In the former instanee you gave me credit for that love of
liberty which has signalised our County in the annals of his-

sincerity by the surest criterion—my conduct in Parliaitteiti.

lieSTLassan,
1$11" former Address was presented to yon pre-
"- rious4 to the Dissolution of Parliament, and to the
discotery of a plot so foul and murderous, as scarcely to
find in our language an epithet adequate to its enormous
atrocity. At the contemplation of villainy so flag".::iits. sod
of cruelty so savage. I shot.:.) have beeo among the first to
have testified in abhorrence, had it been possible for me to
have known of Its existence before toy Address as. for-
warded for publicatioa.
To prevent. how.% e.. all invidious mibconstruction. I think
it expedient to state, that my polities' opinions, which it is
my pride and pleasure to avow, would have prompted me
to have aappnrte.l all such measures as I might have deemed
necessary• to trace and rescind all the ranti:ii niion. (if any
exist) of this most de:estable conspiracy. inimical to liberty
and humanity, and utterly foreign to the character of the
English people. Contrary to expectation, Ministers did not
apply for any new powers, sad hence it may he concluded,
that these diabnli • I purposes (which It is, however, conso-
latory to think have excited the execrations of every class
of the commniiiiy, and which appear to have been frustrated
by the compunction of accomplices, rather than by the in-
tervention of any of the late Legislative measures), were
coughted to the cankered hearts of an insulated band of con-
spirators.
The detection of all the participators in this meditated
crime. I comvider of the greatest importance. in order that
the guilty on this occasion should be distinctly separated
from those who otherwise may indiscriminately be made
the objects of stispieion, with a view insidiously to bring
into distrust the professions of the friends of Parliamentary
Reform.
I beg to repeat, that in the event of being honoured by
re-election, I am firmly resolved to resist all polemicist in-
road'', that, in any conjuncture. may be attempted upon our
laws, as established upon the priamples asserted at the Re-
volution. being persuaded, that to them only we are indebt-
ed for that degree of private happiness and national glory,
the comeequeness of public liberty, which have formed our
proud distinetioa amongst the eountries of the world,
I beg to subscribe myself, with feelings of respect, Gen-
tians*, your faithful gamut. •
