GENTLEMEN,
THE very extraordinary circumstances in which I find
myself placed by the great kindness of a large portion of
your own body, demand that I should immediately address you on
the subject of the proceedings at the Commnu Hall held this day.
It is only a tew days since I was made acquainted that there
existed on the part of a great number of the Livery an intention of
supporting my neminatton as one of the Magistrates of this City,
in order to my being returned as one of yodr Representatives in
Parliament. 'Po the intimation that was given me I returned for
an answer, that remote as it had been from my intention to quit
that retirement into which I had passed at the expiration of the
late Mayoralty. and determined as I continued not to offs myself
a Candidate, yet that I feel myself not entitled to resist the due
exercise of your elective franchise, and that if in such exercise
you should think proper to call me forth, every private considera-
tion must yield to my sense of public ditty.
I now learn that a Poll has been demanded on my behalf, and
while I still refrain from offering myself a Candidate, I cannot he-
sitate
one moment to repeat to you the above declaration made to '
my private friends, with the addition of my assurance, that if'
elected my best efforts will be exerted in your service. The know-
ledge which you already possess of my principles and conduct
tender it unnecessary that to this assurance I should add any thing
more than an expression of my hope, that if by your free and inde-
pendent suffrages I should be returned as one or your Represents.
lives In Parliament. I shall not hereafter forfeit du approbation
with which my Fellow-Citizens have honoured my former exer-
tions in their service.

Ulth much reopeet. I have the honour to be,
Gentlemen, your faithful and most obNhent Servant,
