N°. 18,640.] TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF FINSBURY. GENTLEMEN, I have been honoured with requisitions, numeromly signed, re questing me to become a Candidate at the ensuing Election for the representation of your Berou:th in Parliament. Possessing the confidence of a small, :but intelligent constituency , and not wishing to intrude myself upon the Electors of any Borough returning Liberal Members to Parliament, I solicited toe requisi tionists to afford me opportunities of ascertaining generally the wishes and feelings of the El ec t ors of the Borough of Fi n sbury. Public Meetings have been held in different parts of the Boroug h, and resolutions have been p asse d by larg,e majorities, affirming the principles of the requisitions, and pledging themselves to support me at the ensuing Election. A tteran opinion so widely expressed. and almost unanimous, I can no longer hesitate to declare myself ready to accept the onerous but high diStinction of becoming a Candidate for your suffrages. During the time I have had the responsible honour of a scat in Parliament, 1 have supported, by my votes, the great principle of Commercial and Religious Fr, eflom. of which I have ever been the advocate in private life; but in presenting myself as a Candidate for the suffrages of so large and important a constituency as the Bo rough of Finsbury, limits of an addres s w ill permit, to give you a general outline of my political opinions, I feel it to be my duty , a s tar as the narrow I AM IN FAVOUR OF .he Extension of the Right of Voting for Members of Parliament, and that, to protect the poor and honest voter in the free exercise of his suffrage, the Ballot should be substituted for the present mode of voting'. That the Duration of Parliament should never extend beyond Three Years, and the Act requiring a property qualification for Members of Parliament shmld be repea!ed. Attached to the principles of Free Trade, I will not only strenuously oppose ,every attempt to restore the Corn-laws, but will, with my utmost ability, aid in procuring the removal of all restrictions upon the free exchange of the products of our national industries with those of all other countries. Our financial policy, based upon no just political or economical principle, requires to be thoroughly revised, so as to reduce our expenditure, and render our system of taxation more equitable in its operations. In our Military, Naval, Diplomatic, and Colonial Establishments, large savings may be effected without impairing their efficiency. The Income Tax, Probate Duty, and Post-Hire Duty, are examples of the mode by which some classes of the community and some descriptions of property are unfairly and improperly assessed •: As one of the representatives of the people, lt:oefellclAp4r4ftrty to bridFavout; tiaeasitigly, to promote economy of expends are and to support the introduction of measures by which all classes may contribute their fair proportion to the revenue of the State. The reasons offered for the increase of our *tending army are, to my mind, inconclusive, and I have therefore opposed, and shall continue to oppose, a forced and unequal conscription in the form of a Militia. In a free state, religious opinions should not prevent either the enjoyment of civil rights or of political power, and I have always supported the removal of all disabilities on account of religious faith, and I have been, and shall be, the humble but energetic advocate of complete religious equality. I am opposed to the payment of any religious denomination from the taxes raised for secular purposes, and I am deeply convinced that a large amount of the demoralization and crime which unhap pily exists in these islands arises front a deficiency of education in the masses of the people. I should, therefore, give my earnest and active support to any measures which would diffuse sound secular education amongst all classes of my fellow-subjects. The Reform of the Court of Chancery, the Abolition of the Eccle siastical Courts, t , e Government of our Colonies, by and through their own freely-chosen representatives, are subjects which must occupy the attention of Parliament during the coining Session, and in the consideration of these great questions my conduct would be guided by the great principles of a steady, impartial, and inexpen sive administration of the laws, and of full, fair, and free popular re presentati , n. Believing that the freedom which is enjoyed by the British people is mainly owing to the diffusion of municipal institutions, and the exercise of the power of local self-government, I am opposed to the centralization in the hands of Government-appointed Commissions the Administration or control of local affairs, but that the people should govern themselves through their freely-chosen represen tatives. The vast and important interests in the Borough of Finsbury re quire from its Members of Parliament a careful attention to its local affairs, and should I have the honour to be chosen as one of your representatives, it will be my duty, as well as my pleasure, to devote an assiduous and energetic attention to the general affairs of the Borough, as well as to the imperial interests of the country, I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient Servant, Park Village West, Regent's-park.

