SALFORD, DEC. 12.

The nomination took place to-day. The borough is the
Southwark of Manchester, contains 50,000 inhabitants,
1,100 electors, and returns one Member. The candidates
are Mr. Brotherton, who was instrumental in procuring a
representative for Salford independent of Manchester, and
Mr. Garnet•, who professes liberal principles now, but
who has hitherto been a Tory.
RICHARD POTTER, E'q., nominated Mr. BRO'rHERTON
amidst loud cheers.

JOHN B. SMITH, Esq., seconded the nomination.
EDWARD BRANDT, Esq. (a barrister, resident in Man-
chester), proposed Mr. GARNETT.
ROBERT GARDNER, Esq., seconded the nomination.

Mr. BROTHERTON then addressed the electors at consi-
derable length. He said he had been vilified as a Repub-
lican, but he had always been attached to the form of
government of Kings, Lords, and Commons. He avowed
himself as anxiously desirous entirely to abolish the corn
laws and to open the trade to India and China. He was
an advocate for the ballot for the protectio❑ of the voter
from all undue influences. He considered the revenues
of Church as public property, to be disposed of as the
public, through their representatives, thought fit. He
concluded by declaring himself an advocate fur the im-
mediate and unconditional emancipation of the slaves in
our colonies.
Mr. GARNETT followed. He also declared himself in
favour of free trade in corn, and free intercourse with
India and China, but he would no go so far as Mr. Bro-
therton with regard to Church property, regarding it as
having been devoted exclusively to the Church.
The BOROUGIIREEVE at the conclusion of Mr. Gar-
nett's address called for a show of hands, which being ten
to one in favour of Mr. Brotherton, he was declared to be
elected, on which Mr. Garnett called for a poll. The
polling will commence to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock.

THURSDAY, HALF-PAST 12.

The polling commenced this morning at the same time
as in Manchester. Mr. Brotherton, the Reform candi-
date, was considerably at the head of the poll when our
account left. We have just received the state of the poll :
Brotherton .......................................270
Garnett.......................................... 105

CARLISLE, DEC. 12.
TRIUMPH OF RADICAL REFORNI.

Monday last was the day fixed upon for the election of
two Members for Carlisle. The old Members, Mr. Jam, s,
of Barrock Lodge, and Mr. P. H. Howard (the son of
our highly-respected High Sheriff), were the only candi-
dates up to the day of nomination, and every one seemed
satisfied that they would be returned without opposition.
In conformity, however, with their usual tactics, the
Torieq, it would seem, had ben secretly beating about for
a candidate of their own complexion; and this they met
with very opportunely, as they must have fancied, in the
person of no less a man than Sir John Malcolm. Too
late for a chance in the Dumfries district of boroughs, the
Gallant Baronet was readily at the service of our little dirty
Corporation of corruptionists, and in the event, as it Ir, s
proved, of their not being able to furnish him with a " job
of work," he is as ready for the service of any other
similar fraternity. H He was put in nomination here by
the Town-clerk, and this was seconded by the youngest,
but most hopeful, of our Aldermen. The polling was
deferred until to-day, and this morning, at 8 o'clock, it

commenced on the part of the Reformers with promp-
titude and spirit. The contest was maintained unequally
until nearly 3, p.m., when the poll books were closed, on
the resignation of Sir John Malcolm. The Mayor an-
nounced William James, Esq., and P. H. Howard, Esq.,
as duly elected, the numbers being for

Mr. James 478
Mr. Howard.. 472
Sir J. Malcolm 124

Thus, in order to gather for us the produce of that
Reform Bill, which we were so strenuous in contending
for, and so eager to obtain, we have deputed the satne in-
dividuals who procured this advantage for us in the last
Parliament ; and if we have not been fortunate to the
very utmost of our wishes, we might have been worse off.
We have one firm, high principled, and uncompromising
Reformer. Our other representative is but a moderate
man—a man of crude and undigested principles, but
willing, it is believed, to do his duty, if he can only find
out what that is.
