Valuations for Probate and Tranefer of Property punctually attended to.—Address Mr. NI Tiellued, Auctioneer and Ileneral Apprai,..cr, 16, Basnett street, Liverpool, ',4l3ttuiripai eitttin TO THE ELECTORS OF WEST DERBY WARD GENTLEMEN, • AVING been honoured with an invitation to offer myself for Re-election as one of your Representatives in the Town Council, I feel called upon by a due appreciation of the kindness and consideration I have uniformly received from you during the last six -years, again to place my services at your disposal. Since my last election, the most important event in the annals of the Corporation has taken place. I allude to the transfer of our Town Dues. As a member of the committee specially charged with the settlement of this question, I joined my colleagues in an anxious endeavour to arrange as satis factory a commutation as powerful adverse influences would permit. To all the other questions which have engaged the attention of the Council I have ever given my best consideration. I am not aware that there is: any particular subject now occupying attention, on which it is necessary that I should here express my opinion. I may be allowed to remark, that believing, as I have always done, that self-government in its various forms is the main bulwark of our civil and religious freedom, I shall strenuously endeavour to preserve our municipal powers as amongst the most cherished rights of Englishmen. If it be your pleasure to send me to the Council for the third time as one of your members, I shall embark on my new career with a determination to pursue the path which I originally marked out for myself, of a zealous attention to each subject presented to the Council or its Committees, unin fluenced by those extraneous elements which ought not, in my opinion, to be imported into the consideration of questions of a purely local and special character. The wants of your ward and of tur town generally shall be my only landmarks. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your faithful servant, FRANCIS A. CLINT. 2, Beech-terrace, Edge-lane, 17th October, 18.59. 1 TO THE ELECTORS OF ST. PETER'S WARD. GENTLEMEN, WAS it honour of the Radicals, five years ago, to issue circulars on the morning of the Municipal Elec tion, stating that Mr. Banner had resigned, whereas, so far -from this being the case, he was returned by a large majority ? Was it becoming in Mr. Beloe stating in his address that Mr. Holme would not be willing to represent the ward again until he had an assurance whether this was really so or not? Is it honour in him re-issuing the address containing the objection able passage, notwithstanding Mr. Mohne's statement to the contrary? It is becoming in Mr. Bswring to take an active part with, and cycii to be chairman or tao e, opposing one of his present colleagues, equally elected by the voters as himself ? If it is not right to appoint an Alderman unless he has been elected by some constituency, is it the duty of any Councillor to dic tate to the Electors of his own ward, as Mr. Boring has done ? Is it becoming to vaunt Mr. Beloe's qualifications of an audi tor, notwithstanding the recent defalcations of the corporate money? Was it honour that Mr. Bally should have been disgraced, and Mr. Beloe rather applauded? Is it right that one who has lived fOr years, and spent thousands in the ward, should be supplanted by a Cockney, who has never even resided in the district ? These and a dozen other questions might be asked, showing amongst other things, the moral degradation the Radicals will allow themselves to wallow in ; but enough has been adduced to startle the wavering ; and it is believed the Electors of St. Peter's Ward are made of better stuff than to allow themselves to be made the tools of the Reform Association, and to•blindly assist that body in putting on the different constituencies par ties who will resort to any disreputable practices to gain their own ends, whilst trampling under foot the real liberties of the people, for your ardent (would-be) Reformer' is always in reality the greatest despot. Electors of St. Peter's Ward, then, do your duty to yourselves and descendants, and to show to the town at large you have not forgotten the true independence of Britons by returning Mr. Hulme triumphantly at the head of the poll.