To the ELECTORS of the 1101tOUGH of IdAIitYLEIIOI4 E. Gentlemen, T Must in the first place condole with you on 1 the p.emature decease of your late lamented Representa tive, whose cal -sacrificing liberality and philanthropy have idea tilted the name of Dudley Stuart with hatred of oppression, and sympathy with dieuess. The vastness of the Constituency, which justly gives it so much influence, and renders the seat such au object of honourable ambition, will preclude, I. regret to say, the possibility of my per sonally waiting upon each of you during the short remaining interval before the Election. lf, however, you do me the great honour of approving me as the tried friend of civil, religious, nud commercial freedom ; as the pro moter of good local self-government, and of that efficiency in local administration which is the only true economy ; as the sup porter of extended franchise, general education and sanitary re form ; and as the advocate of Use present just and necessary war— e war undertaken in concert with our brave French neighbours for the purpose of checking the encroachments of despotism, and of ultimately, with God's blessing, conquering for Europe • safe and honourable peeve; if, above all, you feel with me that we ought to strain every nerve to succour effectively and at once our struggling forces in the Crimea, the wasted survivors of that gallant army, so lately embarked from our shores iu the pride of health, of equipment., and of numbers; if you agree with ma that we are imperatively bound to reinforce and re-tit, without *tint, that sadly diminished baud of heroes, whose noble prowess and requited humanity, whose devoted obedience and uncomplaining endurance, make us proud of the name of k:ngitahuieu, but whose losses, privations, and sufferings it makes our hearta bleed in the midst of our exultation to think upon ; if, on these terms, and with these sentimonts, you place me in the proud pos , tion of your Representative, I shall endeavour to merit your approbation, and testify my gratitude by a diligent attention to toy public duties, and a sedulous promotion of your local interests. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, EBRINOTON. P.S.--I hope to be able to communicate personally with every Elector, through the medium of meetings to be held iu different parts of the borough.

I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your faithful servant, EBRI Central Committee-room, Portland Hotel. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF Follow Electors, AT the present crisis I think it a duty I owe to you to state a few reasons why' I am compelled to oppose JACOB BELL and support Lord EISRINGTON. 11 Jacob Bell voted fur the Tory candidate in opposition UP the late Lord Dudley Smart, whose memory he protease* to revere and whom he wake to succeed. Jacob Bull. when he gave hie subacription to the Patriotic Fund did it publicly under protest, wiainug it distinctly to be understood that he neither approved of or sanctioned the war. Jacob Dell, who now to suit his purpose calls himself • Re former, never mended Joseph Fiume rod the Olitef advooares of the liberal cause. Jsoub Atoll ha* just proclaimed partially in favour at the Bel• lot, but when Member for ht. Albans he lett We Haw to avoid vodug for that measure. Jacob Bull now es pi that in order to ensure a last*, peace to Europe, Poland must be restored as a Kingdom. although he never 6301440 d Llitt late lamented Lori* Lindley Stuart by sym pathising with the friends of Poland in public matters or other wise. The political views of Lord Ebriugton fall abort of say ewe, but his antecedents prove him to be boned' to Use full extent of his protemion, while those of Jacob Dell prove him to be point rally dishoneet, therefore let us honour character aa4 consis tency, and without heaitatiuu reject Jaoob Yours, ,te., &c., J.
