TO THE FREEHOLDERS OF NORTHUMBERLAND.
GZNTIJNIZINI,
SINCE my return among you, I have received
more flattering marks of your approbation, and met with
more enthusiasm in the expression of it, than it was possible for me
to expect. If this does not show your confidence in me, what '
can? I consider that my succees at the approaching contest is
placed beyond a doubt. The cavils of my adversaries shall in
future be treated with entire contempt. Having hitherto answered
them seriously as soon as they were made, and finding that they
are still repeated, I plainly perceive the impossibility of pleasing
those who ars determined to be dissatisfied, and I shall neither
trouble you or myself by taking further notice of them. If I
enjoy the favour of the independent majority of the freeholders of
this county, I shall be , heedless of the objections which may be
insinuated againk me. Disappointment will ever produce vexa-
tion, and vexation will vent itself in complaint.
When 1 haVe again the honour of being returned by you to
Parliament, it ellen be my constant endeavour to promote the
interests and extend the liberties of my countrymen, as well as
to diffuse the blessings that we share over the whole world. The
pledgee which I have already given you to that effect are of greater
weight than the invidious recollection of the past, to which my
enemies are continually praying your attention. I look forward
with impatience to the day of election at Ainwick, when I shall be
honoured with the independent suffrages of the fre4holdersvand
shall receive the unequivocal testimony of their approbation at the
time and place appointed and required by the constitution.
1 have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your grateful and devoted Servant,
THOMAS WENTWORTH BEAUMONT.

premium, but it was also affected on Friday and Satur-
day, and left off at j, premium.
Fluctuations of considerable extent have taken place
during the week in all descriptions of Foreign Securi-
ties, particularly in those of the South American States.
On Saturday, however, a reaction took place, and an
improvement took place in the value of all South Ame-
rican Securities. Peruvian Bonds, which had been
sold as low as 27 in the week reached 33, and Colom-
bian Bonds, which had been 39, reached 43. Mexi-
can Bonds also improved, and left off about 64. 'The
prices of Shares, of all descriptions, remained nearly
nominal.

CITY, Tu•tive o' Clock,

Consols opened this morning at 79 to for the
Account, with little doing, alternatively there have
been buyers and sellers at the above price, with a
heavy Market. We have a great number of arrivals
this morning from all quarters, as well as several from
India, but not of so late a date as the last arrival from
Calcutta. The Royal George, a Chinaman, has been
•
burnt, with a homeward cargo on board:
This day is a holyday at the Bank, but the Stock
Exchange is open.—ln the Foreign Market little doing.
Up to the present hour very little speculation is going
forward.

One o' Clock.

Since twelve o'clock Consols have been fluctuating
from. 79 to 79if- for the Account, with very little
business doing, and Consols may be quoted up to the
present time at 79f buyers.

Two o' Clock.

Consols has rather improved within this half hour,
and are done at 79, for the Account, but no busi-
ness is doing to any extent.

KING'S THEATRE.

The attraction of Madame PASTA'S re-appearance'
on Saturday drew as crowded and brilliant an audience
to this Theatre as any with which it has yet been
graced during the present season, and her reception
was as enthusiastic as her peculiar merits demanded.
To a figure and countenance rather improved by some-
what more of fulness, or roundness, than she formerly
exhibited, she, in our judgment, adds a higher style
of execution and a more refined expression, than she
heretofore could boast. This Lady s tones, we think,
are in themselves much the same ; but certainly her
manner of. delivering them, and the sensibility she, no
less evinces in her acting than in the intonation of her
passages, whetherin recitation or air, are of irresistible
effect. The Opera was Rossim's Otello ; and,
chiefly owing to Madame PASTA'S extraordinary
powers, not feebly seconded by those of Cuniosr,
it extorted the most rapturous applause. After the
close of the piece, they came forward together, and
received fresh demonstrations of the delight they had
universally excited. As a matter of course, the Opera
was followed by D'EoviLLE's and BOCIISA's new
Ballet, and as a matter of course, its business, its
dancing, and its music, again charmed the admirers of
Ballet representetion.

