The DEPUTY SUMP, informed the multitude,
that a certain number of Freeholders of the County
of Middlefex delivered to the Sheriff a written requi
fition, that the poll might be kept open as long is the
law allows ; and therefore the Sheriff declared, that
the poll mould continue to be taken for that time frost
day to day until Monday next, when it will finally
clofe.
Mr. Bye° returned thanks to thofe who had that
day come forward in his behalf. He obferved, that,
on Saturday left, Sir C.brillopher Baynes came for.
ward, and declared his intention of refigniag the
contell ; but it now appeared that the poll was to be
continued open to the final period which was allowed
by law. Mr. Byng Paid, he thought proper to de•
cline any compliment which might be offered to hint
at the expense of Mr. Mellifb, who had canvaffed
the county, declaring that he Rood alone ; and he
did fo, as he was bound to do, upon his word of ho-
nour. Mr. Mellilh and be differed in political fermi-
ments ; but he had no difficulty in acknowledging,
that if Mr. Mellilh was returned, he would owe that
return entirely to the free and usbiaffed fuffrages of
the Freeholders of the County of Middlefex. As to
himfelf, the Eleaors knew bin ' • and they knew hint
to be the fervent, not of the Minifter, but of the
people. They knew that he thought a Member of
Parliament was fent into the Houfe of Commons for
the good of the people. This was the principle en
which he aced, znd fhould aft to the end of his life;
and he hoped the Freeholders would now Rand by
him, as be had flood by them. His caufe and their
caufe was the fame.—[Applaufe.]
Mr. Mexusit Paid, that as the Hon. Baronet was
not prefent, it would be unbecoming in him to enter
into a detail of the accufation which had been made
aglinft him. He was however confident he bad
aced, and he &sold continue to aft, on the piaci.
plea which he profered when fira be became a Can
; and on that ground he folicited a continuant.
of the favour of the Eleftors. He referred to thoi
who heard him, whether he had ever attempted u
build his reputation at the menet of that of an!
other Candidate ? He folicited a continuance of tbs
exertions of his friends to the end of the poll, whisk
was to remain open until Monday next.

Mr. Sezzoe, (brother to Serpent SELLON), the

Mellitk and Mr. Byng had fplit their votes, or come
to an underßanding, and moved (veal refolotioni,
declaring Mr. Byng, from his conduit in Parliament
in the years tßoz and 1804, and at the dikuffon i
the late quellion between the King and his Minitteu
-unworthy to be their Reprefentative.
Sir W. Coarse thought, that if, after (even dap
poll, the friends of Sir C. BATelit did not come fru
ward, in his opinion the folk of the county ought ti
be taken, in favour of the other Candidates. The
conteß appeared to him to be now without profpt
