TO THE WORTHY AND INDEPENDENT ELEC-
TORS OF THE BOROUGH AND HUNDREDS OF
AYLESBURY.
GENTLEMEN,
THE call which you made upon me I lost no
titre in obeying, and announced myself at once a Candi-
date for your suffrages. . _ _

Although a Tory candidate had been before me in the field,
1 fiund so much spirit and energy in the Liberal party, that not
a doubt of success could exist. But upon my arrival at Ayles-
bury this morning, I found Lord NUGEST had announced
himself as a second Liberal Cardidate, and the strength, which
united would have been irresistible, endangered by division.
Lord Nugent having declared to my friends that nothing on
earth should prevt.nt his going to the Pull if I did, I had no al-
ternatve but the one I have felt it my duty to adopt. I RE-
E FROM THE CONTEST, leaving to Lord Nugent
the duty of fighting the battle waleh I should have been but too
hippy to have fought for you, and which I should hive won.
Gentlemen, from my heart I thank those who hare come for-
ward so actively in my behalf; and I beg all of you to believe,
that, if I had not deemed it my only to retire, you would have
found in me an honest and a zealous Representative, anxious
to serve you and promote your interest.
On the next occasion, coma when it may, I shall solicit
your votes.
I lia.Ye the honour to remain, Gentlemen,
You: very obedient Servant,
W. G. CAVEr4DISH.

NEWFOUNDLAND.—We subjoin a few extracts
from the speech of the Lieutenant-Governor at the open-
ing of the session :—" I am commanded to bring under
the consideration of the Legislature the intention of her
Majesty's Government to establish a steam communica-
Von between the mother country and Nova Scotia, for the
cinveyance of the mails to and from the British North
America] possessions, with a view to ascertain in what
degree Newfoundland can contribute to, or be benefited
by, such an arrangement. Transcripts of the correspond-
ence on this subject shall be sent down. It gives me
great pleasure to inform you that the President of the
London Geological Society has, at my request, recom-
mended a gentleman fully competent to undertake the
survey for which you made provision last year. This gen-
tleman, a graduate of Cambridge, to whose merits high
testimonials have been furnished by the geological pro-
fessor, has already arrived, and has entered upon his
arduous task with zeal and alacrity. I cannot deny my-
self the gratification of quoting the closing paragraph of
the Professor's letter on this occasion :—• What the sur-
vey will lead to it is impossible to judge in our present
ignorance of the structure of your island, but I cannot
help anticipating great good, both commercial and scien-
tific. In th© name of my brother geologists of England,
I offer you our best thanks for the noble example you have
set to other colonies.' ".
We hail another accession to the Liberal Press
Thursday a Paper, called the Cheltenham Examiner, was
published. We are glad to see that with other Reforms,
the repeal of the absurd and cruel Corn-laws is to have
our new-born Contemporary's warm and frequent advocacy.

LORD DURHAM'S REPORT IN

AMERICA,

A multitude of American and Canadian newspapers
have come to us by the Great Western. They abound
in extracts and notices of Lord Durham's Report, which
seems to have produced a great sensation in that part of
the world. Many papers reprint the whole Report by
instalments ; and there are advertisements of several re-
prints in the pamphlet form. We extract two notices
from leading Canadian papers of opposite politics :
" It is not too much to say that Lord Durham's Report
will satisfy all parties in the province who arc honestly
desirous of good government in connection with Great
Britain. These parties must and will unite in support of
his Lordship ; and the interested official clique and the
determined Republican separaratists (if such there be)
will be left in a miserable minority."—Turonto Exa-
miner, a Radical Reformer.
We believe this Report will be considered by all as
the most luminous, comprehensive, and best arranged
document on the affairs of the colonies which has ever
been submitted to the British Parliament ; and by going
to the bottom of our difficulties, Ministerial ignorance
and blundering, it will work far more efficient reforms
than have ever been previously hoped for."—Montreal
Herald, a High Tory Loyalist.

EAST INDIES.

