ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

MARYLEBONE.

Last evening, the vestry-hall of St. Pancras, cap-
able of holding at least 2,000 persons, was densely
crowded, in consequence of invitations having been
given to the three candidates at present before the
borough to attend at the same time and afford the
electors an opportunity of judging of their respec-
tive merits. Mr. Churchwarden Furniss was in the
chair.

Lord Fermoy and Major Lyon appeared, and •
were loudly cheered by their respective friends. On •
the chairman calling for Col. Dickson he was not
present, and ho therefore announced Major Lyon
to address the assembly. The gallant major had
just commenced when Col. Dickson, accompanied
3y Mr. T. S. Duncombe, M.P., arrived, and was
received with loud cheering and uproar.
Col. DICKSON, amidst tremendous cheering and
uproar, addressed the assembly. He denied the
assertion of the noble lord that he was not asso-
ciated with the borough. He had lived in the
borough in his boyhood, and as a magistrate had
resided in Paddington for the last 10 years. He
again denied that he ever was a To ; such a state-
ment was a calumny upon him. Ifry they returned
him, which he believed they would do, they would
find him as good a Liberal as any in the House of
Commons. (Cheers, oh, oh, and confusion.) They
might depend upon it, if he were elected, the poor
as well as the rich would find him ever ready to
attend to their interests. (Cheers and uproar.)
The gallant colonel declared his intention to go to
the poll, and poll to the last man, amidst tremen-
dous cheering and confusion.
Major LYON next presented himself, but was un-
able to obtain a hearing, although Lord Fermoy,
who was decidedly the popular candidate, several
times endeavoured to procure one for him. The
gallant major, after declaring himself a thorough-
going Liberal, was compelled to give up his task as
hopeless, and- ultimately retired.
Lord FERMOY then, amidst loud applause and in
terruption, presented himself. He did not come
before the borough of Marylebone as the protege of
any small clique or any faction. (Cheers.) How-
ever desirous they might be to see converts to their
own opinions coming amongst them, he thought it
was not likely that they would set aside old and
tried reformers for those who had recently changed
their opinions. He must say he was astonished
to see his old friend, Tom Duncombe, in the com-
pany he was in at that moment. (Cheers and laugh-
ter.) He (Lord Fermoy) had no objection to the
greatest scrutiny into his public character and con-
duct. (Hear, hear.) He would defy any one to
point his finger to any vote that Edmund Burke
Roach ever gave in Parliament adverse to the liber-
ties of the people. (Cheers.) lie had stuck by the

principles of Reform when they were unfashionable
—aye, he had voted for those principles side by
side when Tom Duncombe was the friend of liberty
and progress, and ho did not expect at this age to
find his hon. friend and colleague of former days on
that occasion opposed to him. (Cheers, and " No,
no.") He would, in order that they might know
his political character, tell them some of the votes
he had given during his 18 years' career in Parlia-
ment. His lordship then mentioned the various
votes he had given during that period in favour
of liberal measures. He had told them of the
past, and he would now say something of
the future. (Cheers.) With regard to reform in
Parliament he would go to the fullest extent of
the suffrage. He had always voted for house-
hold suffrage, but he was prepared to march with
the intelligence of the age, and vote for giving the
suffrage to those men who had been mainly instru-
mental in building up the honcair of England—the
lodger class. He was prepared to give the franchise
to lodgers upon a rating franchise. (Cheers.) He
had always voted with the late Mr. Hume for all
measures of reform and liberty of conscience. He
was, therefore, an opponent of church rates.
(Cheers.) There were no church rates in Ireland.
(A cry of " Maynooth.") With respect to the grant
to Maynooth, that was a compact entered into by
Sir Robert Peel as an endowment to the Church of
Ireland. If they took that grant away, then he
thought they ought to take away all similar grants.
To use a very homely adage,'" That which was
sauce for the goose was sauce for the gander."
(Laughter and cheers, and a cry of " No Popery.")
Some one had cried "No Popery." He (Lord Fer-
moy) begged to tell the gentleman who cried out
" No Popery" that he (the noble lord) was as good
a Protestant as he—(loud cheers)—but he believed
a more rational one—(cheers)—for he did not wish
any other man to pay for-tikbapport of his Church.
(Renewed applause.)
The CHAIRMAN then put the names of the candi-
dates to a show of hands. For Colonel Dickson some
50 or 100 hands were raised, for Major Lyon
scarcely any, but for Lord Fermoy at least three-
fourths of the meeting held up their hands amidst
tremendous cheering.
The CHAIRMAN said he had no hesitation in de-
claring that the show of hands was in favour of
Lord Fermoy by a very overwhelming majority.
(Loud and repeated cheers.)
Lord FERMOY thanked the meeting for their en-
thusiasm in his favour, and moved a vote of thanks
to the chairman, which was carried with loud
acclamations.

