      Huddkbs 7 iki , i > . —On Monday morning week , the gentry of the town assembled early , for the purpose of meeting their candidates at WakefieldL Carxiages and horsemen continued to leave the town for btctsI hours , amidst the cheers of namerons spectators . Late in the evening , great numbers assem * Wed on the Shore Head , to wait their return , and ¦ when the procession armed they were greeted with the most rapturous plaudit *—On Thursday morning week , the polling for the West Riding candidates ¦ eoninienoed in good earnest by both parties . Early in the morning a great number of vehicle * rolled in in different directions , whilst numbers of them began t © assemble in the Market Place , where the booths were erected . The most lively interest was evinced

      by the Don-eieotors , wh « formed themselves into small companies , when the respective merits of the four candidates were freely discussed . The general feeling was in favour of the Blues , in consequence of the treachery of the Whigs . As th « hour for polling approached , great numbers of electors marched into the town , with their respective colours , all confident of success . The largest procession was from Meltham , consisting of horsemen and carriages ef every variety . During the morning , Sir George Armytage arrived , followed by a numerous tenantry , bearing his coat of arms . The good old English feeling was richly exhibited in the smiling countenances of the whole tenantry , whose appearance w * 3 generally admired . Peace reiened triumphant .

      until a party of YellowB , on their way home , armed at Longroyd Bridge , when one of the party , named SamuefRamBden ( a man generally nnderthe patronage of the Whigs , when a little dirty work requires being done ) , commenced abasing all that came in his way , man , woman , and child . At length , a general cttack was made . A desperate struggle followed , the combatants using sticks and stones , which continued for a full hour . Baring the engagement the bridge was taken and retaken three or four times ; b * I > pilyj no T « T serious injury was sustained . The treat hero of the fight , we understand , was taken into custody . On Friday morning the polling was resumed , but the Whigs appeared as though they had not slept , so pallid were their cheeks . Daring

      the polling , a drunken voter of the name Of Paine , keeper of a beer-house , was brought up by the Yellows in a chaise , hot offered his rote to the Bines . As both parties claimed him , hi 3 vote was refused , in consequence of being drunk . About four o ' clock the Paddock bastile flag was seen in the streets , accompanied by a band , playing the tune of " Oh I dear , what e&n the matter be V This was followed by a great number of blue banners , oa which was inscribed a number of excellent mottos : the last one in the procession claimed the most attention ; it "was a black flag , with the following very ominous Inscription : —* The downfall of Whiggery ! the £ uuji k tuu icw minutes

      * w } uc u * o . xa a , no * a yellow card or ribbon was to be seen in the whole town . At the time this procession moved by the ¦ George Inn , an old woman had monnted a wooden ¦ tall , and addressed a vast multitude for ab » nt half an hoar , which created great animation , and kept the people in excellent humour . All remained peaceable , and after parading the streets for a short time , the people separated , and returned home , highly delighted with the expected retnrn of the Blue candidates . On Friday evening , a man was seen walking m the Btreets with a lanthorn and besom , -for the purpose of finding the Whigs , and destroying 11 yellow cards , lest they might get into Mr . Brook ' s dam , and choke it !

      Kkighlft . —The election proceedings here on last Thnrsday and Friday , passed off without anything remarkable . During the forenoon of the former day , numerous bodies of electors continued to arnte from the different townships , accompanied with music and banners , and other insignia , mostly yellow . The uperior display of this colour was in a great measure accounted for by the preponderating influence d Whig landlords and manufacturers in this part of the Riding . One thing , however , very evident in the tuidst of it was , that the popular spirit was dead to the interest of either party . The spectators snrteyei the procession will cold indifference ; and from beginning to ending , not one solitary voice cried * ( iod save Richard . " On the Friday evening , when ft was ascertained that the Blue party were triumphant , the ringers found their way into the

      belltihanber , and commenced ringing for the victors . Thi » having been previously forbidden by the rector , lie rnsbf d to the door of the belfry to stop the mischief , but all in vain ; the ringers haricg locked the door to prevent interruption , and his appeals for entrance were only answered by the peals of the bells . To make the poor gentleman ' s situation still wor&e , * crowd of boys and young men collected around him , and commenced ringing in his ears a variety « f new peals about Easter dues , which it 13 said has * o offended him that he declares he will now enforce them at allhszirds . A few instances bare occurred ef Whig man ufacmrers turning their weavers off for daring to express their indifference ab » Ht Whig sueeess , and several more have declared their determination to shut np shop altogether , rather than carry on business under a Blue Tory Government .

