To the GENTLEMEN, CLERGY, &a COUNTY DORSET.
NOTHING is talked t'f hot DUrolution of Patlia-
rnent, and with it the revival of the late co' teft of " Who
ball be Member for the County ? Ui rum borum ? Bani, or Port.
own?" I confider my friend Mr. Pitt as nut of the queftiop, and
the united voice of all parties will return him to Parliament in the
fame honourable manner it did before, hut his intercft In the County
of Dorfet is uttaffailahle as his charaeler in private life. I have
feen with ILI% indignation than furprizc the County already de-
luged with Mr. Brand's hand bills, announcing his intention, be-
fore Parliament is diffolved, of oppofing the Sitting Members.
I 7 ni s4prerume the attack is more immediately dirceted againft
Mr Portman, who, now Mr L. D. threatens to &flint the peace
of the County—who, in lofty language from the roftrttm (that is
the waggon) on the day of the !aft nomination, bellowed that
charge againft Mr. Portman and his worthy friends t whore ad-
vertirements. in woeful terms, depleted the confequence of fuch a
calumny ? What was then the occaf on ? Is there now a vacancy !
Has the Death happened—has the refignation of a fitting Member
now taken place ? Oh, no—bat what was a crime in one party
might he called a virtue in another. I muft admit, that a great
deal of foreners did take place among Tome, i hope very good. and
err ainly many very great men, on account of the triumph of Mr.
P over the confederacy that was leagued to oppore him—but the
gond haneft Yeomanry of Dorfet ; the free, the faithful, the inde•
pendent Freeholders, were no more to be ref:fled than were the
arms of their countrymen on the Plains of Maida.
Shall they now. by thwarts or artifices. by protnifes or perfua
Eons, by low intrigues, or by the band of hired agents. fuhmit to
be impofed on—and facrifice the objeet of their choice ? Will they
defers the caufe of Mr. P. which they fo nobly fup ported before ?
Has Mr. P. forgot them, or will he ever.forget them ? Is not their
confiftency. their pride. their hope, their independence, embarked
in the fame caufe : and dares Mr. B to intrude himftlf again on the
County, in opnofition, after a defeat fo fignal and dcferved as the
laft, can he hope for fuccefs,hut in the defertion of Mr. P.'s friends?
and will not the bare idea prove a rallying point, and retve to ce.
ment them ftronger ? Even his opponents allow that Mr. P fame
he reprefented the County, has done his duty as a man of hufinefs
and Member of Parliament, and has given entire fatisfaelinn tnthe
County. He muft even have pleated the Learned Jut'.ge Advocate,
who, in bis recommending fpeech of Mr. Banks, romewhat oddly
enough lamented there were fo many fpeakers in the Houle aireadY.
The dignity of charadter. however, is to be julged of lets from
fpeech than conduel. and there ought to be tome impeachment of
the latter, before the County is called upon to make a change.—
Arr. P's. only crime is, that he came in contrary to the wifhes of
many great men.
The right of Election is with the Freeholders alone—the inter.
ference of higher authority. (which in its proper rphere is the boa ft
and ornament of the land) here becomes a mirdemeattotar
Now allow Mr. B. all the qualifications he indite upon for him-
felf during laft Eleetion, it ever vibrated in our cars in the fpeech
that marked the concluding fcene at Dorchefter„ Come deference
was at trait then due to the judgment of the County: allow Mr.
B I fay, all thore ruperior pretenfions which he claims for hi off..lf ,
whether legitimate or not, yet will they Ibine with greater luftre in
the Reprefentation of the County, than in the Member for the
Borough of Corfe Cattle fuch a change I admit would yield im-
portant advantages to himfelf—to his Country nothing. i have
only to call on Mr. P's. friends to maintain thole Rights and that
Independence, in fupport of which they have made fo noble a
[l and already, and to be true to therr.:'clveA, to him, and the. County
of Dorfet. A BROTHER FREEHOLDER.