Three cheers were then given for Lord Fermoy,
and the proceedings terminated.

ASHTON-UNDER-LYNE.

Yesterday Mr. Milner Gibson was re-elected
without opposition. He was nominated by Alder-
man Buckley, and seconded by Alderman Rayner.
Mr. GIBSON, who, on rising, was loudly cheered,
said he begged to thank them most cordially for
the great honour which they had just conferred
upon him by again returning him to Parliament as
their representative. They may be sure that he
was sincere when he told them that he fully appre-
ciated their kindness, and that he desired no greater
reward than to be sent to Parliament by a great,
free, and independent constituency like that of
Ashton. (Cheers.) He had been spoken of in high
terms of praise by the mayor, and undeserving
although he was of that praise, he could say that
he should endeavour most earnestly to have the
approval of his constituents in everything that he
did, and whether he was in or out of the Govern-
ment, he should always endeavour to promote and
give effect to those political principles which first
recommended him to their notice. (Cheers,) Mr.
Rayner had given him, in seconding his (Mr. Gib •
Sony's) nomination, a well-timed hint, that when he
entered through the door of the Cabinet he must
take care that be did not leave his principles out-
side. (Cheers and laughter.) Well, he would there-
fore inform them that he did not intend to do so;
he intended to make those principles prevail as far
as he could—(cheers)—and to do whatever in him
lay to make those principles find their way into the
Legislature. (Applause.) With regard to his views
of peace and war, he had expressed himself on Sa-
turday, and he might again say that he believed it
was the earnest desire of the new Cabinet that this
country should in the present war remain neutral.
(Cheers.) He believed that the foreign policy of
Lord J. Russell would be one of moderation and
justice—(cheers)—and that it would be no fault of
his if England took part in the present or any other
war. (Loud cheers.) He would not only maintain
friendly relations with France, but every other
nation in the world. (Cheers.) In representing
the borough of Ashton in Parliament, he felt he
Was connected with the great manufacturing in-
terests of this country; and although he was not
one of those who would draw invidious dis-
tinctions between one branch of industry and
another—for he believed the interests of all
were identical—yet he must say that he was im-
pressed with the belief that the prosperity of the
manufacturing interest above all others was vital
to the greatness and welfare of this country.
(Cheers.) And he, therefore, thought that every
Ministry would do well to consider what would be
best for the prosperity of the manufacturing com-
munity. Well, it would be his endeavour to act in
this spirit and to serve the best interests of the
whole nation. (Cheers.) They should find him in
his public conduct frank and straightforward. He
would not mislead them as to the course he might
take in Parliament; and he felt confident that Par-
liaments would never last so long as to preclude
them from dismissing him at almost any time they
might think proper. If he committed any errors
they would be errors of judgment, and as such they
would be looked upon by his constituents. (Cheers.)
He had been told that he ought not to have joined
this Government. (Laughter.) Well, now, he
must tell them frankly that hearing so often as he
had done that the Liberal party were unable to
carry on any Government, he had grown sick of
hearing the charge. They had been taunted about
their divisions, and then, when they united toge-
ther, they were told the collection was a factious
one. (Laughter.) He denied that it was a fac-
tious collection. It was one formed on broad and
fundamental principles—(cheers)—and their desire
was to co-operate together for the good of the na-
tion. He believed the present Government would
be successful, and hoped that it might have a fair
trial. When it had been allowed to get on its legs,
then he asked neither favour nor partiality from
any one, but that it should stand or fall upon its
policy. They should, no doubt, be expected to deal
with the question of Parliamentary Reform—(hear,
hear)—and he did not doubt but it would be dealt
with in a right spirit. He did not say that all that
should be done in the way of Reform would be done.
But concessions must be made on all sides, provi-
ded these concessions were not of principle. (Hear,
hear.) He was always ready to take a portion of
a good thing, without at all committing himself
not to again ask for the rest. (Hear.) He believed
that whatever was done in the way of reform would
be sound in principle, and would have no tendency
to make the representation more exclusive than it
now was ; but, on the contrary, will have a decided
tendency to give greater political power to the
body of the people, and popularise the institutions
and Government of the country. That will be its
honest tendency, and he trusted that whatever sort
of bill might be fixed upon, it would be suited to
the times in which we live, and be settled to the
satisfaction of all men in the country. There was
one thing that the Liberal party would not consent
to—it would not consent that the bill should be a
change for the worse and not for the better, as was
the case with the bill of the Derby Government.
(Cheers.) His political principles, he assured them,
were the same as when he first came to Ashton, and
his desire was to give effect to them in the Govern-
ment as well as out of it. (Loud cheers.)
A vote of thanks to the Mayor terminated the
proceedings.

