GENERAL ELECTION.

plause.)—He should be the list man in the world to us"
any influence upon the minds of the electors; be rested
for his support only in the integrity of his conduct, and
esteem in which he stood with his fellow-citisins. The
state of the poll teas much too flattering for him not to
feel more gratified than he could express. Ile had thought
himself sufficiently honoured on the first day, in being
placed second, but should they continue to the close
the high mark of favour they had shown him, by giving
his name the first place, he should consider it as an at:
ditional claim upon his gratitude, which was already
too much foE any language which be could emplo.—
(tbeers.)—This would be to him a farther stimulus, ••
any were wanting, towards a faithful and energetic di,
charge of his duty.
Mr. TilloTHT Crarts now attempted to obtain a hear
ing, but with as little success as on the two preceding
flays, and he was obliged to withdraw, amidst a torrent
of groans anti hisses, after pointing to the slate of the
poll, in token of superiority over the popular Candi-
dates. Fie seemed in the highest spirits, end assured
them, that the cause in which his father was espied
was a red dile, 'and would sacceld. He thanked
them in the name of his father for what they had doni.,
and hail no doubt that their exertions would at last pm.t
him at the head of the poll.
Alderman Worm then stood forward, and was receivel
with the usual applause. lie expressed exceeding regret
that any gentlemen should he denied a fair hearinr,
and if they would bear Ifr. Curtis be would must leit
tingly resign his place to him.—(Applause, and cries
no. no!)—There was here seine Interruptioa, proceed-
ing from a person who stood behind the worthy Alder-
man, upon which the latter said, that it was must ui:•
handsome fur the friends of the candidates who were
allowed to neropy the hustings, to be the first to make
attempts at interruption. Alderman Wood continued.
Ile had every reason to be satisfied with the state of the
poll, when lie considered, that on the first day's polling
in IaIS, be reckoned 2,1041 on his side
,wh the
highest number now, after three days pulling, was only
1,397. This showed that the electors were very slack .a
coming up, and as there still remained more than 6,01,1
voters unpolled, he had every reason to rely on their
exertions.—(('heers.)—lt was most painful to him to be
obliged to assure thrum, that when he had the honour
canvassing among them, he found a great many wli
said, that, however it was distressing to their feelings,
they could not come up to the poll it all! Niro .
whither this were or were not the case, or whether t
had been abseil by Hue influence of any candidate or nut.
one Haig was certain—that during the three first dim-, a
of this poll, WO persons less than in the corresponding
days of the last election had Toted.. He hail only now
to ask a continuance of their exertions; to say that no-
thing else was wanting once more to place him at the
head'of the pull ' and to declare, that if they again re-
turned him to Parliatnent, he would prove their true
and faithful servant.—(immense applause.)
The Loau Matron, in a few appropriate words, ex-
pressed his sincere acknowledgments fur the support Ist-
harl. received, and pledged himself, if retnraeil, to be al-
ways eeady to promote the interests of the City of Lon-
Jon. as well as those of,the empire at large.
Ur. Alderman Timer was the next candidata.mito
presented himself, Rod he was greeted with the warmest
acclamations from all parts of the Hall. Although.the
numbers were not so large as might be expected on the
third day of the election, still he felt most grateful for
the station which he himself held ; and he was the nsure
satisfied, because, as had been observed by his Worthy
Friend (Mr. Alderman Wood), so few of the electors
had polled. He knew that there were many of b s
friends, both in Westminster and the Borough, wilt.,
like those around him, were now employed in fiSetrnatt.

have done, he doubted not but that they would hasten
to his support, anti secure a triumphant results The
Worthy Alderman withdrew amidst repeated demoastra-
tions.oi applause.
Mr. Alderman WAITIIMAN expressed his regret at
all parties not bring heard, as it was only 'by ling
their advevssries that they could overcome them. it s
weapon was the weapon of argument, and by that atom
he hoped to obtain fair play. He was no At all AM-
maveri at the state of the poll, because he knew what
tenon-tee he hail vet to depend on; for he bait beeit
assured by many, that if they sate him in danger, ttieg
maid nut split their votes. He vegnested the Livery
not to be afraid, for they might rely on his Committee
doing their ditty, and he therefore hoped no person
would keep bark his vote, bat come forward Ili Gore.

publications. Auother instance of his sondect might be
taken from what he had done in the Clergy Bill. • He
knew that these tientlemen, in the 51 parishes, would
tease no stone unturned against him, because he hat

tientletnen who hail actually encouraged him to perse-
