forth on the occasion of the anniversary of the
amnesty. The details are long. Arrests of the conspi-
rators continue. Very important papers have been
seized. A new placard, bearing the names of the Cardi-
nals mixed up in the conspiracy, has been stuck
up. The names are those of their Excellencies Mon
signors Lambruschini, Bernetti, Dellagenga, Mattei,
Vanicelli, Count Lutzof, Ambassador of Austria, and
Count Ludolt, Ambassador of Naples; her Royal High-
ness Marie Louise of Parma, del Caretto. It appears
that these names were remarked and divulged by the
persons who arrested the conspirators, and seized their
papers. The list is thought correct, because that which
was stuck up on the 16th was exact. The exiled Go-
verner of Rome has arrived at Naples. Cardinal Fer-
retti signified to him in these terms his order of exile:
—' Two hours' time are accorded to the Abbe Grasse-
lint to quit the territory of the States of the Church.'
A celebrated spy, Minardi, was arrested yesterday.
More than ten thousand men traced him from house to
house from six o'clock in the evening until midnight.
The effervescence was so great that Father Ventura
had to harangue the people. The celebrated preacher
was reconducted to his own residence by the people,
carrying torches, and shouting 'Long life to Cardinal
Ventura!' This is the first time in which a Cardinal

RAIL WAY RETURNS
RAILWAY TRAFFIC.—The following are the Total
ways for the past week—that is to say, up to the
respective returns are made, together with the re,
week in the previous year:—

Many extraordinary addresses have been presented
to constituencies during the excitement and heat of
a general election, but it has seldom fallen to our lot
to peruse one more essentially sui generis than that
which has just been issued to the electors of the
county of Limerick by the recognised leader of the
Young Irelanders, the quondam martyr of the cellar.
He declares that " for a considerable time it has been
his settled wish to withdraw altogether from the
British Parliament." It is much to be regretted that
the Hon. Gentleman should so long have done
violence to his inclinations, and sacrificed his per-
sonal comforts to the good of his country. It is just
possible that the business of the country might have
been carried on, and that even the interests
of Ireland might have been attended to, though
the physical force advocate had disdained to waste
his energies on a foreign legislature, and had refused
to cast the priceless jewel of his eloquence before the
Saxon swine. He has made the notable discovery
that he could serve Ireland better as a private
individual than as an isolated Member of Parliament,
and therefore he cannot with sincerity profess that
he is desirous to retain a seat in the House of Com-
mons. We confess that we were deceived for a
moment by the nature of this opening, and conceived
that it was intended as a justification for his with-
drawal from the suffrages of the constituency. This,
however, was altogether a mistake—it was merely a
pretty coyness intended to increase the ardour of the
nalitical nolo eniscopari, which he would
have been sorry tl have seen accepted in its Literal
sense. He hastens, accordingly, to assure them that
he is not very hard-hearted, but is prepared to yield
to the prayers and intreaties that he is satisfied will
be addressed to him, and, as he has been informed,
"that a large majority of the electors are desirous
that he should continue to represent them, he
declares that if such really be their wishes,
he does not feel himself at liberty to ask them to re-
frain from carrying it into effect." Poor bashful
young man, it is indeed hard to have greatness thrust
upon you, with such unrelenting violence, that you
cannot even utter one single petition for mercy—one
humble prayer for exemption from the dreaded con-
tact with the Saxon and the stranger, or, still worse,
with the Irish repealers, who consent to a temporary
armistice, and do not incessantly hurl their hitter
defiance at the devoted heads of the English Ministry.
In one sense this tristful lamentation may be
looked upon as indicative of the gloomy prospects of
the Young Ireland party at the forthcoming elec-
tions. The hero of Cahirmoyle has no hope of even
a single congenial associate. If returned, in the lan-
guage of his own touching jeremiad, be will be " an
isolated Member." What! is there not sufficient energy
in the young blood of Ireland ? Is there not such con-
fidence in the popularity of their cause as to induce
them to make one single effort in any of the counties,
cities, or boroughs, abandoned without a contest to
ultra-Tories, Ministerialists, or mean-spirited moral
force repealers, who would not appeal to arms, even
in support of the nationality of their green island ?
It is, indeed, a pitiable topic, and one that demands a
general sympathy with the deserted chief.
Whether that compulsion and force will be applied
which the ex-martyr seems to calculate on is another
question. Mr. MONSELL, of Tervoe, who, if he has
not already joined the ranks of the Conservative
Repealers, appears to be coquetting on their very
confines, is in the field, and the moral force men in-
sist that Mr. CALEB POWELL should again be re-
turned. The various sections into which the once
united body have been divided will thus be brought
into collision in that happy county, and fierce indeed
will be the contest, for

