PROSPECTUS This Company is formed for the purpose of purchasing, working, and further developing several valuable and ex tensive Tea Estates in Upper Assam, in British India. These Estates, which will be conveyed to the Company partly in freehold and partly on perpetual lease, comprise in all not less than 16,000 acres, chiefly of fine forest land, the bulk of which is admirably adapted for Tea cultivation, and are situate in the Luckimpore, at a distance of from six to twenty miles from . Dibrooghur, the principal station, in proximity to the rivers Tingri, Dikhom, Dehing, Tiplin, and other streams, and to the two chief roads of the district. They possess the advantage of a considerable supply of local labour, and the suitableness of the locality for Tea planting, as to soil and climate, has been sufficiently proved by the success with which the cultivation has hitherto been attended, both in these gardens and in those of the principal companies already established in that pait of Assam. Between Dibrooghur and Calcutta there is constant com munication by steamers, affording facilitiei for the supply of imported labour to the Factories, and for other require ments, as well as for the conveyance of their produce to Calcutta. Of these Plantations, 1,G85 acres are planted in Tea Gar dens, the particulars of which are subjoined. The produce of the Estates has obtained a high reputation in the Lon don Market. _ _ A minimum yearly dividend of 10 per cent. on the paid up capital, payable half-yearly, has been guaranteed, in part by reduction of the purchase moneys, in other part by the placing of a competent stun of cash in the hands of the Directors,' and also by the deposit of the debentures in which the purchase moneys are to be paid; the whole of which securities afford, in the judgment of the Directors, a most ample security for a dividend at £lO per cent. dur ing the first three years in case of need, but which the Directors, however, do not contemplate will arise. After the expiration of the third year, as nearly all the Planta tions will be in full bearing, it is confidently expected that considerably larger dividends will be progressively rea lised, and the calculations from which this result is arrived at have been made altogether exclusively of any return from the sale of tea seed. _ _ _ The price for the property has been fixed at £168,500, payable by annual instalments, with'interest at 5 per cent., extending over a period of five years, as follows, viz. : On Allotment of Shares £28,500 31st July, 1866 38,000 17 17 1867 33,000 17 71 1868 20,500 71 71 1869 18,500 „ ~1870 30,000 Total £168,500 Provisional contracts for the purchase of the Estates have been executed. Eleven thousa'nd shares have already been applied for. No promotion money whatever will be paid, and the pre liminary expenses will be strictly confined to what are in dispensable to the formation of the Company. It has been stipulated that, in order to give the Company the benefit of his knowledge and experience, one of the vendors should join the Direction. The Articles of Association and Provisional Contracts may be seen at the Offices of the Company. In consequence of inquiries which have already been made, the Directors have decided to receive a limited number of applications for shares fully paid-up, participating in the dividend from the date of payment. Applications for Shares to be made in the accompanying forms to the Company's Brokers, Bankers, or Secretary, from whom prospectuses can be obtained. London, Stine 1865.

GREAT YARMOUTH. Sir E. 11. K. Lacon and Mr. J. Goodson, chair man of the Great Eastern Railway Company, the Conservative candidates for this borough, addressed a crowded meeting at the Star Hotel on Saturday evening. Each gentleman declared himself opposed to a reduction of the franchise and to the ballot. Sir E. Lacon, however, expressed himself favourable to a conditional abolition of church rates. On the same evening the Liberal candidates, Mr. Brogden and Mr. Marsinnan, addressed a very large assembly•of electors and non-electors outside the Angel llotel. The proceedings were of an enthusiastic character, and a determination was expressed to go to the poll. Each part*lairus to have had a brilliant canvass. KING'S COUNTY. Mr. Pope Hennessy has issued an address to the electors of King's County. He says " From the principles on which you elected me I have never for a moment swerved, and I now reaffirm the un broken pledges of 1859. I do not believe that reform will be the battle-cry of the future. Ireland will be the ques tion for the new Parliament. England and Scotland exhibit popular content and general prosperity ; but with us it is very different. Our people—the ultimate source of national wealth and national strength—are rapidly leaving the country. Tho Queen's Ministers voted against my resolu tions on this subject, and refused to express the slightest regret for the grievous decline of the population. Wore they guilty of no other act of neglect and misgovernment, that alone should render them unworthy of our confidence. It is not, however, the first time that Liberal professions and Whig principles have deceived and destroyed the people. No Government shall ever receive my support which is not prepared to