conservative candidates, have been this day re-elected council-
lors of this borough.

GUILDFORD, Nov. 1.

The conservatives of this town obtained another triumph to-
day, on the occasion of an election of four members of the
town-council, the numbers at the close of the pull being as fol-
loss:

. -
CoNsaavaTtvEs.—Mr. Palmer, 198; Mr. W. Lockwood,
183; Mr. W. King, 173 ; Mr. W. 11. Slater, 172.
WHIG-RA DICA LS.—Mr. Nichols, 116; Mr. Filmer, 102;
Mr. C. Foster, 92; Mr. G. Austen, 86.
Messrs. Palmer and Slater were conservative members of the
town-council, and have been re-elected, while the only two ra-
dical members of that bOdy have been rejected. The whole of
the four conservatives who are now elected, were members of the
old corporation previous to the municipal reform act.

DOVER, Nov. 1.
At oar municipal election, held this day, the conservatives
have nobly done their duty, notwithstanding the utmost exer-
tions and influence used by some of the government officers,
particularly one of the principals of the ordnance department,
in favour of the self-styled liberal candidates; and this, too, in
the.face'of the investigation instituted by the governtneni itself
after the last municipal election, into the conduct of some of
their officers here who were charged with undue influence on
behalf of the then conservative candidates, but of which they
were honourably acquitted. It remains to be seen whether the
same inquiry will now be made. The result of the election is
as•follows": . •
CASTLE WARD.--Mr. William Moroll, (cortservotiye,) 141;
Mr. G. El. Loud, (conservative,) 143; Mr. Edward Knocker,
(radical,) 125; Mr. James Walker, (radical,) 113.
TOWN WARM—Mr. W. H. Pavn, (moderate,) 190; Mr.
John Porbrooke, (conservative,) 169; Mr. J. A. Walker, (ra-
dical,) 166; Mr. Robert Barton, (conservative,) 144.
I PIER WAnn.—Mt. Daniel Nazer, (conservative,) 161 ; Mr.
Edward Seward, (conservative.) 156 ; Mr. Thomas Birch,
(ra-
dical,) 143; Mr. James Worsfuld, (radical,) 130.

COLCHESTER, Nov. 1.

The Conservative cause is triumphant in our town. The
whole of the Candidates elected as Councillors are Conserva-
tives. We have three wards, and there were two to be elected
for each ward. The following is the poll:
. FIRST WARD.—Cooke, 293; Smith, 266; Brown, 212;
Havens, 177.
SECOND WARD.—Mills, 202; Grimwood, 200; Scott, 145;

TEWKESBURY, Nov. 1.
At the election of Town-councillois, this day, the Conserva-
tives nominated were,—T. Vernon, N. Chandler, W. Moore,
and H. Brydes. The Whigs proposed for re-election the four
individuals win) had just retired from the Council,—viz., W.
Skeavington, M. Martin, J. Smith, and G. Watson. And at
the close of the poll, at four o'clock, the numbers stood thus :
Moore, 146; Vernon, 111; Chandler, 114; Brydges, 142;
Martin, 141 • Watson, 141 • Smith, 138; Skeavington, 125.
In Decem:ber last, the "Whigs succeeded in returning all they
nominated, whilst the Conservative who was highest on the
poll stood 37 under the lowest of the 12 persons who were elect-
ed. In July last, each party nominated two, when the Conser-
vatives succeeded in returning both their friends.
From the termination of the above contest, it appears, that
the Town-council is now equally divided,—there being eight
Conservative Councillors and eight Whigs.
