ELECTION FOR LONDON.

For the first time in our history we have a Govern-
ment which is seeking to increase the revenue by " un-
chaining the industry of the community," and light-
eningits burdens."
The Queen has taken up her position where the mo-
narch of a free nation in such a struggle as this ought
always to be found—with the people, and has emphati-
cally asked their decision in " matters which so deeply
concern their welfare."

The great majority of the electors of the ward of
Cripplegate Without will, it is confidently believed,
manifest by their suffrages on the morning. of Tuesday
-next, and not less by the zeal and promptitude with which
they tender them, that they are not insensible to the
appeal which, on behalf of their starving fellow-country-
men, her Majesty has made to them, nor unmindful of
their own interests, as dependent on the trade and com-
merce of the united kingdom.
Never has a canvass in this ward afforded brighter
promise, and the committee, rejoice in the confidence,
that whatever inconvenience there may be to sustain,
difficulties to encounter, or apparent sacrifices to make
on the part of individual voters, it will be found that high
principle, always consistent (but especially so in this
case) with the soundest policy, will triumph over all, and
that the promises given to the Four Reform and Free
Trade 'Candidates will be all, without exception, realized.

pleasantest recollections are mixed up, will be closed for
ever. Some gentlemen of property have subscribed to
render these galas more attractive, the management of
which has been undertaken by Mr. Bunn ; and as this
will be the last opportunity the present generation ever
can have of seeing this charmiag spot, we should imagine
all the town will flock there.
The Institute of Missions in Berlin has received
tidings of the celebrated German Missionary, Gutzlaff,
dated from Pekin, the 20th of November last. At that
period he was aided in his ap
ostolic labours by seventeen
Chinese (to whom six others were shortly about to be
added), who, having learned Christianity from him, and
embraced its tenets. were serving their noviciate as mis-
sionaries. Two of his pupils, of Japan origin, were teach-
ing Christianity to their fellow-countrymen. and