This Institution was originally established under a different title in the year 1839, on the plan of admitting the assured to participate in four-fifths only of the profits ; but the Society has since been re mode'led so as to become a strictly " Mutual Association." The whole of the funds and property belong to, and are accumu lated for the exclusive benefit of the assured. The profits are divided annuallY among the policy-holders, and applied in reduction of the current year's premium ; thus constitut inn, in effect, an immediate cash payment to the assured. Half-credit policies are granted on terms unusually favourable to the holders. the amount for which credit is given being gradually li quidated out of the profits. Two Tables of Rates have been computed ; one entitling the as i-ured to participate in the profits after payment of five annual pre miums ; the other considerably lower, in which the period of parti cipation is deferred two years lomer : the premium ultimately payL l able by the assured is, however, precisely the same, whichever Table of slates may ill the first instance be selected. General meetings of the members are held annually, to whom lull and complete statements of the affairs and funds of the Society are submitted, and by whom the division of the profits are from time to time declared. At the Annual General Meeting held on the 27th April last. a di vidend of 30 per cent, upon the current year's premium was awarded to all members who had made the requisite flamer of payments on their respective policies.

Peatam Richardson, 23, Cornhill. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The memberS of the Legislative Body met on Wed nesday in their bureaux, to terminate the nomination of the Committee on the sumptuary Bills lately presented. The Committee consists of the following members:—The Duke the Duke d'Albufdra, Bsroo de Bussieree, Baron de Ravine', M. Ancel, M. Hallez-Claparele, M. Boissy d'Anglas, Count Frederic de I.4grange, and M. Desenuroux de Gnulmin, M. Favart, I+,l. Pongerard, M. Schneider, M. de Kergorlay, and M. do Ladoucette. Of these gentle Men, the first nine are opposed to the mea sures in foto; M. Favart is opposed to the Bill increasing the duty on the transfer of real property, whilst only the last four have signified their intention of supporting the Bills. A second Committee was also nominated, namely, on the Bill relative to the re-election of the councils-general, the municipal councils, and the coun cil,' of arrondissement. The Siecle dwells upon the cruel hardshirs which the proposed taxes on paper will add to the already over burdened and depressed daily journal. The papers on which stamp duty has lately been doubled, and whose interest has been almost lost by the restrictions imposed on the pens of writers, will now have to endure an addi tional fiscal burden, which, in many cases, will be:the last straw that breaks the back of the camel. It calcu lates that the tax will add nearly three-and-a-half francs to the journal supplied to the subscriber, without count ing loss on proofs stud waste, and the duty on the dif ferent- other sorts of paper consumed in the establish ment. All the trades into which paper enters will suffer more or less, and yet the gain to the revenue will be paltry. The respectable booksellers are preparing re monstranees against this impost. ...094g2t;tliug to. the Pays there will be an extraordinary session, of a few - Cra - inength, to enable the Corps Legis lay' to pass bills prepared by committees, amongst which there will be some railway bills.

On Wednesday the chief of the State had, it is said, an interview with the Commandant of the Chateau d'Amboise, who,. it was said, was taken to the Elys6a by the General S. ARNAUD, Minister of War, on the eve of the departure of the latter. -- - The Patric says:— "We have learned a fact which shows the popularity of the Prince President among the working classes. It is known , that the miners of Rive-de-Gier left off' work some days ago, in consequence of a dispute with their employers about wages. It is now announced that they are getting up a sub scription to send delegates to Paris, to submit the case to the Prince President, and take him for arbitrator."

