hustings, said, " . "Gentien'tenilll come For Ward acdr speak to you." When sirence was obtained; Mr. Fox said, that having had, for 22 years, the honour of repressmtiog this City in ParliaMent, lie again cameforward, anti solicited their Votes upon the present occasion. He should not have made such' a request, were he not informed by several persons, that his doing so would, at the'present moment, prove favourable' to --the Feace and Independence of the' City ; and arty thing called for by such - Constituents as they were, would, if refused on his part, sub jea hiln-to the imputation of being the most un grateful of men,—an imputation, which he trusted', could not fairly rest upon hiin.—His principles, he hoped, it would be then .'unnecessary to expound ; he trusted they were well known to the Electors of Westminster; but as they were short, he_ would again repeat ,them.- s -His principles were those of the Constitution of Great Britain, as uniformly under stood by the most enlightened Pao iots of the Country, ---which principles might briefly be resolved into two points :—that in theory the Sovereignty is in the People (oit - cwhich some of the Mobility exclaimed " Ay so it is—here zve are!") and in pratlice, that those who -administered the Constitution, ought, to keep in mind that Sovereign from whom they hold it.—This had always been his of —it was then his opinion, aid he believed would continue so as long as he lived. With respea to" what' had been said relative to leis not regularly -at ,tending in his place in Parliament, he would con fess, that in that resped he had aced from his own • judgment ;—that he saw no occasion to repent of his condua He would observe, that after 30- years of inisy ,ife in Politics, he could not help thinking--nay, he would boldly say, that•as, be twetn the- E'leticas of Westminster and him, there was rio doubt of his honesty of intention, he should be allowed a little to use his own judgment. The best of : that judgment he bad followed,. and would continue to fallow. It was the pride of his life, that ever since the memorable period of 1780, there had been, inevery.instance, a great majority of the Elettors of Westminster in his favour :—his prin ciples tl ere.fore were congenial, ,and his conduit apPrOved by them. But it may be said, " Why not have both Representatives of similar princi pies ?" In answer to which, he would recall to their attention the" events of the period when a friend, dear to him, and who was one of the most honoUrable men in the Country, Lord JOHN TOW NS 1•0 ND, was united with him in the repre sentation of this City,--the struggle at that period was well known to many, - and the consequences which folloWed, upon the whole i . rendered it ad visable . not to persist in that line of opposition ; and if such a determination was wise in 1788, it was no less so in iBO2.—A - Noble Lord was pro 15OSed; who; if the majority could not agree upon other principles, had, claims to their consideration as a gallant Officer ;—one who had served the Public with fidelity aid zeal, and who had added to the national stock of honour, by: the splendour of his aitions.—lf the which . regulated the condtiCt of the majority of the Eledors of West..- minster, 'at the period to which he alluded, were not deemed advisable •to be recurred to, he did not see- that - they could elect as a colleague, a person more worthy, than the Noble Lord who has been nominated. With- respet 'to himself, it may be said, " if you despair So much of the situa tion of the Ciiuntry, why stand in the way of men. Who entertained hopes.of retrieving it ?" His in tention was not to stand in the way of such . men . : let it be shown, even in the next Sessiorrof Puha_ meat, that' men .of more youth, .adivity, and of greater abilities than himself, were willing to come. forward---;-and that from circumstances they were likely to be successful ; if any such can be produced, he would most freely give way to him, and in the next Session solicit the office of the Chiltern Hun dreds, with as much cheerfulness as any other per son could,Possibly r solicit an office of honour or emo. lurnent ; but upon the whole, taking all - the present clicutriStances into consideration, he thought it best to proceed as he had latterly recommended, unleis they 'meant to be reduced to the situation in which they stood previously to the year 1780. it was on these general principles, and on . the grounds which he expressed in his Advertiement, in which he candidly spoke his mind upon the subjea, that he now solicited their votes. Should he be again retUrned, he should, in favourable, eiticumstances, and Whenever he' saw the possibility of being of Service by his attendance in of course . in•Ost Zealously_come forward, and exert his best abilities' in the service of his Constituents arid of his Country; but at the present Moment, as he had declared in the Paper he alluded to, he saw no prospeet of being of service that way. He ex pressed his gratitude for the favours he hadre ceiv,ed, 'and for the attention with which they were then . .pleed to', hear him, and assured the Eleaors '- that' were he _again returned, he, should, on all . TirattiQable - 'occasions', zealdliSly exert himself in their-, service: Mr.'Fox's Address 'was hard with many tokens . 4prnbation, and followed -by the loudest , expres- . sions of applause.

