LONDON, MONDAY EVENIN

TO THE ELECTORS OF TILE CITY OF LONDON.

GENTLEMEN,
T HAVE been invited by a large number of my
1 fellow Citizens to become a Candidate for the representation
of the City in Parliament, at the ensuing Election, and I respect-
fully announce to yon my intention to solicit your suffrages so soon
as Parliament shall be dissolved. _ . .

Having spent the whole of my life in active pursuits, both official
and commercial, within the Cities of London and Westminster, my
character and my opinions upon the great political subjects which
have for some years bean ti,:der public discussion, are too well known
to require explanation. I profess a firm adherence to those opinions
and a determination to act upon them, whenever occasion Shall
require.
I shall, at the same time, be always ready to unite with men of
all parties in endeavouring to effect such improvements in our
social institutions, ❑s may be considered likely to tend to the pre-
serration of our admirable Constitution in Church and State, and
the bettering the condition of the people.
Being an Alderman of the Corporation of London, if it should be
your i..zasure to honour me with your confidence, I shall have an
additional satisfaction in seeing a revival of the period when it was
the custom that the representation of the City, should include one
or more of that body.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your most obedient servant,
JOHN JOHNSON.
London, May 14, 1847.

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF MARYLEBONE
GENTL,MEN AND BROTHER ELECTORS,
MANY of your body having invited me to an-
nounce myself as a CANDIDATE for the Representation of
the Boresgh, I hesitate to take any step whatever till the feelings of
the Electors shall be known—whether, notwithstanding Sir Charles
Napier's present position, it is their intention again to support him.
As probably a few days will determine this question, I shall act
most in accordance with my own feelings (especially as I acted as
Chairman of his Committee at the last Election) to respectfully wait
that decision.
I have the honour to be,
Gentlemen and Brother Electors,
Your faithful servant,
JOHN BAG-SHIITE.

A—LIVELY LAY for the DERBY DAY.
Oh, my muse awakes, for the pending stakes
Have tempted her to sing,
A lively lay for the Derby Day,
That glorious day of spring.
What crowds will resort to the scene of the sport,
To gaze on the Epsom course,
And, oh, how the start" will thrill through each heart,
While the eye swiftly fellows each horse.
That day, with its ride," at once must decide
Ilow hundreds of thousands will fare,
Importance is in it, and one single minute
• Must apportion to each one his share.
Hurrah for the course, and hurrah for each horse,
May the Derby be worthily won,
And may all who obtain, improve whit they gain,
By visiting MOSES and SON.
Their's, their's le the mart for a snit that is smart,
And a suit that is tit for the sport;
And the grand Derby day, on the eighteenth of May,
Will show you what dresses are bought.
Ev'ry race that is run speaks of 'MOSES and SON,
And a proof of their merit discloses,
And the grand Derby day will proudly display
The trading achievements of MOSES.

EXETER-HALL. A LECTURE on the
BOSJIEMAN RACE (Pigmies) of SOUTHERN AFRICA,
unquestionably the most extraordinary race of mankind, as well
physically as intellectually, will he DELIVERED Tots EVENING,
at Eight r.m., by ROBERT KNOX, M.D., F.R.S.E., Corresponding
Member of the Academie Royale de Medecine, and Lecturer on
Anatomy and Physiology.
This Lecture is particularly addressed to those interested in the
exciting events new going on In South-Eastern Africa, in the Kalltr
War, in the great question of race, and the probable extinction of the
Aberightal races, the progress of the Anglo-African Empire, and the
all-important questions of Christian mission, and human civilization
in that quarter of the globe. In illastration of the Lecture, Dr.
Knox wilt introduce to the notice of the physiologist and man of
science Five Itosliemans, or Bush people—two males, two females
and infant, the only specimens of this singular race of human beings
that ever ♦isited Europe.
Admission: reserved scats and platform, 2s. 6d. ; body of the hall
and west gallery, Is. Entrance to the platform and reserved seats
from the Strand; to the body of the hall and west gallery from
Exeter-street. Tickets may be had of Mr. Renshaw, Medical Book-
seller, 356, Strand; the Medical Times Office, Essex-street; and at
the usual places.

