CARLOW ELECTION.

The proceedings of the radicals at the Carlow election will be
read with indignation, but without surprise, as transactions' of
this kind have, unfortunately, become too characteristic of our
country to excite any wonder. The priests were, as usual, at
the head and tail of the confusion. When the reports of the
conduct of these gentlemen reach London they cannot but have
a strong effect upon public opinion ; and even the House of
Commons, .radical as it is, must learn to respect and appreciate,
at their true value, the candidates for such favours as the Car-
low mob and priesthood have it in their power to confer.
Op the whole—and considering the violence and intimidation
resorted to to keep the voters for the conservative candidates
froth coming to the poll—the result is so far satisfactory. It is true
that at the close of the day there appeared a majority of seven
against Colonel Bruen and Mr. Kavanagh, but that which is
achieved by trick may be defeated by fair dealing. Had the
polling gone on in regular rotation, the parties would have
stool equal at its close. In fact, the short-lived majority is
readily accounted for. The radical party, by favour of the
elm:ices, had won the first tally; and by the accident of "time
and the hour," were lucky in having the last also. The clock
struck six, and, of course, the polling closed ere the conserva-
tive tally could vote. Thus, five votes came short on the side of
'Messrs. Bruen and Kavanagh. Two Roman Catholic free-
holders who had promised their landlords, and were sent up on
one of Colonel Bruen's tallys, bolted, whether from the terror of
their priest, or the intimidation of the mob, does not appear.
But this slight advantage affords no omen of final success to the
radicals,—for, if properly protected to the hustings, there can-
not be a doubt that the friends of conservatism and peace have,
ere this, turned the scale of victory, and will preserve their ad-
vantage to the end.

TUESDAY.
The polling commenced this morning at nine o'clock, and
there is an intense party feeling prevailing thrOughout the
town. Large bodies of the clragoous are patrolling- the-town;
and others are marching in with some of the conservative can-
didates' voters. One dragoon, who was attempting to clear
the street leading to the court-house, was struck a violent blow
with a stone, and knocked off his horse. He did not, however,
receive much injury, and the man who threw ;t was taken into
rustody. I fear very much, from the desperation of the people,
that some violence may be resorted to before the close of the
election. The mob are excited, and any person who is sup-
posed to be in the interest of the conservatives is followed and
insulted. One person who was thus followed presented a pistol
to the crowd. He was instantly struck with a stone, and then
conveyed to prison by some military, who happened to come
up. I saw several bodies of the peasantry driving in from
Leighlin-bridge, accompanied by their clergymen. They were
cheering, and carrying green boughs. The freeholders are
polling very quickly, but both parties administer the bribery
oath to each other.

(From our own correspondent )
The state of the poll at three o'clock yesterday was
Vigors and Raphael 139
Bruen and Kavanagh l'2l
Leaving a majority, at that hour, in favour of Raphael and
Vigors of 18. This was owing to Mr. Murphy, the counsel for
the radicals, having won the toss for polling the two first tallies
of five each; but as the day advanced, notwithstanding that
every delay was given by the council and agents for Vigois and
Raphael, their majority began to decrease, and were it not that,
by a trick of Mr. Murphy's, having gained the pollin of the
last tallies in each booth, Bruen and Kavanagh would have
had a majority on the day's poll of 33; but as Raphael and
Vigors polled a tally each in the four booths, it gave them a
majority on the day's poll of seven; the numbers polled being—
Bruen and Kavanagh 207

Raphael and %rigors 2ll
It would be impossible to give anything like an adequate de-
scription of the state of excitement which prevails here. There
was a dreadful fight yesterday in which several persons were
dangerously wounded on each side—many respectable persons
to whom I was speaking here complain of the apathy of the
authorities. - •
There are many very respectable catholic families in this
bOunty whom O'ContielLgOt posted' up at the Corn-Exchange frit-
having voted for Bi'uen and Kavanagh at the last election, who
are now afraid to come in to vote; if they remain back the cod-
test is doubtful, but this is certain, that if left to the exercise of
their franchise they would vote for the resident gentlemen of
the county. If Vigors and Raphael should be returned, it would
be impossible that they could keep their seats, as many voters
ivill declare upon oath, that they could hot with safety io their
lives or property 'come in to exercise their rights of franchise:
but notwithstanding all this the cousei vatives say that they are
certain of success.
The military and police are now parading the streets, and the
mob is shouting and yelling in the most dreadful manner. Any
stranger with a good coat is taken for a partiian of Bruen and
Kavanagh, and is groaned and shouted at as he' passes through
the itreets.—Dublin. Evening Mail.

We understand that Mr. Oswald, of Auchincruive, has in
consequence of indisposition, found it necessary to resign his
seat fur Aryshite. Some time ago we mentioned, that, ►n the
event of a vacancy occurring, the important county of Ayr wou id
be contested by a conservative, and we are happy to learn that
Sir John Cathcart, of Carlton, wilt conic forward on that interest.
