BOROUGH OF LAMBETH.

Yesterday evening a meeting_ of electors of the Borough
of Lambeth, chiefly composed of those favourable to the
return of Mr. Tennyson, took place at the Horns tavern,
Kennington. Mr. PALMER in the Chair. The meeting
was appointed for 6 o'clock precisely, but business did not
commence until nearly 7.
The CHAIRMAN opened the proceedings by stating, that
the present was one of a series of meetings held in that
borough, for the purpose of enabling Mr. Tennyson to
make himself better known to the electors, and of de-
claring the principles upon which he solicited their suf-
frages, and he hoped that the impression made upon their
minds was calculated to produce the utmost satisfaction.
The gentleman who that night stood before them as a can-
lidate, was most anxious to be questioned upon any points
respecting which there might exist the slightest uncer-
tainty respecting any matter at all affecting his character
is a public min. It was well known to all whom be then
addressed, that upon every occasion Mr. Tennyson had
proved himself the friend of the people, and hid always
stood forward to maintain popular rights. If they re-
turned such a man to serve as their representative in Par-
liament, they would do themselves infinite credit by such a
choice, and at the same time confer a lasting benefit upon
the country; they would also show, that in the choice of a
representative, they had been actuated alone be a regard ti
principles. On the present occasion they would learn with
much satisfaction, that the Right Hon. Gentleman who
would now address them had at length become a con-
vert to the expediency of having all votes at elections for
Parliamentary Representatives given by ballot.—(Great
applause.) He had at length become convinced that un-
less the poor man was borne harmless through the con-
flict, they could have nothing like purity of election. It
was a truth but too obvious to all of them, that the middle
classes were falling fast into decay, and that the State must
soon enlarge the work-houses and the gaols, or the peo-
ple must be allowed to enjoy the benefits of an improved
system of government--they must have cheap govern-
ment and cheap justice, and untaxed materials of indus-
try, and untaxed knowledge. They had been told that
one of their candidates would remove their turnpike-gates
to the boundaries of the parish—that might be all very
good, but Mr. Tennyson would apply himself to the
great work of obtaining for them relief from the great
tells of the State. Before he sat down there was one
circumeance t 9 which he wished to call their particular
attention. It had gone forth to the public that a coali-
tiun between Lord Palmerston and the Right Honoura-
ble Gentleman then in the room had been agreed to. On
the part of Mr. Tennyson's friends, he (the Chairman)
had thought it right to call on Mr. Hawes, and altogether
to disavow any such intention.
Mr. WARBURTON moved the first resolution, which
went to express the great satisfaction which the meeting
felt at the recent declaration of Mr. Tennyson, contained
in the placard posted throughout the Borough, in which
he had disclaimed any intention of coalescing with Lord
Palmerston or any other candidate.
Sir WILLIAM INGILBE next addressed the meeting in
support of the resolation, pronouncing a warm eulogium
upon the character and conduct of Mr. Tennyson, strongly
impressing upon the meeting the urgent need in which
the country stood of the protection which the mode of
voting by ballot could alone supply. He rejoiced to think
that some of his Majesty's Ministers had at length begun
to see a little day-light ; but, unlike them, lie (Sir Wm.
Ingilby) did not fnd it necessary to be driven into a hole

for the purpose of becoming favourable to the vote by
ballot—he had not remained ao anti-ballotter for more than
a week; for he had scarcely taken even that short time to
reflect upon the subject, when he came to the conclusion
that the protection of the ballot was vitally essential to the
free exercise of those rights which the Reform Bill had

