TO THE ELECTORS OF SOUTH TOXTETH
WARD.

GENTLEMEN,
In consequence of the retirement from the Council on the First
of November next of our present esteemed member, Mr. W. J.
HORSFALL, I have been requested by a numerous and highly
respectable portion of the Electors to offer myself as a CANDI-
DATE for your Ward.
It would have been in accordance with my own feelings had I
been allowed to remain in the pursuit of those duties which have
hitherto afforded me sufficient employment, and kept me aloof
from the prominency of official life.
In deference, however, to the judgment of others, I have con-
sented to be Nominated at the ensuing Election for South Tox-
teth Ward. My character for the last twenty-eight years has been
before you: this must be the test for the future.
I have only to add that, should you elect me as your Represen-
tative in the Council, I will endeavour to promote the interests of
all classes, and support such measures as I may deem beneficial
to the Town of Liverpool, of which Toxteth-park forms so impor-
tant a part.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your obedient servant,
JOHN FARN WORTH.

short a time as is consistent with safety, Dr. F., to distinguish
himself from non-qualified men, refers to his qualifications as

AND GENERAL CPMMERCIAL' ADVERTISER.

induces the Russian people to roll themselves for-
ward or backward as unreasoning waves—destroy-
ing or sparing their own property or that of others
without the indication of a sentiment except that
of blind submission to command. This is, in
reality, the dangerous character of Russian
aggression ; and it is peculiarly characteristic of
Asiatic combination. It takes no modulation
from the circumstances by which it is surrounded,
but Ours itself out and rolls along a broad, slow,
steady tide of all-engulphing destruction. Of
this dangerous feature of the Russian idiosyncracy
history affords many pregnant examples, and Dr.
P. in his narrative parallels some of these with
modern illustration.
He gives many pictures of individuals whose
connexion with recent events has made their
names familiar in the ear of Europe. Concerning
these, many of the sketches are graphic, and
nearly all of them are interesting. Among
various matters of less importance, the doctor
gives vent to an expression of the opinion enter-
, tamed by the Russians of the English soldiers.
This, he assures us, is by no means complimen-
tary to the latter. The English soldiers, he says,
are regarded by the Russians as clumsy and neg-
ligent —as lazy and presumptuous ; the English
officers as ignorant and indolent to a degree that
surpasses blief. At first he says the English
troops were regarded as the most formidable
opponents ; but, ever since the first encounter,
the Russian soldiers have ceased to reverence
thein, and now even call their courage in ques-
tion—scarcely esteeming them so formidable as
the Turks, and professing to regard them as infi-
nitely inferior to the French. This, it must be
remembered, is an enemy's painting, and conse-
quently must be taken cum gran sales; still it is
worth knowing. His pictures of life and man-
ners within the doomed city are less interesting
than lively. They wear the impress of truthful
sketches, but scarcely bear upon the subject
which is most interesting to an English reader.
One grand tableau we must extract as deeply sig-
nificant of the apathetic spirit in which the
Muscovite enters upon the work of fate. It is a
picture of Sebastopol about the time the Allies
effected their landing in the Crimea. The scene
is at night, and it is composed of the experiences
and reflections of the author in reference to