stake its existence on the fulfil ment of a just and generous policy to Ireland ; such a policy as will unite and not divide our various interests ; above all, such a policy as will effectually preserve the Irish race." LEICESTERSHIRE (SOUTH). Both Liberals and Conservatives claim to have a majority of voters in this division of the county, but it is understood that Mr. J. T. Paget, who was to have come forward on behalf of the Liberal interest, will not do so at present ; therefore, in the absence of that gentleman, the return of Mr. C. W. Packe and Viscount Curzon, Conservatives, may be looked forward to as a certainty. LEICESTERSHIRE (NORTH). An active canvass is now being carried on in this division between the friends of Lord John Manners, Mr. E. B. Hartopp, and Mr. C. H. Frewen, the latter in opposition to the noble scion of the house of Rutland. As the three candidates are Conserva tives, some degree of interest is felt in the matter, but the general belief is that the close of the contest will find the representation of the northern division of the county in the same hands as at present. LIVERPOOL. At a meeting of the Liberal party last night it was resolved not to bring forward any new candidate, but to use every effort to secure the return of Mr. J. C. Ewart. MARLBOROUGH. Lord Ernest Bruce, who has represented this borough more than 30 years, is again a candidate for re-election. STAFFORD. At an influential meeting of the electors held on Saturday evening it was decided to request Viscount Sandon, the eldest son of the Earl of Harrowby, to allow himself to be put in nomination at the next election. He professes Liberal-Conservative prin ciples. Mr. Walter Heller, of Broadlands, Surrey, who is a candidate in the Conservative interest, ad dressed the electors on Friday evening. Captain Salt, the present Conservative member, announces that owing to business engagements he will not seek re-election . The Liberal candidates will be Alder man Sidney, one of the present members, and Mr. M. A. Bass, son of the representative for Derby. WARWICK. The contest here is progressing actively. Mr. Peel, the Liberal candidate, was to have addressed the electors last night (Monday), at Emscote. Neither of the Conservative candidates has yet ap peared in public. On Saturday evening a numer ous meeting in connection with the Liberal Regis tration Association was held, at which a very en thusiastic feeling in favour of Mr. Peel was dis played. Mr. Peel expresses his approval of Mr. Baines's Bill. Mr. Repton, referring to the subject of reform, says in his address : "I think that the true principle of representative govern ment is that every interest should be duly represented ; but any system of representation based on the principle of representing numbers is inconsistent with true liberty. Recent events in America have confirmed that opinion. But, at the same time, any proposal for admitting the more intelligent members of the working classes to the privilege of the franchise shall be honestly considered by me." Letter of Garibaldi to Karl Blind. The Deutsche Eidgenosse, being a publication edited by Karl Blind, with the co-operation of a great number of eminent members of the Demo cratic party of Germany, Ledru-Rollin and Mazzini have addressed to it letters of sympathy, in which the fraternisation of French, Italian, and German democracy is expressed. Garibaldi, on his part, has now sent the following letter, which is con tained in the London weekly Hermann :--- "My dear Blind,—Human progress is at a standstill, and to your superior intellect the causes of this dead-lock aro assuredly well known. " The world is in want of a leading nation ; not for do mineering over it, but for conducting it on the path of duty, which is nothing else than the fraternity of nations and the overthrow of the barriers which political egotism has raised. Yes, the world is in want of a leading people, which, similar to the knights-errant of old, would devote itself to redress the wrongs, to take the side of the weak, and to sacrifice for a while its own material welfare, in order to attain to a far more valuable good, viz., the satisfaction of having mitigated the sufferings of follow-men. A people that came courageously to the front with such a noble ob ject would rally round itself all thoso who are oppressed all those who would fain rise from the abyss of misfortune into which the perversity of governments has thrown them. " This paramount post of honour, which the vicissitudes of modern times have left vacant, could be occupied by the German nation. The serious and philosophical character of your compatriots would be a guarantee and a pledge of stability for us all. Shake, then, with your robust Ger man arms the rotten fabric of your 30 tyrants ! Form, in the heart of Europe, which you inhabit, the imposing unity of your 50 millions; and we shall all throw ourselves, with enthusiastic eagerness, into your brotherly ranks. "With love and gratitude I therefore salute your Eidgenosse, as the organ of the future of a great people, and as the mouthpiece of the principle of human solidarity. Give my warmest salutations to your family, to our friends, and believe me ever yours, " G. CIARIBALDI." MISTAKEN IDENTITY.