LIVERPOOL POLYTECHNIC SOCIETY.

The usual monthly meeting of this society was held last
evening at the Royal Institution, Colquitt-street. Mr
Boni% occupied the chair. There was a fair attendance of
the members of the society present. The chairman an-
nounced that the paper of the evening should have
been on life boats, by Kr. Henderson, of London,
but he had received a cmmutication from that
gentleman, to the effect that the Extreme pressure
of business had prevented him from completing it.
therefore the society would have to forego, for the present,
the pleasure of hearing that interestit g communication.'
As there was no other paper reedy, the evening would be
devoted to miscellaneous communications. Mr. Hasard
directed the attention of the society to the fact that cock-
roaches would eat and destroy gutta percha tubing. He
knew it for a fact, because he had had to remove some
which he found had been destroyed by those insects. The
chairman wee not surprised to hear that, as they would
eat any vegetable matter. The question was, was gluts
percha as good as India rubber tubing. Nothing farther
was said on the subject. After a brief conversation the
meeting was then adjournei.

Mr. Kinnard asked the Secretary of State for the

FAULTY PETITIONS.

Two petitions from the council—one relating to the treat.
moot of the Crimean Commissioners, the other to the budget
—which had been forwarded to Mr. J. C. Ewart far presents
tion, were returned by that gentleman, with an intimation
that the*Speaker would not permit them to be read, partly
because they were too strongly worded, and partly because
they cited speeches and proceedings in the house. To this a
reply was sent to the effect that when men are really in earnest,
their best course is to use such words as will serve to express
what tle y mean, and that if the House of Commons claims
exemption from all criticism on its proceedings by it con-
stituents, the soonei such immitni'y is abolished the better.
The petitions were, however, sent back in a modified
form. They were presented by Mr. Ewart on the 20th
ultimo, and have since been printed with the votes.
The President thought it very likely that no such objection
would have been raised if the petitions had spoken of what bad
passed in the house in terms of fulsome adulation. It would
perhaps have been better to tender the petitions as they were,
and then, if they were rejected, to have published them in the
newspapers.

TO MY FELLOW TOWNSMEN. THE ELECTORS
AND BURGESSES OF LIVERPOOL.

GENTLEMEN,
INVITED bv a numerous and influential body of
my Fellow Townsmen, I e,me forward as a Candidate
for the honour of again re ,resenting- you in Parliament.
I sincerely regret the vote of the House of Commons with reference
to the late unfortunate occurrences at Canton, implying a censure
upon the Government for their support of the British authorities in
China, a course which I think they were called upon to tape by a
regard alike to humanity, and to the honour and interests of the
nation.

My opinions, upon the commercial policy by which the trade of
the country ought to be regulated, as well as upon religious and
political subjects generally, e too well known to you to make it
necessary f,r me to ent,r fnto any explanation of them. They are
the same which I held in 1852, when you did me the honotir to return
me as one of your Representatives by an overwhelming majority ;
and although your choice was a nulled u...0n the petition of my
political o,ponents, which was universally condemned as being most
frivolous and vexatious, the report of the Committee of the House
of Commons expressly exonerated me from the slightest imputations,
and I trust that I may hope for the renewed expression of your
confidence.

Amongst questions of local interest, the wanton attack upon your
Town Dues is 'the most prominent, and I shall feel it 'my duty to
continue the most uncompromising opposition to such attempted
spoliation
I have devoted many years to the service of the town in the dis-
charge of most important public duties, awl if it should again be
your pleasure to elect me as one of your Represen,atives, the busi-
ness of this great port will have my special and zealous care, whilst
attending to the general interests of the country.
I have the honour to be, gentlemen,
Your obedient and faithful servant.

The association has every reason to believe that the irregularities

quite as numerous as those which for many years it was engaged in
exposing, as connected with the adverti,.ement duty and the news-
paper stamp. Nothing will tend so much to the abolition of the
p ,per duty as a systew atic attack upon the injustice which it inflict
in individual cases. The association will therefore feel obliged by
any addiition to its information on this subject, and will be ready to
consider the practicability of obtaining redress in any individuals
case of grievance.