      KOXBtrBGH . —On Tuesday last , the nomination of candidates for the county of Roxburgh took place is Jedbnrgh . Every exertion wag made by both Whigs cod Tories to bring u many of their trapportera to the aomination as they eould , after it tcj known that the Chartists meant to nominate Mr . Jobs Fraser , of Edinburgh . Every village and hamlet in the county -was agitated by the different parties for supporters . The Whigs held out the tempting bait of a big loaf , parading the streets of H&vick with a large and Email loafthe Iaree one inscribed " Elliot * Loaf , " and the small ene " Scott ' s Loaf . " This , no doubt , had its effect on many ; still the Chartists continued firm is their resolution , and mustered in great numbers at Hawiek , on the Monday ereniny , aad after walking in procession ,

      Mx . Fraesr addressed them in the Market-place . At the conclusion of his address , the question was pat to the meeting whether they considered Mr . Frazsr a fit and proper person to represent the county in Parliament , when a whole forest of hands waa held up amid great cheeriisg . —Tuesday morning was wet and lowering , yet the Chartists turned ont in considerable numbers , aud m&rehed to Jedbnrgh , a distance of ten miles , where , by all the means which wealth enabled the factions to make use of , the numbers of people collected together was unprecedented on any similar occasion . A number of Chartists attended from Galashiels , Kelso , and other places in the county . Mr . Bell , of Hnnthill , iCrown Agent for Scotland , with a handsome alary ) , nominated the Hon . John E . Elliot , and Mr .

      Hurray , fanner , ascended him . Sir Q . Warrender nominated the Hon . Francis Scott , and Mr . Bailie , of Mellertam , seconded him ; Mr . Frazer was proposed by Mr . John Hsig , and seconded by Mi . WalUr Willan , both of Ha wick- The speeches of ttie Wnig and Tory movers and Beconfiera were of the common stamp , the one lauding and the other condemning the present Government and their plans for caring the evils under which the country is labouring ; and the speech of Mr F . Soott was & medley of the opinions of other men on the proposed measures , he all the time declining to give any opinion of his o-vn on the subject . Mr . EUiet was sot present Mr . Fr ? zer made a most effective speech , which was listened to throughout ¦ with the most profound attention by the immense multitude . He was in

      ttie centre of the hustings , the Whigs being on his right and the Tories on hia left , t « each of which he dealt tome home thrusts . On the show of hands being taken , file number * for Elliot and Fraser appeared nearly equal , Yery few being held up for Scott , and the Sheriff decided that Elliot had the majority in hia favour . Mr . Scott demanded a poll , and Mr . Frazer said that while he admitted the justice of the Sheriff ' s decision he declined going to the poll . Thus ended s ceremony which Will be long remembered on the Border , as the first lrbere ihe voice of the people and of truta was heard from the nomination bus tings in Jsdtrarjb . It "will not fce ths last , and although we did not succeed in carrying the show of bands , yet we are confident that an impression bai been made by Mr . Frazn ' s visit "which will result

      in good to the cause of freedom at no distant date . The polling dosed on Friday , -when Mi . Scott , taeBuccleuch nominee had a majority of S 3 , and of course carried the election . The polling commenced here at the usual tear on Thursday , and proceeded without interruption , aniall would have pissed quietly eff if it had not been for the brutal cendnet of the Edinburgh police , between twenty and thirty of whom had been brought into the town the previous night They were ordered to dear the inn yard , in front of which the polling booth was erected , and in doing bo , they struck with their heavy bludgeons all that came in their way . Several boyB were severely cut in the head ; they even struck them on the ground after knocking them down . f 7 ii « icrit&ted the people so much that none of the btQdgeon mei COUld ikow their f&ees in the streets * t tex , bnt kept snug within doors . After the poll had closed for the day , a strong party of the 4 th Bragosns

