TO THFIK HIGH 141IGHTINk11111S.

" High and Mighty Lords,
" Notwithilanding the unfettled Rate of my health for a long
time pall. and particularly the unfortunate diminution of my
fight would have afforded more than fufficient grounds for with-
drawing myfelf from the fatigues of public ; I have
hl-
tlrertu continued in office front a fink of duty to my country,
and with a view of doing it fome &coast ferviee; being farther
influenced by the perfirafion that the renewal of the late war, and
the confuter noes setting from the approach of dr. enemy's bands
towards our frontiers, rendered filch a Rep, on my part, the leaft
doubtful. At precut, High and Mighty Lords,thefe imperious mo.
tires etill no more: and my eontriellon. that any further (crake
of mint in my.prefent fituation Le not dentist to the good of the
country, has determined me to leave a poll, which being no
longer beneficial to my countrymen, nor advairageous to my.
fell, I think it unadvifatile any longer to fill. I therefore make
tthit tife of the privilege, which the alit Artie', of the Regulation
of the State acknowledges, by virtue whereof I ;gain depufit my
; poll, as P,nfionary of the Council, in the hands of your High
Mightineffes.
I 0 This port I leave with an entire confeloufnefs, that every
i thing that has depended upon me has been directed to the happi•
nefs of my fellow eitteens. I leave this fit uatton thoroughly pene-
trated kith the role of, and the molt cordial acknowledgment for
the repeated proofs of the confidence of this Affembly, and of
my countrymen In general. I therefore offer my mutt Amen
thanks to all the Menihers of this Affembly, to your High Migh-
Uneffes, and to the whole nation, with the affurance that my re.
ljnembrance of the fame will prove to me the molt agreeable com-
panion of my retire nest. Waving the more Intimate relation •
&It, by which I have been conneded with your High Mighti-
nelfes, by virtue of my office, I pray that the all bountiful Pao.
VIDINCIL will take my eoultry, dear to me beyond every other
enabderation, under its fpecial guidarce and prote&ion, and that
the Atom:HT!' will further the profperity, the welfare, and im-
provement of its inhabitants ; and 'hat your High Mighttneffea
may alto experience the belt of bleglags to your perfons and
your families.