just conferred. The people could never be free from the
Aristocracy and the parsons, unless they were secured in
the exercise of their franchise by the ballot.—( Hear.)
Mr. TENNYSON then got up amidst great applause
to address the meeting. He had been invited to stand
for the borough upon public grounds, and he had not pro-
ceeded to a personal canvass both from the state of his
health, arising from long-continued Parliamentary
labours, as from the fact that he understood such
canvass was neither expected nor would be generally
acceptable ; but be trusted that his not proceeding to
canvass would not be imputed to any want of respect to-
wards the electors of Lambeth. Nothing could be more
remote from his feelings than to treat with even an ap-
proach to disrespect a body of electors who had received
him so cordially, and nothing could afford him greater
satisfaction and joy than the honour of being returned to
serve in Parliament for such a borough as Lambeth. In
addition to the printed declaration which he had put forth
upon the subject, he begged then once again to declare,
that nothing could have been further from his mind, than

to enter into any coalition with his Noble Friend, Lord
Palmerston—he called him his Noble Friend, for both
in public and in private be regarded him in that
light. He assured them that the idea ofd coalition never
once entered his mind—be looked upon coalitions under
such circumstances as most unwarrantable—as one of the
grossest frauds that could he practised upon any place
possessing the right of returning Members to serve in
Parliament. It just amounted to this, that when two
Members did not find themselves strong enough to stand
upon their separate claims, they clubbed their imbecility
for the purpose of forcing upon the borough or county
some candidate whose services the borough or county did
not require. Oa the subject of the ballot, he begged to
call their attention to some circumstances connected with
'iris declarations on that subject. When he was fast in-
terrogated relative to the ballot, he gave a direct and
honest answer, dictated by the condition of his sentiments
at that time. He stated that if the Bill did not operate
according to the wishes of its promoters, and that in con-
sequence of that the electors did not enjoy the full and free
exercise of the privilages which that measure imparted
to them, that he for one should give his most cordial sup-
port to a measure introducing the vote by ballot. lie was,
he confessed, at that time most anxious that the Bill
should have a fair trial, at the same time be declared he did
not see how they could avoid voting by ballot ; but between
that period and the present hour, he had seen abundant rea-
son to satisfy his mind that the protection, which the ballot
alone could afford, ought no longer to be withheld. He need
not seek for any instance beyond that which had been af-
forded to him in the county of Lincoln. Ile had lately
accompanied his friend, Sir W. lugilby, on a part of his
canvass of the northern division of that county, and though

there could be no doubt of the return of his lion. Friend,
yet such instances of intimidation on the part of landlords
bad come under his observation as left no doubt on his mind

that the ballot would no longer, with any safety, be with-
held. He begged his friends to bear in mind that he did
nut mike these observation,' from any fear that exception
would be taken to hint in the borough of Lambeth on the
ground that he was not a supporter of the ballot—on the
contrary, he had never heard the slightest objection against
him urged upon that ground, and he now came forward to
make the declaration which be had done, not in conse-
quence of anything which had arisen amongst the electors
of that borough, but in consequence of the solemn convic-

tions of his -own mind.—(Applause.) He now stood
before them to be interrogated once again in such manner
as they might think proper. The country had by the
Reform Bill been redeemed from a position into which he
trusted it would never again fall—and thus its liberties had
been placed upon that which he Loped would prave an
everlasting foundation. He would ask them in what state
had the Reform Thu found the Law—the Church—the
Taxes—the Monetary System—the Public Debt ? Just
in the state that might have been expected from the then
existing state of the representation ; but now, after the
Reform Bill, it would be the fault of the people themselves
if they permitted things to remain as they were. He had
once sat for a rotten borough, belonging then to that class
who had so long been the masters of the people, and he,
if he had been so inclined, might too hive aimed at being
one of them; he should now, however, be happy iu oc-
cupying the place of one of the servants of the people—a
service, in which he should most cheerfully and zealously
apply himself to the task of restoring the Constitution to
its original purity.
Mr. CHURCHILL desired to know from the Right Hon.
Candidate his sentiments on the subject of Church Re-