By an overland mail from India, which arrived in London
on the 10th instant, we have received Calcutta papers ty
the 14th, and Bombay papers to the 24th of March. The t
are much occupied with " camp news" from the Indus, bu
include no military movement of importance, Of the ad-
vanced force at Shikarpore, under Shah Soojah, the ope-
rations were mainly directed by himself, and characterised
by much prudence and decision. Sir Henry Farm has ac-
cepted the command at Bombay, and the army of the Indus
will be commanded by Sir J. Keane. An iron steam-boat has
passed up the river to a considerable distance beyond Hyder-
abad. The progress of the army in general appears to be slow
and difficult, and attended with great privations. The main
body has arrived at Luckee, 60 miles from Hyderabad, but
met with no opposition save that of the country and cli-
mate. These accounts conic down to the 28th of Feb-
ruary, and at that time the disposition of the Ameers of
Sinde continued to be friendly. The bridge of boats at
Bukhur gave way on the sth of Feb. by which several
camels only were lost. Lord Auckland left Delhi on the
21st of February for Kurnaul and Simla, and General
Scott has quitted to join the army. From Burmah we
learn that internal troubles prevent Tharawaddie from act-
ing against the English, as many expected he was prepared
to do. On the 25th of January, 4,000 men declared in favour
of Tse- Kya- Meng,: whom they wished to enthrone. Thara-
waddie's troops drove them into a jungle,after capturing some
valuable trophies, viz. " a pair of slippers—a velvet mattress
—and a parabark, or Burmese black book, containing the
general orders of the young rebel chief." Tharawaddie
says the English fomented the rebellion, especially those
of 11. M. S. Favourite, and he intends to crucify his
prisoners, some of whom he has already hamstrung.—
In February, three attempts were made to fire Ran-
goon, and much discontent and excitement prevailed
there.—Letters from Suddeah, Upper Assam, mention
that the adjacent English station was attacked before day-
light on the 28th of January, by six or seven hundred
Kamptces, who fired the sheds and cut down or speared every
man, woman, and child, they met with. Captain Hanway,
Lieut. Marshal, and a few sepoys, with a 6-pounder and a
12 pound carronade, ultimately drove them off, and burnt
Suddeah and three or four other villages, with the tempo-
rary loss to the service of Lieut.-Col. White, who received
were r 3 e
children,

nine spear and four dagger wounds, 1 soobadar major, 1
naick, 1 bugler, and 25 sepoys,
dohewesh,
who
an
wounded ; 6 men, 8 women, 2
killed at the station, and many others dreadfully maimed.
Lieut. Marshal was attacked by three of the enemy at once,
one of whom he shot, then cut down a second, and put the
third to flight.—Sunday Paper.

CRIMINAL COURT-(THIS DAY)

A man was sentenced to seven years' transportation W'
stealing gas fittings from a Wesleyan Chapel.
A boy was indicted for stealing from a Coffeehouse a
box of Temperance Medalc, but was acquitted on a chg.
ritable doubt if he had a felonious intention to steal snob $
large number. The medals were exceedingly handsome)
and bore very much the appearance of a Duke's star.
Julia Dunbar was indicted for stealing a watch, chair;
seal, key, and IL l2a. in money, from a man named Hag!'
and Laurence 111.' Carthy was indicted for receiving We
same knowing them to have been stolen. The robber_
was committed in an improper house, when the prosecutr
having gone to bed was roused by a policeman at an earl
hour in the morning, and found his property gone. bad
A Swede, who had also been sleeping in the house, %e
been the means of detecting the robbery ; observing ,e
female prisoner going out his suspicions were excited, be
called for the police, she was secured and the watch Watt
upon her, the key and seal being discovered on the Pers°.
of Al' Carthy, whose (I,.•fence was that he had been drim'
ing, and was not aware of the way in which he beele
possessed of the articles, and the policeman stated thane.
was " three parts drunk," which was inferred by the
corder to mean " rather the worse for liquor." wee
The RECORDER, in charging the jury, said the cv" the
against the female prisoner appeared conclusive, but at
same time remarked that unfortunats women in her
dition were not always dishonest; but that, on the co
trary, there are many striking instances of honesty 03.ri,),
them. With respect to M.Carthy, there was a doubt
received it with guilt knowledge.
The Jury found thy e female guilty ; but acquitted the
other prisoner,
The RECORDER then addressing M'Carthy told him that
he had escaped by the charity of the Jury, and that late
should take warning of the ill consequences of
n
hours, bad company, and drinking. The female prig° ►,en
—there being no probability of her returning to to
honest course of livelihood in the country, was sentencecuar.
seven years' transportation. The unhappy woman Was
ried from the bar in strong convulsions. told
The RECORDER ordered Hogg to stand up, an- e
him that no expenses should be allowed him, but tbieise
which the law expressly gave, as he had brought csPf;t
upon the county by his own misconduct. The co;lvo
however, though it could never sanction immorality,

