REPRESENTATION of LAMBETH.
The third of the series of meetings of the electors of
Lambeth was held last night, at the Rossmary Branch
l'ay.rn, Southampton-street, Peckham, to bear from
➢ir. William Williams, one of the candidates, a state-
ment of his political opinions. The meeting, which
aas very fully alended, was presided ever by Charles
Jones, Esq., chairman of the Lambeth Electoral A -
eciation.

Mr. WILLIAMS proceeded at once to recapitulate the
great political questions which had (tome under discus-
sion during the thirteen years he sat in Parliament, and
referred to the votes he had given upon them. lie chal-
lenged any individual to point to a single instance in
which he ever recorded his vote or raised his voice
against the interests of the people. That course he was
determined to continue to pursue, and he would so far
give his constituents the advantage of annual Parliaments
as to present himself at the close of each session to them,
and if they should be dissatisfied with his conduct, he
would, within twenty-four hours, place his seat at their
disposal.-.--(Cheers.) Relying on his past conduct as a
guarantee for the future, he was there to give a full and
honest ,answer to any question that might be now pro-
pounded to him.
In answer to several electors Mr. WILLIAMS declared
himself to be in favour of a full and efficient legal re-
form; that he would vote, as he had already, for the
abolition of the window-tax, thinking it unjust to tsx
the two greatest gifts of the Creator, air and light, and
lastly, that he would give his energetic support to any
proposition for the total abolition of church-rates.
Mr. LYON then moved, and Mr. BARKER seconded,
a resolution to the effect that the meeting
having heard
with satisfaction the explanation which Mr. Williams
has given of his political opinions, and viewing his con-
sistlnt conduct as a Member of the House of Com-
mons tor thirteen years, considers him eminently qua-
lified to represent the borough of Lambeth in Parlia-
ment, .and pledges itself to use every effort to secure
his return.
After a few words from Mr. ELKINGTON in support of
the resolution,
Mr. NANCE inquired whether Mr. Williams would
support the points contained in the document called and
known as the "People's Charter."
Mr. WILLIAMS replied that when the petition in
favour of the " People's Charter" was presented by Mr.
Attwood, then Member for Birmingham, he (Mr. Wil-
liams) had moved its reception. On every occasion on
which Mr. Duncombe had brought forward a motion
founded on the charter, he (Mr. Williams) had supported
him, and he would again support any motion for the
consideration of every point embraced in that document.
The resolution then passed unanimously, and thanks
having been voted to the chairman, the meeting
broke up.

A second meeting was held l'at the Lecture-hall,
Walworth, which was also attended by
Mr. Williams, and where his reception was equally en-
thusiastic. Mr. .1. B. Eisdell occupied the chair, and
after hearing Mr. Williams at length, a similar resolu-
tion, moved by Mr. F. Poulton, was carried without a
dissentient voice.
A meeting of the electors was also hold last night at
the Swan Tavern, Stockwell, at which Mr. J. Hinds
Palmer attended, with a strong body of his supporters.

Mr. Higgins was accordingly declared to be duly
elected. According to the reporter of the Dublin News-
letter, the Marchioness of Sligo " was most grossly in-
sulted .by a mob of ungrateful savages in Westport on
Sunday afternoon, in cow quence of which the Marquis
has issued an older that the demesne shall be in future
closed against the townspeople." The same authority
states that Colonel Knox Gore was violently assaulted in
Batlina, and was forced to take refuge in the house of
a Dr. Atkinson, whose windows were broken. Some
other incideal outrages arc also mentioned, but upon
the whole the nt
excitement fea short of what might have
been expected.
TILE Ansty.—The 92 4 Highlanders, stationed in Kil-
kenny, have received orders to hold themselves in readi-
ness to embark for Bermuda early in September to
relieve the 42d Royal Highlanders at that station. The
60th Rifles are to replace the 92d in Kilkenny.