form—whether Church property was not public property,
and whether it might not he applied to the relief of the
national burdens ? He also referred to the observations
made in Parliament by Mr. Tennyson on the subject of a
new creation of Peers, and desired to know if the Right
Hon. Gentian in had any explanation to give of the
speech he had then made. There was another subject upon
which be desired to have some explicit statement from the
Candidate: be alluded to the taxes upon knowledge—it
was a grievance in redress of which they bad just as lit-
tle to hope frosts the present Government as from any Go-
vernment that ever existed. They were as great enerni:s
to the diffusion of khowledge as Castlereagh or Sidmouth.
For his part he did not hesitate to say, that no indepen-
dent community should support a Candidate who did not
pledge himself to the repeal of all taxes that impeded the

and it would be very easy to find means of making such
retrenchments as would countervail that reduction of the

revenue ; or at all events, by means of a sound and ex-
t,usive Church Reform, find the means of making good
the deficiency. For his part, be was an advocate for uni-
versal suffrage and annual Parliaments; at the same

'me. he was glad to accept the vote by ballot at
one instalment of the &tat due t the people of England.
ft svas a disgrace to the hotough of Lambeth that
they could find no better man to represent them than such
c one as Lord Palmerston, the man who had supported
Castlereagh and the Manchester Magistrates, the frequent
suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act, and every other
measure which a Tory Ministry could propose.—(Cheers.)
Mr. Lucattics wished to know from Mr. Tennyson
what he intended to do with that abomination of all abo-
oinations—the Church of England ? He wished to know
Irons the Right Hon. Candidate then in the room, whether
,r not he would support a measure for abolishing all pro-
lerty qualification as well in the elector as in the elected ?

,le complained of Air. Tennyson's not having supported
'he motion of Mr. Ruthven, for relieving the tenants of
wo acres in Ireland from the burden of tithes—would he
•upport Mr. O'Connell in his measures for the improve-
nent of Ireland ; would he agree to the abolition of the
sw of primogeniture?
Mr. ARNOTT (as we understood) appearing on behalf of
he friends of Lord Palmerston, assured the meeting that
'oalition was as fir from the mind of the Noble Lord as

t could possibly, be from that of the Right lion Gi•ntletnan.
Mr. TENNYSON again stood forward to address the
neeting, observing that to most of the questions which
iad that evening been put to him, he had given ans vets
in former occasions. He was a friend to Church Reform ;
to considered the property of the Church, as lie did all
lie institutions of the country, the property of the State,
risting only for the good of the people; and especielly
lid he think that church property was the property of ti e
Mille. He was a member of the Church of England,
rut be had not the slightest difficulty in s tying, that if
that church no longer administered to the wants and
vishes of the people, it ought no longer to exist. But he
ieliev, d that it could be so amended as to administer to
hose wants and wishes ; and, therefore, no man desk, d
nore earnestly than he did to see the abuses of the church
• .eformed, and no man would more strenuously ex, rt hint.
elf than he should to promote that species of Reform ; but
fby Reform were meant a total confiscation of church
property, for the purpose of applying such property to the
iurposes of the State, all he could say was, that if, upon
nvestigation, it should appear that the property of Vie
ttrurch was more than enough to defray the expenses of tl.e
hurch, and adequately to remunerate the working clergy,
end that after that there remained a surplus, then lie
hould have no objection to apply that surplus to the
purposes of the State. He was a member of tire church
,f England, and friendly to its institutions ;
'le hail never professed himself otherwise—he hail never
rei n a Dissenter—he had never gone fur tiler than to de-
;tare that he wished to see its gross abuses reformed. 'I he
text topic to which he applied himself was, the notice
taken sf the observations which fell from him in the House
if Commons repecting the creation of Peers, lie con-
eased he thought the country had enough of Pe rs, and
hat we had every reason to be grateful to the King fur
nanaging to have the Reform Bill carried without thet
creation. Respecting the taxes on knowledge, lie wes
,ery sensible of the value of a Free Press, but he thought
it might be hard to tie up the hands of Alinisters tto
closely—it would not, perhaps, be indulging them too far
if they were allowed to take off lea the tax in the first
instance, and the other half as circumstances allowed. As to
Jim qualification of electors, he had ever been au ailyoca.e
or the scot and lot suffrage ; and in proof , f his sentiments
referred to the motion be had made reNsectingl3irtninghain,
in the proposed disfranchisement of East Retford ; hut lie
lid nut think that the property qualification of Members
iught to be abolished. He was in favour of a graduated pro-
nisty tax ; and with respect to the question put to him, whe-
ther or not lie would withdraw in the event of differing from
iris constimente, he had only to say, that he hoped the
lectors of Lambeth would not seek to introduce a new
lemeat into the Constitution of such a nature as that ;
hut for himself individually, Le had only to observe, that
should he have the misfortune to differ from the great hotly
of his constituents, and to have that difference uticqiiiye-
(tally established, he trusted he should act as the delicacy
if such a situation required ; of this he fe:t perfectly as-
stated, that, under no circumstances, would lie forfeit the
confidence of any body of electors ; it was impossible
that lie should ; but he protested against making ie.), fur-
ther declarations upon the subject.—(Applause.)
The resolution was then put and agreed to.
- _