has been reserved in pelt° by the Pope and the people.
The Homan nobility, desiring to show its gratitude to
the celebrated patriot Ciceronachia for the services
which he has rendered to the people of Rome, have

A letter from Bologna of the 21st, says—
" The details of the excesses committed by the carabi-
naers at Felenza, in the night of the 17th, are exceed-
ingly afflicting ; they lead us to form an idea of the evils
that would have occurred at Roma, if the conspiracy

dren. The carabineers who committed these excesses
have been arrested. The event has hastened the change
in the persons employed in the police ; at Bologna, the
employes of 1831 have been reinstated in their functions.
The organization of the National Guard is going on.
The principal posts of the town are to be entrusted to it
shortly. The rumour prevails that the Austrian Gene

Although the Bank had kept a stringent hand there-
fore over its circulation, and further called in its loans to
a considerable amount, as usual after the payment
of the dividends, we may hope shortly to have a relaxa-
tion. The obiect of the Bank directors is clearly to
keep out foreign loans, and induce caution in corn,
cotton, and other speculations, and so far the country
benefits ultimately by the disagreeable necessity. The
bullion is still at a point which may be reduced without
danger by one or two millions, and foreigners, if they
send us grain on their own account, must be prepared
to take payment to a liberal extent in goods, or keep
their corn at home.
The acaretty of money just now checks remittances to
the continent, and bills of exchange are supported in
value upon most of the continental cities. Referring to
the exchanges, the editor of the Bankers' Magazine
writes that—

" The decline in the continental exchange which had
begun to manifest itself at the date of our last review
continued throughout the greater part of the month, until
it reached a point only just above that when bullion
becomes the cheapest remittance. At that limit, how•
ever, it has (at present, at least) come to a pause. A
small shipment of gold—some 30,0001. or 40,0001.—has
been paid to America, where the last quotation was
1054 to 106 i. But it is not expected that the advises
now due will bring a rate of exchange and a scale of
corn prices favourable to any further remittance of gold
from hence. For the present, therefore, we appear to have
got over our drain of bullion. We are greatly beholden,
however, to the salutary influence on the continental ex-
change of the Russian purchase of British Funds. The
demand of the Russian Government for bills on Eng-
land, to the extent of two millions (or whatever may
have been the exact amount), has afforded most important
relief, in taking off the excess of paper in the northern

Another letter, from the same place, of the 24th
July, gives the following additional particulars of the
occupation of Ferrara by the Austrians :—On the
14th a battalion of Crotians, 900 strong, marched
unexpectedly from Verona, and reached, in less than
42 hours, Santa Maria Magdalena, overpowered by
heat and fatigue. In the meantime a squadron of
Hungarian cavalry, with three pieces of flying artil-
lery, proceeded from Rovigo, and arrived on the 16th,
at Vallice, opposite Francolino. Those troops having
effected their junction, occupied the passages of the
Po during the night, and early on the following
morning they sent across small parties in boats, as it
were to reconnoitre. The remainder of the corps
shortly afterwards passed the river, and, after adopt-
ing military precautions usual in campaign, advanced
on Ferrara, from which they were distant only four
or five miles. At half-past seven o'clock they entered
the city, and, having halted on the principal square,
one-half of the column repaired to the citadel, and the
other to the two barracks of Ferrara. The people,
surprised by their appearance, looked on in silence,
and confined itself to the cry of " Viva Pius IX !"

Madrid Papers of the 24th have been received.
The Progressistas have been fortunate in the elec-
tions. One-third of the Members returned to the
provincial Deputation belong to that party.

