ahrEieltelluer, that Its hetet aspired to that high
ainasaion, neither did he conceive it to he an en-
viable one ; and it he had turned his coat by accept-
ie.,' 4 place, he hoped he had also evinced his ir.de.
pindencti, by knowing how and when to resign it.
Mr. Tierney, after having displayed a general view
orbit own political conduit, said, that if he had
bsee(conscious of having, by any aft of his life,
hierayed the trust of his constituents, he would not
hive Stentured again to face them there—as he could
sin difficulty in securing a seat for some obscure
borough. But he preferred appealing to the judg-
ment of those who had so often already given him
their suffrages. By his conduit to them, he now
begged to be judged. What he ever was, he still
should bet and, notwithstanding the opposition of
certain partisans against him, such was his confi.
dente in the truly respeCtable and independent in-
tormu of the Borough of Southwark, that be was
convinced nothing could prevent his teturn.
Sir THOMAS Teams then addressed the 3SICTI.I*
bly, in a speech of considerable length, but so inter-
rupted by the hisses of one party, and the applauses
of the other, that it was impossible to colleft any
considerable portion of what the worthy Baronet
uttered. His speech, however, generally consisted
of strong pmfessions of approved and incorruptible
independence. He reminded the Eleftors of the
able& state of dependence to which their bo-
rough and their eleCtive franchises were seduced,
by the influence of Government, and the combination
of Contraftors, Loan Jobbers, and East India Direc-
tors, whin he first came forward to rescue them
from dependency, and to excite them to assert and
vindicate their lights. tic now came forward for
the saumipurpose, and said, that he too might truly
my, as the Right Hon. Gentleman had said, that if a
• seat in Parliament was his see ohjeft, he might have
'amity found on through soros, obscure and de-
- pendent borough ; bet he preferred an objeß more
worthy his ambition, in a desire to reps esent the
fast borough in the kingdom. He complainel that
both his competitors had, on this occasion, joined in
. their canvasses, and coalesced in their committees
spina him ; and mentioned the name of a Mr,
loon& who had been the Chairman of Mr. Thorn-
ton's committee, who had canvassed for both. He
concluded by expressing his reliance on the success-
ful support of the constituents.
Me. 'lsere, with great warmth, denied the im-
psuatioo, and professed himself, exclusively, the
ft Wad and supporter of Mr. Thornton.
Mr. Taos •voat and Mr. Matter both solemnly
disclaimed having either direetly or Indirectly coun-
t neastaced any each principle upon the canvass.
The question was then put upon the name of each
. Candidate aucteuively, and the show of hands was
!declared to be in favour of Sir R. Turton and Mr.
