CITY Or LONDON LIBERAL ELECTORS' COMMITTEE OHNTLICION, WE take the liberty of laying before you the ADDRESS of Baron LIONEL ROTHSCHILD, and of announcing the determination of the Committee of Liberal Electors again to support his claims to the suffrages of the constituency of London. Time decision of the House of Lords, which has converted the controversy into a struggle for the ascendancy of vital principles, has 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 the prerogatives of the general body of the people. It is not your choice that you are now called upon to justify, hut your right to choose which you are required to defend. It is less the re-election 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 respect and confidence have been alre ad y amply acknowledged by your deliberate decision; but as it was the cause with which he is entitled which recommended him to your suffrages, you cannot, with honour, retire from its assertion until you have witnessed its final triumph, however protracted may be the struggle, ar reiterated the appea:s to legislative justice, and to the zeal and firm intrepidity of the electors. The chief city 01 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 stedfast adherence to the vin dication of a nrivileze with which the great principles of the Consti ution are indissolubly identified. AY tide we are sincarely attached to those views of Legislation and Government which have! hitherto formed the bond of union among tile Liberal electors, We refuse to renew the•struggle upon party grounds. We only know that our representative has not been suffered 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 convictions, which forms the test guarantee for their fidelity in the discharge of any duty with which we may entrust them. In remembering that Raron Rethsehild is a Jew by extrac tion, and in his faith, we are not permitted to ferret that he is an Englishman by birth, in feeling, in character, and in Interest—and that we cannot compromise his claims without - also betraying our own rights. , Of this issue alone we enter upon a 'renewal of the contest. Free dom of electoral ellbice, liberty of religious opinion, are our only watchwords. Increming. majorities in th e 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 print iples, the eventual triumph of which but awaits the persevering exertion of your intelligent energy and unflinching resolution. The Committee will meet here dai , y 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 ontS , on-your support, but on the personal co operation of every elector to 'vindicate the independence of the city of London. We remain, Gentlemen, your obedient ant faithful servants, ' (By order of the Committee) JOHN ABEL SMITH, Chairman, SIDNEY SMITH,. Secretary. Committee Roo, Guildhall Coffeehose, Ring-street, Cheapmside; London, June 23 u , 1849. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF LONDON, GEWTLEMTN, have accepted the Ste wardshi p of the Chiltern IHundreds. The decision of the House of Lords, last night, has left me no alternative. The contest is now between the House of Lords and yourselves. They attempt to retain the last remnant of religions intolerance ; you desire to remove it. You alone can decide whether you will continue this honourable struggle, or give up your own declared wishes and the cause of freedom altogether. „ t bad hoped that the gradual and steady progress of.opinlon in favour of religious and civil liberty would, on this occasion, have In fluenced their Lordships ; that the example of the eminent states men of all political parties would have been a guide for them in their deliberations; and that as the leaders of these parties bad within the last few years concurred in endeavouring to remove from us every badge of degradation, the House of Peers would have been de u s e dinde n to listen to the suggest iois of a more I.beral policy,' and to e this last instance; to the wishes of the great constituency of London, as well as to the opinion of the assembled reprentati es v of En ntly g land, who. have, by,sonstantly- increasing majoes se , signca declared their deliberate conviction upon this great question. hly hope has been disaptiointed; 'and I 'aln new compelled most.reluct antly to return you the honourable trust you confided to my care. Considering your cause and mine as one, and judging of your pre sent feelings by your past kindness and generosity, I do not hesitate again to solicit your suffrages in the coming tleetion ; because in my ou person a pr i n ciple is to be vindicated, and because I believe that y are prepared to maintain the great constitutional struggle that is be fore ran, with the same vigour and earnestness that you have here tofore evinced. Truth will win its way under your auspices. Your strong" convictions Will exeicise their' proper influence upon the de , terminations of the Legislature, and justice will be done according to the forms, and in the true spirit, of the English Constitution.

