that any body of,men.could place in another.
.Mr. DENISON next presented himself, and was warmly cheered,
lie returned his thanks fisr the:favourable reception with whichr
he was greeted, and begged the meeting to believe that if he tidied
to do so adequately, it was from want of utterance, not want. of
Iceling. Six years ago they bad done him the honour, to intrust.
to his hands that charge which he was then prepared td give hack
to, them without, he trusted, ,having in any degree betrayed or
neglected it. When he first came forward to solicit their votes,
he announced himself as professing Whig principles. ;;,pro.
fcissedthe same principles at this Moment, and by those principles
he would stand or fall. (Applause.) The lion. Gaulle:lnm (Mr.
llriscoe) had said, that he intended for the future to ke(4) a regis-
ter of the votes which:Members gave in the House of Common&
lie hid anticipated the Honourable Gentleman, for he (Mr.
Denison ) had already kept such a register. (Laughter

Mr. PALLmva said he felt himself overwhelmed with the no-
velty and difficulty in which he had been placed. Jf it Were ima-
gined that he had entered upon his present proceeding. from any
de lire to obtrude himself into public life, that was a misapprehen-
s:o:t which he win, WWII to set right. Ue hoped never to forfeit
the esteem which they had di,played to him ; and, whether he
should go at their bidding into Parliament, or to return again to
his retirement, lie trusted that he should still carry it with him.—

Air. SUMNEtt said that there were some InnlaS on which he
wanted to catechise the lion. t
Mr. PAta.measaid he had very little to say on this occasion,
anti even that he should have withheld, but that the lion. 04-n-

sons who were afraid to spet►k out....(Applature).

CITY ELECTION.

This morning the polling was for some time exceedingly slow.
Towards I I o'clock it became brisk. Many who vote for Waith-
man omit Wood, who has given considerable offence by the acti-
vity with which be has pursued plans for improvements, es they
are called, which are likely to occasion a number of inhabitants to
be dislodged from their premises. A coalition is reported to have
taken place on the part of the Lord Mayor, with one of the other
candidates.

At one o'clock, Mr. Charles Calvert came over with a party oi
friends to vote for the candidates of his party.

The English Funds remain in the same dull and uninteresting
state they have been in for the last few days. Three per Cent.
Consols opened at 80f, as the price, and may be quoted at 804 I,
but with hardly any business ; the scarcity of money still con-
tinues, which is one of the chief causer of the depression.
The Foreign Funds are again worse than they were yesterday.
Colombian and Mexican Stock has fallen, since the opening this
morning, full 4 per Cent., and this market, generally, looks very
gloomy.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

StA—lf you consider, with me, that Frost is an ap-
propriate object for displayingthe powers of the SUN,
you will have no objection to.insert the following dia-
logue, which is said to have latelytaken place at So-
therSet 'House. 'The name. of the individual to whom
yoU yesterday alluded, as an object of contest. at a cer-
tain Scientific Society, .was singularly adapted to fur-
nish the punster with an opportunity of indulging his
propensity. " Frost," said one of the learned mem-
berS,. " will certainly fall below zero this evening."
" By no means;" said another, for he will be treated
in. a summary manner." " I agree with you," rejoin-
ed the first, " if the question be decided by the absence
of snow ballS." "It is all jealousy," exclaimed a
third, " which has excited so unfair an opposition."
" Impossible," said a fourth, " his
*powers are not of
an order to excite it ; depend upon it, that Frost will
never set the Thames on fire.' " That may. be very
true," cried a Cynical looking old gentleman in spec-
tacles, who had hitherto taken no part in the conversa-
tion ; " but let me tell you, that if I were called upon
to. personify Frost, I should represent him as a philo-
Sopher, for does he not derive all his sharpness from the
Pole?" These ebullitions of satire were but too pro-
.pbetic of the fate of poior Frost. Like his prototype,
Icarus, he. had imprudently directed his ambitious
flight -in the blaze of the Sun—his wings melted, and
he fell headlong. ' X.

with great success. Hot-ever, 'on Monday, a third candidate
made his appearance in that town—Wyndham Lewis, Esq. late
M.P. for Cardiff, In the course of the evening, Mr. Lewis ad-
dressed the electors from the windows of the Bell-inn, and stated,
that he proposed paying his personal repecta to the electors, It
is, however, very doubtful whether he will go to the poll. A
numerous deputation waited on Sir It Wigram, Baronet, on the
9th, offering their support in favour of his own sons. Sir R.

