GENERAL ELECTION.

To the GENTLEMEN, CLERGY, and FREEHOLDERS

of the COUNTY of MIDDLESEX.

GENTLEMEN,
T Congratulate you; on the/hopes which the present
state of the Poll authorizes us to indulge; but permit me
to entreat you not to suffer any appearances, however pro-
mising, to induce too great a confidence of.my ultimate suc-
cess. The prize for' which' we' contend- demands, as it
.fleserves, all the efforts that can be made to obtain it. Un-
til the contest is terminated, the viciory cannot be certain.—
Mit I beseech you to consider that we are striving dot merely
tor vietory, but for the deliverance, of. tile County from the
evils by which it has-been so long distraled and convuls-
ed. The question is not, rho snail be your Representative,
but whether theluipes of those who have twice attempted,
by the most nefarious- means, to over' helm your Rights,
shall be crushed When such a questton is at issue, I
trust every Freeholder will be anxious to come forward
and declare himself ; ' and I reel that I am consulting the
dearest interests of yourselves,' and of all who may in-
,herit your Privileges, when I 'request you to make every
possible exertion,
,not merely to secure my return, but
to honour rue witbsuch:a.matority as will explicitly deClare
the feelings of the County, and afford a permanent security
to its independence. • •

i-tave the honour to be,
i.ERTLerviEN,
Your most obedient very humble Servant,
'WILLIAM MELLISH.

Ts tile g'4NTRY, CLERGY, and FREEHOLDERS of

the COUNTY of NORFOLK.

'GENTLEMEN,
O language can adequately express the senti-
ments of respect and gratitude which I feel towards -
you, for the honour, you have conferred upon me, by again
cleating me to tae one of your Representatives in Parliament.
It has long been the first object of my ambition to till the
high station to which your suthages have so often raised me;
and in performing the 'arduous duties which belong to it, 1
have at all times been anxious to convince you of my atten-
tion to your local interests, and to your 'ainStitutional
rights,
For the sincerity. of these' professions. I may, without im-
propriety, appeal to that testimony which actions alone can
;Ilford ; and. the confidence which you continue to „pla,ce in
me-is the inure creditable to. you and to myself, because it
seems to be the result of your unbiassed judgment upon the
soundness of my principles, and the consistency of my con-
dud.
Lt. is impossible for me not to be gratified by the refleCtion,
that my pretensioas to Your favour have been supported by
many of the. most ancient and most
..respeciable • taniilies
which adorn this County, and, the Members of which are
placed above the reach of 'every 'dishonourable motive, by
their education; their affluence, • and their habitual regard to
the prosperity and the glory of their Country.
BLit among the various considerations which. endear the
welfare of my Constituents to my heart, I look back with
peculiar pleasure to the sterling -good sense, and the in
flexible integrity of our numerous and excellent' Yeomanry.
The man who for any purposes• of party, or under- any •
irritation of disappointment,' could for a moment suppose
such persons capable of being influenced by bribes or threats,
betrays an utter ignorance of their old and proper character.
The Candidate who might attempt to gain their support by
flattery or by Caluinny, would • soon meet the just punish-
ment of his offence, in their honest indignation. flue re-
peated and Marked partiality which I have experienced from
them constitutes a direct and plenary refutation of all the
unmerited blame which has been cast upon me, for pre-
suming to didate to a class of men to wnose favour 1 am
eminently indebted for my success at many contested E lee-
tions, in whose happiness a must naturally take amore. lively
interest, from my own attachment to agricultural pursuits,
and whose meritorious industry, , well earned opulence, and
unalterable love of freedom and social order. I am accustom-
ed to rank amongst the niftiest bulwarks of-our national
safety.
think ikunjust to throw upon my much respe4ted Op-
ponent the slightest degree of responsibility for any of the
ungracious measures which have been - imputed to a few
in-
temperate partizans.
It were unnecessary forme, Gentlemen, to expatiate upon
the distinguished talents and honourable spirit of my il-
lustrious Colleague t found in'hint the wise and friend-
ly counsellor of my youth ; I acted in concert with him
for m, any years, - upon many important. occasions ; I have
deeply lamented the .causes which for a time separated us.
never permitted that separation to efface my sense of the
noble qualities with. which he is gifted, or to alienate from
him my personal regard. . I believe those causes no longer to
exist. I trust that they never will return; and though I
shall ever assert the right of torming and following my own
judgment upon men and measures, 1 consider my re.unien
with Mr. Windham, upon public grounds, as an event must
likely to be conducive to the public good.
The experience I haVe had of the good seusc and good
nature which eitaraderise the Freeholders of Norfolk, leads
me to hope, that all • local ai.imasities will soots be lost in a
general and steady union of sentiment and exertion. for the
security and honour Of the British Empire at this inoineut-
ous crisis. It. remains. for the to assure you of my sincere
endeavours to deserve the continuance 'Of your approbation,
by diligence and lidelny,iti. discharging the Trust which you
have reposed in me, and by 'unshaken firmness in defending
your Liberties as Engliih Subjects, and the. independence of
your County.

I haiT the honour to. be,
_GEKILEMEN,
With tlle gied.est respeet,
Your faithful and an at °hectic:lA Ser:ant.
