WE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF MARYLEBONE.
GENTLEMEN,
TtEl NG It'd to believe, from what I have 01)-
~ servel in the public Pagers, that yur gallant Reprcsenta-
u,e, M couseqUenee of being again acti\i'l2.• •,:nr:,,:ve:l in that str, ice
of Which he is so distinguished an ornament, is likely to retire iront
the representation of Mar, lebonej beg to announce my intention of
Soliciting your suffrages.
I believe that my political opinions are in unison with those
Of a large majority of the Constituency of the Borough. I have all
MY life been an ardent friend to civil and religious liberty. Baying
bad the honour of a seat in. Parliament during the whole of
the struggle, which attended the passing of the Reform Bill, I
was a stre,nous, though humble, supporter of that measure, and I
am now anxious that all the benefits which were expected to flow
...
`l°lll it, should be secured to the country ; and that such other im-
provements, as are likely to conduce to the general good, should be
littr°dheed. I think it is not enough to extend the franchise without
Protecti,g the voter from undue influence, and I am, therefore, pre-
pared to give my support to the Ballot, as the only means hitherto
devised for attaining that object. I think that !he duration of Par-
banient might be advantageously shortened ; I look upon our loca.
institutions as amongst the most valuable possessions of Englishmen,
and the best defences of their freedom ; and I feel that they ought
t° be guarded with vigilant care
._ I have felt indignation at the manner in which, under the Poor-
"LW as lately administered, the poor of this country have, in many
,_cases, been treated. I hope much from the new system about to be
Introduced ; I shall watch it attentively, but if it does not remove
the evils justly complained of I shall be ready to do all in my
Dower to obtain some measure more efficient for the purpose. I re •
dice that we have arrived at times when the restrictions that im •
Pedea the free action of commerce have been abolished ; and,
convinced that the rmst entire freedom of trade is sure ultimately to
Produce the greatest amount of advantage to the country at large, I
hill desirous of removing any hindrance to this object which may still
remain.

I am disposed to give a general support to the present Government,
as I believe the principles which guide it to be sound, and I look
1,130 n those who compose it as tried and steady friends of liberty,
" as men animated by the most honourable sentiments and
pecl best intentions ; but this support I shall give only so
.4),ng as I find their measures such as I could conscien-
tiously approve. Those who remember my conduct during the
,our Parliaments, when I had a seat in the House of Commons. must
19 aware how little I was ever disposed to give up to Ministers either
tnY own opinions or the interests of my constituents. These, Gen-
tlemen, are my general views. I shall be ready to give any further
es, Planation/1 whenever you may think proper to demand them, and
I shall only add, that should you elect me as your Representative, I
shall deem it my highest duty to prove myself worthy of so great an
kott our.

I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your otw,lient Servant,
DUDLEY C JUT r$ STUART.
