ELECTION MOVEMENTS.

LINCOLNSHIRE.
( Abridged from the Lincoln Gazette.)
LINCOLN.—Colonel Sibthorp arrived on Tuesday, and both
he and his friends deserve the merit of being most indefatiga-
ble. We happen to know that the Gallant Colonel was five
times in one day soliciting a poor voter, who lives up-hill, and
four times to another ; in both instances we believe unavailing.
This does not look much like the confidence of success. Mr.
Bulwer and Captain Phipps arrived on Wednesday : the lat-
ter, it appear, from a letter of the former, was
detained at
Brighton, to dine with his Majesty. The nomination of the
candidates will take place, we believe, next Monday, at the
Guildhall, and the election commence on Tuesday.
LlNDSEY.__Singular circumstances have just occurred with
regard to this division of the county. It has been well known
for some time past, that the Tories have been labouring long
and hard to procure a candidate to contest Lindsey with Sir
Willis
Ingilby. Sir Robert Sheffield, it is said, positively
refd again to fight their battleclerical and aristo-
cratical Joint-Stock purses were found to do much more harm
bethan good. Mr. Chaplin, of Blankney, it is understood has
en also very strongly pressed, but he positively refused, and
n Mr. Corbet, of Elsham, was applied to. In the confident
hope of procuring a candidate, we happen to know that the
thumb-screw has been already exhibited.
LiseotxsinitE ( Sorrii).—Wo are happy to inform our
readers that in all
probabilit ,• the return of the two Reformers
who have represented this division will be unresisted. We can
al)eak from personal observation of the great and deserved
d
popularity of Mr. Handley. Mr. Handley is the hope and the
iol of the farmers.
NEWARK.-0a Tuesday last, about nine o'clock, Mr, Fi7-r_
geant Wilde entered the town and proceeded to The Castle
and Falcon, and soon after addressed the as:-n-nbled multitude.
Previous to this Mr. Gladstone had, inued an address, and had
appeared at the Dispensary by.ll one preceding evening, where
!Ahe met his Grace the .1%-,;ite of Newcastle, Earl and Lady
ncoln, and other;,. On Wednesday morning a handbill was
issued from M.Z. 'Sergeant Wilde, declaratory of his principles,
4111(11130r after Mr. Handley retired from the contest. On
rsul.,y morning Mr. Sergeant Wilde and Mr. Gladstone
°°ll,:inenced their canvass.
13usToN.—Before this time the veteran Wilks will have
entered Boston. Illness alone has delayed him. His triumph
is certain. Of Mr. Brownrigg we know little. The Corpo-
ration do not know much. He was not the object of their
Choice but of their necessity. They could get nobody else.
ESTAMFORD.—Poor Stamford ! Stamford gave the tone to
ngland in 1830, yet Stamford is, and must be, the slave of
aristocratic jockey. There may be an opposition at the
forthcoming election (which we doubt), but it will amount to
nothing.
GRANTHAM.—Lord Huntingtower has professed reforming
principles how comes it to pass that he will not alloy; his
tenants to return a Reformer along with bis brothtr ? Why
should such a stupid and obstinate Tory as Glr:,e Earl Welby
be permitted to
sit for this borough,

has not hn . tempt it to forget its duty. Edward Heneage
lions
has
twenty years of Toryism to improve his educa-
youth, health, spirit, and, what is better than all,
Pribciples to aid his parliamentary career.
WARWICK.—The poor degraded Tories of Warwick were
waiting Sergeant Goulburn's arrival at the entrance of the
town, with ropes, &c., for the purpose of making beasts cf them-
selves by drawing his carriage into the town. The learned
gentleman, however, did not come—and they consequently
went back bitterly disappointed, uttering curses boat loud and
deep at the supposed perfidy of their leaders, whom they charged
with having betrayed them, by entering into a tacit agreement
with the party of Bolton King.—Warwick Journal.

WARWICK.—_The poor insipid ex-member for Dover, Hal-
, arrived at 'Warn ick this morning, and will be put in
nomination as a colleague of Sir Charles Greville.— Warwick
Journal.
Bals-.cot.—The day of nomination is fixed for Monday, at
the Guildhall. If there should be a contest the polling will
be 30 Wednesday. The Quarter Sessions are, we understand,
t 0 be adjourned.—Bristol Gazette.
BLACKBURN.—We are happy to announce that the opinion
'of the electors of other towns respecting Dr. Bowring coin-
cides with that of a large majority of the electors and inhabi-
tants of this borough. Yesterday a deputation from Preston
waited upon the Doctor, to request that he would allow him-
self to be put in nomination for that borough. Without hesita-
tion he declined the invitation. In the anticipation of a re-
fusal, the deputation were authorised to request Dr. Bowring
to recommend a candidate of his own principles. We under-
stand he mentioned his friend Colonel Peronnet Tho 7-
as possessing every quality which would entitle /".:im to the
good e

T wneley, Esq., of T --:We regret to learn, that P. E.
This
ebaisndidate for the_
Owneley, has declined to offer himself as
representation of this division of the county.
Ref or however, ought not to discourage the

who have honoured themselves by the efforts they

around them for another gentleman likely to serve the
e.ounty, and we doubt not they will succeed in the accomplish-
ment of their wishes. There is, however, no time to loses
there ore What you do, do quickly!"
LINCOLNSHIRE.—The Tories here have contrived to find a
arnan to be their tool, in opposition to Sir William Ingilby, in
'the person of Mr. Corbett, of Elsham-hall, near Brigg jr-
.Therty a candidate for the City of Lincoln in the Radical in-
terest ! but now as bigotted a Tory as Knatchbull or Ro-
den. It is said that Lord Brownlow, the Lord Lieutenant of
the county, has sent his commands to his vassals to support
Corbett--S'ir William, however, will as assuredly give them a
tneiset, as he before did to Sheffield. He is about to make
another tour amongst his noble and honest supporters, by
whom_,ohe is idolized ; the Liberals are proud of their cham-
pion, n, whom they are determined to support, and through him
.roconquer the unholy combinations of parsons, lawyers, and