Gentlemen, When you are again called upon to exercise your electorial privi leges, peculiar claims from the country will meet your attention. You have hitherto exercised your influence with the judgment and patriotism of worthy citizens : approving valuable institutions, and encouraging lawful commerce, by which the prosperity of the largest city in the world is maintained. You have shown y our approval of measures calculated to promote the greatest good of the greatest numbers, and have encouraged those whose daily exertions have been directed to this important object ; thus have you on all occa sions honoured the efforts of E. MOSES and SON, the Representa tives of the people, as Merchant Tailors, Clothiers, Hatters, Hosiers, Boot and Shoe Makers, and Outfitters to all parts of the world. Thousands are leaving our city and the country, but they do not leave the precincts of our Government, nor will they be forgotten in the Legislative proceedings of the British Parliament. Government has at its disposal 10,0J0(. for assisting Emigrants : to Australia they purpose dispatching eight ships every four weeks, which will carry about 2,400 persons per month ; add to this the tens of thou sands who go on their own resources, then what a form will this question assume, E. MOSES and SON are acting their part with the industry, experience, and success which has always attended their exertions. Their perfect acquaintance with the Outfitting bu siness renders them fully competent for the special claims of the times ; they have made the most ample and complete arrangements for supplying everything requisite for the emigrant, and their many years' experience enables them to do this superior and more reason able than any other house in the world. It is certain that all Emi grants sent out by Government or otherwise must have an Outfit, and for every class an indispensable Outfit is provided by E. MOSES and SON. This combines every essential to comfort for every Emi grant, whatever his profession or occupation, perfectly suited to his passage and his station. Every article of guaranteed utility and un riva led quality is comprised in E. MOSES and SON't superlative Outfits for the accommodation of Emigrants. E. MOSES and SON maintain a separate department in their gigantic Establishment ex pressly devoted to the Outfitting Branch. All necessary information gratuitously supplied to Emigrants. A full list of Outfits may be had on application, or post free to any part of the kingdom. CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON are under the necessity of guarding the public against imposition, having learned that the un tradesmanlike falsehood of " being connected with their Establish ment," or " It's the same concern," has been resorted to in many reasons. They have No CONNEXION WITH ANY OTHEIL TWUSE IN Olt OUT OF LONDON, except their own Establishments, as follows : Landon City Establiement, 154, 155, 156, and 157, riiinories, 83, 84 , 85, and 86, Aldgate, opposite the Church, all COmmunicati n g• - • - Linden West-end Branch, 506, 507, 508, Now Oxford-street 2, and 3, Hart-street, all communicating.

The Establishments are closed from sunset Friday to rnant on Saturdays, when business is resumed till Twelve o'clock. A new Book, entitled " The Library of Elegance," containing a full list of prices, and directions for self-measurement, can be had, gratis, on application, er forwarded, post-free, to any part of the kingdom.

NATIONAL ASSURANCE AND INVESTMENT ASSOCIATION, 7, St. ➢lartin's-place, Trafalgar-square, London. The investment of money wit'a this Association, which was established in May, 1844, on a plan peculiar to itself, secures equal advantages to the surplus capital of the aftlsent, and the provident savings of the industrial classes of the community, and affords an opportunity for realising the highest rate of interest yielded by first class securities, in which alone the money is employed. Moneys deposited with the Association, for Investment, are ex empt from liabilities on account of life contingencies, as well as the expenses of management, which are borne by the Life Depart ment, in consideration of the business brought to it by investment transac tions ; therefore, Depositors enjoy the entire profits yielded by their capital free from deduction of any kind—an advantage which no other Institution, either public or private, holds forth, or can afford, to its members. Interest or Dividend, is payable half-yearly, in January and July. Capital Stock, £lOO,OOO. The Capital Stock is altogether distinct and separate from the Depositors' Stock in the Investment Department. It constitutes , with the Premium Fund, a guarantee for the engagements of the Association, and has been provided in order to render the security of the Assured complete. LIFE DEPARTMENT. This Department embraces a comprehensive and well -regulated system of Life Assurance, with many valuable and important im provements. Full information and prospectuses may be obtained, on application at the H ea d Office of the Association, or to th e res p throug hout the United Kingdom. PETER MORRISON, Managing Director. N.B.