" Another fine sun sheeny day, Colonel," said a
young Scots Cadet to his Commanding Officer the se-
cond day after his arrival at Madras, rubbing his hands
with great glee at the unclouded serenity of the heavens.
" I am afraid, before many days," said the old half-
baked Colonel, " you will not enjoy this weather so
much ;" and such, we fear, was the case.

. -
On Saturday the Exhibition of the Society of
Painters in Water Colours was visited by a large party
of distinguished Amateurs and Patrons of the, Fine
Arts, previous to opening to the public.
INQUEST.—An Inquest was held on Saturday
morning on the body of Mr. Acheson, who Was killed by a fall

upecbearing the evidence the Jury

Gentleman had come up from Scotland for the purpose of making
arrangements for the nuptials of his claughtee, which were to be
solemnized in a few days. Mrs. A. is, we understand, on her
road from Edinburgh, little conscious of the melancholy and awful
event which has taken place,

WESTMINSTER ABBEY.

When the subject of this venerable edifice was
brought before Parliament lately, we were surprised
that none of the critical. Connoisseurs of the Legisla-
ture. took the opportunity of noticing what to us ap-.
pears a glaring inconsistency in the present architectu-
ral appearance of the choir. We allude to the new
screen behind the altar, which, beautiful as it is, con-
sidered in itself, is completely at variance in its style
with all the rest of the edifice. The late screen was
removed, because a spurious kind of Romano-Grecian
architecture was thought improper in a Gothic church :
We applaud the taste which dictated this, but we
would ask, is it at all more consistent to place in a
building, which is the finest specimen of the early
painted English style, a screen which exhibits the
most florid decorations of the latest flat-arched
Gothic ?

ROYAL WESTMINSTER INFIRMARY

TRISH NEWSPAPERS.

Will Mr. 'fluine never haVe done blundering? We
really think the Honourable Gentleman aught to look
a little more closely into the character and credibility of
his informants. It was only a few months ago that
we had him preferring accusations of the most serious
natur,l, founded on the statements of a Gentleman who
has since figured in a different line—we allude to Mr.
Burridge, the poor man who has lately issued cards,
presenting his " compliments to the Kings, Lords,
and Commons," for their " obliging inquiries for the
salvation of bribery and corruption, and the damnation
of the navy, &c." In the debate of Friday night, re-
lative to the insertion of Government advertisements in
the Irish Newspapers, Mr. Hume is represented as
having committed blunders of the most glaring de-
scription. Can any thing be more absurd than the
idea of supposing that any improper influence was
exerted by Government in sending, as Mr. Hume is
reported to have stated, " 1801, to the Kerry Even-
ing Post, per Robert Shaw, Esq," It turns out,
however, that for « Kerry . Evening Post" we are to
read " Cork Advertiser, and that the only cause 'of
sending the money througli 'the hands of that Gentle-
man, waS simply his being a banker in Dublin con-
nected with the town .in 'which the - Paper
was published What renders the matter still more
ridiculous is, that the Cork Advertiser, the Paper al-,
luded to by Mr. Hume, and of which he is reported to
have stated that the amount of advertisements in the
year 1822 was reduced one-fifth, " which reduction ,
has still continued," has not been in existence for the
last tae years !

SHEERNESS DOCK YARD.

Some papers. have been printed by order of the
House of Commons relating to the works going for-
ward at Sheerness, accompanied with three plans, it-
spectively showing the yard in its original state, the
improvements suggested by the late Mr. Rennie, and
the whale of the repairs and improvements both in the
departments of the Civil Engineer and Arehitect,p3
finally decided upon and now in progress under a con-
tract with Messrs. Jollifre, Banks, and Nicholson,
dated Ist January; 182.5.. By this 'contract these
gentlemen agree .to complete every part of the work for
the sum of 864,000/. leaving it exclusively to the opi-
nion and judgment of the Navy Board's Engineers
whether the works are, executed: in a proper, work-
manlike, substantial manner, and binding' themselves
to make good anti• damage or failme which,may be dis-
covered m the course. of one year from the date of the
certificate of the engineers, as to the good performance
of the work.

