CITY Or LONDON LIBERAL ELECTORS' COMMITTEE. • a..,4TLEMEN, vi-rE take the liberty of laying before y ou the ADDRESS of Baron LIONEL ROTHSCHILD, and of announcing the determination of the Committee of Liberal Electors again to support i bis claims to the suffrages of the Constituency of London. • The decision of the House of Lords, which has converted the Controversy into a struggle for the ascendancy of vital principles, bets left us no alternative but to vindicate acts from which we can not shrink without betraying our public duty, and to assert rights which cannot be compromised without danger to th 2 prerogatives of the genera body of the people. It is not your choice that you are now called upon to justify, but your right to choose which you are required to defend. It is less the re-electien of Baron Rothschild we seek, than, by his return, to declare to the country our firm determination to maintain the in tegrity of our religious liberties. His personal claims to your i respect and confidence have been already amply acknowledged by your deliberate decision ; but as it was the cause with which his name I s identified which recommended him to your suffrages, you cannot, with honour, retire from its assertion until you have witnee , efi its final triumph, however protracted may be the struggle, or reiterated ,the appeals to legislative justice, and to the zeal and firm intrepidity of the electors. The chief city of the empire is called upon to set an example to the general body of the constituency of persevering ad vocacy of their common rights, and of stedthst adherence to the yin ;dication of a privilege with which the great principles of the Constl , ution are indissolubly identified. 'While we are sincerely attaehed to those views of Legislation and Government which have hitherto formed the bond of union among the Liberal electors , we refuse to renew the struggle upon not party : grou nds. We only know that our representative has buffered to represent us—and that, in his rejection has been involved the persecution of a loyal and industrious denomination of our fellow citizens, for that intrepid and conscientious adherence to their sin cere religious convietions, which forms the test euarantee forentrust their fidelity In the discharge of say duty with whin we may them. In remembering that Baron Rethschild is a Jew by ex is tra ac tion, andln his faith, - we are not permitted to ferget that he n Englishman by birth, in feeling, in character, 'and he interest—and that we cannot compromise his claims without also betraying our .own rights. On this issue alone we enter upon a renewal of the contest. Free dom of electoral choice, liberty of religious opinion, are our only Watchwords. Increasing majorities in the Commons —decreasing opposition in the Lords, render the ultimate fate of the question of ;Jewish Disabilities no longer doubtful, if we remain true to the acts to which, as honourable men, we are committed, and to principles, the eventual triumph of which but awaits the persevering exertion of your intelligent energy and unflinching resolution. The Committee will meet here daily until the close of the election. It is your own acts we seek to justify, and your own declared 'opinions to which we desire to give effect ; and we therefore rely With confidence, not o n ly on y our support, but do the personal co operation of every elector to vindicate the independence of the city pf London. 'rZnishe) Gentlemen, your obedient and faithful servants , (By order of the Committee) JOHN ABEL SMITH, Chairman, , SIDNEY SMITH, Secretary. Committee Room, Guildhall Coffeehose, King-street, Cheapside, London, June 28 u , 1849. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF LONDON. GENTLEMEN, T have accepted the Stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds. The decision of the House of Lords has left me no Alternative. The contest is now between the House of Lords and yourselves. They attempt to retain the last remnant of religious intolerance you deste to remove it. You alone can decide whether declared will continue this honourable struggle , o r g ive up your own rishes and the cause of freedom together. I had hoped that the gradual and steady progress of opinion In favour of civil and religious liberty would, on this occasion, have in fluenced their Lordships ; that the example of there stattheires men of all parties would ha v e been a guide f them II deliberations; and that as the leaders of these parties had within the last few years concurred in endeavouring to remove from us every badge of degradation, the House of Peers would have been induced to listen to the suggestions of a more liberal policy, and to defer, In this last instance, to the wishes of the great constituency of London, as well as to the opinion of the assembled representatives of Eng land, who have, by constantly increasing majorities, significantly declared their deliberate conviction upon this great question. My hope has been disappointed, and I am now compelled most reluct antly to return you the honourable trust you confided to my care Cdnsidering your cause and mine as one, and judging of your pre ieht feelings by your past kindness and generosity, I do not hesitate again to solicit your suffrages in the coming election.: because in my pelson a principle is to be vindicated, and because I believe that you are prepared to maintain the great constitutional struggle that is be fore you with the same vigour and earnestness that you have here • tOfore evinced. Truth will win its way under your auspices. Your strong convictions will exercise • their proper influence upon the de. terminations of . the Legislatpre, and justice will be done according to tie forms, and in the trne.spirit, of the Eng slerva n ish Constitution. I am, Gentlemen, your faithful t, Court, June 27, 1849 . LIONEL ROTHSCHILD. GUILDHALL, JUNE 29, 1849.

