Mr. A. M.. GtrTUIII„. ynnnyter, of Craigie, scoot:ded
the nomination ; and illePrelen hiving Palled the votes,
Ise addressed the' metOng thin t-i" In announcing the
ietult of the totes whit to be sure, is not a matter of
doubt to any one, I beg leave; Geitlernen, to eongra-
telatehlr. Maule on his re-ilectirin.as representative io
rParliament of • the county of Forfar; and I would add,
Gentlemen, a. WOrd of congr..tuiation for ourselves,
that without a struggle, and the harmony of the county
being unbroken, we have. retained—l will not say the
singular. honour, but certainly an honour by no 'means
!unirefial.in.this country-.that of returning a Member
to Parliament who is strictly and. entirely independent.
Mr. Monte has proved 'his independence in past times,
nut only by opposing the Ministers of the Crown when
he thought them in the wrong, but, in the last two Ses-
siops of Parliament, by the nianly and dec'ded support
helms. given these same Ministers, in certain great ques.
tionf, when they w.ese. threatened with desertion byl
their own friends. I ,will only add that Mr. Maule is
elected by the unanimous voice of the freeholders present.
.Mr. Maims said, " Gentlemen, it is no less gra:liy
ing to my feelings than flattering to myself, to be called
upon for the seventh time, to return you my warmest
thanks for the distinguishedhonour you have conferred
upon me by placing in my hands the guardianship of
the interests of this great and independent c..unty in
L.Karliament,-a trust the duties of which 1 shall endea-
vour to discharge to the bets pf my humble abilities.
I again return you mr sincere thanks, and hope to meet
ru..all by add by in the Town Hall."
. •At three o'clock,. about 150 Gentlemen sat down to
a mat sumptuous dinner in the Town Hall : Mr. Haute
in. the Chair; supported on the right by' Mr. Hume,
General-Hay, and .the Hon. Donglis Go, don Nally-
Burton ; and on the left by Gen. Kerr, and Mr. Meason,
•of Lindertis.
.The usual toots were drank with the accustomed
;honours. *-The health of Mr. Hume was drank; and
that Gentlemcnietutned thanks, in a speech, which he
concluded by assuring the meeting that if it should be
fortune to be again.;raurned to Parliament, he
would persevere in the.cnurse.which he had adopted,—

The Meecing•kiroke tip -ab Ont eight o'clock ; but this
early sepervition,does not I:falcate any want of hilarity
or..enjoyment, of which there 'was great abundance,—
Mr. Mauls ,had very judicioualrordered the dinner at
three aiclack,.instead of the usual fashionable hour;
and thsweelieced his..gnests from the tedium of a fore-
