" TO THE ELECTORS OF KING'S LYNN.

" Lendon, June 4.
" Gentlemen,—lt is with no common pleesure that I
have received the address, signed by more than 350 ,
electors of Lynn, in which, having regard to the cir-
cumstances under which a vacancy has occurred in the
representation of your borough, and to the fact that
only three months ago I had the houour of presenting
myself before you as a candidate, and of explaining at
some length my political views, you kindly informed me
that my personal attendance at the approaching election
will be dispensed w:th, and that I have no reason to ap-
prehend the withdrawal of your confidence.
" I accept, though with some regret, the indulgence
wbicl you so considerately offer. My personal inclina-
tions would lead me to waive it, but the pressure of offi-
cial duties, and the public incmvience which may arias
from neglect, leave me an option. When those dot
become lighter, and when my time shall be in some
measure my own, I trust to be able personally to ex-
press my gratitude for the support which on so many
occasions I have received from the constituency and
people of Lynn.
"I have not thought it necessary to address you at
length on the politics of the moment. The general bias
and leaning of my polical conviction is, I believe, wall
known to you. I have never set much value on party
names, especially when, as at the present time, they
have almost ceased to represent fundamental differences
of opinion. But there are principles of action which,
by whomsoever professed, I shall be prepared on all oc-
casions to support. lam for a policy of peace, and, as
far as practicable, of non-intervention abroad. I will
resist to the utmost, by impartial justice towards all
sects, and by undue deference to none, the disorganis-
ing influences of sectarian rivalry—influences which,
wherever they have largely prevailed, have been fatal
alike to the greatness of an empire and he happiness of
a community. I wish to see the public service open to
talent in all ranks, and the advantages of instruction as
widely extended as possible.
" Deeply sympathising with those whose livelihood
depends on their labour, I think that to lighten the bur-
dens of the poorer class, so far as is consistent with fiscal
ustice, shoal' be the first object of our finance.
" The power of England over her dependencies: abroad
has been acquired for the most part by arms ; but it can
only be maintained by a policy of moderation and equity.
The support of such a policy, ther,fore, is equally en•
joined upon us by the interests of Great Britain and by
those of humanity at large.
" These are the views to which it is my desire to give
effect. I hope that they are Liberal in the truest sense,
but that they are Conservative in the truest sense I am
well assured ; for no institution in our age can be stable
unless they rest on the freely given support of a con-
tented, because trusted, peteide.—l remain, gentlemen,
your obliged and faithful servant,
" STANLEY."

Mr. MOYSE then said that it was only a short
time since he had had the honour of nominating
their noble representative for re-election ; and in
discharging that task again it was unnecessary for
him to trespass on their attention at any lenga
They had already had ample opportunities of judg-
ing of Lord Stanley's fitness for office ; they had
witnessed the zeal, energy, and ability which he had
brought to bear upon his duties as the head of the
Colonial Department ; and they had every ground
for expecting that he would acquit himself with
credit in his new and most responsible position as
the head of the India Board. The noble lord, by
the aid of his manly and statesmanlike qualities,
his cool judgment, and his kindliness of disposition,
was eminendy qualified to restore order and bring
about an improved state of feeling in our Indian
empire. His lordship wan, he believed, destined—
perhaps at no distant day—to 611 the highest office
under the Crown ; and they must all cherish the
hope that he would long be spared to give the State
the benefit of his calm and sagacious counsels. Mr.
Moyse concluded by nominating the Right Hon.
Lord Stanley, as a fit and proper person to repre-
sent the borough of King's Lynn in the Commons
House of Parliament.
Mr. PLATTEN, in seconding the nomination, ob-
served that that was not the first time that Lord
Stanley had been elected for King's Lynn in his
absence. The noble 'old while sojourning in
America was first retutned to Parliament by that
constituency. All that they then knew of him was
that he came of a good stock, and was the son of
the Earl of Derby. Since that period he had shown
himself to be a man of commanding talent, of un-
tiling industry and perseverance, as well as of
thorough honesty and straightfordwardness. There
was no office under the Crown for which he was not

qualified.
The MA:roit then inquired whether any gentle-
man had any other candidate to propose. No re-
sponse being made to this challenge his Worship
declared Lord Stanley to be duly elected.
This announcement was received with hearty if
not very deafening cheers; and, after voting thanks
to the returning officer, the dozen spectators, whose
number had by this tim3 b.eu supplemented by
two tardy patriots satiated at last with itinerant
musicians and hirsute prodigies, then dispersed.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills
Extraordinary Medicines for the Cure of Bad Legs.—
Mr. Wm. Hill of Exeter, had for upwards of three years
an ulcerated leg of the most fearful description, which
defied the best medical skill to heal, having been in Guy's
spital, King's College, and the Devon and Exeter
Hospital, each pronounced it incurable ; and the only
remedy he could obtain would be to have it amputated
Notwithstanding these opinions, he made a trial of
Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which effected snore
good in a few days than all the treatment he had here-
tofore received, and subsequently the wounds on his
leg were completely healed.—Sold by all vendors of