rHE MOST EXTRAORDINARY EX[IIBI-
-11 of ABORIGINES EVER SEEN in EUROPE, landed
in Liverpool by the brig Fanny, Captain Wheeler, and will be
EXHIBITED, for the first time, at the EGYPTIAN HALL, Pic-
cadilly, early in the ensuing week.
SOUTH AFRICAN ABORIGISES%—TWO MEN, TWO WOMEN,
and A BABY, of the BOSJIEMAN or Busii TRIBE, from the
interior of South Africa, a race that, from their wild habits, could
never before be induced to visit a place of civilization. This oppor-
tunity of gratifying the man of science and the student in zoology
has only been obtained by great personal exertion on the part of the
gentlemen who have brought them to Enland, at an immense outlay
of capital. On the passage to Europe a baby was horn at sea, thus
adding to the great interest that must be excited by their appearance.
(From Moffatt, the Missionary's Work on Southern Africa, page 53.)
" Poor Bushman ! Thy hand has been against every one, and
every one's hand against thee. For generations past they have been
hunted like partridges in the mountains. Deprived of what nature
had made their awn, they became desperate, wild, fierce, and indo-
mitable in their habits. Hunger compels them to feed upon every-
thing edible. Ixias, wild garlic, mysembry anthantams, the core of
aloes, guns of acarias, aid other plants and berries, some of which
are extremely unwholesome, constitute their fruits; whilst almost
every kind of living creature is eagerly devoured, lizards, locusts
and grasshoppers not excepted. The poisonous as well as iIIIIOXiOUS
serpents they roast and eat. They carefully extract their bags or
reservoirs of poison, with which they cover the points of their
arrows."
For particulars of the habits and disposition of the Bosjiemans,
see Professor Leichtenstelifs Barchells, Campbell, Backhouse,
Methunes, and Ntotiatt's Travels in South Africa, and the works of
Dr. Knox, on the Variety of the Human Race.

THE ATRAPILA.TORY, OR LIQUID HAIR DYE—the
only dye that really answers for all colours, and does not
require re-doing but as the hair grows, as it never fades or
acquires that unnatural red or purple tint common to all
other dyes. Ross and Sons can, with the greatest confidence,
recommend the above dye as infallible, if done at their esta-
blishment; and ladies and gentlemen requiring it, arc re-
quested to bring a friend or servant with them to see how it
is used, which will enable them to do it afterwards without
the chance of failure. Several private apartments devoted
entirely to the above purpose, and some of their establish-
ment having used it, the effect produced can be at once seen.
They think it necessary to add, that by attending strictly to
the instructions given with each bottle of dye, numerous
persons have succeeded equally well without coming to them.
Address Ross and Sons, 119, and 120, Bishopsgate-street, the
celebrated Perruquiers, Perfumers, Hair-cutters, and Hair-
dyers.—N.B. Parties attended at their own residence, what-
ever the distance.

Ibtorsv, By HOLLOWAT'S PILLS.—At Wootton, near Bedford, re-
sides INIr. John Robinson, sen., an opulent farmer, who some time
age, was in a most dangerous state, from dropsy, being nearly double
his ordinary size. He was given over by his medical attendants, and
was, at the time, not expected to live three days ; yet from this
hopeless state he was cured by taking Holloway's Pills. This gen-
tleman is well known in all the market towns of the county. The
wonders that this fine medicine does in all cases of dropsy is truly sur-
prising, and those who are labouring under this dreadful complaint
should certainly try this remedy. Sold by all druggists, and at Pro-
fessor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London.

EPSOM RACES.

EPSOM, SATURDAY Nrcir.—The entries having taken
place this afternoon, we at enabled to submit a full pro-
gramme of the four days' egagements, from which, and
the numerous list of arrivs given underneath, we are
entitled to anticipate a •apital meeting. Active pre-
parations are in progress o the course, which is agreed to
on all hands is in the bespossible condition for running.
The " pull up," as we sta'd a day or two since, has been
vastly improved by the reaoval of a portion of the paling
of Sir Gilbert Ileathcot's paddock, as the horses in
future, instead of runnit; towards and perhaps into the
town, at the imminent rk of collision with some of the
carriages invariably colleted in this neighbourhood, will
take a gentle curve to to left, and will be pulled up in
the paddock. The grad stand has undergone several
improvements. Amorist them is the erection of a
gallery at the end nar the winning chair, for the
use of the stewards this will afford an excellent
view of the races, and will, we trust, lead to
the demolition of the ntiquated, worm-eaten edifice on
the opposite side of th course, so many years used as a
weighing stand, it hs long ceased to be either useful
or ornamental. The luties of the course will be en-
trusted to the same idividuals who officiated last year,
Mr. Clark being engaged as judge, Mr. Hibberd as
starter, Mr. Manning as clerk of the scales, and Mr.
Starling as clerk of th course. Mr. Lumley will have
the management of tie refreshment rooms, in which he
made a very satisfatory delnit at the Spring Meeting;
we have reason to beieve that the tariff of prices will be
on a moderate scale. the Epsom Branch of the Brighton
line has been opened some days, and as it has hitherto
proved particularly 'slow," we trust it will also be found
"sure." The South-Western also offers great facilities,
and as the means of a•-comrnodation on the new line have
not yet been very satsfactorily tested, we have no doubt
