MR. BAILLIE's ELECTION.

On Monday last a public Meeting of the Inde-
pendent Eleaors of this City, was convened at the
Assembly Room, for the purpose of nominating.a.
Candidate to represent the City in Parliament, in
the place of Lord Sheffield, who has resigned.. We
are enabled to lay the following short account of the
proceedings of this Meeting, before our readers.
The Mayor being present, was called to the
Chair. Mr. Henry Protheroe then came ,forward,
and said, ‘.‘ that the general indignation excited by,
the attempt to impose upon the Eleaors a Gentleman,
unconneaed in any ,way with them, afforded a well.
grounded hope, that it was not yet tno late to op-
pose an effectual resistance to a proceeding so dero-
gatory to the charaler of the City, and so disgrace-
ful to themselves. He trusted, that any secret in.
fluence which might. have been employed to bias and
controul the public opinion, would be immediately
defeated by some Gentleman of character and inde-
pendence being put in nomination, who was Con-
nefted with the City, and who would do justice,
and honour,to its representation. He bore rio.per-
sonal animosity towards Sir F. Eden ; on the con-
trary, he, believed him to be a man of family, of
talents, and of respeaability.: but he objeaed to
the manner in which he had been brought fOrward,
'and the means that had been taken to secure hi's
Eleaion." This speeth being favourably received,
Evan Baillie, Esq. was put in nomination by Mr.
Philip Protheroe, and seconded by Mr. R. Castle.
His name was received with -a burst of applause,
and on- the sense of the Meeting being taken by the
Mayor, not a dissentient hand or voice appeared.
Mr. Waillie having acceTted the nomination, was
accompanied on Tuesday inorning,; from his house
id Park-tow, to the Exchange, by a most numerous
and respectable body of Gentlemen and Citizens. in
the Whig Interest. He there expressed his,grati-
tude_ to the Citizens for the flattering mark of pre,
ference with which .they had honoured him, and
Which, frOm its unanimity, he could not decline;
and that having accepted it, no opposition could in-
duce•himto abandon their cause.

He then proceeded to the Hustings, at the Guild-
hall, where he was nominated by the Mayor, who,
in a very appropriate speech, adverted to the well-
founded claims of Mr. Baillie to the confidence of
his Fellowi-Citizens. The nomination was seconded
by Mr. Protheroe.—The Sheriffs next proceeded to,
a shew of hands, when Mr. Baillie and Mr. Bragge'
Were 'duly eleded, and were greeted by the Meet-
ing with Unbounded applause. Mr. Bragge re-
ceiving from the Gentlemen of every party, those
marks of gratitude and respea, to. which, by the
uniform tenor of his condut in Parliament, he is so
justly entitled.
On the next morning, the Members were chaired
with all, customary honours, and a very numerous
and most respedable body of Mr. Baiilie's friends
assembled at the Bush Tavern to greet their new.
Member, 'and celebrate the, day in joyous convi-
viality. A, most excellent dinner was provided on
the occasion, by Mr. Stretch and amongst the
Gentlemen present, were the Mayor, Mr. Sheriff
Spap,.. Mr. Alderman Bengotigh, Mr. Alderman