, •.
Contrasting the original estimates of the late Mr.
Rennie, with the sum agreed. to be, paid to the con-
tractors, the difference is 92,5011. ni favour of the
Public; and, in the Department of the Architect, the
difference, is 62,5501. making a total of 155,0511.
Every exertion is now making to finish these works
with as much expedition. as possible ; and, from the
success which has hitherto attended the whole of the
operations, there is every reason to look forward with
confidence to an equally successful termination. Sheer-
ness dock-yard will then form one of the most com-
plete naval eStabliShments in the kinidom, and the in—
creased expedition. and economy with which ships of
war will be equipped and refitted for sea, will fully re-
pay the cxpenco and labour which have been em-.
ployed in contracting it.
If the plan Of forming a Great Naval Arsenal at
Northileet had been carried into effect, it. would not
have been necessary to do more at Sheerness than to
rebuild and restore the old portion of the yard, find
to construct a basin fir the refitting of, frigates and
smaller vessels, which heretofore were greatly re-
tarded in their equipment, by the difficulty and
occasional impossibility of communicating with
them when at moorings in the harbour. But
without the basin and. docks at Sheerness or
Northflect, it seems difficult to conceive in what way
the large fleet now in the Medway could have been
fitted for sea on any emergency, or even kept in a
proper state of repair; and in the event of any future
war with the Northern Powers, the importance of
Sheerness will be of the first consequence to the mari-
time interests of Great Britain.

THE FUNDS.

It taking a general review of the transactions on the
Stock exchange during last week,, we have no very im-
portant operations to notice, nor any violent fluctua..-
tions to report. The last price, on Saturday afternoon,
was exactly the same as the first price on the preceding
Monday, namely 79k1.—The loWest price during the
*reek was on Tuesday, when Consols declined to 78i,
`arriT the highest on Thursday afternoon and Friday
morning,; when they reached 79i. On the afternoon
of the laptet r day, in consequence of unpleasant reports
respecting. the intentions of the Russian Government
to commence hostilities with the Porte, the price de-
clined to .79k, and, although oh Saturday morning
Consols opened at the same price, they soon declined
to 79, and left off buyers at 79k. Some large sales
were made during the forenoon, by parties connected
with the west end of the town, which gave some de-
gree. of countenance to the reports respecting Russia,
and.. the general aspect of the market was gloomy.
Roney. Stock, which, in the early part of the week had
been very 'scarce, on Friday and Saturday became
abundant, notvs'ithstanding which, money in the Stock
txetiah ge: was also plentiful. In the commercial
HY94d, however, money still continued scarce, and Bills
were discounted with difficulty. The New Four per
Cent. Scrip had varied in price from I discount to 1/.

TO THE EDITOR OF TIIE MORNING HERALD.

Sra—Observing in your paper of yesterday's date, a " Return
of the number of Midshipmen promoted to the rank of Lieutenant
in the Royal Navy, between the Ist .of January 1825,and Ist ofJa-
nutu y 1826," in whichmy name is mentioned as having entered
the: service the 4th oMaiy 1819, I beg leave to state, in contra-
diction to the aourcewbence you received your information, that I
entered it on the Sd of May 1816.
Allow me to observe, in justice to the service at large, that from
the date of a person entering the profession, to the date of his
promotion to the. rank of Lieutenant, a conclusion is not to be
drawn that the intermediate time has been actually spent in the
service ; in many cases, quite the contrary; and if those who en-
tered the:Nary in 1800, 1805, and 1806, whose names have
been so emphatically mentioned, and drawn up, in comparison
with mine and some others, had remained in it eight years, with-
out leaving it, they would have been included in the promotion
that took place in 1815,'when all these who had served that time
with credit received Lieutenants' commissions.
Conceiving it but just, that when an officer's name appears be-
fore the public, the -facts mentioned concerning him should be
guided purely by truth, I trust you will give publicity to this state-
ment, and that it may find a place in your columns is the request
of—Sir, your obedient and bumble servant,

at all how he thought the verdict ought to be ; but he eoulti.not

On the candidates and their, friends proceeding to their several

attack on the outward barricadoes of the hustings, and on the pens
set apart for Mr. Evans and Mr. Denman, in order, it is supposed,

in the early pert of the poll a Placard was exhibited at the bust-

CITY ELECTION—(Tars DAY.)

