TO Till ELtCTORS_ OF_THI COUNTY OF

'-golin:

Genumiat,—
MR. GLADSTONE having somewhat
aiwuptly dissolved Parliament, I venture to
rresent myself to you, in the holm tt.at you mny again
laanour ins with a ronawal of that °audience which for
eighteen years you have so kindly extxuded to me.
My polltioral opinions are well known, and my pest
Conduct will, I true, be accepted as the beet assuracee
for the future. _ . _

Although a member of the greit Conservative, party,
I have ',ever shown mpolf an enemy to progress, but
have invariably supixatcd all measures which in my
opinion were calculated to advaooe the prosperity of
this great Country.
You ma) re'y on my being a strenuous upholder of
the righis of profortr, and sour fliochlog opponent of
all violent and organic changes likely to Ii jure or
Impair our muck cherished Institutions.
My princlpies are, in short, the ma•ntenance in their
integrity of the Courtitution in Church and State, and
the just rights of all classes.
Should It b your pleasure to re-elect me, rest usured
it will be my const.nt endeavour to serve you te the
beat of my ability.
I remain, Gentlemen,
Your faithful and obedient Servant,
lISNRY GEktakti) STURT.
TO THE ELICTORS OF THE COUNTY OP
DOWNY.

011111.1111111,
TN coming irfore you spin an 'Candidate for
the honour of b Log elected as one of your
Repreeettatives in Parliament, I venture to hope that
my political condect daring the last 16 years has been
stie h as to meet with your general approv.el.
The Parliament in 1868 has passed Into law several
most important Measures; but some great questions
still reersin to be settled by Legislation. Of these I
believe that the twv which exente the greatest amount
of pohl,c iuterest are the Education of Children and the
re-adjustment of the Inoidence of Local Taxation.
I ant opp.sed to any material alteration of the
Eluestien Arr. of 1870, till expepienoe Las shown that
such alteration is eetv olutely necessary; and I phould
resist any attempt tv make Education purely secular,
and to deprive it of the religious element.
As regards Imperial and Local Taxation, I shall
auril,ert any Fiat sob,, ice. for the alleviation and b itar
ouljaatment of the lineviens witch now appear to press
on qual:y on c-rtain &script iODI of property.
'y
Oa other questions of gist iimmtance, which will
probab
angrier. the attention of the next Parliament,
I shall, it you confer on me the honour of reelection,
endeavour tv give my vote in support of that course
which is, in my humble opinion, most eonduolvo to
the general wolf ere of the natiou sad moat In
, n
accordion* with a policy which, without being sob-
verily* le, i the beat sense of the words, Liberal and
progressive.

I remain, Gentlemen.
Your obliged and faithful servant,
W. U. B. PORTMAN.

TO THE ELL.L.TOIRE OF WAREHAM.
OZSTLFIIIN.

IN offering myself as a Candidate for the
gulihed honour of repreeentiug you in tho
Lew Parliament about to be elected, I vulture to
thick you will no; dceui rwe wanting In proper
respect to y uur views or u acting wholly without
wet rout.

It is true tbat, owing to the sodden Dissolution of
Parliament, I have not received any formal requisition
to become • Camlidate ; but the assurance's of rupport
which are daily reaching me encourage me to to leve
that my political principles are in harmony with your
own, and that you all give me credit for a determina-
tion to mislead, and actively perform the duties
which would devolve upon me were I to become the
represawative of your ancient Wrench.
As, however, it is riAbt and fittiog that In melting to
so lospoitant • p.aition I ahould plainly and eapteilly
declare the views which will indention my conduct in
Parliament, I have the honour to lay them before you
as follows :
I regard the present division of political parties as
anomalous. There Is no serious divergence of opinion
between moderate Conservatives and Liberals, an yet,
though the moderate thinkers form the great nesinity
in both parties, hey lend support to the most extreme
VieWl if put forward as petty ogles. It surely would be
more reasonable for • coalition to take plus between
the true Conservatives and true Liberals, and for this
united body to enforce measures of healthy progrres
upon the extreme Tories, and at the saute time to effort
an uncompromking resistance to the destruotive and
spoliator, policy of the Radicals.
Aeoordingly, I shoal conceive it my duty to support
all sound and rational measures ir‘esperetiv• of party
oonsideretions ; but upon a general question of confi-
dence I shout I vote for the Ot.inservatives u being leas
likely than the Lib irate to rush to perilous extremes.
With respect to the Established Church, I trust the
time will never arrive for bereaving the State of that
security of religious freedom which it is the glory of
the Church of &gland to have instituted and main.
tained. There is, dosbtle,s, room for much reform
within her walls, and her true friends will be foremost
In advoe‘ting such alumnae ; but the work of repair
and adaptation is widely different from that of
destruction.
The Education Lot of 1870 should, I think, be further
tested before any considerable alteration is made. All '
parties are agr.ed that it ootistltutes an important
advance in the &tuition of true progress, and common
sense dictates that sufficient time has not yet elapsed
for judging correctly how to improve its operation.
The extension of the county franchise is, perhaps, •
iii however, that a perpetual
natural sequence to the adoption of a household suffrage
on is much to be deprecated,
kt the
nbog rorfuthhes.ooBensetiitourru,
I think this measure way well be deferred until some
rational plan of securing • repreeentation for ptoperty
and intelligincr, as well as mere numbers, shall have
been matured.
As regards the national booms and expenditure, there
would appear to exist many opportu,,ierag of reform.
The waste and lack of effioiency that have rendered so
many Government Departments notorious call foully
for a better ',item of control, while the method and
incidence of taxation are equally defective. Foremost
amongst the blemishes of the financial institutions of
the country lithe Inoome-tax, and I feel sure that if
the moderete politicians of both parties were to unite
this obnoxious iwp mit would disappear.
With regard to foreign policy, I believe that the
statesman who adopts justice and self-respuot as
his watichwords will best give eft ci to the wishes of
the country ;arid 1 am eontident you will agree with lee
in holding that the policy of the Govemment of Great
Britain shnuld be to tarsi when every tie which tan
unite England to her Colonic', sedum ommulidato them
Into one greet Federal Empire.
And now to speak more particularly of the Issue
placed before the country at this General Election. I
believe It to cousist is political freedom, persottal
liberty, and social happiness and prosperity on the one
hand, and in democratic destoUam, inquisitorial
supervision, social neglect, and insecurity of property
on the other. If Wm issue be kept in view the verdict
of the country is not difficult to divine. We shall tee
returned • Parliament eouaistios for the most part of
moderate politicians who, r.juting the wild experi-
ments of radical doctrinaires. and the shifty incapacity
that has of late worked so much mischief, and ha. so
needloolly humiliated the country and irritated the
commualty, cili place in office a Goveruwout deter-
mitred to put abide the idle quarrels of party, to restore
individual liberty, to give track to commerce, ita freedom,
to encourage the accumulation of property by the
Industrious, to make the homes of the masses healthy
end happy, and to pup touts in every legitimate dire..
thou the Constitntional traditions that have been the
mainstay of liegland's greatness.
Such gentletnee, are any political opinions. As for
your local Interests, 1 am so identified with them, and
have become so pleasantly associated with the boron eh,
that I shall bold them as • tutored trait, to be saurificed
neither by inattention of tuy Parliamentary duties nor
by a neglect of your wishea when oominumeated to me
from tithe to time.