--The man who so cleverly obtained £6OO worth of money orders at the Nether Stowey Post-office, near Bridgewater, in Somersetshire, is still at large, although the police and postal authorities are using every means to capture him. This - week they thought they had their man safe, for the detective officers of the metropolis had been watching a gentleman in London who bears a striking resemblance to the person wanted, in the hopes of apprehending him when they had made sure of their case. On Tuesday morning the gentleman under sur veillance escaped the notice of the police for a time, but in the course of the same morning Mr. Montgomery, the New castle postmaster, received a telegram from head quarters that the gentleman suspected had booked by the express train to Edinburgh, which arrived at Newcastle at 3 55 p.m. The telegram gave a full description of the passenger, and the message was at once placed in the hands of Mr. Sabbage, the chief constable. Mr. Sabbage then, accompa nied by Detective Fawcett, and acting upon the telegram and Mr. Montgomery's instructions, proceeded to the cen tral station to await the arrival of the train, and when the passengers alighted the gentleman described was ob served, and was immediately apprehended. He was taken to the Manors Police-station, and his luggage was also re moved, and both were detained until Wednesday at noon, when, from inquiries which were instituted, it was found that he was not the person wanted. Ms name is Young, and it turns out that he is a fanner from.one of the African colonies, whence he arrived in London last week.' Mr. Young, naturally aggrieved by his treatment, has placed the matter in the hands of a solicitor, and it is therefore probable that legal proceedings will be taken for the unjust detention.—Newcastle Chronicle.

This Company has been formed by the amalgamation of the following London Firms, for the purpose of carrying on and extending their business as Merchants under the Joint-Stock Companies Act, with limited liability. Messrs. Robinson and Fleming. Messrs. Redfern, Alexander, and Co. Messrs. Lane, Hankey, and Co. Experience has shown that undertakings established upon the principle of limited liability can successfully carry out the most confidential operations of banking and finance, and the Directors feel assured that mercantile transactions will now be even more freely entrusted to a Company so formed than to private firms. It is believed that the periodical publication of a balance-sheet, with the security afforded by a large uncalled capital, will, when combined with the personal management of a board of ex perienced merchants, attract business of the best class, under permanently favourable conditions. The basis of the arrangement with the amalgamated firms is as follows : 1. All the liabilities and obligations of each house are to be liquidated altogether independently of tho Company, except where any such may hereafter be agreed to be taken over by the Board as new and desirable business. 2. The partners of each house bind themselves not to enter into any fresh mercantile operations in England of a similar character during ten years ; and the completeness of the transfer, with the efficient management of each par ticular class of business, is insured by the leading mem bers of the three firms joining the Board and remaining as Directors. The qualification of each Director is fixed by the Articles of Association at £lO,OOO, to be held in the Stock of the Company. 3. The total goodwill of the amalgamated firms will bo taken, one-third in Shares with £5O paid, and two-thirds in Debentures, payable with 5 per cent. interest, in equal annual instalments over ten years, thus identifying the interests of the vendors completely and continuously with that of the Company. The total amount thus paid to the three firms for good will in Shares and Debentures will be £375,000, which sum is calculated upon their actual profits for three years ; without estimating any increase from- new business, or savings which will be effected by the amalgamation, and assuming only the present profits of the united firms, a largo dividend may, therefore, be anticipated on the paid up capital, from the establishment of the company. The amalgamated firms and their immediate connexions are prepared to subscribe for a large portion of the pro posed capital ; but as it is believed that the influence and prosperity of the Company will be increased by establish ing it on a wide and a public basis, and that many inves tors will gladly seize the opportunity of thus becoming merchants without the unlimited risks of partnership, the directors have decided to open the subscription to the public. To meet the wishes of those who may desire to pay up at once the amount that is intonded to be called on the shares, it has been decided to allow such prepayments to the extent of £5O per share, and such shares will then rank for dividend in proportion to the amount paid up. A separate form of application for such shares is enclosed. There will be no promotion-money paid for the forma tion of the Company. Applications for shares, accompanied by a remittance for the deposit, may be made to the Bankers and Brokers. The Articles of the Association are open for inspection at the`Office of the Solicitors.

