NORTHUMBERLAND.

ALNWIDK, MONDAY (SIXTD nay).
The contest is still carried on with vigour, and no party has yet
evinced, any symptom of withdrawing. Though Lord Ilowick is
still last upon the poll to-day, he is determined to stand out to
the last day. With the exception of the partial contest between
Mr. Bell and Mr. Liddell, at the beginning of the last Session of
the last Parliament, this county has not witnessed a contest since
1774.

Mr. LIDDELL then came forward amid loud cheers. He
begged the freeholders to accpt his warmest thanks for again
placing him at the head of the poll—at the head by larger and in-
creased majorities.—(Loud cheers).—Of this situation he was
justly proud, because it was to the independent and unbought free-
holders alone that he was indebted for the elevated position upon
which he stood. Let his friends but Continue their exertions a
few days longer, and be hail no doubt of standing confirmed in
the proud situation of being their Representative.---(Cheers).
JOHN GREY, Esq. of Miltield, asked Mr. Liddell to produce
the correspondence between him and Mr. Beaumont, which he
had promised on a former day, when
Mr. LIDDELL replied, they were in the.press, and would soon
appear.
Mr. Bait thanked the freeholders for platting him so near to
the head of the poll,
.and begged of them to redouble their exer-
tions in' his behalf tilt he was placed at the head.
Mr. BEAUMONT next addressed the Freeholders. There was
a Gentleman in the crowd wishing to speak a few words to him.
Let there be a compact between them before they begin. He did
not care whether he spoke first, second, third, fourth, or fifth,
if he spoke some time. If any Gentleman wished to speak first,
he was quite agreeable; hut let them not both speak together.—
Mr. Bell has come forward in his usual frank' and manly manner,
and made a charge against him, respecting which he wished to
say a few words. The result would disprove the charge—it
would prove the opposite to he the truth. He could prove that
no coalition existed between him and Mr. Liddell, but the jititi-

. _
liable and honourable coalition popular feeling ; and would endea-
your to show how just would be their indignation against the orte
which bad been employed against hini,—(Gbeers.)---It WAS not
enough to way there. was no 'coalition; thla wws
reply to Mr. Bell, anti, by the bye, a: 46M with Mr. Bell,
for though on the' hustings they were' etetuies, in private
they were friends, and they would shake!. bends before
they begun, and after, if he liked.--(Both the 6ndidates here
stretched items, and cordially shook hands.).;—:This attack Upon
hiM commenced long before Mr. lien thought of coming into
Parliament, and when at length hi did come:in, he found hitri-
self in a harness, from which •hccould not extriate himself. He
had no chance of being returned, unlesa he came forward in the
trammels and shackles of a well-knoWn party, who would not
have supported him otherwise..--Ile did. not accuse hiM—he
could not avoid' it # he was in:harness from 'whiCh he could not
extricate himself. • - •
' Mr. Wavrets, the attorney of Mr. the lion. Gen-
Ileum produce one instance of threat?—(Cries of; no interriip-
tion, and hissing.) •
Mr. litattatotrt —The gentleman has asked me to produce an
instance where threat Las been used. • I will tell you why I do
not name the individuals threatened, though if he likes, I will
name the individuals threatening, for such is the acrimony and
unsparing rancour of the agents of Greenwich Hospital; that
the individuals of them would be crushed.
Mr. WALTZRN asked, if that was to be taken OS in answer?
Mr. Beaumont—He did not mean to say that was a full an-
swer--the fault was beyond Mr. Brandling. It originated with
the Ultra Tory faction, in Northumberland, and confirmed by
the Admiralty setting in London, which left no opportunity un-
tried to'crush 'an independent candidate, even by the most abomi-
nable means. If any proofif any sly information were wanting
he would take it frown the speech of his Honourable opponent, Mr.
Hell. No man complained till he found he had the worst of it.
Es (Mr. Beaumont) did not complain even when lie had been at
the foot of the poll. If a man quarrelled with his wife and had
the worst of it, he was the first to sneak out and complain to his
friends.—(Some hisses.)—These gentlemen were beaten by their
wives, and don't wish to bear me. Melt seldom complained
when they were satisfied and happy. Complaint on the pert of
Mr. Bell was a proof of weakness, over which their kind and
energetic exertionorwould triumph, and he hoped they would not
let the cause of independence out of sight till they placed him at
the head of the poll, when he assured them he would not eon'-
. plain. .