      came into the town at a rapid pace ; they had been about three miles off the night before , and remained in tbe inn yard till nine o ' clock , for what purpose nobody eould tell , as the town wai perfectly quiet . All parties agrte in deprecating this military interference , as there ¦ was not the least occasion either for them or the bludgeon men : there could not be a quieter election . A public meeting , called by the magistrates on the nquisition of a number « f the inhabitants was held on the Common Hough in the evening , Mr . Watson , eaief magistrate , in the chair , when a namber « C resolutions condemning the authorities for introducing the military , and authorising the magistrates to memorialise the Home Secretary , and take other steps to get the authors of the outrage punished , were mored by Walter Wilson , manufacturer , and seconded by the Bev- Gilbert Elliot , eoasrin to the Sari of Mis to . Tbe reeoftitiooa "were passed nnftnimwirip .

      LsiCESiBB ^ -The defeat the " Bloodies , " in their ' blustering attempt upon the representation of South Iteieetter&bite , baa been signalised , under some rather extraordinary circumstances , during the past week . The idea of disturbing Conservative possession of an igrjealtoral district , particularly with the cry of Corn I * - * Repeal , was , one would thiak , too insane to find an earnest reception is the mind of men of mtelliganca The manufacturer * of Leicester , however , did entertain 1 Kb a deceptive expectation , and , with the Mayor at

      their head , pat forth a defiance of the lauded interest , and after hunting about for candidate , actually entered the field , last Saturday , and nominated CoL Cheney and Mr . Qlsborne , ( the rejected otNawport , hie of Wight , ) against Halford and Pack * , ttw Tory Members in the l&te Parliament . Tbe CmU « -vmO wu densely crowded . The Chartists , in a firm phalanx , had possession of the central ground , la frsnt of the uniting * , first Next came up the Tories oa their left , and then the Whip , with abaad of about forty ruffians in white billy-cot bats , armed with bludgeons , on their right The billy . eoU exerted all their strength to break the central phalanx of Chartists ; but the appearance of Cooper and Bairstow upon tke hustings vU" *** d their seal , and after a hearty volley of cheers , and a significant

      beckoning as to where the danger lay , a stout and effectual stand was kept up against the Whig " billy-eoU " Final ! f , when the Tuffi&ns grew too impatient to 06 withheld from throwing the crowd into confusion , and made a desperate attempt on the centre , their bats were seised , and wen men flying and torn la all directions , and they were compelled to retreat After the nomination of the Tory and Whig candidates , Cooper and Bsirstow were also nominated as the Chartist candidates ; and when the show of hands was taken , the numbers were fully as much in their favour as in those of any of the other w 1 » rtw *— - The Sheriff , however , gave his decision in favour of the Whigs , and a poll was demanded by the Conservatives . The contest was

      a most miserable failure on the part * f the manufacturers . At the close of the first day ' s poll , the Mayor appeared on the portico of the Bell Hotel , aud actually blubbered like a ehild ! He has secured for himself , for life , the emphatic soubriquet of "weeping John , the first man in the borough . " Throughout the contest , the Chirtists openly and manfully avowed their determination to aid the Tories in preference to the Wbigs . The policy commenced at Nottingham , has thus been consistently maintained by the men of the Midland Counties , te the close of the struggls ; and in spite of all the calumnies of their enemies , the men of Leicester , Lougbborough , and Nottingham , confidently rely on the future to prove the correctness of their foresight , and tj produce a harvest of advantage to Coartisai .