Reader, remember, this letter was put int the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weckley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor- Vanity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstome, of the Herbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about tour months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than lever was before the baldness appeared. "Mrs. Weekiey inserts this testimony to:the virtues of Mr. G.'s RegetlatOT, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an Ils. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume itt far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above fact..-3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair be comin g thin, weak, or turning grey, ate w drops on the crown of the head occasionally, very week, will and e vent the hair from com in g away with the comb e , make it strong, prevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the Hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most dotioate ladies may use this delightful product of the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion t 3 the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops on the crown of thus head; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces hair ou children's heads in a few appplications. If used on cos heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See oaraphiet of testimonials.

Diffidence, or a - ense el right determine the former, and miscalculate.' hopes em :tter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un muprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, Ind broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness ..nd social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set dement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

THE BEST APERIENT and ANTIBILIOUS MEDICINE for general use is FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH, which effectually relieves the stomach and bowels by gentle relaxation, without griping or pr,,stration of strength. They remove head-ache, sickness, dizziness. pains in the chest, &c., are highly grateful to the stomach, promote digestion, create appetite, re lieve langour and depression of spirits ; while to those of full habit and free livers, who are continually suffering from drowsiness, heavi ness, and singing in the head and ears, they offer advantages that will not fent° be appreciated. This medicine° has for many years received the approval of the most respectable classes of societyconfirmation of its effi cacy, the following letter has been kindly forwarded to Mr. Front, with permission to publish it, and if requisite, to refer any respect able person to its author :-- " To Mr. Front, 229, Strand, London. •' Heavitree, Exeter, April 24, 1844.

She has recommended them extensively, and in one instance in which she induced a person to adopt them, and supplied the first box herself, they have proved of extraordinary efficacy.

TO THE BRITANNIA TUBE BRIDGE Thou mighty tube that span'st the sea, At Menat's far-famed straits ; My wonder-stricken muse on thee With duteous honour waits. Row mighty looks thy iron frame, • While ocean yawns below; Thou wilt immortalize the name 01 him who formed thee so. To Rhodes' huge colossal form, Successor thou shalt be; A monster mid'st the ocean's storm — The wonder of the sea. Well might thy builder's skill be praised, While 'mid our hopes and fears, Thy vast majestic tube was raised Upon its mighty piers. Enormous tube! for such thou art, Thy form so vastly planned ; Calls to my mind that princely Mart, Which Moses' raised on land. Nay do not scorn to be compared With Moses' *vast Depot— A greater Mart was never reared— And I'm alloweg to know. But what is giant bulk alone, When rightly understood? 'Tis nought, unless some use is shown — Some end to public good. The Mart of Moses, like to thee, Was thus designed to act ; And every article we see Establishes the fact. Fo equal bath there eve/ been To Mors' dress display; And proofs of this thou must have seen Upon thy launching day. Didst thou not note, on either shore, The gentlemen attired In Moses' dress, which more and more, Deserves to be admired ? I noticed them : for there they were, In tens of thousands, too ; And oft amid the exciting stir, I turned me round to view. Great tube (and here I placed my hand Slap-bang upon my heart) May'st thou retain as firm a stand As Moses' noted Mart. LIST OF . PRICES. ZEADT MADE.

