GENTLEMEN, ISHOULD not of my own accord have ventured to offer myself as a CANDIDATE for the REPRESENTA TION 4f so important a Town as LIVERPOOL, feeling the responsibility of so great a trust; but having received from you a requisition, most numerously and respectably sogned, soliciting me to do so, I lose no time in responding to your call. The position I now hold under the Earl of Derby leaves no doubt as to my opinions and politics generally. I look with admiration at the course which he has pursued since his acces sion to office; and I will assist him to the utmost of my power in carrying out the views he has so ably expressed in the House of Lords. __ I will resist all grants of publk-nloney to the Roman Catholic Church, in whatever for ley may be proposed. I will devote myself to the tull'itncement of your local inte rests, and will sedulously end to the private business which you may bring under t otice of Parliament. When the Dissol n shall be near at band, I will do myself the honour of ting upon you personally; and I trust that, by returning !ember of the Government as your representa tive in the House of Commons, you will shew the opinion which the first Commercial Community in the Empire enter tains of the principles and policy of the present Administration. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient, humble servant, W. FORBES MACKENZIE. London, April 3rd, 1852. TO MY FELLOW-TOWNSMEN, THE FREE BURGESSES AND ELECTORS OF TIIE BOROUGH OF LIVERPOOL. -- - GENTLEMEN, LAVING received a Requisition, signed by a very numerous and highly-influential body of Electors and Freemen inviting me to become a CANDIDATE for the honour of representing your BOROUGH in the ensuin g Parliament, I have felt that I could not, consistently with my duty, de cline to accept the flattering invitation. With respect to the Navigation Laws and our Commercial Policy generally, I think that our intercourse with foreign nations ought to he regulated upon principles of reciprocity, as the sound basis of real freedom of trade, of which I highly approve. rissr on . lam opposed to the imposition of nc increased duty upon corn, except it is called for by the er a l voice of th e p eo pl e; but I shall be ready to consid any measure that may be brought forward by her hlaje 's Government for the relief of those important interest inch have been so injuriously affected by recent legisla •m n. _ _ Although a firm lyd - decided Protestant, and sincerely at tached to the Estalolfshed Church, of which I am a member, I am in favour of the free exercise by others of the same civi and religious liberty that I claim for myself. I am opposed to the endowment of the College of Maynooth, and I shall think it my duty to support any measure that may be necessary to maintain the prerogative of our gracious Queen, and the spiritual independence of the nation. With regard to the special interests and business of this great port, I can assure you that if elected as one of your represen tatives, they will at all times have my best attention. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your faithful servant, CHARLES TURNER. Liverpool, sth April, 1852. PARIS, CAEN, AND CHERBOURG RAILWAY. ENGLISH DIRECTORS. Sir John Easthope, Bart. W. J.

Eiberpoot tanbarbo TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 4, 1852. THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER'S FINANCIAL STATEMENT. A. PEACEFUL revolution has just been accom plished, and Great Britain has been de:ivered, for ever, from the rule of the " Red Tapists." For centuries past, and more especially since the days of OLIVER CROMWELL, the administration of the affairs of this country has been monopolized by a select few, attached to one or other of our great antagonistic parties. The battle of opposing prin ciples, or policy, has been often lost and won : the feelings of the people being arrayed now on this side, and now on that. But in how few cases have those whose eloquence or talent has mainly contributed to secure the victory, been permitted to participate in the rewards ! Whatever leading statesman may have been called, as the result of such a struggle, to the councils of his Sovereign, has been forthwith surrounded by a hungry brood of men of mere details,—officials, who have served a sort of apprenticeship to folding papers, compiling returns ; who are au fait at the proper etiquette and routine to be observed in conducting public business. If men of large views, and commanding talent, have presumed to press their claims to con sideration, the reply has been "avaunt!