OXFORD UNIVERSITY.
The election of a burgess to represent this uni-
versity took place yesterday morning in the Shel-
donian Theatre, at 10 o'clock, when there was a
large attendance of senior as well as junior mem-
bers of the university. In addition to the Vice-
Chancellor and Proctors, there were present the
Master of Balliol College, the Dean of Christ Church,
the Rector of Exeter, the Provost of Oriel, the
Warden of Wadham, the Principal of Brasenose
College, the President of St. John's," the Warden of
New College, the Warden of All Souls' College, the
Principal of Alban Hall, the Principal of Magda-
len Hall, the Warden of Merton College, Rev. Dr.
Bandwell, Rev. Dr. Bloxham, Rev. Canon Stanley,
Rev. Canon Agilvie, Dr. Acland, Dr. Tristram,
Rev. Dr. Miller, &c., &c.
The usual preliminaries having been gone through,
the Dean of Christ Church addressed the Convoca-
tion in Latin to the following effect—Members of
the University of Oxford, I stand before you to offer
to your suffrages the Right Hon. William Ewart
Gladstone, D.C.L., of Christ Church, as your repre-
sentative in Parliament. (Cheers.) Therm no need
that I should be copious in eulogising him to you,
although I could do so with ease, for who among you

does not know bow convincing his argument, how
great his experience as a statesman, how universal
his information, how pure his life, how deep his reli-
gious feeling ? (Cheers.) In a word, who can so
worthily as he represent our university in the legis-
lative assembly of the country ? But I would fur-
ther remind you that it is not any ordinary man
who can sustain this dignity, not any one taken at
random who is fit to be honoured with your votes,
but one whose talents, eloquence, weight, and learn-
ing, all may not only see, but respect ; one, in short
with regard to whom, if elected, there shall be but
one opinion, that the university worthily enjoys and
most worthily exercises her right of election.
(Cheers.) For him, therefore, so often returned by
you I again solicit your votes, and in my opinion no
adequate cause either has been or can be alleged for
now breaking through the standing custom of the
university—" Once elected, always elected." (Much
cheering.)
The President of ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE (the Rev.
Dr. Wynter) rose and also spoke in Latin :—Mr.
Vice-Chancellor and Proctors, it falls to my lot to
nominate the Right Hen. Lord Richard Plantagenet
Grenville, commonly called the Marquis of Chandos,
for election to the office of burgess of the University
of Oxford. I recommend him the more especially
to your notice as one who, ever consistent, shrinks
from hasty innovations, and who will be found no
less ready to preserve the ancient laws and institu-
tions of the State than to change them for the bet--
ter when such change is with reason called for.
This nobleman, therefore, who has encountered dif-
ficulties with courage—who has applied himself
with zeal and ability to the unravelling of those
difficulties—who, in my opinion, has by this means
earned the highest honour rather than any particle
of blame—well known no less for his firmness of
purpose and his experience in business than for his
excellence "of disposition, I heartily commend to
your support. (Much cheering.)
No other candidate being nominated, the Vice-
Chancellor announced that the polling would com-
mence immediately in the Convocation-house.
Three cheers were given for Mr. Gladstone by
the under-graduates at the close of the proceedings ;
and the Vice-Chancellor having moved to the Con-
vocation-house the polling began. There were few
fluctuations throughout the day, Mr. Gladstone
being generally from 10 to 20 above his antagonist.
At the close of the poll the numbers were :
Mr. Gladstone 269
Lord Chandos 246
Majority

On Mr. Gladstone's side there polled, among the
residents, the Vice-Chancellor, the Heads of Oriel,
Queen's, New College, Brasenose, and Jesus College;
Professors Donkin and Philipps, Messrs. Moberly,
Ridding, and Jones (University), G ress well (Corpus),
Cornish (Magdalen Hall), &c. ; while among non-
residents we noticed the Marquis of Kildare, Lord
Henry Lennox, M.P., Right Hon. Stuart Wortley,
Right Hon. E. Cardwell, M.P., C. Forster, M.P.,
Sir R. Bethell, M.P., John Walter, M.P., H. La-
bouchere, M.P., Mr. Grant Duff, M.P., Judge Cole-
ridge, Mr. Justice Wightman, Mr. Roundell -Palmer,
Sir J. W. Awdry, Mr. N. W. Senior, Dr. Miller, of

of Wells, Canon Bartholomew, &c. On the other
side there voted the Senior Proctor, the Heads of
Wadham and Worcester, Right Hon. J. W. Hen-
ley, M.P., Right Hon. S. Estcourt, M.P., J. B.
Mowbray, M.P., H. Ker Seymer, M.P., Sir T.
Gladstone, Seymour Fitzgerald, ALP., Sir Massey
Lopes, Sir Brook Brydges, &c.
The subjoined notice has been issued by the Vice-

sent the University in Parliament will be taken on
