TO THE ELECTORS OF NORTH TOXTETH
WARD.
.1

GENTLEMEN,
Three years ago you did me the honour to elect me, by a large
majority, one of your Representatives in the Town Council.
Having again received a flattering and influential Requisition,
most numerously signed by Gentlemen of all shades of politics,
to allow myself to be nominated at the ensuing Election, I place
myself unreservedly at your disposal.
Should I be elected, I can only assure von that my best exer-
tions shall be used to promote the interest of your Ward, and the
general prosperity of this great Commercial Town.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your most obedient
Servant, HILTON HALHEAD.
Wellington Lodge, Wavertree, October 11, 1855.

TO THE ELECTORS OF EXCHANGE WARD.
GENTLEMEN,
You have been pleased to honour me with a Requisition, signed
by 429 Electors of Exchange Ward, requesting me to continue my
services in the Town Council as one of your Representatives.
The unprecedented number of signatures attached to this Invi-
tation is most gratifying, and my obligations are increased when
I consider that amongst them are the names of Gentlemen repre-
senting all shades of party.
I at once accept the call made upon me, and offer myself as a
Candidate for re-election.
My past public conduct is I hope a guarantee that I will exert
myself to uphold the rights of all classes of my fellow-townsmen,
and promote the best interests of the " good old town."
I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, your obliged and
humble servant, JAMES TYREE.

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.
HORSTALL, 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 defeiencez 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 FARNWORTH.
Woolton-hill, Oct. 12, 1855.

TO THE ELECTORS OF WEST DERBY
WARD.
GENTLEMEN,
Having received a Requisition, inviting me to come forward as
a CANDIDATE for your Suffrages at the approaching Municipal
Election, signed by so large and respectable a portion of your
body as to indicate a very general desire that I should do so, I
have consented to serve if it is your pleasure to confer upon me
the honour of being one of your Representatives in the Town
Council. _ _ _

I do not seek that honour, and have no wish to undertake the
duties it would impose on me ; but I feel that I should be want-
ing in the discharge of my duty as a Citizen if I declined, when
called upon, to yield some portion of my time and attention to
our common local interests. _ . •

~... ~.........,.. ....“............ ___...
Believing that nothing can be more detrimental to our Munici•
pal welfare than the introduction of Party Politics into the
Council Chamber, and the transaction of its business, I shall, if
elected by you, resist all tendencies of that nature, from what-
ever quarter they may proceed ; and, holding myself perfectly
free, endeavour faithfully and conscientiously to promote the
best interests of the town.

I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your obedient Servatit,
Liverpool, Oct. 24, 1855. JOHN AIKIN.

SINGULAR RoßßEßY.—Joseph Vickstead was charged yes-
terday at the Police-court with having stolen a five pound
note, a sovereign, and half a sovereign, from Mrs. Elizabeth
Knaggs, of Great Crosshall-street, on the morning of Thurs-
day last. The prisoner had been employed as an assistant-
clerk, and on the morning in question Mrs. Knaggs received
the money from her husband, and held it in her hand; while
doing so, she was seized with a fit of a kind she is subject to,
and which, for the time, deprives her of consciousness. While
she was thus rendered helpless, the prisoner took the money
out of her hand, and decamped with it. On Saturday, he was
taken into custody. When asked what he had to say, he de-
clared that he was not in his senses at the time, as he had
been drinking. He was remanded for a week.