This morning the contest proceeded with unprecedented vigour.
At about half-past nine, Alderman Thompson's Committee assem-
bled at the City of. London Tavern, and to the number of between
three and four hundred, proceeded in procession to the poll under
a banner, having " Thompson and Independence." A consider-
able intinher voted for Thompson and Ward, but the majority
voted independently. After that hour, Alderman Wood began to
recover. Even invalids were brought up in coaches, and one was
carried to the desk to poll. The applause and hisses of the crowds
were tremendous. Considerable exertions were made to keep the
hustings clear. At eleven o'clock the numbers were for
• Alderman Thompson - - 5832

from ttk. Broug'hain ;),...-and in the presence of those Hon. Mem-
bers around him—(Hear, hear! from Mr. Brougham;)—and that
I am not therefore properly answerable for any remarks or obser-
vations which may have been imputed tome elseivhere.—(Hear,
hear ! from Mr. Brougharn.)
Mr. BaotlOnam—l really Mint say that it would he the
grossest of all miscible iniquities, to consider any man breathing
answerable Inc an account which other men, for purposes of their
own; may publish ofwhat he never taid.
Mr. NtinanTow said that Mr. 13VOugharn having alluded to the
misrepresentation of Colonel Lowther, in which the Coltstiel was
made to say that Which he never said or contemplated to say, be
(Mr. W.) wished to call their attention'to a speech made by the
Colonel, in which be stated that had been misrepresented, and
admitted in the most candid manner, that he had not used the
words imputed to him. In animadverting upoh the tetittisition
of the freeholders to Mr. Brottgbatit, the Colonel had alluded to
him (Mr. Wharton) in a harsh and unnecessarily offensive way.
This being stated to , him, Its most handsomely and voluntarily •
admitted that he meant nothing offensive to. the ; that he bad
need the words (i. a that Mr. Wharton was kicked out for
Beverley") in the common electioneering acceptation, and that
he hoped I would think no more of them.
Mr. WYBURGII now showed a disposition to ,speak, but Mr.
Brougham, hinted that there had been speaking enough for this
day. Mr. W. said he would bare been glad to say a few words,
but was willing to take the advice of his friends, who seemed to
thick that enough had been said already. He would, therefore,
reserve his breath for another occasion, and not say a word more.
But what he was going to say was, that in the Courier they had
misrepresented his speech, as well as the others, for they bad
made him say that which he did not. In imitation, he supposed, of
the horum xcorum poetry which he (Mr.W.)had introduced into his
speech, the report in the Courier contained a postage which bore the
stamp of poetry, but whether it came from the distributor of
stamps for the county, or not, lie could not say. The whole was
a fabrication. The object of the report seemed to lie to give the
Colonel a tine answer to his (Mr. W.'s) very fine speech. So
much for the Courier and the reporters. (N. B. A report of
Thursday's proceedings could not have appeared in the London
Morning Papers till Monday, . which said Papers could not have
come down here till Wednesday next. So much for this most
ust and candid denunciation of the reporters).

THE MASQUERADE.

• On Tuesday night the Argyll Rooms were the scene of
festivity, and notwithstanding the heat of the weather,
the rooms were pretty well attended. A masquerade
is one of those places where a person inclined for fun
can always find it ; but to a simple spectator it is,
like Madame Vestris, always the same : they invariably
ice the same motley assemblage of watchmen, who can
say nailing but " Past 10 o'clock," and 4, ove on
sailors :who don't know a boarding-pike from a cap.
stern bar—soldiers who know as much of mounting .a
horse, as mounting a breach--blacklegs who play at
cards about as well as they could play Hamlet—and
lovers who perhaps know mote of hanging, by a neck,
than hanging —on one--=and so it was last night ; there
vY4s a harlequin, a " Wild Indian," who, if yelling
be the sign of perfection, performed his part most ad-
mirably, and, as might be expected, a Paul Pry. It
sestina` sornevvhat remarkable to us, that this character
should out-live the usual period (nine days) allotted
for the existence of his genus, but certainly there seemed
nn sign of a falling off in his popularity last night.
The attendance of 44 the maids who love the moon"
wait as numerous as usual, and the beauty of those
yhq had the courage to take off their masks, (and very
low were there who had not), seemed highly attrac-
tive. The champagne creamed and sparkled as usual,
and, with,the supper, gave very general satisfaction.
W eed', it se'emed' to invigorate the bibifyers and cal.
fyers to such an extent, that they were preparing for
fresh exertions when we left the rooms, having no in-
clinaticm .toy follow- die example of Sir John Falstaff,
whO iiiittated Mr. Ellistons personation of that cha-
Netcr with great precision.

