10 THE
ELECTORS OF WEiTMINSTER.

?alums AND taLLow-comaYmax !
The right of exerting your septennial elective
franchise is returned to you. Its periodical return
should be more frequeut-erithat it might be more
pure, that you might posses, more corroitutiona I
control/ over your assembled Represetitatives, and
that they might be less eiposed to corruption, which'
is fast destroying our country. Examine well,
then, the merits of the Candidates, and seriously
coicittler whether an additional support should he
given to the men who have governed and distressed
this country. Recollect the miseries, the priva-
tions you have sutfered from the wild ambition, cusps
traded selfish views, mud thoughtless extraveginied
of the Ministry. They one day tell you that the
glory of the country will be lust, its Comititittinit
will perish, and its prosperity will fade away, be.
cause the expenditure is superior to the income ;
and on the next they call upon you to throw awry
additional thousands. They appeal to Parliament
upon the necessities and difficulties of the State,
which they themselves have created by their that,.
nste ignorance, and then by burdensome taxation
till the coffers of the Treasury, to be emptied with
profuse prodigality into the pockets of hungry
Princes abroad, or to satisfy complyiiig majorities
at home. 'they grind you down with taxation 1411
carry on an originally unnecessary wor....they tell
you to support these grievous burdens fur the pre.
servation of our country, and encourage you by
every art of blandishin..nt and threat to perseverr.
that s wane and perfect peace may loosen all the
bands of your wretchedness; and when that peaty
has arrived, they endeavour to continue the druid
lavish expenditure, and upon a refusal fur its
supply in an energetic moment by the House of
Common., they tell the House, it would have
granted this supply but for the pressure ui ou
themselves*. The just remonstroucts of an to-
suited and oppressed 'people upon the diouppoisat,
ulna of their hopes and caw elution& are treated
with derision and severity. In return fur a patient
suffering of twenty-live years of unexampled war,
they suspend the Constitution—they eittpri.on
and fine those whom they laser drivel, to
uess by their own acts, turn their bodily pangs
into ridicule by metapholical and Ittcherutt• flou-
rishes of speech t. and with run.: to hypriciisy
