TO THE ELECTORS OF THE EASTERN DIVISION OF THE
COUNTY OF SURREY.
Glxvimurst,
N compliance with a Requisition addressed to me
by upwards of 1,200 Electors, I readily declare myself a CAN-
"'DATE 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 have reason to believe—are so
touch in accordance with my own.
. 31Y political opinions were made known to you in 1841, when I
aeclared 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The corn-laws having been repealed, and protection to the farmers
withdrawn, justice requires that protection to others should no longer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.
k lam 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.
Raving always taken a de interest in the subject of education,
I trust the time will shortly arriveep when its inestimable blessings
will be extended to the whole community without distinction, and*
Site_ 21 terms that none may feel themselves conscientiously obliged
,t; its advantages.
*sing property in this division of the county, and residing
t you. it is impossible for me not to take a deep interest in
local affairs; and if you should confer on me the honour of
ese• stn. to
year interests in Parliament, be assured that I shall
19 Prove myself worthy of your confidence.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your obedient and faithful servant, •

iro THE LONDON STONE.
Hail ! curious relic of the olden time.
Thy Stone shall form the subject of a ditty ;
For thou deserv'st a tributary rhyme
As much as any thing in London's City.
Ahl could'st thou speak, thou venerable Stone,
What tales thou could'st unfold of distant ages ;
For thou was fara'd before Saint ?ant's was known,
And London thou hast seen in all It i•a.zes.
Say, ancient Stone, was ever London'.. scene
Equal at all to what it now discloses ?
And has the City's traffic ever been
Distinguish'i by a House like that of MOSES' ?
And all the ages thou hest seen elapse
Have shown to MOSES' giant Mart no equal ;
MOSES and SON stand highest—and, perhaps,
They ever will do, did we know the sequel.
What diff'rent styles and fashions bast thou known
During a thousand years, or even longer ;
Bat say, was ever Dress like MOSES' .hown—
Were ever Garments smarter made, or stronger
NO, antique Stone ! there never was a day
, When fashion ehow'd us what she now discloses;
And (could'st thou speak) in justice thou would'st say,
I never saw such Dress as that of MOSES'.
