SUFFOLK-NOMINATION.

EASTERN DIVISION—IPSWICII, JAN. 10.—The nomination
for this division of the county of Suffolk took place on
Saturday.

Sir CHARLES BLOTS proposed Lord Henniker as a fit and
proper person to represent them in the ensuing Parliament.

Colonel BENCE seconded the nomination. They must now
decide whether they were for Lord Durham and a republic,
or would support the present Government.--(Three cheers
were here given for Lord Durham.) The Gallant Colonel
concluded by seconding the nomination of Lord Henniker.
Lord HENNIKER was received amid loud cheering by the
Anti-Reformers. He had not been a factious opponent to the
late Government. He was anxious to support the Ministry of
Sir Robert Peel. The Noble Lord concluded by thanking
the meeting for their attention.
Sir R. HARLAND, amid great cheering, proposed Robert
Newton Shawe, Esq.
EDWARD GODFREY, Esq., seconded the nomination.

R. N. SHAWE, Esq., then presented himself to the electors,
and was received with tremendous cheering. His whole de-
pendence was upon agriculture. His friends, the Dissenters,
whose support he had, knew perfectly well his opinions. He
would go to the full extent of suppressing all practical griev-
ances, and in removing from them every civil disability.—
(Loud cheers.) He would now say a word or two on the
intimidation which was practised. He was not aware of the
extent to which threats had been held out, and of the extent
to which these threats had been put into execution, until he
started upon his canvas. He regretted to state that these
things were going on at the present moment, and to a very
great extent ; and although he had been in principle and in
practice opposed to the vote by ballot, yet he would assure
the meeting, that before he voted against that question again,
he should give it a most serious and attentive consideration.
—( Cheers.) He did not say that he should vote for it, but
he would give it his most serious consideration ; and if he
voted for it at all, it would be on this principle, that as the
present system is bad, and as a man cannot conscientiously
give his vote without losing his customers, or of being ruined
in his affairs, nothing that could arise from the ballot could be
worse.—( Great cheering.)
Lieutenant-General Sir EDWARD KERRISON then came for-
ward to nominate Colonel Sir Charles Verc, and was seconded
by Sir W. MIDDLETON, Bart.
Sir CHARLES VERE said his principles were well known to
them ; he was a ;firm upholder of the monarchy and of the
constitution in Church and State.—( Cheers, and cries of
" The old story again.") The men now placed at the helm
of Government were more likely to make improvements, and
give such reform as would be founded on the constitution of
the country, and make it purely and virtually Conservative.—
(Loud huzzas.)
Sir THOMAS Goocu then addressed the meeting at great
length, and amidst great interruptions; after which
The Hian SHERIFF put the nominations, severally, to a
show of hands, and declared that, in his opinion, the choice of
the meeting had fallen on R. N. Shawe, Esq., and Sir Charles
Vcre.

Lord HENNIKER immediately demanded a poll.
The Him! SIIERIFF then announced that the polling would
take place on Tuesday and Wednesday next, and dissolved the
meeting.
Three cheers were then given for the High Sheriff, and the
numerous assemblage quietly dispersed.