—ite procul profani 1" They have been told that they were not possessed of the requisite "official experience," and second and third rate men have strutted in stations which better and abler men have won for them. Lord DERBY, on assuming the reins of govern ment, was in the presumed dilemma of having no such men of " official experience" within his reach. The subordinates of the PEEL ministry had set up for themselves, and were bidding independently for power. Those of Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S go- vernment were a snug family party, attached by cousinship, and other similar ties, to the fortunes of their leader. The Earl of DERBY had, therefore, before him the alternative of confessing himself un able to form a government, or of breaking through the established rule of things, and selecting men of high ability, though unused to official life and its ways. He chose the bolder and more manly course. He recognized and relied upon the talent which had gained for him the victory over his oppo nents. He opened up " a new mine," and he has onf ffic detailse c fo i a r l t h t an h bn e idt C u i ge n ts: e w ast; E: t ht L re s i ce a kx n sn, d l N ms av i ye L syaobiNan abate been rewarded by th e di scover y o f " th e genu i ne h tt o hi r ae e t in enHoe ed their absurd pretensions. After the career, thus far, of the gentlemen placed at the head of the va rious departments of Lord DERBY'S government, and especially after the masterly financial exposi tion delivered by the new CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER on Friday night, it must now be acknowledged that there is nothing so very difficult in the administrative department of government, that it cannot be mastered by talent and applica tion; and that, for the future, when men of a high class of intellect are within the reach of a minister, he need be under no necessity to bid for the services of well taught parrots, or mere masters of routine ant precedent. With respect to the manner of Mr. DISRAELI'S statement, it is acknowledged to have been beyond all praise. It was not, as many may have antici pated from such a man, merely a well-conned lesson. He had evidently studied throughout, and was at home in, his subject. But the matter will not have satisfied everybody. It has not satisfied —nay, it has confounded—his political opponents. They hoped from him for some crude proposition; some claptrap, got up with a view to attract popu larity as a hustings question, but incapable of being carried out. Mr. DISRAELI, however, has shewn a most un-Whiggisb aversion to such dishonesty; and in this he has acted wisely. He has looked a little beyond the mere emergency of the hour; and the fact ought to afford assurance, both to the Whig-Radical party and to Conservatives, that the Ministry, of which he is a prominent member, con template such a consolidation of its power as will enable it to govern the country, upon a definite policy, for an extended period. A few unreflecting members of his own party may also be amongst the number of the disappointed ; but such men ought to weigh well his position, and the impor tance of maintaining secure the ability of the State to meet promptly the demands which may be made upon it. We admit, at once, that with a surplus revenue last year, amounting to L 2,180,479, some reduction of particular taxes, desirable in them selves, might be advocated. This could be done, however, only by those who are prepared to submit to the infliction, for an indefinite period, of the Income and Property-tax. It should be borne in mind, too, by such parties, that the surplus in question could not be depended upon, as likely to to occur again this year. The late Chancellor had the benefit of the Exhibition year. He had also half-a-year of the Window Duties, now repealed, which, deducting the produce of its substitute, the Property Tax, amounted to upwards of aOO,OOO. Mr. DISRAELI has had left him by the Whig party the Caffre war, the cost of which for the year is already estimated at - - E660,000. Under such cir cumstances, the renewal for twelve months of the Income Tax is inevitable ; and, even with this aid, the expected surplus for the year, of £461,000, is rather too small to afford any sensible relief to the of reduced taxation In every respect, we consider the course taken by Mr. DISRAELI as the very best which he could them in diplomacy and chicanery, while they them. But those selves were as yet only theoretical rulers whose hopes or doubts, as the case might them so much concern, forgot one important point The new men were regulated by old princip They look to our country, and though tl ey see her old as compared with some of the ephemeral states of Europe, yet she is still young and• vigorous, and, as an American once said, " with a pulse like a cannon." They see our Constitution, beneath which our institutions have grown up and flourished, and which has conferred happiness on the millions of many generations, aid they think it more wise to preserve, respect, or amend, than to destroy impulses of patriotism are as true to nature as those of home and youthful association ; and