TO rHE ELECTORS OF THE EASTERN
• DIVISION OF THE COUNTY OF SURREY.
Gentlemen,
The time has now arrived when it is necessary forme again to seek
a renewal of your confidence.
When, in 1847, you did me the honour to elect me as one of your
representatives, you were then anxious to confirm and strengthen
• 'the Free Trade policy of Sir R. Peel.
The cause you had then at heart is in the greatest danger now.
Her Majesty's Ministers arebound and pledged,(if honour exists any
longer in 1 üblic men) to do all in their power to restore Protection.
and thus once more revert to dear prices and short supplies.
Lord Derby has told you that the policy of Protection is, right, and
'that he is ready at once to propose it, if the Electors of :Great Bri-
tain will only declare themselves in favour of such' a Coarse. ,
lithe supporters of Lord Derby are prepared to break their pledges
and desert their principles, it is for you to say whether you will trust'
the nursing of Free Trade to men who, without disguise, are hostile
o it.
It is for. you to declare whether you are in favour of progress, and
the policity of Free Trade, or whether you are in favour of a retro-
grade movement, and of supporting •a' party who seem at best to
have no prbacip•es to guide them.
My own political opinions are well known to you ; I have never
-.flinched from expressing them; I have made no comprises, for in
-truth I knew not how to Make them. In my political life I ha:7f'
done nothing I aepent of, I have not even given a vote I wish
to recall. who
Let me now remind that portion of the Agricultural part'',
at tales have been a little disposed to be dissatisfied, .that I have
ale ays urged upon them so seek redress. not by any attempt to re-
_ tinpo e the Corn taws ; I have alwa3 s frankly told Oleos that by so
• doing they would be losing.much time in a • fruitless attempt —that
the wise course would be to adape themselves to their altered cir-
cumstances, t.y seeking finch changes in certain laws and customs
as are consonant with the present times, and above all a revision of
the oppressive burthen of local and general taxation. That is my
opinion BM and as many of the agricultural party have come round
to it, I look forward to. their support."
I have warmly advocated the extension of the franchise, not only
because in .a free country it is 'absolutely necessary it should keep
Voce with the increased intelligence and prosperity of the people ;
hot only because great anemones ought to be abolished, and great
and. acknowledged principles carried out, but because I am confident
• frogs what:has taken place on the' Continent, that these changes
ought to be made during a period of perfect calm ; I am persuaded
It is wrong to wait till reform is violently extorted as a right, and no
longer aecepted with gratitude as a boon. . ,
It has been my endeavour to simplify and assimilate the franchise,
' by making it the same in the counties that it now is in the boroughs,
so that every occapier everywhere to the amount of 10/. per annum
• might have a vote. This is .a right now pesseised by' certain
favoured towns and villages, without the ;least regard•to either size
or importance. In East Surrey, for instance, this•right is possessed .
by the 'inhabitant of 'Reigate, and refused to the inhabitants of
Croydon. , „
• I have been defeated in that endeavour; but you must allow me
to say that I consider my defeat was caused by prejudice and not by.
argument.
I have opposed the Militia Bill in every stage, bee-ousel consider
that a force raised by conscription is by no means suited to the age
eve live in, and also because it will be found to .sct as the severest
possible tax and a most cruel hardship on the working classes. I feel
confident t hat oaf pres'ent forces and warlike expenditure would, if
Properly distributed, be found amply sufficient for the defences of
the country. ' •
There is but one.'other point I. need advert to—the endowment of
the College of Maynoeth: On principle I have been always opposed
to it ; I believe it to havebeen a fatal error. It may justly be said
that if the'principle were asound one, the British empire, embracing
as it does so many religions sects and creeds, both at home and
• abroad, ought, in order to be just, to endow all. This is a principle
I. for one, am not at all prepared to assent to.

WO TUE ELECTORS OF ThE EASTERN
DIVISION OF THE COUNTY OF SURREY.

Gentlemen,
A dissolution of Parliament imposes on you the duty of electing
fit versons es your representatives in the House of Commons. Be-
lieving that I have not neglected your interests, nor Swerved from
my political principles, but that I have ever endeavoured to act
honestly and independently, I offer myself again as a candidate
for your suffrages. -
My political sentiments on all great national questions remain
unchanged, and I am proud to say that I have nothing to retract or
to modify.
1 remain a stanch supporter of Free Trade, which I have always
sincerely and heartily advocated, and lam prepared to contend
for the fullest accomplishment of a perfect system of "unfettered
gommerce."

Firmly convinced that a large measure of Parliamentary Re-
form, and a broad extension of the. Franchise, are essential to the
Well-being of the country, I have uniformly supported all the
Viotions which have been made in Parliament for that purpose.