Mr. B. WOOD moved a resolution pledging the electois
then present to give Mr. Tennyson their warmest support.
Mr. BARROW seconded the resolution. He begged
tiost heartily to congratulate Mr. Tennyson and his friends
upon the successful canvass of the District Committees.
When called upon to engage in that work, they ceruainle
.ould not have anticipated so noble, so triumphant a re-
ult as that which had awaited their labours...-.Resolution
agreed to.

Mr. D. RICHARDSON moved that a subscription be en-
, red into to defray the expenses of the election ; which
was seconded by Mr. WARBURTON, and agreed to.
Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the meet-
ing broke up.

The occupiers of houses required for the
opening of the new street from the Strand to Long-acre
have received notice to quit—some at Michaelmas, and the
•emainder at Christmas—preparatory to the commerce-
:tient of the preparations for the completion of the plan,
and the erection of the new English Opera flouw.

Are principal agents of Dan PEDRO iu this country has
'teen fortunate enough to secure the services of the whole
Foreign Belgic LegiGn, which will be forthwith convcyrd
to Oporto in steatn.vessels from Ostend. The agent,
having obtained information that the Belgic Government
could dispense with the services of that body of troops,
immedistely set off for Brussels, and succeeded in engaging
rhem for the cause of Don PEDRO previous to their dis..
;torsion. This reinforcement, together with those which
hjve already been sent, and are about to follow, are likely
bring the struggle in Portugal to a termination. The
Britomart also, which had on board :3G pieties of heavy
rdnatice, must have reached Oporto at a most seasonable
'iine—that is, by tie 18th or 20th instant ; while the
other vessels, which carried horses and men, would arrive
Portly after.—Morning Paper.

army in the partial struggles to get an ontpii,t, or some

-on to believe from the well-established fuct of the de,er-
tion of the militia, who form a great proportion of their

LONDON MARKETS.
(From the London New Price Current of yesterday.)
SUGAR—The Sugar Market last week had a very dull
and heavy appearance; the purchases little exceeded
2,500 hhds. and trs.: the prices were about Is. lower.
The stock of West India Sugar is now 44.528 hhds. and
trs,, which is 10,739 less than last year. The stock of
Mauritius is 49,461 being 75,390 less than last year. The
delivery of West India Sugar is 3,354 Mids. and trs., being
176 less than last year. The delivery of Mauritius 2,927
bags, being 3,837 less than the corresponding week of 1831.
The Sugar Market has been very dull all day, and the pur-
chases quite inconsiderable, but no further reduction in
prices can be Stated. At the close of the day, the estimated
sales were 800 hhds., including the Barbadoes sale, which
went rather lower. In the Refined Market there was
great heaviness last week ; the prices were generally 6d,
to IR. per cwt. lower, and little business doing at the re-
duction. The R.fined Market this afternoon remains still
in a very languid state.
