TO THE HON. W. H.iYMETON,
FOR THE COUNTY OF WORCESTER.

SIR-I am impelled thus publicly to address you,
by the natural desire which every man feels to vindi-
cate his character, when unjustly aspersed.

While discharging your duty as a British Senator,
ton are entitled to high privilege and protection in
the freedom of speech ; but it is a maxim which
never should be forgotten by an Englishman, that
where great trust is reposed, great justice is ex-
pected," and particularly when such privileged free-
dom is exercised on the characters of individuals who,
however they may possess the means, are excluded
the power of justifying themselves from aspersion.
- - - -

I have stood high in the public estimation for many
years, and I trust deservedly so, not only as a Licen-
sed Lottery-Office Keeper, but also as a Stock-broker,
and I am daily entrusted, even by persons to whom
I am a stranger, with large sums of money for the
transaction of business in the Government Funds,
which can only result from the long and approved
confidence that the Public have placed in my inte-
grity of character.
Now, Sir, I appeal to your own feelings, or to the
feelings of any honourible man, as to what must
have been the indignation of my mind, when I saw
. it asserted in the public Papers, that you had stigma-
tized indiscriminately the whole body of Licensed
Lottery Office; Keepers, " as a league of fraudulent
and criminal men, not more worthy of trust than
hangmen and informers ;" these words, not stated to
have been uttered in the heat of debate, but preceded
by the observation that you spoke from " the best in-
formation and an unbiassed conviction of mind ?"
' My first impression was, as a member of the body
of Licensed Ofce•Keepers, instantly and publicly to
repel the -assertion, but I was withheld by the appre-
hension that, in the moment of irritation, I might be
betrayed into some unbecoming expression of Indig-
nation ; and I was also influenced by the hope that ,
such cruel and unjustifiable asperity of language
would have been re-considered, and that the same',
.privilege which afforded you the opportunity, on
Tuesday night, to wound the characters of men who
could not be present to defend themselves, would have
becn exercised to remove the impression which such
unmerited language was likely to make on the public
mind. But disappointed in that hope, I am con-
strained to make my appeal to the tribunal of public
opinion, to which the oppressed never appeal in vain,
however high the oppressor may stand in privilege or
power. To this tribunal, Sir, Ido appeal, and call
upon you as a man of honour, either to establish the
charges you have made, or else to disavow them in
the place where they were made ; if you refuse this
call on your justice, the Public must decide whether
disgrace attaches to the accused or the aecuser.
I am, Sir, your humble servant,
Corakill. May 29, 1218. T. Butt.

g, To SAVI IS TO CAlN."—Those persons who may
be disposed to adventure in the present Lottery, will
do well to recollect, that so great was the demand in
the last Lottery, that the Price of Whole Tickets rose
from 19/. 10s. to 301. making Sixteenths 21. which
were at first but 1/. 7s. T. Bin' therefore invites his
friends to an early purchase at his fortunate Offices in
town, or from his Agents in the Country, who are now
supplied with Tickets and Shares in a great variety
of numbers.—The Lottery will commence drawing
on tip King's Birth-day, and contains 107 Capital
Prizes, including 3 of 20,0001.—F0r the splendid
List of Capitals sold by T. Linn in the Lottery just
finishes;, he refers his friends to a Printed sheet cf
particulars, which may be had gratis at his Offices,
or from his Agents, but which is too long for inser-
tion in s newspaper.
A circumstance not less singular than fortunate took
place some time KO. The Two Prises of 20,0001.
fell to the lot dime Ticket, which wassold by MAR-
TIN and CO.—AS kiS probable that the Sixth
drawn Prize'above 10001. this Lottery, will be a
40,0001.--we should not wonder if Mearin and
Co's. proverbial good fortune decreed that it should
be sold at their Offices, 8, Cornhill, or 190, Oxford-
street. Lottery bbeamslllllll3DAT. Three of
