TO THE ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF
DORSET,

Geeetd
YOU have on four previous oeouions done
me the honour of sending me to Parliament as
your Representative; and in soliciting for the fifth time
the suffrages of an enlarged conatituenoy, I do so with
the more confident*, in ocinsequencie of • well founded
hope that you have approved of the course that I have
hitherto pursued.
I have always given an independent but consistent
support to the Conservative party, because I hold it to
be the safer and far the more prectioalot the two. It may
not talk so ; but it gets through more business,
and taros its work out better than its oppooents, and
this I believe the country to be aware of. Moreover
the members of this party have not fished for popularity
by clamouring for illconsidered change.; but have
waited until the proper moment arrived, and then have
.„„„nedn,d in bringing before Parliament, in a practical
shape, reforms of which their opponents have only
talked. I may pint notably to the Reform Bill of the
lest two Bessions, by which so many of you are now
called appellee:moles the Franchise foe the first time.
The Conservative Government has not only thesseded
In Dealing this Jeweling question, but it hes placed, in a
comparatively sheet time, the Arnica relatioce of the
sonntry upon a wand and intelligible footing, based
on the eoafidencie with which it has inspired foreign
cabinets, by convincing them of its loyalty and straight-
forwardness, free from miry and bass, and from the
slightest taint of intrigue. I look upon such a character
for honesty as this to be of no light importance in the
present impost of affairs, and one that behoves the
ffiectore to weigh well before they risk the loss of it.
The Cowes relive Government has been taunted with
extravagance (a charge gamily made), and increase of
, Estimates has been eclidemned in the lump by persons
who knew that such an accusation (no matter how
founded) is likely to tell on the eve of a General
Election; but can this be fairly said of it' It is notorious
that a cheap Government is not always the most
economical in the end ; and that parsimony, at the
expense of efficiency, is often a poor saving. Popularity
may be temporality ~lied by snob a policy; but if
establishments are to be reduced so low that they are
inadequate to supply the purposes for which they were
intended, In those who are theadvaates for such a policy
scoop& the responsibility. I am an *demote for seocomy
but not at all hazards. Recollect the Crimean War, sod
our abort-oominp on that memorable occasion.
In my opinion the industry, ability, statesmanship,
and specially the control of temper displayed by Mr.
Disraeli upon many notable °combos, contrast favour-
ably with the qualifications possessed by any other MAD
that is a member of the present Parliament, or •
candidate for a seat in the next. I shall, therefore, give
him, in the event of your returning me, my willing and
independent support; bemuse I feel that under the
present difficult eirenmstencee of the country, the
measures introduced by him promise to be of • sounder
and more practical nature than three of any other
political leader which the times have yet produced.
I own that I look with jealousy and distrust upon the
league of • host of believers in many different political
creeds combined under the leadership of Mr. Gladstone
on one point, and one only, which may be shortly charac-
terised as the policy of subversion.
Great and extras-agent bids for popularity have been
made, and will be made, under this head ;hut I appeal to
the experience of the lest thirty years, and ask whether •
reasonable man OM say that any of them have been
carried out?

Mr. Gladstone's Resolutions in the matter of the Irish
Church Establishment were eminently unpracitical. He
failed to point out what be intended to do with the
re*enues, and his proposition for a sort of clerical torture
which might loot over the out forty years, was e fancy
which he would boogied to forget were his hands upon
the reins of onkel. -

_
The proposal was intended to perm • temporary
purpose, and, having failed, deserves nofurther attention.
The endowment of the Irish Oligarch. however. is quite
another matter, and ODO which ought not to be made
the touchstone of porgy. lam well aware of the
difficulties which surround it, and I hold that the man
who approaches it, pledged beforehand to a particular
°ourse of action, has given hostages to party after a
tuition that will probably interfere with the decision to
which his better judgment may hereafter point.
If ever there were • subject to be approached without
party bias, and handled upon large and oom-
prehensive principles, it is this one, which now bids
fair to be treated u a party wekh-nry, and misguided
accordingly.
If yoo return me to Parliament I pledge myself to
consider the übjeet in all its bearings, and I think that
is • course which you would wish your representative to
follow. _ .

I have addressed you at some length, because I wish
to place before you the situation in all its significance.
It is no use to deny that a crisis has occurred, and that
a great political chants has taken place which is fall of
meaning. For my own part I look to the future with
oonfidence. I expect that the "subversive party" will
receive a check. I calculate upon the sound good
sense of the country, and I think the Eleetors will have
no difficulty is deciding who their true friends are.
The capability of carrying important measures through
Parliament, able conduct of the Foreign relation, of this
country, prudent forethought in keeping up ita Defenoes,
and great experience in dealing with Parlament, are
qualifications of no ligtt practical value ; and I maintain
that they are possessed in a remarksble manner by Her
Majesty's present advisers. On this ground I shall
support them should you, all I trust, return me MOO
more to Parliament.

am, Gentl.aen,
Your devoted Servant,
