0 li PrtIMIIN,
z. , HEN 1 appeared before you this morning,
~WHEN
/' YT 14 solicit your Suffrages for the honour of repre-
*.senting you, in Parliament, the splendid cavalcade with
which Iliad been escorted to the place of Election, and
;'. the unprecedented number of independent Freeholders by
Iwhom F Wall lurrounded, so overpowered my feelings, that
I was unable to give utterance to my gratitude and exul.
eition on this eventful occasion.
E;' Gentlemen, this has been one of the proudest days of
tai life. Owing to your countenance and support the
grand object of m ambition has been accomplished. I
have attained the high and distinguished honour of be-
coming your Representative, not merely by a majori.y, but
'by the unanimous voice of the Freeholders of this In le-
pendent County. ttest consideration is to suppress the
momentary feelings of triumph and enthusiasm. and thus
to Convey to you those sentiments of gratitude and respect,
Which your kindnese and exertions have called forth.
I first offered myself to your notice as an Independent
Country Gentleman, as such I shall take my scat in the
house of Cannons, unfettered by political prejudices, and
hound by no party connexions. I shall hold myself above
the reach of unconstitutional influence, and whilst I dis-
charge the duties I owe to my King dnd Country, it will
be my espsetial object to promote the local interests of my
Constituents.
Gentlemen, I have been tanght from my earliest youth
to venerate the glorious and happy Constitution under
which we live and prosper, and although I c moot concur
. in the wild and visionary theories of those who erroneously
attributing the consequence of individual corruption to
defects in the form and fabric of the State, would intro-
dace: dangerous and unnecessary innovations, I shall be
ever ready to promote those moderate and rational im-
provements which the diffusion of knowledge anti the
consequent advancement of human intellect may render
. expedient.
Tee subjects which, during the lait Session, occupied
. the attention of Parliament, and the consideration of which
Will doubtless be renewed, , ars so numerous, that it is,
• difficult to make a selection of those upon which it is
Most important I should express an opinion ; but there are
.4 few which will claim my peculiar attention.
Having of late years resided amongst you, I have wit-
belied and deplored the reducAl condition of the labouring
clusee, and the depressed state of the once prosperous cul-
tivators of the British soil. From a conviction that these
evils in a great degree arise, as affecting the former classes,
from defects in the system of our Poor Laws, and as to
the latter, from the erroneous principles and calculations
upon which it appears to me our Corn Laws are founded ;
• 14411 support such measures in both of these branches
aLetislation as may secure to the farmer a remunerating
Price for his produce, and to the honest labourer a just
and fair return for his industry. The state of our suffer-
ing fellow-creatures in the Western Colonies will not escape
)fly attention; I shall support every prudent measure
Whitt' may tend to ameliorate their condition, and by
gradual and progressive steps lead ultimately to the aboli-
tion of Slavery.
With these sentiments and intentions I take my leave,
had with the warmest feelings of gratitude and respect,
I beg to subscribe myself,
, . Gentlemen,
*our most obedient faithful servant,
