o'Clok in the Evening,..-;—We hate this moment
received, by Eitpresss intelligence of the election
for Northumberland at A limit:lt. Ltet Ween the
hours of ten and eleven this morning, the High
Sheriff, J.:Oat:mum, Esq., appeared on the hust-
ings, and read the ViTit for proceeding to the
election of a Knight of the Shires in the room of
the late CHARLES JOHN BRA NDLINU, EST de-
tedsed. Jotter Cr.EORETr; Esq. of Harhott le
Castles in a neat speech, nominated the Hon.:
Ift.:l4llY THOMAS LI DUEL!, of Esslingtotts as a fit,
and proper person to represent the silt! county of
Northumberland in Parliament ; in which he was
seconded by WILLIAM Cr..t.nnE, Esq.; of Belford
and Wailsehda Sir CttAnt.cs Lon A INES of Kirk.;
harle, Bert., ptit in nomination MATTHEW BELL,
Esq., of ‘Vonisington, and Wes seconded by It:
A z;r.oooty, Esq., of Nunwick. The respective
Candidates then severally addressed the as.:
senibled freeholders, who attended in great nom=
hers. Mr. LinDELL's speed's tie understands
was deservedly admired for its relevancy to the
business of the day, and for the independent tone
it breathed throughout. He was loudly cheered
in different places as he went along: Mr. BELL'
nisi), we understands delivered himself in perti-
nent terms, and met with applause. Upon a skew
of hands, the number was decidedly in favour of
the Hon. Mr. LIDDELL, which being so declared
by the High Sheriffs MATTHEW BELL, Esq. de-
manded a polls which was proceeded in accord-:
ingly. The fretholderss we understand, were'
further addressed, in speeches of considerable
lengths by T. W. BrAtmoNt, Esq., the actual
Member for Northumberland, and Sir CnAtmuit
M. L. Motions Bart, of Delsay Castle, as well
as my Lord Howlett. All these honourable
Gentlemen, it would seem, by their ileclarationsi
are determined to come forward for the County .at
the nest General Elections as well as the two
present Candidates, so that no doubt can be en-
tertained but there will be very sharp work hi
and by. We regret exceedingly that we are li.:
tinted to a mere outline of these highly interest-
ing. proceedings at Alnwick, ()Whig to the almost
immedinte.departure of the mail. With regard to
the present contest, the general opinion certainly
Is, that the HEIR of RATENSWORIIII will be tri•
umphant. • For reasons that hate already beets
stated in THE SUN, he must be admitted to be
justly entitled to the honour of victory.