ciation in which the Swede was found, to award him! the

Letters and papers from Sydney, to the 30th of No-

of heavy showers, had assumed.# promising aspect; and,
in consequence of good pasture, the sheep were looking
well, and the lambing, notwithstanding the rains, was
excellent.
The disease which had committed ravages amongst the

MR. GEORGE ROBINS will have the
pleasure to SELL by AUCTION, by direction of the Re-
presentative of the kW

JAMES DOVER, Esq., deceased,

at the Mart, London, on THURSDAY, June 6, at Twelve o'clock
in One Lot, without a limit,
AN ELEGANT MARINE VILLA,
well known, and long admired as
BOSCOMB LODGE.

It formerly had the benefit of all the acknowledged taste of Robert
Heathcote, Esq. ; it has sub. equently been improved by the late pos.
sessor (it may be well to state that it needs a little embellishment
in the minor departments, which has been neglected during a long
illness). Its outward form does not claim to be in accordance with
any particular order of architecture, but it puts in an irresistible
claim to comfort and good taste. There is a handsome Lodge
on the turnpike.toad leading to

FREEHOLD FARM of SUPERIOR LAND, and an Excellent
WATER MILL, near to BASINGSTOKE.
Their ANNUAL VALUE 400 GUINEAS.
By Mr. GEORGE ROBINS,
At the Auction Mart, on, THURSDAY, the 6th of June, at
Twelve o'clock, in Two Lots,
A CAPITAL FREEHOLD FARM,
called DEAN'S LAND. It consists of

A SUPERIOR FARM HOUSE and
ONE HUNDRED and TWO ACRES of REMARKABLY

GOOD LAND;
pleasantly situate only one mile from the high London road, four
from Basingstoke, and within five miles of
THE SOUTHAMPTON RAILWAY STATION.
The Farm includes some of the best Land in the Country—tlve
quarters of wheat per Acre is the constant average, and it is known
that in most land this would wear eut the soil; it appears in this
case it will not tire, and the present crops look most enoouragiwg.
IT IS A SINGULARLY COMPACT ESTATE,
with the comfortable abode placed in the very centre.
THE WATER CORN MILL,
carrying three pair of Stones, is in •iew. It has a residence that
recals to our recollection the famed one recorded in history
of the

JOLLY MILLER, who LIVED on the "RIVER DEE ;"
it is full of comfort. The Mill has four floors, and the supply
of water is never.failing. Twenty loads of wheat is a fair are•
rage of its capability, to grind weekly.

A TROUT STREAM PASSES THROUGH
the Estate, and occasionally lends its refreshing aid in irrigating
the adjacent pastures. This Mill is sadly underlet at One Hundred
Pounds a year, being worth at least Two Hundred Guineas, and
the Farm would readily let at 200 guineas a.year more. The ♦alue
of the Estate may be moderately estimated at
London, England, 1839-05-14

FOUR HUNDRED GUINEAS A YEAR.

The Poor-rate and Tithe are both very low.
The Mill will form a separate Lot from the Farm. The Pro.
perty is altogether unusually desirable, either for permanent occu-
pation, or investment. It can be seen by a Particular of Sale,
which will have a Plan annexed, twenty-one days before the sale.
To be had at the Crown, Basingstoke ; the Hotel, Hartford Bridge;
King's Arms, Bagshot ; of Messrs. Raniall and Eldridge, Soli-
citors, Southampton ; at the Mart; and in Covent Garden.

THE CRISIS.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
The courage of the Queen having rescued the
country from the fangs of Toryism, and restored a
Liberal Ministry, the serious question arises, how they
can exist ?

