WARWICKSHIRE, JAN. 10.

SOUTHERN DIVISION.
(FROM OUP. CORITIESPONDENT.)
There are at present two candidates in the field for this division
of the county—E. Sheldon, Esq., and Sir John Mordaunt, the for-
mer a deeiled Reformer, and the latter a Tory. It is,however; all
but c,rtain that there will be one or two more gentlemen nomi-
nated on Wednesday, as Sir Gray Skipwith (who had 'de-
clined coming forward on his own responsibility on account of the
expense) declares most positively that if he is put in nomination, he
will go to the poll, and it is believed that he will not want for
friends who will not be back Ward in doing him this favour. Sir
Gray was sent into the last parliament on the liberal interest, but
his conduct disgusted so many of his friends, that a great number
of them haVe•seceded, and are now to be found in the ranks of Mr.
Sheldon. -The only injury he will 'do is that perhaps of dividing
the Reformers, and as he will give-no pledge as to his future con-
duct, it is not improbable that the Tories will split with him. This
he has promised, that he will support the present Ministry, if they
produce any liberal measures, (which he thinks not unlikely) as he
supported the late Ministry. He is a man, however, in, ,;vhom the
Reformers certainly cannot place confidence, as he voted against
inquiry into the Pension List, and will not pledge hi;iriself to sup-
port any measure for its revisal in future. The notx.ination, an ac-
count of which I shall send you, will take place er.'Wednesday.

LEICESTER BOROUGH ELEr,;TION, JAN. 10.

/"RO,ll OUR OWN COR3'4SPONDENT.)
The issue of our election is know, to the public in the defeat of
the two Liberal candidates, but let it not be thought that any re-
action on behalf of Toryism exisois among the people—far from it,
the best spirit prevailed, and ';.ossibly too great confidence in the
righteousness of the good I,l.luse in some degree tended to give a
temporary triumph to out opponents. There are other causes
which led to our discorafiture it is fit should be known. Among
them a very fatal ervir was committed by the Liberal candidates in
placing the management of the election in the hands of a very
limited Committrce composed of men dispossessed of public con-
fidence, ignorr.nt of electioneering tactics, and miserably penurious
in the application of funds at their disposal. However objection-
able and b.ostile to the purity of election is the latter, if we mean to
conquer •we must fight our enemies with their own weapons. The
influen'ee of our notorious Corporation, a most formidable engine of
power, was most unmercifully used against the Liberal party,
evc,-y threat and " flash " promise being made to obtain their vile
ends. The character of this immaculate body I need not now
speak of; it remains written in indelible characters by the ex-
posure of Mr. °TWAY CAVE when our representative. lam re-
joiced to find he will again be in Parliament, and methinks his
apparition already haunts the chambers of its Members. Although
this talented Statesman is not virtually our representative, the
people of. Leicester may take comfort and be persuaded that he will
again be the champion of thde rights, and, " thrice armed,"
c?inbat the hydra-headed monster, who for so many years has
burled defiance to the inhrbitants of this town, and in " grim
visage" mocked them to acorn. Among the phalanx of Corruption
were bands of honorar freemen composed of Aristocratic landlords,
elergy, and farmer's, who were made by the Corporation in 1826
to influence the th.en election, and they, willing slaves, came up to
the poll at the kidding of their drivers. The venality of the out-
voters (freerr.en by birth and servitude) exceeded all belief ; these
Reptile oC infamy must and ought to be (Esfrenchised.

A LIBERAL ELECTOR.

MANCHESTER AND SALFORD.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
have the unspeakable pleasure of giving you the
Anal result of the poll this day for the Borough of Mancheßter :
FINAL CLOSE OF THE POLL.
• Thomson
3,372
Phillips
3,188
Braidky 2,553
Wolesley
604
Braidley, the Tory candidate, formed a coalition yesterday
with the Wolesleyites or Ccbettites, and by this means ob-
tained nearly MOO voters, and to-day spirituous liquors and ale
were had in abundance in the first and second districts, at the
expense of the Tories ; but all would not do—the cause of Re-
form has gloriously triumphed.
Our neighbouring borough, Salford, has likewise gloriously
triumphed, though every means that the Tories could invent
has been resorted to. Drink has been abundantly bestowed
by them, but Reform has triumphed.
FINAL CLOSE OF THE SECOND DAY.
Brotherton
Dugdale

We regret to hear that two of the crew of the
Orates, have been lately murdered at Alicant by some Spa-
niards, Lee, a gunner, from the Excellent, and Sparles, a rope-
maker from Portsmouth. They were both very drunk some
part in the day, when last seen ; and they were both found to-
gether weltering in their blood, at seven the next morning, in
.one of the meat frequented parts of Alicant. Commander
Codrington adds that such is the state of the police and the
laws there, that he can find no clue to discover the murderers.

Jonah Barrington's Memoirs of Ireland and the Union (to be
completed in Six Monthly Parts, at the price of Bs. per Part,
and to contain all the 40 portraits or other illustrations of the
original expensive edition,) is now ready for delivery at the
booksellera in. town and country , and considering the great
importance of the subject, the numerous persons who are deeply
interested in the welfare of Ireland, and tile necessity for oh-
tainin the most authentic information on its actual state, it is
presumed that this cheap republication will prove extremely
acceptable to the public at large and to the various libraries.

HAINIBURG, Nov. 26, 1834
EINE 11R OTHE R S, Contractors for the
GREAT -LOTTERY, published and drawn by authority
ant Ira-der guarantee of the Hamburg Government, beg to inform the
public, that the 65th Lottery of 10,000 Tickets will be drawn on
the ISth of March next ; and Tickets are now selling at 108 marks
hence, or 8/. The prizes are lof 100,000, lof 50,000, lof 30,000,
1 of 20,000, 1 of 10,000, 2 of 5,000, 4 of 3,000, 7 of 2,000, 20 of
1,000, 40 of 500, and 1,500 of 103 marks, which 1,578 money
rizee art altogether stated ;n marks banco, and payable without any
nehet ion whatever ; 4,000 tickets bei eg delivered gratis to tbe holders
of the 2,000 first-drawn tickets, as per scheme, those purchasing
one ticket, at the trifling cost of 81., may obtain three prizes, and
thus, if fortune proves favourable, gain 180,000 marks hence, at
the present exchange, equal to 13,0001. sterling. Owing to the
gratis-tickets, the number of tickets en sale is a very limited one,
so that, of course, they will be cleared off very rapidly, and a
rise in price occur very soon. Those desirous to purahaee at the
present first price of 81., are requested to direct, by one of the
first mails, but only for whole tickets, to the above-named Con-
tractors, Heine Brothers, in Hamburg. Those remitting a 10/.
note will receive an orderc for the balance of 21., together with
the ticket, by return of mail ; on the other hand, those preferring
to pay Heine Brothers' draft for the cost, aro recommended to pay
such draft immediately when presented. A full scheme, and every
desirable information, being always sent with the tickets, those
giving orders will only have to write a line, ordering the ticket or
tickets, adding the money, or an order for the same, or stating the
mode of payment that may be more convenient to the orderer, end
giving their full and plain directions, to secure the safe receipt of
the communications. Those honouring Heine Brothers by pur-
chasing, may depend on the strictest secrecy, as to their taking a
ehat.ce or getting a prize ; such being the undeviating rule of the
old-established and most lucky Office.