      Dublik . —Th « foUowingplacard was freely circulated during the City contest by Mr . Patrick O'Higgins : — " City of Dublin Election . —Patrick O"Higgins , of No . 14 , North Anne- * tre » t , will vote at the present election for Messrs . O'ConneU and Hutton , profited tbst they give him a pledge in writing , that they will support no administration but one , that will give Its official advocacy to the great and paranrant measures of Universal Suffrage , Vote by Ballot , Annual Parliaments , Equal Representation . No Property Qualincv tion , and Payment of Members of Parliament for their time and services . —Dated July 5 th , 1841 . " Mr . O'Higgins obtained thirty signatures to this document ; all of whom stood true to it . The parish priest of Ann-street took it to O'Doubleface who refused to sign , aud so lost the thirty votes . This is doing business in the right way . ^ ^^^^

      VORKSH 1 BE SPRING ASSIZES . ( Continued from our sixth page . ) CROWN COUKT—Wednesday , Jblt H . ( Before Mr . Justice Wightman . J SHEEP STEALING . Wm . Walton , 37 , was charged with having on the 24 th of April , at Greasbro , ' stolen an ewe sheep , the property of — Jackwn . Mr . Pashlet was for the prosecution ; the prisoner was undefended . The prosecutor is a farmer residing in the parish of Greasbro . ' The prisoner was a mechanic , and lived at Old Holland about 500 or 600 yards from a field in the occupation of Mr . John Hawley , where the sheep were depasturing at the time the offence was committed . Mr . Jackson agisted twenty-two sheep in this field , and on the 23 d and 24 th of April , they were Been in the field , but on the following

      morning , one was missing . On the 25 th , the contables of Rotherh&m and Kimbarworth Bearohed she prisoner ' s honse , and in the garret found the prosecutor ' s sheep in a sack with the skin on , and ihe sack wa 3 covered over with bed clothes . The prisoner told one of the constables that he had found the sheep that morning abaat six o ' clock , but not being able to carry it home himself , he got his wife to assist him . The prisoner ' s shoes were taken off and compared with the feetmarks in the field , and those leading from the field to the prisoner ' s house , and they corresponded exactly . There was also a considerable quantity of blood . A knife was found in the prisoner ' s house with marks of blood and grease upon it , as if it hvl been recently used . The prisoner ' s defence agreed with the statement he . made to the constable . Guilty .

      MANSLAUGHTER . John SyJcet , 26 " . was charged with the manslaughter of Johu Kadcliffe , at Halifax . Sir Gre » ost Lewis zni Mr . Hall appeared for the prosecution ; aud Mr . NY ilkins for the prisoner . Sir G . Lewis very briefly stated the case . The deceased an ! the prisoner were fighting , and the deceased had a poker in his hand . The question was whether the prisoner had taken the poker out of the deceased ' s hand , and , by giving him sundry blows on the head with it , had caused his death . It appeared , from the evidence of Mr . Robertshaw , surgeon , thst when he was called upon to attend the deceased , be found some wounds on his head , and that , in his opinion , the immediate cause of death resulted from erysipelas , and the erysipelas was caused by the wounds . He ordered the deceased to keep still ; but he had not done so , and it was probable that if he had kept still , and had not taken

      drink , that erysipelas would not have supervened . The erysipelas began with the wound at the back of the head . It also appeared , from the statement of the other witnesses , that on Saturday night , the 8 tb of May , several persons met near the canal at Sowahy Bridge , among whom were the prisoner and ( he deceased , when a quarrel took place , and the deceased struck prisoner with a poker . The prisoner took the poker from him , and struck him several times . . Sykes also knocked the deceased down , and kicked him , apparently , several times on the head . The deceased was shewn to be in a perfect state of fury before the fight took place , he having fought with another man , and , according to the statement of one of the witnesses , the deceased ' s hair at the back of his head was wet and Btiff before the fight with the prisoner took place , but she could not say whether it was blood oi not .

      Mr . Wixkiws addressed the jury for the prisoner , contending that the case was so full of doubt , that they could not convict the prisoner . The jury , without hesitation , found the prisoner not guilty .

