Friend of mine waited oh Mr. Stewart's Agent, with an Offer of the 'most decided Support, ard to be informed if he and Mr. Stewart', other Friends would nialce the Assistance mutual but instead of discovering the smallest Inclination to accede to this Proposal, my Apprehensions were realized by his receiving an answer, positively in the Negative. This, and thij.

only, was th) foundation of nil the future Changes-which hap- peiied in the Course of the Election. At ihii Period 1 allude to. Lord Kilwarlin's Superiority was evident to his Success there was no doubt, The whole Contest then lay between' Mr. Stewart and me, We bsranie avowed Opponents flattered as." I was by the Noin'tBiv- -tion of Independcni Electors! I conceived my Duty to prevent the Disappointment oi t'jeir Froiri she Engagements. I entered into, I admit myself bound not to 'have supported; Lord Kilwarlin in prejudice of Mr.

Stewart, and thus far I most strictly adhered to them bun when the Contest with his Lordihip ceased, and, tie only Questipn was, whether Mr. Stewart or I should succeed could it be expected that I sliould refuse the Assistance of thole, who were disposed to Iqnd it tome, and at a Time when my own Force was.entirely exhausted i or that I should with equal kave any regard to the Success of a Candidate, who had not inany oneinstancemanifested thesmallestfor mine. The Right Hon. Candidate has said, that he bad JisJ.iineti to sollicit Aid from the only quaiter able to afford it, but how far that assertion is re-concileable witla his course of polling those Free-" holders, who were most immediately under his Influence, and who, in consequence of that In- fluence, gave their second Voice to Lord Kilwarlin, must be Jest to the Public to determine. Having- thus far I trust done away the ill-founded Assertions vf my permit me now Gentlemen to assure that it Avail be the only Object of my Willies and the "con-stant Duty of my Life to execute the sacred Trust you have been pleased to repose me, with fidelity and zeal, and to act in every Tefpectr' becoming the- Representative of a free People) Others may have more Ability but I will yield to none in zeal and attention to my Duty.

I shall only add that I shall at all Times hold, myself bound to comply with your Instructions convey-eJ to me in a constitutional Manner, and will pt it might lave occurred to some of the very fclive mstruijents in irarumg the charge, and Inducting tld ail, indelible injury To the Gentlemen Clergy and Freeholdeis of the County of DOW N.

The high Honour yoi have conferred upon me, by chullng me a second Time to bcone.of theKc-presenlativesin Parliament of this great County, sills my Heart with the fense of your goodness and" indulgence to me. The important Trust again reposed in me, marks a Confidence which am incapable of betraying, and which nothing bat my want, of A-bility can make me disappoint. It is the happiest of Life nothing can be added but -your fukuxrXpprobation.

I acknowledge the Honour itself 'with the greatest Sincerity and the most respectful Affection but give me leave to that the Manner of conferring this' Honour has exceeded every sanguine Wish of my Friends, and infinitely passed the bounds of any Expectation I could entertain, or even venture to look up to. When the Poll was closed, the vast Majority who had honoured me with their Choice very much, surprized When I reflected that almost all the resident' Gentlemen of the County were pleased to attend the Election from Day to Day during three Weeks, and were ready to support me with their single Voices in addition to an uncommon number of single Votes which had been already given for me. I observed llie worthy Freeholders flocking in crowds to Vote.for me and to support my Interest, and to defend my Character against the inveterate and infamous, impotent Calumnies, which had been printed and published, and preached against me I lay. when with pain and anxiety I observed them leaving their Harvest exposed to the severity" of the Weather in order to fliew their Friendship and Affection to me perhaps. I should have been pardoned in such a Situation, if my Vanity had led me to proclaim myself the favourite Objett of the County.

When I first offered myself as a Candidate to represent this County, it was from an ardent Wish to give Support to thelndependent Interest, and by the Influence of my Friends and myself, -to add thength andVigour to so Honourablea Cause, Mr. Stewart was then nominated with me for that Purpose the neutrality, however, which he adopted, rendered it a Union but in Name, destroyed the very End of the Nomination, and while it secured him the Support of the Indcpen' dent Electors, left him at full Liberty to pursue his- ownlutciest, without making the smallest return. That thin was his Intention from the very beginning, will evidently appear from his refusing to co-operate with me, or to submit the management of his Interest to the Independent Committee, who, Jiad made a Request to that Purpose. This natural and necessary Consequence of joint Nomination, I did not, however, fully discover for some Time, until at length I perceived his Friendi grow backward in my Support, and that their sole Object wz fp secure his Scat at all white I was to be the Sacrifice of his Neutrality, To put an End, however, to every Kind of Jealousy on cither Side, a particular of epaulets equally and liver laced We hear they have elected Lord Arraii Value of each, No. of Prizes-, their Colonel.