BEWLEY, FISHER, AND Co.'s CONCENTRATED ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER. —This Preparation conta'ns, in a highly concentrated state, and without the addition of any more heating stimulant, all the car m i na tive and restorative properties of this useful and grateful aro matic, separated from the ligneous fibre which constitutes the hulk of the root. As few stomachs are able to bear a sufficient quantity of the powder to produce the desired effect, BEWLEY, F ISHE It, and CO. conceive this form of exhibition the most convenient, when taken in water, tea, beer, wine, &e. ; or for combination with other medicine, ten drops being equal to eight grains of the powder. It is recommended to persons of Phlegmatic, Gouty, Dyspeptic, and Ner vous habits. Its beneficial effects are quickly fl diffused y, thro pain, ugh and the whole system, re lieving cramps, spssms, atulenc sense of oppressi , a after meals, and restoring the tone of the stomach. Its utility is also manifested as an adjunct to other medi cine, and in correcting the chill which soda and or mineral waters give the stomach, as well as in adding other to their aerated tonic property. In bottles at 25. 6d. and 45., prepared by BEWLEY, FISHER, and Co., 64, Dame-street, Dublin. Also their Anodyne Lettuce Lozenges, for coughs, colds, asthma, and affections of the chest. Doctor Duncan, of Edinburgh, and other leading members of the profession, have strongly recommended Lactucarium (the Inspia sated juice of the garden Lettuce) as possessing peculiarly soothing and quieting properties in the above complaints, and especially in the troublesome cough attendant on consumption. To increase its efficacy, Bewley, Fisher, and Co. have combined it with hippo and demulcents, and have adopted the form of a lozenge as being the most agreeable mode for its administration.

One half the world are desolately single, and the other iupposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em sitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un conprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness end social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and jnztice demand tfiat health should form malt= in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or seglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

A special meeting of this company was held on Thursday at the office, Guildhall-buildings, to consider the draft of a Bill for authorising the amalgamation of the Nor folk with the Eastern Counties Company; Mr. Adam Duff in the chair. The CHAIRMAN stated that the meeting was called in compliance with Lord Wharncliffe's standing, order, which required that their sanction should be given to the Bill prior to being read the second time in the House of Lords. It was unnecessary for him to go over matters which had been alredy discussed, and therefore he would at once move that this meetinedn approve of the Bill, subject to such alterations as may be introduced by Parliament. Mr. S. M. PETO, M.P., seconded the resolution, and in doing so went into several details connected with the history and objects of the proposed amalgamation. By the agreement with the Eastern Counties Company the capital of the Norfolk was limited to 2,300,000/. On the 2d of May, 1848, the common eal.pf the Eastern Counties Company was affixed to . the deeds, arid, on the Bth of May, the Eastern Counties entered into possession of the Norfolk line, and all the works and stock belonging to the Norfolk Company. The agreement had been twice ratified by the Eastern Couutiet Company, and it was the opinion of counsel that the latter were legally bound to carry out the agreement with the Norfolk Company. He then proceded to show that the Norfolk Company had faithfully performed their part of the agreement by keeping within the specified capital of 2,300,0001. Everything had been most carefully estimated with regard to the Norfolk Company; 20,0001. would be realised by the sale of lands, and 30,000/. by the sale of stores, making 50,000/. The total cost of the line and works, including the Lowestoft Harbour, was :ascer tained to be 2,233,7481., being nearly 70,0001 under the limited amount, and leaving besides a margin of 50,0001. He then adverted to the recommendation of the Eastern Counties Committee of Inquiry to the shareholders of that company, to complete the amalgamation with the Norfolk, and alluded to a letter the board had received a few days ago from the directors of the Eastern Counties Company respecting the traffic on the Norfolk line, stating that the earnings for the year only amounted to 119,865/., or an average 'of 2,1771. per week, which, after deducting working expenses and interest on the entire capital, including the unproductive portion of it expended on the Dereham and.Fakenham line not yet open, left a balance of 3,000/. This account differed considerably from another account of the Nor folk traffic given by the Eastern Counties' directors, in which it was stated that the net earnings were ss. Bd. per share taken one way, and 6s. 2d. per share taken another way. He had taken considerable pains to as certain the working expenses of their line, and for that purpose consulted some of the most eminent loco motive engineers and responsble contractors, who were ready to undertake the working of the Norfolk line, including in their estimate ample provision for the depreciation of stock and permanent way, at such a rate as would give to the Norfolk proprietors on the amount stated by the Eastern Counties Company as the re ceipts for the year a dividend of Bs. 6d. per share, or two and a half per cent.