himself as havintvoted for the Beer Bill because
he was an enemy to all monopolies; and with respect
to his friendship for the farmers, he refers them to
his conduct towards his own tenants.

The friends of Mr. Briscoe complain that the
gupporters of Mr. Jolliffe have represented Mr.
Denison to have been united with Mr. Jollitfe, and
the Committees of both Mr. Denison and Mr.
Briscoe have been at much pains to deny this coa-
lition.

At six o'clock the poll dosed, and at a little after
seven the High Sheriff entered the Hall, and de-
clared the numbers to be as follow

Denison 1376
Jo)liffe
Briscoe ...
The ntmouncement was received with cheering.
Mr. DENISON begged to return them his most
grateful thanks for the proud situation in which
they had placed him on the poll this,day. lie con-
sidered this as the first day of real exertion, for yes.
terday none but his friends in the neighbourhood of
Guilford had been able to poll. lie should never
forget their kindness under any change of fortune,
nor should he permit himself, on the one hand to be
so much elevated when the title of popular feeling ,
was in his favour, nor too much depressed at other
times. He should guide his conduct by steady
principles:alone. He had been to much exhausted
yesterday to reply to the tirade of tl►e MM. Gentle-
man (Mr.: H. Sumner) against the Whip; but he
would now tell the freeholders what that calumnia►-
ed party had not done. Tl►ey had not, like the Tories,
raised the national debt from 120 millions, which it
had been in 1762, to 800 millions, which it was how
--(Cheers)—and, besides this, they deserved the
credit of having abolished the Slave Trade. 11e
trusted, however, that the distinctions of Whig and
Tory, like those of white and red roses in England,
end the Guelphs and Ghibellines in Italy, would
be banished for ever, and that the only two parties

in future known to the world would be, the Liberals
and the Illiberals. He trusted that all parties here
would unite, as all seemed to have done in France,
to promote the public good, and he could not let this
opportunity pass without bearing his testimony to
the gallant and patriotic conduct of the men of that
country.—( Loud cheering.)—lie again thanked them
for the honour they had dune him in placing him so
high on the poll, and he assured them that it would
be the study of his life to deserve their good
opinion.—(Loud cheers.)
Mr. JOLLIPPR addressed the freeholders amongst
mixed cries of applause and di,npprobation. He
said he thanked them for the exertions they had
made in his favour to-day; and he trusted he had
done nothing to diminish their inclinations to place
him in even a higher position on the poll. He on,
derstood that much had been said to-day about his
voting in favour of the Beer Bill. hle had done so
in order that the poor man might have n cheap and
good l'quor, and that the mi►chievous licensing sys.
tern--a pest to the lower orders and to the agricul-
tural interest—might be checked.--(Applause.)--
Fur similar reasons he had opposed Sir E. Kidel).
clause.—(Cheers.)—lle was as much a libe-
ral as any man there. lie was happy he could
concur with the most popular candidate as to the
gallantry and good conduct of the French, who
hail just released themselves from the chains
of Popery and priesthood.--(Cheers, among
which was heard a voice asking, " Will you
vote for the reduction of taxation ?—that's the

question.")—He had answered that question at
Epsom, as he would now. He would vote
for the reduction of taxation, but not so as to de-
prive the fundholder of Ms property, for he had as
much right to it as the landholder.—(Hear, hear.)
He was going to say something about—(Cries of
" The borough of Petersfield"—laughter, oheero,
and storms of hisses,)--They could not put him
out of temper; he was a good-humoured man, and
none liked fun better than himself.—(Cheers and
laughter.)—He would, however, say, with respect
to the amount of the debt, that the war with. France
was a war of defence for our liberties.—(Shouts of
" No, no.")—Well, we had got the debt, and we
must now psy it.—(Cheers and laughter.)—He
again thanked them, and called on them for fresh
exertions, assuring them that if he were elected, he
would do his best to serve them and the country.
Mr. rittiscoE was received with loud and conti-

nued cheering. lie wished he could sufficiently
thank them for what they bud done for him to-day.
Ilia motto, however, was, " Deeds, not words."—
( Loud cheers.) lie was most anxious to serve
them in Parliament, and he was now enjoying the
prospect of being able to do so. He anticipated a
glorious victory.—(Cheers.) Their arms were
purity and independence. Let the freeholders
shoulder them bravely, and the victory must be
theirs.—(Cheers.) They had a great work to per-
form ; the feundation.stone was laid—let the build.
ing be strong and secure, so that it might withstand
the whirlwind of party, and the dry-rot- of corrup.
lion.— (Vehement churning.) He promised faith-
fully to fulfil his part of the contract—he had no
doubt they would make good theirs. The Hon.
-Gentleman then went into a statement respecting
the coalition, supposed by some to have taken place
between the other candidates; and he read letters
stating that a Mr. Bray had canvassed in the name
of both, and that Mr. Jolliffe, in metalling a Mr.
Bowditch, had stated that he and Mr. Denison
were together. lie had no doubt these reports were
quite unfounded ; but he had mentioned them in ac-
cordance with the wishes of some of the freeholders.
Mr. DEsusti, in the most positive terms, denied
the existence of any such coalition. He did not
know Mr. Bowditch, but he knew Mr. Bray, from
whom he had received a vote to-day, which be con»
shirred to be a plumper, and bad thanked that
gentleman for it accordingly. He had never autho-
rised either of these gentlemen, or any one elsei to
mention a coalition ; fur he never bud entered, 40(1
never would enter, into one with any man.-(Cheers.)
Colonel .TotaareE denied any coalition. He did
not know Mr. Bray. He might have canvassed Mr.
Bowditch among those gentlemen whom he had
seen on the Corn Exchange, and who he asked for
their
ever, see that there could be no coalition between
second vote.—(Hisses.)—They might, hew..
him and his Honourable Friend; for they knew well
enough, that he and his Honourable Friend differed
in opinion, and his Honourable Friend was not a
man to sacrifice his principles for the advantage of a
coalition with any man..—( Cheers.)