bia by a week's residence. Ile would have been much better
satisfied had he had an opportunity of making these statements
in the presence of the Right Honourable the President of the
Board of Trade, but even in his absence he felthimself bound
to make them. ~
Sir ROBERT H. INGLIS rose not to follow the Ilen.Gen-
tleman (the Member for Grampound) in his observations on the
commercial points on the Colombian Treaty, which alone, as:he
was willing to admit, were formally and technically before the
House, and as little to object to that treaty :generally, but to
take this opportunity of calling to the attention of the House
one article in it which to hint appeared to involve interests far
higher than, those of any commerce, and to commit the chit-
reeler of the country and the cause of religion. The article
to which he referred was the 12th, which stipulates that the
Colombians, reeitient in England, shall be entitled to ex-
ercise their worship in public and in private with most full
and ample toleration ; while it stipulates that the English,
resident in Colombia, shall be permitted to exercise their
religion In their own houses only. In reference to the first
point, he, as an Englishman, felt almost degraded that at
this day toleration should be granted to a Colombian arriving
here ; as if it were a new boon ; as if it were in the power lir
the negociators to give it, or to withhold it ; as it' it were not
almost a chemical ingredient in the air of England. But Mint
is the reciprocal advantage obtained by England ? The reci-
procity, as was said In the American war, Is all on one side t
the English residents in Colombia are permitted to worship
God in their own houses. Every other article in the Treaty
gives some benefit to one party, and some corresponding be-
nefit to the other.
" Grove nods at grove, each alley has its brother."
But here there is a most lame and impotent conclusion ; the
Colombian is to enjoy, as be ought, the fullest and freest
excx-
else of his religion here, at free as any other Roman Catholic ;
the Englishman is to have the free exercise of his religion in
hieownimuse. The truth is, that the Colombian Government,
has mocked me as the English negociators mocked them. Both
have granted what they could not withhold. It it he said that
there was a law in Colombia preventing any assemblage in
private houses for religious purposes, and therefore that some,
thing was gained as to that point by this Treaty, he denied the
fact ; because by the Constitution of that State, there is no pro-
vision made for the exclusion of any one religion. If' it be
said that though there is no such law, yet that in practice Eng-
lish merchants have been disturbed in assembling at each
other's houses, he denied the fact as to Colombia, and doubted
it as to any Wirer part of Spanish America. So much for what
hits been done; tot to what might have been done, he would con-
sider first the circumstances of the state of Colombia itself, and
then the precedent of Buenos Ayres. There were many cir-
cumstances of the state of Colombia peculiarly favourable as it
appeared to the admission of religions toleration. In the first
place there was the silence of the Constitution as to any exclu-
sive religion in the State ; in the next, there was the personal.'
character of the great man who founded and who defends that
Constitutions; who, high as he is in talents and servicee end Ms,
interested virtue, is not less high in the estimation of Europe
and America for his liberal and enlightened support of every
good object. lie begun his career by the abolition of slavery ;
and set the example by the emancipation of his own slaves ; lie
has now been encouraging univeral education. In the third
place, the character of those who administer the flovernment
an his absence, is equally favourable to liberal views. The
House will recollect that this Treaty is signed at Bogota on the
111th of last April ; one of the Plenipotentiaries being Don
Pedro °eel, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. On
the 4th of that same April, there was satisfaction in the same
city, a Bible Society, under the Presidency of the same Secre-
tory of State. The meeting was very numerously attended ;
and, though the object was opposed by two very respectable
Ecclesiastics, their opposition was overcome, anti the Society
was finally established. It is a minor fact, but tint Intim.'
portatit, as showing the state of the public mind anti public
opinion, that the Secretary of the new Society had been Se-
cretary to the Inquisition, snd the place of the meetiv of
the Society is the former Hell of the Inquisition. This 18 at
least proof that the public mind WAS more prepored for libe-
rality than might have been expected from the results of, this
treaty. lie did not blame the talents, the firmness, the zeal of'
the Plenipotentiaries; but he thought that he had said enough to
prove that something was wanting somewhere to have led to ,hi 3
result. Ile was sure that it was not owing to any defect in the
instructions of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, whose
large and enlightened policy had been so often and nllllOOBO
unanitnouely approved in this House. But this was tot :lie
had :teen yesterday a Bogota newspaper, expressiusuthetfeel.
Inge which the treaty ,of Lngland with Buenos Ayes
cited in Colombia:--they regretted, referring to the 'Aeoletation
secured by that Treaty, that another State had raYislic4
them the glory of taking precedence in religiooceohnsatiorei,
they trust, however, that the example of a State eviehettlrelOorte
religion, language, laws, and prejudices with dud Otti, will be
followed by thenky an example winch roves to tint unieerlatitat
the people of Buenos Ayres, after having gabled eleeirfeeederti

of a State Paper, or of an Act of Congress, it is merely the
language of' a newspaper, but a newspaper at Bogota, as at
London, must, tiebe eucceeetultspeak the languegetondrepre-
lent the feelinge of a great body of people. When, therefore,
• he considered these favourable indications—the absence from the
Comitieutionef. Colombia of tiny exclusion of toleration ; the
penional character of Bolivar, in favour of all liberality.; the
personal character of some of those who administer the govern-
ment in his absence, and the sympathy of' the people of Colombia
with that liberality, as proved :by the paesage,.quoted, it is, (life
licult not te,eee that it printa facie core ie established to justify
considerable surprise at the result of this Treaty. This was
more remarkable when the precedent of Buenos Ayres was re.
meinbered. ~There he found iii die TroatyiOth that. Power the
mot ample Toleratioe established, If, therefore, the same
nipotentiarles who had been successful in Buenos Ayres had
been employed in Bowel', the same results might perhaps have
been obtained. He r.un; thatitOJOStruetion could have been

were not obtained, Buteenotigh bad been here said to shew
how, le balence- in Colotthia was wavering, and though ho
would not have wished the Right Hon. Gentleman to have
thrown his sword into it, lie should have thought that the ba.
lances aught have been turned by his perk. The time at which
this failureetook place adds to the regret which it occasions. It
Was just at the tune Whon4ho Pone,:whoseiinfluence in the

Who have contended that the Church of Rome has changed,

the part pf Colombia to grant Tolentuoin—a COlnteslloll which
miht appear front an uniny eircumettinces Si, have been attain-

he would b/tYp been content to read the Treaty in silent mord-
fication ; but it we 3 tint merely the duty of the House to consi-
der what had been done, and what,rnight have been done, but
eleo what remained to be done. There were still four States to

have been afforded by him why this point had not been praised

Said, the Government might have been even disposed to make

low that the populace might not have been still averse to so vio-
lent an exteneion.of religious privileges.: It• was a matter of
congratulation to all :who bad known any thing of the state of'
affairs antecedently in dome countries to find that even so much
had been gained. Ile could not sit down without remarking,
that it was rather singular the Horn Memlierirwelitzru spokeplinrsitt
