" My cleat Mr. Wortley,—l get repr. mentalites from .ur
West Riding (donde, calling attention to the fact of rear
name being put upon Mr. Gladatonee committee, and ea*,
it ought to be contradicted. Perhaps you will tell me ht./
the fact stands. Our accounts are not yet made up, but I
hope 1,0001. Is aline shall have to call upon you for.—Yours,

"My dear Mr. Baxter,—My mune has been placed on
Mr. Gleclitone's committee with my consent, as it bee been
on former occasion., and I have voted for him ; nor do I
know of scything that bee occurred which should have
compile, me to withdraw that support which I have
hitherto given to pc brilliant a representative, to whom I am
personally attached by iri,ndeltip and the ties of near con-
nexion not more than by entire faith in his high principle
and true patriotism.
I have always contended, in conformity with the
ancient practice, that the seat for Oxford University, once
given to her most distinguished eons, should not be dis-
turbed on transient or mere party grounds, and es I 1111
willing to believe that, notwithstanding the cheequend cha-
racter of the present ministry, the tried and conscientious
champion of our best institutions in church and state,
associated with ouch men as Mr. Sidney Herbert and the
Dube of Newcastle, ham obtained from the Prime Minister
(himself no dangerous innovator) some guarantees for
meditation and conservative ItC.lll, I see no reason to de-
part from that rule now.
"In common, as I believe, with high authorities in the
conservative party, I hold that the true policy of the
friends of the late government, which 1 was anxious to
sumert, is to encourage rather than repel the more comer-
entire portion of the present mile' cabinet, and, while in
a minority, to abstain at such a juncture as the present
from embarrassing the Queen in the choice of her servants
or the conduct of -her government. I hie course I believe
to Le consistent wi h true constitutional end cueservative
principles; but, if my eupt ort of Mr. Gladatone bee caused
rearpiiee to an those who were my friends in the late
contest for the Welt Biting, this explanation of the groands
on which I tutus acted is due to their generous assistance on
that 00,-23i011.
" I thank you fix your information as to the extent to
width I am likely to be called upon to contribute to the
extensor of the late contest, which, though not inconaide-
rable to a man In my position, is not the swat Important
sacrifice to which I bath been willing to submit for the
intermits of the constitutional cause in our country.
" I rennin, my de rr Mr. Baxter,
" Yours very sinc.rely,