It will not be disputed that, united and energetic, the
Reformers are more than a match for the Tories.
Disunion and damped hopes have produced their pre-
sent weakness. No Liberal Ministry can expect to
exist for a month which does not take instant and
decisive measures to restore the union and rekindle the
energies of the people.
This cannot now be done by an empty cry of " the
Queen !" That has been raised once before, and
nothing came of it—the people will not be caught by it
again. They want measures ;—they can be roused only
by some present prospect of practical good. The Queen's
name by itself would carry no weight, but let it resound
through the country in connection with a series of popu-
lar reforms, and it would be omnipotent.
It appears to us, then, that only by some such policy
as the following, can the Liberal forces be sufficiently
re-animated to maintain a Liberal Government in ac-
cordance with the patriotic wishes of the Sovereign.
The finality members of the Cabinet must retire and
give place to some proved advocates of progressive Re-
form. This done a series of popular measures should
be laid on the table of the present Parliament. Among
them should be the Ballot, an Extension of the Suffrage,
a Penny Postage, Church Reform, and Law Reform.
The new Ministry should candidly avow that they
have little hope of carrying them through the
present Parliament, but that they desired to
give the opportunity. They should declare that such
are their measures that they desire a full
discussion of them in the House and in the country,
that a division should be taken on each of them, so
that every Member may have an opportunity of making
known his views to his constituents. That if rejected,
they should appeal to the country, whether it was will-
ing to accept those measures ; by the answer returned by
the country they would abide. If the country, thus
fairly tried upon specific measures, should declare in their
favour, they should use the necessary means to make
these measures law. If on the contrary, the country
should reject those measures, they should bow to its
decision, and resign their trust to the proper hands for
conducting the Government of a Tory people.
We have little doubt that a frank and manly pro-
ceeding of this sort would receive the support it deserves.
Even if it should fail at first, a party would be formed,
powerful enough as an opposition, to prevent any ex-
cesses of Tory tyranny, and prepared to take the
Government whenever public intelligence shall be
sufficiently advanced to call upon them to do so.

A CHARMING FREEHOLD VILLA
and GROUNDS, delightfully situate, skirting the Town
of Staines, on the road to

WINDSOR AND HAMPTON COURT,
partaking in a few moments of all the gaiety and bustle of the
town, with retirement enough for

ZIMMERMAN TO DELIGHT IN.
KNOWLES GREEN VILLA
IS IN THE GOTHIC ORDER,
and the Architect has displayed considerable taste in tire
admixture of novelty and comfort that is everywhere conspicuous.
It has very lately been put into the most perfect order for
instant enjoyment, and offers a most tempting kijou to a
family with limited means to locate in a most delightful
vicinage. A Lady of good taste will find it difficult to
resist the first impression which accompanies her entree to this
little Elysium. There arc two elegant conservatories, not merely
to adorn the abode and give effect to the grounds, but are produe.
tire, beyond measure, of grapes of the finest order. The offices
throughout this domicile, and including those in the court-yard,
are sufficient fur every purpose. The extensive gardens, sur-
rounded by lofty brick walls, are prolific in vegetation, and the walls
a source of considerable annual revenue; and if a purchaser be de-
sirious of increasing his "ways and means," lie may let a porn on
of the superfluous grounds running parallel with the high road,
and gain a considerable rent. There is capital
FISHING IN' THE COLNE AND RIVER THAMES,
and two packs of hounds close at hand. In the orchard is a fish-
pond well stored, in fact, within this little sphere, will be found
every thing that one, fastidiously disposed, can imagine.

RATIFICATION OF THE FRENCH

AND MEXICAN TREATY.

(From the New Orleans Bulletin, April 10.)
By the arrival of the steam-ship Meteor, from Vera
Cruz, which place she left on the 2d inst., we have re-
ceived information of the ratification of the treaty by the
Mexican government. The subjoined documents explain
so fully all the circumstances of the case, as to render
comment unnecessary.
Extract from a letter, dated
" Vera Cruz, April 2, 1839.
" All the difficulties between France and Mexico have
been terminated to mutual satisfaction. The conduct of
Admiral Baudin during the whole course of hostilities has
been highly praiseworthy, and in the negotiations, while
advancing the interests of France, he treated the Mexican
Government with the utmost deference, and spared it even
the shadow of any humiliation that might wound her amour
propre.
" Vera Cruz has resumed its activity. The confidence
of the inhabitants in Admiral Baudin is such, that the
debates in Congress having made them fear for a while
that the treaty concluded by the plenipotentiaries at Vera
Cruz would not be entirely ratified, they were all deter-
mined to hoist the French flag, and place themselves under
the protection of the Admiral. The ratification arrived.
however, at last, on the 25th. It was full and satisfactory,
" An imposing ceremony took place on the 27th for the
funeral services of the French who had died during the
expedition."

