Sir Horace St Paul, 2nd Baronet (29 December 1812–1891) was a British landowner and politician, who represented East Worcestershire in Parliament between 1837 and 1841.

Horace St Paul was born on 29 December 1812, [1] the only son of Horace St Paul, MP for Bridport, and Anna Maria, the illegitimate daughter of John Ward, 2nd Viscount Dudley and Ward. His father inherited a title as a count of the Austrian Empire that same year and was awarded the title of baronet in 1813. [2] He was educated at Christ Church, Oxford. [1]

St Paul contested East Worcestershire as a Conservative at the 1835 general election, when he was narrowly defeated by two Whig candidates, and again at the 1837 general election, when he was returned along with another Conservative. [3] The 1837 election was said to have cost him around £16,000. [4] He stood down at the 1841 general election due to ill health. [4]

On his father's death in October 1840 he inherited an estate of over £100,000, together with the Austrian countship and the baronetcy. [2] He owned property at Ellowes Hall near Dudley and Ewart Park near Wooler, Northumberland. [4] He married Jane Eliza Grey in 1867, and had one daughter, Maria, born 1868. [1] He died 28 May 1891, [3] when the baronetcy became extinct. [1]
