ST ^ S ^ y ' THE ELECTIONS . ( Continued from ike / Seventh Page " ) OLDHAM . The nomination took place Wednesday . The partisans of the several candidates mustered from all parts of the scattered borough in large numbers at an early hour . The number of squibs and addresses on the walls showed the activity of . the partisans in detracting from the merits of their respective opponents . To preserve order , 400 special constables were sworn in , and took up their position in front of the hustings . The muster of people was very great after the proceedings had commenced . Mr . Fox and hisfrienda eutered the hustings first , and was loudly cheered . Mr . Cobbettand Mr . Duncuft , the other candidate ? , came together upon the hustings , aud were each cheered by their friends . Previous to the commencement of the proceedings , some excitement was created by the Cobbett party hoiBting a stuffed fox with a placard printed " 2 ? o go" attached to it . The several candidates having been duly nominated proceeded to address the assembly . w ^^^^»^^^—___ ' _ — . —^«^^^—! 5 ™™ EI
Mr . Pox was received with applause by his own supporters , and by loud groans from the Cobbett party , whose supporters occupied the entire area of the main thoroughfare blose by the left of the hustings . He made an eloquent speech , claim ng to belong to the consistent party of decided Parliamentary and Financial Re ' ormers , and anti-Derbyite Free Traders . He bad not sought the constituency of Oldham , but that constituency had sought him , and now he was opposed not because be abandoned his principlesthey could not Bay that—but because some of his supporters in the borough had done certain things for which he was not at all responsible . He asked if it was right that a man should lie punished not for his own faults , but those of other people ? He had stood true to his principles , and there was nothing which he had professed in 1847 which ho had not adhered to . He had been a friend and champion of the Ten Hours Act . Hedetajledsomeof she means by which that measure was altered in various ways . He was
still opposed to all grants for religious endowments of any deecription , wishing to put all religionists on the same footing ; and advocated the principle that the duty of the state in regard to religion was that all religionists should keep the pence to each other . Ho had taken an active p art , along with Mr . Slaney , in regard to the formation of industrial and productive partnerships , commonly called partnerships en commandite , and in promoting the bill to sanction them . Alluding to the government of Lord l ) erby he said it was strong in Aristocratic support , and in the support of small boroughs , but stronger still in the divisiou which existed amongst Liberals . He was a friend , to the most unlimited ; extension ' of the Suffrage , which , under Josbph Hume ' s bill would give Oldham 13 , 650 vaters instead of 1 , 000 and odd . He termed the Administration of Lord Derby a Janus-faced government . After some eloquent observations , Mr . Fox re-tired amidst loud cheers from his supporters .
Mr . Duxcott was received with tremendous shouts from united Duncuft and Cobbett party . He said he stood before them with perfect confidence , because he knew them and they knew him . There was a cry from tho crowd , " Why should not the working man have a vote ? " He would not answer that . ( Loud cries of "Ah , ah , " and cheers . ) He concluded by an emphatic denunciation of the Anti-Corn Law League , which was interfering every where , and domineering over the electors in the different towns , which was received with loud laughter by the Fox party . Mr . Cobbeit then came forward , and spoke at great length , avowing himself a friend to the repeal of the Corn Laws , but contending that it should not have been carried until a very great reduction of taxation had taken place to make up the fall in the price of grain . He was a friend to the established chnrcb , and no friend to the voluntary Bystem . In regard to education , he entirely agreed with Mr . Duncuft , and was opposed to the views of Mr . Fox .
The party who supported the " secular" scheme did not understand the meaning of the werd , as their discussions showed . It was a wrong thing to attempt to give the poor education without also taking into account the moral elements of education as connected with the teaching of the Bible , lie then referred to the factory and Anti Corn Law Questions , insisting that on the former Mr . Fox was insincere , and that all his party were insincere in that matter , because the millowners and the large capitaltists had seized most occasion to oppress the poor and to overwork them . He said if the Factory Biii again came before the House of Commons , he would support the original ten hours proposition , and take away the half hour . A few questions were then put to the candidates , tho principal ones being whether they would support Annual Parliaments , Vote by Ballot , and Universal Suffrage . Mr . Fox aud Mr . Cobbett answered in tho affirmative . Mr . Duncuft said—I will wake no promises whatever . ( Loud ' groans on the part of the reformer ' s . )
A show of hands was then taken , which was decidedly in favour of Messrs . Duncuft and Cobbett , whose supporters united . , The Matob accordingly declared Mr . Duncuft and Mr . Cobbetfc had the election by show of hands , by a very large majority . , 6 Mr . J . CnEEiniM , on behalf of Mr . Fox , demanded a poll . Mr , Fox ' s supporters were much hustled on leaving the hustings , and were groaned at by the united Cobbett and Duncuft party .
