IRISH GRAND JURY ASSESSMENTS,

Mr. SHAW moved, that there be laid on the
table the Mernotial of the Citizens of'Dublin, re-
Wive- to Oland Jury Assessments ; and also a
Letter, and other Documents concerning a new
Gaol.

Mr. LUSHINGTON asked' if the Honourable Gen.
tl email had communicated his intention of m"
irlg for these Documents to the Secretary for Ire,

idf,il ?

r. SHAw said he had ►mentioned it to Mr. Grant,
and he thought there could be no possible ob.

jection.
Mt. fieNzfsr took this opportunity of directing
the attention of the House to the fact, that there
was no regular clergyman appointed to attend the
gaol of Dublin. He was told, and he believed
it to be true, that legal proceedings had taken
place in Dec. last to compel the Grand Jury to
appoint one; but as late as the 25th of last month,
he knew that none had been appointed. They at
present trusted solely to any clergyman that might
be disposed to volunteer his set vices. They had
first selected one who• was disqualified by his own
religion. The next two who had been appointed
successively, resided about 50 wiles from Dublin.
One of them was a clergyman in Limerick, and
this mars. was to officiate in the gaol of Dublin !
Then a fourth had been chosen—a Mall who had
been cast by accident on the Coast of Ireland, hay-
ing
been shipwreeked on his voyage either to or.
trom America, anal whose total ignorance of the
Irish language disqualified hint for the office. Ile
could not refrain from saying, that' this 'was
highly discreditable to the municipal authorities
of Ilse place.
Mr. Susw replied, that he had understood
that souse dispute had existed between she Grand
Jury and the Magistrates, respecting the Chap-
iain but the Sheriff had now made
an appointment which put an end to the incon-
venience.

,The [notion was agreed to.

WorfON-BASSET'ELECTION.

Sir JOHN t`TEWART brought up a report of the
Committee, which stated that Ann Hall, who had
bi'en (uttered into custody for not having attended
the Committee, had been prevented from giving
due attendance by infirmity and old age, she being
SG years old. The Hon. Baronet next moved,
that Ann Hall be discharged, without payment of
fens.--Ordered.;
LusHIDIGTON moved, that the House re-
solve itself, to-morrow, into a Committee on the
Assessed Taxes Act.—Ordered.
Sir J. STEwART made several observations on

the inconvenience of an accusation hanging long
over the head of the Learned Judge 11aclellatt.
and wished to second a motion by the Hun. Gent.
(or accderatintz the ►nquiry.

Mr. MARTIN was understood to express his
willingoess to wove for au earlier day.
'the SPEAKER I cnialitcd, that the notice was

fixed for a certain day: it might be postponed,
but it could not be anticipated.
Mr Flustg r,.se to move for certain Returns
respecting the Army in India.

TIM CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that
as his Noble Friend Was not in the House, it
would be more convenient to give notice of his
motion.

Mr. Hums replied, that be had written on the
subject to the Noble Secretary at War, who had
answered, that he might move when he pleased.
The Hon. Gentleman then moved for a Return of
the n►►rnber of Officers who had entered the Army
in India, from the 25th January, 1316, to 25th
January, 1819 ; distinguishing those who had
been educated at the Royal Military College, and
those who had obtained their rank by purchase;
also the number of Half-pay Officers during the
same petlod.—Ordered.

The House Hdjourucd at a quarter before Six

WESTMINSTER ELECTION.

L.lsr DAY.

The proceedings of yesterday, both before and
after the termination of the polling, excited more
interest than on any former day in the election ;
and as they ended in no slight riot and confusion,
we have given an account of them in another part
_ot our Paper. _ _ _

At three o'clock the Poll finally closed, and
soon alter the following were declared to he the
numbers :
For the Finn. G. Lamb
John Cain iliihhonse, Esq.
.3,8G1
Major Cartwright

