freeholder who had promised him remained to give
his vote, for the purpose of preventing the representa-
tion of the county becoming the property of the owner
of the Allendale lead mines—(Loud Appiause). How
Mr. Beaumont could consider himself absolved, as he
called it, by the meeting at Morpeth, he (Lord
Howick) could not tell. They .all remembered how
Mr. Beaumont was absolved. It was by the voices
of a Shields attorney and a band of hired miscreants.
Mr. Beaumont had told them that at that meeting he
bad answered all the charges brought against him ; but,
if they read the proceedings of that meeting,_they would
find the only answers were the shouts of those disturbers.
In alluding to Mr. Liddell, his Lordship said that Gen-
tleman's conduct with resrect to the Catholics had been
Quite incomprehensible; and requested to know if Mr.
L. would now say whether he would admit Catholics
into the House of Commons? He (Lord H.) had said
on a former day; that he hoped Mr. Liddell's would be
a short-lived triumph. That expression had been
strangely misrepresented. What he (Lord H.) meant
was, that it the facts could be substantiated, at he be.
lieved they could, b fore a Committee 'of the Hotta, oh
Common.. they would devriv e Ms. of his seat.
.Mr. I.troorra. then again came forward, and :id,
that with res, act to what Lord flowick had said last,
he defied any thing but perjury, to affix a stamp upon
his character. As the surest protection to the Protestant
Church. he wished to afford equal rights to a large
body of subjects. Mr. L. inquired if his Lordship sup-
ported the Catholics from a respect for the country, or
for the tenets of their church ?

Lord Howtor said, he advocated their cause from a conviction,
that they only sought their rights, and inquired if Mr. LiddeU
would answer yes or no, whether be would admit the Catholics into
the House of Commons?
Mr. Linnet'. replied at some length, and avowed himself astral.
advocate fur the Catholic claims.
Mr. BICAUMOINT--1 will now drag, not Lord Howick, but the
Head and front of all these proceedings—
• The Huse Su re, re—.. Are you going to explain, Mr. Beaumont r
Mr. Ileetistortt —" Ye.. I am going to accuse Mr. Lambton of
prom/long Lord Howick, which I have wen bin do at every sea-
tenor of his speech."
Mr. 'Aortae-1, i have not."
Mt. BRAPICONT--.4' Mr. Lambton, Oentleasen, says it Is sat tbi
Wt. I say it is fa:se."
. Mr. LAUSTON then resented him:. IF, amidst the
cheers tif one party, and the clamours of another. After
rite time spent in procuring silence, Mr. Lambton
a,'dressesl the meeting. He stated that they had all
iriruessed the violent and intentional attack made upon
one vitro was well content to be a silent spectator of
what was passing. The noise continuing, Mr. Lambton
asked if it was their intention that he should be heard.
or not? because he was perfectly ready to give Mr.
Beaumont a very different answer—an answer which he
rrost assuredly should have. He hoped that the free-
holders of NQrthnmherland were not to be assured at
this day, that his noble relative (Lord. Howick) had
talents which did not require prompting. It was true
he (Mr. Lartbtnn) had made some observations on what
was passing to his friends, ani he had yet to learn that it
was not an Englishman's prerogative to do so. If it was
Mr. Beaumont's intention to resolve this ittto a private
(petrel, he should not. as far as he (Mr. L) was con,
cerned, be baulked in his inclination. Lord Howiek
had been sacrificed to a base and odious coalition, but
he would retire from the contest with an honour which
would always belong to the name of Grey in its native
county. Mr. L. then assured the Freeholders, in the
Garr e of Lord Howick and in his own, that he (Lord H.)
would stand whilst one man remained to vote for him,
and alluded to the means taken to induce the county to
believe that his Lordship would not stand. Even letters
bad been daily sent off, stating that he had actually
resigned. How could he (Lord IL) ensure his success is
a future election, better than by giving every freeholder
an opportunity of voting in this? He (Mr. L) had
always considered his Noble Relation fully equal to
answer any attacks that might be made upon him—a
consideration which had hitherto withheld him (Mr. L.)
from indulging in the nearest and dearest feelings of his
heart—those of addressing his fellow-countrymen on a
trestion of great public interest—(Great applause.)
Mr. Lasseron, accompanied by the Hon. Citadel
Grey upon leaving the hustings retired to a house, to
which all the effm ts of his family to discover him were
r;ilieffeetuaL The insult he received was offered in the
Ittering (as Mr. Beaumont, who gave it, knew) of Lady
touise Lambton, who sat, with her son, in the window
of a house adjoining the hustings; and this Lady, with
the 'natural solicitude of a wife, remained in an agony of
anxiety. Lord Howick, who remained on the hustings,
knew not where to find Mr. Lambton. At length it
was ascertained, that he had, immediately on leaving
the hustings, despatched Captain Bacon Grey, to Mr.
Beaumont, desiring that Gentleman to hold a friend in
readiness to receive an immediate communication from
Gen. Grey, for wham the War. C. Grey Wad rode off ex-
press to Howie k. In less than an hour the Gen. arrived
in Alnwick, and had a conference with Capt. Plunkett
on the part of Mr. Beaumont. The result was, an ap-
roirament fOr a hostile meeting at nine o'clock precisely
on the same evening at the Moor, three miles from this
town. At a quarter before nine o'clock, Mr. Lambton and
Gen. Grey repaired to the place of appointment, and at
20 minutes be:ore nine o'clock they met Mr. Beaumont
and his friend walking on the road, at nearly three
miles' distance from the moor. Mr. Lambton reached
his ground, where he did not find Mr. Beaumont, bet
shortly afterwards received a communication from him
by Captain Plunkett, that he (the Captain) finding Mr.
Beaumont beset by a crowd on the way, had advised him
to return, as no doubt the meeting would be disturbed.
Some conversation took place in consequence of this
anticipation that Mr. Beaumont would be disturbed on
the ground, to which he had not arrived ; and the result
was, that the matter was left to stand in that condition.
The parties all returned to Alnwick, where, up to this
hair dour o'clock) Saturday morning, matters remain
it. 4;airr quo.

