SOUTHWARK ELECTION.—Ftern (ruts) DAt.
The exertions of the respective Candidates and the 'r
friends remain unrelaxed, particularly those of Mr.
Polhill, who have been much encouraged by the dimi.
notion of the majoritragainst him on Saturday. They
were early on the hustings this morning, and each on
mounting the platform was enthusiastically cheered by
bit supporters. The crowds its the early pat'Of the
morning were much increased, owing to a rumour that
prevailed that a fourth Candiditrwould be proposed.
This, however, did not take place. Mr. Polhill pttiforth
an address, denying, in an emphatic manner, any know.
ledge of the letter to which Sir R. Wilson alluded on
Saturday. He assures his friends that his -ultimate
success is certain, and that he will not give up the con-
test until, the very last elector is polled. In the circum-
stances of the day the only novelty that presents itself
is the establishment at the Queen's Head Tavern, where
Sir Robert Wilson holds his head-quarters, of a Com-

OXFORD COUNTY ELECTION.
OXFORD, alas It.
The meeting of the freeholders of Oxfordshire will
take place in the Town Hall tomorrow morning, (this
clay) for the purpose of nominating proper persons to
represent that county in Parliament. Three candidates
have already scatted, and it is expected that a fourth
will he named. Mr. Fane, of Wormsley, and Mr. Ash
burst, of Waterstock, the late Members, and Mr. Strat.
ton, of Warwickshire, are the candidates who have
already made known their intentions. It is a singolar
circumstance, that Mr. Stratton, who now opposes Mr.
Ashhurst, actually nominated that gentleman at a for.
titer Election, and they always have lived on the most
friendly terms. Mr. Fane and Mr. Ashhurst are sup-
ported by nearly all the gentleroen of large landed pro
petty in the county; Mr. Stratton by the smaller free-
holders. Oaring to the late rage for building ir. Oxford,
nearly 400 new freeholds have been made by the erec-
tion of tenements in places which were formerly gardens
and meadows. It is somewhat remarkable, that Mr.
Stratton should come forward as a candidate for a
county is which he does not possess an acre of land.

TO THE WORTHY AND INDEPENDENT LIVERY

OF LON T)ON.

Gewrxestunt,
IHAVE understood this morning, in conversation
with the Right Honourable the Loan MAYOII, that he was
induced to offer himself u a Candidate for your suffrages in con-
sequence an untierstuding, on his part, that it was not my in-
tention to seek the honour of representing you ;—that I bad not
any such intention is, I believe, universally known. It would be to
me, however, a source of nsortilication much greater than I can
express, if, even by my acquiescence in the wishes of others, any
eventual injury should be effected to a Gentleman with whom,
from the earliest period of our acquaintance, I have lived upnn
terms of the strictest friendship. I have, therefore, deemed it right
to intimate to those of the Livery who were anxious that I should
become your Representative, my wish that they should abstain
from an future efforts on my behalf; but I cannot take leave of
you, without expressing my sense of extreme obligation to those
Mends who have spontaneously manifested so favourable an opi-
nion of me, and my thanks to the Livery at large for the kindness
with whit!, they have resolved my past services.

I have the honour to be,

OXFORD CITY ELECTION.-Arn 11.

The Election for the above city will commence on
Tuesday next, and it is expected that a most severe
contest will take place. The candidates named are
ltlr. Hughes Hughes, of Clapham Common. Mr. Lock-
hart, of Sheffield House, Hants, (the late Member),
and Mr. Langston, of Sars.len House, Oxfordshire.—
The latter gentleman has not himself canvassed, nor
indeed even made known his intention of becoming a
candidate. He represented the borough of'Woodstock
in the late Parliament, and yesterday was defeated in
his attempts again to become its Member. Immediately
the circumstance was known at Ogord, certain Mem-
hers of the Council Chamber proposed him as a fit and
proper person to represent the city, and managed to
Procure a show of hands in his favour, in a meeting
principally composed of nee-freemen. The attempt
appears to have been made for the express purpose of
overwhelming the independence of the place by the
eforts of rank and authority; but the friends of the
freedom of the city are fully coafident of success.—
Indeed, it is not expected that Mr. Langston will consent
is become the tool of the party.

I believe, have contaated year favour and placed my success out
of the roach of controversy. Under this disadvantage, however, my
muse his prsspered, and I have the satisfaction to find myself
second 00 the day's poll. In my professional capacity, permit me
to say, that I have never yet *hewn the white feather; and if you
will espy year most zealous and active exertions in my behalf, I

SIXTH (THIS) DAY.