Alajority for Mr. Lamb
The HIGH BAILIFF' then came to the front of
the hustings, and declared that the Honourable
GEORGE LAMB Was duly elected by the Citizens
of Westminster to represent them in the present
Parliament.
Mr. LAMB came forward amidst much confu-
sion. He thAnked the Electors' for the high ho-
nour they bad done him in placing him at the
head of the poll, and he sincerely trusted. his
conduct would justify them in the choke they had
made. To at tend to their interests, and do every.
thing in his power to promote the prosperity and
happiness of the Citizens of Westminster, would
be his earnest study. He would not detain them
longer, as he said it was impossible to be heard,
but he could assure them that he would endea-
vour to discharge the trust they had 'committed to
him in such a manner as he hoped would give
them satisfaction, for in doing so he would be
acting in a manner most gratifying to his own
feelings.---(Cheers and hisses.)
Mr. HoaxousE said, he had now come forward
to bid them farewell. They had lost the election,
but he trusted they bad not lost their honour.—
He felt more consoled for having sustained such a
defeat, than his opponents could know of joy for
having achieved such a victory. The combination
of almost all the Aristocracy of Great Britain
against them had proved too strong for' the people
of Westminster, and the numbers of those who
had been frightened or deluded exceeded those of
the persons who, understanding their duty, had
hail the courage to perform it. He did not mean to
say who swelled the poll of Mr. Lamb had
no thatactediiconscientiously ; what he meant to say
Was, that threats and delusions were the means
which 'had been resorted to in order to seciirellid
triumph of the coalition. lie then at some length
contended, that the Reformers had, after all, most

reason to be satisfied with what had -taken place.
Though their adversaries enjoyed the n►omentary
triumph, to the Reformers belonged the true
glory and the real profit of the Election. They
had gained much, for it -had been proved, by this
contest, that there were in Westminster nearly
4000 friends to Radical Reform, who, regardless
of their selfish interests, had dared even to the last
to come forward to oppose a coalition noparal-
leled in its nature, even in the annals of the

Whigs. -The election fhad moreover shown the
people, that they had nothing to expect from :he
Whigs as a party, but must depend upon themselves
tor the accomplishment of the object of their
wishes—a Reform in the .House of Commons.—

Besides these advantages they might boast of a
third ;—the Reformers had shaken off those who
would disgrace any cause, and who, pursued by
merited scorn, were—.

" Coached, carted, trod upon, now loose, now fast,
And carried off iu some Whig's tail at last."
He wished, the %Whigs joy of their new friends,
while he congratul4ted the people of \Westminster
on getting rid of them. lie was much gratified
by the support he had received from so numerous,
a body of respectable men. He had known
from the first what he had to expect from the
course he had taken, which had subjected film,
not not only to a political but to a social proscrip-
tion. He, however, regretted not what lie had

done, and, like the girl in Dean Swift, if it were
-possible, he would do it again. He now hid
them farewell, to retire; into the ranks of pri.
vate life from which they had called him. Wile-
tiler he should ever again appear in the van of
the battle, depended upon them ; but they might
rest assured, that when their liberties were
called in question, he would never be far in the
rca r.

Sir FRANCI3 BURDETT next addressed the crowd,
and said he was highly delighted to see that such
an enlightened body of Electors had come for-
ward, as they had done, in behalf of Mr. Hob-
house. It was the more pleasing to him, because
it was the triumph of principle and the triumph
of their great cause. lie was not disheartened
at their defeat, but quite the reverse, when he
recollected the strange and unnatural coalition
which had been formed between the Whigs and
Tories ; and he never saw the 'cause more likely
to prosper than it was at present. His friend,
Mr. Hobbouse, had taken farewell of them, but
it was possible that this would not be a long fare-
well, as that Gentleman would akVays be found
at his post, and would cheerfully come forward
on a future occasion. It was not possible that
such a coalition would ever take place again under
similar circumstances, but he could not help re-
gretting that- many of their friends had fallen off
Mr. Wishart had always been a Whig, and of
course had acted consistently, both in ;his and the
previous Election ; bat he felt deep regret in
saying, that Mr. Sturch had been guilty of a dere-

fiction of principle, and had not come forward
promptly as he ought to have done in the Cal 4
It would be invidious to name 'others, all 1111
begged leave therefore to decline naming,'
more. If, however,t heir adversaries had tiitimplie7i
and secured the Wh4,7 Candidate a seat, he
confident that that party bad lost the uaffec",;;;o
and good-will of the people of Eogla"d• at
Electors bad the satisfaction of knowing tni",
their good intentions and principles had not fle7a
injured, but quite the reverse. They had &Wit
not indeed a triumph of numbers, butt a triaalP
of principle; and he would be the last wis
the world to resign that tor.ail the paltry
of a contested Election. lie would now take d
leave of them,:feeling that the connexion betweer
theta was stronger than ever. Let them Pera";
vere in their course, the cause of freedom '"
purity of Election, and though now tot'a 61::1
went the prospect was clouded, they would- •
it become more brilliant than ever. Their caulj
was the cause of the people, and it moat an
would finally ttiumph.— (Loud cheers). of
It is due to Mr. Lee, the High Constable
Westminster, to say that be,, and the Perg°04
under his orders, exerted themselves throng t 4
the Election to preserve•good order, and succeoe
as far as could be expected upon such au 0011'
sion. .g 1
The lion. Baronet then withdrew along We,