—Your obedient servant, AN ELECTOR. St. Peter's Ward, 26th Oct., 1859. TO THE BURGESSES OF VAUXHALL WARD. GENTLEMEN, HAVING been waited upon by a large and influential Deputation of your body with a Requisition very numerously signed, inviting me again to become'a Candidate to represent your Ward in the Town Council, -I acceded to the request, and at once placed my services at your disposal. During the time which I have had the honour of represent ing your interests, I have carefully watched every movement made, which had for its object the better government of the Corporate Estate,—the reform of every system of management not based on sound and satisfactory principles ; and I have endeavoured to promote and further every useful measure cal culated to increase our Corporate revenue, in order that such improvements as are really necessary to meet the growing wants of our largely-increasing trade might be effectually carried out. That great and important improvements are required, not only in this Ward, but throughout the town generally, must be self-evident. In resigning my trustinto your hands, I can with confidence refer to my past conduct as a proof that I have not been influenced by any party feeling, but solely actuated, in the discharge of my onerous duties, through a desire to maintain, in their fullest integrity, the rights of my consti tuents. • _ Should you again place me in the proud position which I have heretofore held, I will endeavour steadfastly to pursue that course of procedure which has given so much satisfaction to you, and whic!..,. by your desire, I wish fully to maintain, and carry out judiciously all the necessary requirements of the ratepayers. I have the honour to be, gentlemen, your faithful and obe dient servant, JOHN SHIMMIN. 150, Islington, Liverpool, let Octsber, 1859. TO THE BURGESSES OF SOUTH TOXTETH WARD. GENTLEMEN, tgAVING been solicited by a respectable deputation to pvrmlt iilyseit to De nonilliateu as a UANDIDAIt. at e ensuing Municipal Election, I have come to the resolution, though with'much diffidence, Of acceding to the request. From a residence in the Park of nearly 20 years, and from the nature of my business engagements during that lengthened. period, I trust I have gained a knowledge of its varied capabi lities and requirements. . In matters of a practical nature affecting the value of pro perty, and the sanitary condition of the ward, I should be enabled to confer benefit on the ratepayers beyond those whose knowledge in this respect is purely theoretical. Sprung from the people, it will at all times be my anxious desire to promote the happiness and prosperity of my fellow townsmen, and particularly to advance, by all educational, social, and recreative measures, the condition of the artizan and labouring population. I am of opinion that all public and private property should bear a fair proportion of local taxation. In politic - is I - am liberally Conservative, ready to extend to all who conscientiously differ from me the same rights and privi leges and the same independence of action I claim for myself. Though disposed to advance with the spirit of the times, and to reform with unsparing hand all acknowledged abuses, I trust I shall always be found the honest, though humble, pro tector of our admirable and time-honoured constitution. Having ample leisure, I shall, if elected, devote my time and energies to the service of the town to which I am under such deep obligations, and where the results of my labours are prin cipally invested.—l have the honour to be, gentlemen, your obedient, humble servant, ALEXANDER MILLER. 80, Miles-street, Toxteth-park, Oct. 22, 1859. TO TIIE BURGESSES OF PITT-STREET WARD. GENTLEMEN, -A A Requisition, numerously signed, has been presented to me, inviting me to myself to be nominated as a C NDIDATE to represent your interests in the Town Council. I feel deeply sensible of the honour, and mat cheerfully accede to that request, considering it both a duty and a pm lege to endeavour to fulfil a public trust when called upon in a constitutional manner. If, therefore, it be your pleasure to elect me as yof r representative, it will be my anxious study to discharge the duties of that important and responsible position in such a manner as to promote the welfare of the whole community. The enforcement of sanitary regulations, the improvement of the dwellings of the poor, increasing the number and extent of parks and playgrounds for the people, shall have my earnest support. But, as a preliminary step to all these important questions, and in order that the Council and also the people of Liverpool may know what means there are for the accomplishment of these great works, I will join most heartily in the efforts to obtain an early and complete state ment of the nature and extent of the corporate estate. This, I think, is one of the first duties to which the attention of your representatives ought to be directed. If returned to the Council it will be my sole object, to the best of my ability, to see that the public resources are exclusively and efficiently employed for the public good. K e eping this principle in view, I may state that the widening of Park-lane and the improvement of Cleveland square Market shall have my earliest and best attention. Being a large ratepayer in the ward, my interests, I may be permitted to say, are bound up with yours, and if I can serve you and the town at large, I shall be happy to do so.—l am, gentlemen, your obedient servant, JAMES STEEL. 78, Duke-street, Oct. 8, 1859. 