CORONER'S INQIIEST.—An inquest was held yesterday. be-
fore P. F. Curry, Esq., borough coroner, on the body of John
Cook, aged 36, a coach-wheel maker, residing in 22, Baptist-
street. The wife of the deceased stated that her husband
had complained of a pain in his heart and side for some time
prior to his death. He had been supplied with some " stuff',
by Mr. Wood, herb-doctor, who resides in Richmond-row.
The deceased was afflicted with a cough. He worked for the
last time on Wednesday last. On Thursday morning the
witness went to Mr. Wood's, and told him that the deceased
was much worse. He desired her to call in a medical man, but
requested her not to say anything about deceased having had
medicine from him. Witness called in Dr. Thomson, who came
and saw the " stuff," in the bottle, which was now produced, and
he sealed it up, and gave it to her again. Dr. Thomson gave him
a parish note for the Dispensary. She asked if the deceasedwas
dangerous ? and he replied, " Yes, very !" The doctor called
twice on Thursday, and on Friday, about one o'clock, he said
deceased might live two or three hours. He died
about three o'clock in the afternoon. On Wednesday
night the deceased was taken very ill with vomitting, and
threw up a great deal of blood. On Thursday and Thursday
night he threw up blood again.—Dr. Thomson stated that he
was called to see the deceased about noon on Thursday, and
found him throwing up blood. He died about three o'clock
on Friday. Witness wasunable to account for the cause of death.
He made a post mortem examination of the body since, and
found death to have resulted from disease of the heart from
natural causes. The disease of the heart was very extensive,
and other organs of the body were also diseased. It did not
appear from the evidence what the " stuff" as it was called,
which was contained in the bottle, consisted of; but it was
stated to contain no mineral substance. It was stated that the
mixture was that of an infusion of some herb with cayenne
pepper.—The coroner said the suspicion in this case arose
from the fact of the man being taken so alarmingly ill so soon
after taking the " stuff ;" but it did not appear there was any-
thing wrong in it. He was of opinion that many cures were
effected by the use of herbs when properly and scientifically
used. He saw it stated in one of the papers that the man had
" bolted," but he did not see why he should have done so.—
The jury returned a verdict of Died from disease of the
heart, brought on by natural causes,"

WARD.

GENTLEMEN,

The prospect of a'prolonged absence from England forbids me
again to ask, at your hands, a renewal of the trust which I have
now held uninterruptedly for a period of six years.
Enfeebled health obliges me to seek, (luring the ensuing winter,
a more genial climate. This alone induces me to decline the offer
you have so handsomely made of continuing me in the Represen-
tation of your Ward.
Although for a time absent from you, believe me I shall ever
feel a lively interest in all that concerns your welfare, and I shall
rejoice to hear that those institutions we have mutually supported
continue to flourish.

Permit me, in conclusion, to thank you for the extreme for-
bearance you have ever extenied to me in the discharge of my
public duties, and the liberal construction you have at all times
put upon my conduct. To many amongst you I must be allowed
further to tender my most grateful acknowledgments for the many
acts of personal kindness I have for years past experienced at
your hands. Trusting at some future time to be again amongst
you,
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your obliged and faithful
Servant, WM. J. HORSFALL.

DEATH OF SIR WILLIAM MOLESTVORTH.

INTELLIGENCE has just been received of the death (at noon
yesterday) of the Right Hon. Sir William Molesworth, Bart.
Her Majesty's Secretary of State for the Colonies. The right
hon. baronet had been ailing for some little time, but it was
only a week ago that the state of his health began to occasion
any anxiety to his friends. Dr. Ferguson, Dr. Elliotson, and
Mr. H. C. Johnson were in constant attendance upon him in
Eaton-place ; but their report was such as to leave little hope
of his recovery. His arduous duties at the Colonial-office, and
the anxiety of his mind during *e momentous period of his
official life, principally contributed to impair his health and
lead to his premature decease.
The late baronet, who was born in 1810, was son of Sir Are-
cott Ourry Molesworth, Bart. He represented Cornwall from
1832 to 1837, Leeds from 1837 to 1841, and was first returned
for Southwark in Sept. 1845. He was a Radical in politics,
and was ncted for having -edited the works of Hobbes. He
joined the Coalition Cabinet under the Earl of Aberdeen, as
First Commissioner of Works, an office which he continued to
hold under Lord Palmerston, and in July last was made Se-
cretary for the Colonies, on the dismissal of Lord John Russell.

A WORD too much spoils the best affairs : a moment

IT is a curious paradox; that when a man lies he

PRAISE and wine strengthen, provided they do not

BENEVOLENCE is the only treasure that is increased

THE world is a great book, of which they that stay

THERE is this paradox in pride ; it makes some
men ridiculous, and prevents others from becoming
so.—Colton.

LOVERS conceal their faults from one another, and
deceive themselves—friends confess their faults to one
another, and pardon them mutually. .
INSTRUCTION. —Wise men "are instructed by reason ;
men of less understanding by experience ; the most
ignorant by necessity.
ODD.—The difference between a Christian and a
cannibal is, that one enjoys himself and the other
enjoys other people.
A BUTCHER-BOY in New York says he has often