THE GERMAN HOSPITAL AT DALSTOIS.—The annual general court of the governors of this valuable institution was held yesterday at the London Tavern. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, who had kindly undertaken to preside on the occasion, took the chair at 12 o'clock. In his address to the meeting, ' which was numerously attended, his Royal Highness explained the nature and the purpose of the meeting, viz., the adoption of certain resolutions respecting the manner of the management of the charity and the elec tion by the governors of a certain number of' members to fill the vacancies occasioned by the outgoing, as p 0- vided by the statutes of the irstitution, of certain mem bers of the committee. His Royal Highness congratu lated the company on the improved state of the affairs of the hospital, which had enabled the committee to acquit all debts which had formerly hampered them, and on the final cessation of those unfortunate dissensions which at one time seriously threatened the existence of the Ger man Hospital. A series of resolutions, by which the thanks of the Court were given to the treasurer, the vice-treasurer, the chaplain, the secretary, the physicians, and the surgeons of the institution, was next proposed by the Royal Chairman, and passed by the unanimous vote of the assembly, and 10 new members of the com mittee having been elected, a vote of thanks to his Royal Highness was moved by Mr. Sieveking, and passed by the enthusiastic assent of the meeting, which then broke Ue ROYAL HIGHLAND SCHOOL SOCIETY.—The anni versary festival of this institution was held on Wed nesday evening, at the Freemasons"ravern, when nearly one hundred gentlemen dined together, the Duke of Argyll in the chair. In proposing " The Health of . the Queen" the chairman said that he knew, from personal observation, that her Majesty was the best Queen who had ever sat on the throne of that kingdom, and Ns ho was most anxious to fulfil the duties of her high station. She had always manifested the deepest interest in the welfare of her people. When ever she could withdraw from the imperative duties of state, she always seized the opportunity for endeavouring to promote the welfare of her Scotch subjects. On all occasions, and at all times, she was most anxious for the prosperity of the Highland School Society, and he was therefore sure that all true-hearted Scotehmen would readily unite in drink. ing, "Health and Long Life to her Majesty the Queen." — (Applause.) The Duke successively gave—" The Queen Dowager," " Prince Albert,"" The Prince of Wales, and the rest of the Royal Family ;" as also " The Army and Navy ;" in reference to the last of which toasts he said that he was desirous of giving all honour to those persons who belonged to either branch of the defensive services; and he would say, " God speed and long live the men who, in the army and navy, fought at the command of duty, and maintained the rights of their Queen and country."—(Cheers). "Prosperity to the Highland Schools " having been drunk, the Duke of Argyll said that, among the many charitable institu tions which abounded in that country there was not one which, with so small amount of means, coaferred such lasting and durable benefits upon Scotland. The Health of the Chairman " and other cus tomary toasts having been given, his Grace withdrew amidst the warmest plaudits of the company. The Secretary then read the report of subscriptions, amongst which were announced, her Majesty, 504 ; Queen Dowager, 10 guineas; Lord Drumlanrig, 10 gui neas; Duke of Argyll, 251., annually; J. Baines, Esq., 10 guineas ; Dr. Cumming, 5 guineas; Dr. Stubbing, 5 guineas ; J. Forbes, Esq., 5 guines. The party was enlivened by several Scotch songs from the Misses Birch and Mr. Cooper; the performances of Mackay, her Ma jesty's piper, and by the sword dance, performed in a most exquisite manner by a young Scotchman. CANADA COMPANY.—The half-yearly meeting of the court of proprietors was held yesterday, Charles Franks, Esq., governor, in the chair. A statement was read of the amount of sales and leases of land made by the company up to June 7, from which it appeared that 1,751 acres of Crown reserve and Huron tract lands bad been sold at au average of 14s. Bd. per acre, and 25,338 acres had been leased, making a total of 27. 089 acres disposed of. 'I h e receipts of the company inbanadaaueps to the 9ih June amounted to 12,6251. 10s. 11d., a sum short of the income from the same sources d co u o ring T th he e corr esponding period of ta At year by about 4 , e f Ch a i r man attributed thi s diminution to the operation o causes to which he bad alluded at the meeting in 3tlay last—viz., a state of unparalleled distress in Canada during eighteen months, the failure of the timber trade, the commercial panic in Europe, and the unusually large importation of goods from England in 1845-6. Still the directors recommended the payment of the usual divi dend of six per cent. clear of income-tax for the half year ending lOila July next, for which purpose it would be necessary to borrow a sum of 8.000/. There was due to the company a sum of 185.0001., secured on the set tlers' land, which was increasing in value daily, and their interests would be advanced by the approaching introduction of railways, one having been already designed between Halifax and Quebec. It would be their policy, therefore, not to sell their land, but to let it on leases for a term of ten years, and they might expect that the deficiency which, on an average of the last four years, amounted to about 14,0001. per annum beyond their income, would be shortly made up. The proposal of the directors, being approved of by the proprietors, was put, and carried unanimously. The meeting then separated, after having passed the usual vote of thanks to the Chairman. Another grand fete will take place shortly in aid of baths and washhouses for the poor, under the same ex alted and distinguished patronage which was given to the fete at Willow Bank, last year, for the same object.

