The number ofperfong polled during the firfi eight
days of the poll, was 16,670. The total of votes,
during the fame period, was 24,6605-1752 votes
were colleEled on Friday, (the 9.11 day) and it may
be prefumed upwards of r too perfons polled ; fo that
(including Saturday's poll) upwards of r B,coo free-
holder a have been already polled.
It may not be uninterelling to fuch of our readers
as have not had an opportunity of witneffing the bufy
fcene now performing, to be informed of the Itage
arrangement :
The wapentakcs have been apportioned, according
to an agreement between the Candidates, amongff
thirteen booths, at each of which a Deputy for the
Sheriff, with a poll der k,attends. Betides the infpceor,
or check clerk, for each Candidate, there is allowed
an agent, to object to the difputable votes, and ano-
ther agent, or malinger, to convey the difputed
votes to the Sheriff's b-oth, to be argued. The
Sheriff's booth is at the crown end of the Courts,
where he prefides with two Counfel, as his affeffors,
to determine on the difputed votes.—The affeffors
are Mr. Serjeant HEYWOOD and Mr. Serjeant Bay LAY.
Counfel for Mr. Wilherforce—Mr. Reader. and Mr. Mourne.
Costae! for Mr. Lafceltcs—Mr. Courthope, Mr. Dickens, and
Mr. Hardy.
Counfel for Lord Milton—Mr. Sinclair, Mr. Haywood, Mr.
Maude. Mr. Sykes, Mr. Nicoll, and Mr. Clifton.
The Deputy Sheriffs at the Booths are—Mr. Newftead (County
Clerk), Mr. Thorpe (heal Keeper), Mr. Hall (Deputy Sheriff,
North Riding), Mtffrs. Ewbant and Paul (Ditto Eaft Riding),
Mr. Gray, York, Mr. Scott, York, Mr. Lockwood, Beverley, Mr.
W. Powell, Stoics Bey. Mcffrs. W. and J. tattoo, Hedon, Mr. Gar-
land, and Mr. I iugall, of Hull.

Two Commiffi-oners attend at the Ni fl Pries Court
and an adjoining room, to adminifler the ufual oaths.
If a vote is difputed at any of the b'►oths, the agents
for the Candidates have an unlimited power of ap-
pealing to the afreffors ; nor can a freeholder be re-
fufed before the Deputy Sheriff, if any agent objeas.
If a voter be rejeaed either at a polling booth, or
after a hearing in Court, it b ffill competent for him
to tender himftlf again, fhould he (on obtaining fur-
ther evidence in (import of his freehold) be difpofed
to du fo. This ought to be generally known ; both
to cotrea the mifapprehenlion, that a vote once re•
jeaed cannot again be tendered ; and alfo to thew
that a vote may be at firft rejeged, and on a fubfe-
quent tender admitted, without any proof of error in
the firil decifion.

Laft night's Gazete contains Addrelres to the
KING, on the firmnefs his MAJESTY was pleafed to
thew on a tect.nt octagon, from the cour.ty of Me-
rioneth, the towns of Sanquhar and Warrington,
and the boroughs of Barntlaple, Wick, Jcdburgh,
and Dingwall.
Wednelday the toth ult. the fuccefsful Candidates
for the B Tough of Lancaner, Mr. MINT and Mr.
Parram, were met about two mi'es from Warrington
by the principal inhabitants of that place, and an
immenfe concourfe of people, who immediately took
the horfes from each of their carriages, and drew
them to Bank Hall, the refilence of Mr. PATTEN.
A curious circumliance occurred at the White
Hart Inn, at Goldford, at the clofe of the EleCtion
—Some of the fivinifr multitude, not content with
drinking as much as ;rabic at the expence and libe-
rality of Mr. THORNToN, (one of the fuccefsful can-
didates) issekted feveral bottles of wine ; which being
found to go off remarkably fan, two gentlemen fof
peeling (rinse fool play was going forward, placed
themfelves at the foot of the (lairs, and in the pockets
of whomfoever they difccvered a bottle, cut ► ff the
skirts of the coat, with the pocket and bottle, and
fent them to the landlord. nom (hame, or what-
ever caufe, thole who had thus their coats cut, made
the bell of their way out of fight; fo that no difco-
very was made, and the gentlemen cut at coat-skirts
to the number of feventecn.
