It may be expected that I should make some allusion regarding

• .To THE ELECTORS OF WESTMINSTER.
Gentlemen,—As the election is rapidly approaching, I think
It right to put you in possession of my views with regard to certain
questions, which are deeply interesting at' the present moment.
Oil the subject of Parliamentary Reform and Free Trade, I pro-
&ably
not add to the assurances I have already given you, but
the attempt to persuade the people that their means of living would
be ineeased by lessening the amount of food to be divided amongst
't em, points out free trade in knowle ,ge (the repeal of the Paper,
,A4lvertisement, Newspaper Stamp Duties) as one of the surest
'lP‘arantees of free trade in corn.
I am in favour of absolute and unrestricted Religious Liberty and
Equality, and am, therefore, opposed to all grants for ecclesiastical
Purposes, recognising the broad principle that religion is a m ttter
'With which, as lying exclusively between God and man, Government
have no right to interfere, neither by discouragement on the one
:hand, nor by patronage on the other.
The payment of Church-rates is not only an intolerable grievance,
'to Nonconformists, but is unjust in principle, and ought to be abo-
lished without any substitute from the national purse.
Education occurs to me to be one of the few remaining questions,
'Upon which Electors are wisely solicitous to learn Candidates' views.
Considering, as I do, that the education of the people is the most
important of all the public questions of the day—knowing the
difficulties with which it is surrounded—l am prepared to support
every practicable measure for the attainment f this great object.
Allow me to add that I take a lively inttrest in the welfare of the
'Corking Classes, while I am decidedly opposed to any interference
Vilatever between the Emp'oyers and Employed ; I am nevertheless
ofopinion that the Operative should, by the removal of all Legis-
Uri ve restrictions, be enabled to elevate his condition and to carry
hls labour to the best market.

Ritspectively submitting these statements to your consideration,
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your ebedieut servant,
WILLIAM CONINGH &M.

has been marred with all kinds of violence, an indifference about the simple cure of diseases, and a passion for operations and all the excesses and horrors of surgery.''—John Bell's Surgical
Observations.—" In proof of his views he (Mr. Courtenay) has
given the history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
as any which Mr. Syme adduced, and on which he had operated.
Such are cases ix., xi., xii., and xviii. No. ix. had resisted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and V 0.9 finally
. removed in as many weeks. But cases xviii. and mix. appear, both
in duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. Syme, and yet the
treatment adopted by' Mr. Courtemay proved eminently successful."