SPARRING AT TUE TENNIS COURT.

Alio Reed, the Chelsea Snob, took his benefit yerterdayi and
had to be grateful for a respectable sprinkle of Noba—but he
again complained of the absence of his brother millers, many of
whom were not forthcoming. Upon the whole, however, the
amusements were good, and the promise of future business flat-
tering.

New MATCHIs.—Gas came forward, and said, as he had been
informed that Gaynor wished to fight him again (they fought be-
fore at Epsom Races, 1820, he was willing to make the match
far a hundred, and to stake forthwith. Gaynor answered the
call, and proposed that Gas, being the winning man, should fight
him 100 to 80, or 125 to 100. This (:;as declined, upon which
Gaynor agreed to meet him upon even terms ; and in order to
make the matter certain, N. a side was put down in the hand.
of Harty Holt, to be made 201. a side, to-morrow evening, et
the Cron, Cross-lane, Long-acre.—Bishop Sharpe also came for-
ward, and challenged Reed, and it was agreed that they should
meet at Josh Hudson's, Leadenhall Market, this evening, to make
a deposit.
Tres FIGHT rItTwIEN llicUatti Marius AND JANUAII.T.—.
Cross or no Cross?--This subject came under discussion in the
presence of the stakeholder, but neither of the umpires being pre-
sent, no decision was made, and the stakes still remain "as they
were." January's friends, or rather those who were backing
him, in broad terms assert that he lost the fight purposely; while
the other side, and the impartial few, declare that be never had
a chance. It turns out, however, that the intended biters were
bitten. In other words, certain parties, who were laying out
their money freely on January, had, with a view to make them-
selves sctfe, given Marten Sixty Pounds to lose the fight. This
sum Marten with great prudence put into his pocket, promising
to meet the views of his would-be seducers, and especially as he
was told that, after all was over, he should have another 60/.
But alas ; this well concocted scheme was frustrated. Marten
told his hackers whet lied been done, and avowed his positive in-
tention to 'win, notwithstanding the temptation to which he had
been exposed. The consequence was, that the aridity of the
" all right" num wee met by the.baekers of Marten, and thus lots
of pewter were linked. Marten, as we yesterday stated, won,
being true to himself and his real friend*, and the rogues were
floored in their own mire. This is as it should he. There can
be no doubt that the Stakeholder *lust give up the stakes to the
winning man. An attempt has been made to shut :Marten's
mouth, hut we understand he is to make an affidavit declaring
the name of the person from whom he received the hribe, and
who is well known in the sporting world ; we shall he happy to
stick him in the enviable aituation of a scarecrow, and to give
him all the benefit of publicity. To such men don the Ring owe
its present depreciated condition, and not to any want of. that
spirit with which it wail formerly patronised.

IMPORTANT TO FAMILIES.

