The active meaacres which have already been taken by other Candidates for securing the Suffrages of the Livery, will, I hope, afford a sufficient apology for my soliciting this early the favour of your Vote and Interest at the approaching General Elections The motives which induced me to announce publicly. in Sep tember last, my determ:nation of not proceeding to a Canvass until the Dissolution of Parliament had taken place, have been, I hope, duly anpreciated ; whether I may tind myself compelled to adopt a different comae, must depend upon the twe:coding% which may be pursued by other Candidates ; but 1 beg, in the meantime, to as. sure you, that I shall avail myself of the earliest opportunity, whenever the flt period shall arrive, of personally wileiting your sic,mort, and of assuring yeti of the respect with which I hate the honour to subscribe myself:. , 6entkrnen, your ohelleat mid faithful 'arrant.

A FTER a long and arduous service for the apace of -CV tbirty.six years, as one of your Representatives, I feel I shall be compelled, on the dissolution of Parliament, to retire bares that post of honour anti distinction to which you have raised me. entertain the deepest sense •of gratitude for the undiminished at. tachment of my numerous friends, in pressing upon me a renewal of the high responsibilities of the situation I am about to leave ; and moat proud and happy should I be to second their wishes, were my health and energies equal to so important a charge, but age and infirmity have too much broken the one, and exhausted the other. With raped to my past political life, 1 refer you to my acts; they are its best illustrations , and more powerfu l than any words of mine, and in their appeal to your enlightened judg. meet, I only ask for the same liberal construction I have been ever ready to place upon the conduct of those who have conscien tiously differed from me—glorying, as 1 do, in the wisdom of a Constitution. that, while it OTilinate% Pa diversity of opinion. en. courage% ha free and full expression within the bounds of reason anti justice. 1 have been constantly watchful of your local interests, your chartered rights, and civic privileges, and my hand has incessantly laboured to guard them from every encroachment, and to give only a broader extension to their benefit. With a bosom glowing in loyal affection to my Sovereign, I have devoted myself to the sop. port of those great and sound principles by which the matchless fabric of the Established Government of these Realms, In Church and State, is based in the hearts of a free and happy people : nor, in my exultation on the triumph of these principles, can I forget those severe trials which proved their purity and power, as well as the faith and sincerity of my own advocacy of them—even through the dark and appalling titres that are past, when infidelity and detnocratiesl frenzy spread desolation over a neighbouring country, when the contagion almmt reached the heart of our own land, in sinuating itself into the fleet—when the religion of our altars, and the peace of our fire aides were threatened with destruction—when the arts or the arms of an intriguing or conquering despot had either weakened the good faith of our allies. or strengthened his armies against as with the increase of millions ; it was through such times I stood inflexible and firm in the avowal of the same opinions I now hold, and which (under the administration of those highly.gifted Rulers with whom it has been my happi- I nese to ameciate) have enabled the hark of the State to weather the sores ; and, after a long and harassing, though splendid war, to anchor at last in the haven of an honourable and gio. rious peace. And now, Gentlemen. after performing my duty to you and my country with an unshrinking and unwavering spirit, I retire in the calm of the assurance that you will entnist your liberties and pri wilegmeasly to mess who will keep and watch oyes them with a faithful heart and jealcus eye. while, too, I mar be permitted to repeat the old prophesy, in which my faith strengthens as my years decline— " That as long as there is concord and union of heart and hand at home, there is no species of apprehended danger front which England, so great in her own resource*, shall not arise, like the plitenix from the fire, with a free and unscorched wing." I beg to renew my heartfelt thanks toe your 1012 g-continued kind nesses, and offer n.y best prayers for your happiness as men, and your prosperity as a community.

It was resolved that the following Statement should be submitted to the Public : The Committee who have been entrusted with the distribution of the money subscribed for the relief of the distressed Silk Weavers in SpitaMelds. have now the painful task of announcing to the public, that while the funds placed at their disposal are very nearly exhausted, the distress which they were intended to relieve remains undiminished in extent and severity ; in point of fact, it may be said to have increased, for the relief which the Committee has been able to allow to persons with families, has been so small as barely to support them, and that but scantily, with the nem. stoles of life, leaving no provision for the payment of rent, or of debts, contracted under the pressure of distress, before the com mencement of the subscription. About seven hundred persons who have received relief, have now obtained a small portion of work ; but their places have been more than supplied by those who were at work, and are now wholly out of employ. The Committee have now been sitting every day (Sundays ex. center%) since the 31st of January, in the Vestry-room at Spiral fields Church, distributing relief ; and nearly sixteen thousand per. sons have been supported during the whole of that time, and are still supported entirely, upon the scanty pittance which they have received from this source. The balance now remaining in the Treasurer's hands does not amount to the sum required for one week's distribution. Under these circumstances, the Committee feel it their duty to make an earnest appeal to the benevolence of those whom Pros dence has blessed with the means of mitigating the distresses of their fellow-creatures; and persuade themselves that die foregoing simple and unexaggerated statement will produce such an addition to their funds, as may prevent the sudden drying up of those sources to which so many thousand poor persons have to look for the means of existence.