Fleet. For his own•parr, he was not accustomed 'to speak much in public : he , would not take up their time by making professions, only' toassure them, that- if they did him' the honoui. to return him, he wciuld, to the 'utmost of his power, endeavour to serve them -with hondur, in tegrity, and fidelity. He hoped, on account of the return of Peace, he should have an opportunity of discharging his duty-in Parliament more regu'arly than hitherto: ,It was his intention, 'since his re.; turn from- Ireland, to pay his personal respeas to A great number of the Ele&ors ; but -a recent mis fortune happening, he was prevented- from so at tending, and which, he trusted, would be received as an adequate excuse. Mr. Git.A.HAnt then came forward, and informed, his auditory-, if they conferred the high 'honour On him, of ele&ing him a representative fir Westmin:. ster, words could not express . his feelings; but his future life should speak his gratitude' (a laugk). He quoted the nervous language 'of Mr. Stt ERIDAN, to slim the insufficiency of words upon so m e occaL lions; " but," observed Mr. GRAHAM: " words were never so little wanting as upon the present Occasion.” (mire laughing.) He had placed 'a sacred paper near his heart, - which he intended shortly to read, -and though he saw the friends of the other CandidateS were at that moment numerous within the Hustings, he would sternly, avow his de termination to persist ; no consideration should` keep him beck. He then produced the paper, from which he read to the following effect "If he were: chosen, he 'would constantly attend his duty in Par liament—his Constituents 'should, at all times have free access to .(a • laugh)=lie would obey 'their instructions tie would not 'accept of any place, pension, cir preferment--he would vote for a Par liamentary Reform—and, whenever it may be de sired, he would restore back the sacred charge with which he was intrusted, witness my hand and seal. (lord lase' bing.) No threats, he continued, should intimidate him—he was as long a time in business, as 'some of those who spoke were in Parliament—. it was in the power of no man to impeach his charaler as a man of business—it was no disgrace to send a man of business to Parliauent. - He had. been a pupil to the worthy Alderman SKINNER, who arose to the highest honour by- his personal,. merits alone. He saw no reason, therefore, why, he should not represent the City in -which he had the honour to be born. He reposed the fullest coil_' 4dence in the le6tors, and trusted they would per. severe in hii favour." .The usual proclamation was, then; made,rspea, ing the Candidates, and a shew of hands. or dered.—That; for Mr. Foxe was nearly general.— For Lord GARDNE R WAS nearly, but.not quite so many.--And for Mr. GRAHAM ' , the hands did not appear to us to be more than a dozen... A Poll was then formally demanded by Mr. GRAHAM. Mr. PRAI X AM soon after took occasion •to re mark, it was unjustly charged upon him, that he wished to interrupt the .peace of Westminster, and he therefore agreed (as we could hear) to a proposition, that the Poll should close on. Saturday ; ---and in answer to some observations which were made by some gentlemen near him on the subjed of qualification, he said, that' he possessed .more than double what was necessary. Mr. O'BRIEN felt it necessary, shortly to ad_ dress the Assembly, and said, it could not escape their observation that Mr. GRAHAM demanded the votes of the Electors in direct opposition to Mr. Fox. The Court was shortly after adjourned for an hour, in order to prepare places for receiving the votes, &c. after which the poll commenced. ~ . . At four o'clock the books were closed for the day, and upon the nuttbers being reckoned up they appeared as follow: . For the Hon. C, J. Fox - i 43 Lord GARDN'ER, ... 127 Mr. GRAHANt . - 40 Mr. Fox said, .that he had to announce the num bers on the Poll. He _had eXpetted, that upon the present occasion they would not have been troubled with an opposition. Of the. Candidate he could say nothing, for he did not know him, but it ap peared to him that he ,was pursuing an objet} which would only. create trouble and expence, without any prospea of attaining it. For himself, his principles were known to the Electors of West minster, and he entreated those who wished him well, to come forward with their prompt and ac tive support, which would the sooner put an end to this contest - , and-send him triumphantly to Par liament. It was not the approbation and support of the EledOrs of Westminster, but the People at large that he was anxious to please. The cause of the People he.would,ever support upon every occa sion.' He thanked the Eleetors for their support, and concluded by entreating their further exer tions. ' Lord GAR DNER' said, that Mr. Fox had announced the 'riumbers on-the Poll. For his own part, he was satisfied, and hoped that his friends would continue their exertions in his favour while the Poll was kept open.