      BOBBERY . George Burkinshaw , 32 , was charged with having on the 19 th of November last , at Sheffield , stolen from the Royal Hotel , in thfl oecup&tion of William Travis , £ 29 in gold , silver , and copper , and an accountable receipt of the Sheffield bank , for the sum of £ 100 , the property of Wm . Travi 3 . Mr . Heatok and Mr . Pickkrtkg were for the prosecution , and Sir . G . Lewin and Mr . Wilkins appeared for the prisoner . The prosecutors in this case were a society , called the M Norfolk Sick Society . " It was instituted by poor persons , their object being to contribute monthly small sums of money , in order to provide for their necessities in sickness and old age . The prisoner was a member of this society ,

      which was established at Sheffield , and its meetings were held at the house of 5 lr . Travis . In July , 1840 , tfie prisoner was elected president of the society for the year ensuing . Among the persons elected to other offices at the same time was Thomas Best , who wa 3 appointed the senior warden , and who is now the president . By the rules of the society , meetings are held on the first Monday in every month , and a box was provided , in which -was deposited tbe books and various other property belonging to the society , and that box was placed in a room in the house , &ad vr&s kept locked with three locks , the keys belonging to which differed from one another . One of the keys was kept by the president , and each of the others by the senior

      and junior wardens . By the rules all the monies had to be deposited in the box , and only certain portions of the money were left in the hands of the president , who paid what was necessary to those members who had claims on the Bociety during the ensuing month . No money could be deposited in or taken out of the box except in the presence of the president , the two wardens , aud two of the members called assistants . A meeting of the society was held on Monday the 2 nd of May , and on that occasion the sum of £ 13 S 3 . 7 d . was deposited in the box as that evening ' s receipt . There was in the box besides this the sum of £ 14 6 s . 7 d ., and an accountable receipt which -mis given by the bwk of Paikei , Shore , & Co . . With regard to this doenment the custom

      appears to be this : —when a person deposits money in the bank , he receives a receipt as an acknowledgeme&t for deposit , but before he can receive the money out of the bank , he has to present the receipt , and after it is to presented , the endorsement of other parties has to be placed upon it . There was also in the box three small sums of money belonging to three of the members . On tht 4 th of November the ? ri soner took a locksmith named Knowlson to Mr . ' ravis ' B house , to take two of the locks from the box , in order that keys might be made for them , as he said he had lost them . Knosvlson took the locks off , and the prisoner hung on another lock which he fastened . The contents of the box were afterwards missing , and on the 19 ih of

      November a person named John Ibbetson met the prisoner in the street and a person named BelL The prisoner asked Ibbetson to go to the bank to obtain the £ 100 but he refused . After some conversation , however , h » agreed to go to the bank on the following day . The prisoner then represented himself to Be the president of the society , and the other two persons as the senior and junior wardens , thereby getting possession of the money , and an indorsment on the receipt was made by the parties in question . Sir GiEGOEY Lewis took t *« objection to the case proceeding on the ground that his Learned Friend had opened the case as a partnership which existed among the members , and he apprehended that a man conld not steal his own money . The society was not enrolled under the act .

      Mr . Hkatohwm heard in reply , and The Jodgb decided that the case should proceed , After all the evidence had been heard , Sir Gkegobx Lewis raised an objeetura as fatal to tbe ease that the receipt eould not be called a valuable receipt as a pat of it was torn off . The Judge was of the same opinion , and after SirG . Lbwih had made a few remarks to the The Jttok stated it as his opinion that the indictment had failed , inasmuch as it did not sufficiently appear that the money was in the possession of Travis so as to entitle him to prosecute . Tbe Jury found the prisoner Not Guilty .