-4s. 3d. for each half-year. He objected to the mode adopted by the Eastern Coun ties Company in fixing the working expenses of the Norfolk line, upon which there were fewer trains than on the Eastern Counties line, and they were charged with the average mileage of the whole. He believed it was the interest of the Eastern Counties Company to carry out the amalgamation, and the best thing for the Norfolk Company that they should repudiate the bargain.— (Hear, hear.) If any party had a right to complain, he thought it was the proprietors of the Norfolk Company. There had been no breach of faith on their part; they had made a bargain, and they were willing to carry it out fairly and honestly. He then endeavoured to show that a certain amount of traffic was brought cn the Eastern Counties from the Norfolk line, which h would not come on the former if the Norfolk line was worked indePcndently by the Norfolk Company or by any other, company. He was of opinion ths* if ths-salgass...66-shls-Esioessa; Counties Company were conducted on comrlterctal principles, with their income of BCO,OOO/. a year, there would he a probability of their having fair dividends ; and it would be the in terest of the proprietors to pay three or four gentlemen of business habits adequately tor devoting their time and attention to the affairs of the company. Ample accounts should also be furnished to the proprietors, so that they might clearly see the position of their affairs. With regard to closing the capital account, he did not think they could do that, because increased accommodation would be required from time to time; but he thought the directors should not undertake the construction of any additional works unless sanctioned in every case by the shareholders. Major COURT said, that he had opposed the amalga mation because he did not understand it, and the result proved that the Norfolk Company had made an im prudent bargain. He doubted whether the shareholders were bound, in point of honour, to carry out the agree ment, because they were not fully . informed at the time it was entered into of every circumstance con nected with the subject. The agreement rested on a fallacy, and he did not think it should be urged in point of honour, or in point of expediency. He complained of the want of clearness in the accounts of the Norfolk Company, and concluded by moving as an amendment, " That a committee be appointed to investi gate the accounts of the company, and that the meet ing be adjourned to the 15th of July. Mr. LAWRENCE trusted that they would not lose sight of the question before them. Both companies were bound in honour and law to carry out the agree ment. Mr. OLD thought they had better wait and see what the Eastern Counties Company intended to do. Mr. PETO said, that the 13t11 was prosecuted under the sanction of the Eastern Counties Company, and he thought the proprietors ought to approve of the Bill. The plant of the company had recently been valued at 187,0001. He was only a recen t m ember of the board, and he and his family held 1 00,0 004 of stock in the com pany. He could state that the directors had not acted in this matter alone; they h a d cons ulted the principal proprietors in the comp a ny, an d received their sanction to the measure. Mr. BAXENDALE thought that a great deal of injury had been inflicted on railway property by members of boards acting on the suppo s ition that there was a great distinction between their public and private acts, and he thought that if gentlemen had in every case looked to their public acts as private indivi duals, they would not have committed so many serious mistakes. He hoped they would be enabled to amal gamate the whole of the interests of the district. He entirely concurred with Mr. Peto as to working the line by contract. It was the only system by which they could work with economy. He had had forty years' experience in conducting a very large establishment, and he was convinced that the only mode of working a railway with economy was to contract for the working.. Next to that was a clear and satisfactory statement of the traffic, showing the gain or loss on every branch of it periodi cally. He was not surprised at the dividends falling off from 10 to 7 per cent. and from 6 to 4 per cent.; for be was convinced that no individual dare carry on hs busi ness in the same way railway companies did. They com• plained of the traffic falling off, but he contended that the traffic was very good. He condemned the reckless way in which the traffic was conducted on the Eastern Counties line. There was every hope for the line if a small body of directors could be induced to devote the whole of thtir time and attention to the management of the un dertaking. After some further observations a resolution was passed approving of the Bill. The meeting then sepa rated. CHELMSFORD POLICE.—On Wednesday, the Rev. Jonathan Henry Price, a dissenting minister of the In dependent denomination, at Woodham Ferris, and Pris cilla Ruffle, a good-looking woman, about 30 years of age, daughter of a widow occupying a farm at High soothing, were brought up for examination at the Chelmsford bench, before Captain Skinner, R.A., on the charge of attempting to murder a child found in a basket at Widford, respecting which much mystery and interest had prevailed. The child was left in a basket in the ditch of a country lane, with the lid close down.