MANCHESTER . The nominations took place on Wednesday morning , when four gentlemen were proposed . Mr . Bright and Mr . Gibson , the late members ; and Mr . George Loch and CaptainDenman , the "Protestant" candidates . The reception of the two former gentlemen , on their arrival at the hustings , in St . Ann ' s-square , was most enthusiastic , while their opponents were greeted chiefl y with hisses and groans . The Right Hon . T . M . Gibson , on presenting himself , was received with loud cheers , mingled with groans , whistling , &c , from the opposition side . He said , —Gentlemen , electors of Manchester , —We shall save time if you will give every gentleman a fair hearing . ( Confusion . ) I will not occupy you long ; but I am here as a matter of duty .
I think it would be a good plan that the candidate should present himself at a nomination with a bill hung before him , upon , which should be written all the questions for which he will vote . ( Cheers and laughter . ) If I had a placard hung round my neck , and before me , you would see written upon it , Extension of tho Suffrage —( cheers )—Vote by Ballot —( cheers)—equalisation of the representation , and a claim for the industrious and commercial classes of an equal share in the government of England with the territorial aristorcacy . ( Cheers . ) What is written upon the placard on the other side ? There is something about another world , but very little about this . I want to know what those gentlemen will vote for ? They eay they will vote ngainst the Ballot . They will support church rates . ( A Voice— " And guzzling . " ) I am obliged to touch
upon these subjects , because these gentlemen , under the name of Whigs , have come here in alliance with the Tones to turn us out of our seats . Are they Derbyites ? ( Cheers . ) Now , I ask is Free Trade safe ? I doubt it . If you—{ Continued interruption from the supporters of Messrs . Loch and Denman prevented the conclusion of the sentence . ) There seem to be a great many boys here , brought here to make a noise ; I suppose that is paid for . They are not electors of Manchester ; but a very few boys can make a disturbance that wiil prevent anybody from being heard . After some further observations ' , the candidate concluded amid much cheering . Mr . Bright was received with loud and enthusiastic cheers , as he assumed a position in the front part of the hustings ; Owing to a severe cold and hoarseness , and the noises of the crowd , he was not well able to make himself
heard . He said , we are m favour of reform , in favour of the progress which the people of Manchester have so lone supported ; and if returned , as I believe we shall be- ( loud cheersl-you will find us in the . coming Parliament just as manful , just asconsistent , just as faithful , just as resolved to maintain your interests and your principles , as we have oil !> r if fc tlmes ' \ i , erij and criea - ) I ask you , for the £ f ° L tf ™ 1 baitIe /' snd of a 11 y ° P ^ v ctories , ^ J J ™ } ° " ^ to - morrow and give those men vJnh » W yourprlnolple 8 ' t » e same triumphant success you have always given them before .

SIR JAMES GRAHAM PUT TO THE QUESTS In another column we have reported the is « ue « rn Carlisle election , by which it will be seen tb Si " '"Graham has been elected one of the r epresentatiS ft city .

Graham was sore hold the highest plnce in the next administration , itn desirable to ascertain his opinion on certain points to whk he had not alluded in his address to the meeting . Forti purpose he had drawn up certain questions to which het quired answers from the right hon . baionet . Sir J . Graham said that Dr . Lonsdale had put into !] hand four questions , to which he would reply wiaih . t first question was— "Would you in any future case , 1 ^ that of Hungary , where the liberties of one Stntcwere terfered with by another and despotic State ( lto ' w ) , your best to put an end to that interference and to resii :
as a violation of right ? " It was impossible for am * of freedom not to partici . ate in the aspirations afterfe dom in all foreign countries , aud he knew no limit tope tically aiding foreign countries in their endeavours to D rate themselves from the yoke of tyranny , exce [ 4 i | paramount obligation of not involving this country in 1 * on account of interference in affairs not our okd . I second question was— " Would you , in the case of aftfjl now despotically governed , throwing off tlieyokelijil own energies , and setting up a new governmettl n revolution of their own making , urgo tie M diat , e and full recognition of that govern * by ours ? " To this question he could give a p : ] tical answer . The great motto of Lord Grej ' s CT ment , in addition to reform and retrenchment , *» i
interference in the affairs of foreign countries . Acts accordance with this motto , Lord Grey's Gfti ment , following the example of their predecessors , |« nized the Goveramer . toi 1 / mis Philippe , whom surf had raised to the throne of France . Again , another teij tion separated Belgium from Holland , and nis into an independent kingdom and in that case ahol Grey ' s Government recognised the newly creat ed »« rity . Thirdl y , when Louis Philippe was expelled , « France by another revolution , and a republic e stabu in that country , the British Government aoknnoit * the new order of things—a course of which he en ' approved . The third question was—" Would you cp ; any measures—an extradition bill , recourse to letter c , ing , or the like—which could have for its object the res tion of the rights of refugees to find an asylum 11 " land , Bafe from aUesmonaee on the cart of our w
