The INDEPENDENCE of the COUNTY of
SOMERSET.

A Disoltition ,of Parliament- having now taken
place, we, the undersigned Freeholders of the County
of Somerset, request the attendance of William. Dickinson,
Esq. at the ensuing Nomination, where we shall hope to
meet the Freeholders at large;, that in concert with them we
may devise such, Ineatsures as may tend to repair the Vio-
-lence offered to the County on a former occasion, and to pre-
serve its future Indothidence: • •

. With these' important objects irt' view, we make it our
earnest request to Mr.' Dickitaon, that he will not avail him-
self of any prOfeisional agency previous' to tile Nomina.
tion. •

We are decidedly of Opinion, that any attempt to secure
the. Show of Hands by such Measures as }wire lately been re-
sorted-to, is_hoth improper and unconstitutional, and that
we are imperiously called upon to exert ours;dvesin suppress-
ing Violations -of Free' Election, that we believe to be with-
out a precedent in any other County.

well, as with the Freeholders at. large, in any measure for
preserving and maintaining the 'lndependence of the County

UTI-WNEVER the Leaders of Contending Par-
ties and Factions in a State unite, the History of the
World bears evidence, that it never is in favour, but always
at the ex pence, of the People, whose renewed and augment-
ed pillage pays the scandalous price of the reconciiiatioi.
Under these circumstances, you are now called, prema-
turely and suddenly, to a fresh Eledion of your Re?resenta-
lives, if;hey can be called such. And a double imposture
is attempted to be passed upon you. The watch-word of
one Party is, the best of Kings. The watch-word of the
other is, the. best of Patrioti. But-neither, of these Parties
will chuse.to descend to, particulars, and inform you what
the best of Kings and the best of Patriots have already done,
or. will - hereafter, do, for you. What they have done for
themselves we knOw and feel—what farther they-will do for
ps we can only conjelure. - They who have desired a new
Parliament thuS stiddenlyn- in our present situation, un-
doubtedly have their own strong reasons for it, which they.
are not likely to disclose. • Alit 1
.am thoroughly persuaded,,
that all our preseta Burthens and Restraints,, vexatious and
galling as they -are, will appear 'as but trifles when compared
with what they will be at the close of this now-coming Par-
liament..,

I would willingly ,be instrumental in the rescue of my
Country at the certain expence of Life and Fortune ; Out it
cannotberescued, and would not deserve to be rescued, un-
less the Majority- of the Country be uncocrupt. It is fit
that the experiment should be tried, and that at least the
propr;rtion of'remaining Integrity should be known. And I
pledge my lionour to =you, Genticrnen, that upon the pre-
sent occasion 1 do not desire the Aid or Countenance 'of any
of the Parties, in or out of power that 1 will not distri-
bute, nor censent to the distribUtiOn, even of a single Cock-
ade: nor will I, furnish, nor consent to the furnishing, of a
single Carriage. If the Freeholders of Middlesex feel the
Situation of their Country, and desire to Redress its Griev-
ances, they will do their easy parts tdwards such Redress bye'
an uncorrupt Vote; And if this spirit is not to be found ia.
this County at this time, it is not likely to 'be -found any=
where else at any time. • Lee the FreehOlders of Middlesex-A
do their easy Duty— I will do mine, which will not be easy';
and if it shall he their unbiassed Choice, I will prove thy-
self their uncorrupt, disinterested, and zealous ltepresenta-
live. . .

With full assurance of your Integrity and Spirit,
Your most faithful humble. Servant,

TT was not
thee intention of Mr. "Thoroton, or
the principal Gentlemen ®f the Country, to have pro-
posed a second Candidate to represent the Ilorough of C ran-,
t halm on. the present occasion, .unless two Gantlitiates had
been brought forward in opposition to Mr. Thoroton. It
was Hoped that this mark of moderation would nave prqduced
the eked that was so obvibusly intended ; but as the liar!
mony of the Town is again interrupted by the announcing of
two new .Candidates, it bcco:nes necessary tO'rrieet them on
equ4l,terrns ; your Votes and Interest are' therelore mast
anxiOnsly.and earnestly requested for Mr. Thoroton, and for
