OCT. 11. - In 0i Monday, a Common Hall v. as held at G uihihall, for the purpose of proceed:l;g to the electron ot font persons to represent the City of London in Parliament The business being opened in the usual form by Ilia SherillS, the Lord Mayer came forward, and solicited the sut- tra,c , z of the Livery, promising that it he should eejey the honour of bailie choseu cite of the lt eptcoeOtalives of tins great City, it would II he hi4study to nromOte the welrare of the commercial and shippilig 1 interests, to suporit tile constitution of the country, and to promote ; with assithtity the Mk:rests of his fellow citizens.

Mr. Al-!ereian Cemna, in annouueiog his application to he re- ; eleeteal, said his coviluat woold ever taeeuided by the same have ot in- depenitence, end a:ten! ioo to their interests, as had first gained: him I Lie eateein ao:I ;ippiobalicil of his fellow chi:cola. . • Sir lames -Shaw appealed to h:s conduct during the period in wh ich , he 11.3,1 lk h Moll: tot reprt•Se::!ta4 the City . in P it-ha:tient. He had I! a:ways manifested, hy his condo, t, how dear the e a ter:so; of Ilia coon. :i try, eed this City in partieidar, were to his heart. Should he be re- II elected, no tieirta on his part should be waotivr, to cent ilitte the saute : i Lee of conduct which lie hal hitherto putsued. i I 'sir. A Merman Vt - o(ad -aid, i.e came lero•ard es a new candidate, and il was sensible th a t as such he lay under material disadvantaaes. He had : bet canvassed for a single vote, because he wished uo vote which was : 1 n't given twin principle; he did net wish a vote from any man who !I did not approve of his principles. Ile hail been a constant ft irnd II to freedom, and his voice should ever be for ci vi l and religious liberty. i I Mr. Alderman Atkins said, that he would protect the privileges and maintain the dignity of the City.. Ile recollected with wide the I thanks which had so frequently been returned to him for t:ia services-' in suprorting the interests of hi 3 fellow citizens. He hal always been a friend to order, and the Coostittrion, but would never support Government against the interests of the City. Mr. Wahlunan said, his actions awl priecipkis were well known, a- d by them he must stand or to I. This was a day for examioation of the actions aeon principles of those who (tiered ihemselves as C::11d-- date', It was a day, however, which did not occur so town as it slnnild. He should take a review of the actions of his predecessors. He had read all their advertisements and declarations; from the.n it appeared thee were detei mined to support the Constitution, and in this tlry were all aereed. how tile!' did it kappen that he ha I been for !Daily )Pars at direct hostility with them on this very subject? Professions must go for nothing. We have seen our Constitution ruined, and seats in Parliament uttered iOr sale. The man who had proposed the disgraceful expedition to Wakheren was now at the head of the Government. for twenty years had he opposed those 'principles which had now brought the. nation to the brink of ruin. Had the many petitions against war, which he had presented, been aitendeol to, the torrents of blood that have been spilt, and Oa milli( ni of money that hive been expended, Would have been saved. It had been said that a shop-keeper was not fit to have a scat i i Parliament ;—he appealed to the electors whether this ought t 3 be' the case. lie had : been en-aged eighteen years in the public service without any reward. W ho could be more fit to represent the City of London than ore of its shopkeepers ? The respective Candidates were then nominated, and the spew of hands was greatest ler Sir W. Curtis, Alderman Wood, Alderman Combe, and Mr. Waithenan. On the nomination of Sir James Shaw and Alderman Atkins. there was a considerable display of hands; hut very inferior to the other tour. Previous to the commencement of the poll, the Lord Mayor expressed his determination to decline, • Monday a meeting of the Electors of Westminster, principally those who were instrumental in procuring the return of Sir Francis Burdett at the last election. was held at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, when after much discussion on the propriety of re-electing lord Cochrane, 01, account of the possibil:ty ot his being professionally engaged on f 'reign service, it was at hangth resolved that his Lonlship wad Sir Francis Burdett, weir proper persons to represent the City of West minster, and that they should he returned free of expence. A Com mittee was then appointed to carry the same into etlixt. Momlay the electicn for the "Bbrough of Southwark commenced, pursuant to requisition from the High 13ailill, •Sir Watkin The business being opened in the usual manner, Mr. Young, in an appropriate speech, proposi•d Henry Thrrnton, Esq. as one of their Representatives, which was seconded by Mi. Shaw, and received with great applause. Mr. S. ILIVIeN proposed Mr. Calvert, awl was seconded by Mr. Clarke; and Mr. llirsee Froposed Mr. Jones Bur dett, *Weil was seconded by Mr. Jukes. Mr. Thornton then came forward anti shortly addre sed the electors, in which he reta jtailated tke ckt-f acts of his political tile, since he had the honour ot hying ;heir Representative.
