BOROUGH OF MARYLEBONE.

On Thursday evening a meeting of Mr. Young's friends
was held at the large Loin, 27, Marylebone-lane, which was
quite crowded.

•
Wst. Cwt., Esq., Surgeon, in the Cha.r.
The Caws Rata N detailed the objects of the meeting at some
length, and concluded by calling upon Mr. Young to address
the meeting.
Mr. YOUNG then repeated his political professions, which
coincided exactly with his former statements.
Several questions were then put to Mr. Young, in the course
of answering which he stated that he was in favour of a pro-
perty tax—he would allow a man to leave his property (as by
will) to whomsoever he liked. He did not approve of the law
of primogeniture—he would not accept place from the present
Government if he were returned to Parliament. Mr. Young
then stated that, as he believed, there was s. person named
Langham present in the room, who had accused him (Mr.
Young), of certain political offences; be now challenged that in-
dividual to come forward, state his accusations, and hear his reply.
In order to show the false and unmanly reports issued by the
Tories and the Warren-street Association, the questions of
Mr. Langham are here inserted, together with 31r. Young's

Mr.
LANGIIAM—Did you not send persons to Sir Benjamin
Hall's Committee last year, and offer to retire from the contest
if they would give you 4001. ?
Mr. YOUNG--No, Sir. I give your insinuation a flat de-
-1 nial. I sent no persons to Sir Benjamin Hall or his Committee.
Mr. LANGHAM threatened to bring forward those persons
whom Mr. Young had sent, if he persevered in going to the
poll —( Cries of " Put him out," &c.)
Mr. YOUNG—I do persevere, and challenge the parties.—
(Cheers.)
Mr. LANCHAM—Did you not belong to the Gothic Hall,
a Tory Club ?
Mr. You NO—I did belong to it. Of that club, at that time,
Sir John Byng was Chairman; Mr. Hovendon, in conjunction
with myself, was a member, and Mr. Henry Jackson was the
Secretary. Were those the names to constitute a Tory club?
—(" No, no, bravo, Young.") Mr. Young was then asked. if
he had not stood for the Borough of Marylebone at least
four times before, and always been rejected. Mr. Young re-
plied that he had stood for that borough on two previous oc-
casions. On the first occasion, he (Mr. Young) was but
little known among the electors. The polling then lasted
two days; at the close of the first day, he (Mr. Y.) saw he had
no chance; he only polled a very few votes, and in consequence he
retired. On the second occasion he polled nearly 800 votes in
two hours, at which time he (Mr. Young) was considerably
a head of Sir B. Hall, and there he should no doubt have re-
mained, had not a trick been resorted to : bills had been
printed the night before, stating that he (Mr. Young) had
withdrawn from the contest. Those bills were posted all over
the borough, stuck on cabs, omnibuses, and coaches, and it
was impossible to prevent them making an impression upon
the electors.—( Shame.)
Messrs. Duffil, Frampton, and other gentlemen then ad-
dressed the meeting. They wished to know if Commodore
Napier had never been rejected. Was he not so at Ports-
mouth and at Greenwich ?—( Loud cheers.)
The customary resolution was proposed by Mr. Duel,
seconded, and carried unanimously, only two hands being held
up in opposition. Mr. Young, as at the only other similar
meeting at which he had been present, was enthusiastically
received. Three time three for Mr. Young, three cheers for
the Chairman, who briefly returned thanks, and the meeting
separated.
