the back parlours or the tap-rooms of obscure gin-
shops. We see in the proceedings of the city yester-
day the happiest omens for the future; for though
they terminated in one of those discreditable scenes so
frequently brought about by the Radical clique (be-
cause they are the only scenes in which such persons
are qualified to perform a part), yet it will be observed
that this took place after the Hall had been dissolved,
and the respectable part of the livery had left. Another
year's experience, another year's reflection upon the
past and present condition of affairs, will, we are con-
vinced, awaken the vast majority of the merchants and
traders of London to the necessity of taking the
strongest and the most efficient means of preventing
that degradation of their highest offices, and that demo-
ralization of their whole community, which must ne-
cessarily result, if the schemes of the low Radical
junta, to which we have alluded, ever prove successful.
Should that clique ever be permitted to obtain the
mastery, depend upon it that years spent in the
most patient toil, and the most unremitting industry—
wealth as hardly as honestly accumulated—and a whole
life devoted to the practice
.and inculcation of those
virtues which most adorn and most benefit society—
will be laughed at if put forward as qualifications for
civic offices ; and the superior claims of the seditious,
rancorous-mouthed demagogue, destitute of all merit,
bankrupt alike in character and fortune, but
bursting with a patriotic longing after the plunder
which revolution promises, will be rewarded with the
highest honours the city can bestow. And this is
the degradation that awaits the citizens, if they
crush not in its infancy the conspiracy that has been
formed against their prosperity, their property, and
their fame. The demoralization that must ensue from
such a condition of things would be best described by
the artist, who, reversing the moral of Hogarth's his-
tory of the Idle and the Industrious Apprentices, should
raise the former to wealth and station, and end the
career of the latter, not on the gallows, but dangling
at a lamp-post. Let, then, these of the citizens who
would save their country and themselves from visita-
tions so disgraceful and so destructive, betake themselves
at once, and in earnest, to arrest the further progress
of the knaves and fools who urge on Revolution under
the banners of Rcform, as pirates hoist false colours
till they get near enough to ensure the destruction of
the victims they have deceived.—Times.

knowledged that he had made false memoranda, and that
the same had been acknowledged by Mr. Adey opposite, he
could not see how the Court could entertain the evidence
of a witness who acknowledged himself, and was acknow-
ledged, to have been guilty of habitual falsehood.
An argument ensued : but the objection to the witness
was set aside by the Court, because the Rev. Doctor was
present, and acknowledged the service.
The vote was struck off from an informality in the de-
scription.
Edward L. Bulwer, M.P., claimed to vote for the pre-
mises No. 1, George-street, parish of St. George's, White-
chapel. Mr. Bulwer did not appear, nor any one on his
behalf.

He wag struck off the list, on Mr. Adey showing that
another individual had already qualified on the same pre-
mises.

ELECTION OF LORD MAYOR.

(Continued from The Sun of yesterday).
Mr. FEARON should not have come forward on the pre-
sent occasion to, propose the motion which he held in his
hand, did he not feel himself called upon to do so by a feel-
ing of imperative duty. It was impossible that the Lord
Mayor, after the conduct he had pursued towards his fellow-
citizens since he had been in office, could expect anything
like approbation from them. He was fully aware that they
regarded his proceedings with disgust and indignation, and
therefore he had left the Hall in a manner wholly unpre-
cedented, to avoid the expression of anything like public
opinion.—(Hear, hear.) He intended to propose a reso-
lution, to the effect that the Livery assembled in Common
Hall could not depart, nor suffer the opportunity to pass,
without expressing their sense of the uncourtcous and ar-
bitrary conduct of the Lord Mayor, in the exercise of his
office during the period of his Mayoralty, and especially in
his unbecoming conduct towards the Court of Common
Council, and towards respectable deputations of his fellow-
citizens, when waited upon by them to request the use of
the Common Hall for meetings of the Livery, and that
the meeting regarded such conduct on the part of the
Lord Mayor, or Other public functionary, as highly un-
becoming, and calling for the loudest censure of his
fellow-citizens.--( Hear.) To this, indeed, might be added
the unprecedented course the Lord Mayor had pursued on
the present occasion, in leaving his seat and breaking up
the Common Hall ; a strong expression of opinion on this
point would have been embodied in the resolution, had it
not been for the circumstance that the framers of it had not
bad time to remodel it. After stating the nature of the re-
solution he intended to propose, he need not state how
much he condemned the conduct pursued by their chief
magistrate, and above all, after the solemn promises he had
voluntarily made previous to his election to the high office
he now held ; namely, that he would on all occasions be
ready to call meetings of his fellow-citizens, and that his
own political opinions should never interfere with the dis-
charge of Lis official duties ; and yet in every instance he
had departed from the engagement he had made.—(Hear,
hear.) He (Mr. Fearon) was present when the promise
was made to which he had just alluded, and yet the Lord
Mayor seemed to think that he was entitled to go-from his
word at his pleasure.---( Hear, hear.) He solemnly protested
against the conduct of the Lord Mayor, who had acted in a
despotic and arbitrary manner with the rights of his fellow-
citizens, and had done all in his power to establish a civic
despotism. His conduct that day was perfectly unparal-
leled in the history of the proceedings in that Hall.—
(Hear, hear.) Never was an instance known before of a
Lord Mayor, as soon as his successor in office was declared
to be elected, having directed that the Common Hall should
he dissolved, and ordering his officers to take into custody
a gentleman who came forward to speak—this, however,
had been done on the present occasion.—(Loud cries of
" Shame !") He trusted, whether it were so or not, that
no future Lord Mayor would again be allowed to have the
power to insult and degrade the livery and freemen of that
city, or trample on the rights which they had so long pos-
sessed, and which ought not to be injured by any man.—
(Cheers.) He concluded with proposing the resolution.
Mr. Slur., in coming forward to second it, trusted that
on. every occasion when a public officer departed from the
line of duty prescribed to him by the just expression of
public opinion, that they would always be ready to express
their reprobation of such conduct.—(Hear, hear.)
The resolution was carried.
Mr. GREIG proposed a vote of thanks to the Chairman.
The resolution was seconded and carried.
Mr. TAYLOR shortly returned thanks.
The resolutions were then ordered to be advertised in
the Morning and Evening Papers.

print of his hand. The second and decisive attempt must
have been followed by instant death, as the -h7ndpipe,
carotid artery, and both jugular veins were divided in the
centre of the neck. _ _ _

Dr. Jewell, of Sackville-street, Piccadilly, deposed to the
unsound state of mind of the deceased.
Colonel Findley, formerly Governor of Sierra Leone,
stated that Governor Temple, his (witness's) successor, im-
posed more duties upon the deceased as surgeon of the
Mixed Courts than he was able to attend to, in conse-
quence of which he (deceased) resigned the same, which
led Governor Temple to communicate with the Colonial
Office at home, reflecting upon the deceased's conduct,
which reaching the Colonial Secretary, an order went out
for his dismissal. Since his return home he had endea-
voured to get himself reinstated, but ineffectually, and wit-
ness had of late observed that the treatment he had received
from Government preyed upon his mind, and on Monday
he (deceased) talked in a very incoherent manner.
Other witnesses, friends of the deceased, spoke to his
disturbed state of mind.
The Jury observed that the evidence of Colonel Findley
was decisive, and returned a verdict, " That the deceased
cut his throat in an unsound state of mind, brought on in
consequence of the disappointments he received at the
I Colonial Office."
