GENTLEMEN, A LTHOUGH the . result of to-day's Poll is a disappointment to me, I have.the gratification of finding that the charge of disturbing the peace ofyour Borou with-. out having had a prospect of success was, as felt, prom the first, groundless, and I now know that I not on y had as much right as-Colonel Pinney to offer myself as a Candidate for your suffrages, but .I also know that I am equally " THE ELECTED REPRESENTATIVE" of the Ancient and Loyal Borough of Lyme Regis. I cannot but lament the spirit of partisanship displayed by your Mayor, the Returning Officer, who, after he had actually admitted to my Agent, Mr. Bond, and others of my friends, that the Election had ended in a "DOUBLE RETURN," should thus take upon himself to declare that Colonel Pinney was elected by a majority of ONE VOTE ! Gentlemen,—The evidence of this Vote being recorded (if it be recorded at all) after the time for closing the Poll, is so clear and distinct, that the Select Committee of the House Of Commons, to whom your Mayor has thus forced an appeal by PETITION, will at once set Colonel Pinney's Return aside; and, if similar results occur which befel Colonel Pinney in 1841, he and his supporters may thank their mutual friend, the Mayor, for the consequences that may follow. My warmest acknowledgments arc due to you the One Hundred and Fifteen Electors who voted for me ; I beg your acceptance of them, and my assurance that I will continue, as I have begun, to fight your battles, and that of the glorious. cause of which I am the humble champion here, while life, and strength are left me. Those Electors who promised to vote forme, and those who promised not to vote against me, but have falsified their words, I leave to their own reflections ; I must, however, admit that there is even some little excuse to be made for them, if what I hear be true, as to the peculiarly irresistible influences brought to bear upon them. Again thanking you, my friends, for your kind exertions on my behalf, I have he honour to remain, Your obliged and grateful servant,- d. W. Wit 1:91.13,1". Royal Lion Hotel, Lyme, 30th April, 1859. I.IItITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH, Euston-road, London. The PRINCIPLES of the HYG-EIAN or MORISONIAN SYSTEM. • 1. The vital principle is in the blood. 2. Everything in the body is derived from the blood. 3. All constitutions are radically the same. 4. All diseases arise from impurity of the blood, or, in other words, from acrimonious humours lodged in the body. 5. Pain and disease have the same origin, and may there fore be considered synonymous. 6. From the intimate connection subsisting between mind and body, the health of the one must conduce to the serenity of the other. 7. Proper purgation by vegetables is the only effectual mode of eradicating disease.. _ _ 8. The discovery of a vegetable compound capable of being digested and mixing with the blood, so as to impart to it the energy requisite for ridding the body of all impurities, was a desideratum. 9. This discovery was made by JAMES MORISON, the Hygeist, in the composition of the vegetable universal medi c:ne (Morison's Pills and Powders) of the British College of Health, Euston-road, London. TO TIE TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SIX WORTHY AND INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF - TAUNTON, MY HONOURED SUPPORTERS. GENTLEMEN,-LI deeply thank you for having in my person, as a Ballot Candidate, so effectually pro claimed to your fellow-countrymen the existence of a large amount of sterling principle and patriotism in the constitu ency of which you form so important a part. With three formidable and influential opponents in the field (one of them having the strong ties of something like thirty years' representation, another a twelve years' conneo tion)—with no canvass, no books, no solicitors, no committee, no favours--with no machinery whatever but PRINCIPLE and the POLL—well, indeed, may we exult at having num bered two hunclred and fifty-six votes out of a voting consti tuency of about 700. We stand proudly alone in the country for the noble example we have given. Although defeated, it may be fairly questioned whether the elected candidates are in so exalted a position as that in which you have placed me. In my person you have redeemed the damaged reputation of the constituency, and raised it to an elevation which your countrymen will applaud, from one end of the kingdom to the other. Such defeat unerringly points to FUTURE VICTORY.. All honour to the Constituency of Taunton ! Who will talk of its disfranchisement now? Ever your grateful friend and neighbour, WILLIAM BEADON. Otterhead, 30th April, 1859. It is well known that Mr. Labouchere's majority would have beeh considerably larger had he been a supporter of the Ballot. He was freely told on his canvass by many of his old friends that they would have had much greater pleasure in voting for him had he been in favour of that measure. GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.

