Conservative. There Were three Candidates

the son of the late member; and Mr.. Joseph
Surge, the celebrated anti-Slavcry and Chartst
advocate. From the moment 1t was announced

on the 4th of July, and progressed in from day 10
day Until the 10Th, when the Lord Chancellor an
nounced that certain questions would be pro.
pounded to the Judges, and the further proceed.

mtted that the Jury lists were traudulentiy
made up, and the opinion seems to be that the
counsel for the prisoners have made out so strong
case that the judgement will be reversed, but i,
appears that O'Connell has no hopes that the ap.
peal will be successful.

Addresses of an important character were also
made by Mr. Henry Grattan, NJ. p, and others.