he who is not dead to feeling, or oblivious of benefits confer red, will desire to spare the venerable institutions of our country, whatever valuable changes they may undergo. Besides, there is a vigour, a buoy ancy, a hope, connected with first efforts, which often carries one through with success when the experienced fails through excess of caution; and the present Administration will make up by energy and truth, what they want in years of official life. The supporters of the Radical press are labouring to transfix the PREMIER on one of the horns of a dilemma. If he abandon Protection, they say that he is a hypocrite in himself, and a traitor to those who trusted in him ; and if he advocate it, he is met by the cry of " a cheap loaf." Long before coming into power, Lord DERBY warned the agricul turists that they should seek for plans more scien tific and productive, rather than rely on acts of Parliament; and one of the first of his declarations when in office was, that he would leave the settle ment of the question to the country itself. Besides, there is work enough for the government to do. There is the consolidation of our resources at home, and the care of our vast colonies abroad ; the main tenance of peace and good order, and the sustaining of our character and position at foreign courts. The Augean stable of Chancery has to be cleaned out; the Church has to be reformed,—both in her revenues and her officers,—by the pruning knife, but not by laying the axe to the root; education and intellectual influences have to be promoted; and the unequal pressure of taxation greatly lessened. If the government eschew party strife, and address themselves to these wholesome measures of reform, and others like them, their names will go down to posterity with praise and benedictions, and " the country will have no right to regret having sub mitted them to their first assay." As an earnest of these and other advantages, we quote the words of Lord DERBY himself, in his late admirable speech at the Goldsmiths'-hall :—" We feel that it is not our duty to be protectors of this or that craft ; but the protectors, and defenders, and up holders of the whole; and by maintaining and encouraging the industry of the country—by up holding and supporting the law,—we shall afford the best encouragement to the industry of every denomination, and maintain the integrity of the institutions of this country, whether in church or state. This we shall do by maintaining inviolate the constitution, and upholding the religious liber ties of this country, and the rights of the Protest ant religion, from whatever q u ar t er assailed." The confidence which the country reposes in the Earl of DERBY and his administration, is the result of good principles and high personal character. Instead of attributing everything to secondary causes, like Sir Balaam in the poem, he acknow ledges that GOD has to do with nations as well as with individuals. Instead of filling every possible post of honour, or of profit, with incompetent kins men or useless matrimonial allies, nepotism is no where seen, but an honourable and useful selection is made of honourable and useful men. They do not blow hot to-day and cold to-morrow, maintain ing one set of principles in opposition to another in office; but adhering to the great truths formerly enunciated, yet ready to make every personal con cession for the public good, we have strong hopes that they will carry the right measures in the right spirit. Instead of throwing a sop to the advocates of democracy or anarchy, with the despicable hope of making their bed more comfortable, and pro longing their official repose,—their appeal is to the good sense and good principles of the community, to strengthen their hands in giving effect to law and liberty. The position which Lord DERBY occupies at present is a fitting one for a member of the illustrious house of STANLEY. The first Earl of DERBY placed the crown on the head of HENRY VII., at Bosworth field, and staunched the wounds by which unhappy England had well nigh bled to death. A younger son of his, in the northern part of this shire, roused the chivalry of the two palatine counties to resist the inroads of an invading sovereign, and on the hill of Flodden secured victory and peace for England. Our battles are now fought upon a different arena, but the re sults are no less momentous ; and it is interesting to find, that if there is not another RICHMOND in the field, there is at least another STANLEY at the helm of the state, as able for his duties as any of his predecessors. In whatever respects he may differ from others of his name and lineage, in one class of qualities he coincides with them,—in re spect for true religion, devotion to his country, and loyalty to his SOVERElGN,—qualities which must still command the respect and admiration of the wise and good.