Lord Howtcx said his situation on the rail was certainly one
not calculated to inspire him with sanguine hopes, but if his
hopes were even still less he was determined to stand there to the
last day, to give the freeholders who had promised him their sup-
port, an opportunity of recording their good faith and sincerity.
He was not satisfied that he heard the observation of Mr. Beau-
mont distinctly, hut to those that he had heard, he was compelled
reluctantly to advert. The existence of a coalition was proved,
and if he were defeated by its influence he would be its victiM.
A more disgraceful coalition of opposite principles was not to he
found recorded in the annals of elections. But he hoped the
freeholders would show their indignation by refusing their sup-
port to such a party. He therefore urged them, and his own
friends to split upon Mr. Bell. Even if he were to lose the
election by it, he advised them to split upon upon Mr. Bell rather
than Mr. Beaumont. He would' not now detain the meeting
longer. Certain charges, he understood, were- to be brought
forward against him to-day, if so, he was now ready to answer

theni.
Mr. Linns.l.l. said, as no charge made against him had been
supported, it was not necessary for him to detain them longer.
The meeting then quietly dispersed.

ALNWICK, TOISDAY.
(rnox * `CORRISTONDSST.)
The candidates are now completely divided into two parties—
Liddell and Beattmont on one side, and Bell and Howick on the
other. The eleetitm of Mr. Liddell is on all hands admitted to
be secure, while that of Lord flowiek is quite as generally ad-
mitted to he hopeless. The real contest is-therefore between Bell
and Beaumont ; and the friends of the latter grow more and more
confident of his ultimate success. lie is known to have the most
votes remaining, hut aft miny of his friends are to he brought
from a considerable distance, time is required to bring them up.
There seems to-day no likelihood at all of the poll closing this
Week. All the /pent bons in the interest of either Mr. Bell or
my Lord Ilowiek have polled to-day, even Mr. Bell himself voted
for Lord Rows k. Unites Mr. 'Bell • should rise considerably
higher on the pa, it is certain he must lose his election. The

My dear Madam---In answer to your letter, only received this
day, I must beg it to be distinctly understood that I rest my
claims to the vacant representation solely upon the ground of
coining forward on the Tory interest of the colitity, and that I
'cannot consent to implicate myself in any degree "with tiny other
candidate whatever. The sentence in my last letter, alluding to
Mr. Wentworth Beaumont, was simply given as a matter of opi-
nion, without the smallest hint or intention of reciprocity.
I have the honour to be, dear Madam,
Yours very faithfully,

IRELAND.

WATERPORD COUNTY.—SacoNn DAY, FRIDAY.
Large masses of freeholders were found here this morning, from
every part of the county, on jaunting-cars and other odd descrip-

ions of vehicles.

At an early hour the several candidates appeared at the hustings.
Mr. Powmt and Mr. STaw.tivr were greeted with loud applause;
but Lord GEORGE BERVITORD Was assailed with a storm of hisses,