The Guildhall this day was unusually thronged, and
a considerable degree of popular excitement was mani-
fested, probably owing to the rapid advance and he W-
ing on the poll of Mr. Alderman Wood by Mr. Ward•
The latter Gentleman's friends were received with
hissing and the voters for the former with much cheer-
ing. The contest is now becoming so severe between
the Lord Mayor, and Alderman Wood, that is a
matter of very considerable doubt which of the two
will lose his election; as it is hinted that a coalition-in
favour of the Lord Mayor will be started this day ; and
if so, the struggle will be between Alderman Wood and
Alderman Waithrnan. However, from the agitation
and hurried movements of the Committees, it would
appear they are straining every nerve in this great
"tug of war."
The quiet of the Guildhall-yard was, between ten
and eleven o'clock, somewhat disturbed by the following
placard, which, it is hinted, emanated from a " NJ
Popery" Committee :

4' At a Meeting held this day, the 14th June, at the Roman Ca-
tholic Chapel (not mentioning which or where), it was unanimously
resolved. that as Mr. Alderman Wood has proved himself the '
staunch friend of our Catholic rights and emancipation, we shaU
give him our support.
" Liverymen ! Let not Protestants triumph."
The apprarance of this silly production, as may be
supposed, produced great uneasiness ; and in an instant
a crowd collected round the unfortunate placard-bearer,
and soon laid him rrostrate. Ilis " Banner" was then
seized, and wrenched from his very tenacious grasp,
and sma‘hed into fifty piecrs. Some of the fragments
were broken on the banner-bearer's head ; and he was
shortly after seen complaining, in a strong Hibernian
accedt, of the treatment he had experienced. All he
had remaining of the banner of his employers was the
long pole, which he held upright, and altogether cut a
most amusing figure after his defeat. As the contest
thickens, the interest is increased, and kept alive by new
devices and mottos ; and the citizens appear to shake
off their uneasiness, end become very animated indeed. The ac-
complished and beautiful Lady Mayoress appeared in her carriage
at the Hall, and was greeted with tremendous cheers.

The following is the state of the poll:

At three o'clock the senate adjourned till five, when
the polling was. resumed, and continued without any
thing particular occurring up to nine, when a most
extraordinary scene ensued ? A Gentleman advanced to
give his vote, and on the proctor tendering the oath, ap-
pealed to the Vice Chancellor whether or not he was
bound to take it. The Vice Chancellor was understood
to reply in the affirmative, upon which the Gentleman
declared, that he considered the tendering of the oath
An insult to the University. An immense shouting of
" hear, hear ; it is, it is," immediately ensued, both from
the gaaeries and the boiy of the Hall. The Vice Chan-
cellor quitted his seat, and walked into the body of the
Hall,upon which some Gentleman got upon the table,and
declared that he never was insulted in his life till that day,
when he found himself called upon to take the bribery
oath. Another Gentleman said, the voters had been treat-
ed most scandalously—worse than if they had belonged
to the most corrupt borough in the kingdom. The
very suspicion which the oath implied was a most goo
insult. Several now began to speak at once, all, hog.
ever, against the practice, and at last, having exhausted
themselves, a getyral cry of " Poll, Poll" was made.
This having subsided, the Vice-Chancellor again toot
his seat, and the polling recommenced, but without any
administration of the obnoxious oath. The rapidity
with which business was now going on was astGnishing,
as may be judged from the following state of the
at its close at ten o'clock.

WZDNICIDAT MORNING

The administration of the bribery oath, and the up•
roar to which it last night save rise, have produced an
astonishing sensation in this town, especially as it Is
known to have been levelled against those non-resi-
dents, who, it was supposed, would, as usual, stipulAtt
for their expenses. No instance for years had before
occurred of this oath having been tendered, and it Is
understood that even now it was not at the desire ot
with the concurrence of any of the principal residert
Members, but was solely brought about by two mt.
voters, who, immediately on the business being openrd,
went up to the Vice-Chancellor, and insisted Om;
oath should be taken. It appears the great body c:
the Members assembled in the town, bad from the ht,:
been indignant at the introduction of the oath, whio
they considered to be a direct impeachment. of the:
character and honour as a learned body, and there was
no doubt that they wanted only an opportunity to re
vent to their feelings on the subject.
At eight o'clock this morning the polling ream•
rnenced, with the same formalities as before, with the
exception that the Bribery Oath was no longer required.
l'he business, however, proceeded very languid for ill:e
.first few hours, there being but few unpolled voters'"
he town. About twelve ri'clock, however, this best'.
ncrea:cd, and it is probable, when the London cuaciss
rr ye, the polling will become as brisk as yestcrJar-

YORKSHIRE.