The East London Railway, recommended by the joint committee of both 'louses of Parliament in the session of 1864, and sanctioned by the act of this session, will ac commodate in its course the most densely-populated parts of the metropolis. The cost of the property required for tho lino will be less per mile than that of any other metropolitan railway, and is sufficiently provided for by the estimates. The length of the line, including junction branches, is between seven and eight miles, of which the land for the terminal station at Liverpool-street, and for nearly one mile of its course through the most expensive district, is purchased jointly with the Great Eastern Railway, the Wile running at a high level and the other at a low level over the same property, by which arrangement fully a quarter of a million will be saved. On the southern side of the river, from the Thames Tunnel to the junctions of the Southern Railways, the cost per mile will be very moderate, whilst the tunnel itself has been obtained without risk of construction at a little more than one-third of its original cost. The large population which this line will accommodate, and the high through rates which it will receive for the traffic derived from the great lines with which it will be connected, leave no doubt that its receipts per mile from plissengers alone will exceed those of the Metropolitan Railway. But assuming the East London receipts to be, per mile, not more than those on the Metropolitan in its present incomplete and undeveloped state, and calculating the receipts on six miles only of the East London Railway, so far substantially to confine the calculation to the main line, the income from passengers will be £230,880 per annum, to which must be added for merchandise and coal, at a low estimate, £100,000; making a total gross income of £330,880; which, after deduction of 41 per cent. for working expenses, will leave a net income of £195,220, or about 14 per cent, on the cost of the line. To investors, the rapidity with which this line can be opened for traffic, and its security from competition, are facts of great importance. The completion of the central station at Liverpool-street, and nearly a mile of the line, will be greatly expedited by the arrangement (ionfirmed by Parliament) with the Great Eastern Company, which is now in possession of part of the property, and is proceed ainpgplziattliiotnhetoworks; railway usestliet ; unnel is also ready for immediate ly be yielding revenu e i n an unusosutahlal The contract will p rovide for payment of interest y t t s h h e o lritn space eNvil l o c f e t r i t m a i o n . half yearly during construction at the rate of five per cent. per annum on calls, and six per cent. on shares fully paid up. In allotting the shares preference will be given to appli cations for fully paid-up shares. The holders of paid-up stock have the privilege of pay ing up the balance of £BO per certificate at once, under dis count of six per cent. per annum, which will raise the first year's interest to upwards of seven per cent. On registration of the scrip, of which duo notice will be given; the certificates for £lOO will be divided into five shares of £2O each. In the event of no allotment being made the deposits will be returned in full. Should a less number of shares be allotted than are applied for, the deposits will be made available towards the payment on allotment, and the balance (if any) returned to the applicant.

GUIDE TO THE QUACKS Or LONDON. A Series of Papers relative to Quacks, which appeared in the " Medical Circular," with the signature of "Detector," has been republished in the form of a short pamphlet. The reader of " Punch" should read this pamphlet also. He has often read, in the pages of "Punch," of certain Quacks, frau dulent and noisome, who obtain money by false pretences, and more money by menaces and extortion, from green young men. For their names, which "Punch" would not advertise, he has referred his readers to the lower corner of the advertising columns of low newspapers, amongst which too many of Mr." Punch's" contemporaries, especially in the country, may still be enumerated. But now he begs to pub lish the information that a nominal list of these miscreants, with copies of their puffs and other particulars concerning them, needful to be known, will be found in the pamphl• t above referred to, which is entitled "Revelations of Quacks an f Quackery," and is to be had at the "Medical Circular " Office, 20. King William-street, Strand, W.C. The vile practices, the monstrous impudence, the cruel rapacity, and the enormous pins of the obscene tribe of Quacks, the mischief they do, the ruin they work, even to the causation of suicide, are fully set forth in " Revelations of Quacks and Qackery." And mark especially th 4, as aforesaid, the names of the Quacks are puhlishe I. The pamphlet fu question thus constitutes a regular Quack Di rectory. by consulting; which every young man may know where he may go if he wishes to get plundered and destroyed Buy, therefore, reader, by all means buy " Revelations of Quacks and Quackery." Its contents will astonish and amuse you, whi.e they invoke your indignation and disgust. Of course you do not want it on account of its warnings for your own sake, but you doubtless do for that of the many simple tons with whom you must be acqttainted, if your acquaint ance is large. " Who are the Quacks that 'Punch' means ?"