A letter from Mexico, dated April 4, says : On the 2d a small column of the enemy, of about sGovern mente 1,000 men, attempted to surprise the forces of the Government at one of the gates of this city. plans h o y f the spies enemy at Nver were Zacubaya, an discov ered dth t e e the congu nee e The was, the Government had about 3,000 men ready Sanos) to resist th e a a t t t t a h e. ekpoTihnet enemy(th (the gate of up at Cme half past four in th e f morning, and charged gallantly • upon the Govern ment works. At the first char but promptly re-formed and ge they were repulsed, passed the barricade, taking four charged again, and horror . they found the great guns. To their ment in reserve, and fell backforce of the Govern were pursued by the Government; on their retreat they abandon two of the and were forced to far, but captured guns. They did not re treatchurch of San reorganised and took possession of the distance of the Antonio,San Cosme. which is within rifle shot From this point they commenced a deadly fire upon the Government i forces who were nursuit : who were so completely cut up th a t they fell back in great disorder behind their ent re nchments. Several attempts were after wards mad e t o dislodge the enemy, but all fared as the first charge. At 10 a.m. the battle ceased, and at about seven in the evening the enemy retired in good order to Zacubaya. The loss of the Govern ment in this battle has been very heavy. Esti mates differ; but I consider it fair t o set down the killed at 250, the wounded at 400, an d th e deser tions to the enemy at 350 more, which will make a total of 1,000 for the Government. The loss of the enemy was comparatively light, I think not more than 200, all told. The forces of the Government were completely panic stricken at the gallantry of the enemy, and their shots had but little effect. The Government officers who were in the action all agree that they never before witnessed such gal. lantry on the part of their countrymen. The enemy were led by Colonel Lane, formerly a captain in her Majesty's Cavalry service. On the evening of the 3d there was an alarm in all the military qua rters of the city. The troops were out, and about 20 shots of 36-pounders were fired from San Cosme, but i t seems that the cau se of alarm was the approach of a herd of cattle towards the Garita. The demoralisation of the Government forces i s daily on the increase. It may in truth be sa id t h at the Government now only exists from the moral support given it by the English and French lega tions. Were this support withdrawn the Govern ment would fall in the same hour, or at I should here say that our Minister . is least day. the only mem ber of the legation who now holds out for the Government. All the others have to witness with mortification the prostration of our flag for the miserable church tyranny wader which we liTe. LIBERA • THE NATA 47, MAJNINING THE NATY. . . -The following--correspondence _relating to this subject has been forwarded to us, for publication ard of Trad e , May 2, 1&59. " Sir,—l am directed by the Lord'sOrthe 'Committee of Privy Council for Trade to req i nest that you will bring to the immediate notice of the Loca Marine Board the enclosed copy of a letter which my Lords have received from the Admiralty, seeking for the earnest co-operation of the Local Marine Boards in promoting the measures which the Admi ralty are taking with a view to the defence of the country, if necessary, and to the protection of those great interests which may be jeopardised by the present state of Europe. " The Local Marine Boards and shipping masters can give most effectual assistance to her Majesty's Government by using the great influence they possess over the merchant seamen of the country in such a manner as to induce that patriotic class of men to accept the liberal offers which her Majesty's Government are making to such of them as may enter her Majesty's service. - " My Lords feel that it is sufficient for them to bring this matter to the notice of the Local Marine Board and of their officers, to insure their cordial support and assistance.-- I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient servant, ' 4l T. H. "To the Chair man o f t h e Local Marine FA Board."RRER. " Immediate. " " Admiralty, M a y 2, 1859 . Sir,—l am commanded by my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty to request that you will move the Lords Commissioners of the Privy Council of Trade to urge upon the Local Marine Boards to lend their cordial co-operation to the Government in preparing to uphold our great inte rests; which maybe jeopardised by the unfortunate state of Europe. For this purpose it is desirable immediately to increase the naval force of the kingdom, and in order to in duce sailors to enter the Royal Navy on the present occa sion, a bounty of £lO has been offered to able seamen and £5 to ordinary seamen. 9 * - Inot doubt but that this liberal ;offer will be patribtic spirit which has always been ma ad by British seamen in times of national emergency ; I they feel confident that when the necessity which exists for their services is made known to them, it will in sure their cordial acceptance of the invitation. " It is therefore with entire confidence that :47 lords would call upon the merchants, shipowners, and ethers at , -our .commercial - ports IQ exert their influence for the public and common good, by encouraging the seafaring population to respond to the appeal which has been made to them.