were with grout difficulty restrained from drawing bins into the
town ; hilt the wItol: mass behaved in the most orderly manner,
and Was one of tin Hurt imposing spectacles ever witnessed in this
neighbourhood, arel me,l have been highly gratifying to Mr. Ma
berly. Mr. Mabeily's carriage being drawn into the middle of
the square, he WA% assisted to the limit of the vehicle, whence be
addressed the largest assembly ever witnessed in this toali : in
the course tit. 'which is observed, that he had felt extremely mor-
tifictl that he alandil have the gout at this particular period,which
4riM prevented' him from paying his personal respects to every in-
oividual in the town a day or tot, sooner; and he believed that
his feeling. ors this point had, in a greet measure, retarded his re-
covery, Ile then solicited their support on the next day, wished
them a good night, and retired to the Thistle Inn, from it window
of which Thomas i.intnll, Esq. addressed the assembled host, in

GREAT HARLOW.

The spirit of the electors of this borough, which has lain 'dor-
mant for above 20 years, lies at length been roused. An offer was
made of producing a candidate on Thursday se'nnight ; that cans
dilate, James Morrison, Esq. entered the town at four o'clock on
Monday afternoon lust, amid the most rapturous applause ever
witnessed in that or perhaps any other town. Mr. Morrison is
the son-in-law and successor of Mr. Todd, of Fore•street ; his
character is most unexceptionable; he is the architect of his own
immense fortune, and his disposition to benefit the. town and the
public is on a par with his extensive means. A letter from Mar-
low states, that 'Owen Williams, Esq. and James Morrison, Esq.
havo been returned to Parliament for the•borough of Marlow;

at eight on Saturday morning, but
Sir Henry, by his counsel (Mr. Jones) protested against the in-
terference of the military, as being contrary to law, and declared
that he durst not poll another men, as he considered their lives and
those of their friends, were in jeopardy, the military being stationed
within two miles of time borough, ready to come in at a moment's
warning. There were upwards of sixty voters, who did.not vote,
all of which were for Sir Henry, who intends to protest, in the
House of Commons, against the return .or Mr. Wrightson and Sir

This was an action brought to recover a sum of 12,000/,
the amount of certain bills of exchange, which had been drawn
on the defendants by their agents. The ease Was tried before the
Lord Chief Justice, in London, at the Sitting* after last Term,
when the plaintiff had verdict ; but leave was given to
the. defendants to move,the Court to set aside the verdict,.
and to enter a nonsuit. The facts of the case were put
in the shape of a special case, and thus brought before
the Court; the chief, point to be decided was, whether the
answer given by one of the defendants, when it was intimated
to him that the bills were diabonoured, amounted in law to an
acceptance or not. The principal facts of the ease were
these. A Mr. MOrnev was employed as the agent of the
defendants, to tranaact business for them at .111exico ; and a
person named Exter was engaged by Morney as his sub-
agent, to lOok to the " exploitation" of certain mines, be-
longing to the defindants, situate near MeXico. Exter, finding
supplies necessary for the mines, drew the bills in qtfestion,
which he made payable by the defendants. Before those bills
reached the defendant's hands, and had become due, they sold
their property in the mines to the United Mexican Mining Com-
pany. As it might have been, they siippoted, prejndicial to their
(the defendants') credit, that their agent's bills should be paid
by any other persobs than thoinSelves,:they received the amount of
the bills from the purchasers of the mines. Afterwards the bills
were presented, dinhonouredi and noted. The' agent
then desired by the plaintiff, as the bolder of the bills, to apply to
one of the partners of the defenchoits' firm concerning the bills.
The partner to whom Morney applied Said immediately, " what,
are they not paid? they ought to be, for we have received the
money." Subsequently, however, payment was refused by the
defendants, and out of that refusal this action arose. The great
question at issue was, whether the words above-mentioned, ut-
tered by one of the defendants, amounted in law to an acceptance,
such as hound the defendants to pay.
The Court, after hearing the arguments of Counsel, at some
length, expressed its opinion, that in all law, justice, and equity,
the words in question, under the circumstances of the case,
amounted to an acceptance, and bound the defendant*. The rule
to enter a nonsuit should therefore he (16churged.—Rule dis-

CARLISLE,

SATURDAY, 3 P. A terrible disturbance has just taken place
in the Town hall. Mr. Wm. Brougham, breither to H. Brougham,
Esq. M.P. rose, and in rti Most energetic Ipvich, declared that Sir P.
Musgrave was forced on the freemen at the point of the hayouct ;
that at that moment cavalry were stationed under arms within
300 yards of the city. When Nfr. B. made this announcement,
the uproar was tremendous ; the Mayor AVM,' with the greatest
difficulty, protected front the mob. Sir J. Graham insisted on
his signing an order for the military to- retire •1- miles from the
city, with which he

