GENTLEMEN, awing Term of Office, as one of your Representatives in the Town Council, will expire on the Ist November. aving 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 you committed to me in a faithful and con scientous manner, by a regular attendance at the different committees on which I was placed, and in taking an active part ix 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 hie to become for the third time a candidate to represent Toil. Under this impression, I cheerfully 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.

TO THE BURGESSES AND ELECTORS OF EVERTON AND KIRKDALE WARD., GENTLEMEN, N influential deputation having waited on me to request I would allow myself to be nominated as a Can 'date for your Ward at the ensuing Municipal Election, I have with much pleasure acceded to your request. As a resident for eivht.per, w 00... ••• ,---- ----- ~ = 4 , - , ~--- ectuuiscsi, 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 honour to remain, Gentlemen, Your faithful servant, CHAS. FRE DK. CARNE. Exchange Alley. North, Liverpool, 20th October, 1859. TO THE ELECTORS OF ABERCROMBY WARD. GENTLEMEN, THE Period for which I was elected a Councillor, for your Ward will shortly expire, and I should not have presumed to offer myself again to your notice, had I not been solicited to do so by a deputation from a. highly-respectable body of Electors. I may be excused being flattered by this compliment having been paid to me, and I accede to their wishes with pleasure. The kindness of my brother townsmen has been the cause of bringing me so frequently before the public, that my opinions are sufficiently well known, without its being necessary for me to enter into any explanation respect ing them on the present occasion. - I have always been a strenuous advocate for a Comprehensive Improvement of the Borough, so that its thoroughfares may be rendered more convenient for the business transactions of the public, and its dwellings more comfortable and healthy for the Labouring Classes, whose occupations compel them to reside within'its boundary. Above all other improvements, I should like to see such approaches made to our Piers and Landing-stages as would render them safe and commodious to the public, and an ornament to our existing dock works. At present they are in a state dangerous to all pedestrians, and a disgrace to our noble port. It is high time that the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board and the Town Council should take this matter into their serious consideration, with the view of effecting this loudly-called-for improvement. - The Mersey Docks and Harbour Board have proposed a plan for facilitating the transit of merchandise and cattle across the river, and a most judicious step it is ; but why has not some thought been bestowed on the convenience and safety of millions of human beings who cross the Mersey in the course of the year? The facility given to the transit of merchandise and cattle will, of course, increase the danger and difficulties of which the public so justly . complain. I defy the art of man to devise any plan for forming a really good and unobjectionable approach to the river, without the sacrifice of George's Dock Basin. The scheme is chiefly opposed, I believe, by the shipowners, under the erroneous impression that it would be injurious to the docking of their vessels. I use the term " erroneous " because I have high authority for stating that the dreaded injury is imaginary, rather than real. Let those eminent engineers, the Messrs. Hartley, who have shown such wonderful talent and ingenuity in the construction of our dock works, be directed to design a plan upon the principle I have suggested, and I will answer for it that every difficulty will vanish, excepting that, perhaps, of providing the funds to meet the expenditure; but I should be sorry to think that, with our boasted commercial spirit and enterprise, even this difficulty may not be overcome. If the Electors do me the honour of sending me again into the Council Chamber as their Representative, I shall support, to the utmost of my power, as I have ever done, those measures which may appear to me best calculated to promote the welfare and happiness of the vast and busy emnmunity in which we live.—l am, with much respect, Gentlemen, your faithful humble Servant, WILLIAM EARLE. Abercromby-square, Eth October, 1859. TO THE BURGESSES OF VAUXHALL WARD. GENTLEMEN, AVING 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 ; andl have endeavoured to promote and further even useful measure cat 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 b self-evident. In resigning my trnstinto your hands, I can with confidence refer to my past conduct as a proof that I have not been influenced by any p irty 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 prowl po s iti on which I have heretofore held, I will endeavour steadf as tl y to pursue that course of procedure which has given so much satisfaction to you, and whick, by your desire, I wish fully to maintain, and carry out judiciously all the necessary requirements of the ratepayers.

Perhaps I may be allowed to add, without incurring the charge of presumption, that even y•mr 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 of your represen tatives. The Town Dues question has been settled, if not exactly as we could have 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 i some of our envious opponents in the neigh bouring towns, s 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 confor 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 fait 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 Corpdrate arid Dock Estates has been effected, the interests of the two are, and must ever be, set interwoven, that a member of the Town Council, anxious to do his duty, will always have to keep a watchful eye on the proceedings of the Dock Board; and 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. •And 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 eommunity very largely in terested in its welfare. Being firmly convinced, after much 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 Heeu OelS, 1.4a444 X ...1.•,11 ,osco tax. uu we au, 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 serstiments or intentions will be deemed neces sary from me in this address. At your Ward Meetings, I shall be happy to afford any other explanation which may be required. For the present, therefore, I will only say that what you hive found me in the past, you will, if you think fit to renew my trusteeship, find me in the future,—a zealtus 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 honourio be, gentlemen; yours, very respectfully, JAS..

