entity. On the last Election, a reserve of one thou-
sand voters had held back till the two lastikeys, and
the Gentlemen of the Livery knew what an advan-
tageous turn that reserve had given to that ElectiOn
and to the cause of Freedom. . Hebad many toladp,
vise with, who knew the manner in which.an Eke-
tion ought to be conducted ; and as the management
of the reserve was cdnfided to his Committee, his
friends ought to trust to them, and to push forward
without taking any Rodeo of what might be wanted
at the close of the poll. He had the best. support he
could wish for, and such as 'gave him no reason to
despair of ultimate success. Ills frieadi attended
from public principle, and were not influenced_by ist-,
terested motives. Their chief anxiety was to give
him their suffrages in the manner best calculated to
serve his cause. He found this to be the case upon
[his canvass, and upon the occasion when he was so
triumphantly returned at the Common Hall; and he
knew that nothing was now wanting but the.zeal and
activity of his friends in voting for him as early as
possible. He had the fullest cokfidence of success;
for he did not recollect any instance in which the
poll had been filled up so slowly as oa the present
occasion. -They had seen a great number of voters
pressed forward by their adversaries that day, who,
if they had possessed any confidence in their strength,
would have been kept back for some days longer.—
When he saw these persons. pushed forward .at so
early a period— when he. considered that the sup-
porters of his adversaries were pressed men, and that
his own . were all volunteers—his confidence of ulti
mate.success was increased. He had one suggestion
toisropose to his fl lends : it was, that they.should,
immediately on leaving the Hall, meet together in
their respective districts, and encourage each other
to come forward as early as possible to give their
suffrages. All that he should now do would be to
thank them for the support they had already given
him, and to encourage them not to relax in their ei-
ertions, which was all that was necessary to make
their triumph complete and effectual.
' The Meeting then dispersed. Aldermen WOOD
and THORPE, on leaving the Hall, were recognized,
and loudly cheered by the populace, who, on their
getting into Alderman Wog:till's carriage, took out the
horses, and proceeded to draw the two Candidates
to their respective homes.