Mr. Bethell has, since his nomination, resigned his pretensions,
which, according to the present appearance, will prevent a conte►t
for the county. The cause of bis retiring is said to be, that the
money which be expected to be raised by subscription is nor tuna.
coming,and his own fortune is not so large as to justify his entering
on a contest unaided. Mr. Beaten's determination is announced
In the following letter—

" Gentlemen—l have to acquaint you, that although Mr. Bethel!
has this day been honoured by a majority in his favour, by a show

COUNTY OF ESSEX.

Yesterday the Election of two Members for the county of Esse:
came on at Chelinsforsl, before the High Sheriff, N. Nassau. Esq.
accompanied by his official attendants, and a very respectable body
of freeholders.

Sir G. H. &MX nominated Admiral Sir Eliab Harvey, and the
nomination was seconded by Mr. Lociwooo.
Sir T.E. holattvaas proposed Charles Callls Western, Esq. and
Mr. J. DISNEY seconded the nomination.
Sir Ewa Haavair addressed the electors at some length. Al-
luding to the Catholic Question, he said, he felt that there was
great danger in tampering with established institutions. They
would, perhaps, better understand what he meant, by some lines
that must have been familiar to them all in their childhood :

" Huntpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall;
Not all the King's horses, nor all the King's men,
Could set Humpty Dumpty up again" (Laughter and applause).
They might rely upon his exertions to prevent the further en-
c roachments of the Catholics.

.....
Mr. Busiest WiSTIAN appeared;on- the part of Ms relative, to state
how much he regretted indisposition had prevented him from at
tending that day on the hustings. If he could have been there, there
could be no doubt he would have satisfied them as to every point of
his political conduct.—(Applause:) The approbation of the free-
holders 4if Esse: was his greatest happiness.
After a few observations from Sir John Tyrell, the Sheriff de-
, dared Sir Mb Harvey and C. C. Western, Esq. duly elected.

Sir Bums II A returned thanks for his rc-. clection.
Three cheers were then again given for Sir 044 Mai/4:y.

Sheriff, for his impartial and honourable conduct in the Chair.

The motion wis carried by acclamation, with three time three.
Sir ILsus Haavar begged to inform his friends, before they
separated, that toast beef and plum puddings wet.: provided fur

performed, in which Mr. B. Western acted as proxy for his relat;ve.

QUEEN-SQUARE.

Yesterday Charles Better, the coachman to the Dowager Mar-
chioness of Hertford, was charged by the officer Handley, whose
evidence was corroborated by Cooper, with dangerously driving
his equipage, on the occasion of Prince Polignac's late entertain-
ment.—lt appeared, that about two o'clock on the morning of tke
30th of May, the defendant had driven her Ladyship's coach and
horses from the carriage road upon the foot pavemeut, in Portland-
place, to the annoyance and terror of all per.ont who happened to
Ibe stationed there. Elandley and Cooper tried to arrest his pro-
gress in vain; and although he might have turned Li.vvrii Weymouth.
street, be continued, at a trotting pace, through the entire length of
Portland-place, en the foot pavement. Lord Beasich imp, who,
escorting some Ladies, was coming out from the French Ainhusa-
doe's house, desired the °Seers to prefer the present charge.
Betser, in his defence said, that he bad been driven on the pave-
ment by other carriages, and was anxious to preserve his equipage,.
which was worth five hundred guineas.
Mr. NVorrx—So, in your exertions to rescue the carriage Ina
horses, you thought nothing of the danger of those persons who
encountered them. It is my duty to fine you in the penalty of
forty shillings, and costs.
Betser, w lt6 was prepared for it, forthwith paid down 21.75. 6d.
including all demands.

C. C. Western, E-q. has Mel), had some Merino

Jones, the sailor boy, Reid, and Wallace. Jem Runts so to with
a powerful lung-armed black, a novice in the prize ring, and found
him a rough customer. Crawley, after thanking the company for
thtir pan onage, challenged to fight any man in Ragland, whites
was accepted on behalf of Ward, and the fight is to take place
within two months, en terms to be settled hereafter. A set-to
between Crawley and Ilakiwyn finished the cloy*, sport.
A battle was fought on l'hursd,y, at Cleaver, in presence of
nearly two thousand persons, between Wail of Wodmrtre, and Deye
of I)raycot, fur the trifling stake of 255. collected from the specta-
tors. After eighteen bard-fought rounds, in which great aren't%
and courage were displayed, Wall gave in, owing to a st;ain

LAMBETH STREET.

