Upon the poll being declared by the' Sheriff,—
Sir VIASCIS Bur:art addreffed the Meeting to
the following purport :—Gentlemen, you will per-
ceive from the poll of this day, that the exertions
which you have made fince talk I had the honour of
addreffiag lon, st!.,eady begin to be felt ; that the
tide has turned and fct in our favour (applooles).—
The hope, Gentlemen, which I have ever entertain-
ed of our final fuccefs, is coofiderably increafeci by
this event, becanfe
pallll recollat that this is the i
day upon which the has been %raft favourable to
us during the late as well as the prefern coriteß. This'
circumstance holds out to my mind the mutt encou-
raging profiled. Indeed the afforarices which my
friends have received, who have been good enough
to make applicatinas in my favour, and the promiies
made to myfelf in the course of my perfonal canvas,
fully guarantee that we fhall, on Monday next, make
farther and important progrefs in the advantage
which we have obtained today ; that in fat, Gen-
tlemen, the kale will decidedly turn in our favoar—
(ei").
entlenten, I thoold not think it need:try to take
by fo much of your time, day after day, in addraling
you, and thus detain you from that which is muck
more material to our common intereft, the protects-
tion of an alive aid vigorous canvas, if it were not
for the calumnies which are daily invented and pro-
pagated by our. adverfary and his agents. Whether
you regard the enclofures which are fent in circular
ktters to the feveral fieeholdets of the county—whe-
ther you regard the advertifements that are pithlithed
by our opponent Itimfelf, in which he charges ,your
efforts to maiiddin your independence as the foulefl
cool piracy—whether you regard the fables which ap-
pear in the hired public prints of the day, or the pla-
cards which are In widely diffufed in the capital, you
will find nothing but the fame Cuckoo note of " trea-
fon and perjury." If thole perfons will deal in falfe.
hood and calumny, they Ihould at Lalt thew fame
ingenuity, and not coailaritly perfill in repeating the
fame ablurd tale, and in almoil prectiely the fame
terms. It is unfortunate for their object, that their
calumnies are In widely and fo unfparingly feathered
over all the high chars ters who have honoured me
with their fupport ; that though their malignity is
great. the effea of it i.. impotent. By the uniformity
of their (train and method, and by the injudicious ,:if-
tribution of their flander, they ablolutely hale their
own pupae (aptieusfes). Thefe men them to have
adopted the maxim that "fufficient for the day is the
be thereof," but they fhould remember that the fame
lie will not fuffice for every day in the week ; they
&could, therefore, endeavour to vary a little their ca-
Inmnies, and thus give them fomewhat the appear-
ance of novelty, and not to allow them to grow Rale
in the hands of their cutlomers. By neglating this,
their invedives ceall: to excite the inttrelt of the pub-
lic. They rather provoke the driguft and indignation
of the liberal and the hone% becaufe, notwithfiending
the gr• felt charge againll my friends and me, they
have never attempted to tuttain it by any thing like
fad or argument It is not enough conftantly to keep
op the cry of t, treafon and perjury." It is rads and
indecent, and rottething mote, loosely to hazard fuels
accufations. If they have any foundation in truth,
why are they not immediately brought before the
proper tribunals, for inquiry and punithment (op.
?loofa) T Where there is no CwitICE•CC to fullain fuels i
accufations, how inveterate is the malice that can even
aIBfI in promoting their currency.
Gentlemen, the charge of perjury has been ad-1
vanced againfi my hiends. Had Inch a ferious of-
fence been imputed. to perfons in the humbler walks
of life, I have no oecafion to defctibe to you. the con-1
fequenees likely to fault. Every man mull feel that
it might produce the ruin of thole who are not plac-
ed in eircumllances to pintel them againft the afper-
fion. Fortunately, however- Gentlemen, it has hap
pened in this instance, that thole calumniators have
feleded men of coniequence and refratability for the
objets of their *collation—men who are perfatly
capable of vindicating then:delves—men whole inte-
yell cannot be atieded by any charge of this nature.
But yet I unit that every man of honour and libe-
rality will ticat ;:le fiat charge with as much indig-
nation as if the e..ln ui the gentlemen againll whom
g is pointed were the immediate confequence—(at
plauft.r).
Gentlemen, among theother flanderous libels propa-
gated against my charater, and which I pats by in
lentil, I rind in a morning Paper of this day, the fol-
lowing Crud, which purports to be addieffed to the

Gentlemen, I would elk, whether a more gref,
'ad infamous libel can be imagined by the mind of
man, and whether it is potable that a woman, a gen-
tlewoman, fhould thus obtrude bench upon public
notice—Mould fir far forget what is becontiog her

giving her iipport and tellinsony to an affertion, of