CORONER'S INQUEST.—Yesterday afternoon an in quest was held at the Red Lion publie-house, Lower Fore-street, Lambeth, before Mr. W. Carter, the co roner, on the body of William Butler, aged 63, who had died of cholera, but whose family imputed some blame to Cope, one of the relieving officers, in not attending properly to his wants. The verdict, after a deliberation of about half an hour, returned a verdict that the de ceased had died from cholera, and therefore from natural causes. They added, that they could not impute any blame to the parish officers, for, from the evidence before them, it appeared that the deceased had been afforded relief every time he applied for it. Dispatches were sent off, yesterday evening, from the Colonial-office, for the Governors of t h e North American colonies, A - SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. WINCHESTER RACES.-FRIDAY.

At Greenhithe the Cygnet led by a quarter of a mile, the Cynthia second, the Foam thtrd, the Musquito fourth, then the Daring and Secret, the Bianca and Gipsy literally tailed off. In St. Clement's the Musquito ran into third place to leeward of the Foam, which shortly after carried away her jib haulyards, and off Gravesend carried away her gaff topsail, and set a small headed one she had had before, as well as availing her self of the balloon jib haulyards to repair the first acci dent. As the wind continued to freshen towards flood the Musquito gradually gain( d upon her opponents, and at the Bligh beacon the Cygnet led by about three lengths, Cynthia second, and the Musquito about a fur long only astern of her. Some beautiful sailing here followed between the two first, the Cynthia went up to the Cygnet and tried to pass her to leeward, but was un able to do so, and after keeping her company for a short distance dropped a trifle astern, which was two or three times repeated, until just below the Chapman's Head buoy, when the Cynthia fairly slipped into the second place, followed in a few minutes afterwards by the Mus quito, who began to give strong symptoms of overhaul ing the leading boat. Lord Alfred Paget (the commo dore), on the arrival 9f the Jupiter off Southend Pier, brought her to, having previously fired a gun from either bow to apprise the yachtmen that the distance had been shortened, and that they were to round the steamer, which they did in the following order : Hours. Mina. Sees. Musquito ...... 2 Cynthia Cygnet Daring Secret... Foam 2 . 47 _. _ _ The Musquito put down her helm and came over to round, but seemed to be doubtful by the sweep she made whether the steamer was at anchor, or whether they had been guilty of inattention to their interests. How ever, in this respect it is difficult to say, but she went so wide of the mark that the Cynthia slipped in between the Mosquito and the steamer, which was dead at anchor, and they rounded abreast in the same instant, but imme diately afterwards the topmast of the Musquito was car ried away by the bowsprit of the Cynthia striking, as it was alleged by several who had witnessed it, the Mus quito's topmast stay; that they had almost unavoidably fouled is certain, tnd the Cynthia had sustained some trifling injury also. Which party ought to have given way caused not a little contention amongst those assem bled, and which ought to have ported her helm - caused much diversity of opinion; some held that the Cynthia had clearly a right to go where she did, and that the other should have given way, as from the nature of the Cynthia's position the collision was unavoidable, unless the Musquito ported her helm to give her room; while others maintained that the Musquito had jibbed first, and that the Cynthia ought to have gone outside of her. The Musquito rigged a jury mast and hoisted the protest signal immediately after the collision. The Cynthia maintained her lead, and they arrived in the following order and time, the Cygnet being, with her allowance of seven minutes and a half, the winner:— Hours. Mins. Secs.

The owner of the Foam also re ceived her prize for the last match, which bad been left in abeyance, the sailing committee havibg decided in her favour. The band of the 2d Life Guards were in attendance, and played the most popular airs ' and the company were landed at an early hour, much gratified with the day's sport. CRICKET. COUNTY OF SURREY V. COUNTY OF SUSSEX. This match, which was commenced on Thursday at the Oval. was brought to a conclusion last evening, and so near did it occupy the full time that when the last wicket was taken by Surrey the clock stood at four minutes-to eight. Each day the ground was very fully attended. The match throughout reflected the greatest credit upon all who were engaged in the play. We have seldom wit nessed so much good play with 'so little of that which was bad, indeed we cannot at this moment call to our recollection any mistake, or an instance of what can be denominated bad play, rom the opening to the close of the contest. The bowling on both sides was of the highest character, whilst the batting was nearly its equal. It will, however , noticed that there were but few long scores. Chester stands at the head of the list for runs, having made 12 and 44, and the next is Bushby, who scored 7 and 42. Both batted beautifully, and it afforded all around the ring great satisfaction on finding that the latter appeared not only to have regained his health, but also hie play. Want of space prevents our entering into any further detail, except to remeak that the fielding on both sides was snail as has rarely been seen. The match stood as follows at its close, and was in favour of Surrey, who won by 15 rune:— SURREY.

