man ascended his barouche amid the hearty greetings of an im-
mense crowd. He then stood up in his carriage, and addressed
the multitude in nearly the following words:—
" Gentlemen-1 thank you most heartily for the warm and
inthusiUstic manner in which you have received me, and I feel
convineed.that I have your ardent wishes for my success at Aln-
wick.—(Cheersi.)—Thanks, thanks to the exertions of my friends
---thanks, to the misjudged exertions of my enemies; my cause is
now about to be triumphant against all hostility, against all op-
position. It gives me great satisfaction to find that I have hither-
to proceeded in this contest in such a manner as to meet with your
entire approbation. My cause is your cause—it it an honest
cause---it is the cause of the independence of Northumberland—
(Cheers and great applause. )—lt shall be fought as it becOMes
freemen to fight their cause, temperately, but boldly and fearless-
ly." Mr. B.'s brief address was received with the loudest
plaudits by the immense number of persons who literally. tilled
the street all the way from the Nunsgate to the end of the High
Bridge. Mr. B. was drawn in his carriage, by men who at-
tached ropes to it, through the town amid such a concourse of
people, and such a feeling of enthusiasm on every side, as must
have been most gratifying to Mr. Beamone, and must indeed have
made any man proud. The cheers, the waving of handkerchiefs
and flags from the windows as he passed, presented a scene truly
heart-stirring.
On passing Mr. Bell's Committee-room at the George Inn, the
blue flag saluted the white, and the gentlemen of Mr. Bell's Com-
mitter appeared at the windows, and loudly cheeredllr.Beaurnont.
and his friends. The same courtesy was extended by the Hon.
Mr. Liddell's Committee as the procession passed the Queen's
Head Inn. Mr. Beaumont's cortege was very imposing. It
WSJ headed by a noble white flag, bearing " Beaumont and Inde-
pendence." Then followed the fine band of musicians, playing
some of their liveliest tunes : then came the carriages, about eight
in number, many of them drawn by four horses, the whole pro-
timely ornamented with dashing white cockades.
Lord Howick was out here, but his baud paraded up and
down the streets. The lion. H. T. Liddell was at Eslington,
but his brother, the Hon. T. Liddell, anti his uncle, the Rev.
G. H. Liddell, of Boldon, passed through this town about half-
past twelve o'clock, on their way to Alnwick, accompanied by the
cheers of a considerable crowd auembled at the Queen's Head on
their departure.
• Mr. Beaumont's visit at Hexham, on Friday last, produced an
enthusiasm, such as is seldom witnessed. Shortly after his arrival
he addressed the immense crowd assembled, from the Black Bull
Inn, to the following effect :---
"Gentlemen,---I return you my sincere thanks for the kind
and enthusiastic manner in which
,I have been greeted upon my
entrance into the town of Hexham. The enthusiasm manifested
upon this occasion has been, I am convinced, ealled,forth by the
attempt which has recently been made to crush your late repre-
sentative.--(Several cries of "it has, it has.")—On that occasion
the manoeuvre resorted to, viz.: that of gaining their object by
assailing my private character, has tended to advance me in the
estimation of every roan who has a heart in his bosom; of which
I have a proof in the votes which have this day been given to me.
have also an evidence of it in the appro-
bation of the fair sex.—(Loud cheers and waving of handker-
chiefs.)—This approbation, I am convinced, no one will receive
whose conduct is not above reproach, and the conduct of no one
in private life stands higher, I hope, than that of your late repre-
'sentative. Before concluding, I shall say a few words upon the
late member for Durham, who came into this county to attack my
private character. We must take the will for the deed ; his will
was to injure me,—(Cries of " it was,")—but he has by his con-
duct in reality served my cause. I shall here contrast his beha-
viour with that of a nobleman of high rank in this county, who is
as much raised above Mr. Lumbton, in wealth and dignity, as in
nob eness of mind-1 mean the Duke of Northumberland, who,
at the late contest, and on the present occasion, has pursued a
line of conduct which reflects the highest credit upon him ; he
has kept within the limits that our laws and usages prescribe to
a peer of the realm ; and I can asure you, that to my certain
knowledge, he has not influenced a single vote.—(Cheers. )—How
unlike the member for Durham, who, to gain, his point,. cares
'not whose feelings he wounds. I care not what May say of me, for
I am satisfied that the honest men who are around the feel indignant
that a foreigner should come to disturb the peace pf the county.—
(Cheers.)—Nature will do all she can—drowning men will patch
at straws; so it has been with my enemies; when ,they found
they could nut gain their ends by fair and honourable means, they
had recourse to weak supports, and hesitated not to mix up pri-
vate affairs with public occasions. On Tuesday last we triumphed,
and 1 feel confident on Tuesday. next We shall triumph
(Loud cheers. ).--.We must nut, howevar, relax in unr effoi te, ana
I &lon. you to nee all your inflni.nee to ineteuee the blAtTUnktra un
my behalf. I now take leave of you, and 1 k'olie you wilt meet
me on Tuesday, at Alnwiek, to secure my return, and when I
again have the pleasure of being amongst you, the cry will he,
Beaumont and Victory !" Anti, certainly, judging from present
appearances, every thing does indicate victory to the independent
Candidate.—Neweastle-upon-Tyni, June 19.
