TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST INDIA STOCK.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
IHAVE the honour to intimate to you that the
General Election of Six Directors of the East India Company is
fixed for Wednesday, the 13th of April, and that Mr. D. C. Majori-
banks and myself are candidates to fill the vacancy occasioned by
the death of the late lamented General. Caulfield.
I consider, in reference to the recent discussions in Parliament and
the public prints, that it is right, in justice both to myself and the
Proprietors, to remind you that my claims to the honour of your
suffrages are grounded upon my public services in India, where,
during a period of twenty-eight years, I filled various important
civil offices, and an anxious desire to devote the local knowledge
and experience I there acquired, more particularly in the revenue
and financial departments, to the benefit of a country in which I
spent the best part of my life, and to which I must ever feel warmly
attached.
My testimonials. a copy of which has been furnished to every pro-
prietor, will have shown you that my services received the approba-
tion of the several high official authorities under whom I served,
and that I quitted Madras with expressions of regret, and other more
substantial marks of respect and esteem from all branches of the
community, both European and native.
I am thantiftil to say the promises of support which I have received
render me confident of success; and I can assure you, should my
anticipations be happily realised by my election on the 13th proximo,
that my best energies shall be devoted to evince my grateful sense of
the high honour conferred upon me. In conclusion, I beg to intimate
that my Committee will adjourn to the London Tavern on Monday,
the 4th of April, where the attendance of my friends is earnestly so-
licited, and where it is requested that all changes of address may be
notified; and respectfully soliciting the support of those Proprietors
who have not yet declared themselves,

I have the honour to be, •
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
Your most obedient servant,
JOHN CARNAC MORRIS,
Late of the Madrass Civil Service.
Committee Room, 136, Leadenhall-street, 22d March, 1853.

I beg to annex the numbers of the unsuccessful candidates at the
