LON DON ,
WED NES I) A 111.1 RCH 8,, 1820.

Among the Cdrti‘dates for the Representation

of the of London, it must be gratifying to
see .Sir Wrt.Cimi- CURTIS fake his stand. The

tt car by Baronet tvas ct;ived by all good and to
fleeting men tvith the applause which his public
'and private charmer well deserve, and we trust,
that he despises those who nitwit-est ed towards
hire different sentiments. He a(!ell essed the people
with manly spirit and firmness. Mess; s. WOOD and
WArrnm-kN also addressed the Meeting, atm

were not sinning in cowtnendation of their own
conduct, principles, and intenfions,. Messrs.
WILSON and TaoaP spoke with a degree of mo-
dest respect, which indite a vely ditlerent hopres-
sion upon the people. The slim of hands was
in favour of the tour late Menthe's, but the Poll
is the test, and we sincerely hope that the great
issue of it will restore the Worthy Baronet to that
seat which he u ell &serves by his iiregrity, Ids
principles, his at teotion to the honour and interest

of the City, and his info atrachntent to our gio-

riuus Consfilutioh iri Church dud State'.

IVe have given in our Paper this day, a brief,
but fully sufficient account of the Meeting whiCl►
tot,l, place }'e,tetslay at ti►e Free Mototas' ltivern,

for the purpose, of adopting meas.aes to secure
. the I:eturu of. S. C. WHITBREAD, 1.11-q as one of
the Rept esentatives of the County of Middlesex.
The chief Spokesman on the occasion was Sir
FRANCJS RuEDeTT, who, in the course of a long
barangue Upon all the common-place topics su
repeatedly taged by the HUNTS, the-CoBBETTs,
and 'other quoiidarn fttends of the 13. it otter, iu Spa,

fields, Stni!htield, Palace-yard, and other places,
we might Pr! iJaPs say factious Meetings, poured
out yest-etclay a tt.ll portion of a bo.e against Go-
vernment, 'Ministers, the late War, &c. &c.
In the course of his speech he said the ele rice
power wa3 too confined, by which he must evi-
dently Mean to recommend Universal Suffrage, if
not Annual Election. The Bar, net openly de-
clared that he came forward more in opposition
to Mr, MELLISH than to support MI.WHITEREAD,
of whom, he said, he knew nothing. lie re-
marked on the youth of that Gentleman, but said
that he gave him credit for tight principles, and re-
presenting Mr. Matt.ign as the niece tool of Mi-
nisters. The People must be disgusted with this
personal attack on a Gentleman of independent
principles, esiintable private character, long ex-
perience, and a fortune equal to that -of
the young. Gentleman whom the Baronet
thought proper to recommend to the choice of
,the Freeholders, though
,avowedly unacquainted
with him, and therefore most probably whiiily
ignorant of his principles and capacity. Such a
recommendation is. disgraceful to the Baronet,
instating to the Freeholders, and indeed spews a
contempt of public opinion, and a total indiffer-
ence-to his own clkaraeter.. Another of the Party
Speakers at this Met.Ttingtas the Rev. Mr. DRAPER

As we know nothing of this Political Divine, we'shal

not say with the Poet, " ill befdl theme meddling
Plints," but we cannot help regretting that a
Minister of ihe,Cospvl sliouhl thus discegatd his

sacred function, anal, instead of mixiog himself

with Party Meetings. and giving a stimulus to

'?adical Dbetrines, does not rather endeavour

o difluse the truths of our Holy Faith, and to
ustruct his flock in such a manner as may render
hem vit !nous and happy here, and prepare them

for a better world,' where he himself will be called
upon to answer for his conduct on Earth, and
where his political principles seem not to he very

well calculated to recommend lrirn to the God of

Peitce.
