Sovereign himeelf. The King haat declared by a pro-
clamation, which he had published in Hanover, that no
difference should be made between man and man there
in .iv 1 liberties and in temporal rights, on aico.int of
relit inns belief. (Gre.it cheering, amidst which, a yellow
eicraimed, " Canning's coming, mon, to tell you you.
Ire.'') If the principle on szhich that procl +motion
was founded was trite in Hanover, it would not be false
in Englaii ; and if hi, Nlajesty entertained such'opi
nions with regard to the subjects of 'his foreign domi-
n'ons, it would be a libel and an insult on his und-r-
-standing to suppise that he would • entertain a diffe-
rent nyini,,n as to his English and Irish subj. ets.
Cheers).—Bit let them not make .it necessary to bring
the matter to a strugglt a fourth time; let them do it
this good this d time, a hick they all knew was
isidered lucky, and let them convince the world that
sp to of parsons, patronage, placemen, pensions, tax-
gatl,erers. attornies, and crillectrirs--;n spite of colliers,
weavers, shipwrights, ropers, and carpenvers—the honest
g• ey cna.s of West In,,rel3ntl—whether the Colonel call-
r.l them 'gentry or not—vrete determined to oppose his
:Aber, and to achieve the independence ~f the r county.
A show of hands being in favour of Colonel Lowther
and Vlt. Tlrrnigham, Lftrd Lowther instantly demanded
a poll.. The Under Sheriff appointed it to commence
at two o'clock.
"The polling then commenced, and at half-past four
o'clock the Under Sheriff declared the state of the poll.
I. was as follows:

Lord Lowther . ; 10

The dirge candidates severally expressed their thanks to their
uriorters.

ISCOND DAIr••••71lIDAV ZVENINO.

The business of the election recommenced this morn.
iig with a regular row between, the blues and yellows,
11 which the later were put to a general rout, their
Rigs captured, and torn to pieces. The grater part of
the day passed off quietly enough ;„but a short time
before the poll closed, a similar riot took place between
the two parties, when, after a sharp struggle, in which
'everal heals were broken, and one man setiously
wounded, the " No Popery" banner was again destroyed.
At four o'clock the polling closed, and the niultitarde,
as is usual upon such occasions; began to assemble
round the hustings. A country farmer, of the name of
Richardson, amused Mr. Brongharn's friends by haran-
guing them at considerable length, and with great
vehemence, against the tyranny which, he said, the
Lowthers had long exercised in Cumberland and West-
inoi eland.
Lord Mounzux was then recognised by the crowd,
and loudly cheered. He said he had joined his good
,ai•lies to theirs in two former contests, and he now
fame to witness the third, which he trusted would bring
to an end the tyrannic despotism which the Loss then
had ex,-rcised in the county.
The Under Sheriff then declared the state of the poll.
It was as follows: _ _ _

Lord Low-runn then came forward to return his
cnrdial thanks to.the freeholders who had that day given
het their support. He was gr:rteful to those .of his
lrienis who bait already come forward, and looked upon
their success that day as_a happy indication of what
would be the final result of the poll.. His:hopes of
success were redoubled, since Many of those-voters who-
41aVaefore been doubtful had given him 'their-votes.
Colonel LOWTHER then addresser& the freeholders,
aid thanked them for,the support they hid given ;
hut we could nor hear a: syllable that he said, owing to
the tremendous clamour which was kept up the ?thole
true that he was speaking.
Mr. BROUGHAM.—He was excessively surprised that
their adversaries, after all the attempts which they had
made that day, had only got 22 ahead of the Blues on
that .day's poll. He should not have been at all sur-
prised if their majority had been three or four times
that number, for he would just tell the freeholders
how they had got on so far as they had already. In
the tirst place some of his friends from the eastward
hail gone away home last night, conceiving that the
Blues had votes enough to fill that ward without their
heip the next morning ; and in the next plate, for the
first cause by itself would have mattered little, their
ni)ponents had had recourse to the same means in one
•i:trd, which they had tried so often at the last election-.
lie calms ted his friends, above all other things, to avoid
a breaclt of the peace. Their victory was sore, if thcy
did not throw. it away by over confluence. He thanked
them for the exertions they had made that day ; and he
begged they would continue them.
r. Haut:GaAs' then retired from the-hustings as did di* other
Candidates, and in an hour afterwards the street was comparatively
empty.

SATURDAY MOANING, TIN O'CLOCR.
I have just heatd that the panics who were the most conspicuous
•!:e riot of yesterday afternoon have been identified. taken !se-
toff a :Magistrate, and committed to the jail at Appleby. The poll
is pia; on very ♦igorously this morning, and the pens are at pre-

PRESTON—SATuaba.v.

At the close of the poll on Thursday, after the can-
didates had returned to their hotels, they made their
::seal orations.

