the interests of the People, the DISPA ICH has become a terror to
The upholder of abuse?, and a powerfal auxiliary on behalf of the
ohemssecl, whose wrongs will always meet with sympathy and
expostmo.

-nceuraged by teir succs, d anxious to extend tbe s; here o
their Political In uh nce andes Socianal Utility, the Proprietors have re.i

by the powerful contributions of
" PUBLICOLA," " C tUSTIC," " CENSOMIUS," ELIZA COOK,
and other writers eminently distinguished for their literary attain-
ents, and whose opinions have ever advocated the cause of the
people, in opposition to tyranny and injustice. It may also be oh-
aerved, that the POOR MAN will always receive LEGAL ADVICE
and assistance, as _heretofore, from the DISPATCH.
A haautiful New Type has been cast, on which the DISPATCH
will next year be printed.

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE \VEST-
RIDING.
Doncaster, 6th Dec., 1846.

OBNTLEMEN,—I have to apologise for the abrupt termination of
my canvassing tour, but, after having arranged to occupy every in-
tervening day in visiting the polling towns ere the Election com-
menced, a renewed attack of the gout, from which [ had scarcely
recovered when my canvass began, has confined Ise to my house,
and has forbidden my further progress.
I must throw myself upon your indulgence for whatever emis-
sions this may cause, assuring you that that the highly-flattering
reception I have everywhere met with adds greatly to my regret,
and as soon as my medical adviser permits, I hope to be found again
at my post.
The simultaneous and energetic action of the Riding, and the
concurrence of views amongst these who have hitherto been political
opponents, leave no room for doubt as te•the issue of the contest. It is
not now a struggle between political principles of Conservatives and
Whigs, but whether democratic tendencies shrouded under the garb
of opposition to all religious endowments should command the voice
of the Electors of the West Riding. To the Endowment of the
Roman Catholic Clergy any opponent and I are equally op-
posed. But whilst he deprecates the Church Establish-
ment, and all assistance from the State to Education, I
hold it of vital consequence that all existing Endowments
should be maintained, and that the State should actively pro-
mote the sound and therefore Religious Education of the People.
The West Riding, which has ever been foremost in the progress
of Constitutional Freedom, is new energetically expressing its re-
jection of the dangerous principles propounded by my opponents.
I find myself charged with inconsistency for deferring to
Charles Fitzwilliam, and now declaring I could not have voted for
him. Whilst, however, I felt and still feel it a proper act, on my
part, to have declined offering any opposition to him, or to any other
Candidate whose general political principles I believed would be ac-
ceptable to the majority of the Electors, yet it was equally defensible
that I should withhold my individual vote when I found we differed
so widely on the great question of the Endowment of the Roman
Catholic Church in Ireland.
Again, I am taunted with inconsistency, because I do not repu-
diate the minutes of the Committee of Council on Education, by
which Roman Catholics may obtain grants for their Schools, on sub-
mitting to inspection only of the secular, and not of their religious
teaching. But my opponents ought to have sufficient political expe-
rience to he aware, that whilst the Committee of Council make
grants to Church of England, Presbyterian, Wesleyan, and Dissenting
schools upon the principle of non-interference with the religi •us in-
struction imparted, the extension of grants to Roman Catholic schools
becomes unavoidable, unless such principle be altogether changed.
Anticipating the pleasure of meeting you on the Day of Nomina-
tion, I must again most warmly thank you for the gratifying pro-
gress of the contest.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your very obedient Servant,
EDMUND DENISON.

' 110 THE FREE AND INDEPENDENT
ELEC TORS of the WEST RIDING of YORKSHIRE—not
forgetting the NON-ELECTORS.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

In responding to the hint—from the refusal of ROEBUCK to work
out a manly duty at this crisis, as the song says of England's hope,
"In the good time coming, boys," (coupled with white. feathered
DENISON'S gout fear of yellow-question by Orange Club adherents,
aS motived by dandylion EARDLEY Catholic abuse—" bad lack to
'em"—at this pious moment) emboldens one, of practical utility, to
be dp and stirring in the people's behalf against a pot and kettle
Fitz-Whig-Conservatism. You may, therefore, nominate me at WAKE-
FIELD on Monday next, and God bless your laudable intentions.
Yorkists I ye shall have my hearts-core address touching my past
upright and downstraight services by land and sea, as an earnest for
future usefulness, in the LEEDS and Youx papers (if thought worthy).
In the interim, understand that the undersigned " sailor" candidate
for the male and female interests, and special protection, is a bachelor
of independent fortune, kin to tile oldest Yorkshire " traditional "
engraft, from " Ivo Talleboiz's Daughter of Lancaster de itomeley,"
in Aldborough's Ityther - Fairfax Chainberlayno—vide Burke's

