JULY 19, 1856• F TO THE ELECTORS OF ROME THE BOROUGH OF Gentlemen, THE e l ev ation of your late Member to the House of Lords lies caused a vacancy in the Representa tion of your Borough, for which I have been solicited to offer myself. In asking for the high honour of your support, I . have the pleasure to know that I am not addressing myself to strangers, but to those who a:e connected with my family by old associa tions, and in whom I have ever felt a lively interest. In announcing myself to your notice as a " Conservative," I hope and believe that I am not less liberal in my views and opi nions than those who would arrogate to themselves the exclu sive possession of liberal opinions. The true policy of evevy real Conservative must be to advance with tho times in which we live, and I should be found a zealous supporter of every measure of useful reform and social progress which tended to the interests of my fellow-countrymen. I am not a member of the Administrative Reform Association, but I am equally anxious to forward all useful and practical measures for improvements in the public service, and for recog nising the claims of merit alone; and I doubt not that economy and efficiency will be alike promoted by a searching investiga tion into the present mode in which patronage is administered and the public department; conducted. I am a sincere Protestant, and an attached Member of the Established Church, but I consider all classes of my country men entitled to equal freedom in the enjoyment of their Bell gion. I cannot, however, support the Maynooth grant, because I believe it to be objectionable in principle ; and though I would advocate equal rights to all, I see no reason why the Homan Catholics should have a preference over every other class. Upon the subject of Church Rates, I should bail with satis faction any plan for putting an end to the heartburniugs and divisions which now attend the question; and 1 would support any well-devised measure for providing a substitute for the present mode of rating, and which, while it would preserve our venerable fabrics from falling into decay, would, at the same time, allay the conscientious scruples of those who now feel aggrieved. I cannot view the present position of the country as satisfac tory, or one that an Englishman should be proud of. Having hardly emerged from one war, which, whilst it added glory to our arms, anti proved the spirit of British sol hers, at the same time showed the culpable negligence of the Home Government, we appear to be fast drifting into another, from similar incapa city; while the nation is insulted and lowered in the estimation of the world, and all discussion in the house of Commons is sought to be stifled. Should your suffrages confer upon me the proud position of Representing you in Parliament, it will be my constant aim to uphold the honour and dignity of the empire; and my humble endeavours shall never be found wanting in promoting the local interests and prosperity of your Borough. I remain, Gentlemen, your faithful Servant, EDWARD THYNNE. 39, Wilton-crescent, Belgrave-square, July 8, 18116.
