I n doing so I cannot but take the opportunity of thanking you for the .con fidence you have pl ace d i n me f or t h e last six years; the re collection of which will stimulate me to renewed exertions in order to maintain your good opinion. When I entered the Council I determined to act indepen dently of all parties, and to judge every subject by its own merits. I have endeavoured to carry out that resolution honestly and faithfully. Belieiing, as I do, that it is our duty, not only to promote the trade and commerce of the port, but also to attend to the improvement of the social condition of our fellow-townsmen, I have cordially supported those efforts which have been made to place the means of knowledge within the reach of all classes by the establishment of a Free Library, the extension of which I hope to see productive of great benefit. I shall support all measures calculated to promote the health and comfort of the poorer classes of the community, believing that the neglect of so clear a duty would entail dis tress and misery upon all, from the lowest to the highest. I have reason to hope that means for reviving the trade in ship-building will very soon be found. The importance of such, in connexion with our general trade, is much greater than may at first sight appear; and no exertion shall be wanting on my part to promote this object. Should you, gentlemen, think me worthy of your renewed confidence, it will be my, desire to act in such a manner as not to forfeit tbe hthoenoguorodtooprinewioanul.o, Gentlemen, your obedient f any among you.

GENTLEMEN,—I feel deeply gratified for the highly re spectable and numerously signed Requisition which you have done me the honour to present. in terms so very flattering, that I have no hesitation in acceding to your request. I therefore place myself in your hands, and if re-elected will, to the best of my ability, faithfully attend to your in terests in the Town Council. I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, Your obliged and faithful servant, WALTER P. JEFFREYS. Price-street, October 22d, 1853. TO THE ELECTORS OF GT. GEORGE WAFtD. . GENTLEMEN, —Having received a requisition most numer ously and influentially signed, requesting me to allow myself to be put in nomination on Ist November, as a CANDIDATE to represent your ward in the Town Council, I at once comply with your request. and place my services at your disposal. I cannot feel otherwise than highly flattered by the unsought for and unexpected compliment you have been pleased to pay me. Should I have the honour to be elected, it will be my desire to give my best attention to the general interest of the Town, especially to 'those improvements which are at present occupy. ing much of the rublic mind; and more particularly those connected with your Ward, having, at the same 'time, a due regard to economical expenditure of the Corporate Funds for such purpose. I am, Gentlemen, your obedient Servant, ALEXANDER SHAND. Elm Cottsoe. Toxteth-nark. Oct. 22.1853. TO THE BURGESSES OF LIME-STREET WARD. GEXTLRMEN,—I accept the invitation, which I have bad the honour to receive from a numerous and influential body of the Electors of the Ward, to become a Candidate at the approaching Election, for a seat in the Town Connell, as one of yeur Representatives. . _ The subject which at this period more particularly engages - the attention of the Council :and the Inhabitants of the Borough, is, the Improvements of the Town. I believe that no part of the community is more interested in 'this question than yourselves; not only from the central position of your Ward, but on account of its possessing so many places of public resort, viz.:-the Theatres, the Concert Hall, St. John's Market, the Railway Station, and St. George's Hall. To this subject your Representatives have given their best attention, and have supported those Improvemehts, which, inttheir opinion, are first called for, and which will be em bodied in an application to Parliament in the ensuing Session. take this opportunity of returning my sincere thanks for the kindness and courtesy which 'I have received from you during the twelve years I hat e been honoured with your con fidence.—l remain, Gentlemen, your obedient Servant, JOHN B. LLOYD. Exchange Alley, 20th October, 1853. TO THE MUNICIPAL ELECTORS OF VAUXHALL WARD. GENTLEMEN,—The term for which you elected me as one of your Representatives will shortly expire. A Deputation of Gentlemen Electors of your'Ward having waited upon me, and presented a Requisition, numerously and respectably signed by parties of all shades of opinion, have no hesitation in tendering my best exertions for your acceptance. Ifeel less difficulty in now coming forward as a Candidate, for, since I have had the honour to represent you, I have the satisfaction to know my conduct in the Council has met with the-uniform approbation of the Ward. Three years ago you elected me on two distinct principles, whieb, I need hardly say, were -quite in accordance with my own, namely, the entire absence of politics in local affairs, and strict economy in the management of the Corporate Purse, with a due regarl to the good old town's-various re quirements and upholding her interests. I think it will be found I have kept these principles con -stantly in view; and I believe there is not an elector who will say that I forgot the interests of-the Ward in support of any party, Political or religious, in the Council. I have-uniformly voted against the increase of official salaries when I have considered them well paid ; and, whenever public money was to be exvended. I have looked carefully how it was to be most beneficially and economically spent, having a deep sympathy for the difficulties and privations local taxation entail on the industrious ratepayers. Having, from . my youngest days, had my interest bound up in the prosperity of your Ward, it itapparent thatwhat is injurious to you must be so to me, and that we must be equally benefited by its improvement. Finally, the principles on which you 'first elected me.are unchanged. If you should again do me that honour, I hope that the experience I have had in the Council duties will en able me more efficiently to do justiceto the trust reposed in me I remain, Gentlemen, your faithful servant, Shaw-street, 4th October, 1853.