TEMPORARY OFFICES. 6, Great Queen-street, Westminster. The Act of Parliament authorising the construction of a bridge over the River Thames from Chelsea to Battersea, with approaches thereto, received the Royal assent on the 25th July, 1864. The bridge will connect Chelsea and Battersea, starting from Cheyne-walk at its junction with Oakley-street, and terminate in the Prince Albert-road, Battersea, adjoining Battersea Park. It will be constructed on the most modern and improved form of the suspension principle, with cylinder foundations, and of a width of not less than 40 feet, giving a clear head way in the centre of 21 feet above Trinity high-water mark, the abutments forming a portion of the proposed embankments on the Surrey and Middlesex shores. A responsible Contractor has agreed to complete the bridge, ready for traffic, in eighteen months, for £82,000, taking part payment in paid-up shares of the Company. If required, the Contractor has agreed to collect the tolls of the new bridge and Battersea-bridge (which will become the property of the Albert-bridge Company), and keep the two bridges in repair for the space of twelve months after the opening of the Albert-bridge, and has authorised the Directors to retain the sum of £4,000 to guarantee the shareholders for the same period a minimum dividend of 5 per cent. per annum, after paying all costs, charges, &c. During the progress of the Bill in the House of Lords very satisfactory arrangements were entered into for the purchase of Battersea-bridge by the Albert-bridge Com pany : viz., the Albert-bridge Company agreed to purchase Battersea-bridge (the purchase to be completed on the opening of Albert-bridge) for a yearly rent-charge of £3,000 per annum. The tolls on Battersea-bridge are yearly increasing. For the year 1862 they amounted to no less than £6,153. The tolls on the new Chelsea-bridge (free on Sundays) for the year ending March, 1863, were upwards of £4,000, and have been increasing, taking the corresponding month of last year, at a rate exceeding £lOO a-month. The situation of the bridge is peculiarly favourable for traffic ; it provides for Chelsea, Brompton, Kensington, and the West-end of London a shorter and better route to Battersea Park, Wandsworth, Clapham, Tooting, Mitcham, and other places south of the Thames. The Act of Parliament also authorises the Company to construct a new street from the King's-road, Chelsea (oppo site Oakley-street), to the Brompton and Fulham-road (opposite Sumner-place), and a short road from the Lower Wandsworth-road to the Queen's-road, Battersea, thus giving a direct thoroughfare from the Cromwell-road, Ken sington, to Clapham-common. The great advantage the Albert-bridge possesses over the other metropolitan bridges is— First,—The small sum for which the bridge will be com pleted : the approaches on both sides of the river being already made, the Company will not be called upon to pay compensation. Secondly,—The very satisfactory arrangements entered into with the proprietors of Battersea-bridge will give the Albert-bridge Company a clear profit of £3,000 per annum, after deducting a sum per annum sufficient for maintenance of bridge and expense of collecting of tolls. Presuming the tolls on Albert-bridge equal to the tolls on Battersea-bridge, the shareholders will have a clear income of 9 per cent. on their capital. Application for shares may be made in the annexed form, and must be accompanied by a deposit of £1 per share. If no allotment be made, the deposit will be returned to the applicant without deduction. PrGspectuses may be ob tained from Messrs. J. and A. Scrimgeour, the Brokers of the Company ; at the Union Bank of London ; from the Secretary, at the Offices of the Company ; from the Engi neers ; and from the Solicitors. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

MRHOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52, ; leet-street, has introduced an entirely new descrip ti n of A RTIFICIAL TEE LIT, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as nut to be distinguished fro a the originals by the closest observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will be foun i superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the e‘itraction of roots, or any pain ful operation, and wilt support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica tion. Decayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in mastication. 52, Fleet-street At home from 10 till 5. WESTMINSTER. A meeting of Mr. John Stuart Mill's committee was held last evening at St. James's-hall, Dr. Brewer in the chair, at which the following resolution was arrived at : "That while this committee desire to preserve their per fect independence, and to carry out fully the great prin ciples they have professed, they believe the time has now come when they should attempt to arrive at a mutual un derstanding with Captain Grosvenor's committee, in order that the Liberal intewst in Westminster may not be divided, and that, should such an understanding be attained, this committee will pledge themselves to use every honourable effort to secure the return of Captain Grosvenor in conjunc tion with Mr. John Stuart Mill." FINSBURY. A general meeting of the supporters of Mr. g'Cul lagh Torrens, who is one of the candidates for the representation of this borough, was held last evening at Myddelton-hall, Islington, Colonel Pitt