FirlaN BEST COMMENT on the 'Virtues and
utuovating Efficacy of Dr. SOLOMON'S CELE-
B Ne'STED CORDIAL BALM OF GILEAD is the Cer.
rainty that Ladies of Fashion and Respectability find it the most
EffiCaCiOth Medical Restorative to be Met with in various
'WeikileSVlS peculiar to their Sex, gently throwing a genial
~warmth upon the debilitated and relaxed frame, recruiting the
•decayed spirits, dissipating headache, dulness, and languor,
and creating a planting vivacity. The great extent to which it
is used by the Sickly, the Nervous, and the Debilitated, proves
its unrivalled merit ; to thousands of whom it is daily affinding
relief which no other Medicine has supplied.
To those whom early indulgence of the Passions—Dissipa-
Oen, nr too great Reliance on Constitutional Strength, have
'Seen hijorithis ; to the Sufferer from Lowness of Spirits, Heavi-
ness of Mind, Deranged Stomach, Languor, and Incapacity
for Exertion ; to those in 'whom the Digestive and Nervous
Syateina have been deranged, and consequently labouring under
irregular and inlaid action ; and to' those perxons who have
=t'i'ned, • their Constitutions, and Nought on a perfect Tabett
borealis, by an immoderate indulgence of their passions ; or in
their way to the consummation 'of that deplorable Malady are
04'00 with Weaknews and the Obstruction of certain Eva-
cuations, this reniedy is recommended from ample experience
%tithe best restorative.
• A very important observation may be made in favour of this
celebrated ledicine, that unless its operation was gentle, safe,
efficacious ; it could not have obtained the unexampled
'demand it has acquired ; for, as it has rarely the great advan.
taf, of a persuasive advocate at the ear of the Patient, an no.
tn rig but his conviction of its virtues, by its salutary effects,
can induce perieverance ; and yet reasonable perseverance is
certainly most requisite to enable even the happiest combina.
tinnaof Chemicals and Gainnicals to root out chronic diseases
tuld restore the valetudinarian to health. Much more might be
said in just report of it; for great exgerience has *hewn that
none need desliair, however dangerous-their situation may be,
when so ,noble, safe, and efficacious a remedy is offered for
their relief.

are on Sale, the Public will be sure to ask for it as " Dr. Solo.

of our: commercial (timer, it is not for a ni:tntent to
be doubted, that our conceptions of that reality, from the
medium of fear and uncertainty through which we have viewed
it, have been much beyond What its 'breadth and depth fairly
justify : in other words, we are now truly suffering from
panic; the-effects of which muse removed; the wheels of bisiness
may be expected Speedily to resume their wonted epeed and
amoothnest of revolution. We have been drawn on to these
observations kohl a remark of our - City Correspondent, that
report states it to be the intention of - tbe Bank to discount
bills at tom per cent. Now we .do not much regard the mere
quantum of gain to the merchant, and ednseciuently to the pub-
lic, by the difference between five per and four per cent. It is the
great commercial fact which such a resolution announces,
that we principally regard—namely; that confidence between
merchant and merchant may now be considered as restored ;
that, to keep up the phraseology, we have been just employing,
the bills of the merchant are no longer doubly hazardous. Let
this lawet'ing,of. thepremiurn.be accompanied with liberality in
the amount or the
,accommodation given, which it necessarily will
be, and we do not &span►• of Seeing the distresses of our merchants
and our traders, and our, weavers, passing to the land of forget-
fulness in the train of the election contests, and ourselves and our
contemporaries, iii a few weeki, redUeed to the sad necessity of

ST. STEPHEN'S, COLEMAN-STREET.

The election of a Vicar for this parish commenced this morn-
ing, in consequence of the Court of Chancery having decided that
the one which took place in 1823 was illegal. On the former
occasion the Rev. Josiah Pratt, the candidate opposed to the Rev,
Mr. Fayle, was elected ; but a short time after the friends of the
latter thinking the election illegal, filed a bill in Chancery, pray-
ing that either Mr. Foyle be declared the Vicar, or Mr. Pratt's
election be rendered void. The Chancellor was pleased to corn-
ply with the latter part of the prayer, and out of it has arisen the
present election.
The High Church of England party, and the Aristocracy of the
parish, are in favour of Mr. Fayle ; while the dissenters of every
hue and shade, are straining all their powers to .promote the sue-.
cues of Mr. Pratt. The good-wishes of the tradesmen also are
said to be with the letter ; but they are unwilling to come forward,
fearing to disoblige their employers, and are with their assistence,
instead of participating in the bustle of the election, now enjoying
themselves in the pleasures of a country excursion.
The church in anticipation of the severity of the contest, was
prepared for the occasion ; barriers were placed at the ends of the
side aisles through which the voters are admitted, and at the chan-
cel a hustings was erected, which in solidity would have done
honour to a county election.
Before 9 o'clock the candidates, accompanied by their friends,
made their appearance. The senior Churchwarden, Mr. Smith,
was the presiding officer, and Mr. Pollock attended as Counsel
for Mr. Pratt, and Mr. Nolan for Mr. Fayle, After the Rev.
Gentlemen were put in nomination, the polling proceeded rapidly.
The numbers up to 2 o'clock stood thus
