yet despair of success—(Cheers). He remembered
the last election with feelings of gratitude and Of
pride. L those independent Gentlemen who then
supported Lim, -Wopld now come forward to poll, he
would soon be placed in a different situation.. He
would only add, that if he should have the hbnour
of their rapport, and be raised to the situation of their.
Representative, he would sacrifice life, interest, and
every • other consideration to the discharge of his
duties--(Great a ppLuse). . .
Mr. Alderman Warrmtas advanced amidst very
general appliiase. nitwithstanding, he said, the po-
sition in which his name stood upon the poll, the re-
sult of that day had fully justified the observations
which he made yesterday. He t‘id yesterday ex-
horted them immediately to com. 2. forward ; and
although, at the close of this day, there appeared to
have been 700 fewer polled than there had been, in
the s.tme interval, during the last Election, yet he
had himself increased, on this day's poll, 150 more
thAn he had polled on the fifth day of the former
contest—(l,,m el cheering). It was well known to
Lem all, that Saturday was a day upon which per-
sons conne:ted with trade, and all the industrious
classes of the community, were so entirely engaged,
t!iat it was always the worst one for those Candidates
who stood upon the independent interest. Monday
was, on the contrary, the day they were more in the
habit of sparing, and he looked with confidence to
the result of the next day's poll—( Applause ).
stood forward as a trader, as the Representative of

Vie trading interest, and it was on that groand that
he last received their suffrages. To that class
owed his elevation, and upon them he must now de-
pend for his suppOrt—(Cheers). In making these
observations, he by no means meant to cast any odium
upon the banking or mercantile interests, many of
whom had _honoured him with their support. He
knew that they formed parts of the general interests,
all gravitating towards the general good. But the
classes to which he alluded ought not to force a Re.
presentative altogether their own on the whole body
of the Livery, so as to make such a number depen-
dent on their will—(Flear, hear). So far as respected
himself, the result was of little consence; if suc-
cessful, it would not, as far as his private ease was
considered, beef any moment to him ; but he•thought
it would be of much moment to their own interests,
to support that independence and consequence they
had gained. He hoped his friends would make an
early effort to come to the poll on Monday. They had
it yet in their power to secure success, and he trusted
tliey would secure it. Ile implored them not to neu-
tralize their votes, as had been punned out, by giving
one Candidate a split vote, and his opponent the re-
mainder. The worthy alderman then alluded to
the private attacks which had been made upon hien
by some persons in the interest of his opponents,
which he dared them publicly to avow. Ile had
been a trader in London for the last thirty years, and
he dareij, any man to come forward to his face, and
charge him with the commission of any act which
need make an honest man ashamed—(Loud ap-1
planet). Indeed, this mode of attack was the best
proof that could be shewn of the efficacy of his pub-
lic services, when there was no other mode left for
his opponents than to calumniate his character. He
concluded by entreating them to persevere and•assert
their rights.
The Election was then adjourned until this day,
and the crowd in the Hall separated, after giving
three cheers. The LORD MAYOR was drawn home in
his carriage by the populace. The Lord Mayor of
Dublin was on the hustings at the close of the day.