TO THE PUBLIC. HAVING submitted to you, my " best" Friends, agreeably to my usual custom, the Scheme, at length, of the present Lottery, I feel it will be unnecessary for me to say more than to express my grateful thanks for all past favours, and to assure you, I have been most anxious in this, my Farewell Con. tract, to retain and improve all the popular points of late Schemes, and I regret to state, This is the very last Lottery but one That will ever be drawn in England.

ROCK PERCH BATTERY, LIVERPOOL. Friday the Mayor and his suit left the Town-hall soon after one o'clock, and, attended by a numerous company, embarking from the Prince's Dock pler.liead of board the Ormerod steam-boat, proceeded to the Rock Perch, for the purpose of laying the founda tion-stone of a battery, to be erected there. An immense con. course of people assembled on the pier to see the embarkation. The discharge of a pie& of artillery announced the landing of the Mayor on the beach above the perch, where he was received by Captain Kitson and by Captain Price, R.N., who conducted hint to the spot prepared for the ceremonial. Several hundrid% of people of all ranks and ages had already as/mingled on the ground, and as soon as the whole of the company were landed orders were given for the workmen to commence the usual preparatory sienna. ments, and the Mayor, attended as before described, proceeded round the line of the intended works, and then took his station in the trench dug in the tack for the foundation, where he was pre sented by Captain Kitson with an elegant silver trowel made for the occasion. The preparations being now complete, the stone was swung into the trench, and gradually lowered to its proper pun Lion, when it was placed by his worship with the usual formalities of applying the square and plumb level, and striking on several parts at its upper surface with a mallet. As soon as the stone was laid Captain Kitson addressed the Mayor, and his worship made a suitable reply. On the upper surface of the atone was fewened a plate of copper, inscribed as follows : This Foundation Su ri: of the BOCK PERCH BATTERY, Projected by, and under the direction of, John Sykes Kitson, Esq. Captain in the Royal Engineers, For the Defence of the Port, Was laid on the 31st of March. 1826, By Peter Bourne, Esq. Mayor of Liverpool, la the 7th Year of the Reign Of his Majesty, , George the Faurth. His Grace The Duke of Wellington, Master-General of the Ordnance. The completion of the ceremony was hale 1 with three times three cheers, by the company assembled round the trends. and wi h a double royal salute from some pieces of artillery placed on the beach. The Mayor and his suite were then invited by Captain Kitson into a tent pitched within the line of the works, to drink success and stability to the Rock Perth battery, and to mated their presence at the laying of its foundation ; after which, his worship. with a considerable augmentation of his company, proceeded to re-embark. At this moment no less than six steam vessels. de corated with flags, were at anchor off the point; tl e 'teach within was lined with smaller boats, all of which had come f l'y freighted with passengers from Liverpool, to be present at the ceremony ; iu addition to those passengets, a considerable number of persons. on horseback as well as on foot, had flocked thither with the same object, and rarely, if ever, has that point of the strand of the rive.. Mersey been the seine of so animated and interesting an exhibition as that which it now displayed. The pent:Ramie view from thk point formed by the beautiful shore opposite, with the town of Li verpool rising in the distance, the forest of masts in its crow& docks displaying the colours of every nation, intermingled with a countless variety of signal and other flags of the most gorgeous c •. lours waving under a clear and cloudless sky,—for so fire 3 day ha not been seen for some time past,—wu altogether one of the the:: ever beheld. The re-embarkation completed, the steamers, Milan • by time fleet of smaller boats, plyed their way up the river town:, i Liverpool; the company on board the Ormessipataking of a eo:.1 collation, abundantly and liberally provided by the Mayor. and their arrival at the Prince's pier head, previous to landing, they s:. luted his Worship with three times three cheers, in acknowhe :• ment of his kindness and attention during the excursion ; to whi t he briefly answered by thanking them for the compliment they h been pleased to pay him, and for the pleasure of their conipan). The neighbourhood and town of Croydon was c0r. , .:- derobly agitated on Wednesday night by an alarm of tire, at .. mansion of John Moberly, Esq., 31. P., of Shirley }louse. wit .t was, however, happily arrested by the timely arrival of the Cr.- - don engines, aided by the engine from the depot of the Royal Waggon Train, and erthe:special control and management of . David Stove; to whose exertions upon this., as upon all she occasions, too much praise cannot be given. The fire originated the kitchen, from a beam which had immediate commurie.. I. with the drawing-room, the floor of which being tern up, > t gave an opportunity to bring the play of the engineers and thereby saved the elegant and costly furniture of Ills tit y magnificent mansion from the destruction that was threatened. A few days since a melancholy occurrence took pl a the house of Mr. J. H. beach, of Leeds, bookseller. Mr. , it appears had retired to his room, where he remained so long , excite the suspicion of his sister. Oho, Alien going to the up e ment, found the door locked. She succeeded in braking it when, to her dismay, she discoured her brother with his throat ~- t en a itest shocking manner, and a razor lying by his side; be: u s vital spark was not extinct. Surgical assistanee was immediate / called, and the unhappy man is now in a fide way for recovery. lt Is supposed that Mr. Leach's recent tailor* in business had oce.. donee a deptiesion.plr spirit., which led to the commission of this mebutcho/7 act. ‘i E 1 1