AND ITS EFFECTS. TO THE EDITOR OFTHE SUN. //tin,—At a time when the whole continent of Europe is in a state of confusion, when nations seem awakening from the lethargy and supineness of centuries, when " the right divine of kings to govern wrong" is unani mously denied—it is a source o f cong ratulation that England has not, in some way, been drawn into the con vulsion that is shaking the thrones of the un-Holy Alliance of 1815. To those who would urge the Govfrnrnent to aid in the cause of Lygitiincy tr ; : : air-t 'h , - isii( Sof the natii;i s. of the earth, the folluainv wails (11 the Rise and Progress of ihe National Debt—thg offspring of Queen Anne's wars in 1700, and the fruits of wars ever since— may afford instruction and caution, as well as statistical information. In 1760 (ninety-one years ago) George the Second departed this life, leaving what was considered a heavy debt of 50 000,0004 His grandson, George the Third, ascended the throne on the 25th of October, 1760, in the midst of an expt:riffte war, which, however, he promised in his first address to his l'araient, " to bring to an honourable. and lastieg p,:-ace, in conc. re with his allie," In 1763 that p- arc took place; the British arms triumphed, an adeittion was u.ade to the British t' rritory by the annexation of No'th Aicarica; an arlditi(r) was made to the national honour-Bu.t to the ',tutorial debt, which in the budget of that year is put do vu at some thing like 100,000,000/. Ilete, then, we perceive the result of one war to be the entailem nt of an additional debt of 50,000,0001. in six years, on a population of about six millions, whole whole rev( rue was under 12.000,0001. annually, with a circulating specie of only 15,0(30,000/. Although in a time of peace, the war establishment was continued for ten years after this time, ceding daily the sum of 2,000/. to the fast-increasing debt; toe militia was still kept on, adding 500,000/. to the expenditure; the civil list rose from 800,0001. to 1,000,000/.; and general dissatisfaction prevailed. The national debt having increased to 136.000,0001, in the year 1774, the people became loud in their demands for its reduction. The Government received many sug• gestions on the subject, among which the following, having something plausible about it, I shall endeavour to describe; the mere so, as this plan, or something simi lar, was actually under trial, and 9,000,000/. funded stock purchased and paid off, when the American war occurred, putting at once a stop to the reduction of the army,navy, and ordnance departments, &C. Proposed plan for paying eff the National Debt in forty years—namely 1814. -Ti me 1774, debt, 136,000,0001. The yearly surplus of revenue over expen diture was '"' ••• ... £500,000 Continuing the land-tax of 4s. in the pound (the war tax) ...

These items being altogether in dependent of the annual revenue would have been avail able after this purchase, for further reducing the debt annually about 3,000,0001., which, with the interest saved in proportion, would have placed this country above all its difficulties and out of debt, before the year 1814. But the year 1775 W 45 not destined to be thus blessed. The Ministers were active in pursuing measures which increased the burdens of the country. It is particularly necessary to make a sparing use of power in order to preserve that power; but the British Government thought otherwise. They had been too much accustomed to look across the Atlantic, as at pre sent in India, &c., to view increasing millions whom w• had a right to command, whose property was at our disposal. whose law was our will, and to call them our subjects, willingly to forego that privilege; consequently the American war took place, the army and navy became alarmingly increased, the national debt nearly doubled, the national honour suffered in the estimation of fo reigners, and after much blood spilt, the burning of a few towns, dockyards, and ships, America declared its inde pendence in 1783, and ;he revenue of England sustained a loss of nearly a million annually on American produce. here again is the result of another war—a war, the plea for which was that our honour was engaged, and that we could not now recede from it without humilia tion. This is what Republican France apologises for its aggressions on Republican Rome. Be this as it may. the Parliamentary returns show that the American war added 100,000,0001. to the national debt, I viz., 236.000,000/. in 1783. For the next ten years England was comparatively at peace. The French revolution began in 1789, and the year 1793 had not expired when this country was once more engaged in war, along with other European Powers against France. From this period there seems to have been no limit— no check to the expenditure, and the only matter of astonishment now is, where it came from, and whither it went. In the following list it will be seen that the addition to the debt in some years was more than 1,000,000/. a week, and in tho year 1814 (the year in which the debt was to have been paid off) there was an addition to the debt of 93,536,3671. or about ten thousand pounds per hour.

