TO the ELECTORS of the WEST RIDING
of YORKSHIRE.
Upper Brook-street, Nov. 22, 1848.
Gentlemen,—An invitation, as unexpected as it is gratifying, has
just been conveyed to me from a numerous body of electors, to allow
myself to be put in nomination to represent year Riding.
My, first and overwhelming impression, on receiving such a com-
munication, has been one of personal unworthiness of such an
honour. Whatever bearing such an admission may have, it is right
to confess that, as a man whose property lies out of your county.
though for a short time he represented one of your boroughs, and
who is unknown by sight to a large proportion of Yorkshirensen.
such an offer is calculated to produce feelings, in which gratitude is
strongly blended with a disposition to decline the task.
Allow me, however, to state to you the circumstances which have
counteracted these first impressions. The grounds on which I have
come to the decisi.tt to comply with the request to become a candi-
date are, in brier, those which have induced a large body of yew-
selves to forget that my property Is south and not north of the
Humber.

I have been asked to stand, and now consent to do so, because,
while there are three or four subjects on which. I entertain strong
odluions, there is another en which my views are so long cherished,
and so firmly held, that I hopa there is scarcely any sacrifice which
I should not feel it my duty to make in order to secure their triumph.
The principle.ot entire freedom of commerce I desire to see carried
out to its fullest development, including a change in our navigation-
laws.

Economy in the public finances I desire to see effected, not so
much by petty reductions in subordinate offices, as by a bold and
manly review of the whole principle and details of our present expen-
diture. The charge on the Exchequer is greater now wider a Whig
Government than it was when the Duke of Wellington was in office.
I will not presume, -in such a hasty address, to say in what exact
particulars of our military, naval, and civil serv;ces reductions ought
to be effected ; bat 01 this I am certain, that a searching investiga-
tion of the whole of these departments is a duty which the distressed
condition of the country demands from your representatives.
With regard to our representative system, I am grateful for the
Reform Act as far as it goes, and if it had gone as far in practice as
its supporters anticipated in theory, I should be reluctant to dis-
turb a settlement arrived at after severe contests. But I desire to
see the principle of the Reform Bill carried out. I wish to see elec-
tions the real expression of honest public opiniofi ; and I have
witnessed so much of corruption and intimidation that I feel per-
suaded that wo shall never_have real representation without the
Ballot. To the success of the Ballot I believe large constituencies to
be essential ; independently of which reason for extending the suf-
frage, I have a strong conviction that the wider can be made the
basis on which our franchise is founded, consistently with the due
qualification of the voter, the safer will be the superstructure of our
Constitution, and the better will it be able to resist those storms
which are threatening the old despotisms and novel constitutions of
the Continent.

To these economies and reforms peace is essential. It is scarcely
needful to say that both as a politician and as a Christian, I ardently
desire, and should strenuously labour for its maintenance.
But the point of all others on which I feel it to be ray duty to ad-
dress you, is the subject of further religious endowments by
the State. This is the question which alone induces me to re-
linquish a life of comparative privacy, and to submit to the
labours, responsibilities, and (I may add) privations, of a Par-
liamentary life. Here I feel that my direct duty to God as
a Christian coincides with my lower duty as a politician and as
an Englishman. Putting aside for the moment the abstract
question of existing religious establishments, I protest against all
new religious endowments ; involving as they do the putting of
truth and error on the same level, and the establishment of a pro-
vision for Romanist priests—the offspring of an insidious and un-
worthy expediency— side by side with Protestant institutions,which,
whatever may be their abstract propriety or the contrary, are at all
events based upon an acknowledgment of divine truth. To any
provision of any sort or kind for the Romish priests, to any transfer
of the property of the Irish establishment under any plea,
however plausible, to the adherents of Remo, I am conscien-
tiously, firmly, irrevocably opposed.
But while I thus object to the endowment of the religion of my
Romanist fellow-countrymen, am bound to add that I also object
to the further endonment of Protestantism ; desiring as I do that
the civil and religious rights of one class of religionists in the State
should be as tenderly cherished and as firmly maintained as those of
another.

The deputation who have waited upon me are this instant leav-
ing London, and I must abruptly close this communication. I hope to
follow them to-morrow to Leeds, and speedily to have the honour of
addressing the electors in some of the chief towns of the West Riding.
In the meantime, I have the honour to be, gentlemen,

Your faithful and obedient leivant,
CULLING EARDLEY EARDLEY.

rrHE POISONING OF MRS. SMITH, OP
ROMSEY.
TO rim EDITOR OF THE lITGEIST.
Well may Mr. Morrison, the Hygeist, expose such infernal poisons
as Strychnine, which sends people into the next world even when
the dose is no larger than a pin's-head, and leaves no trace behind.
Who can he sale whilst this is the ease ? Our chemists' shops arc
filled with theoc infernal polsons lying about amom,st such things as
honey, arrow-root, Stc., &c. I see the Doctors, through their old
friend the " Dispatch," are up in arms against Mr. Morrison, for
opening the eyes of the publ.c on this, to them, most important
question.
Burke, Hare, Bishop, and Wiß,ams murdered people to find bodies
for the doctors, who were ready and willing purchasers, and now
villains are ashy; chioToform (brought in by the doctors) as a means
of murdering and robbing people on the highway. This is what
doctors call science! Yours, &e ,