and cries of " No road dog—no whip-cord—no Orangeman !"
Mr. Bum, Chairman of the County, was appointed as assessor
to the Sheriff; and Mr. Wallace and Mr. O'Connell, as the pro-
fessional friends of Lord G. Bertsford and Mr. Stewirt, took
their places with him on the bench. The poll-booths were
then opened, and the contest began with an earnestness which has
seldom been equalled. The agents at both sides seem to consider
themselves as partisans engaged in a cause where their existence
was at stake, and they fight over every vote with the most per-
plexing ardour ; scarcely one man is polled in each hoinh in a
quarter of an hour. The Bribery Oath is offered indiscriminately
at all sides—though I have heard some of Mr. Stewart's adherents
deny that it is pressed at his. The agents are all speakers, and
delight in showing their ingenuity. Some of them delight in
more, and are reckoned very useful in deeds as well as in words.
Take one. cue—Mr. Rowan Cturhell is an attorney, who is secured
at all elections for a certain fame he has acquired from a hardihood
Of manner which puts down all opposition, unless the agent of the
other side, is equally fond of twelve paces as he is. Instructions
Were given to his opponents in this case, to avoid all personal
altercation, and to appeal on all disputed points to. the Assessor's
Deputy ; hut Mr. Cashell's teat was so active in the course of the
day, that even the Deputy had to appeal to the'Assessor and the
High Sheriff against him.
Mr. BARON, the Deputy, rushed into Court with Mr. Rowan
close at band, 'and a host of mutual friends, and Mr. Baron
claimed the attention of the High Sheriff, saying, "Sir, I require
your protection-=-I give my opinion on a disputed point between
this Gentleman and the agent at the opposite side, whirls appeared
to dissatisfy him, soul he has loaded Inc with the most opprobrious
terms.. It. hua tlxirt, I wra neither an bonatc .it' 1!4";"`""'"r
lawyleff'end used aniix vile langnai443 as I hive nave, Bert,) in the
course of my lire."
Mr. Casitro.--A voter was produced by me, I tendered his
certificate, and you refirsed it. I had no 'personal interest in the
case—l did not desire to offend you. What object could I have
in offending you? I have a painful duty to discharge—men are
. seducing from us the very tenants we are polling--I would not
.take'a thousand pounds to come down again to ihis e/Oction.
The Asszcsoit—l said to yon Mr. Deputy, that youbad a right
to commit any person who interfered with you in discharge of
your duty. ' •
Mr. CAIMIML—I can do no more than this—l say I did not
mead to offend you.
Mr. O'CoNNELL—I call on the Sheriff to commit any man who
dares to trespass againsforder and decoriim. -
Mr. Wau.ace.—And I call on you, Mr. Sheriff, to prevent
Mr. O'Connell playing the advocate now; as he has done before,
in direct violation of the law. • •
Mr. CABIIEI4—I resign my trust.
Mr. Banoti—No;' I have come to tender my resignation with
you—l cannot 'preside in a booth where a man acts whose very
first step was to insult the Sub-Sheriff. I vow most solemnly
never to act in the Court 'where he is again. -
Mr. Casitzt.t.—l neither directly nor indirectly intended to
insult you.
Mr. BARON—I want no apology—l will take none—l will
have nothing to do with you or it.
.The HIGH Sm.etre—The state of the public mind, and the
wish I have to avoid doing any act which might he construed by
either party, prevents Inc acting in a decided manner by you Mr.
Cohen.' ' The respectability of the Gentleman (one of the agents)
who has spoken for you, also influences me in some degree. I
will say no more ; but I beg, Sir, • I may not have a renewal of
these complaints.
The parties then withdrew, on the understanding that Mr.
Cashel' was to be removed to another booth.
At seven o'clock the High Sheriff announced the numbers to
be,
for
.—Power • - 234 Lord G. &rotor(' - 160
Mr: Stewart - 227
Lord G. Botesenan said, that he had only begun the contest,
and that his opponents'had a majority on that day's poll. Ry the
middle of next week'they would not find themselves so high ; and
Mr. Stewart declared that he had no doubt the Noble Lord would
give up the contest in 48 hours, and allow the freeholders to go

home and get in their hay.
Mr. STEWART addressed the crowd at great length ; as did
Mr. O'CONNn.L, who began by declaring, upon his honour, that
be was tired of beating the Beresfords, though he ungenerously
added insult to what he called dekat.

SATIJADA.Y.-.-TIIIRD DAY.

the voter, and cries of—That's a boulelhaeen boy (a good fellow);

FIRST DAY, SATURDAY, JUNE 24.