      JTOBGEBT . Joseph Parker , 46 , was charged with having , on tbe 30 th of January last , at Hudderafield , ottered a forged Bill of Exchange , purporting to be drawn by Wm . Yates , for the payment of 419 6 a . 6 d ., with intent to defraud Henry Hirst and his partners . Sir G . Lewin and Mr . Wasnet appeared for the prosecution ; the prisoner was undefended . On the day in question , the prisoner went to the warehouse of Messrs . Hirst and Co ., in Huddersfield , and there asked to purchase some fancy goods . They had some conservation together ; and certain goods , to the amount of £ 2 * 0 a . Id ., were set apart for him . The prisoner went away for a short time , and then came back to pay for the goods . He

      presented a Bill for £ 11 6 s . 6 d ., signed by William Yates , of Cleckheaton , and the prisoner put his name ( Joseph Parker ) at the back of the bill . He was asked did he mean the Mr . Yates who was the manufacturer , and he said yes . The prosecutors then took the bill in payment for the goods , but in a short time afterwards the bill was returned to them by William Yates , who denied all knowledge of it . The prisoner was therefore taken into custody . There was another person named Yates , a labouring man , residing at Cleckheaton , and he likewise denied that he had given the prisoner any such bill . Guilty . James Shuie ( 68 ) wa 9 charged with having on the 1 st instant , at Gargrave , stabbed John Brownies , with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm . —

      Mr . "Wassky was for the prosecution . The prisoner was undefended . The prosecutor is ft vender of spectacles , and on the 1 st instant he was at a public house at Gargrave , where he saw the prisoner . Th » prosecutor is an Irishman , and the prisoner made some insulting remarks to him about his country , when an altercation took place , which led to the prisoner being turned out by the landlord . When the prosecutor left the house , soon afterwards , he met the prisoner , who threatened to kill him , he having a knife in his hand at tbe time . Prosecutor knocked him down twice , and just before he went into his lodgings the prisoner came up to him and stabbed him severely on the left breast . It appeared that tbe prisoner was a native of Hamburgh , and had been a Boldier . —Guilty .

      8 TAB 1 IHO . Samwl fre ! der 25 , was charged with having , on the 1 st of May last , at Leeds , stabbed Matthew Thackray Kirby , with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm . Sir Gregory Lewih was for the prosecution , and Mr . Wilkins for the defence . Sir G . Lewin stated that he did not think that , in this case , it would amount to more than a common assault . He understood that the prisoner was willing to plead guilty to the assault , and he thought he would be justified in not pressing the more serious charge . The prisoner then pleaded guilty to the assault .

      8 TABBINO . Ely Hopkinson , 17 , was charged with having , on the 86 th of June , at Clifton , stabbed Daniel Walker . Mr . Wasney and Mr . Athebton conducted the prosecution , and Mr . Wilkins defended the prisoner . Oa the day in question , the prosecutor had a quarrel with the prisoner ' s brother ; and shortly afterwards the prisoner came np , and after using a threat , stabbed the prosecutor in the lower part of the abdomen , so that part of the bowels protruded through the wound . Guilty , with a recommendation to mercy . Sentence deferred . The Court rose about five o ' clock .

      NOMINATION OF CANDIDATES The nomination of candidates for the representation of this connty was fixed for Monday by the High Sheriff , James Barry , Esq .. From , an early tour the passages to the Court House we * e densely tided . Sh > rtiy before t welve o ' clock , Mr . Leader appeared on the hustings with his proposer and seconder , and a few friends , and shortly after was followed by Mr . G . S . Barry and Mr . E . 3 . Ro « he and their friends , or more properly speaking the friends of the latter , for in respect to friends the " ~ auld Member" was , like " the last rose of summer , left weeping alone . " Immediately after these gentlemen , the High Sheriff and his Sub , Mr . William Johnson ,, and Major Brownrigg , R . M ., and Mr . Gore Joaes , R . M ., appeared . After a great deal of crushing and thumping , squeezing and screeching , cries of silence and yells , _ _

      The Sub-Sheriff read the precept for holding the Election . The High-Sheriff , calling silence , proclaimed that the County Electors , by virtue of the , writ they had beard read , were entitled to put Candidates in nomination for the representation of the County of Cork in Parliament . —( Yells . ) Mr , Barry , ex-memher , then presented himself before them , for the purpose of announcing , and they might rest assured he did so with regret —( here * tear was seen to trickle , down his . cheek )—th&t he was retiring from the honour of being a candidate for the representation of this great county in the next Parliament . ( Load cheering . ) Circumstances had lately arisen rendering that necessary . ( A Voice— " That's very , very bad treatment , indeed . " )