lIIIBT&I4SItELAND ELECTlON.—szvenv Day.
Amur, num:.
The polling went on but slowly yesterday. A report
peevailed that Mr. Biougham 1144:1 given up the contest,
sad had quitted Appleby without taking a formal leave
of the elector'. The Lowther' themselves believed it,
aad issued orders to have their different open houses

on

,reugham, woo, _Mowed to
vote, as he could not swear that his freehold was worth
.40s. a year, when all the cnarges on it were paid. There
were one or two skirmishes in the-crowd today, but so
insignificant as to he hardly worth mentioning.
In the evening the man Duffle, who appeared on the
two previous evenings: first as a negro, and next as a
parson, last night paraleJ the streets as a bellman,
crying a reward for certain quantities of mushrooms,
which had been lost, as follows:—" Ninety Thousand
Guineas Reward. Lost. forty more mushrooms, grown
in a field near Dallam Tower. •Oh shame; that the
former assertors of the independence of the county
should plant such .nozious roots.' Apply at the Ln...ther
Committee Room. Mushroom sauce is only wanted at
the King's Head. Calves head (the animals grown in
Lowther Parrock) may he enjoyed as usual at the above
place, but without brains or tongne. N.B. &vent y
mushrooms now rotten, more are becoming so. Huzza!
Brougham for eves."
Nothing of any moment his occurred here to-day.
Every thing has been as dull as po..,ible, and even the
bands seesnsweary of the noise which they have been so
incessantly making during the last sse,k. As five o'clock
the state of the poll was announced as follows :