Kennedy occupying the chair. A resolution was proposed by Mr. DONNELLY— " That the great and varied interests of a metro politan constituency peculiarly require that its repre sentatives in Parliament should be men of tried ability and known experience in public life." Mr. G. LINI‘LEUS BANKS seconded this in a very able speech, and urged as it was necessary to send to Parliament men distinguished for administrative capacity, this borough should make a strenuous effort to bestow its representation upon men who have other qualifications than a mere monetary po sition, and, at all events, to rescue one of its seats from the grasp of the city of London. The Rev. MARK WILKES supported the motion, which was carried unanimously. Mr. TORRENS was then called upon to address the meeting, and on coming forward was most warmly received. In the opening remarks to a very long though interesting address he said that during his canvass of nearly a year he had received so many promises of support in all parts of the borough that there was not the slightest doubt in his mind as to the issue of the coming contest. He went on to say that from the time he could think he had been opposed to monopoly in all its bearings, and he proceeded to state the part he had taken when in Parliament in supporting measures of reform, and, in conjunction with the late Richard Cobden, the support he had given to the repeal of the corn laws. He described the course he adopted in Parliament to place the relief of the poor in Ireland on a foot ing with that of England, and dealt generally with his views on other social questions. With respect to the extension of the franchise, he said he was for the best bargain that could be obtained for the people, and not only would he vote for household suffrage, but for anything better that might be pro posed. He expressed himself as strongly in favour of the ballot, which he maintained was not opposed to the spirit of either English law or character, and he held it would be necessary until all gentlemen of position actedlike the Duke of Wellington bad done, as shown in a letter in the papers of that day, and which told his tenants 'that he did not interfere in the contested election. On the question of non-in tervention the hon. candidate was opposed to the view that we should buckle on our armour under no circumstances, for he considered our supporting a weak free country against a strong despotism as the wisest policy for this coulitry to pursue. In con clusion, he said he was desirous of seeing retrench ment in the public expenditure, and having stated that he looked for the day when the income tax would be entirely removed he resumed his seat amid very loud applause, by expressing the hope that he should receive the general support of the electors. Many questions were put to Mr. Torrens by per , sons in the meeting, all of which he answered to the evident satisfaction of the very large assembly, and a resolution pledging the meeting to use all Con stitutional means to return the candidate having been carried with acclamation, a complimentary vote was given to the chairman, and the proceed ings terminated. BERWICKSHIRE. Mr. Davidßobertson, Lord-Lieutenant and mem ber for Berwickshire, has issued an address, solicit ing a renewal of the honour of representing the county. He considers that Lord Palmerston's Go vernment has been well entitled to the confidence of the country ; and in reference to the charge that the Government and Parliament h ave d one no thi ng during the last six years, he asks, is it nothing to have maintained the peace of this country during the war in America, " which has produced a state of things unparalleled in the history of nations and of mankind ;" and to have abstained on the grounds of sound international policy from being parties to a Continental war " which would have deluged Europe in blood, checked the progress and pros perity of every country in it, and expended count less treasure without, probably, attaining the de sired end? Is it nothing to have made the great French treaty, and to have expanded the trade of England with our nearest and best allies, and to have thus filled up so opportunely the gap in our commerce created by the desolating war in the United States ? Is it nothing to have removed up wards of 10 millions of annual taxation, to have paid off between 15 and 20 millions of the national debt, and to have reduced our expenditure by some three millions per annum, and yet to have preserved our civil and military establishments in a state of the most perfect efficiency ?" IPSWICH. Mr. H. W. West and Mr. 11. E. Adair, the Libe ral candidates for this borough, have issued their addresses. Mr. West avows himself a firm adherent to that party which has identified itself with all the great measures of reform carried in England during the memories of living men. He is prepared to sup port a £lO occupation franchise in counties and one of £6 in boroughs. He would vote for the abolition of church rates. Although he regrets that Lord Pal merston's Government should not have persisted in their scheme of reform, they would have such sup port as he could give them in Parliament. Mr. Adair says the guiding principle of his political conduct has been, as regards the franchise, inclusion, and Is 31 58 ~,tg ": 'S 8 366 slol' r wilito 38 4 54 3 0 30 35 0 L 8 ,0 -0 3 10 IS 0 - 0 ,0 54 _0 3s -0 360 e el 1.9 11e1.