There is hardly an additional gain that has served to swell the note of triumph raised by these Manchester politicians, which may not be clearly traced to causes over which human wisdom or foresight could have had no control. If Free- trade promoted emigration, it was not on account of the blessings which it produced, but directly the reverse, for the miseries which it occasioned com pelled hundreds and thousands to forsake the land of their birth, an order to seek in other countries a home and subsistence which were denied them in this. The census of 1851 tells the melancholy tale of our rural villages almost depo pulated, and most of our country towns show ing a diminution of numbers, while the only evidence of increase is in the seats of manufac tures and the shipping ports, to Whi©h the peasan try had been driven as a last resource. If the phase of internal affairs was a revival of manufacturing industry, it was owing to the increased emigration, and the demands of our distant colorists, stimu lated by the extraordinary discoveries of gold, 'to which Free-trade contributed nothing. All that our modern policy can claim credit for is the impetus which has been given to our foreign trade, and when this has been examined with an impar tial eye, the doubt may fairly be raked whether it is not ,a source rather of loss than of gain. The first step which was taken was to • discou rage the raising of , oar food on our own broad acres, by admitting to ow markets the produce which contributed nothing to our Revenue, and did not even give us the .benefit of exchanging one pro duct for another, as .every increase of importation has led to a decrease of exportation 1n 'the same direction. The consequence was a depreciation of agricultural property, by far the most important interest in the Kingdom, and such a ,discounage ment to the cultivatiai-of wheat, that now,:after only a few years' experience, we are dependent for the greater proportion of the most important .article for our subsistence upon the surplus pro ductions of other countries. This is an evil of such magnitude, that a quarrel between Turkerand Russia has augmented .the price of bread beyond , -the average during the lunch maligned times ,of , protection, and so all the dream of cheapness :in which the Manckester orators so fondly indulged has proved a delusion. But this is by no means the extent of the eve, for in dealing with foreigners we have co oppose the principle of common honesty, which was once the peculiar characteristic of English trading, to the crag and fraud which appear inseparable from the dealings of our new foreign customers. This is particularly the case in the corn trade from the ports on the Black Sea, where it is a common practice to commit wholesale frauds by having bills of lading signed in blank, and transmitted to England with bills drawn against these imaginary shipments ; and should merchants here be weak enough to accept on the faith of such securities, they afterwards find large discrepancies between the actual and the alleged quantities, and may seek for a remedy in vain. Last week we called attention to the risk in curred by British merchants in shipping by foreign vessels, owing to the difference between our laws and those of other nations, and the difficulty, if not impossibility, of obtaining redress for the grossest injustice. This is one of the evils spring ing out of the repeal of the Navigation Laws, and can only be met by merchants refusing to employ vessels owned by foreigners, notwithstanding the apparent temptation of lower rates of freight. The trade in foreign fruit is another source of dishonest practices, wherever they can be at tempted, through the ill-deserved confidence of British merchants. An instance of this kind was brought before the Liverpool Court of Passage, on Tuesday last, which shows, at the lead, the animus t the plaintiff. We have erred to this case, in the I that it may lead to more caution in futui With such instan aey form )nt a small prof we may well question whether we have not lost instead of gained by all that Free Trade has ac complished. Our manufacturers set the example honesty in t leir -la 1 devil's dust and paste fo: Led the prim lients their instructions THE Oper turing towns continue out on strike, and, if we may judge from their speeches and resolutions at public meetings, appear determined to persevere in their issue, must result in severe loss and suffering to themselves. It was hoped that these men would le voice of reason, and that, warned by the failure of so many previous attempts, they would have paused before all chance of reconciliE that passion has taken the place of judgment, and that the demand for the ten per cent. is to be per sisted in at all hazards, or, at least, so long as they can obtain from others the means of bare subsist ence—a difficulty which is all the greater, owing to the high price of bread and other nece and the near approach of winter, when the cost of living will be enhanced by the dearness of fuel. The movement, however, acquired a new impetus a few days since, by the announcement that sub- stantial aid had been received from an unexpected quarter. At a meeting of the discontented, the Chairman acknowledged the receipt of a cheque for no less than Five Hundred Pounds from Sir JOHN TYRELL, M.P. for North Essex. It now appears that the turn-outs have been hoaxed, the cheque being a fabrication. It would not, however, have been difficult to comprehend the peculiar train of reason which might have prompted such an act. Sir JOHN TYRELL is a land-owner, in favour of Protection, and interested in the prosperity of Agriculture, as a source of national wealth. He views the master manufacturers as the enemies of his order,—the men who helped to carry Free-trade--to sere PVVT. hetrased to ruin the `ppservative who had elevated him to power,—and the men whose enormous wealth, wrung from the labours ALDERMAN. ELECTION OF A RADICAL caucus meeting took place on Saturday, at the Clarendon-rooms, with the view of choosing a candi date for the seat rendered vacant by the death of Alderman Holmes. Mr. Robertson Gladstone was in the chair; and amongst those present were Messrs. Hugh Hornby, George Holt, Picton, Bradley, Fleming, Thomson, Langs. dale, Godfrey, and Beckwith, and Messrs.

