would submit to dictation. Sir F. Burdett had,
naortnnarely, come forward on _i his occasion with
a mill-stone round his neck., toot this alone had
endangered his election. Ile had resisted every
attempt, since he toad. fanned one of the great body
of electors, to force a candidate upon them ; and
it was ill the 9nllle spirit that he :tow recommended
to their choice Sir Samuel Romilly and Sir F.

reform,

Mr. G. JosPes addressed the crowd at consi-
derable length, amidst the greatest confusion and
disapprobation. He having entered on a pro-
fessional subject, he was reproved by the crowd
for a want -of delieuCy. A Gentleman behind him
touched 4htly on the leg with a small stick
to obtain his attention, attire same time raping

Mr. HUNT—" You did strike him. Touch

The Gentleman iinntediately touched Jones as
he I'M done before. " There, Mr. Hunt, I have
to-tidied hini again. Now -what' will you do ?"
Mr. HUNT, after a pause which caused much
laughter, said—" You let him alone."
The Genileman replied;—": I shall not let him
alone b.r you.".
Mr. 1-11n4T—" Jones, be says he won't let you
alone."--(At laugh.) - • ,
Mr. JoNEs, whO had not felt the blows which
had called forth Mr.- hunt's rerti•ittment, was tour
hwily engaged With other persons to hear • what
passed in consequence, and 'did not attend to the
crying appeal of his high-spirited employer. He
was at that liniment hiatning the constables for
not taking np a Gentleman near him, who upon
Hearin;; this, immediately desired Mr. Jones to
fireter a .charge against him, as he wished him to

and restunii,g his speech,- endeavnuieti to relieve
Mr Flunt's:•characrertrorts theohloquy which at-
tached to him from his conduct at Motley's.

story SO tell as it might be told, and entered into

Mr. Morley to offer to fight him, and which in-
duced hint to refuse the challenge. His speech,,
though frequently interrtepted by sarcasms, was
rewarded with shouts of hearty laughter.
About scree o'cloCk the bu,iness dosed for the
evening. Hunt mounted his hor.e. and proceeded,
surrounded by a groupe of " Uni%ersal Suffrage
Boys," attired iu the uniform of Falstaff's ragged
reginkent, to%vards his 1(;(11iings in Nortolk,street.

forth a 'volky of abuse and ictirrtlity against the
individuals connected with those ['riots, 'which
was received by worthy cumpanions with loud
cheers. He then went Ott to his lodgings.
