nEXTLEDIEN, -
IWAS induced to become a Candidate to represent our
ancient Borough in Parliament, by a requisition from a most
numerous and respectable body of you, my friends and neighbours,
desirous to return a Member who would support the Protestant
Establishment in Church and State. I accepted the invitation. and
have now maintained an arduous contest for six days, in which I
have received the suffrages of 1,312 of the Electors, of whom 829
were plumper', whilst the other Candidates have not pulled 3UU
plumper' between them.
I believe no similar exertion has ever been known, and it has
given us an opportunity of shewing that there exists amongst us a
spirit which will overcome the bondage in which the llon.ugh has
been kept of late years • and the present Election will be an earnest
that your wishes will ultimately prevail.
I should. indeed, be ungrateful if I hesitated to acknowledge the
kindness with which I have been received, and I am satisfied that
had your intentions been earlier communicated to me. instead of
being the last, I should have been the first upon the Pull. Our
exertions, although not successful, have yet achieved a victory; and
that our opponents well know.

My pritictiples have been faithfully declared to you, and by your
conduct you have proved that you know how to appreciate them.
They are such m in my opinion ought to be those of every Repre-
sentative in Parliament : a firm attachment to the Constitution as
established in Church and State at the Glorious Revolution.

Whenever another vacancy may occur, if it should be your plea-
sure to call upon me, I shall be ready again to come forward to
vindicate our rights, and to maintain the cause which we are
pledged to support.
I beg, Gentlemen, you will accept my wannest and most heart-
felt thanks fur the personal kindness I have received at your hands;
and I have the honour to be,

Gentlemen,
Your most devoted and faithful Servant,
Southwark, June IS, 1826. EDWARp POLHILL.

TO THE GENTRY, CLERGY. AND FREEHOLDERS OF
THE COUNTY OF ESSEX.

GENT LEDIEN,
I FEEL quite unable to express, in adequate terms,
I the sentiments of just pride and gratification I expetience, upon
again receiving at your hands the important charge of representing
you in the Commons House of Parliament.
It has been the object of my life to hold a seat in that Assembly,
and the summit of my ambition has been achieved by being sent
there by the Freeholders of my native county, and I shall continue
to exert every effort in my power to he serviceable to the country ;
and there never was a period in which the most careful and unpre-
judiced consideration of its true interest was more necessary than
the moment in which I am addressing you : we have encountered
difficulties and distresses since the Peace of an unprecedented cha•
meter, the ace in my opinion of mistaken legislation respecting
the Currency; 4041 see great danger front the too eager application
of captivatinftheories to established interests, which cannot be
precipitagly turned from their fixed channels.
The serne political principles which have hitherto actuated my
public conduct, will continue to be cherished by me to the latest
hour Orgy life. lam convinced they are in unison with the spirit
of the Constitution, which, in its purity, is the best calculated to
uphold the liberties of mankind, and afford to the people of sur-
rounding nations the best model on which to rear the fabric of
freedom in their respective countries.
It is Impossible to conclude without entreating you to accept my
moat grateful acknowledgment for the kind and considerate atter'.
tion you have shewn me, in dispensing with my attendance upon
the hustings this day.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
11'ith every sentimegt ei respect and gratitude,
Your faithfurand obedient humble Servant,
London, June 14, 18211. CHARLES C. WESTERN.