We may, however, state that the representafre.s of the Great Powers , are still exerting themselves to bring the affair to an amicable adjustment; and it is believed, by those best informed on the subject, that they grill be sue cessful, notwithstanding the vigorous demonstra tions of warlike intentions. It is said that Austria and Prussia have assumed a tone of strict neutrality, which may have the Act of promoting peace.

In the opposition which has been got up in Aber tromby Ward to tie re-election of Mr. R. C. GARDITER, the conduct of Mr. ROBERTSON GLA.DSTONE is in no way defensible. The latter was himself elected from the belief that he would prove a useful man in the Coun cil, and he has now the presumption to dictate to the electors as to their choice of a colleague. There are few men better qualified for a seat in the Town Council than Mr. GARDNER, and we ,cannot halieve that the electors will 1 1,c so forgetful of their own interests as to reject him for the young gentleman nominated by Mr. GLAD aro-Nis.

A WARNING.—A labourer, named Otway, of Harptree North Somerset, left his home on Sunday week to go to his work, which was at a distance. Some time afterwards he was found lying in a corn-field with his clothes in flames, and his flesh was so burnt that he never recovered. Be fore he died, he stated that he had called at a cider-shop, drunk freely, and then lain down to sleep with a lighted pipe. This had set his clothes on fire, and was the cause of his miserable death. EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE. A gentleman, named William Rigby, residing with his friends at 130, Falkner street, committed suicide on Thursday last, by taking a quantity of sulphuric acid. He had been for some years past in a very desponding state of mind, and was of very intemperate habits. He had, however, latterly improved, but on the night of the 13th instant his gold watch was stolen from him while in liquor, by a party of prostitutes and artillerymen. The case was brought before the magistrates some time since, and the publicity of the affair seems to have driven him back to his former de sponding state, and he had been drinking to excess since the occurrence. His friends endeavoured to calm him as much as possible, and on Saturday last he left home and did not return until Monday, when he was again in a state of inebriation, and was put to bed, where he re mained until the Wednesday, when he appeared altogther much better. On Wednesday night be again retired to rest, and on Thursday morning he relapsed to his former bad state, imagining that some person was in the house for the purpose of carrying him away in a car and locking him up. In the course of the afternoon the inmates were alarmed by cries of " John, John," and met the de ceased running down-stairs, with his hands across his stomach, having on only his shirt. He went into the parlour and threw himself on the sofa, still keeping his hand in the same position. The impression was that he had been seized with cholera, and Dr. Patterson was sent for, but did not do him any good. Dr. Bickersteth and his son were then called in, and remained with him till nine o'clock the same evening, when he expired. It was concluded that he had taken sulphuric acid, and a bottle containing some of that liquid was found upon the mantle piece of his bedroom. CALIFORNIAN NOMENCLATURE. — Some of our people in the interior have a most extraordinary taste in nomen clature.