The general agitation wh.ch prevails' on the sutject of May-
booth leads ate to observe that I voted last year against the
Parliamentary grant of money for that establishment, and that
It is my intention to support the motion for a Committee of inquiry
• into the course of education there pursued.
Considerable alterations being required in our system of taxation,
I desire a total revision of the Income-tax, a large reduction
111 the duties on the comforts and necesia ies of life, such as
beer, tea, soap, and tobacco, and all such curtailment of the
national expenditure as the national requirements render impera-
tively necessary.
Notwithstanding the dissimulation practised as to the real prin-
eiples of L ,rd Derby's Administration, the approved definition of
a PrOtectionif t !9 " a supporter of the present Government." I
Must at once, therefore, say that I am not of that party, but a
thorough Reformer, the friend of civil and religious liberty, and
opposed to the further endowment from the public purse of any
Church or sect whatever.
lam confident that it is not inconsistent with these opinions to
avow myself a true and zealous member of the Established Church.
In conclusion, I refer you to my past conduct with reference to
Your general and local interests, and express an earnest hope that,
_lf You consider that I have been faithftil to my stewardship during
rate last five years, you will again entrust me with your confidence
and continue to me that freedom of action with which I have ever
sought to the utmost of my ability to uphold the nation's honour and
40 promote the nation's advancement.
I have the honour to be, gentlemen,
Your obedient and faithful servant,

Honourable P. J. LOCKE KING and THOMAS ALCOCK, Esq.,

TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF
THE BOROUGH OF ttOUTHWARK.
Gentlemen,
Since the retirement of Mr.- Alderman Humphery from the con-
test ibr his re-election as our Representative in Parliament, upon
the dissolution about to take place, I have received a Requisition, so
numerously and influentially signed in all the Parishes •of the
Borough, that I feel it to be my duty to accept the Invitation.
I am perfectly well aware that the large share I inherit in the
Commercial Enterprize of the Borough, and the great identity of my
own and my family's Prosperity with that of the Port of London,
although ensuring some degree of zeal and information on my part
thpon the various questions constantly attendant thereon, are not of
emselves sufficient grounds for my pretensions to so great a re-
ponsibility ; indeed I know from experience that the claim based
upon
what is termed " Residence" is as nothing compared with the
qualiflcat ens that so enlightened a Censutuency, so important. too.
in its various Commercial, Manufacturing, and snippi,m interests as
that of Sou:hwark ought to find in the Services of ml ti who have
the leisure, and the influence in the House of Commons, to make
mown and to enforce, upon all requisite occasions, the views and
requirements of such a Constituency. I therefore feel that nay own
Pretensions cannot be too modestly put forward, and that I have
ranch to do before I prove how far I am worthy of the trust to which
I aspire.
I profess the utmost liberality of Political Principles that is con-
sistent with the progress of the:people in Education and Intelligence;
and my conviction has long been, that the basis upon which all Re-
form, all Retrenchment, all adjustment of the fair relative position
of every class can be attained, is, first and foremost, an Extension
of the present far too limited Suffrage.
With an Extension of the Suffrage, more simply and less vexa-
tiously secured, protected by the Ballot and shorter duration of
Parliaments, the judgment of the Electors, guided and tempered try
Education, must speedily ensure thoroughly good Government, re-
form all abases of what nature soever existing, confirm an adherence
to the great principles of Civil and Religions Liberty, make Freedom
of Trade the right instead of the precarious tenure of the People,
simplify the intricacies of our Laws, and bring home Justice with
dispatch and eeonomy to the Poor as well as to the Rich ; reduce the
necessity for the invention of onerous Taxes, and while widening
*the base, in no wise endanger, but rather add to the Stability of our
Constitution.

I abject to, and wheflever I can raise my voice or give my vote
against all future Endowments for religious purposes, I shall, I trust,
lover be found wanting ; but firmly attached to my own Church, I
feel strongly that ter interests are based, not more upon her own
interpretation of the Sacred Truths of Christianity, than in that
'benign Liberality which, while she enjoys an Endowment unprece-
dented in the History of the World, should prevent her endeavours
to deprive our Fellow-Countrymen of the Roman Catholic Persua-
sion, of that provision for the National Education of their Clergy,
which for more than half a century has received the recognition of
nearly every living Statesman, and for which the good faith of the
Country stands pledged.
I thus lay before you the Political Principles that I most sincerely
profess, and it is my intention to take every possible opportunity
freely and candidly to explain my opinions open the particular ques-
7ota suffrages in my favour. tions of the day, before I can expect you to record at the hustings
I have the honour to be, r, -