—l am, sir, your most obedient servant, \." H. CORRY. " Sir J. E. Tennent, &c., Board of Trade." The replies to the appeal, so far as they have yet been received, are, we understand, quite satifactoxy. Mr. Duncan Dunbar, the chairman of the London Local Marine Board, and Mr. Green,,the owner of the Sailors' Home and Shipping -office at Poplar, have shown every disposition to co-operate and have given prompt instructions to that effect. THE CUTTING ASUNDER OF A FIFTY•GUN FRIGATE. This ingenious operation took place to-day at Portsmouth. The subject of the operation was the Sutlej, 50, sailing frigate (built at Pembroke), which was cut through something more than one-third her foreward body. The ribands had been previously cut through, and the afterpart of the forebody of the ship bulk-headed and made water-tight in the inside lower department ; two purchases were at tached to the bow timbers ; the centre of gravity was calculated to a fraction, and the water was let into the dock. In a few minutes the fore part of the vessel was afloat, was hauled ahead, and a gap of some 48 feet appeared amidships. The whole per formance reflects the highest credit on the master shipbuilder and his officers. The Sutlej will be also lengthened by the bow some 12 feet, and by the stern 13 feet, making her, when complete as a screw frigate, about 260 feet in length. LAUNCH OF THE HOOD. According to previous, announcement, her Ma jesty's ship Hood, of 3,232 45-94 tons burden, and built to carry an armament of 91 guns, was wedded with the ocean yesterday. The preparations were on a grand scale, and the booths for the reception of the distinguished spectators which were erected in front of the noble ship were aranged and com pleted in a style that reflects much credit on the officer who designed them, and under whose direc tions they were fitted up. The whole formed an extensive amphitheatre, the tiers of seats rising one above another were for the officers of the garrison, naval and military, and the principal families of the neighbourhood. The hour appointed for launch ing was one p.m. The dockyard gates were thrown open to the public at 12 o'clock ; every available ' position of viewing the ship and the operations was occupied by crowds of persons of both sexes. The preparations for the ceremony were inspected by the distinguished visitors on the platform erected for the purpose. At the appointed time, 0. W. Lang, Esq., master shipwright, led the amiable sister of Lord Hood, and granddaughter of the late renowned Lord Hood, to that part of the platform where she was to officiate. Miss Hood, having' dashed the suspended bottle of wine against the bows of the noble ship ,named it the " Hood," which was cheered by thousands with " three times three," the Royal Marine band striking up " Rule Britannia." The work of splitting out the blocks from under her keel was then effected ; and the lady with the chisel and mallet severed the line to which is suspended the iron ballast that in its descent knocks away the dog shores, and in a moment the ship glided down the slip into the river, amidst the cheers of about 9,000 persons. She is sister ship to the Orion. Her draught of water is 15 feet forward and 21 feet aft. The fol lowing are her dimensions : Length between he r p er p en di cu l ars 238 10 Keel for tonnage .. .. 200 10/ Breadth extreme .. 55 9 Breadth for tonnage .. 55 0 Depth in hold .. 21 0 The Urgent, screw steam troopship, is expected to embark troops at Portsmouth, for conveyance to Gibraltar, about the 9th inst. The Swinger gunboat has been hauled up on the slip way at Haslar to have her boilers lifted and replaced on cast iron sleepers. The Hannibal, 91, screw steamship, at Portsmouth, was undocked yesterday, after cleansing copper, &c. She is shipping hands at that port successfully. An Admiralty notice has just been issued inviting applications for duly qualified persons to serve as second masters in the Royal Navy. In consequence of a sudden order received at Pembroke dockyard from the Admiralty the whole of the seamen riggers belonging to this establish ment proceeded this morning to Sheerness for the purpose of assisting in navigating the line-of-battle screw steamer Royal George, 102, round to Ports mouth. _ — The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty : Captain—A. De Horsey, to the Brisk, commissioned. Commanders—C. H. May, to the Persian, commissioned ; C. W. Hope, to the Flying Fish, commissioned ; G. H. Marriott, to the Intrepid, commissioned ; A. G.

The number of men who arrived at Chatham was about 300 of all ranks. _ _ The companies of Royal Engineers now at headquarters, Chatham, were assembled on their parade ground at Brompton barracks on Tuesdayafternoon, for the purpose of hearing read the sentence of a district court-martial passed en a man of extremely bad. character, Sapper Jas. Lloyd, who was tried for desertion under very ag gravated circumstances. The prisoner joined the Royal Engineers in the early part of 1858, and after receiving the high bounty usually paid to re cruits in that branch of the service almost imme diately deserted. He then enlisted into the 60th Rifles, where he defrauded the Government of an other bounty.

BUNCOMBE, M.P.—Yesterday this gentle man personally waited upon many of his leading supporters in the late contest, in order to convince them of his being still alive, a report having obtained extensive currency that he had died very suddenly immediately he had been declared elected.