We have received the Paris papers of Thursday.
Up to the hour of post the fetes had passed off
quietly, and there was every prospect of the public
tranquillity remaining undisturbed. The following
article, contrasting the state of France, on the 29th of
.July, 1830, with that of France on the 29th of July,
1847, is well worthy the attentive consideration of the
" powers that be."

" When Greek meets Greek, then comes the tug of war,"
and obstinate must, be the encounter between such
doughty champions.

" The 29th of July, 1830 ! In whatever place you be,
comrades, happy or unhappy, you will iecal with
transport the sound of your footsteps in the vast halls of
the Tuileries, and the aspect of that throne, occupied by
a mere corpse, and those visible signs of vanquished
power rent in pieces by your hands, but which hands,
nevertheless, respected and preserved with care all those
monuments of history which did not insult you ! What
a spectacle ! Marmont flying from Paris, through
streets unpaved and by walls impregnable ! All the
public monuments open and guarded by the public faith
—the people alone masters. No police—no Government
—Hot a lamp lighting, and nut one act of dilapidation—
not one offence against property or morality ! Every-
where citizens in crowds, without distinction of classes,
united by the same love of country, by the same senti-
ment .of right, strength, and moderation ! In these
behold that which was popular victory ! Behold that
which the monarchical lees (debritus) calls by the name of
anarchy ! What have we to-day ? What have they
substituted for that effusion of patriotism—for that
union of hearts—for that palpitation of the noblest of
hopes ? That which you have seen. Poland and Italy
deceived, betrayed. The tricoloured flag folded up in
its ease as a coward—violent laws against the press—
against the association of citizens. Egotism in its ut-
most possible extreme. The hideous worship of money.
The dilapidation of principles as of finances—that, in
fine, which you ha.. e before your eyes,--' for which,' as
Bossuet said, `there is no word in any lant-zuage—All
that is order I—and the Paris of July 29, 1830, was
anarchy !
" Oh, holy anarchy I—inay all good citizens embrace
with all their love ! Let them be neither blasphemous
nor ingrates in rendering victory responsible tor, or the
accomplice of the jugglers of the following day."
The following is the reply of the Archbishop of
PARIS to a deputation of young men, who waited on
him to request that a funeral oration might be pro-
nounced on Mr. O'CONNELL

Mayo and Kilkenny counties also are torn by in-
testine commotions, while Repealers in excess offer
' themselves for the most sweet voices of the voters,
and wage a fierce internecine war. Cork city also
presents a similar instance of civil dissension, the
former Repeal Members being opposed by another,who
wavers between the charms of Conciliation Hall and
the Rotunda, and, like a political Macheath, chants to
the rival sirens—

" How happy could I be with either,

But while you both tease me together,

their fatherland. A golden opportunity is now be-
fore them which, if once suffered to escape, may never
be restored. If due advantage is taken of it, if the
hands of the Ministry—by whom every important con-
cession hasbcen made tolreland,who are actuated by the
most friendly feelings towards her, and whose chief
Idesire is to place her on a footing of perfect equality
with England, to promote a real and lasting union
hetween the countries, based on mutual advantage,
to encourage, by every means, the full development
of the national resources of Ireland, and to elevate
her in the social scale—are strengthened and
supported, all these desirable ends will be attained,
and prospercus and happy Ireland will at length be-
come what she ought to be.—