Lord Lowther t 3923
Cotenel Lowther 31151 •
Mr. Brougham . . 1353
In the Kendal booth, it is laid, that a Clergyman ap-
peared to vote for the Yellows, and in reply to a queston
from Mr. Pearson, one of Mt. Brougham's agents, ad-
mitted that he had preleed a sermon from the test,
" Blush ye, ye Blues, who have broken my windows."
Some laughable jokes have been played off here ; one
of the best of which is that which has bern played on
Captain Daton, who is a strendous supporter of the
Yellows. The walls of his hria,se were painted with the
watch-word of the Blues, " Again and again; and on
getting up in the morning, he found his street door, very
much to his annoyance, painted blue. '
Lord LowTHER thanked the freeholders for having
placed him at the head of the poll, by a majority of
between five hundred and six hundred votes. They were
yesterday entertained with a merry description of his
(Lord Lowther's) voters, which had been facetiously
described as cartenters and shipwrights. Whether any
snob persons had done him the honour to vote for hin,
he could not pretend t 3 say; but certainly the sar
cam' for as such it was, intended, came with a very
ill grace from the Learned Gentleman who had de.
voted so much of his time to the establishment of
Mechanics' Institutions--(Applause and hisses) —He
begged it to he eistincly un.terstood, tbat be was no
enemy to Mechanics' Institutions; he was a subscribe,
to one or two of them, and certainly he cons'dered
them as harmless establishments, for if they d: d no good,
they could be productive of little ha. m. With iespect.
to the mushroom votes, as they were termed, they
all knew who they were who commenced that
system-..(cries of "we do, and so do you') and if their
opponents were met with their UIA n %eaponi, the fault
did not lie each him (Lord Lowther), nor wita those
who acted with him. They wtre. invited .yesterday to
enter into a scrutiny of the votes at the last election..
How the votes actually stood at that election he did
not kr ow, for he had not matte the inquiry ; but he ob-
served that the Gentleman made eo Mention
of the first election, when the rani ty was on :its oacn
basis, and when no new voter had been made for fifty
years before. Besides circumstances had altered since
the last election ;—they had all heard mention made o't
a certain document, bearing the sign awes of some 70
or 80 freeholders, all of whom deserve] the Learned
Gentleman this election, although they supported him
before; besides these, there were nearly as many more
opposed to him since the last election, so that he 'did
not think the Learned Gentleman would gain anything
by a scrutiny. He could but inadequately thank the
freeholders for having so zealously come forward in his
support, and wish them a good evening,.
Colonel LoWTHIta slid, if there was illy thing re-
quired to cheer and encourage them in their exertions,
they had it in the triumphant majority et 296 upon the
day's poll, and, speaking in round numbers, of more
than 500 votes upon the gross poll, over the Hon
Member for Winchelsea (Applause and hisses). The
weigt t of the nearlpmade ent:•2 was th own entirely
upon their shoulders; and the Learned Gentleman, in
his comps; ison and explanation of those votes yesterday,
expressed a hope that he (Colonel Llwthei) would be
able to understand the distinction "hich he drew, Ail
he (Colonel Lowther) was able to understand from that
explanation wait, that the Learned Gentleman was
anxious to have some pet name for his votes, and there-
fore, while he called their new votes mushrooms, he
(Colonel Lowther) should, for di-tinction sake, and to
please the I".arned Gentlen.an, call his new votes fun ,
guises (a bugh). Ile again thanked them for their
kindness, and hoped to meet those Gentlemen who had
DIX yet voted tomorrow morning. . .
Mr. Baoticnao said he had yesterday explained to
them in a manner which he was sure they the free-
holders understood, and which the two ether Can-
didates understood also, the otter and entire dif
ference between what he called, and justly called,
mushroom votes, and the split votes upon his side.—
(Yes, the fungusses.)_ Aye, they had heard thejoke
of the Gallant Colonel, who, as they all knew, was a
great wag in his way—(A laugh and a cry of" So are
you"). It was in this way that th# misfortunes of the
county were continued between the two Honourable
Candidates. They were jockeyed by the Noble Lord,
and then they were joked and laughed at by the wag:
fiery of the Gallant Colonel—(A laugh). But he would
rather have the waggery cf the Gallant Colonel op-
posed to him, dangerous as it was known to be, than
encounter the jockeying of the Noble Lord his brother.l
For, by his jockeying and his arrangement, he had de-
prived them of the means of conveyance. He was not
the man to be afraid of their majority of five hundred
votes—he cared not for the majority of which they
bragged so much to-day, even though they should
to-morrow increase it by one hundred more. If
having majorities opposed to him could dishearten
him in a good cause—if having been repeatedly de-
feated could silence him. and make him vire up that
great question which he had ever supported upon prin-
ciple, then would they have that moment an intolerant
and bigotted Ministry in the place of the half liberal
and half.tolerant Administration who now ruled the
country.—((;heers.) If he was a man to sink and despair
. at defeat, we should still have the trade and commerce
of the country shackled with those restraints which the

The perfidy of the Burmese has not gone long un-
punished ; and we have the satisfaction of stating that
intelligence has this day been received from India an
nouncing new successes of our arms. It is not probable
now that Sir AECHIBALD CAMPBELL will stop or listen
to any terms until he has reached the capital of Ava-
which there is no doubt he has done long before this
time. We believe our army has now passed the pun

"Being too weak to attack the port ,the Commander of the detach.

Grant immediately marched to his assistance with the rest of She

which route they passed several stockades that had been corn.

Vance ; they joined the detachment on the 16th. On reconneitvr•
ing the stockade, it was found to he of considerable strength and
extent. The party were uaprovided with artillery, and an aug•mtis
to carry it by escalade must have been attended with scantiness.
It was ascertained. however, that the water of the Stizt tnle was pro-
cured from a nullach 60 paces distant, and advantage was prompt!y
taken of this circumstance to rut tiff the Barman, trom their supply.