The Hanoverian plenipotentiary spoke strongly in favour of the tariffs fixed by the treaty of September 7. He maintained that the lowness of the tariffs fixed by that treaty were justified by the circum stence that in the Stenerverein the tariff increased the receipts by augmenting the imports. The press continues to discuss the object of the mission of AI, DE BISMARCK SCIICKNHAUSEN. It has already gone ins) tar in its revelations for it now to be denied that that diplomatist went to Vienna expressly for the affair of the Customs. A fresh conference took place between M. DE BISMARCK SCHCENHAUSEN and Count DE BIITOL•PHANENSTEIN on the 12th; the former will remain at Vienna for a fort night longer; the strongest hopes are entertained of the success of his mission. _ The Prussian Gazette announces that, in the sitting of the 12th, the states of Oldenbourg decided on the pure and simple accession of the Grand Duchy to the Prusso-Hanoverian treaty of the 7th September, Ha nover not having accepted the conditions which they had at first attached to their adhesion. The Emperor of AUSTRIA arrived at Ketskemel on the evening of the 11th. He was received with the greatest enthusiasm by the inhabitants. The town was decorated in the most magnificent manner in honour of his visit, and in the evening was brilliantly illuminated. Several peasants asked for and obtained permission to escort his MAJESTY from Cfegled to Ketskemel. The Aizqa-Chapelle Gazette of the 16th says:-- " General LAMORICIERE arrived here yesterday to take the waters, but he had scarcely alighted when the police gave him an order to return immediately to Belgium. The General knowing what measures had been adopted with regard to the French exiles in Belgium, had pre viously addressed himself to General DE ROCHOW, of whom he had been a colleague when in the embassy at St, Petersbnrgh. ,He had requested the General to in terfere in his favour with the Prussian Government. M. DE Rocuow replied that the Ministry would without difficulty grant him permission to take the waters at Aix-la-Chapelle. On the faith of that reply ho started for this place, but he has found himself badly deceived. The local 'authorities have only acted in virtue of superior orders. It is possible that it has been forgotten to have the promise of M. DE Rocuow followed by the necessary instructions." The King of :the BELGIANS arrived at Wiesbaden on the evening of the 12th. The Duchess of ORLEANS, with the Count DE PARIS and Duke DE CHARTRES, arrived at Ostend early in the morning of the 15th, and left in a few hours after for Germany. ITALY. The Illessaggere of Modena, of the 7th, announces that the telegraphic lines between Reggio and Parma, and t between Massa and Modena, have both been opened, and are at the disposal of the public. On the 31st ult., ninety-seven veterans, remnants of the French army under Lhe Empire, met at a banquet at Vico, near Mondovi (Piedmont). Their ages collec tively gave a total of 6,246 years, making an average of of 64 years and 143 days, or nearly 5 months. Cis tercian monks of the place placed their refectory at the disposal of these living relics of a stirring period, and the band of the national guard of Mondovi played at the banquet. The Giornale di Roma of the Bth announces the re turn to Rome of Count DE RAYNEVAL, the French Am bassador to the Holy See, from Paris. The Count of REISACH, Archbishop of Munich and Freisingen, arrived at Rome on the 7th. The Giornale di Roma publishes a list of thirteen in dividuals, condemned by the French court-martial to periods varying from 5 years to 6 months' imprisonment for wounds inflicted upon French solers.

The scene of the catastrophe was the " fire-barn" on Southsea-common, i n which is the laboratory of the Artillery corps at tached to the Marine division of this port, and where are ma d e and kept in store divers detonating missiles for the use of the Royal Marine Artillery battalion. Simpson, t half four o'clock, whilst Major-General L the i e utenant-Goeernor, of Port smouth, was in the o f inspecting the la borator y before-named, a Cls II c arcase " was ignited, when, from the presence of detonating powder, or some other improper ingredient hav i n g entered into the composition, it exploded with terrific results. The fragments of the shell were scat tered in every direction , s trikin g down the instructin g Sergeant (Wilson) of the laboratory, and fracturing his in tw o places. It is feared amputation mu ensue. leg Nic h o lson, a g unner, was also struck by another piece of t he shell in the groin, just escaping the femoral inflicting a wound three inches in extent, and artery,shatterng some of the fingers of both hands. The poor fellow fell upon the ground writhing in the most ceeruciating pain. The bugler of the party was also str uck under the thigh, near the knee. Major-General Simpson was struck by some of the pieces of the ex ploded missile on the cap and on the breast with co n. siderable violence, but happily doing him no serious harm. Colonel Menzies, MI. the Commandant of t h e Portsmouth division f the Royal M • armes ' who was standing, by the side of the Major-General at t he time of the explosion, was also struck, and his esc ape from lasting injury is most remarkable.

The Retribution steam-frigate has come into harbour to complete coals and provisions. The state of the weather has not allowed the Edin burgh to proceed to sea, but she is all ready, and yes tlrday and this afternoon she has been under weigh and working about Spithead under sail, exercising hew crew at tacking, wearing, and making and shortening sail. The Vulcan, 6, steam troop-ship, Commander Von Donop, has completed coals and will come out of the steam-basin on Friday.