" A similar request has been already addressed to me

EXTENSIVE CONFLAGRATION.
Yesterday morning, between the hours of two and
three, Strand-on-the-green, Chiswick, was visited with
one of the most alarming and destructive conflagrations
that has occurred in that neighbourhood for a long time
past. From inquiries made, it appeared that the first
discovery was made by a police-constable of the T
division, at which period a large timber building, 80 feet
long by 30 feet wide, the property of Mr. Duer, but un-
tenanted, was wrapped in a general blaze. The officer
immediately raised an alarm in the usual way, and after
some trouble he succeeded in arousing the inmates of
the surrounding houses. Ile had scarcely done so be-
fore the flames had communicated to the dwelling-
house of Mr. Harradine,- a barge-builder, and from thence
nearly 50 feet long and 20 broad. Owing to the
to another timber building, the property of the same
party,
inflammable nature of the premises, the fire extended
with such teariul rapidity as to threaten destruction to
the whole neighbourhood. With all possible expedition
two parish engines arrived, followed by a private one
one from Kew. The machines were without loss of time
set to work from the River Thames, and a powerful
stream water was thrown upon the burning property,
but without subduing in the least degree the destructive
elemtnt. The tire still progressing, a mounted police-
man was sent up to London for the fire brigade, and
forthwith the engine from King-street, Regent-street.
,tarted to the scene of the confiaeration, when the fire-
men tound the premises in which the flames began,
toirether with a loft between 80 and 90 feet long. and a
number of other similar buildings, levelled with the
ground. After some trouble the parish engineers and
London firemen got out what remained of the fire, but
not until a deal of Other property, beside that stated
above was destroyed.

CITY OF LONDON SCHOOL.—The annual examina-
tion of scholars and distribution of prizes of the City of
Londim School, took place yesterday in the theatre of
the school, Milk-street, cheapside. The Right Hon.
the Lord Alayor presided. There were also present a
large number of aldermen and influential City merchants.
The proceedings commenced with an address by Dr.
Mortimer, the head master of the school, in which he
gave an account of the present state of the school, by
which it appeared that there were at present upwards
of 600 scholars in the schools, the maximum number
allowed, and that there were now upwards of seventy
applications on the books for admission. The prizes
were then delivered with suitable remarks ; and several
gentlemen spoke in terms of satisfaction touching the
mode in which the benefits of the Institujon were
conferred.
SINGULAR ACCIDENT BY SWALLOWING A STONE.
—Yesterday an accident of a most remarkable character
occurred to a boy, named Henry Wallace, aged four
teen years, whose parents reside at Bexley, ikcot, and
from the peculiar nature of the case it is considered one
which may terminate fatally. It seems that the unfor-
nate boy is the con of respectable parents, carrying on
business at Bexley, Kent. He left home for some pur-
pose, and whilst amusing himself on the way be care-
lessly picked up a small stone, which he placed in his
mouth, where it remained until he commenced running
along the road with considerable speed. After he had
pro4ressed some distance he suddenly stopped, as he
found that he had swallowed the stone, which he en-
deuveured to bring tip, but his ofiorts were all in vain.
He returned to his father's residence, where he informed
the family of what had taken place. They were much
alarmed, as he became unwell and breathed with great
difficulty. A surgeon was called, who, after a careful
examination, suggested his immediate removal to Guy's
Hospital, where he was at once seen by Mr. Edward
Cock and other eminent gentlemen. The stone is still
in the trachea, and at present he remains in a very
favourable condition, under the care of Mr. Beaumont,
the assistant-surgeon for the pi eseet week.
The election returns up to this date show an in-
crease to the Liberal party, deducting the Tory acces
sion of about twenty members.

OFFICIAL DECLARATION OP VR2, POLL.
RETURN OF MESSRS. CHARLES _:fEARSON
AND TENNYSON D'EYNCoURT.

Ten o'clock was the time fixed by Mr. G. Onslow, the
returning officer of the borough, for the official dt clara-
tion of the poll.
Long before that hour Kennington common exhibited
all the usunl bustle and crowds attendant upon a con-
tested election. The supporters of Mr. C. Pearson, with
pink and white colours, seemed fully alive to the impor-
tance of the victory they had achieved, and, joined by
the friends of Mr. D'Eyncourt, gave expression to their
feelings of exultation with all the pride of glorious
triumph.
Shortly after ten o'clock Mr. D'Eyncourt and Mr.
Charles Pearson made their appearance on the hustings,
and were received with loud and long•continued demon-
strations of applause.
About eleven o'clock, Mr. Onslow, the returning
officer, came forward, and said that it would be quite
unpossible for him to complete the casting up of the
returns before half-past twelve o'clock at least, and if
any of the electors wished to go away and amuse them-
selves on the common, they were at full liberty to do so.
A considerable number of persons accordingly took ad-
vantage o this announcement, and occupied their weary
hours with " three throws for a penny" at snuff-boxes
and other articles, which the more enterprising of the
Lambethians had provided as a source of amusement to
the public and profit to themselves. Othf ra preferring
more substantial enjoyments, rushed helter skelter to the
Horns Tavern, where, partaking of liberal potations of
" heavy wet," they discussed the merits of the several
candidates, and warmly expressed their opinions as to
the policy, past and future, of those placed in authority
over them.

