ELECTORS OF WESTMINSTER,

Central Committee-room, Ship, Charing-cross, Feb. 17, 1846.
rir.lE unexpected contest in which we are now
engaged, and the shortness of time for preparation and
canvass render it impossible for General EVANS to call upon you,
or individually to ask your votes and interest. But Westminster
never did require solication to do its duty, when the cause of con-
sistency—of public principle—and of the whole British people, was
fairly placed before the electors. This is the case now. The cause
in which General Evans stands forward, demands all your sympa-
thies, and claims all your energies. That cause, beyond all doubt,
will be saccessfal on this occasion, and a large majority will pro-
claim ITS triumph, and YOUR freedom, from representatiom by a
Placeman. Sti e call upon you to lose not a moment to record your
votes for General Evans, and for the best interests of the community
at Iarge—ENTIRE FREEDOM OF TRADE— CIVIL AND RE
LIGIOUS LIBERTY—JUSTICE TO IRELAND —AND TOTAL
ABOLITION. OF ALL PARTIAL AND CLASS LEGISLATION.
For the Committee,
EDWARD P. ROUVERIE, Chairman.

BREiCiI OF PRIVILEGE.

33 r. COLLETT gave notice that it washis intention,
instead of moving fur a Select Committee, to move for
a Committee of Privilege, in reference to breaches of
some privilege committed by Noble Lords, Members of

mention.—(A laugh.)

THE WAR IN INDIA.

Sir R. INGLIS wished to put a question in reference
to the recent outbreak in I Writ. He wished to know if

as connected with that outbreak ; and if they had, that
it might be communicated to the House.
Lord JOCELYN, in reply, state#l that no official in-
formation had been received by Government in reference
to that transaction. No official dispatch had been re-
ceived; but a nrivate letter had been received from the
Governor of Bombay, dated December 23, inclosiug a
private communication from the Government of India,
'which informed them that large bodies of the Seikh
troops crossed the Sutlej, against whom the British
troops advanced on the 18th of that month; but after
a march of three hours they had to give up, in con-
sequence of the extreme darkness of the night
The first entrenchment was taken on the 21st. Since
this private letter no communication had been received
by her Majesty's Government ; but when the dispatches
of Sir Henry Hardinge were received, they would no
doubt be highly satis&actory.
Mr. F. FRENCH wished to put a question to the
Right Hon. the Rome Secretary, as to the removal of
the toa.7d of guardians at 'roam, near Castleragh,
Ireland. Ile wished to know why they were removed ?

positively reribed to open the workhouse or even to
administer the poor-laws, and the consequence was. that
the Poor-law Commissioners were forced to remove ttiem.l
Mr. SHARMAN CRAWFORI) had to request from
Sir Robert. Peel an answer to the following question:—
Whether it is the intention of her Majesty's, Government
to propose to Peril:anent any measure on the subject of
the law of landlord and tenant in Ireland?

Sir R PEEL said taiv,t certainly did hope that her
314:lay's Goverametut would be enabled to thtrociuee
.•

measure on the subiem referred to by the lion. Me fiber.
Mr. COLQUIIOLLY begged leave to ask a question
of the lion. ttleat'uer -for Cork. lle wi,hect to know
whether it was his intention to press the motior, of
which he had given notice, to-morrow (Tuesday)

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY.
From the opening of the room to its close, Mermaid was the most
prominently in demand 'of the Chester Cup horses, and she ultimately
closed an equal if not a better favourite than the Best Bower ; at all
events, if not quoted at less odds, she had by far the most powerful
party. Several others were backed, but, no changes of any moment
manned. The Derby transactions were of some importance. 1,000
to 200 laid against Sting in the early part of the afternoon was fol-
lowed by several bets, at the same prices, and I I to 4 having been
totted against him in conjunction with Brecardo and lago, it was
inferred by some that the horse or his nomination .must be amiss;
the, layers, however, were constant, and, at the close, 5 to I was ob-
tainable. Brocardo "came again," that is, 15 to 1 was taken several
times, the lay, rs, nevertheless, being willing to go on. 1.000 to 30
was taken, nine or ten times, about Tibtliorpe, and 500 even offered
on hint against Spithead. The betting, in other respects, presented
nothing of peculiar interest. Latest prices :

RA I LWAY COMMITTEES.