The influx of members of the University is already consider-

practice has hem for a member to giverlds vote by writing his
name, and that of the gentleman for isliont he intended voting,
on a slip of paper, and putting the same into one or other of the
boxes placed for the purpose on •the table by which the Vice.
Chancellor and the. Proctor* sit as scrotimxtra of the votes. Oh-
jections have been made to this mode of election, particularly, it
is said, by Dr. French, the Master of Jesus Collegei the subject'
has been considered by the Vice-Chancellor, who detwmined
adopting the pull-book instead, and to proceed as is done at alt

LIVERPOOL.

The following speech was delivered by the Right Hon. William
Huskisson, in the Exchange News-room, on his arrival iu Liver-
pool, on Saturday last :
" GENTLEMZN ANDBROTHER FREEMEN—Fur this warm and
most cordial reception, which I can only look on as an additional
proof of that generous kindness which I have always experienced at
your hands, allow me to return you my grateful and sincere thanks.
My endeavour, as one of your late Representatives, has always
been to consult the interests, and to promote the prosperity, of this
great community. If I have been guilty of error (and I under-
stand there are some among the Freemen of this town who think
I have erred), for those errors I must intreat your indulgence.
But, until I explain the principles on which I have been guided
in the measures to which those individuals object, 1 trust, that
from the British feeling which actuates the Freemen of Liverpool
—a feeling of justice to a party unheard---I shall receive
credit for having -endeavoured to do any duty. If those
who are under misconception - respecting the measures which
I have advocated, and which they deem prejudicial to
their interests, will come to the hustings on Monday morn-
ing, to hear my explanation of the views by which I have
been actuated, they will, I trust, no longer entertain that jealousy,
or labouriuwier that misapprehension in respect to my conduct,
which, oaf the occasion in question, I am sorry to understand, are
now entertained in some quarters. 'ln tendering to you, Gentle-
men, the renewal of my services I should be sorry, whether I
continue your representative, or that your confidence he transfer-
red to some other Candidate, to remain under any misconception;
and I therefore do claim (and it is the only favour I now ask), an
opportunity of explaining what my conduct hue been, and of show-
, ing to those who object to it, . that I have endeavoured to be their
friend, and if they will heir me, I do not despair of proving to
them that lamso in fact. Gentlemen, fatigued as I am, after
so long a journey, so rapidly performed, I trust you will excuse
me from saying more than that once more I beg of you to accept
any belt acknowledgments for the flattering reception which I
have lilt with from $4311 dll on any arrival at Liverpool."

DAVID BALFOUR.

The case of Balfour has excited great attention at Dundee.
He seems, from the beginning, to have made up his mind to the
fate which awaited him. He has all along declared that he was,
even to the last moment of her life, prepared to forgive his wife,
had she shoWn any wish to give up with her other associates, and
to live with him ; but her indifference and contempt were what
he could not hear—although he was ready at the moment in
which he had grasped the fatal knife to have taken her to his
arms. lie said it was his intention to speak to the assembled
multitude from the scaffold, confessing his crime and the justness
of his sentence. On Wednesday he parted with most of his ordi-
nary netpinintnnces, and only wished a few particular persons ni
he admitted to him. Ott being asked if lie regretted the eommia-
mission of the crime for which he was about to stiffer, lie replied,
certainly ; what could be thought of him if he did not. He passed
the night in a very calm and tranquil manner. When be saw the
executioner, he said, " Come forward, don't be afraid ; you have
no reason." From the Guildhall lie proceeded to the scaffold, where
he bowed most respectfully to the multitude. Feeling somewhat
weak, he requested the Bev. Mr. Macalister to give out a hymn
he had previously eelected, Which was sung, many of thnae
in the hall and on the street joining in it. The unfortunate maa.
joined in the singing of the byinn with a clear and audible voice,
and with apparent fervour. He then addressed the faultittide.
One of the gentlemen, Idiom he particularly requested to be with
observed, that he hid not spoken oldie justice of his sentence
as he proposed. He was instantly aware of it, and turning round;
11 Raid, " My friends, I acknowledge that my sentence is jnst—that
it is a righteous sentence—that it is proper I 'should die, for I
have sinned against God and man, and have justly forfeited my
life. Had I been in the Judges' place, as lam now on the scaf-
fold, I must have pronounced the very same sentence on myself."
While the executioner was adjusting the fatal noose, he resigned
himself to the operation with' singular calmness and compliance;
and when the cap was drawn over his features, he was guided
forward to the drop without evincing the smallest hesitation. He
stood for a short time seemingly.engeged in prayer, before he
gave the signl when the drop fell. His sufferinge were seem-
ingly of shorat, duration, es he was comparatively slightly con-
vulsed. He was thrown off at a quarter before three o'clock,-
and, after hanging fifty minutes, his body was drawn into the
Guildhall.—Dundee Courier. • , .