Farthe I the Jumper who would g ', the generous c our constitution extends to the suffering brute; for the dog is protected from the cruel sportsman, the ox in the shambles from unnecessary true t of the butcher, the horse from the sax the par spirit of the drunken cuter, and the ass from Peter Bell in " The spirit at vidently is to yield protection wherever it is needed; to temper might by right; and to guide the rays of intelligence, under the form of inspection and evidence, into every corner where darkness is loved more than light. We may be told that though all this is true in the abstract, it is quite an assumption that cruelty or even compulsion is practised in Nunneries know the contrary to be true; and we desire to know more. •It is intolerable that in a free country there should be any inquisitorial spot where the voice of the law cannot reach, or from where the voice of the oppressed, if uttered, cannot be heard: The law has abolished the absolutism which was formerly retained by our powerful barons; there is no one who now possesses "the power of pit and halter ;" there are no private bastiles, and it is only in romances or histories of mediaeval times that we read of the cell and the dungeon, and the prison beyond hope or recall. Even the Queen of England is limited in her prerogative by law; and though she may perform deeds of mercy, she cannot, she dare not, and she would not, perform deeds of darkness or of cruelty. Yet Mr. STOWELL truly said. "without the walls of a monastery you are in England, within it you are in Rome." There are recent revelations respecting the sister hood of Plymouth, over whom there is neither lock nor bolt nor bar, who are free to enter and to retire, who do not live behind turreted battlements or grated lattices. Yet unkindness, amounting almost to cruelty, has been practised there ; and the . public will not long endure the system, if it be such as it is described. There is a spiritual seduction as well as a moral one, and the law, which always assumes the return to a right course, must provide for its. possibility. The following remarks were written long before this movement commenced, by a continental tra veller, sick with the scenes which he witnessed : This leads me to notice that strange anomaly in our law, that the freest country , on earth should not have pro vided any safeguard against persons being carried off to religious houses, and there forcibly detained against their will, It is monstrous to think that Englishmen, with the warnings of history before them, should not long ago have decreed that every monastery and convent, if such esta mibnl s pg n cttr e ea n dt e t s .b y a :la re fn d t oi mostt bo e Roa r mt a e as m nc d o , ; h ot o 4n u ot b w e ni tai p tli e o r nt i o hs d e i havec l v ii i y l lic ABOLISHED these institutions as public nuisances, corrupt ing the morals and encouraging idleness, the least that we Protestants can do is to protect the liberty of the subject against the contrivances of their cunning heads. If recent cases of unwilling incarceration do not open the ayes of Parliament, the country must adopt summary means to obtain redress ; for that establishments should exist in t o h u e i a f r a Kl e , r g s o v o e f r justice,ne d by f i o s r foreign g factn p pr id a t s t an would inaccess ible scarcely bteo credited even by a Tyrolese or a Spaniard." WHIG-RADIC AL ME ETING AT THE ROYAL HOTEL, LAST NIGHT. Last evening, a meeting of the friends of Messrs. Card well and Ewart was held at the large room at the Royal lintel, Dale-street, corner of Moorfields. The meeting was announced for half-past seven o'clock, at which time a respectable, though not numerous, company were assembled. Mr. J. H. MAcitAR was called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN proceeded at once to open the meeting, by observing that, in a neighbouring ward, an attempt had been made, upon a previous evening, to interrupt the meeting, and to prevent that ebullition of feeling which would have manifested itself in favour of Free Trade ; but if any such attempt was made that night, da h in e tod h ry o a p ftt e oe d rp t tu h ht e a r it e : ago o s o ab abandon sufficient ndo n English t feeling errn c todown.T ha.

(Cheers.) He believed that the cloven foot was exhibited there, and ought to be opposed. The speaker then proceeded to allude to the efforts of the Liberals to abolish the slave trade, and charged those who now soughtto makethe present a religious question with refraining from affording their assistance on that occasion. (Applause.) Did they lend a helping hand to repeal the bread tax ? No. Among those who opposed that measure were Messrs. Turner and Forbes Mackenzie. (Hear, hear.) He was, therefore. firmly convinced that every one would join to assist in returning Ewart and Cardwell. (Hear, hear.) Mr. H. C. LANGTON was called upon to propose the fist resolution to the effect that it was the opinion of the meeting that the system of Free Trade having conduced to the national welfare, such as support it are entitled to the support of the constituency. He contended that free trade had answered all the expectations of its supporters ; and when it had failed to do so. it was time to return to Protection. He was old enough to recollect the period when Free Trade was first introduced, by the proposal of Mr. lluskisson, for a reduction in the duty on silk. It was then predicted that if the measure was carried the trade would be ruined ; but what was the result ? They all knew. After alluding to the abolition of the East India Company's charter, which he said had reduced the price of tea. he proceeded to remark that it had been said the repeal of the corn laws would have the effect of reducing wages.
