WEST RIDING ELECTION.

TO the ELECTORS of the WEST RIDING
of YORKSHIRE.
Leeds, December 4, 1848.

Gentlemen.--I should not have addressed you again so soon
merely to report progress. My friends deem the result of our first
week's proceedings highly satisfac'ory, but I have such important
communications to make to you on matters of principle that I will
not waste your time by anticipating the poll. My object is to de-
serve success, even more than to obtain it.
Imputations of rancour towards Roman Catholics were made
against me at the beginning of the contest. No on 3 has at-
tempted to substantiate this imputation at any of the meet-
ings which I have attended. With my controversies on
purely religious topics, Electors feel they have no , con-
cern. The only question with them is, have I ever proposed,
abetted, or contemplated injustice to any class of religionists ? If so,
let it be proved. lam ready to demonstrate that I have used no
arguments about the contemplated endowment of the Roman Catho-
lic priests which they would not be perfectly welcome, if our position
was reversed, to use against me.. Henceforward, if men of honour
think lit to assail me on this point in my absence, I am sure they
will have the manliness to try to substantiate it in my presence. I
am ready to meet-them; in fair argument, on the day 'of nomina-
tion. I only ask to receive beforehand a written statement of the
imputation against me, and of the facts by which it is thought to be
sustained. • -

Failing such proef, I call upon all friends of Civil an,l Religious
Liberty to support me. I call on them. to be as true to their princi-
ples as my opponent is to his, Mr: Denison, at Halifax, on Satur-
day, declared that he should, .upon principle, have voted against Mr.
Fitzwilliam, as an advocate of the, endowment of the Irish priests.
Liberals of all classes and of religions, he not outdone by a Con-
servative in fidelity to your convictions. Yon desire equality for all
religions, and that is my desire ;too. I will not be a party to en-,
dow the Roman Catholic church, neither will I consent, to pay out
of the public parse additional Colonial Bishops of the Church of
England., '
Mr. Denison said on Saturday, that he concurred in a system
of National Education based upon rligion, but that he disap-
proved aiding the Roman Catholic schools, unless on condition
that the religion taught their should not be the religion of their
own teachers I I can only express my astonishment at such a de-
claration.

On the broad ground, then, of principle, I appeal to the Liberal.
Electors of the West Riding not to be ashamed of their colours.
Let Toryism heist false flags to lead the unsuspicious to believe that
it has changed. Let it lower the " Blee" standard, to which even
its enemies never refused the name of " true," and let it hold ferlh
the white flag of a hollow and dishonest truce to men who wish to
be deceived ! Bet let those who have inherited from their ancestors
the principles and the symbols of liberty, rally round the Orange
standard I Rest assured that, of all impolitic things, a hollow co-
alition is the most impolitic. The party which adheres to principle
is th 9 only one which can count upen•success, because it is the only
ono which deserves it. _ _

fam, Gentlemen,
Your faithful and obliged servant,
C. E. EARDLEY,

THE NICOLL : this is an abbreviation of the
title given to a Patented Outer Coat, called " The Nicoll's
Chlamys Palctot," the said curtailment being first suggested in the
daily correspondence of the several Agents appointed under the above
patent, and it will no doubt be generally adopted in preference to the
name in full, through being more convenient to use.
It is perhaps unnecessary to observe, that although the original
title may thus be cut down, the Patentees will not hesitate duly to
forward, upon application to their Ware-rooms, 114, 116, 120, Re-
gent-street, or 22, Cornhill, the useful and elegant garments in ques-
tion, thongha very blue or even a rather green Nicoll be desired.

THERE is a double use and purpose in the
Nicola', or PATENT CHLA.MYS PA LETOT, In other
words. the same garment can be used as a warm winter Overcoat,
and will look equally- well as a light Paletot (usued In walking, &c.).
indeed, for the latter purpose it represents the popular and
fashionable Registered Paletot, which, when it is desirable to firm
into a warm winter garment, the same is transformed into the
Nichol], by the simple addition of a wadded Interlining, which is in-
corporated with the lighter Coat in a most perfect and original
manner; this can be attached or detached without the least trouble
to the wearer.
A most moderate price is fixed for these two garments in one,
viz., Three Guineas.
It has been secured from Imitation by Royal Letters Patent, and
can be had in London only, of Messrs. Nicoll, 114, 116, 120, Regent-
street, and 22, Cornhill.