GARNERIN't-13ALLO3N. Lis name of the Gentleman who accompanied Mr. GARNERIN on Monday in_his Aerial Eight, is LOCKER, which waA , concealed, lest any account should ,reach his family, who reside at Greenwich, and thereby. alarm . them for.his safety.._ He gives the following particulars of his voyage. •Although the world has been aiready preser.q_ ed•with an account of a late Aerial-Excursion, flatter myself so much interest is still entertained by the Public for the safety of M. GARNERiN, that the following particulars of his second Ascent )will prove acceptable': The very unfavourable ;weather, attended with a heavy gale at South, and S.W. induced. M. GA'RNERIN to give up his inten. don of, ascending to display the promiseieXperi ment of the,Parachute. In this event it had been arranged that Mr. SOWDEN should Once more ac company him; but some misunderstanding having taken' place betWeenth.se Gentlemen, and having had some previous conversation on the preceding day with. M. GARNER.' N.Oll the subjea, I ascended with him yesterday afternoon at ten minutes before five o'clock, from Loan's Cricket-Ground. The 'strong assurances of my companion, added to what I had read on the science of aerostation, and the ex-, 'perience of former Aeronauts, had so fully per'Snaded me of my perfed, security, that I enjoyed the wonderful and enchanting prosped which '.now presented itself with unmixed pleasure.:---Although the dense stare of the atmosphere obstruaed the sight of disELut oljeas in sygrcit degree, that ourborizon ,was'some what 'United, the unusual con ' course of spedators, which gradually diminished to; an undisti;lguished mass, - and the view' of a great part of the Metropolis, together With. the ' surrounding country, afforded me an entertain ! ment worth the purchase of any. supposed danger. After throwing out some part of our . bal_ . last we ascended very rapicllyanci by the.interven. non of some thick eloudS (which had much the ap pearance of a sea of cot top beneath us, as described by Mr. BALown‘:,.ot Chester.), we entirely lost sight of the earth. We moved with much rapidity, al though our rnotion was to me perfeEtly impereep . :. tible.;• and at .length the clouds dispersing, we again saw - the country below us. I atten - ipted in vain to ascertain our situation; by calling to my recolle&ion.the appearance of die country, which appeared to me more like a prospeet seen iii a camera' _when placed in a ,very elevated Situation; , than any thing to which -I could compaie. it. I ,map is an incorreE ComparisOn, as the va_ obje4s are not.as in 'nature, delineated with suffiiient minuteness to bear such a resernbialiee.— About this time M. GARNERIN looked at his . watch,,and observing we had been five minutes on' our voyage, proposed to'descend in abdut the , - .lathe time. , The perusal of Mr. SowDEN's narrative led me to. observe, with much attention, the - power of hear ing,noises below ; - neither M. GARNERIN nor myself could-distinguish sounds above theelevation of 3 or 4.600 feet, though M. GARNERIN imagines a very confused sound, but totally undistinguishable,. may be heard considerably - higher. We never at tained a greater height this day, by M. G.Aapa. LUN's computation,..than about a, zoo French toises, or 7,800 feet, as M. GARNER IN, being desirous to return the same evening Co town, did not- cruse to lose a favourable opportunity-, of descending. At . length ;we saw . at. a distance what' afterwards proved to be Epping Forest,with,a'range of distant hills. beyond, :and observing an open champagne country, M. GARNER;I N--opened. the- valve, 211(1 we began to descend. Oiteeted mz, to call to sonic persons employed in a field, as we approached the ground, to take .hold of the ropes -which we had thrown out for the purpose, . and; recommended me to hold fast by the cord':, to..avoid the' shock , . on the Ballcion's first touching the earth. This precaution proved very necessary, .as the Erce ;with which we' descended, was- very considerable, from the force of the- wind, rather than by our specific gravity,: and the rebound bore -..a.Up again. with velocity, to the height of 150 or zoo feet. In re-descending we struck against a tree, the_shock -of ,which gave. M. GAR_ N E N, a severe. blow on ihe- back, and he, o b serve d that this was the only occasion, during a period oft - z years, in which he had been in the habit of. aeronau tigation, and the. 27th timOiehad ascended, that he ever suffered such an inconvenience. Several 'orate peasantry being now? at hand, we were prevented from any further ascent, and alighted .from die car with perfel safety. We immediately inquired our situation, and- found-:we ,had- fallen, in a field Hof Mr. OwEtes, .at'.;Chingford,. in- Essex, and 're-, ferring to our watches, observed we -had. made our voyage exaBly - in - one .quarter .of: an Alour.-f7— We dispatched a _messenger:to Woodford for a post. 'chaise, and having expressed the inflammable air, packed the Ballowrin:the car, and had it,conveyed, to .a small inn atrChingford_green, adjoining which we had descended, from whence, after a slight re past on some pi ovisioris _we had- brought with, us, we set off for Londoli,„ and arrived at M. GARNE, • R IN's, in Poland,street, a quarter ,after.nine in the evening. , . Although the mob Which surrounded us on our descent, were as usnal, both troublesome and -01E 'ciously impertinent, we received great • attention' from Mr. Hucurs, tile. Stamp Office, London, and several other Gen glen who beheid our arrival. Attention would have see❑ however, ensured to us, if necessary, by the paper * put into the hands of M.