GENTLEMEN, have been waited upon by an influential deputation of your body with a requisition, most numerously signed, inviting me to become a CANDIDATE for the Representatib. of your Ward in the Town Council, at the ensuing Municipal Election. The clearly expressed opinion of so large a number of the Electors, relieves me of any diffidence I might otherwise V. tve felt in assuming such a responsible position ; I therefore cheerfully comply with the request, and at once place myself in your hands. Should it be your pleasure to elect me as one of our Represen tatives, my best efforts shall be directed to the promotion of every measure, having fer its object the weifare of the Ward and the good of the community at large.

GENTLEMEN, ARequisition, numerously signed, has b een p resen t e d to me, inviting me to allow myself to be nominated as a CANDIDATE to represent your interests in the Town Council. I feel deeply sensible of the honour, and most cheerfully accede 'to' that request, considering it both a duty and a pnv , 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 your representat i ve, 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 employfd for the public good. Keeping 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.

Chapel-street, Liverpool, Sept. 30, 1859. THE MORTARA ABDUCTION. All the efforts of Sir Moses Montefiore and the deputies of the British Jews having proved ineffectual in obtaining the restoration of the child Mortara to its parents, a committee of gentlemen in the city felt that some protest was demanded on behalf of the British Christians, and the following protest having been privately circulated, has been most extensively signed, and a copy of it has been forwarded to' the French •,,, ambassador " Whereas a Jewish child, Edgar Mortara, son of Momolo Mortara, late of Bologna, in Italy, was on the 24th of June,. 1858, forcibly seized and taken from his parents, by order of the Cardinal Viale Prela, Arch bishop of Bologna and Legate of Pope Pius IX. And whereas the ground of the said seizure was, that the said child, Edgar Mortara, had been secretly baptised by a Roman Catholic maid-servant six years previ ously, being then of the age of twelve months. And whereas the said child was, by order of the said car., dinal legate, conveyed by night, under an escort of gen darmes, to the Convent of San Pietro in Vincoli, at Rome, and is there detained contrary to the wish, and notwithstanding the protestations of his parents ; and whereas the Government of France has invain urged the court of Rome to restore the said child to his patents; and whereas Sir Moses Montefiore, Bart., at the re quest of the deputies of the British Jews, made on the 22nd of December, 1858, went to Rome, in their names to present a memorial to the Pope, signed by the whole of the said deputies, asking for the liberation of the said child, Edgar Mortara ; and whereas the Pope refused even to see Sir Moses Montefiore ; and Cardinal. Antonelli, Minister of State, has declared to Sir Moses Montefiore ,that the- Roman Government will not release' the child; and whereas it is a dishonour ' to Christianity in the eyes of the Jews among all nations that the sei zure and detention of the said child, Edgar Mortara, should be supposed to be consistent ,Iyith, the princi ples of the Christian religionl—Now, we, .the under signed British Christians, do hereby protest and declare that the proceedings of the Pope of Rome in taking away the Jewish child, Edgar Mortara, from his parents, and educating him, contrary to his, parents' will, in the Roman Catholic faith, are repulsive to the instincts , of humanity, and in violation of parental rights and authority, as recognised in the laws and usages of all civilised nations ; and, above all, in direct opposition to the spirit and precepts of the. Christian religion. The subscription for the memorial of thelate Alexander von Humboldt has now reached the sum of 70,000 thalers (X 10,500), and no doubt is entertained that a much larger sum will be fortheoming. • THE 84TH REGIMENT.—On Wednesday, the Mayor and Corporation, and the Master Cutler and Cutler's Company of Sheffield, presented addresses to Colonel Lightfoot and the officers and soldiers of the 84th Regi ment, recently returned from India. The soldiers were drawn up on, three sides of a square to receive the ad dresses ; two flags captured in India being placed in front of the square. Colonel Lightfoot, in the course of his reply, paid the men a very high compliment. They had, he said, done their duty admirably durin g +l,O —1..10 of trap vurziptligu, wnicn was a very severe one, during twenty-eight months, in one of the most, terrible climates in the - World ; they went through - an amount of service which it was beyond his power to describe, some times without shoes to thei r feet or clothes to their backs, and yet without a single murmur, their only anxiety being to come across their en em y. (L ou d cheers.) At the termination of the proceedings, the men gave three cheers. for the Mayor, the Master Cutler, and Corporations. MURDER OF A WOMAN BY HER HUSBAND.