1 TO THE BURGESSES OF ABERCROMBY, GREAT GEORGE, LIME-STREET, AND WEST DERBY WARDS. FELLOW Braonsits, WORDS are inadequate to express my disgust at the apathetic feeling which pervades your Wards at this particular crisis : I allude to your want of energy in not bringing forward candidates of Conservative principles to represent you on the Ist of November next. What, may I ask, is the cause of y9ur indifference to the principles which you profess to enunciate ? Has some powerful narcotic been mfused into your systems ? or have fair promises (made only to be broken) been held out to you To my mind it seems most suicidal that you should allow your adversaries to exer cise such an unlimited sway over you. I entreat, I implore of you, in the name of common sense, for the sake of those grand and noble principles which you profess to -follow, to throw off the shackles of despotism and republicanism, and be deter mined to preserve the grand bulwark of our constitution. This you can only effect by returning true Conservatives in the stead of out-lying and deceptive Radicals, at the forthcoming Municipal Election. I am, Fellow Burgesses, your obedient Servant, THOMAS BANNER. London-road, October 22, 1859. TO THE ELECTORS OF EXCHANGE WARD. GENTLEMEN, HAVING r e ceived a requisition very numerously signed by electors of the ward, of all parties, inviting me to become a candidate for re-election as one of your repre sentatives in the Municipal Council, I have much pleasure in acceding to the request. My long connection with the ward renders it unnecessary for me to make any declaration of my sentiments, which are well known to you. should you do me the honour of re-electing me, my best exertions shall be used to promote your interest, and the general welfare of the town. I have the honour to be, gentlemen, your obedient servant, Dingle-hall, Oct., 1858. MARLEB TURNER.

GEN TLEME ti, HE pe, md. of my delegated trust as your representative in the Town Council is about to expire. A deputation o your body has done me the honour to wait upon me with a view to its renewal. With pleasure I accept their invitation, and deem .t therefore no less a privilege than a duty to address a few words to you on the occasion. Whether they shall be parting words, or merely prelimindry to a continuance of out connection as constituents and representative, is a question for your sole decision. My conduct as a member of the Town Council for the last three years, i 5 before you. It is for you to decide how far that conduct has exceeded or fallen short of your expeetations. But this I think I may venture to say—all that I promised, when, in compliance with a numerously-signed requisition, I placed my services at your disposal, has been zealously and faithfully performed.. What I under, ook to do, if you con ferred upon me the honour of representing you, was simply to discharge the important duties thereby devolving upon me to the best of my ability. Perhaps I may be allowed to add, without incurring the charge of presumption, that even your opponents and mine cannot deny that this pledge has been fully redeemed. Should there be, however, any doubt on this point, I shall be happy to render the fullest possible account of my steward ship, whenever and wherever the opportunity is afforded. The matters to which I alluded three years ago, when, at your request, I offered myself as a candidate for your suffrages, have certainly not diminished in importance ; nor do they re quire less unremitting attention on the part cf your represen tatives. The Town Dues question has been settled, if not exactly as we could hate wished, and as justice demanded, still in a man ner far short of absolute confiscation. The part I took in effecting a compromise, when nothing less than such spoliation was sought by some of our envious opponents in the neigh bouring towns, is known to you all. For property held by as good a right as that on which some of our assailants enjoy their private estateswe have obtained some compensation, thou gh by no means an equivalent. This question having been thus settled, it seems to me a matter worthy of consideration, whether we should not now endeavour to come to some similar arrangement with re spect to the River Weaver Tolls, which are so heavy a burden on one important branch of the trade of Liverpool. These Tolls are far in excess of what: is necessary to maintain the navigation, and the surplus is applied to county purposes. This may be a very convenient arrangement for Cheshire landed proprietors, who seldom have to pay a county-rate of more than a penny in the pound, but it is not exactly in cofifor mity with the principle on which they assailed the Liverpool -Town Dues. The precise information !relative to the Corporate Estate, ordered to be furnished on the motion of Mr. Robertson' -Glad stone, of the non-compliance with which order, after a lapse of twelve months, I complained three years ago, has not yet been supplied. It is most important that, wherever the hitch lies, and whatever