FIFESRIRE Etecrtos.—Mr. J. Boyd Kinnear,
younger, of Kinnear, bus announced himself as • candidate
for the vacant seat for the county of Fife. le as address' to
the electors, Mr. Kisoear says : 'Om the larger quantities of
publk policy, which must, as heretofore, chiefly determioe
you choke, I shall otitis' found backward in maintaining the
principles which the Fife constituency has steadily upheld,
and which I myself inherit from one by whom they were
coosistutly supported when leas popular than they are
pow. There is, indeed, at the present moment some lased
for • more &fissile aseertioa, sod more strenuous
advocacy. than has lately bees given on the part
of liberals, of the maxims embodied in their' old
watchwords Pesos, Retrenchment, and Reform. If
honoured by your coefideece„ I shall seek to support •
foreign policy more truly peaceful, because more faithful to
allies, less timid towards aggressors, ands lees meddlesome
with matters in which we are not resolved to take a decided
part. I shall support the reduction of taxation. behevieg
that, with wiser 'assessment, and with better organiestioa,
the country would possess more reel strength although its
outlay was greatly leseenei. The malt-tax, which presses
with peculiar seventy on the farming interest, I should be
prepared to abolish, nor do I conceive that if due seaway
is enforced. there should be any occasion to provide •
substituted enures of revenue. The extensim of the nuts
(rage, which both Lord Derby sad Lord Russell ham advo.
rated. does Dot seam to me to be • matter which is proper
to be postponed merely on the ground of the existing tran-
quillity of the alum comereed. And, sampling Lord
Derby's proposition, that intelligence u well as property
should he considered a sufficient qualification. I should sup-
port ewers well.devised effort for the admission of the intel-
ligence of all classes to • share in the representation,
without males till such admission is demanded by inesist-
ibis force."