Mr. White side, in his new work, " Vicissitudes of the Eternal City," published this morning, denounces it with all the e loquence which might be expected from so gifted a writer. This new work appears most timeously, fur the reader will be able, by its aid, as it were to be present, and watch every movement of the French. RAILWAY VERSUS STEAM-BOATS.—It iS stated in Lincoln that between Gainsborough and Boston the Great Northern Company intend to run half-penny-a-mile trains, for the purpose of destroying the competition ex perienced from Daykin and the Witham Steam packet Company. Having pared down their expenditure, the competitors have for some time carried passengers at fares which are a temptation to all whose money is of more value to them than their time. The company have found rather more formidable antagonists in the proprie tors of the old modes of conveyance than they could have anticipated, for both proprietors are well patronised, whilst the trains are very leanly stocked with passengers. —Stamford Mercury.

ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB INTERESTING MATCH. The great contest for the Grand Challenge Cup, pre sensed by the Royal Thames Yacht Club, and open to all Royal Yacht clubs in the kingdom, took place yes terday, and was one of the most exciting races on re cord, affording a succession of incidents of the most in teresting description. The Jupiter steamer had been, as usual, chartered by the club for the conveyance of the members and their friends, and left her moorings at London-bridge at ten o'clock, with a highly-respectable party on board, which was increased in numbers on their calling in at Blackwell. The Waterman 10, Dryad, and another steamer, with a private party on board, and a number of gentlemen's yachts, including the Pearl, with her gallant owner the Marquis of Angle sea on board, accompanied the race. On the arrival of the Jupiter at Erith the following were found ready for the starting sign : Station. Name of Yacht. Tons. Port. 1. 2. Foam 20 London. 3. Bianca 32 Portsmouth. 4. Cynthia 5O London. 5. ...... ..Musquito 5O London. 6. Daring 3l Plymouth. 7. Secret 25 Dartmouth. 8. Gipsy 12 Plymouth. The distance to be sailed was from Erith to the Nore Light and back, weather permitting, and half a minute per ton allowed at arriving by the larger to the smaller craft. The mishaps of the day, however, had already com menced, and with one of the greatest and most deserving favourites—the Mosquito. This beautiful yacht, an chored at Blackwell at nine A.M., was about to get under weigh to run down to Erith, when a Trinity House lighter, coming up the river, ran foul of the Mosquito, and snapped her bowsprit in the centre. This accident, however, served only to bring out the natural charac. teristics of our countrymen, especially those engaged i n nautical business, for Sir. Green, having, with his accus tomed liberality, not only furnished the owners with a new spar, but also the assistance of his mast-makers, in fifty minutes the spar was manufactured into a new bow sprit, and being taken into tow by the Vesper, the Gravesend steamer, she arrived at Erith at the same time as the Commodore's steamer reached that place. The start was well effected at 11 b. 43 min. 45 secs, when the Cygnet made sail beautifully, closely followed by the Cynthia, Foam, Bianca, and Musquito; but here again something was evidently wrong with the Mosqu ito, her movements, she was all behind, and see med hampered in movements, anti it was only sub se q uentl y we observed the cause. It appears the Commodore, on his arrival at Erith, immediately fired the preparatory gun, oh which came four of th e M o squito's crew, who were at Era , on board, when the owner of the Cynthia threatened a protest unless they went out of the vessel. As the rules for sailing had only been put on board on her arrival at Erith, and there was no time before the signal gun for starting was fired to appeal to the Commodore, the four men were s ent on shore; consequently, the Mus quito hid to sail with eight hands in lieu of twelve; she cou ld not, therefore , with this small number, g et her sails properly set without great loss of time. She nevertheless determined to proceed. There was a fine topsail breeze from the S.E., and the little fleet went away in the most excellent trim, each captain exhibiting considerable nautical skill. After making a board in Erith Reach, they sailed the reach down with a few yards' span only between each, forming the moot beautiful picture that could well be ielsgined. COURT CIRCULAR. The Queen held a Privy Council and Court, at three o'clock yesterday afternoon, at Buckingham Palace. The Privy Council was attended by his Royal High ness Prince Albert, the Lord President, the Lord Privy Seal, the First Lord of the Treasury, the Secretaries of State for the Home, Foreign, and Colonial Departments, the First Lord of the Admiralty, th e Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, the Lord S teward, the Lor d Cham berlain, and the Master of the H orse .