MEMBERS of the CLERICAL, LEGAL, and
MEDICAL PROFESSIONS, it is presumed, will all
readily concede their patronage to the now patented invention called
'TEE NICOLL, inasmuch that, besides its soberness of colour (a
black, or almost invisible green, or dark blue), and unpretending
appearance, it is the only garment extant which presents to gentle-
men thus engaged a proper defence against the ills arising from a
variable climate (the origin of colds, Br.e.) To these it is said profes-
sional men are more susceptible thin others, arising from clase
study, and their otherwise general sedentary habits ; now should the
morning atmosphere be mild or warm, and the latter part of the day
cold, the Nicoll is a garment that will provide for both contingencies.
Row this is effected is more fully described, with the prices, in one of
the accompanying advertisements.

T' MERCHANTS, STOCK BROKERS,
A. UNDERWRITERS, &c., going to or returning from the
City, ss also all others requiring a warns wrapper or overcoat morn.
ings and evenings, but whose bustling avocations during midday, by
inducing a proper circulation of blood, the possession of a lighter
Paletot would then be desirable, as too often the case, the said warm
coat is suddenly thrown aside, and much risk to bodily health in-
curred. The price of this garment is given in the annexed Adver-
tisement ; but it can only be had in London., of the Patentees, Messrs.
Nicoll, 114, 116, 120, Regent-street, and 22, Cornidll.

RAILWAY TRAVELLERS pronounce the
NICOLL or PATENT CIILAMYS PALETOT to be indis-
pensable to their comfort upon a journey for the dye following
reasons:—

First—lt is a warm overcoat.
Secondly—lt can be converted into a light overcoat at the
journey's end.
Thirdly—lf travelling by night (or even in The day-time) when an
ordinary hat is irksome, a portion of the lining (which is perfectly
concealed till required) can then be brought out, and by a ready and
Most simple contrivance, can be converted into a graceful cap or
hood, which effectually protects the head, ears, neck, from cold
draughts of air.
Fourthly—lt has a pocket protector, which, as its name would in-
dicate, preserves from loss the railway ticket or loose cash, &c.
The last, though not least, important distinction presented by the
Nicoll, beyond anything of its stature ever laid before the public,
consists in its moderate price, already submitted in anothor adver-
tisement (to which add half a guinea for the Chlamys Hood). In-
deed, was not the sale of thousands contemplated, Messrs. Nicoll
would lose rather than be fairly remunerated by the low prices
quoted.

A GENTS for NICOLLS' PATENTS.—AII
IX those Firms throughout the various parts of the United King-
dom and the Colonies, who, up to the present time, have held a local
Agency for the Sale of the above Patentees' original and popular in-
vention called the REGISTERED PALETOT, &c., will also hold the
appointment for the sale of all the new Patents, subject to the usual
conditions.
Gentlemen, Non-Residents In the Metropolis, are constantly de-
siring that a mode of self-measurement should be published, as also
the addresses of the Country Agents. The first-named object can be
easily effected by means of public Advertisement, as a descrip-
tion of the number of inches around chest and waist (taken
under the coat) will alone suffice; but the names of all
the Agents selling Nicolls' Patented Garments are too numerous.
to be described through the same medium ; however, the address of
the nearest shall be immediately forwarded upon application to
Messrs. Nicoll's Counting House Department, 120, Regent-street,
London.
The following Agents have a very large variety of the above goods
slways ready for inspection, viz. :
Messrs. Macdona, Molesworth-street,
Messr. Wareing and Son, New-street, Birmingham.
Messrs. Dawbarn and Son, Bold-street, Liverpool.

NICOL L'S REGISTERED PALETOT.
This most gentlemanly and useful over-coat retains its ori-
ginal moderate price, and being adapted for the winter months,
has already been honoured with the patronage of his Royal Highness
Prince Albert, Prince George of Cambridge, Prince Edward of Saxe-
Weimar, his Grace the Duke of Wellington, and the chief ornaments
of the Court, the Pulpit, and.the Bar.

The above can be obtained in London only of 11. J. and D.
Nicoll, 114, 116, 120, Regent-street, and 22, Cornbill.

the second part, the ockets or other such receptacles are protected
by the-apertures to the same, expanding to admit the hand, and im-

of the full title of the Nicoll Chlamys Paletot), and the second part
is called "The Patent Pocket Protector ;" and further it is our in-
tention to apply to the High Court of Chancery for Injunctions to
restrain, &c., and to employ all cther legal means to prevent V Ilan-
thorised persons from applying either of these trade marks or terms
to other articles, or selling or offering for sale any garment, &c.,

to our injury and the deception of the public.