      These circumstances were the temporary defaat of Ireland ' s Liberator , and he did bo to mako a demonstration in his favour , and shew his political opponents that O'Coonell was still dear to the people of Ireland . ( Shouts . ) They knew it was the only recompense they could make him for bis defeat —they all knew that it was unnecesssry for him to pass a panegyric or eulogium upon him , and he would therefore conclude , by Baying , that though it was one of the greatest honours to which he could aspire , the representing of his native county in Parliament , so it was the greatest compliment that could be paid him to request him to retire in favour of Mr . O'Connell . ( Here his eyes again filled with tears , and his utterance became choked , strongly evidencing that the unfortunate gentleman was forced to Bpeak

      against his feelings . ) He should conclude by proposing Daniel O'ConneU , Esq ., as a fit—( here he had again to pause while struggling with hia feelings)—and proper person to represent this great count j xa . Parliament . ( Great yelling . ) Mr . Beamish , ex-Member for the city , rose and was met with great uproar . He called upon them for a moment ' s attention . ( Yelling . ) He was called upon , by the electors of the county of Cork —( a voice , " now many Y ' y-to second the nomination of Ireland ' s Liberator . ( Yells . ) He looked upon the present juncture of affairs as all important , and as calling upon them to have as a representative for the

      largest county in Ireland him whom a temporary defeat alone—the decisisn of an adverse assessor , bat which a Committee of the House of Commons would settle , as it had settled the non-resident freemen in this city , would rectify . Daniel O'ConneU now came forward , invited by the county of Cork , and he ( Mr . B . ) was proud he came forward to solicit their suffrages , for whom a man had given , way that had faithfully and diligently executed his duties as their Member wince 1832 . He seconded the nomination . Mr . Roche was th « n nominated by Mr . Clancey , of Charleville , and seconded by Mr . J . E . McCarthy , of Raddone .

      MERTH YU TYDV 1 L ELECTION . Tuesday last having been appointed for theDomination of a fit and proper person to serve the office of a burgees in the new Parliament , the town was all alive at an early hour . Sir J . J . Guest , the ex-member and Whig candidate , was proposed and seconded by Messrs . Crawshay and James . Mr . Argust then proposed Mr . Morgan Williams as a candidate ( tremendous cheering and stamping of feet and indeed more than once it was expected that the frail tenement in which they were assembled would come down to the ground . ) Mr . Henry Thomas seconded the nomination . The Returning Officer then put it to a show of hands ; but he declared that he could not undertake to decide which party had it . A second show of hands was then taken , and the Returning Officer declared it to be in favour of Mr . Morgan Williams . ( Tremendous cheering . )

      Mr . David James then demanded a poll , which the returning officer appointed to take place next day at eight in the morning , to close at four in the afternoon . Some conversation then took place , and the rnturnng officer adjourned the court to a field , in whu ; h hustings had been elected . No sooner had the hustings been taken possession of by the parties than the field w * s filled with people . The meoting was addsessed briefly by Messrs . Guest and Crawshay . Mr . Morgan Williams then came forward , and addressed the assembly , at great length , first in English and then in Welsh . He said that at a former election he had supported in the strongest manner Sir J . Guest , while he was opposed by that

      very Mr . Crawshay who now supported him ; but he ( Mr . W . ) now opposed him because he saw that he was not what he had professed to be—the friend of the people . Ho was the supporter of a Governmeat which had not offered them any of those so called blessings which they now held out , until the eleventh hour , when they saw that they were about to lose their places , and were prepared even to go the length of doing what one of their own associates , Lord Melbourne , called an act of madness , throw this country on foreign nations for the means of getttng its daily bread , 90 that if we were to quarrel with them we must be starved for want of that bread which we had forced our own farmers to give over growing for want of a market . A great