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF

LAMBETH.
BEN H-- ! as an M.P. in Lambeth was known,
Till becoming the tool of My Lord ;
The electors he sold, so big he had grown,
That he laughed at e'en breaking his word.

For staunch to pension was thrit'ty•gra3p BEN,
Mean and cringing was he to get place ;
Yet he cut down the wages of his poor workmen,
As a skin-flint, thought it no disgrace.
The rate-paying clause he helped to prolong,
For the dread cat-o'-nine-tails he voted ;
The bishops to increase he didn't think wrong,
And the horrid poor-law he supported.
At length the electors of Lambeth began
To find BEN to his colours wasn't true ;
In the year Forty seven they all to a man
Lett BEN'S ship, for the rot was in view !

Half-past twelve, however, at length arrived, and the
Returning Officer having made proclamation for silence,
,tated, upon casting up the numbers pulled at the vari-
ous polling places, he found as the result, that the
numbers were for--

Charles Pearson, Esq. ... 4,614
The Right Hon. I'. D'Eyncourt 3,708
Benjamin Hawes, Esq. ... 3,344
It was, therefore, his duty to declare Charles Pearson,
Esq., and the Right. Hon. Charles Tennyson D'Eyn-
court as Members to represent the borough of Lambeth
in the ensuing parliament.
The announcement was received with tremendous
cheering.
Mr. Hawes appeared on the hustings and heard the
result with the greatest composure.
CHARLES PEARS 'N, Esq., then came forward to ex-
press his thanks for the honour conferred upon him.
His forte lay more in the conflict than in victory;
and he hoped, therefore, that they would forgive him it
he wanted words sufficient to express his thanks.—
(Cheers.) It was his determination to redeem the
pledges he had made. They all bad a lesson that, how-
ever worthily a man might perform his duties, would,
if he lost the confidence of the people, be unable to sus-
tain his ground with the electors of Lambeth, and he
hoped that the country would not lose the valuable ser-
vices, as Colonial Secretary, of his Hon. Friend whom he
had now supplanted in the affections of the people of
Lambeth.—(Loud cheers.) He felt deeply grateful to
all the members of the committee for the kindness they
had done him, but more especially for the display of
those principles on his behalt which they had entrusted
him to carry out. He felt satisfied that having received
so many marks of favour from the electors of Lambeth
that it would be unnecessary for him to do otherwise
than to cut short what he had to say to them on the pre.
sent occasion. He would say, with respect to his sup
potters splitting their votes at an early period of the
day, that they had acted only in conformity with their
2ledges that they would continue to give him plumpers
until they thought that he was perfectly safe. But with
respect to what they did, he personally knew nothing,
and had not by word, by message, or by gesture, re
commended such a course of conduct. In conclusion,
he thanked the returning officer for the ability with
which he had discharged the various duties of his office,
and hoped that when they met again it would be upZin

culated to the effect that unfair play had been used to-
wards Mr. Hawes.—(A ►oice—" Hear, hear.") Yes,
let them hear him.
Mr. HAWES—That " hear" did not come from me.