ATTACK UPON COLONEL LISLIK ♦ND ILIA FILUNDA--CONFLICT

BETWEEN THE MOB AND THE POLICE-411E14 Or THE FOR,
MEE. SHOT, Sec.
The town of Monaghan in the early part of the forenoon
scarcely presented the slightest appearance of an election—there
were but few persons in the streets, and those few were peaceable
and orderly. , • •
At twelve o'clock a loud *hoisting from the direction of Rost-
, more Perk announced the approach of Mr. Wentenra., and iu a
few minutes after, between five and six hundred men, each armed
with a newly-cut bludgeon, and decorated with a sprig of laurel
in their hats, entered the Diamond flourishing their sticks. The
Diamond was at this time completely crowded with men, all
armed, without a single exception, with large ;dicks. The infu-
riated appearance of the mob, their hideous yellingii, added to the
flourishing of the bludgeons, presented an appearance truly appall-
ing. At half-past twelve a simultaneous attack was made upon the
police, which they contented themselves with merely resist-
ing ; nothing like offensive operations having been resorted to by
them. The foot police were stationed in front of the Court-house,
and for a time kept a portion of the mob, who attempted to force
the position, in check. The horse police were scattered through
the mob, in vain striving with the flats of their 'swords to disperse
them. Several of the mounted police were knocked from their
horses, and beaten with savage fury when down. The foot po-
lice were obliged to give way, and took up a position in the
church-yard. The mob, however, did not think it wise to follow.
them into this strong-hold, and they contented themselves with
shouting and flourishing their sticks. In the centre of the Dia-
mond at this moment the battle raged with the greatest fury, and
thither the mob who had routed the foot police repaired. The
police being thus relieved from their presence, again entered the
Diamond ; and the horse police being again obliged to give way,
'owing to the great accession of strength which their adversaries
had received, it was deemed necessary, in order to rescue them
'from the imminent danger which threatened them, to give or-
ders to the foot police to fire. The orders were promptly, obey-
ed, when the mob fled with the greatest precipitation, leaving
three of their comrades stretched upon the ground. A message
had been despatched on Colonel Leslie's arrival, to the barrack,
where a party of the 'lsth regiment were stationed, ordering
.them
forthwith to repair to the scene of action, and immediately
after the police had fired the military arrived, and formed in front
of the Court-House, where they continued during the remaining
part of the day. I could not help remarking that in a moment
after the discharge of musketry had taken place, not a single stick
was to be seen ; the crowd, however, continued daring the day to
remain in the Diamond, but not a word escaped from them, nor
did they even attempt to raise a single cheer. The•three officers
commanding the police are all wounded, and I believe every pri-
vate on duty is similarly circumstanced.
About two o'clock order being in some degree restored, the
Court-house doors were thrown open, and in a few minutes every
place was occupied. After the preliminary proceedings had been
gone through--;
Coronet Mannim rose and addressed the Meeting.
Mr. Lucas next rose, and in a speech of considerable length,
which our limits preclude us from giving, proposed Mr. Westenra.
Colonel CAER seconded the nomination of Mr. Westenra.

Mr. Trioasox next rose for the purpose of putting Mr.
Shirley in nomination, and commented with great ability and
force upon the objections urged by Mr. Lucas against Mr. Shirley.
Mr. Foxe's seconded the proposition of Mr. Tonniason, and
considered the extent of Mr. Shirley's property was the best
security which the County could have for his discharging the
duties of a Representative with fairness and honour. .A.• a land-
lord, Mr. Shirley was unequalled. Mr. Shirley had been repre-
sented as a stranger, but he (Mr. Forbes) was confident that those
who now thought him a stranger will, before seven years revolve,
unanimously agree to place him in that chair which he, for the
first time that day, aspired to fill.—(Cheers.)
Colonel Lentz then addressed the electors, and said that he
had for twenty-six years pursued the same line of conduct, and
that be was now too old to change it.—(Cheers.)
On the question being put, upon Colonel Leslie's nomination,
Counsellor CORLEY addressed the meeting in favour of Mr.
Westenra and the independence tithe county, and contended ebd
Mr. Westenra was as much at liberty now to oppose the Roman
Catholic claims as he had ever been.
Mr. Tirmxteou—l ask you, Colonel Leslie, do you go free
franoiml unshackledpledge unne-
cessary. _._(Cheers. )
Neither Mr. Westenra nor Mr. Shirley attempted to address
the electors.
The High Sheriff was then sworn to'snake a fair return, and
and the Court was adjourned to 17.44
m r„4
-Y) when the polling is to
commence.

Another correspondent calls upon us to recommend
those who keep dogs► to give them plenty of water this
hot weather. He also recommends those who keep
birds, to put a large sized tea-cup full of water into
their cages, that the poor birds may wash themselves
free from the vermin that pester them at this tune of
the year.