Captainßa ROI t—Gentlemen, the enemy has retrnaed
tc, bricks, but that proves their weakness. My friends
"•ase been kept away from the hustings by an armed
"Ai; but be rot intimidated—make your way to the
and the election is mine.
Captain Cototar —Gentlemen, Mr. Wood complains
I have slid harsh- 'Wogs of him; but they were
t've. I have heard that
.Mr. Mod had used certain
Improper expressions against my friend Captain Barrie.
ill investigate the truth of that report; and if I find it
io he emrect. I pledge myself to 'call him to the strictest
account that one Gentleman can demand from another
(From the csowd•—" that the fellow, challenge him:')
Ile not dismayed at my friend's station on the poll. Do

Ihereh, hurrah).
Mr. STANLEY, in his address, made snme hits at Mr.
ho had. asserted he had' 000 unpolled voters
—can ve believe it ?—No, his alleged majority is, like
tve; y thing' else he talks .bout, the lure cseatuie of his

Mr. Woos thastkeil his riotous
_Alois for their peace-
rrok conduct, and laboured hard to convince the crowd
that they could do nothing bait so good as to return
him to Parliament. . .
Mr. Clearr-r harangued his ;nob at his favourite
hour, eight o'clock. Mr. Wood was his theme. Ile
abused his brother Reformer to" all intents and pur-
-poses—contempt, anger, hatred, and all uncharitable-
ness he poured on him; accused him of dulness, deceit,
treachery,ingratitude, and all the crimes in the catalogue
of election immoralities, all because h;s brother Reformer
appears likely to he elected. In the evening Cobbett
discharged the. remainder of his anger against Wood in
the shape of a hand bill.
- Yesterday an armed mob blockaded the don leading
to Mr. Cobbett's tally box, from an early hour in the 1
morning—they repelled all but Mr. Wood's voter. 4
—The opening of the Court was attended by the usual
rush of Wood's voters into Cobbett's tally box, and di
stormy discussion be:vveen the agents of the candidates
Mr. Cobbett, jun. entreated the Mayor to turn these
electors our.

Captain Barrie's agent charged Mr. Wood's Com-
mittee with having' bludgeonmen ; this Mr W. denied.
Mr. Br .y, the Town Mite, and Mr. Nicholson, the
Mayor's Bailiff, the associate returning officers, 1. ft the
hustings to superintend the disarming of the mob, but
after a few moments re-appeared hastily and in evident
agitation.

Mr. BRAY—We have been 'drives back by the armed men—
struck., and pursued into the Hall.
Mr. NscnoLsors-1 got two blows of a bludgeon.
An Ageot for Captain Barrie—l have been struck on the face
with a bv—look at the blood.
• 'nit MAYOR—This is intolerable.

An 17.1.aeroa—The armed men vbn't let any body but Mr.
Wood's friends near Mr. Cobhrtes door.

Captain BA RIUI ;rising in a fury)—l say they are Wood's mob.
(To Mr. Wood.) They are your mots.
Captain COLGOIY—This violence arises from the Mamas' ha-
rangues of Mr: Wood—from his cowardly treachery.
Agent of Wood (to Capt. Barrie)—.You gave those armed Men
ale yesterday evening, and their breakfast this morning:
Captain BAaats--ft,is false; they are hired by Mr. Wood:
The MAYOR—These armed men must be pat down.
Mr. Nicnot.sos—There's no force in the town sufEcient to sup-
press them. _

Maros—Then I must send for more. I'll take care that the
elect Ors shall get free access to the hustings, and that before long. I
am left but one resource, and that I will employ if I am compelled
to it.

