ELECTIONS.

DURHAM.
DURHAM, TUESDAY, FEB. 6.—The numbers on
the gross poll were—
For Sir H. Hardinge
For Mr. Robertson 76

Majority
Sir Henry was therefore declared duly elected,
amidst the loud and long-continued cheers of his
friends, and the no less tumultous disapprobation of
the other party.
The return having been signed by the Mayor, Sir
Henry was immediately chaired round the city. In
the evening he entertained a large party of his
friends to dinner, at the Waterloo Inn. The usual
scenes of intemperance and tumult were witnessed
in the evening; but altogether the election was very
flat. Sir Henry Hardinge may thank the bad ma-
nagement of his opponents more than his own
popularity for his success. Had Mr. Robertson
sppesrall in p...r,0n, cye a on the second day of the
election, it is thought by the best informed persons
that the result would have been %% idely different.
