The rewalia in the Tower, consisting of the Crowe
of EnglEngland,glod, the Sceptres, and the Globe which the
King olds in his hand at his Coronation, were re-
moved from the Jewel-office, on Tuesday, to the

Swann, Rsq. by Mr. Hearne, seconded by Captain Man-
dersoo ; Pascoe Urenfell, Esq. by the *Revd. Edward
Hodge, seconded by Mr. W. P. Williams.
The election has proceeded very slowly, much time
being ,occupied in objecting to votes and defending
them. Last evening the state of the poll was as fol-
lows:

Pascoe Grenfell, Esq. - - - - 41
Sir C. Hawking, Ham . . . - 31
Henry Swann, Esq.
As there are 321 t electors who will come to the poll,
the election will probably not close before Saturday.—
Only 73 voted yesterday. The election of Mr. Grenfell
is considered certain.

within!, on Pridav next. the 17th instant. We learn
that it Is intended, on tharneeasion, to propose an Ad-

Htun ('near or JUSTICIART.—On Wednesday the
Court met to pass sentence in the case of 'filbert M'Leod,
who had been found guilty of the charges of sedition
brought against him, but recommended by the Jury to
the leniency of the Court. The Lonl Justice Clerk pro-
nonnced sentence, which was to be transported beyond
seas for the space of five years; with the usual certifi-
cation.
Mr. Horr.—lt is still expected that Mr. Hunt will he
tried on Thursday, the Itith inst. and the Crown intends
to bring MO witnesses against him, whilst he also pur-
poses to call between 500 and 1000 in his favour.—(fork
Herald.)
Mr. Hunt's trial, with the trials of the other persons
implicated in the same charge, will commence at York
Inest Thursday, but when it will conclude it is difficult to
predict. as it appears, from unquestionable authority,
that not fewer than b 0 witnesses are subinenaerl on the
part of the Crown, from Manchester and its neighbour-
; hood: and it is probable that the witnesses for the de-
' fendants will amount to nearly twice that number. The
Attornev-tjeneral, it is understood, trill be at York.—

Burs. thr late 3lentbers, were re-elected fur Orampound.
It 41 understood that Mr. Leake and Mr. Ware, the
losing candidates, mean to petition against the return ;
-hut we have not learned whether they mean to allege
bribery end corruption aentinst their opponents.
Truro election began on Saturday. 'I here is no doubt
of Sir Hussey Vivistu biing rehitned. The late Mem-
bps published an address to the Capital Burgesses, in
*hick they announced their confidence of obtaining the
referrer.: shown them on a former occasion. Notwith-
standing this, one of them, Mr. Tomlin', finding he had
no chr ace of success, rift and ran, without taking leave.
We learn he has applied to the electors of the borough of
Christ-clonrdia, Hants, who, he hopes, will be more fa-
: vourahle to his pretensions. We learn that the Noble
Patron, finding he conkl not carry both seats, has re-
fused to have any thing to do with one, and that Lord
Fitzroy Somerset has canvassed on Me wen interest.
BOROVG nR DOC—The election for this borough took
place yesterday. The candidates were 31r. !Anion and
Mr. Spooner, irom Birmingham, in the Lawson interest.
and Mr. Dawkins and Captain Monday, in the interest
of the Duke of Newcastle. All the four candidates, we
understand. have gained their election! and have been
chaired arrorilingly.—This extraordinary success has
arisen out of the production of some disputed rotes on
the validity of which a Committee of the House of
Commons will have to decide.