may be the motive for withholding it, this infor mation should be forthcoming ; and should you again return me to the Council, I will continue to use my best exertions to obtain it. I have endeavoured, as you are aware, to prevent the adop tion of a new mode of disposing of Corporate property, which I consider most unjust to the present ratepayers, since it Inflicts upon them increased taxation for the benefit of pos terity entirely uncalled for; and, failing in this attempt, at least to insure publicity and fair competition on all occasions of sale or lease. so as to obtain the best possible terms for the public; and prevent even the suspicion of collusion and jobbery. The importance of this question can hardly be over-rated. With proper administration of the Corporate Estate, annually increasing in value ' and judicious economy in expenditure, I believe there will be no necessity for a borough rate ; but that, otherwise, it will be unavoidable. Although a complete separation between the Corporate and Dock Estates has been effected, the interests of the two are, and must ever be, so interwoven, that a member of the Town Council, anxious to do his duty, will always have to keep a watchful cyo on the fuoccoclingo of the Dock Board anti the Council-Chamber is certainly the place in which he should direct the public attention to these proceedings whenever he considers it necessary so to do. Ard this duty has become all the more important since the transfer of its jurisdiction from the Corporation to a body of gentlemen, many of whom have no interest in the permanent welfare of either estate. The time may not be far distant when some determined stand against the extravagant expenditure of a body so con stituted will be necessary, and especially on the part of the owners of fixed property, who are the persons most interested in the proper management of the Dock Estate. Should such necessity arise, I trust that I shall never be found wanting, either as your representative, or, if that honour be denied me, as a simple member of this great community very largely in terested in its welfare. Being firmly convinced, after mueh inquiry and serious reflection, that the rating of the Dock Estate, and all other public property, towards the support of the poor, is a measure recommended not less by its justice than by its expediency, I need hardly assure you that I shall persevere in the use of my best efforts to accomplish that object, in whatever way they may seem to be most likely to be available. In conclusion, gentlemen, I venture to hope that no further exposition of my sentiments or intentions will be deemed neces sary from me in this address. At your Ward Meetings, Ishall be happy to afford any other explanation which may be required. For the present, therefore, I will only say that what you have found me in the past, you will, if you think fit to renew my trusteeship, find me in the future,—a zealous and painstak ing friend and advocate of every measure calculated, in my judgment, to promote the prosperity of the town and port, and the general wellbeing of the inhabitants. I have the honour to be, gentlemen, yours, very respectfully, JAS. R. JEFFERY. Compton-house, October 3, 1859. TO THE BURGESSES OF EVERTON AND KIRKDALE WARD. GENTLEMEN, 101)Y Lapse of time, my occupancy of the honourable . 1.) and responsible position to which you generously elected me three years ago as one of your Representatives in the Town Council is about to terminate. In reviewing my humble services during that period, whether in committee or in council, I can confidently say that I have at least faithfully and honestly endeavoured on all questions affecting either the interest of the town in general, or your ward in particular, to act up to my convictions of duty disin terestedly, impartially, and to the best of my judgment. Whether these endeavours have satisfied your reasonable expectations, and desires is a question solely for your decision. If permitted to form an opinion from the requisition which I have now had the honour to receive, so numerously signed by persons of all shades of opinion, desiring me again to permit myself to be nominated, I am certainly encouraged to believe that the mode in which my duties have been dis charged has been satisfactory to the large majority of the constituents. Under any other conviction than this I should have hesi tated to accede to the flattering wish now expressed, and shrunk from again seeking the suffrages of those whose good will I might unhappily have lost. Having no self interested ends to serve, I yield to a sense of duty, and in placing myself again in your hands I beg to assure you that, should it be your pleasure to re-elect me, my best energies shall continue to be devoted to the protection and promotion of your interests, with the advantage of a more enlarged and practical acquaintance with your varied wants than I could boast when you formerly gave me your confidence.

