COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT.
(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
COWES, MAY 30.
ISLE OF WIGHT COUNTY ELECTION.

CHAIRING OF THE MEMBER.—The whole of the
Liberal part of the population of the island turned out
yesterday (Thursday), to bear the state of the poll de-
clared, and to chair the Free-trade Representative of the
Royal Isle. Newport was all alive, and carriages, loaded
with happy faces, filled the streets, but there were very
few private ones. The great of the land were not to be
found there to honour the procession ; there were very
sew large landowners, no parsons, and hardly any
officers in either the army or navy ; the taxeaters were
all on the other aide—but still there were carriages,,,
enough to reach from the Town-hall,down Quapstreet,
along Sea-street,.aLd up High-street, to the Hall again,
so that both ends met. Mr. Dawes was 'most rapturously
received. made an excellent speech, as did Mr. Jaques,
Mr. A. Clarke, and other of his friends ; they then pa-
roled throagh all the principal streets of proud New-
port, to the serious annoyance of the Protectionists.
The farmers dared not show--'tis their fate, at present,
either to ho led or driven,-=the Majority peter the
former, and make a merit of necessity ; out there are
still a stubborn few, of the John Bull sort, who, if they
cannot do what they are now convinced is right, set up,
actually jib, and will not go at all.
Tee Protectionists had never calculated on being de-
feated, and the blow has come on them with double se-
verity; they can scarcely believe that they are beaten
now—the impudence, the insolence of people, whom no-
body knew or eared for, setting their opirrionrurrugainst
their betters, has driven them mad; they have sustained
a defeat they can, never recover Ohe people are now
aware of their strength, and at the next registry more
than 100 electors will be added to the last.
AlraAcoLons ESCAPE.—This morning, as a lad (a son
of Neptune) was on the top of a 50-round ladder, paint-
ing the spouts on the roof of Mr. bd. Raisey, the yacht.
builders' house in the High-street, Hatch and Co.'s
luggage-van was carelessly driven between the foot of
the ladder and the houeee kaocking_the ladder_down and
the painter off, from a height of between 40 and 50 feet.
Evorybcdy t tought that the poor fellow would be dashed
' '
to pieces, but, providentially, he fell, on the top, of the
canvas-roof ot the van, breaking two -of the'loops, but
none of his bones, not even injuring himself in the least;
he directly leaped off on to the ground, Jack then
hitehedstp his trousers,-and,- stepping-up -to tile carrier,
exclaimed, " If you come that again, my fine fellow, I'll
crack your head—you have capsized my paint and sprung
the udder."