( From the Journal des liebats.)
" The promulgation of a constitutional charter in Portugal is by
no means a diplomatic question. Diplomacy has for its object the
relations between States. It arranges alliances, conventions, and
territorial cessions. • It negotiates and draws up treaties. In a
Nord, it is the organ of external policy.
" A diplomatist, who should meddle with the internal affairs of
foreign country, who might pretend, for example, to support the
Jesuits at Paris, the Apostolic* at Madrid, or the Absolutists at
Liken, would only be an illustrious intriguer. We have seen a
Monarch beloved by all true. Royalists, Gustavus 111., dismiss igno-
miniously an Ambassador, who extended the circle of diplomacy to
intercourse with a domestic faction.
" It is not to be supposed that the existing diplomacy, full of
rflPect for the legitimacy, will dare to disregard the grand and
outilime act by which the Emperor Don Pedro has assured to his
"'wry legal liberty and a representative system. It is an set of
that full and entire sovereignty with which this Prince was in-
'wed and seized upon the death of his august father. Never was
thtts any transaction more free, more independent of foreign in-
asPnce, and of every motive of fear. No bold is afforded for that
istelent diplomacy which has elsewhere suceoeded in intruding
'Wt. between nations and legitimate kings. Will diplomatists ven-
lure to go to Lisbon, and say to the people, Arm yourselves
litainst Don Pedro, the lawful heir of John IV., because he gives
)1)4 a Constitution ?' Such, doubtless, could only be diplomatists
rest clandestinely .by Mont-Rouge, emissaries of the Jesuits : for
With them there is no other legitimacy than th% theocracy of
lidsgrida. But the Regency of Portugal watch's over the fron-
Lters; and would receive Ambassadors of o.lis kind with the
amours due to them.
e' The act of fundamental legislotior,, which opens so happy a
Perspective to the Portuguese natio":l, is an act of internal policy
*--nf high and profound..polio.;. What foreign Power has any
light to interfere with it? e..4tippose this act should offend, alarm,

that such an example sbould be thought dangerous to the Spaniards

fa:. from presenting any danger to Spaiu—far from
rm& 'tile real friends of Monarchy, and, we may add, the real
:flak 'of the Spanish Bourbons,—the establishment of a
`charter at Lisbon is the most fortunate event which could

Dutch ..Papers to the 27th instant were received last
night. It is stated, under date of Constantinople 27th
ssy; that on the 12th OF that month, the CAPITAN
lIACHA had returned to the Dardanelles with thirty-
three vessels to tr:ke in ammunition, 'provisions, and
hoops. It was expected that as soon as they should
kave been embarked, he would set sail for the' Archi-
Pelago to 36in-the squadron under IBRAHIM PACIIA,
Which consisted) of twenty-eight ships, and to make a
'cokbilked attack upon the island of Hydra, which how-
ever, had been well prepared to meet and to repel it.

that time and circumstances do not at present permit
the submitting the plan of a new law to the States of
Finland, and that his-Majesty, therefore, exercises his
Prerogative of pardon or - commutation; It is, how-
thetight advisable that persons sentenced to per-
Petual imprisonment and labour in lieu of death, should

GENOA, Jura 10.—A teport has been in circulation since

between ectt pirates of the islands of the Archipelago, and the

lucci.—Dutch Paper.
The King of Prtisaia has given permission, according to the
precedent of I '774i.for the celebration of the Jubilee in the Catholic

sued on the occasion, only with the understanding that the expres,.
lions occurring in this Bull, which are inconsistent with the
rights and privilqes of the Evangelic Church shall be considered
as null.---. Dutch Paper.

