(Load laughing and apathy! , ) I would rattier have the return cf the good-will of a man who was csiginally my [tient!, but who became my enorny, on account of un founded calumnies, than I would have the hollow and insidious professions of a thousand false lriends was App , %,:sts.)

Among th e thin g s which fell yester'44, there was an attack made of a personal nature npqA the' Noble Lord near me, (Lord Cochrane) whirls, I think. those who heard it, opposite me. I. mean ::.e populace, in general, felt in the mann er it beceoe them to feel cr. such subjeas. (Brava! breve !) I say. they participated in the feelings of a gallant um, who evinced me feelings on account, of the reproaches which had been thrown out aga inst him, as to hi. father. They felt, I say, as they ought to do, and they felt as I felt. (delve ! bravo ! Sherry.) Gentlemen. I will say this. without corffplimeming she populace. as they are called, al though I do not often use the etpression, because I look u; on them a; that class of the community that speaks the sense of the people; 1 hew: often, u?au former occasions found them wrong-headed, but• 'never wtong.hearted (Halms hit::e ! sod.

Having said this much, the Noble Lork vita allow me to address some serious matters to him, art* I will do it with that complaisance and d corum due from one Gentleman to another. lap peal to the Noble Lord himself, ad' to the gallan Officers who are near him, whether I have not aced. oectily from the first day of this in meeting the objettion as to a naval Officer being an impreigr, person to represent rf? ( were they e,r! exele n;,r of the crowd). That, continued Mr. Shernlar is memr of opirion ; but I will appeal to him. and to them, whither. up.-n cool redecti.),l, they d o e a; think that I was ti lting consistently. but without conridering my own irderest in this Eleetiou t I have been endrevouring to prevent him from cast ing relleaiors on the navy. from the best of motives; namely, that they might not produce mischievous creels, which I am convinced the Noble Lied is in his heart far from being inclined they should create. I am willing to admit, that the Noble Lord is convinced of the truth of every circumstance which he has alleged, but - I must complain, that be takes up matters upon light grounds, as stated to him by others. and of which he is ses* the vehicle to you. The Noble Lord said, that Men I last. stood for Westminster, the slim of 10001. was allowed by Gove.ornent to support my Elation. (Here Lord Cochrane denied, that this was consistent with what he had stated). I am incapable, continued Mr. Sheridan, of misrepresenting the words of auy man; it was further added, that independently of [hie 1C001.• the sum of POOII. had been issued from the Treasury to defsay the expenses of Sir Samuel Hood and myself. Now, Gentlemen. Ido most solemnly protest, upon my honour, and I will refer him to proof of whet I state, that from that Trea sury I never received the assistaad* of a single shilling• I never \would hove accepted of an had it been . offered me ; and as to there being a y joint account of expenses between Sir Samuel Hood and me, I as solemnly declare, that we never had any. Fist the truth of these assertions, I refer the Noble Lord to Mr. Booth, Sir Samuel's Solicitors and Mr. Dawson.- of Goldera.square, his LordelliVe own Agent. I state, that this is enrreetly the truth, and I ask Lord Cochran , : to do that which i would do in a similar case. ween I had found that I had heert imposed upon by erroneous intorma,ion ; would af'"lo',.ise for the allegations I bad made, an-. r. mire the charge.
