The pro ceedings were under the 14th and 15th Viet, c. 105, which sub jects suon onence to tnree montns Imprisonment, it appeared that in April last Mr.

Howard, tbe clerk of the guardians, appointed two persons (Messrs.

F. W. Fleck, of 6, Kitaford-place, Hackney-road, ssid thst shortly before the election in April last, Mr.

Ashford, the defendant told him that some of the guardians wished him to solicit votes for them, and he agreed to give witness 5 for so doing and he was to employ men, and to send a man sfter each of the regular collectors with a handbill, soliciting votes for the guardians, and Mr. Ashford told witness to do his best, as the opposition was se strong and persevering. Witness accordingly sent men round after the regular collectors, and he himself followed one collector and collected about fifty voting papers, and then called upon Ashford, who opened some of them, and asked how the election wss going on, and witness replied, Favourably, but the other side are working very hard.

Mr. Angel (for the prosecution): Mr. Ashford wss one of the guardians, snd interrupted the collection, ss "ff" receiving the voting papers at bis own house out of te ordinary way. I will not suggest that he altered them. Mr.

Gilford (for tbe defenoe) No doubt there has been an irregularity, but it is too bad to make the allegations contained in this summons. Mr. Leigh It certainly looks very suspicious, but in criminal cases magistrates should not guess at motives. I 1' 08 hown that tbe papers bad been altered, or that they had been brought to the defendant by hia order. I repeat tlut the matter is fraught with much suspicion, but te "I' "i0 "Wft objectionable, it ia not against the act of Parliament I certainly feel a difficulty in finding tbe defendant guilty.

The summons waa then dismissed, and the matter dropped. A very large bag was produced, containing, apparently, above a thousand votes rejected. pi--y.

As many as 20 persons were round each defendant, and witness had seen 400 and 500 persons in the lane at a time. When witness told the defendants to move on they did move on, but did not leave the lane, and whenever they moved on the crowd moved on along with them. They obstructed the passage, and passengers could onlv with difficnltv nass through. From noon till oast one o'olock on Wednesday, trie 8th May, there were between 400 and 600 r. .1 I I 1-M people in cue lane.

Dcarieit was not uiere mnaing a uoua ui the 4th July, and they were all there with their books'' on several days between the 4th and 12th July: in fact, speaking generally, all the defendants were there making bets.

Alderman Hale said Tattersall's was not in the City.

Mr. Metcalfe said, that the Stock Exchange was, and that it would be quite as reasonable to proceed against the members of the Stock Exchange ai against the defendants.

In consequence of information received Samuel Gould, Excise officer, was sent in May to lodge in the defendant's house. During his stay he several times ordered beer, wine, and spirits, but as he was always saked for the money beforehand, and as there waa no watch outside the house, he could not say whether the artiolea might not hsve been sent out for.

and the duty is called about 120,000. WOOL MARKET, Friday. The Colonial sales this week have at times gone off with animation, and in some instances at rather better prices.