The clearly expressed or *on of so large a number of the Electors, relieves me of any diffidence I might otherwise I. we felt in assuming such a responsible position ; I therefore cheerfully comply with the request, and at once place myself in your hands.

GENTLEMEN, • HAVING received a Requisition numerously and respectably signed, to allow myself to be put in nomina tion as a Candidate for your suffrages at the approaching Mum cipal Election, I, on public grounds, do not hesitate to respond to that appeal, feeling assured that the cons:ituency of this important Ward will be rejoiced to have this opportunity of freeing itself from the thraldom of Radicalism, and shaking off the yoke of the Compton-house demagogue. I will not presume to follcw the example of my vain-glorious opponent by lauding myself to the skies, or endeavourinz to gull you into the belief that I have been the saviour and regenerator of Liverpool, although it is a notorious fact that he, and his twin brother in all political jobs, were, by their uncalled-for interference, the means of depriving the people of Liverpool of half a million of money. I will, however , promise you, that I will devote my time and energies towards ameliorating the condition of the working classes, by sanitary and other measures ;—also, carefully watch over the appropriation of the corporate funds, avoiding, on the one hand, that niggardly parsimony that would cut down the poor man's wages, and, on the other hand, that wild and reckless extravagance which has so often cha , raeterised the acts of our public men, in dealing with the pub lic purse. I am an advocate for the Rating of the Docks, as I consider they ought to bear their proper share of the burdens of the Town. There are many other subjects of local and general interest which it would be tedious to dwell upon within the limits of an address, and as I shall have many opportunities of personally appearing before you between now and the day of Election, I shall be glad to enter more fully into my political and general opinions. In the meantime, I leave myself in your hands, and be assured that, if you do me the honour of electing me as your Representative, I shall use my best exe• tions in your behalf, and that of the town in general. I have the- honour to be, Gentlemen, your most obedient servant, JOHN WILSON. West Derby-street, Liverpool, 21st October, 1859. LIME-STREET WARD. THE COMMITTEE for CONDUCTING the ELECTION of JOHN WILSON, Esq., SIT DAILY at Mr. CHAS. CHALK'S, Star and Garter Hotel. Queen-sauare. inlorination may be obtame RICHARD HOLMES, Chairman JAMES EVANS, Vice-Chairman Oct. 24, 1859. W. T. MAY, Hon. Sec. TO THE ELECTORS OF ST. ANNE'S WARD GENTLEMEN, Ihave been asked by a most influential deputation. from your ward to allow myself to be placed in nomina tion for the seat in the Council ab..ut to be vacated by your respected member, Mr. Mellor. After consulting with friends upon whose judgment I can rely, I have determined on placing my services at your disposal. _ _ _ if you elect me, I shall go into the Council Chamber deter mined, so far as may lie in my power, to promote the interests not only of this ward, but of the town at large. By a judicious but considerable retrenchment of our bwough expenditure, I believe that the taxes levied upon your earn ings may be diminished, and the imminent risk of additional burdens aterted. To € business-like and proper management of our vast cor porate property it will be admitted that a knowledge of what it is, and where it is situated, is required. The production of the return ordered at the instance of Mr. Gladstone, three years ago, is still delayed, and