HARWICH ELECTION.
The nomination of a candidate for the vacancy in the
representation of this borough, occasioned by the ejec-
tion of Mr. Attwood, took place yesterday.
The MAYOR (Mr. John Pattrick) opened the proceed-
inges at the unusually early hour of nine o'clock, as ap-
v.anted. He addressed the electors, and hoped they
would on this occasion purge themselves of the stigma
that had been cast upon them. On themselves depended
1 whether this was or not the last time they would be
called upon to exercise the rights of the franchise.
The Hon. Mr. Sutton and Sir J. Cain Hobhouse
having been duly nominated,
The Hon. Mr. SUTTON came forward, amid loud
cheers. He denied, fairly, openly, and straight for-
wardly, that he appeared there as a nominee or delegate.
He did not mean to say anything disrespectful of Mr.
Attwood, but he would not consent to be his, or any
other man's nominee, to gain one or twenty seats.—
(Hear, bear.) He appeared there on Conservative prin-
ciples, and those who thought well of them would
support him.—(Hear, hear.) He rejoiced to bear
that bribery and corruption were protested against; ho
pledged himself to be no party to either, directly or
indirectly.—(Hear, hear.) Relying on the promises he
had received during a personal canvas, he felt confident
of the result, and that he would to-morrow be placed at
the head of the poll.—(Cheers.)
Mr. BULL addressed the meeting on behalf of Sir John
Cam Hobhouse, and said he had no doubt, he having
been one of the deputation that waited on the Right
Hon. Baronet, that in the course of a few months all
would feel obliged to him for his share in introducing
him to the electors of Harwich.—(He was much inter-
rupted by constant cries of " Where is he?" &c.)
On a show of hands. the MAYOR declared Sir John
C. Hobhouse had a majority, and a poll was demanded
by Captain Deane on behalf of Mr. Sutton, and fixed
for to-morrow (tbia day).