The Gallant' Admiral will take the chair at the grand dinner given to-day to his Grace the Duke of Northumberland. A life-boat, the invention of Messrs. Richardson and Son, of Liverpool, arrived here on Tuesday, and has to day gone on to Ramsgate, where she is to try her pro perties with Mr. Bleaching's life-boat. Messrs. Richard son's is a curiously-constructed boat, built of iron, like two crooked cucumbers with their ends meeting, made hollow and air-tight. The deck is a platform. Between these she has no cabin. She has two low lug-sails and a jib. She is about forty feet long. She does not seem to work well, for in beating out of the harbour to-day she had always to use a lee oar; from her shape and bearing she cannot capsize. PLYMOUTH, THURSDAY.—We have experienced fcr the last three or four days very boisterous weather, with strong gales of wind from the southward and west ward. Her Majesty's iron screw steam-frigate Megmra, Master-Commander Barlow, has arrived in the Sound. She departed from the Cape of Good Hope on the 15th of April, and was left at St. Vincent's on the 24th of May by the General Screw Steam Shipping Company's packet Hellespont, which sailed from the Cape on the 2d of May, and arrived here on the 6th of June. Pas sage by the Hellespont, 35 days; by the Megfera, 61 days. The Megmra left the Cape on the 15th of April, called at Ascension on the 29th, sailed therefrom on the 6th of May, reached the Cape de Verds on the 19th of May, sailed on the 28th, and arrived at Plymouth on the 16th of June, at nine, P.M. She was 49 days at sea on the passage home, and is reported to have behaved well. Her average speed is 6 to 7 knots; under canvas, in a strong brcers, she has made 10 knots. From Sunday, at noon, to Wednesday, at eight, P.N. she made 658 miles. The crew have experienced no sickness since her absence from t ngland, and she is now in very cre ditable order. The Megasra brings about 200 invalids from the South African army, in chargo of Captain Harrison, 2d Queen's, who was wounded in the arm at the Water kloof; three soldiers and one marine died on the pas sage. Passengers—Colonel Sutton, Cape Mounted Rifles; Captain Duff, 74th; Lieutenant Sir David Baird, 74th; Captain Addison, 2d Queen's; Dr. Browne, 98th; Dr. Lloyd, Rifle Brigade; Lieutenants Pike, O'Reilly, and Bunee, R.N.; Mr. Russel!, master of the Seringapatam; Mr. Arthur, mate; and Messrs. Sullivan and nankin, michhipmen; Mr. and Mrs. Smalley, and Mr.Beechy. About four days after departure from St. Vincent's an act of great daring was performed. The ship was going six to seven knots through the water, when the captain of the maintop unfortunately fell overboard from the mainyard. Mr. Sullivan, with all his clothes on, imme diately jumped from the poop, a height of 20 feet, into the sea, and happily succeeded in seizing the man, who could not swim, and in keeping him above water until they were both rescued by the ship's boat. The Megmra, April 26, at 2 30, P.M., in lat. 14 44 S., and long. 6 32 W., exchanged colours with an American barque, showing a blue flag, with G. W. in it. Tuesday, May 4, at 9, P.N., weighed from Ascension, leaving there her Majesty's ships Tortoise, Polyphemus, Myrmidon, Jackal steam-vessel, Spy and Dolphin bri gantines; Jackal (Lieut. Bedingfield commanding, all well) waiting for the Commodore's arrival to proceed to England. May 10, at noon, in lat. 0 56 N., long. 16 25 W., hove to and communicated with the barque Eliza Thornton, out thirty-six days from London, and bound to Batavia, all well. Also communicated with the English barque Bengal Merchant, forty-five days out from London, all well. May 16, at 12 30, P.M., in lat. 12 37 N., long. 19.40 W., exchanged numbers with the English ship Dal housie. June 13, at 9 30, Lar., in lat. 42 45 N., long. 15 10 W., exchanged numbers with the English barque Dorcas. Mar Majesty's frigate Madagascar is ordered to be put in commission, and was taken out of dock yesterday. The steam-vessel Sprightly arrived on Wednesday from Portsmouth with seamen paid off from the Gladia tor, and seamen gunners for the Spartan. The General Screw Steam Shipping Company's mail packet Qaeen of the South, Captain Hyd e , w hi c h l e st on the 15th with mails for the Cape and Calcutta, put back into the Sound last evening. It is stated that she has some three or four feet of water in her hold, not caused by a leak in the ship, but by some defects in the pipes connected with her machinery, as when her en gines are at work she makes water, but when they are unemployed she does not, and the water is said to have flooded the engine -room before it appeared in the other parts of the ship. Orders have been received to pay off the Queen, 116. Captain Wise, all standing. In consequence of the change of the intentions of the Admiralty with regard to this ship, a new set of pay-books will have to be pre pared, by which the discharge of the crew will be de layed some twelve days or a fortnight. The officers in charge of stores and provisions are to remain on board of her until superseded. When re-commissioned, it is said, she will have a reduced complement as an ad vanced guard-ship. SHEERNESS, THURSDAY MORNING.—Her Majesty's ship Vestal, 26, Captain Cospatrick Baillie Hamilton. has been warped into the fitting basin.and placed un derneath the sheers. She has taken in her lower masts, and will be forthwith removed into the dry dock to have her bottom examined, caulked, and re•coppered where necessary. Her officers and men are hulked on board the St. Lawrence. Although the pendant was only hoisted a few days since, nearly the whole number of seamen allotted to her have volunteered to serve in her. For ships of her class blue jackets evince a preference. Her Majesty's ship Achille, 76, having had a portion of new copper placed on her bottom, and other defects made good, was removed yesterday from the dry dock to the north side of the fitting basin. Her Majesty's paddle-wheel steam-vessel Wildfi re i s undergoing a thorough rent in the discharging basin. Her Majesty's ship Supirb, 80, Captain E. Purcell, will not be paid off until the 19th instant. Her Majesty's ship Howe, 120, will be under the hands of the dockyard artifi cers f or several months to: come. The expenses of putting her into a state of effi ciency are eftimated at 40,0001. Some preliminary experiments connected with the an proachigro ng und of the dockyard, trial of anchors took place yesterday in the parade Mr. Day, midshipman, her Majesty's ship London, passed his examination in seamanship on board the Waterloo flag-ship, on the 15th.