[MORNING lIERALD.]

If the Eleefoitt of the 'United Kingdom will not be to base as
they haw kkik en for the last fifty year*, they have an opportunity
far tittviding that the rext Parliament shall be at least a stormy
one. We would have the elettole go to the poll as jurymen
enter a jury box—that is, •neither to eat or to drink, or if they
will be so base as to do both at the candidates expense, let them
put their hands into the poOtetti of the eitudifiates es deeply et
potaible, in order to thediatribution of the money of the rich
among the poor. Let the electote promote this good if they will
promote *Mother. Wernhould any to the electors, spare not the
candidates, for if you sutra thesis to bribe you, depend upon it
that, when in Pailiatneut, they will seek bribes from the Mini.
eters, both in the. Government Offices, the Army, the Navy, 4wl
the Church, and therelete you eesv as well get rum:khan) such
?nth iu Olen to diatrihution among those who want it as little.
Wa Svdtl, however, .that the plectorkweut to therpoil ax jurymen
Vnto a jury-box—that ia, to have a pride beyond that of ac-
Vepting a bribe, either in money, eating, or thinking ; and, in all
rates, we would have them to act their faces against thostrwho, in
the last llouse of Commons, accepted place or pension, or who
had any thing to' tin with the swindling achemes. We would
hare all 'such candidates returned only by those who vote for
what are called rotten boroughs. We hope that from one end ol
the country to the other Omit; will be a stubborn spirit shown on
the part of electors in favour of men professing independent prin.
ciplet; and who have not yet been bought.

't HE ARMY.

The inspection of depots of Regiments on foreign service in
Plymouth garrison is daily taking place by Major• General Sir
John Cameron, who is just returned, after leave of absence,
Colonel Vinicombe, R.M., in the interval having taken the
command.

Sir James Cockburn, Barrack-Master and Paymaster-General
of the Royal Marines, is daily expected at Plymouth, and report
states, that the privilege lately given- to the army, with relation
to brevet rank selling out, will be extended, according to his
Majesty's particular wishes, to the Royal Artillery and Royal
Marine,.

The llth (or North Devon Infantry) has lately marched into
Waterford, in forced marches, from Tralee, intended as the first
reinforcement from Ireland, in case the disturbances in and round
Manchester had continued.

ROCI,IESTI,;II, Juil2.

The gteater part .of the day has been occupied in haranguing in
the Town Hall. Some slight skirmishing, as usual, between the
independents. Generally, however, a. better feeling has shown it-
self than on hwiner occasions of this kind. A few dropping shots
have. occurred In the shape of hand-bills, which have failed in
bringing on angry or personal . Thepurple party are
unassailed, and secure, the contest existing solely between the late
Member, Mr. Bernal, and the party of the new candidate, Major-
General-Armstrong. Five o'clock---The poll has just closed—
The Hon. Mr. Dundass - - 54
Mr. Bernal

• Major-General Armstrong. - - 14
The General's party appear playing a ruse, and on leaving the
Hall, confidently assured their antagonists of a strong reserve at
command. It is hard to form any definite opinion ; but the Ge-
neral's prospects are fair, and any thing hut hopeless. The town
is a moving scene.—gay beyond description—decent demeanour—
many ribands, and sweet pretty candidates, who are sure of com-
manding the poll, although in these greasy moments they look
like any thing than polar inhabitants.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Yesterday a fashionably dressed young man was charged by an
elderly saleswoman of Covent-garden market, with au assault,
under the following circumstances ;
She stated that, at five o'clock this morning, she was coming to-
wards Covent-garden, from Newport-market, when .the defendant
carne behind her, and putting Ids hands upon her shoulders, he
jumped upon her back ; and not content with the chastisement he
received, while thus " horsed," from her daughter-in-law, and her
own advice on the subject, he in a few minutes after repeated the at-
tack, but upon the daughter-in-law. This he was also forgiven ;
but he again came with a run and a jump on to the hack of the old
lady► and not being able to stand the second shock, she fell and hurt
herself much, she said.
The defendant said it was merely a frolic—all chance and acci-
dent. All parties being willing to make it up, they retired, and the
young man paid for his frolic with taco sovereigns.