Thirty-three millions a year ! This was the result of the last war, and closed a reign, the longest and most disastrous to this :country—a reign of sixty years—a king whose family took a million annu ally from the country—and who, at his death left his people a debt of 860,000,0001. sterling, which may be thus divided over the, sixty years:- 13,000,0001. a year; 1,000,000/. a month; 250.000/. per week; 35,0001. per day; 1,6401. per hour. Since 1820 there has been expended on our war estab lishments, 400,000,000/., and this too, in times of peace. The annual revenue of the country averages about 53,000,0001.—0ver a million a week. One-half of this sum is applied to the interest of the debt; then comes a demand of 16,462,0001. for our naval and military estab lishments, which leaves us in this position. 'rake the present year, the most favourable for the Government: — The revenue is thus disposed of— To national debt To army, navy, ordnance, &c. Leaving for the whole civil management ... X27,763,527' ... 16,462,350 £44,225 87T 9,061,233 £53,287,100 Thus, out of every twenty shillings paid in taxation, three only is required for the purposes of support for the civil Government, whilst the seventeen goes to pay the interest of the debt, and provide for the army and navy. Lsst year the army estimates were higher than this by 1,500,0001.; and the twelve years previous show an increase of nearly ten millions. All this time the cowl• try was at peace. The following is a comparison between the two pail riods 1760 and 1649, with which I shall conclude:— 1760. 1849. Population ...... 6,000,000 Population .... . 29,500,000 Debt L50,000,000 Debt (about) X 7800900,000 Interest on debt 1,700,000 Interest on debt 27,76 3 , 527 Revenue 00 000 Army, navy, &c. 16,462,350 Army and navy 1, , 5 , Civil Expenditure ... 11 400 000 Expenditure 800,000 Civil list ......... lis t B we perm_ ive that in 1760 the revenue was about this 2 p er head, an d that in 1849 it is somethin I: underder that amount per head. In 1760 the eighth part of the revenue went to pay the funded debt; and the same for the army and navy, while in 1849 seven parts out of the eight are required. The debt has multiplied since 1760 sixteen times qty amount; the population about fivefold, and the revenue about fivefold also. The army and navy expenditure has also increased since that period about fourteen times the amount; and The Civil List has trebled.

THE IRON TRADE OF SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE:. llANswowrit, THURSDAY EYENING.—TO. thy, at two o'clock, the pri vate pre li m i nar y meeting of the iron. masters of this district was held at Bolton's, the new inn in this village, when, we are sorry to say, the state of the trade was reported to be such as to render a further re. duction of 30s. per ton necessary. This makes a reduc. Lion of 30s. per ton on the declared prices of last quarter (lay, end with no prospect of improvement. We were in. formed by one of the most extensive masters in the dis. trict that we.might report trade as bad. The falling off in the consumption of railway iron cannot be supplied by the ordinary demands of trade, and the powers of pro• duction having so greatly increased the supply is greater than quantity required.

OF EXPENDITURE. - In our advocacy.of a Financial Reform, it will be seen that we do not seek to confer a privilege upon one class, at the expense of an other ; but in our transactio ns, to apply principles of such sterling value and universal import as must prove, in the fullest sense of the term, equally advantageotts to all. We seek, in fact, to reduce, not the income, but the expenditure, of every individual. How this may be effected the following outline of our novel, yet well appreciated business system, will readily show. POSSESSING LARGE ESTABLISHMENTS in most of the principal towns in Great Britain, our concentrated purchases are necessarily very extensive ; from this cause we are enabled to obtain materials direct from the manufacturers, for cash, at prices considerably lower than the average. Our garments are de signed and cut by talented artists, and manufactured by experienced workmen ; our profits are calculated at a nominal per-cenage upon original cost, and the price is marked on every garment,t in plain gores, from which no deviation is'alloa ed. These facts, together with the accommodation afforded by the exchange of garments not approved after purchase, afford advantages to our patrons such as have beau seldom, if ever, elsewhere presented, enabling them to effect a reduction in their expenditure, at least in the item " Clothing," of not less than 40 per cent., as the following brief price list will testify to some extent : EXAM MADE. 0, d. q
