WARWICK ELECTION COMMITTEE.-
(THIS DAY.)

The Committee sat this morning at eleven o'clock, when
Mr. HARRISON said, as he had proved sufficient on the part
of the petitioners to unseat Sir Chas. Greville, and as he under-
stood that his learned friend Mr. Sergeant Merewether did not
intend to defend the legality of the election by calling evidence,
lie (Mr. Harrison) thought it would be only an act of duty to-
wards his clients, and towards the Committee, not to put his
clients to any further expense, or the Committee to any fur-
ther delay by calling any more witnesses, especially as, if he
were tp proceed further, there was no telling where or when
the case might terminate.
The CHAIRMAN said, of course the petitioners bad the option
of proceeding ; there were three allegations in the petition,
one of which was to invalidate Sir C. Greville's election, the
second that there had been gross bribery in the borough of
Warwick, and the third charging improper interference and
bribery to the Earl of Warwick. The petitioners had proved
the first allegation, and if they did not choose to proceed any
further, the Committee would have to report upon the evidence
already before them.

The room was then cleared, and the Committee remained a
long time in consultation. On strangers being readmitted the
chairman delivered the following as the determination to
which the Committee had come.

" That Sir Charles Greville is not duly elected a Burgess to
serve in the presoot Parliament for the borough of Warwick,
and that the recent election for that borough is void, as far as
relates to the said Sir Charles Greville.
" That the petition of William Collins and another is not
frivolous or vexatious; that the petition of George Grunaway
and another is not frivolous or vexatious.
" The Committee have come to the following resolution :
That gross bribery prevailed at the last election on the part of
the agents of Sir Charles Greville, and that, although Sir
Charles Greville does not appear to the Committee personally
to have taken any part in that bribery, his return is mainly
attributable to it.'

“ That of the other allegations in the petitions, the Counsel
for the petitioners declined to produce any evidence.
That the petition of Grunaway and another against the re-
turn of Edward Bolton King, Esq., was withdrawn from the
consideration of the Committee.”