An EXCELLENT PLEASURE FARM, with SUNDRY IN_
CLOSURES, altogether about TWO HUNDRED ACRES,
on the LINE of the SOUTHAMPTON RAILWAY, and close
to a Station, near to BLACKWATER and BASINGSTOKE.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is instructed to
OFFER to SALE, by PUBLIC AUCTION, at the
Mart, London, on THURSDAY, the 6th of June, at Twelve o'Clock,
by direction of the Executors of the late Mr. George Sex,
" A DELIGHTFUL PLEASURE FARM," with an abode
suited precisely to meet the views of a respectable retiring man of
business; it is equal to

A FREEHOLD TENURE,
being copyhold, with a nominal fine only ; it is known as

THE TRUNK FARM,

and is surrounded by
TWO HUNDRED ACRES OF LAND,
which does not pretend to the first quality, although by means of
agricultural knowledge it will yield excellent wheat, barley, and tur_
nips, besides productive meadow land, with a stream to lend its occa-
sional aid, and there are some acres of admirable peat land attached.
which areexceedingly valuable.

The abode is delizhtfully placed near to the road, with the Rail.
way passing close by, and a station at hand. The buildings are
abundantly sufficient, enclosed in sheltered farm yards, with gardens
exceedingly productive, around the dwelling; in fact a person of
moderate means will live in clover at the Trunk farm. Hawley is
close by, Blackwater and the College at hand, and within a ride of
" ONE HOUR AND TWENTY MINUTES OF LONDON."
Either as an investment or residence; it offers many temptations,
and there are many inviting situations to build upon, parallel with
the road, and close to

rte —and,as a Conservative Nobleman in this neigh-
bour;!o el desired it might, " the despicable thing has
c aw:cd on 4o its end ;" and has become so truly
...Hrosome, *hat no man is willing to be suspected of.
nornm:sserating, the fallen. Perhaps a more unprin-
ar politically more abandoned knot of
rpver presided at the head of the
buoecilz of any nation, than the Whig-Radi-
cals ander the dictatorship of Mr. Daniel O'Con-
nell. But the men were worthy of their master,
their measures, such as might be expected
from *man whose every act has been one of self-degra-
dati.4ll. Men who could enter office under fraudulent
prE!enoes—who could make the " appropriation prin-
cio',;" the grand pegasus upon which to ride into place
aid patronage—who could make a feint as though it
were to prove how hollow had been their pretensions about
irelond, and who could, after all resist the very principle
a Lich formed the key-stone of their Government, left
nothing in the way of degradation for their bitterest
coamies to wish. Every step, since their abominable
trickery on the appropriation clause, has been a step
lownwards, until each had learned to despise and doubt
niroself, and, as a necessary consequence of such poli-
ti,nl immorality, they had agreed to doubt and despise
another.—Slieffield Mercury.
We do regret and imagine that on cool reflection
the Radicals referred to will regret, that in the case
of the Jaknaica question they should have preferred
..tit; shadow of liberty to the substance, have refrained
from correcting the abuses of an intollerent and des-
potic oligarchy simply because that oligarchy was called
a constitution, and at the same time have acted
counter to their own glorious work, as far as the
rights and interests of the negro were secured by the
j spirit, if not by the letter, of the Emancipation Act.
For the five Tories, who, to preserve their consistency,
voted with the friends of the negro on this ques-
. ti'm, we entertain a deep respect. Would that
their number had been larger or less needed !--

The very moment when we were preparing to congratu-
tate Our

I and d

suddenly clouded over, and the safety of the Empire

her entire confidence to the only Statesman possessing
moral courage
ho"esty, or ability, to bear up against
the exigencies of so eventful a crisis.—Salisbury and
