CITY OF LONDON.
FIFTH DAY—FRIDAY, OCT. 9.
At the close of the poll this day the numbers were:
taw - - - 4052 Atkins . - 2911
owe . - - 3613 Waithman - 1979
sow . - .. 3°31 Wood - - 1836
Mr. Alderman Comte returned thanks, and ex-
pressed a hope that by the exertion of his friends he
Mild be continued in the same honourable situation
tie Dow held on the poll.
Sir WILLIAM CURTIS, Sir JAMES SHAW, and Mr.
Alderman ATKINS, after significantly pointing to the
A retired.
Mr. WAITHMAN then stepped forward, and was
jeitived with loud acclamations. Whenever he at-
empted to address the crowd assembled in front of
thehastings, however, a confused murmur was raised,
which for some time completely drowned all his
amts. He persevered, nevertheless, in his determi-
nation to be heard, and informed the assembly that
be iral in no hurry, and would wait till they were
gat. He perceived that persons had been placed
there to prevent him from being heard ; but he as-
.wed them, that no interruption should intimidate
him from persevering till he had stated all that he
lad to say The longer the interruption, the longer
skald be his speech. TLis attempt to prevent him
ham being heard, indeed, made him sensible of the
importance of his addressing them, as it shewed that
his adversaries were afraid of the effect which he 1

light produce. This gave hien a higher idea than
head yet yentured to entertain of himself p,—for it
was a convicting proof that his adversaries dreaded
his harangues. The three worthy Aldermen who
Indian presented themselves, had made use of an
expressirekind of dumb eloquence, pointing to the
poll, as if the state of it was highly triumphant to.
Clem, He, on the other hand, was of opinion, that
'taus highly triumphant to the • Independent Livery
ithe City of London. He was an humble indivi-
dual, unsupported by any powerful interest, who
&sod forth asking the suffrages of the Livery purely
on independent grounds. Was it not .then a tri-
traphant thing, that in the midst of the corruption
of this great city—against the influence of the India.
'Home—of the Bank—of the South Sea liouse—'-of
the Post .01fice—of the Custom House—of the Ex-
Ore—and all the other powerful interests to which
public corruption sad an immense taxation give
birth.--there were to be found so large a number
as 1900 Independent Liverymen 1 It was to be
observed, that there was such a narked difference
of opinion bttween him and the three candidates next
immediately above him on the poll, that any electors
who polled both for'him and for them, must hive
polled for the one from principle and for the other 1
from interest or compulsion. It was against him, as
he had already said, that all the interest had been ex-
erted; the votes which he had obtained, therefore,
must have been given from principle ; and if his op-
ponents were to deduct from their poll, all such votes
as were in this situation of voting for him from grin-
, ciple, and for them influence, he should be glad to
know where would then be their present apparent
majorities I Had the election been by ballot, he felt
confident that the majority in his favour would have
been as three to one. There were still unpolled a
number of Liverymen more than adequate, even now,
Innen the scale. He (Mr'. Waitfirnan) should do
his duty by keeping the poll open to the last ; it re-
tu
ned for the Livery to do theirs. If they did so,
even at this aUvancevi state of the election, enter-
. Alined
no
fears
ae to the result. • ,
jfir. Alderman WCOD thought his friend, Mr.
IFaithman, understated the' Independent Livery in
!Itimating theta at IWO, the number who had polled
~_.,41 himself, as there might be about two or three hun-
"'"" among his (Mr. Wood's) voters, who had not
talltd for Mr. Waithman, and this would increase'
!lenumber to from 0200 to V.COO—a number which
be hqped to see doubled on Monday's poll.

LIVERPOOL, OCTOBER 7.
Mr. CANNING'S carriage has broken down three
lines on his way from Devonshire, which, together
*ah the difficulty of procuring horses, has retarded

his arrival here; Mr. Ler?, merchant of London,
but formerly of this town, was with him at Birming-
ham when his '
carriage broke down there, and advis-
ed him to remain there a few hours to take some rest,
and. Mr. LITT proceeded on here in a chaise and
four, with all possible speed, and arrived just at the
time the procession was to begin to move with Mr.
CANNING to make his public entry. The Committee
of the Right Hon. Geddeman determined, that as
every thing was 'arranged, the procession should pro-
ceed, although Mr. CANNING had not arrived, and it,
accordingly did, passing through Seymour-street,
Russell-street, Clarence-street, Slater-street, Bold.
street, Lord-street, Castle-street, where Mr. GLAD-
STONE, a merchant, and Mr. LITT, addressed the
multitude from the top of a coach, but the noise and
confusion was so great, that it was impossible to hear
what they said, except those who were close to the
carriage. After they had finished, Mr. CASEY and
Mr. CLARKE spoke in favour of Mr. BROUGHAM and
Mr. CREEVEY, from Mr. Roscoe's Bahk. The con-
course of people assembled on the occasion were
equal, if not superior, to those assembled on Mr.
BROUGHAM'S entry.

ELECTION ROW AT BATH.
•

- 117
3

Wednesday the Election of two Members to repre-
sent the City of Bath in Parliament, came on at the
Guildhall, when Lord JOHN THYNNE, and Colonel
PALMER, the late Members, where re-elected. Mr.
JOHN ALLEN offered himself as a Candidate upon the•
Freemen's Interest, and strenuously asserted their
Elective Franchise, bufthe Mayor refused to receive
their votes, it having been decided by the House of
Commons in 1706, that the Elective Franchise is
solely vested in the Mayor, Aldermen, and Common
Councilmen, 31 in number, and by an Act 2 Geo. 11.
Chap. 24., that decision was considered as final; not-
; withstanding, after Lord J. THYNNE and Colonel
PALMER were elected and chaired, and the whole
Corporation had left the Hall, Mr. ALLEN kept pos.
session of it, and continued polling the Freemen till
four o'clock, at which time he had polled 29; he then
returned to the Christopher Inn, where he, harangued
the populace (who had assembled in great numbers
before the house) from the window, and desired them
to go home quietly, and• to meet him again the next
morning at eleven o'clock.
Thursday the people began to assemble by nine
o'clock, and by the time Mr. ALLEN appeared, at
eleven, the mob was much greater than on the pre-
ceding day, and on his proceeding to the Guildhall,
the doors were shut against him, it having been pre-.
vicusly agreed upon by the Mayor and Body Cor-
porate, that his conduct was illegal. He then got
upon a bench, brought for that purpose, and began
to address the populace, but was soon interrupted by
the civil power, upon which his fiiends got him away.
This appeared the signal for what is called a row,
which they commenced by breaking all the windows
in the lower part of the Town Hall.
At one o'clock the Riot Act was read, but instead
of dispersing the mob, it only enraged them still
more, for they then demolished all the windows and
lamps within their reach, and would not suffer the
Mayor and Constables to come out of the Hall.

At two o'clock the shops were all shut, and things
began to wear rn alarming aspect • upon which the
cavalry andlvolunteers were called out, who only
got instated and pelted with mud and stones.
At four o'clock a party of dragoons arrived from
the vicinity of Bristol, and scoured the streets and
passages, whicls,seems to have the desired effect.
At five o'clock, Mr. ALLEN left Bath in a chaise
and four for London, promising to be back by Sa-
turday raorning.—The Oxford Militia arrived in the
course of the evening : the streets were full, but quiet.
The military paraded the streets all night, and the
people stemed peaceable yesterday, though rather
unwilling to disperse.