" Landed Gentry." -
The person soliciting your suffrages is the " Captain" Ackerley, so
long-abused and calumniated for his unflinching scrutiny by the Lon-
don " dirty-work" press.
In conclusion of tills off-hand epistle, at the eleventh hour 1 mark
well, that the undersigned's "mission-call us interpreter of your
griefs must be considered a religious duty, no drinking, no riotous
conduct, should disgrace any rational men. Ills " six-point"
standard, the UNION-Jecx. Ills breast (plate) distinction, the win-
ter-ereen laurel of OLD IRELAND'S " tenureal fixity," for her EVER-

endowment of all religious teachers of youth—be they CATIIOLIC
or Dissenting instructors of handycraft-trade-suppert in married life
(without a " Ragged-school name" to go to bed with) since paro-
chial apprenticeship is suspended for foreign free-trading. His
motto—Equal justice to all—Like education for ch and Poor.

THE CHRISTMAS CATTLE SHOW.
TO JOIIN BULL, Esq.
A; the season of Christmas is fast drawing on,
I've a very great mind to address you, fi ietid John,
Your show of prize meat is a subject too full
To he met with a slight —is it not, Mr. Bull ?
Like yourself, Mr. John, I delight in these things.
And the many old customs which Christmas time brings.
I trust that the " show" at the noted bazaar
Will show in its prizes what Englishmen are.
No doubt you'll be proud when your roguish eye falls,
On the corpulent cattle arranged in the stalls.
it? ethinks I can see, " the head and the chief,"
Surveying your bullocks, as big as bull beef.
I warrant your warm English heart will be full,
When you cast your " sheeps' eyes" at your sheep, Mr. Bull.
And won't you feel jolly, and won't you look big,
At the porpus possessing the name of " prize pig."
But I say, Mr. Bull, I would have you to know,
That yours is by no means the only "prize show."
E. MOSES and SON, let me tell you, good sire.
Have prepared such a show as you'll greatly admire.
The " stock" (not a " live stock") is nought more or less,
Than what may he viewed as
" A StIOW OF PRIZE DRESS."
Now really, John Bull, if you know what is done,
In preparing for Christmas by MOSES and SON,
To their grand City Mart on your stick you would toddle,
And round the " Prize Dress Show" exultingly waddle.
And John (you will pardon me calling you John),
I'm sure you'd not rest till you tried something on.
TILE SHOW OF PRIZE HATS
I would have you to know,
Can never be equalled wherever you go.
Elastic and shapely, and glossy, and light,
These Hats will be found on the very first sight ;
And I'm sure your good sense will convince you that none
Can equal the Hats ofE. MOSES and SON,
Another rare sight, which I know you won't lose,
Will be found when you witness
TILE SHOW OF PRIZE SHOES.
Such prime Boots and Shoes will be certain to please,
For I know you've got taste in such matters as these.
You know pretty well how a thing should be done
And I'm sure you'll give credit to MOSES and SON.
Another attraction Illustrious " Sir,"
Refers to the ladies
A SHOW OF PRIZE FUR.
E. MOSES and SON—in their Furs smart and warm
Seem bent upon taking the ladies by storm,
Such Muffs and such Boas, and such Mantles aro there
As certainly never protected the fair.
THE SHOW OF PRIZE HOSIERY
Next let me name,
Which I cannot help praising exactly the same;
The stock, Sir, is beautiful, varied, and full,
And really without a defect, Mr. Bull.
I trust after this you'll too make one
At the l'rize Christmas Show of E. MOSES and EON.
E. MOSES and SON beg to call the attention of Emigrants to
tlieir low lists of outfits, commencing (including every necessary) at
755., lower if required. The list can be had on application, or sent
post free.
E. MOSES and SON invite especial attention to their Shooting-
coats, which possess a peculiar cut and style, adding much comfort
a the tit. E. M. and S. are convinced they will be much approved
of by the public.
