them if they had been in the Geld picking sticks, and they
all denied being there that day ; he then charged them
with plucking tee wool from. sheep, which they denied.
The two girls had bundles of wood, and one of the
younger children had • benne which Amelia Dyke sail

The oorn market in London is again regulated by this
sontinuanee of extraordinary weather. With only a
trifling home isupply, and no signs of large foreign *on.
Momenta, the rise of Monday was scarcely maintained
on Friday.—The meat trade is influenced by heavy
supplies, in addition to the groat beat. On Thursday
18,630 sheep were in the market. All animals aye
oheapsr.— Hops are described as being most latnriant
in Kent and Sussex, and their cleanness is also, with
one or two exemptions, said to be generaL—Wool is
moderately inonired after. This alines principally from
tha ffuctuations in tha ootton market and the want of
that buoyancy in trade which ha, been expiated for •
year and a-half. At the sales of foreign wool, now going
on in Moorgataadreet, London, priom have been Arm
and bidding, spirited for Australian and Cape parcels.
11. Eichwartse says, in his circular :—" Continental
buyers especially operate largely, and will probably take
more than half of the wools offered if they continue
their purchases at anything like the present rate." From
this it would seem there are sound reasons for the non'
revival in British woollen munnfacturing.

TR& REV. W. PERCEVAL WARD.

To the lidilor.

Sir, —I mast request you to do me the favour of stating
in your neat paper, that having no sufficient evidence
that an image of the Virgin Ma y was upon or near the
altar of the Roman Catholic Church at which Mr.
Ward privately wo shipped. I could not have asserted
that he knelt "be'o a a high altar on which was an
image of the Virgin Mary,' and Mr. Ward himself so
hr from admitting it. in answer ton direct question
on this very point, most positively and distinctly denied
knowledge of any such image. I most undouhtally
believe that whether or not the image was there, his act
of devoti n was wholly independent of it. lam certain
that this feature of the komish system is repulsive to
Lis faith and feelina. IVhatever may be your opinions
.or those hf your correspondent, with respect to Buri-
deaconal chapters, I am sorry you should appear to
regret that a meeting of cleraman held for any purpose
terminated in a friendly apirit. For myself, my desire
la, while earnestly contending for the fa th, on much
as within me " to live peaceably with all men."

AT • MEETING of the GOVERNORS

Saturday, the 27th, in order to 'iv- notice of an alters-

surgeons in the room of Mr. Cuamg. who has resigned.
As an eye-witness of the working of the 'Amyl al for
many years, I would ask the Governors well to con.
abler the matter before they consent to the alteration
of this Rule. . _ _

As was well observed by the Chairman of the Com-
mittee, the office hitherto has been • prize, warmly

surgeons resigning, and two candidates are in the field.
One, feeling his chance f success to he but small,
determines to try if he cannot succeed in persuading
the Governors that two are necessat7; and in about a
week after the vacancy has become known we are for
the first time, told that it is absolutely necessary there
should be an increase in the staff, but, what says Mr.
Tudor who is brought forward as an authority,
"I noted undertake the whole of the be 'a if I might."
And the only reason he gives for en increase is the
want of help occasionally in the operating room ; but

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH

OF nOaCHESTER.

Onntmax,— •
9-IHE Dissolution of Parliament will shortly
1 bring me before you as a Candidate for re-election.
For twelve years I have enjoyed and greatly valued
the high privilege of representing your ancient Borough,
and, I trust, that during that period I have done nothing
to forfeit the good opinion, which has four times induced
you to elect me.
I observe, with alarm, that it is intended to ask the
&rent of the New Parliament to measures, which seem
to Inc calculated, at no distant date, to divorce the
Church from its union with the Stet-, and to rupture
an alliance, which, in my judgment, has contributed
materially to the happiness, morality, and stability of
the country.
Admitting that the Breech of the Church Establish-
ment in Ireland may be charged with some defects, I
am of opinion, that it is safer and more just to reform
them, than to cut away the Establishment altogether.
Upon other public measures, which have come before
Parliament this last Session, my Vote, are before you.
Upon those subjects that are certain to occupy the
attention of the Reformed Pediment, I shall take care,
I in the event of your honouring toe with a renewal of
your confidence, to bestow very careful consideration, and
to give my Vote without subservience to either Great
Party in the State. '
Having had for many years the advantage of serving
with Mr. Sheridan as my Colleague, it is no slight
grsitification to me to find that I an. to be spared the
I pain of opposing him.
I am not blind to the fact, that if you do we the
honour of again sending me to Psi-home:A, his retirement
will impose upon me • grave increase of responsibility,
I which I shall strive to meet by careful study of your
interests, and adhesion to that policy which appears to
me to be in reality the most truly liberal.
I etc, Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
NAPIER STURT.

OF-Foßsir.

As Parliament will soon be dissolved, I
venture to express a hope that those who have
hitherto enjoyed the Frnrichise, as well as those who
have 110. SOtillited ii for the firrt time, will do me Vie
honour of electing me to serve as mie of their Represen-
tatives in the new Home of COILITUOUS.

Since I was last elected, the Act relating to the
Representation of the People has been amended by •
large extension of the Franchise but there are some
Classes in the Reform Act of 1867 which the next
Parliament will, I how, alter and improve.
Two of the principal questions of the present day are
the Education of the People and the Policy to be pur-
sued towards the Irinh Church. With regard to the
former, I shall oppose any scheme for raising a Compul-
wry Local Rate for Educational purposes. On the latter
question I have voted, and intent to vote, in favour of
the Resolutions which would put an end to the ascend.
sooty of the Established Church in Ireland, ea I believe
It is impossible to maintain the existing state of that
Church, and that it is right to do seek an act of justice
to the Melt as we in PriArland ahould desire if we were
In a similar positios. The details of asy pie. will have
my awful esseidereition, when they us lubrought
before Parliesseat ; and I shell vote for o Sebstros
which, in my opinion, can injure the Protestant religion,
or which does not deal liberally with vented ruitereSe&
and private or personal rights. The Union made in the
year 1800 of the two Churches of England and Ireland
has not added to the number, of the Protestants in
Ireland, and has been upheld rather by the power of
England than by the affections of the Irish. I believe
that their separation will not weaken the Church of
England. while the people maintain the true Protestant
doctrines of the Christian Church.

The increase in National and Load Tamales requires
careful scrutiny, and I shall support all well considered
measures which may tend to diminish expanse, while
maintaining efficiency; and shall be prepared to moist
in removing or lemming the buries of • Tax which
may be proved to press unequally on any portion of the
community.
Trusting that my political conduct has met with your
general approval.
I remain, Gentlemen,
Your obliged and faithful Servant,
W. 11. B. PORTMAN.
