TO THE ELECTORS OF THE EASTERN DIVISION OF THE
COUNTY OF SURREY.

GENTLEMEN,
TN compliance with a Requisition addressed to me
_IL by upwards of 1,200 Electors, I readily declare myself a CAN-
DIDATE for the honour of representing East Surrey in Parliament ;
and it affords me the greatest satisfaction to find myself associated
with a gentleman whose principles—l hare reason to believe—arc so
much in accordance with my own.

My political opinions were made known to you in 1841, when I
declared myself an advocate for a total repeal of the corn-laws. It
was then my conviction that commercial restrictions were impolitic;
and it has been some compensation for the defeat I then experienced,
to see the principles of free trade, so soon and almost universally re-
cognised among civilised nations.
The corn-laws having been repealed, and protection to the farmers
withdrawn, justice requires that protection to others should no longer
be continued. I am therefore ready to vote for a repeal of the malt-
tax, and for the abolition or reduction of many other duties on the
comforts and necessaries of life, which press heavily on the working
classes.

I am an advocate of that gradual extension of the elective fran-
chise which the progress of knowledge is fast rendering necessary.
Of religious liberty in its full sense I am a staunch supporter. My-
self a sincere member of the Established Church, I claim for others
the same freedom of judgment which I enjoy.
Having always taken a deep interest in the subject of education,
I trust the time will shortly arrive when its inestimable blessings
will be extended to the whole community without distinction, and
on such terms that none may feel themselves conscientiously obliged
to decline its advantages.

Having property in this division of the county, and residing
amongst you, it is impossible for me not to take a deep interest in
your local affairs; and if you should confer on me the honour of
representing your interests In Parliament, be assured that I shall
strive to prove myself worthy of your confidence.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your obedient and faithful servant,
THOMAS ALCOCK.

SODA WATERS.
A AND R. THWAITES AND COMPANY,
Ix._ INVENTORS AND SOLE PREPARERS OF THE

ORIGINAL SINGLE AND DOUBLE SODA WATERS,
57, UPPER SACKVILLE STREET, DUBLIN;
ST. ALBAN'S PLACE, ST. JAMES'S, LONDON.

These waters were introduced to the notice of the public, as their
Invention, by the testimony of the Professor of Chemistry (the late
Robert Percival, M.D.), in his lectures in Trinity College, Dublin,
and from that period have continued to obtain the recommendation
of the Gentlemen of the Medical Faculty, and the approbation of
the public.

The SINGLE and DOUBLE SODA WATERS derive their names
not from the quantity of flied air which they contain, but from the
proportions of Sal Soda, which, when prepared in the PECULIAR
MANNER employed by
A. and R. I'AWAITES and Co., renders them highly useful
to the powers of digestion, improving the appetite, warming
the stomach, and stimulating the hepatic functions.
The above kinds of SODA WATER are exclusively prepared by
them, and are not manufactured by any other house in the KING-
DOM.

57, Upper SackTille-street, Dublin ;
St, Alban's-place, St. James's, London.

A NEW DISCOVERY IN TEETH.

HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 52, Fleet-
street, has introduced an ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIP-
TION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be
distinguished from the originals by the closest observer; they
never change col iur or Cecay, and wi►l be tound very superior to any
teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction
of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve
teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and
mastication; and, that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within
reach of the most economical, he has fixed his charges at the lowest
scale possible. Decayed teeth rendered sound and usef'il in mastica-
tion.-52, Fleet-street. At Home from Ten till Five.

TO TUN ES.
This lady had the following letter LADI
inserted in the "Times" newtse-
paper on Aug. 7, 1846. Reader, remember, this letter was put in
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
4. Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this ophpor-
-
tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary,
gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using itabout four months,
and the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than
I ever was before the baldness appeared.
Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s
Regenstor, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an 11 s. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
ance, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume it is far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady of respectability to the above fact,.— 3, Swan-street, Borough."
In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few
drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and
,revent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A
few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful proauct of the
inost aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
'dour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion
o the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops
n the crown of the heal; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an
OUT. In most cases relief is certain iu ten minutes. It produces
air on children's heads in a few apppllcations. It used on infants'
earls, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre-
vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See
Grimstone Highgate.