ought at once to be placed in the hands of every member of the Council. Now that the dock property is separated by act of Parlia ment from the corporate estate, I can see no reason why it should not be subject to the same rates as all other property. On the 9th of November I shall, if returned by you, be called upon to take part in the election of eight gentlemen as alder men of the borough. I will on that occasion, while exercising my independent judgment as to who are the best fitted to receive so marked a distinction, endeavour to secure such a distribution of the aldermanic honours as to leave no doubt upon the mind of any one that "honour" has been given "to whom honour is due." I shall support the extension of education, as it alone can enable a man to fulfil the duties of his station honourably in whatever position of life he may be. . I shall endeavour, by advocating the establishment of public parks and playgrounds,. to diminish the temptations to intem perance and crime. In a few months the noble gift of our fellow-townsman, Mr. William Brown, is to be thrown open to the public, and will form a lasting ornament to your ward. I hope soon, too, to see a branch of the Liverpool Savings Bank established in this part of the town ' convinced that tke extension of the means of mental culture by the Free Library will be followed here, as elsewhere, by a marked moral and physical improvement. It will be my pleasure, if returned to the Council, to support some of the schemes of borough improvements which have been so ably advocqted by Mr. William Earle, especially so far as they relate to the approaches to our noble river, those being at present not only dangerous to the public, but a disgrace to the town. ' . I hope to have many other opportunities of addressing you, of which I shall take advantage to make .known- my views upon all subjects of public interest in reference to which you may wish an expression of my opinion. I will only add that if I can be of any service to my native town—the town in which my respeeted father ministered for nearly 20 years, and over which my" grandfather Presided as phia mn g .trntn upwnrcla of half a century ago-- it will be more than a recompense to me for any exertions I may be called upon to make in your behalf. I remain, gentlemen, yours very faithfully, CLARKE A SPINA LL. 3, Union-court, Castle-street, Liverpool. The Committee for conducting the ELECTION of CLARKE ASPINALL, Esq., sits daily at Mr. Martin's, 109, St. Anne street. S. FRAZER, Chairman. JABEZ JONES, Idon. Sec twfnol TO THE BURGESSES AND ELECTORS OF EVERTON AND KIRKDALE WARD. GENTLEMEN, AN influential deputation having waited on me to request I would allow myself to be nominated as a tatiidate for your Ward at the ensuing Municipal Election, I have with much pleasure acceded to your request. As a resident for eighteen years in your ward, I feel the strongest interest in its prosperity, as well as that of the town at large ; and should I be so fortunate as to be elected your Representative, you may rely on my best energies being devoted to your services. My religious and political principles being well known to you, I need not enlarge on those topics. There is only one other which suggests Itself to me, as one on which you may desire to know my sentiments : that is, the rating of the docks ; and on this question I have always entertained decided opinions, and can see no valid reason why they should not bear their fair share of local taxation. I have the honsur to remain, Gentlemen, Your faithful servant, CHAS. FREDK. CARNE. Exchange Alley North, Liverpool, 20th October, 1859. EVERTON AND KIRKDALE WARD.

