Mr. Sheriff PARKINS then came forward. and
thanked the Livery for the good order and regula-
rity of their proceedings.
Mr. THOMPSON said, that he had not yet reco-
vered from the bruises he received on Wednesday;
he was, however, strong enough to address them.
Little minds, he said. were elevated by trivial
causer. The party to whom he alluded had gained
a small majority, and they could not contain them-
selves. One gentleman, in the excess of his tri-
umph, called out to them to put down their ear;
but he forgot that they were not slaves, to he cow
mended. It generally happens, said he, in popu-
lar elections, that the unpopular party in the corn-
mencement appear strong in numbers, and for a
plain reason—corrupt slaves are dragged np by
their masters, but freemen will take their own
time.—(Applanse.)—But though freemen may be
slow, of one thing rest assured, that freemen will
come up at last.—(Applaisse.)—From the sample
of the men brought up to vote for Mr. Alderman
Bridges this day, I am satisfied they are at their
last hope.—(Lone and tnonalitions applanse.,l—
is, said he, no doubt, that if the Livery-
men exert themselves during this election, they
will read such a lesson to their opponents, as will
deter them for ever more from attempting to usurp
the rights of their fellow-citizens. But. Gentle-
men, said he, even if we fail we have this comm.--
lation, that if we cannot command we will ender-
'your to deserve success.—((reed applarse.)—

testi Bridges—his private character I believe to be
respectable; hut we have nothing to do here with
