COUNTY WEXFORD ELECTION.

- -
Extract front * bpetch delivered by Mr. M.
Doyle, of Rom. ma giving his vote tit the hastily,
in Wexford. on Tuesday, June 30, 1818:
w Gairturittu—As an independent freeholder, I claim
your attention for a few teloweents whilst I declare my rea-
sons for voting fur Meows. Colelnugh and Carew, in pre-
ference to the two Noble Lords who are their opponents at
this election. Gentlemen, give me leave to nay, that lam not
actuated by ant motives of haired or ill will. but that I am
stimillate4 by the noblest motive that ever warmed the soul
of man-1 mean the love of my country ; said fur the lure
of that country alone do I give my valeta those Gentlemen,
considering them to he Ow must fit sod proper persons to
represent this independent County in Psi Barest. It may be
asked, anal, Gentlemen, if is right to ask any person oho
makes assertions in this Court, to give a just reason for so
doing. My particular reason is. that I think nu independent
freeholder ought to give a vote to any Mall a 110 should sot
publicly and unequivocally declare himself the friend to
Civil mid Religious Freedom. Ally Candidate °polity de-
claring himself to this effect, 1 euni.ider that every liberal
enlightened man should become his friend. This is •
BUeetioo that should. be pin to• every Candidate in thie
ritish Empire; but, particularly in /retard, where four-
drills of the population are kept ui a slate of political
slavery on account of adhering to the faith of their fathers!
—Well, Gentlemen, how does the case mend? My Lord
Valenti*, mane time back called us me, and solicited my
vote; I told him that, as I considered him the friend of
Mr. Tottenham, my towsisinaa, 1 should give it to him, if he
would pledge himself to support the just claims of the
Catholics of Ireland, in Parliament. To this question
received no answer from his Lordship • and from
that moment, I considered him, and all his party, as
standing at the illiberal side, toil I only waited to be soli-
cited by some independent friend to my country, to give
him my feeble assistance, and by so doing, to prove myself
worthy of the name of Irishman. Shortly after ibis occur-
realer, Gentlemen, Mr. Goldoni, waited on me. and re.
quested my vote. I then put the same gumbo, to him,
that I bad previously put to my Lord Valentia--and. Gen.
neaten, what was his answer? Why this—that he would nip.
port Catholic I:mancipatiun, and nut only that measure.
but that he would at all times, and we all occasions,
use his best exertions to ameliorate the coalition of his suf-
fering countrymen. 541C41, Gentletisen, was the language of
the patriot. Gentlemen. as for Mr. Carew, kis past Par-
liamertary conduct is the eery beet of pledges ful his tailor,
and to there two justly esteemed and popular Cahilirlatea I
give my support ; and, by doing so, I feel an tomcat pride
that, humble as A am, I lave dune my duty."