      boast had been made about their intention of giving cheap bread to the working man , but what did cheap bread mean ! Why , cheap bread means cheap labour ; that was to say , that theywould first reduce the price of bread by admitting the corn of the foreigner at a low duty , and then they would lower the wages of the workmen to meet the lowered price of corn , for every one knew that the price of labour was regulated by the price of corn . Now , with respect to this very measure of a filed duty of 8 < j ., Sir J . Guest said he was willing to give his full support to the Government , and consequently was in favour of an 8 i . duty , while his proposer ( Mr . Crawfrbay ) wasfor nothing less than anabsolute free trade . There was consistency ! As to free trade , that was all a fallacy , if intended as a benefit . He would tell them what free trade was . The French made

      glove ? , which could be sold in London at a cheaper rate than the English could do it , and the consequence was that the English glovers were starving , while the French were well employed . Tc > be sure , instead of giving them the means of maintaining themselves by konest labour , they offered them the meroies of the New Poor Law , and the starvation Union workhouses , ( Loud groans . ) ' The Government , instead of diainishing the taxes that ground the poor workman to the dust , actually increased them , and were now going to levy a tax on bread , that they might bave money to cover a deficiency in the revenue , caused by their own bad conduct and incapacity . He frequently referred to » paper wkioh

      he held in his haad , ia support of his proposition * , and he was- loudly cheered throughout his address . In the middle of his speeoh , hwwever , the crowd was seized with a panic , occasioned , as- it was supposed , by some One throwing a stone , which it was feared would lead to a serioue disturbance . However , all passed off quiotly . Ms . Morgan Williams called on them to be peaceaWj , for if they were not 90 it would belaid to-nirn . This produced an evident effect on them . He commented in severe tesms on the readiness of the Whigs to promise ,, but their utter disregard o 2 their promises when * they had obtained their purpose . He was much cheered .

      Mr . Morgan Williams being then asked' whether he intended to go to the poll , said he did not . Hhe Returning Officer then declared Sir J . Guest duly elected , and the meeting separated ,, the Chartista rejoicing as from a victory , and tbe Whigs annoyed at being bearded and hissed , and at being disturbed in the " even tenor of their way >" If is with pleasure that we do the Returning Officer the justice to say that ho did his duty in the most fair and impartial manner , and wa » evidently actuated by an intense anxiety to give satisfaction to all parties , which seemed a very difficult matter whore there was so much violence and party feeling displayed , but we have heard since that all parties were perfectly satisfied with his conduct ,, and were convinced that he wished to act in the very spirit of the solemn oath he bad just taken . —Wehhpaper .

      FBOM OWK LONDON CORRESPONDENT . Thursday Eveainff , July 15 . The ciRctatsTANCE of damp , rainy , and disagreeable weather , which we in London have experienced for the last ten days , appears to- have a most narcotic influence over politics and politicians , for there is really nothing to do , or doing . You only bear the grumblings of poor Whiglings , who have now made a most wondrous discovery—namely , that the Ballftt is the grand panacea for all their troubles , those troubles being loss of place , power , and overbearing tyranny . I will merely give you one instance of their < the Whigs ) utter contempt of the people , though I have a number of cases at hand to prove more and worse aotionB . There is , in this metropolis , one Mr .

      Benjamin Armstrong , a Whig made magistrate of the oounty . This fellow has a number of small houses , which he farms , or compounds for ; all these houses give the right of suffrage to the inhabitants , or occupiers , upon the rates being paid . Well , to prevent their having votes , this good Whigiing lets the rates remain unpaid , and the poor people be distrained upon for taxes which he ought to pay , and at the same time , he states he is a Liberal , though depriving men of their votes . But it is all of a piece with mouth reformers , when they have the workies under them—no chance will be allowed to them ( the workies ) of exerciBine their vote , though they have the educational and brick qualification ; and Whigs and Liberals are in favour of such a qualification .

      Towee Hamlets—A registration committee has bees formed , which is working well , and will , before long , relieve the borough from the presence of the Whig Fox . The Police record of the week gives us a pretty proof how far justice is dispensed in this metropolis , for you will find Honourable Captains and scions of nobility getting clear , because policemen are not to be believed , when giving evidence against them , though a word against any poor wight , is sure to be taken , and have full weight for their imprisonment .