The Hampton people, con t rary to the predictions of the weather-wise, brought off their " grand dav'ian-vwahyalled is so, seeing that the most i m p or t ant racing - the first day, it would be h ar d t o d e t er mine—with a a ly o c n cess as complete as it wa s u nexpec t e d. Th e weather ir:tuhe. morning was threatening, but a shower or two between ten and twelve o'clock failed to damp the courage of the metro politan lieges, hence the railway company started well filled trains every ten or fifteen minutes; the road and the river were patronized to an extent that carried us back to the "good old times" of the turf; and the gathering on the Hurst, by the time fixed for the first race, was really " pro digious;" taking it numerically, we may venture to assert that it has never been surpassed. To keep such a mob under, or to clear the course, required more than ordinary exertion on the part of the police, and it is bare justice to them to say, that they acquitted themselves with equal tact, energy, and success ; we did not hear of a single accident during the progress of the racing, and although the collisions after its termination were numerous, we believe there was nothing more serioes than broken wheels and panels. To expect a punctual attention to the " order of running," as regarded time, would have been simply absurd, and no one can have been surprised that the amateurs, who should have been in the saddle at thirty-five minutes past four, did not" per form" mail after six. Taking the meeting as a whole, we may congratulate the lessees in having given satisfaction to the public, and reaped for themselves a most abundant har vest; the receipts at the stands, and for the admission of carriages into the privileged enclosure, must have been enor mous. Tempted by the shortness of the drive from Clare mont, and the fineness of the weather, their Royal High nesses the Duke and Duchess de 'Nemours and the Duc d'Aumale, attended by General Salem?, visited the course, and remained during the greater part of the afternoon. The Dukes accepted the invitation of the Hon. Captain Roue, the only steward in attendance, and witnessed most of the races from their stand. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge again honoured the races with his p.'esence; we also noticed the of Drogheda, Lords Frederick s ta p Fitzroy, Euston, Ribbles dale, and Maidstone, Bana Nl gier, Count Bathyary, the Hon.