Yesterday. a young man named Felix was brought up on a war-
rant, to answer the complaint of an aged Egyptian hlahometan,
named Hassan, who charged him with t►e commission of an out-
rageous assault, the effects of which were very v Able, his face and
mustachios being clotted with blood, ana his turban also having its
proportion of gore. The co'uplainant, who it appears served under
the command of Sir Sydney Smith, at the siege of " St. Join
d'Acre," and from the testimonials be produced, and the wounds
he had received, appears to have distinguished himself, being first
sworn on the Koran, stated, through a female who wet:impaled
him as an interpretess, that he residedtio the same holes with the
defendant, who, on Tuesday morning, without any previous pro-
vocation on his part, struck him several times with a stick, and in-
' dieted the injuries he then bore the marks of.
The defendant attempted to palliate his conduct, by amercing
that Hassan first ',tuck him, and also his father, aid that it was
fir self-preservation altogether he acted as he did. Of this, ►ow-
ever, he produced no evidence, and was in consequence 'ordered
to find bail.

•
0 ,r Nor hero Critics seem disposed to do full justice
to the formidable rival of Sir WALTIII Sarre, who Inn lately ap.
peered in the person of Mr. 11011ACC Sutra'. In reviewing Ire
very clever novel. " 1111•18111.ETVIE 1101,151 r," the canto' /4 says,
0 With works like the present before us, we should cert.:hay he
better able to bear up under the loss to which we seemed doomed
for a season. The characters (like Sir Warren's), front the iii,;hest
to the lowest, have individuality. Their qualities, manner*, and
locals are distinctive and real ; some of them ate of the very highest
value. Grasso:46a Beverning will bear to be put even in competition
with Rebecca of Ivanhoe. Fur elevation of soul, and the extent of the
4aeriSces made (to friendship as well as to love), Constantas is, if
possible, the superior." The Reviewer acknowledges, also, that
" the character of &peening. the rich Burgomaster, is unique. So
'is that-of Wink/ Bose, though of a more humble kind. Charles Me
aged, Ilechesier; and several of the personages about the Court,
ate alto exhibited (some • them at full length), in a very able
manner ; but the second,.and on the strength of the trial-scene, we
bad almost said theftrst character in point of grandeur, is the of
Mrs. Walton, the sister of Cromwell. Well might our Author
make his hero declare, at the close of the work, that " he had in-
'variably found, in his progress through life, that all the more ex-
alted, heroical, and sublime instances of constancy, virtue, dish,.
terestedness, and self-devotedness, had been furnished by the female
_ _

sex." The Reviewer adds, " this is a good trait in the Author,"
and coocludas by saying, that " he has taste, humour, wit, and
good feeling, in almost equal proportions. Ile also display. exten-
sive reading and sound reflection ; SO that the man of the world,
the scholar, and the philanthropist, may all peruse this wuri► with
profit or pleasure."

NEW CORN•EXCHANGB DILL.

Sir E. KNATCHBULL moved that the Report of the New
Corn-Exchange Bill should be brought up.
Sir T BA BING opposed the motion. He could not allow the
_Bill to progress another stage without protesting against it: He
would move that the Report be brought up that day six months.
31r. HUME seconded the Hon. Baronet's motion. He thought
it very hard that a Joint Stock Company should deprive the ori-
Opal Proprietors of the premises, without building them another
Corn Exchange. If the present Corn-Exchange were too small,
he could have no objection to the erection of another, but undoubt-
edly the original should be allowed to remain.
Sir J. BRYDGES opposed the amendment, and hoped the
Report would be brought up immediately.
Mr. T. WILSON said the present Exchange was built by
merchants of corn under commission, and they therefore ought to
be allowed to enjoy the privileges of the Exchange, which they
would not be able to do If it were enlarged as the Bill intended,
because it would be then frequented by millers, jobbers, and corn-
ehandkrs. It had been stated that during the last ten or fifteen
years, the sale of corn had decreased, and he therefore contended
that there was no occasion for an enlarged Corn Market. The
whole tenor of the Bill was a speculation; if it were carried, they
would chute any sum they liked for the stands, and thereby gain
their ends.
ji -Ides It SUMNER said the original Exchange had been in the
pesetasion of a Joint Stock Company for 75 years, during which,
the population of London had increased; and with it the demand
•.,or corn. He therefore contended that it was requisite to enemas.

THE LATE MURDER IN MARY-LA-BONNE.