(THIS DAY.)

Sub-Committee No. 1.
EXETER, YEOVIL, AND DORCHESTER.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition.)
The next allegation was that no notice had bee n served on Mrs.
Mary Peed, the owner of some property on the proposed line. The
notice was served on Mr. Thomas Peed, who had no interest what-
ever in the property, and Mr. Burke submitted that the standing
orders had not been complied with.
Mr. ELLICOMIR called a witness to prove that, upon calling on the
property, he was informed that it belonged to Mr. Thomas Peed. It
was also found that that person's name appeared on the poor's-rate
book for the years 1844 and 1845, and that being the case, he trusted
the Committee would consider the notice a proper service.
The CHAIRMAN said the Committee were of opinion that the stand-
ing orders had not been complied with ; but that it appeared t
a-rate
o the
Committee the name of Thomas Peed appeared on the
poor'
book as rateable for the property.
fhc next allegation was that the name of a Mr. Pickering was re-
turned as assenting to the construction of the line without his au-
thority.
Mr Pickering was called, and he said that ha had never signed
assent, nor bad he given his authority to ally one else, to 7ign for hint.
Witness was told by his wife that during his abSence from home abut
gentleman had called, and asked her to sign his name to a paper,
she, not being,a good writer, asked her son, who was only ten years
of age, to sign it. llis.wife sail that she did not know what the
paper was about. •
The boy was then called, awl lie said that the gentleman asked
him, in the presence of his mother, to sign his father's name on there
paper, which he did. The gentleman did not
say what
contained, nor did his mother tell him.
Mr. ELLIcomBE called a Mr. nuffet--Witness said that he had
been employed by the local agent, and
was havinto be filg called at Pickering's,
vapor led up with her
he explained to the wife that the
husband's name, and she immediately consented to have it signed
by her son.
The CHAIRMAN—Did you post that letter to the agent In London ?
Witness—I did.
Mr. BUREE submitted that the assent was improperly obtained.
The CHAIRMAN said the Committee were of opinion that the stand-
ing orders had not been complied with, Inasmuch as the name of
William Pickering was signed on a paper without his consent, by
his son, a boy of ten years of age, acting under the instructions of
his mother.
Several other allegations of the same character were sustained, and
the case was gone through.

TATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY.
From the opening of the room to its close, Mermaid was the most
prominently in demand of the Chester Cup horses, and she ultimately
closed an equal if net a better favourite than the Best Bower ; at all
events, if not quoted at less odds, she had by far the most powerful
party. Several others were backed, but no changes of any moment
resulted. The Derby transactions were of some importance. 1,000
to 200 laid against Sting in the early part of the afternoon was fol-
lowed by several bets, at the same prices, and 11 to 4 having been
totted against him In conjunction with Brocardo and lago, it was
inferred by some that the horse or his nomination must be amiss ;
the layers, however, were constant, and, at the close, 5 to I was ob-
tainable. Brocardo "came again," that is, 15 to 1 was taken several
times, the layers, nevertheless, being willing to go on. 1,000 to 30

going on in several favoured situations In ne,
bourhood. Generally, the reaping of barley
universal, if the weather hold good, in a week or ten
days. We were in Strathglass last week, and were
much struck with the fine field of oats and barley in
that beautiful district, many of them ripe for the sickle.
• The pasture, too, on the hill-farms is more luxuriant
than it has been known since 1828. The crops in
general are nearly a month in advance of former years,
and they never presented a richer or better appearance
than they do this season. Fears are entertained for some
fields of potatoes in this neighbourhood. The stems
appear blackened and decayed, as if by the effects
of the mysterious disease ; but we trust these un-
favourable symptoms may be traced to the late thunder-
storm. In Harris and other western islands the disease
undoubtedly prevails.
THE PERTHSHIRE HIGHLANDS.—We are sorry to
say that unequivocal symptoms of the potato disease
having penetrated into our highland districts are at last
too manifest. Within the last few days, the mysterious
blight and blackening of the leaves of the "shave," as
if frosted, can be too generally traced over the whole
country, though be-west of Aberfeldy, with few excep-
tions, the evil may not be so palpable to the hurried
passer-by, as the fields for the most part retain a some-
what greenish, or at most, a brownish or ripened
tinge. We learn that even in this modified state the
root has been found in a state of decomposition, and
utterly uneatable for human food. Shearing will be
commencing in ten days or a fortnight in the more
early districts; and should the crops be got properly
and without scaith harvested, there is a good prospect
of quantity and quality, but the delay of Saturday last
has made sad havoc in the more luxuriant fields is
lodging the same.—Perthskirf Advertiser.

