WESTMORELAND.

As it is probable that Mr. Brougham will visit his I
seat in Westmoreland during the present recess,_ per-
mit ins, gentlemen, to suggest to you, through this
channel, the propriety of welcoming his return home
by a public dinner, to be given on the spot where
his talents have been so often and so splendidly ex-
erted.in your behalf.
When the frie►ids of civil and religious liberty at
Liverpool,—whose connection with its ablest and
most intrepid champion is only of that general cha-
racter, which binds together the noble-hearted in
every quarter of the globe,--have led the way in
the adoption of that very measure which I would
now recommend you to adopt : surely the indepen-
dent Freeholders of West►noreland,—they, whom
he has, in a peculiar manner, chosen for his own ;
they, for whom he has so manfully, (I wish I might
add, so successfully) fought the good fight of free-
dom against the strong-holds of shameless corrup-
tion and aristocratical despotism; they, whose glo-
rious boast it is, that the most accomplished orator
and most enlightened statesman of his age desires
nothing more fervently, than to become their repre-
sentative in Parliament ;--surely they, of all men,
will not deny themselves the satisfaction of tender-
ing him this slight, but cordial, tribute of sincere at-
tachment.
There are, besides, some reasons of temporary and
contingent operation, which seem to invest the pre-
sent
period with a singular fitness for the execut►on
of such a design. You will perceive at once, that I
allude to the late ministerial changes, in which, as
we all know, Mr. Brougham acted a part so honour-
able and so efficacious. Had it not been for his
powerful mediation, between Mr. Canning, on the one
hand, and the party of which he was the acknow-
ledged leader, on the other, that disastrous alterna-
tive must unavoidably have taken effect—which may
Heaven long forfend—the recal of those men to
office, who, whatever may have been the integrity of
their views, or the rectitude of their principles, were,
collectively regarded, almost contemptible in point of
talent, and blindly devoted to a system of adminis-
tration, ruinous in its tendency to the vital interests
of the British people, and subversive of the dearest
and best ascerta►ned rights of mankind. With the
truly patriotic object of averting, at nearly any cost,
a consummation so earnestly to be deprecated, Mr.
Brougham cheerfully offered up all meaner aims of
personal aggrandizement on the altar of the national
weal, seeking no other recompence of his magnani-
mity, than that which is the richest of all to a
generous soul—the proud consciousness of having
contributed largely to the happiness of his fellow-
citizens. . .

To proVe, then, the deep sense, unanimously en-
tertained by you, of the value of his interposition,
and your entire approbation of his whole conduct,
at that momentous crisis, what can be more natural,
tha► that you should employ this method, so pecu-
liarly English, of conveying to him your feelings of
ardent gratitude, and your determination to support
him in t►me to come, as you have supported h►m
in ti►rie past, with unabated zeal and unflinching
firmness ?
I am, Gentlemen,
Your's most respectfully, S.

LEITII.--On Tuesday afternoon a fine