BROTHER ELECTORS OF LIME-STREET WARD, PERMIT me to address a few more words to you previous to the important trial which will take place on Tuesday next. It may be that von will listen to the voice of reason, or it may be that you will remain stolid and indifferent as to your future welfare, and likewise of. that great constitutional body you profess to belong to. • I can assure you it was with pain and regret that I witnessed your duplicity and treachery on the Ist of November, 1856, (you— the forty-live I am alluding to) who voted for the Compton house Radical—one who professes to be a fellow-neighbour, and a fellow-citizen, and who takes as his motto, "Do unto others as you wish to be done by." Yet with impunity this same man can embark into so many branches of business and sell his goods (in many instances) under the market prices. What the quality of those articles are, it is not for me to say. I would ask you, fellow-ratepayers, what you think of any Representative carrying on the trade of a linen draper, milli ner, boot and shoe maker, perfumer, stationer—and last, not least, tea dealer. Is it fair? Is it just? Is it reasonable that one man should monopolise the different trades in this manner, to the great injury of those very fellow-tradesmen who returned him as their Representative. It is without exception the coolest piece of effrontery I ever met with on the part of any man, to ask his constituents to return him a second time, after intruding upon their different trades, to the loss of themselves and fami lies. What a beautiful thing consistency is, when we can meet with it I Let me earnestly implore of you, for the sake of your selves and families, (who are dependent upon you,) to awake from your slumbers, to shake off the effects of the narcotic which has been administered to you in such large dosing speeches, promises, pledges, and so forth. Believe no longer in such hallucinations; but be resolved no longer t' allow a man of James R. Jeffery's position to sell you again. He has indeed sold you (but not in the same way as Judas Iscariot was sold, who could not retrieve himself,) by the dodges of his display on the Ist day of November. 1856. It is not too late for you to repent of your egregious folly and your supineness. You have another olden opportunity afforded you of counter actiag the baneful influence you disseminated three years ago throughout Lime-street Ward, by not recording one single vot% for the mob orator. If you do, you will introduce Papacy into the length and breadth (not only of Lime-street Wird, but) of Liverpool, and thereby be the means of eventually de stroying the fabric of our noble and high-valued Constitution. Remember Lord Derby's advice to you, and take heed to his saying. In conclusion, my fellow tradesmen, be steadfast, unmoveable ; and consider that it was through the treachery of forty. five of your own body that you returned the frothy declaimer of Compton House. Let your energies be put in motion, and you may depend upon it that Mr. Wi son will be triumphantly returned, in the place of the interfering and obnoxious Mr. Jeffery. I am, Brother Electors, Your obedient Servant, THOMAS BANNER. Loudon-road, Oat. 26, 1859. latunitipal irettion TO THE ELECTORS OF NORTH TOXTETII WARD. GENTLEMEN, ju HAVE much pleasure in acceding to the wish of the Deputation presenting a Requisition from so many in ential members of your Ward, and beg to place my services at your disposal. Should it be your pleasure to elect me one of.your Represen tatives in the Town Council, on the Ist November, it will be my study to merit your confidence by a diligent attention to the onerous and responsible duties which wilt devolve upon me. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your most obedient Servant, J. G. LIVINGSTON. Mayfield, Wavertrce, 20th October, 1859. 302.1 TO THE MUNICIPAL ELECTORS OF SOUTH TOXTETH WARD. GENTLEMEN, MY Term of Office, as oue of your Representatives in the Town Council, will expire on the Ist November. Having had the honour of being twice elected by you, I have for the last six years zealously endeavoured to discharge the duties of the trust jou committed to MC in a faithful'and con scient:ous manner, by a regular attendance at the different committees on which I was placed, and in taking an active part in their proceedings. lam led to believe that my past conduct has received your approval, from the numerously and influentially signed requisition I have • now received, soliciting me to become for the third time a candidate to represent you. 'Under this impression, I cheerfuily comply with your wish; and should you be pleased to confer on me the renewed honour of re-electing, me, I can only promise that I shall give the same diligent attention to the .discharge of my duties, and that I shall be influenced alone by .a conscientious desire to act, as regards all matters that may come before the Council, to the best of my judgment, for the benefit of my constituents, and the good of the Borough generally.

SHOCKING DEATIL—On .Tuesday morning, about twa o'clock, James Linley, an engine-man, employed at th e mill of Messrs. Ellershaw, oil manufacturers, Heidi n g leF, near Leeds, met with a very shocking death. Shortly after the engine had commenced working, the de ceased took-a crowbar for the purpose of throwing a cran k I °, to the fly-wheel, and he accidentally fell betwe en t , wheel and a stone wall. He was instantaneously Arue!! by the wheel, and his body was most frightfully shar.. tered. The poor fellow was of course killed on the s p ot • TAXATION AND POPULATION.—In 1805 the cstonated population of the Austrian empire was retur ned a s t , l 39,411,309, and the public expenditure was £ 40,268,6 ,4 or an average of £1 Os. sd. per head.
