TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STAND.4RD. have been amused in perusing the various lettel d which have appeared in the local press, bearing upon the lat e , election for this borough; and though most of the writers °' those letters may feel justified in having obtruded upon til e public in consequence of the - direct allusion which may hal e been made to them; yet I cannot trace the object which intl i " viduals of whose names no mention has been made, can per sibly have, in volunteering their effusions. An individual, wil e signs himself " John Twiname," in Gore's paper of yesterdai , relates a rigmarole sort of conversation which took place his counting-house, relative to his having been canvassed some friends in the interest of Lord Sandon, and the groun d for obtruding himself upon the public, seems to be an idea floating in his mind, that He was the Merchant in Brunswick' street, who had been so canvassed. Doubtful, however, of Jj e own memory in detailing the conversation correctly,. he is ce roborated (though very clumsily) by another individual, alb ° signs " F. Maxwell." I search, in vain, for the names of the one or the other of thos e important personages having been mixed up publicly with the hr calities of the election: I search, in vain, for any new light wbie ll they have thrown upon the various rumours which have given I'lo to literary productions in the espousal of one side or the other; and I am really at a loss even to guess the object which thos e gentlemen have in view in appearing before the public; excep t it be the gratification of their own vanity, by endeavouring to prove to the inhabitants of this town, their deep sense of th e purity of election laws, and, at the same time, their utter disre gard for the grammatical laws established by Lindley MurraY' I am a family man, and do not wish to have the taste of DI/ young children vitiated by their reading such productions, 0 4 in the columns of a common newspaper; and I would therefor6,l respectfully recommend "J. Twiname," and " F. Maxwell , to confine themselves, as heretofore, to the sifting of m atter / connected with their trade in grain; and to abstain, for th e , future, from attempting to winnow the unsound from the seise part of political locality. Liverpool, Dec. 28, 1832. SAN DON lAN. MR. EWART :-THE SLAVERY QUESTION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STaNDABD. Stn,—The consistency of Mr. Ewart has called in Tie r tion, and more particularly by yourself. I have only to e xpel my hope that you will continue t o con t ras t hi s d ec l ara ti o ns aa actions, his sentiments one week with those of the next. l b .: task, I admit, will be tedious ; but it is one from which it '' your duty, as a public Journalist, not to shrink. e tt Mr. Ewart came forward as the disciple of Canning a". r Huskisson. This is admitted. But, that he has deserted tb el i principles involves only a general charge . of inconsistencY• will now bring under your notice a particular one. The foils!: ing is an extract from his speech, on his first appearance befo g the Merchants of the Town, on the 15th October, 1830: o f " There is a question connected with another hemisphere deep and important interest to our Town. Gentlemen, the i is no one who hears me, no n e, l am sure of the great owner s ° I. property in our West India Colonies, who is not an advocate t i general freedom. Yet there is no one, I hope, so infatuate(' o to suppose that freedom is licentiousness, or that _hasty and temperate measures are consistent with the happiness of the 51 0 11 e more than with the interests of the master. The interests of t , two move, in my opinion, pari passu. No amendment, 10 artificial a system, can be otherwise than gradual, and w e coin s '` a double injustice—to the freeman and the bondsman—if t ee late a property which we ourselves have sanctioned, and which gl grown beneath our own legislation. RIGHTS so long acknowlet l cannot be taken away without a liberal compensation:" idt• I would ask your readers to contrast the above with Ewares sentiments as so recently declared on our hustire and then to ask themselves, dispassionately, what descr i l i o tion of property can be safe in th e k ee pi ng o f a l eg i s l a tor 0 1 declares certain steps to b e a v i o l a ti on o f property, i n 11° ;', 1, and, in 1832, declar es hi s rea di ness t o mount t h ose steps,-- 4 : 1 , e in 1830, acknowledges a right which he disavows in. 1832. march of revolution in France is not forgotten by all. His t° ll . e and experience are not treated, by all, as of no worth; and question I ask is a serious one, and one which affects 7 of What becomes of Mr. Ewart's consistency, or of his regar d property? This question will, no doubt, be satisfactorily eV' swered, on behalf of Mr. Ewart, by some of your able collie r , tors,—worthy and disinterested mouth-pieces, doubtless. I 1° already reconciled myself to a most abject apology to t b o e :j, liberal gentlemen, for bringing this question under notice, a 1 feeling assured that I shall be most satisfactorily answered'e only request the favour of their saying what penance will a t° h t, or my presumption. I shall, perhaps, be told that I to i tii with as much truth and justice, question the veracity of 611 tor, as the consistency of Mr. Ewart : but no matter, Yours, &e. A TOWNSIII.O. ASSESSED TAXES, TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL ST./IND./OP' 0 SIR,—As you have give 4 in your paper of Fiiday 15 j extract from the Guardian and Public Ledger, remarking some asperity upon the operations necessary to make the 10 : - 1 ) duty equal, by surcharging those who are not assessed so 01 as their neighbours; and as the same article in Peremptrit terms says y "we must have the Assessed Taxes repealed may be useful, in order that your readers may have a col 4 4 view of the subject, to examine the items of which the Ass e6s taxes are composed.