Mrs. Cooper obtained some rest on Sunday night,
and her wounds appear favourable; but the surgeon
thinks that the lower part of the ear, which was nearly
dissevered, will not unite.
Pollard, the murderer, was married, sixteen years
ago, to the daughter of a butcher in Mary-la-Bonne-
lane. He succeeded his father-in-law in business; but,
in consequence of his idle habits, he became insolvent,
and his wife died from the effects of his ill-treatment.—

Subsequently he married'a second wife, from whom he
has been separated eight years. In the interval he has
been leading a dissolute life, and has occasionally been
supplied by his wife with money. He has lived, how-
eier, with Mrs. Pilgrim two years, and she ooly sepa-
rated from him on the very night of the unfortunate
catastrophe. On that day, she says, she happened to
call upon her brother ( Mr. Cooper), who persuaded her
to separate herself from Pollard, and acting under his
advice, she wrote and sent the following letter to Pollard:
" Dsr►a Jissarsi—l think it my duty to inform you that I have
for a long time disapproved of the mode in which we have been
living, and have come to the determination to separate for ever.—
I therefore request that you win inunediately send me my clothes
to my brother's house.—Your's, " S. PILGRIM,"
Pollard's wife applied to Mr. Goodyer on Saturday,
and requested he would give up the body of her hus-
band, in.order that she might bury it on that day. Mr.
Goodyer told hrr that her request could not be com-
plied with ; and the poor woman retired.

In the old Roman Kalendar. the lucky days were
muted with Silver Letters : in Bun's Kalendar of Fortune they
are marked with Copilots of Gold, and in the propitious month of
April they have been marked with Showers of Gold; for in April
BUM sold ALL the. Prizes of 430,000! and having, in the past
year, .old Five Prizes of Thirty Thousand, and fuleven Prizes of
Twenty Thousand Pounds, it is not too much to presume that
BUM will sell, in the present April, at least Three or Four out of
the Six Prizes of Twenty Thousand Guineas, which must all be
drawn on Wzonesnar, the 3'l of May.
TRIAD MILLS—A practical contradict on of the al-
-1 leged hardships in the Surrey Houses of Correction oc-
curred at Guildford, on Saturday evening ; when one of
the lately-discharged inmates knocked at the gate, and
earnestly begged of the Governor to re-admit him to hi,
.old lodging and employ.

COMUITTZI 01 WAYS AND WEANS.

The House then went into a Committee of Ways and Means.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER begged
to remind the Committee that he bad, on a former
occasion, stated to the House that it was his intention
to fund eight or ni; e m llions of Exchequer Bills, with
the view of enabling Government to repay the advances
made by the Bank of England, and of diminishing the
number of Exchequer Bills in the market. In pursuance
of that resolution, which appeared to be well received,
he had last week sent a message to the Bank, announcing
the intentions of Government, and the terms on which
the contract would be made. He had informed the
Bank that Government would be ready to take money
or Exchequer Bills; the former at a premium of 10 per
cent. He had also thought it necessary to represent to
the parties, by way of inducement, that the New
4 per Cents. to be created. would not be reducible in
less than seven years. It was proposed that toe in-
terest should commence from The sth of April, aod-that
the dividends should belSaid on the 10th of October ;
also, that the interest en Exchequer Bills of 2d. per
cent= per diem should be current until the day on
which they are paid. This bonus it had been thought

QUEEN-SQUARE.

INFAMOUS CHARON or Roaamtv.---Yesterday, Eden Smith and
Mary Wardell, the young women who were charged with robbing
land maltreating Mr. John Harvey, of Dartmouth-street, on Satur-
day evening last, and who were remanded in the expectation of
meeting with three females, their acccompliees, came up for Anal
examination.

Speed, the watchman, stated, that be had watched for their ap
Sstance in vain. Handley, au officer, was called in to confront
eed, who had told this witness that he in reality did nut know
the women, and who denied, at the mine time, that he had ever
said otherwise. at the office.

Here the girl Wardell, who was weeping mist Wm*, mid dirt
her mother was dying, which afflicted bee moat; that, indeed,elle
was innocent of the charge; and that If plity, she should be wore
content to suffer for it.

Harvey now expressed his disinclination to prosecute, as she
mother of Ellen had applied to his feelings to forgiVe her; and
besides, as Wardell's mother had sent to him upon the subject.
Mr. 6 Sir, get into what scrape you please be
future, get even your head broken, if you like it, but I forewarn
you, in such an event, not to venture here to complain of it.
The prisoners were then discharged, the girl Wardle still pt.s
testing her innocence, and rejoicing in the prospect of seeing bat
mother.
