Numbers polled this evening at four o'clock :•""
1423--Moona, 1377--Cosairrr, 516.
Total polled, 1984,
In consequence of the activity ()four Police and
the very jsadicious conduct of our Aligistratest 011
Saturday, and since that period, there has ant
been any more violence or ill usage to any person;
the hustings are as easy of access as any pri"te
house, and hundreds have polled for Moony and
ELLICe who do not approve of them, because thel
+would spew their detestation of COBIVETT; and
not because the conduct of any of the three Car'
dictates is approved, for the general opinion is°
they are all three nearly of one'sentiment,
Mr. Moons is the most violent and abusive !
is reported by COBaETT'S friends that they 1160
evidence sufficient to render the Election void'
and that it is their intention to bring it before tl►C
!louse of Commons at the earliest period possible•

After polling till four o'clock yesterday, it WO
given out that Coispgrr had resigned, partly of
casioned by his not being in the booth all the
day, and from some expressions he had made use
of to his friendly; but this morning we v!erescv
prised at being inforMed that the polling was going
on as usual. Several drums have been through ths
streets to call up the voters, and just at this tiros
M. and 17,:ss party are parading with the knave's
post, a ridiculous wooden figure of a tau (minor
criminals were usually flogged at the cart's-til
through the city, commencing at the place where
the knave's past was fixed) marked COSsErr
the figure was at liberty on account of the house
against which it was originally fastened. being
pulled down, which gave Coßaßrria opponenti
an opportunity (too favourable to be omitted) tor
their diversion, and it being taken from the pilule
at which minor offenders have been usually
flogged by the beadle, was ludicrous enough
it is made of good old oak, and I expect will be
the subject of a mock flagellation before the faro')
concludes.

We expect the whole business to be conclutteil
this evening or to-inorrow. Surely a more wilt,.
ing example cannot be necessary to spew tll
utter impropriety of ANNUAL ELECTIONS or Liai6
versal Suffrage.

Coßearr has not been at the hustings
Saturday.
Having traced the origin and progress of our
Election tumult so near to its close, it may not
be necessary for me (unless sorneihing naateri3l.
occurs) to send above another letter on the sub.
ject. CORBETT i• disappointed, disgraced, anti,
defeated—and for the credit of Coventry, I re-
joice in the circumstance, though I cannot er
prove the outrageous conduct of the Opposition-
His friends say he had niore than 800 vote' in
Coventry, and that if Captain CLose had pus bee'
brought to divert the stream, lie would have been
returned.

Certain it is be never need come here 2g:tit',
for 1 do not think any housekeeper, either public
or private, would receive bim if he were known.

THE Co NSPIRATORS.--The Special Commission
fur the trial. of the Conspirators was issued 04
Monday. The Lord Chief Justices of the•Couß}
of King's Bench and of the Common Pleas, and
other Judges, are included. The Sheriffs were
yesterday engaged in making arrangements for •
summoning the Grand Jury. It is expected that
this Jury will be directed to appear at Flicks t
Clerkenwell, on Monday week, to receies
the charge of one of the Commissioners. The prie
goners, should the bills preferred against them
found, will be entitled to ten days' notice previous
to trial, from the time of their being.furnisbcd
with copies of the indictments and lists of cbg

,wituesses and Jury. A man of the name of Hai'
ward, a journeyman shoemaker, residing in Long°
Alley, Moortields, was yesterday morning awe'
hended upon a warrant charging him with High
Treason. He has been in sonic way connected
with the Conspirators who stand Coonnitted ftpr

Tire Inverness Courier of Thutiday contains
furtber.particulars of. the late riot of the tenantrf '
in Ross-shire.; but adds : " We have heard, and
hope it may be true, that the- rioter's are awakened
to a sense of their misconduct, and are sending
down messengers, expressive of regret for thair
late outrage, and of subniission to the laws which
they offended."
The singular return of four Members front 13.1
shop's Cast, the v,otes for each being equal,
the first business that most be taken notice 01
after Parliament meets and is constituted. The
vote which would have cast the balance, k is said,
was refused by the Returning Officer. A youth,
who was born on the 10th of March, tendered bIY
vote on the 9th, as being 21 years of age no that
day ; be was rejected, as not being of age till
the 10;11.
After the return of the Hon. I. F. CAMPZIEL lot
the Borough of Carmarthen, and at the mot:ne t!
his friends were preparing to chair him, a WY
rushed into the Hall, forcibly took possession of
the chair, and demolished its decoration, then
placed one of their own body in it, sad oarrigl
him in triumph through the town.