Captain Baasta—ril petition the House of Commons against the
return. lam pledged to do it and dolt.
Maroa—You have a right to do it. Proceed to the poll,
The polling then commenced amid much confusion. which soon
subsided. Captain Barrie 's agents declined examining any of the'
voters, on the ground that they bad protested against all the proceed-
logs a. illegal.
Mcvna—Then I'll examine the voters myself; 'tis my business
to take care that none but qualified persons are allowed to vine.
Tranquillity was restored within the Count. but at the,
outside, particularly at the door leading to Cobbett's
tally-box, bustle, tumult, and threats of violence, were
I frequent among the rabbferib itiganized body of them
stood in two files near Cobbetes.door ; they were armed
with short, thick, heavy bludgeons, with which they
thru b ick every toter (not a frieud•of Wood's) who At-
tempted to enter, and menacederes y well-dressed person
who came in sight. Such a ragged, filthy, ferocious set
of ruffians never met together before; No decent per-ion
felt safe while near them. Captain Barbel enters weie
actually awed from voting. Mr. Wood's voter! Oared
in abuntantly, and kft the-Captain behind en the poll
by a considerable majority. . •
This was the state of affaiwashalf past ten, when a
party of Dragoons (the Ist OrsiCiites Dragoon Guards), I
headed by their comminder,'-titptain. Polhill, turned
the corner in full gallop, dasMcliowards• the Miti-ket,
and charged the lately triudiPbant bludgeon gentry
With drawn swords. The Dragoon:had:advanced very
rapidly, but not half so rapidlres the universal surrage
into retreated. •The red coati,-knihy helthets, waving
swords, and warlike appearifice of the troopers, height-
ened by the rapid suddenness.of their approach, and the
tremendous sound of their heavy and impetuous tramp-
ling on the paved street, absolutely terrified the armed
?Alan:. Away they new on ,all sides
-;,some down the
street before the dragoons—softie into the door which
they had been guarding—same • hid their clubs and
skulked into the croWd— but one had the spirit, or ra-
ther audacity, to raise his club against the military.—
Ile was instailly ovetpowered and seized. The mo-
ment the Mayor learned the arrival of the dragoons,
he proceeded with his associates and constables to that
part of the hustings (Cobbett's side) where the riotous
club men had taken shelter, had' them taken into cus-
tody, disarmed handcuffed, and conveyed to the House
of Correction, between two lines of constables, &inked
by dragoons. They were ea •mined instantly by two
Magistrates—they all stated that tiley received the
bludgeons from Wood's Committee, for the purpose of
keeping Captain Barrie's voters from the hustings; and
that they had got their breakfast and drink that morn-
ing at M. Wood's tally-room. The majority of them
were voters—eighteen were committed on the charge of
" riotously assembling, and, by violence, preventing
divers persons from approaching the busting!. They
were all of the very lowest class. Alm the Mayor had
resumed his seat, a ruffianhad the audacity to throw a
stotie from the court-yard at the hustings. The Mayor's
bailiff ordered the constables to seize him ; but, with

their usual indifference, they declined making the
slightest exertion to apprehend him. He, of course,
escaped for time.
The body of the dragoons paraded in front of the
door to Cobbett's box till twelve o'clock, and kept it
open to all voters indiscriminately. The mob assailed
them with every kind of abusive language. The old
soldiers never returned an answer, but byre their re
vilings with the most admirable temper and good
humour. At twelve o'clock the general body went to
their quarters at the several inns, leaving bat three to
maintain order and free access to the hustings.
The town was tranquil through the remainder of the
day; the polling proc .?ded rapidly, and Capt. Barrie's
voters being admitted, as well as Wood's, into Cobbett's
tally-box, the Captain regained his lost ground very
considerably towards evening. One of the voters, on
being asked for whom he would vote, answered, " The
two Christians—Mr. Stanley and Captain Barrie."—
(Laughter). The psint of this answer depends on the
circumstance of Mr. Wood h. ing an Unitarian, and the
supposition that Mr. Cobbett is of no religion at all.
The Candidates, after re urning from the hustings,
edifiet their friends with their boastings of success, and
all that empty Rash, nonsense which the barren invention
of the speakers, and the vile taste of their hearers, inflict
do election assemblages.
Cobbett did not appear on the hustings during the day.
SavoRDAIN
The Radical agents of Cobbett, seeing no chance of
.leering their friend, have inined all their exet lions to
secure the return Of their second favourite, the Reformer.
Wood, who is still a head of Captain Barrie. and is in-
creasing his majority every moment. Nothing but some

SOMERSETSIIIRE ELECTION.—Fsrrn My.

Th- polling of to-day proceeded• very languidly.—
Mr. Dickinson was in town pa, t-of the day, and occa-
sionally attended in Cana, but Sir Thomas Lethbridge
was again absent all the day, and Mi. Dickinson did not
appe it in. Court when the nuichers were announced.
• Mr. Huai. said whatever others roigi,t think of hir
preensions, he was perfectly well satisfied with this
I day's poll. His voters came in when they pleased ; he
had no means of commanJing their attendance. He
believed that his friends were now pr. paling in right
earnest that the freeholders wet e now girding owtheir
swords, and getting ready for the battle, which, in
reality, would not begin till next week or perhaps the
week after nes% (Laughter.) He congratulated them
on the defeat of the prototype of Sir l'homas Letb7..
bridge, he meant Mr. Sumner, in Surrey. Sumner was
goiie, and the example had been set to Somersetshire.
(Applame ).
From the crowd—Ay, he is gone ; and so shall leather breeches
—(lloars of laughter and hisses).
Mr. liver—Ye+, with the bleasing of Gni. leather breeches shall
go—(Continued laughter.) Mr Hunt then thanked the 2:-.9 honest
elector who had voted fur him.
Here a person in the gallery held out a dead owl decorated with
Mr. Ilunt'scolours, and said to Air. Hunt, " Here you are." This
produced much laughter.
_ . _

Mr. HUNT said, th those who had planned the j.ke
either intended him a high compliment. or were very ill
read in ancient history. ',The owl, although an ugly
bird, was always accounted by the ancients the emblem
of wisdom, and he rejoiced to see his colours upon it—
(Cries of " Ay, and it has the white feather in its tail.")
Minerva carried the image of it upon her helmet, and
certainly wourd not be much honoured by transfer to
either of the other candidates, whatever might be her
feeling with respect to himself—(Laughter).
