THE WESTMINSTER ELECTION.

The following letters have been issued from the
central committee of the two candidate' at West-
minster, and replies are to be addressed to the
joint committee there:

Central Committee, 30, Cockepur-greet,
Charing-crose, October.

Pear Sir,—l beg earnestly to advise you to vote both
for Mr. J. 8. Mill and myself at the coming election, in-
stead of plumping, as you propose, for me. It is of the
importance that the IMOD of the liberal party in
Ilee7itaitintsster should be as complete as possible, as the
conservative candidate has no chance but in the division
of the liberals. I may add that Mr. Mill has addressed to
those of his supporters who have expressed an intention
of !dumping fur him a circular the precise counterpart of
this. lam informed that the numbers at present intend-
ing to plump fur Mr. Mill on the cos hand and for myself
on the other are very
_nearly sqsal.—l bug to remain,

Dear Sir,-1 beg earnestly to advise you to vas both
for esptisa Grosvenor and myself at the twining eteetiou,
instead of plumping, as you propose, for me. It is of the
greatest importance that the union of the liberal party in
Westminster should be as complete as possible, as the
conservative candidate has no chance but in the division
of the hbtrals. I may add that Captain Grosvenor has
addressed to those of his supporters who have expressed
an intention of plumping for him a circular the procisa
counterpart of this. lam informed that the numbers at
present intending to plump for Captain Grosvenor on the
one hand, and for myselt on the other, are very nearly
equal.—l beg to remain, dear sir, yours faithfully, J. S.
P.S.— A reply, aeldressed to the ventral committee,
will much oblige.

WESLEYAN ELECTORS.—The astounding advice
given by the Methodist Recorder to Wesleyan electors will
be held to justify all that the bitterest enemies of Wes-
leyannun have said of the subordination amongst that
body of every consideration, private or public, to denomi-
national interests, and the coustspient want of principle
which characterises their public action. Whatever else you
do--says the Melodist Recorder to its readers—or whoever
else you vote fur, vote for a Wesleyan whenever you get
the chance, no mutter what his political principles, nor how
widely ',sever they differ from yours. These are the words of
our coutemporary :—"There may be points of difference be-
tween the candidate and the elector—perhaps important
points. But we submit that the compact church bond
which unites them ought to prevail over such differences.
The points of agreement must surely be more numerous
and more vital than the points of divergence." And then
the Itton:der proceeds to mention seven Wesleyans who
sits offering tnemsetves to different constituencies, five of
them as liberals and two as conservatives; but it "hopes"
that the liberal Wesleyan electors of Staffordshire
and Hull will support these conservative Wesleyans,
" and that Wesleysui conservative voters in the other five
constituencies will not hesitate, but will to • man rally
round and support the Wesleyan candidate, It would
be a great pity—we could could almost go so far as to eay
it would be • burning shame—if any of the Neve& gentle-
men whose names we have mentioned should be kept out
of parliament through the opposition of members of their
own religious denomination,-"- There is not another re-
ligious body in England, not even the Roman catholic*,
that would dare to tender to its voters such advice. It
any congregationalist were to offer himself as • sup-
porter of Mr. Disraeli and conservative policy, we should
hold the congregationalist electors doubly bound to vote
against him, and prevent his return by all hazards. We
are deeply grieved to find such language in a Wesleyan
journal, lest perhaps this disclosure of the legitimate re-
sults of the persistent policy of the Wesleyan howlers to
keep their people listless on political questions, and awake
only to the interests of Weeleyaniam, may have • good
result. General reprobation may open the eyes of the
Wesleyan to their grievous mistake and error.—lisglist

SHERIFFS' SUIT AND SERVlCE.—Yesterday Mr.
Secondary Potter and the City Solicitor attended, with
the Under-Sheriffs, at the °fins: of the Queen's Itemem-
brancer, 48, Chancery-lane. The usual documents relat-
ing to the accounts of the late sheriffs were then read and
filed, and proclamation was made for the " tenants and
occupiers of a piece of waste ground called the Moors, in
the county of Salop, to come forth and do service," upon
which the City Solicitor cut one faggot with a hatchet and
another with a bill-hook. A second proclamation was
then made similar to the former, but having referenve to
the occupiers of "a certain tenement called the Forge," in
the parish of St. Clement Dams, upon which the City
Solicitor counted out six horse-shoes and sixty-one nails,
with which proceeding the uereniony terminated.—The
eity.hess.
FATAL ACCIDENT AT FRO7NORE-110USE.— Yes-
terday morning • shocking accident occurred at Frog-
more-house, Windsor-park, the residents of their Royal
Ilighnesies Prince and Princess Christian of Schleewig-
Holstein. The mansion is being prepared for the recep-
tion of the prince and princess, who are expected to return
to Frogmore about Thureday next. A bricklayer, named
Andrew Starr, an aged man, about 66, was at work ou
the roof of the house, doing some repairs for his employer,
Mr. (lenge, when he suddeuly fell a distance of about 40
feet to the ground. Medical assistance was at outs ob-
tained, but he died soon after the occurrence.
Finis AND Exmosiox.—An explosion occurred
on Thursday night on the premises of Mr. Foulard, manu-
facturer of detonating paper, situate No. 32, Rennes-
street, Commercial-rnad Mat. It appears that after the
paper, is saturated with the chemicals it is placed in a
machine to be pressed, and during that operation the
whole exploded with a fearful noise, setting fire at the
same time to the workshops on the first floor. The engines
of the Metropolitan Brigade arrived with all possible ex-
