T., the FREEHOLDERS of the COUNTY of OXFORD.
GENTLE:KEN,
MR. FAN E having signified his intention of
retiring from the Representation of this County, I
take the liberty of offering myself to your notice as a
CANDIDATE for that honour. I have hitherto endea-
voured to discharge the duty of an independent Memher
of Parliament, neither joining in a factious opposition
anY
existing Administration, nor giving to any an unqua-
• lifitd support. I have lent my assistance, both in the last
and in the present year, to the measures of Reform in-
troduced by Lord John Russell, and voted with him in
both the Divisions, of which the latter has occasioned the
134 solution. I consider his Bill as a salutary endeavour
satisfy the public feeling,
to
to and to strengthen our Parlia-
mentary Constitution, by enlarging its basis, and adapting
the spirit and to the wants of the age in which we
live. lam not aware that there is any other subject of
much political importance on which public opinion is
rdivided at this moment. I need, therefore, only assure
You further, that if you should be pleased to fivour me
with your choice, I shall undertake the honourable labour
which will be imposed upon rne, with a due sense of the
Weight which ought always to be attached to your opinions ;
allots me to add, without surrendering my own right
to act according to the dictates of so
conscience, y j
I am, Gentl
udginent, and my
Your obedient humbleemen, Servant,
Nuneh
