TO THE ELECTORS OF EXCHANGE WARD,

GENTLEMEN,
HAVING received a ,requisition very numerously
signed by electors of the ward, of all parties, inviting
me to become a candidate for re-election as one of your repre-
sentatives in the Municipal Council, I have much pleasure in
acceding to the request.
My long connection with the ward renders it Unnecessary for
me to make any declaration of-my sentiments, which are well
known to you. Should TOU do me the honour of re-electing
me, my best exertions shall be used to promote,your interest,
and the general welfare of_the town.
I have the honour to be, gentlemen, your obedient servant,
Dingle-hall, Oct., 1858. CHARLES TURNER.

TO THE BURGESSES OF EVERTON AND KIRKDALE
WARD.
GENTLEMEN,
BY Lapse of time, my occupancy of the honourable
and responsible position to which you generously elected
me three years ago as one of your Representatives in the Tov,,,
Council is about to terminate.
In reviewing thy humble servieerklathataw'r
t y tuat IL:-A-ve at
11.it..T.11111}ititrditY TiOiie'st-ly endeavoured on all questions
affecting either the interest of the town in general, or your
ward in particular, to act up to my convictions of duty disiu-
tertstedly, impartially, and to the best of my judgment.
Whether these endeavours have satisfied your reasonable
expectations, and desires is a question solely for your decision.
If permitted to form an opinion from the requisition which
I have now had the honour to receive, so numerously signed
by persons of all shades of opinion, desiring me again to
permit myself to be nominated, I am certainly encouraged to
believe that the mode in which my duties have been dis-
charged has been satisfactory to the large majority of the
constituents.

Under any other conviction than this I should have hesi-
tated to accede to the flattering wish now expressed, and
shrunk from again seeking the suffrages of those whose good-
will I might unhappily have lost.
_ . .

Having no self interested ends to serve, I yield to a sense of
duty, and in placing myself again in your hands I beg to
assure you that, should it be your pleasure to re-elect me, my
best energies shall continue to be devoted to the protection and
promotion of your interests, with the advantage of a more
enlarged and practical acquaintance with your varied wants
than I could boast when you formerly gave me your confidence.
I am, gentlemen, your obedient servant,
JOHN JOHNSON STITT.

TO THE ELECTORS OF ST. ANNE'S WARD.

GENTLEMEN,
ir have been asked by a most influential deputation
from your ward to allow myself to be placed in nomina-
tion for the seat in the Council abiut to be vacated by your
respected member, Mr. Mellor.
After consulting with friends upon whose judgment I can
rely, I have determined on placing my services at your
disposal. _ _ .
if you elect me, .I shall go into the Council Chamber deter-
mined, so far as may lie in my power, to promote the interests
not only of this ward, but of the town at large.
By a judicious but considerable retrenchment of our borough
expenditure, I believe that the taxes levied upon your earn-
ings may be diminished, and the imminent risk of additional
burden 9 averted.
To a business-like and proper management of our vast cor-
porate property it will be admitted that a knowledge of what
it is, and where it is situated, is required. The production of
the return Ordered at the instance of Mr. Gladstone, three
years ago, is still delayed, and ought at once to be placed in
the hands of every member of the Council.
Now that the dock property is separated by act of Parlia-
ment from the corporate estate, I can see no reason why it
should not be subject to the same rates as all other property.
- On the 9th of November I shall, if returned by you, be called
upon to take part in the election of eight gentlemen as alder-
men of the borough. I will on that occasion, while exercising
my independent judgment as. to who are the beat fitted to
receive so marked a- distinction, endeavour to secure such a
distribution of the aldermanic honours as to leave no doubt
upon the mind of any one that " honour" has been given "to
whom honour is due."
I shall support the extension of education, as it alone can
enable a man to fulfil the duties of his station Honourably in
whatever position of life he may be.
I shall endeavour, by advocating the establishment of public
parks and playgrounds, to diminish the temptations to intem-
perance and crime.
In a few months the.noble gift of our fellow-townsman, Mr.
William Brown, is to be thrown open to the public, and will
form a lasting ornament to your ward. -
I hope soon, too, to see a branch of the Liverpool Savings
Bank established in this part of the town, convinced that t? .e
extension of the means of mental culture by the Free Library
Will be followed here, as elsewhere, by a marked moral and
Physical improvement. •
It will be my pleasure, if returned to the Council, to support
some of the schemes of borough improvements wlich have