—Another of those shocking tragedies which have of late dis graced the southern division of Staffordshire was enacted in the town of Wednesbury on Tuesday night, the actor being a man named Benjamin Owen, land lord of the Cottage Spring publichouse, and the victim Mary Ann Owen, his wife. Owen is about forty-six years of age, and had previously borne a fair character as a peaceable, welt:disposed man. His wife was a few 3 ears younger. Owen had been to the neighbouring town of Walsall that day, and returned somewhat intoxicated ; and having lost a consider able sum of money. These circumstances, especially the latter, created irritation in the poor woman's mind, tinctured by jealousy. About nine at night, following an altercation, Owen pushed his wife out of doors, and, going after her, commenced beating and kicking he r most savagely until she dropped insensible. The neighbours sent for the police, and a medical practitioner was also promptly in attendance; but the unfortunate woman was beyond the reach of human aid. The murderer was immediately taken into custody and con veyed to the lockup. He expresses deep concern for , what he has done, and appears to labour under great depression of spirits. The poor woman has left one child, a little girl seven years of age. ANOTHER ESTIMATE OF MR. BRIGHT'S EULOGIES ON THE UNITED STATES.—We have been favoured, says the Manchester Guardian, with the following extract from a private letter written by a very intelligent man, who, after a residence of three years in the Western States of America, has returned with very decided opinions on the climate and the people :—" Do you personally know anything of Mr. Bright ? Scraps of his speeches, laudatory of America, have found their way into the American papers. Of course he thinks and means what he says. Perhaps he does not think better of the Americans than I did before going there. But there are many things that a man can have no idea of until they come within the range of his own experience. America is one of those things : it has no parallel, can find no point of comparison, in the Mind of an Englishman —even though he may be as familiar with the mind and manners of many people in Europe as he is with those of his native town, where he has spent his years from infancy to manhood. Depend upon it, no ' traveller ' who has ever passed a few months in America, returns much the wiser or better informed about the people, than if he had stayed at home. If he has eyes, he cannot fail to observe the deteriorated physique of the people, their uncouth demeanour, i and many of their offensive habits. But not the heart of the people—not even their politics, or the practical working of their political institutious—can he know anything about. He must reside among them, be one of them, as far as he can. Were Mr. Bright to go through the same discipline as I have, I cannot doubt that his views and feelings would undergo a similar change. The working classes in the United States are not only worse paid and worse fed, but they are also more heavily taxed, than in England. This may be new to you, as no doubt it would be to Mr. Bright; but I can assure you that it is both literally and substantially true. * * Mr. Bright would come to the conclusion, after residing among the people and knowing them, that England has nothing to learn from e America ; nothing to imitate, but much to avoid. He would for ever drop any allusion l e America as as abating one n rule, t he would object of political emulation. principle," h aWr e c r iiiti a c ne t en prerogative find degr eethatofhis that there • is no 'to teach the nations how to live;' ent worthy of her imitation; and other state or government in that the many abuses of our government Church and England anti h pa aa th n y masses ; and the perfection of the legislative and execue State must find their own remedy—the elevation of thy moans —in the fuller development of British tivc branches of our constitution, must find their onl otot loosltig OCTOBER 21: 1859 MANCHESTER BANKRUPTCY COURT. (Before Mr. Commissioner Jemmett.) "ZbSUSPENSION OF DEMETRIADI'S CERTIFICATE. • Re DEMETRIUS PIETRO DEMETRIADI, MERCHANT , MANCHESTER. Wednesday wss appointed for the Commissioner's judgment on the question of certificate. —Mr. Worthington appeared for the assignees and creditors, and Mr. Cobbett for the bankrupt.----Tho Commissioner said : . • " This bankrupt commenced business in Manchester in the year 1854, as the buying partner in a mercantile firm at Constantinople, consisting of himsolf, his father, a brother, and a brother-in-law. His duty was limited to making purchases of goods in Man chester for sale in Constantinople, and he was to debit the firm with the invoiced prices of the goods,. adding his commission, shipping charges, and interest at six per cent. The business was thus conducted until the year 18.56, when the bankrupt became acquainted with a person named James Hiller, a commission agent in Manchester, and from that period he commenced a series of accommodation bills with him and other per sons, amounting in 1858, by his own confession, to £36,897. During the last six months of that year, he was-engaged in various unsuccessful schemes, until he became utterly insolvent. On the 4th of January last he was adjudged a bankrupt ; and, having now passed his last examination, applies for his certificate, the grant ing of which is opposed by his assignees. It is unneces sary for me to go through the details of the many exa minations which have taken place in this bankruptcy ; it will be sufficient to point out the specific charges of fraud brought against the bankrupt by the assignees and separate creditors. The charges brought by the