Mr. VEYNCOURT was glad to hear that observation
from his Hon. Friend. He felt convinced that fifteen
years of close and affectionate friendhip with that gen-
tleman had fully induced that gentleman to believe that
he :(Mr. D'Eyncourt) was not capable of acting with
anything like trickery on his part towards him. He as-
sured them that neither directly or indirectly had he
had any connexion with Mr. Pearson's cone.
mittee. "He most deeply regretted that any cir-
cumstances should have arrived to separate him
from his Hon. Friend, Mr. Hawes, whose talents well
fitted him for a much higher sphere of usefulness in the
Government than that which he at present occupied.
He was aware that this was a poor compl ment to Mr.
Hawes, but other and even larger constituencies had
already very plainly hinted to her Majesty's Govern-
ment their dislike of the course lately pursued by the
Government. The Tower Hamlets, Edinburgh, Not-
tingham, had spoken very plainly on the subject, and
he hoped tnat the Government would take warning by
that voice, and amend their Education Bill, extend the
suffrage of the people, and withhold their hands from
he unconstitutional and centralising system now fast
spreading over the country.—(Loud cheers.) 'With re-
spect to the colleague they had given him he had no
doubt that he would be industrious, and as he had kindly
promised to make up for his defects and abience,
ne, on the other hand, as the older Mcxaber.
would make up for him what his youth and inexperience
might require in the performance of his duties.—
(Laughter and cheers.) Mr. Pearson said he would
work double time now, if he (Mr. D'Eyncourt) would
single time. They would then have as good as three
representatives for the borough of Lambeth.—(Laughter
and cheers.) Hu hoped to be able again to meet them
very shortly. Ile hoped at a period not more distant
than throe years.—(Cheers.) And he toped, that upon
that occasion, so far as he was concerned, that he should
justify the choice they had made. He hoped _that they
would, upon his account, patiently hear the address of
his late hon. colleague, Mr. Hawes.
Mr. IlAwEs then came forward, and was received with
hisses and other sorts of disapprobation. He said, Gen-
tlemen, I shall adhere, in the few observations which I
have to address to you, to that rule which I have pre-
scribed for myself throughout the whole of this conflict
—throughout the whole excitement of the contest—that
rule which has forbidden me to carry into a political
contest anything like personal bitterness or animosity;
and I may to-day, I think—the defeated candidate—l may
say that if any of you have felt anger and aninmsity, let
let those feelings, at least, be buried altogether, and let
none of these angry results of a contested election
affect the revolution of what has passed in the course of
the last few days—(Cheers). Adhering, then, to that
rule, and strictly confining myself to general and public
topics, and not wishing my Right Honourable Friend,
and the Honourable Gentleman who has been elected
now as your Member, to understand for one mo-
ment, that if I make any comment at all whiyh sa-
vours of personality, it is other than founded upon
public principles and public principles alone.—
(Cheers and laughter.) I stand before you, then, a
defeated candidate, but not dishonoured.—(Cheers.) I
am cieprived of the high and proud position which I re-
cently held among you. lam resentful to none who
have taken a part in committing that act, which I, as an
individual, and with all humility, dam to be an act of
injustice.—(Cheers.) I am not going to make any
childish complaints about it. I have fought the
battle manfully, and I may yet do so again,
and therefore do not suppose for a moment that I shall
shrink upon this occasion from vindicating icy principles
at,d conauct to that great body of electors v.ho have
come forward so independently and honourably to sup.
port me.—(Cheers.) I stat, d on a former occasion that
I would state what I deemed to be the cause ot the failure
of my election, and in doing so I shall disappoint seine
of ) ou. I shall disappoint, I am afraid, the Honourable
Gentleman who has supplanted ma io your confidence,
for I shall not call it a " triumph of principle."—(A voice,
"It is.") I shall call it a triumph of " a lucky acci-
dent."—(Oh, oh, and laughter.) And I will tell this
peat meeting the reasons, clearly and shortly, why I
take the liberty to say so.—(Bravo and cheers, mingled
with hisses.) I was engaged in the tib;:orbirg and lato-
nous duties ef Parliami nt ; and I will say, even though
it savours of a boast, in the discharge ,:f the duties of an
office, than which none motel ibortous, I will veiittir, to say
is within the girt of the Minister of the Crean.--
(Cheers.) And while I was discharging my public
duties (Mind, I don't complain of it, I am simply stat-
ing the fact-), tart while I was discharging my public
duties, the Hon. Gentleman, who has attained the highest
distinction in ibis borough to which he can attain, wars
successfully arranging his election, anti planning his return.
There was another cause, one upori which I am anxi,ats
to addrefs a few words to the working cla,ses of this
great borongh. You are aware of the, vast increase of
voters for this borough which has talon place upon the
register within the lust year or two ; a very large pro-
portion of that class could have known nothing of nie—

did know upon which they could decide as to my merits

been brought to my knowledge, which was absolutely
