TO THE ELECTORS

OF
EAST WORCESTERSHIRE.

ENTI.FIIF.N,
AT the request of n large number of Comer
srvAtive Electors, I venture to offer myself as a
C'andidate for the distinguished honor of representing
you in the next Parliament; and it being understood
that Mr. Vernon does not intend to offer himself for re.
election, it tray be that moderate men even of opposite
politics may be willing—as it can be done without desert-
ing an ott niember—to restore to the Conservative party
same in 11,,. representation of your Division. to which.
(crag their numbers and importance, they arc fairly
entitled.

During the intervals of laborious professi,n it has
been a i.leasure to rue to take part in the public business
of a county with which my family have been long con-
nected, and. should you honour me with your confidence,
you may net assured that. without neglecting duties of
inoire general and national importimee, I shall both in
and out of Parliament pay a close and constant attention
t., your various heal interests.

anronpooe I to the Dioestablishment and Disendowo
meet of the Chnrch in Ire/and, which I think would
embitter rather then allay religious animooitira in that
country, and almost certainly lead in the result to the
like se'verrinc, ef the Church from the State. and area-
laritation of Cl.urch p.orfrty in the rest of the United
Kingdom. At the same time lam far from being Ratio-
ned with the present state of that branch of the Church,
lint if the iirtestion of its Reform can even now he with-
drawn from the arena of party polities, into which an.
happily it has been forced by Mr. Gladstone, I shall not
despair of a Rotation being found which will respect the
riglito and just snaceptildiitiell of Christians of all deno-
minations. At all event., I shall. if in Parliament, do
everything in my power, as a private member to promote
that most desirable result.

I approve of the mode in which our foreign and
dnniestic affairs have been ernolucterl be the present
Ministry, and believing that ihev will pqrane an enlight-
ened and progressive policy, I intend, if elected, to give
them a g..neral but independent support.

I OmII promote to the best nt my ability judicious
aniendrotot.iii the Law,., and expecialiy as regartla the
witainiArAfion of liamkropts Estate,.. which laDOW
:Wended with great hardhhip and inconvenience to the
Mercantile community.

I have always been a warm friend to Education, anti
I rejoice that, from the present state of public opinion.
the difficulties vlidi have hitherto impeded its extension
to the whole population be e m likely to be in a great
measure turmonhtc4l.

am in favour of a more equal and general diNtribn•
jaunt I,real Taxation. and of riVil g to the gem nil
bud, of li.deryt rA, by means of elected Representatives
and other 114.14 ssary arrangement-.. a more direct and
er.cient contral over the Management of County
Finance.

Intending soon to afford yon in person a full rapid.
lion of lily views on tile social and political questions of
the day,
I am, Gentlemen,

Your faithful Servant,

ItiCHAIM PAUL AMPHLETT.