assignees are reckless trading, excess of accom modation bills, buying goods on credit, and on pretence of exportation, and selling them immediately (through' the agency of Hiller) at reduced prices, for the p u rpose of raising money ; tampering with accounts, in order to deceive his creditors ; concealing 'from the know ledge of his creditors, when called .together, :several good bills, which were subsequently paid, to th e amount of £1,856, and altering and destroying other bills on which his father-in-law would have been liable, to the amount of £2,600 ; all these t ra nsactions, took place within six months• of the ba n k ru ptcy, an' have been proved by oral and documentary evidence" beyond dispute. The separate creditors who oppose the certificate, and have given evidence against the bankrupt , are Mr. Standring, Mr. Woodhouse, and Mr. Harwood. Mr. Standring has stated that the first lot of goods b, e ' sold to the bankrupt consisted of 1,000 pieces at 3s. 4d. per piece, which were immediately sent by the bankrupt' i to Hiller, and sold by him at 2s. 11d. per piece; and that on the 14th December, 1858, he 501d.400 pieces a; ss. ' which the next day were sent to Hiller, and 'sold by him at 4s. 4d. per piece. Mr. Woodhouse stated that on the 23rd of November the bankrupt purchase d of him 403 pieces of red prints at Bs. 9d. per piece , which were re-sold by Hiller, at 7s. per piece ; and o a the 25th of November he bought 388 pieces of pad; ground prints at 7s. 6d. per pi ece , w hi c h were r e-sola by Hiller at 6s. 4d. per piece. Mr. Harwood stated that he sold to the bankrupt a quantity of satteens at I: `same yard, which wer e r e so ld on th e ' sae day to Miniati and Co. at 61d. per yard. And in addition to these specific statements, is the evidence given by Cooper (one of the bankrupt's clerks), that goods we re were purchased, some a d a y or t wo a ft er , th a t th e y constantly sent :to Hiller, some on the same day the , ' generally sent between seven .and nine in the evening , and were ordered not to be sent in the day time. Thus there can be no doubt as to the misconduct of the,baak" • rupt. He has been guilty of many frauds against the mercantile community, and is deserving of severe pow ishment ; and the only question is, what the pu ll " ishment ought to be. The assignees and creditors have contended for an absolute refusal Al the certificate, without protection. I have taken' time,„"" consider the matter, and after much thought, I rein of the opinion I have ever held, that' under: the pr°"" sions of the present bankrupt law, a total refusal, without,_ protection, is too severe a punishment' for 'mercanti le delinquencies of this kind: I believe the effect of such - a punishment is scarmly'understood or felt by those rh o . are principally interested in the' maintenance of this Pt; of the law. I will, therefore, take, tile pregent'opp - ortulawk co , of stating my views on the subject. Under the pres s law, as soon as a certificate is either refused or sns" pro ved pended without protection, every creditor who has plc , a debt to the amount of £lO, becomes instanter a judg ment creditor, with power to issue immediate execu tion, and without any preliminary proceeding, withou t , notice, without trial, and without a verdict, may cas t the bankrupt into prison, whence he cannot be ai s ; charged within the space of one whole year, col t ivere under special circumstances, byorder of the court, If is the difference between a suspension for a toga ee, rt t 3 h i e ana a total refusal or tne certificate is very great ; e duringcase of a suspension the time is limited by the sentol e of the court, which the creditor is to exel: c t i b e . his power over his debtor ; but not so where refusal is absolute, for in that case there is no limi t of time. A creditor may seize his debtor at any mon° and at any period of his life, and all the credit e r 6 „, in succession may do so ; and whatever may be the dif position of the bankrupt, he can never apply hin ase d to any mode of gaining a livelihood for himself, a n ; perhaps, for a family, without the daily chance of s ucicle ot arrest and imprisonment, the effect of which is 11 ,. 0 uufrequently a sentence of perpetual b an i s hment ft`' ed the country. This, I think, wh o are the rare positions, qualities, and circumstances of those ", are subject to the operation of the bankrupt l a r e is too severe a punishment, and ought to undergo .ou",, i modification. In reverting, however, to the case 1 1 ° : , before me, I have no hesitation in declaring that ty a' bankrupt has • been guilty of all the offences cha l q, e g against him ; and I feel bound, in j us ti ce t o the tract' re community, and particularly to those cr e ditors who sufferers by his conduct, to pass a sentence which lll3O reason to believe will, ere long, b e th e severes t senten c e which the court will have pow er t o i n fli c t, v i z ., that ,he bankrupt's certificate be suspended for the space ofe years, and then to be of th e thi r d c l ass , an d I shall ref protection in the meanwhile, thereby leavin g the !Aviv" • for that period in the hands of his creditors. jab DEATH FROM PASSION.—On Tue s day mornin....P,t er , Yeudall, aged 58 years, the toll collector at b ige" - Hallam, was taking toll for 'some wild beast ear 3s4 o . o t and having a dispute with one of the drivers, b e " g it into a violent passion.