Madrid papers of the 12th have been received.

It was rumoured in Madrid that MARIA CHRISTINA
has expressed herself in favour of a Coburg Prince
as the future husband of the QUEEN. The Court-
martial on the members of the Insurrectional Junta
of Galicia, which has been sitting at Lugo, has pro-
nounced sentence of death upon some of the prisoners,
and condemned others to the galleys. All the Madrid
papers of every shade of opinion, urge the ne-
cessity of showing clemency to these unfortunate
persons.

Mr. SMITIIWICK took the oaths and his seat for the

-THE ROYAL NAVY.
Sir DE LACY EVANS moved that, in reference to
the long retarded measure now at length on the point of
being granted, with a view to the efficiency of the su-
perior ranks of the navy justly due to their great and
eminently valuable national services, and which
must also have the effect of giving ulti-
mate advancement to all the junior ranks,
an humble address be presented to her Majesty,
praying that comparison may at the same time be insti-
tuted into the relative claims of the old war officers of
the army, of various ranks, for such analogous measure
as may with equal reason be expected for their equally
faithful and devoted performance of duty to her Majesty
and the State. He also brought to the notice of the
House the long disappointed claims. of the surviving
veterans of Trafalgar and the Peninsula, to a medal
commemorative of their presence in those conflicts—
.

claims, respecting which their hopes had been strength-
ened and renewed by so many of their junior
comrades having been recently and similarly rewarded
for actions not more arduous nor more glorious.
There was no other profession in the country so heavy
taxed for the benefit of the State as the army. For
instance the system of selling out was established for
the purpose of absolving the Government from pro-
viding retiring pensions, and in his opinion it was
disgrace to the nation, and oughb therefore to be
abolished.—(Hear, hear.) Before an officer of the line
in the infantry could obtain 1,000/. a year, he had to
expend some 10,0001. or 12,0001., and all this money
went to the State.—(Hear, hear.) Now was this fair
or just. Why, while the officer was waiting for the
rank, the 10,0001. or 12,000/. might have ac-
cumulated to 20,0001. or -30,0001, and instead
of being a gainer he was a loser by his advancement.—

NEW COURT.

(Before Mr. Commissioner BULLOCK and Mr. Alderman
HUGHES.

ROBBERY IN A PUBLIC HOUSE.—Michael Hyde, a la-
bourer, stood indicted with having stolen a bank-note, value
51., one sovereign, and two half-sovereigns, the property of
Charles Symons, from his person.
It appeared that the prosecutor had received the moneys
in question from a loan office, and subsequently went into
,the Kentish Drovers public-house, in the Old
Kent .road. He was there joined by' the prisoner
and they had some coffee together. The prosecutor shortly
after fell asleep on the bench in the tap-room, and while in
that state was robbed by the prisoner. On waking, the
prosecutor discovered his loss, and the number of the note
having been ascertained, it was traced to the possession of
a clothier, from whom the prisoner had purchased some
clothes. _ _

The facts having been proved, the jury returned a verdict
of Guilty.

The prisoner was then sentenced to be imprisoned for 12
months, and kept to bard labour.
FELONY.—John Hunt stood indicted with having stolen,
on the 16th of July, six pounds of bacon from the shop of
Mr. John Dawson, Church. street, Camberwell.

George Adams, a lad about twelve years of age, deposed
that he was standing a few yards from the house of Mr. Daw-
son, when he saw the prisoner, who was in company with
another man, commit the offence for which he stood in-
dicted. He then immediately informed Mr. Dawson.
Mr. Dawson deposed to his having lost the property in
question. . _ _

The prisoner said that it was a case of mistaken indentity.
The first witness was then recalled, and having adhered
to his statement,
_

Mr. Commissioner BULLOCK summed up.
The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and he was sentenced
to four months' imprisonment, with hard labour.
There were several other cases of the same character, to
which the prisoners pleaded guilty.
