st•tuzzr COUNTY MELTING, Nov. E.

This Meeting, held yesterday, at Epsom, was
called on the requisition of Lords Onalow and
reignmonth, four Baronets, six Knights, and twen-
•y Magistrates of the county, to consider the pros
oriety of addressing His Maj-sty on the late gland
"Id glorious viElories. On the meeting being open-
] in the regular way.
Robert Chatfield, Esq. the High Sheriff, was
called to the Chair, who called the attenta si of the
Freeholders to the requisition.—They were met oil
momentous question, and he knew they would
fispose of it as they ought.
Sir I horns; Turton then rose, and, in an address,
equally concise, elegant, and expiessive, opened the
inssiness of the Meeting He was an independent
man, and not in the habit of Battering or cjoling
linisters ; but, acting as they had done, he cnu!d not
restrain his tribute of applause to them, tor the se-
ection they had made of the Oficers to superintend
-ertain services; tney had, in that case, done ho.
.our to themselves, and achieved the greatest of all
h.meits to their country—benefits incakulable in the
-xtent, and honourable in the extreme, to us parti-
cularly, as a commercial nation.
The tioi.otirahle Baronet concluded with moving
an Address, very much like the one moved and
framed by Mr. Shaw, at the Borough Meeting.
Lord V 1 illiam Russel rose, to express his satisfac-
tion at the Ad'-ess, as moved: he most assuredly
wished it might go a little farih-r ; as it was, he
would not attempt to divi.le the meeting on it, but
would give the original motion his support.
Some other Gentlemen spoke, and th- coevion
being put on the Address proposed by Sir Thomas
TWOus, it was voted ens. ran.
The usual R-s.•lutions of Thanki to the Chairman
were entered into.

The appointment of a Committee was also made.
