GENERAL ELECTION.

To the FREEHOLDERS of the COUNTY of YORK,
Residing in and near LON ,),N.
THE FREEHOLDERS of the COUNTY of
YORK, Friends to the Hon. HENRY LASCELLES,
are earnestly requested to send their Names and Address to
his House in Hanover-square.

To the INDEPENDENT ELECTORS of PRLSroN.

CENTLEME.I4;
IT is with the utmost regret that I consider rny-
self under the -neeessity of withdrawing froth the pre-
sent contest my reasons. for doing so you have hot.more
right to expec.l than I anxious to give, and 1 will state
them frankly and briefly. They are, •
My' arrival- here more than a day atter the commencement
of the Elettini—your uncertainty as to my offering myself a
Candidate—the numerous promises strongly solicited in the.
mean time, and obtained, by my opponents—the infamous
colulud of those who have dismissed a considerable number -
of able and industrials Workmen,- tiit independently
,giving'
their votes, and the threats of dismissal to those w ho thought
it their duty and interest to 26.1 like Men, and contrary to the
party wish of their Employers.
-Atter having stated these vounds for believing that I can-
not now.obtain what will ever be the highest objscd of my •
-ambition, I do'not scruple to assert, that had I canvassed
poor to the EleCtion, my suceess'would.have been beyond a
doubt ; indeed, .the state of -my Poll fully sanCtions the
assertion, and the public voice and the public feeling prove
the honourable fad ; and, unless l ant very much mistaken,
there is not a man in the Borough of Preston who is not con-
-winced that if the present system of returning Representatives
for this Town be continued, and in any way approved, to
speak of your,Elettive Franchise you must coibider an in-
sult, for the Person who has the most extensive manufac-
tory will be sent to Parliament, whatever good grounds of
objeCtion there may be to his politics, Ins integrity, or • his
ability. -
1 ant not defeated, although I withdraw from this Ele4tion.
Your kindness exceeds all description, and, I assure you„ it
is impossible to find words sufficiently expressive of my
Gratitude.
If l am in existenct at the next Election, 1 will request,
what I am persuaded it will be your pleasure to grant, yOUT
-zealous and steady support.
Believe me, Gentlemen,
Your must faithful and obedient Servant,
JOSEPH HANSON.

A DICTIONARY.OI ARTS and SCIENCES in acorn.
pendious foim, sufficiently copious without being prolix, ac.
curate but not diffuse, divested of all superfluous matter,
compressing rather titan copying what has been done by
others, and exhibiting a clear but concise view of the present
state of the various Branches of Human Knowledge, has long
been a most desirable object to the English Reader and Stu-
dent. .•
The following are the immediate Advantages which are
proinised' to the Purchasers of this Work.
-• First, It exhibits a Compendium of all Human Know-
ledge, the more luminous because cleared of all extraneous
'natter; practical rather than speculative; and particular at.
tention has been paid hilt to the most useful Branches.
-• Second, It is of a convenient and comparatively portable
Siz4 calculated to lie on the table of every Studious Person,
as a Book oCconStant reference. The retrenchment of army
superfluous and useless Articles which have latterly found
their way into Books of this description, has caused a consi-
derable keduaion in 'point of Size, without impairing the in-
trinsic Value arid general Utility of the Work.
Third, It is printed so as to correspond with the Quarto
'Editions of Johnson's Dietionary ; and the Possessors of both
Works thus have, in four Quarto Volumes, and at a moderate
Expence, all the literary aid which the English Student or
header can require. •
Fourth, The Work is neatly printed on a new and elegant
Type, on superfine yellow wove Paper. The Copper-Plates
have been engraved chiefly from Original. Drawings, by the
first Artists, ..and are Equal to any Plates ever given to the
Public in a, Work of this nature.