It has been often remarked, that an open enemy is
less to be dreaded than an injudicious.friend.
The truth of this adage was never more forcibly ex-
emplified than in a circumstance which has lately oc-
curred. The Courier, in the heat of its zeal for the
cause of the LoWTHERS in, Westmoreland, and the
overthrow of Mr. BROUGHAM'S hopes, • appears on
Saturday last to have put into its report of Colonel
LOWTHER'S speech, some words which were not heard
by those•who were present, and which might well be
considered as offensive to Mr. BROUGHAM'S personal
courage, from the insinuation they contained. On the
receipt of the Courier at Appleby, a friend of Mr.
BROUGHAM waited upon Colonel LOWTHER to as-
certain whether the Colonel had tittered the words at-
tributed to him, in
.any part of his speech which had
not been heard by Mr. BROUGHAM s friends. The
Colonel, in the most open, direct, and manly manner,
declared at once that he had never used any such ex.
pressions as those put into his mouth, and repeated
the words he did use. On the subject being.nien-
tioncd on the hustings on Monday, Colonel Low THER
referred to the words he had actually used, and very
properly added, that he was not answerable for any re-
port or obserVatiOnS which might he made elsewhere.
The words thus proved to have been an addition
made by the Courier to 6)lonel LOWTHER'S speech,
are those in Italics in the following sentence.
" He believed the Learned Gentleman would, if he
took the trouble to inquire into' it, find that he under-
stood his trade, which was fighting, quite as well as
the Learned Gentleman did his, which was talking :
and if he had any of the quality which ought to be-1
long to his profession to spare, it might not perhaps
prove .unacceptable to the Learned Gentleman,
(hear, hear!) from whom he would have no objection
to take in return a portion of his oratory."
It certainly was very unlikely that Colonel Low-
THER should have used these words. It would have
been a gasconade entirely inconsistent with his charac-
ter, and one which he would never have condescended
to make against Mr. BROUGHAM. The addition of
them to his speech by a paper advocating his cause,
subjected him to the imputation of having sanctioned
their insertion, and the effect which the recourse to
such a proceeding would naturally produce, could not
fail to be injurious to the cause it was meant to assist.
We therefore cannot do otherwise than join in the
condemnation passed upon our eoteMporary, by the
journals in the interest of Mr. BROUGHAM. We are
as anxious for the cause of the LOWTIIERS ,to tri-
umph in Westmoreland, as the Courier can be, 'but
we never would endeavour to support it by any other
than those fair and manly mean's which'are most in ac-
cordance with, the principles on which it rests. We
advocate their cause, because we consider that the pro-
perty • and conduct of the LOWTHERs justly entitle
them to the representation of the county, while' their
political principles are as they have been, in unisOn
with the principles of the Constitution, and its best
and most important interests: and we oppose the re-
turn of Mr. BROUGHAM, because we consider him as
not having either from property or other circumstances,
any pretensions whatever to represent Westmoreland,
and because we admire not his political creed, nor the
mode in which he has conducted himself in or out of
Parliament.

The contest, therefore, in Westmoreland stands in
our opinion, on grounds which require no other sup-
port than a fair consideration of thg pretensions of all
the candidates, and we are certain that it will terminate
in the manner which all rational persons must desire.
But to accomplish this end, the most zealous of the
true friends of the LOWTHERS wish no departure
from the eternal principles of justice and truth.
Since writing the above, we have received by express
the State of the Poll on Tuesday afternoon, by which
it will be seen that Mr. BROUGHAM has again lost
ground.

L igTELLtdENCE:

COURT OF CHANCERY.—(Tits DAY.)

EX-PARTE ROBERTS IN -THE•MATTER OF ROBERTS,
A BANERUPT.

Mr. WAK.EiIEt,b was instmeted to say, that the
statement made yeSterday by 'Mr. Horne, on behalf of
the bankrupt, that the other-sids had refused to give a
copy of the deposition as to• the petitioning creditors'
debt, was altogether unfounded. The fact was, that
the application had been made for a copy of the whole
of the depositions.
His LoRDSHIP said, that he never would, have
ordered, and that it was excessively wrong for Gentle-
men, when they cattle' to complain, not to take care
that they were accurate in what they said. The very
contradictorystate of the affidavits and depositions alone
induced the Court to take this mode of disposing,of
the matter. All the Court meant was, that the
party should, at the trial, be bound to make out the
act of trading, the petitioning creditor's 'debt, as de-
scribed in the docket papers and the act of bank-
ruptcy ; and that for the purpose of all parties knowing
that the debt was proved according to the deposition,
it was necessary that a' copy of the deposition, as far as
it went to describe the debt, should be furnished. This
the Court again ordered.
