support.
To, the lure of (to say the most of it) doubtful advantage,
in a much controverted point of public economy, you will not
sacrifice your abhorrence of unprincipled agitation. whether
set on foot for personal or party objects, whether on the
English or Irish soil, you will not sacrifice your rooted mis-
trust of a government, weak, wavering, and unprincipled,
occupying no fixed position, holding up no settled standard,
in politics, in religion, or in commerce, inviting the unsettle-
ment of every question, and the disturbance of every interest,
by the example of concession after concession—of declared
opinions made for the sake of personal objects, or the pro-
longation of party influence.
You will look for the advancement of commerce, and the
restoration of interrupted prosperity, less to the effects of
sudden and contested changes, than to those of wise and
steady government, of an administration just and impartial
to all parties, not tampering with, or bargaining with, or
truckling to, any ; not exciting hopes only to disappoint them,
and to exasperate those whom they have misled and disap-
pointed •, at home, promoting order and security by encou-
raging the spread of religion and education on definite but
tolerant principles ; in finance, not allowing embarrassment
and deficiency to accumulate from year to year without a
remedy, nor leaving unsettled questions affecting, through
the state of the circulation, the whole industry of the coun-
try ; abroad, watchful over the interests of trade and naviga-
tion, whether affected by the tariffs or dissentions of foreign
countries, and preserving peace, and confidence in peace, by
the timely settlement of disputed questions, and by a sagacious
provision for coming dangers. Such a Government you have
not now ; but such a Government I believe is now within
the power of the people of this country, if they do their duty
to themselves and to their children, to secure. Their Con-
servative representatives have done their duty • the people
must do the rest. The electors of Liverpool, I know it from
experience, will not be wanting in the struggle.
With these feelings, this hope, this confidence, I offer my-
self, in conjunction with my able and valued fellow-labourer,
Mr. Cresswell, for your support at the coming election.
I am, Gentlemen,
Your obedient and faithful Servant,
SANDON.
Plaid Ditto, three and four Grosvenor-street, June 8, 1841.

TO THE ELECTORS OF LIVERPOOL

GENTLEMEN,
THE debate, which terminated this morning, and the di-
vision by which it was followed, have rendered it im-
perative in her Majesty's Ministers either to resign the Offices
which they have continued to hold, in violation of the Spirit
of the Constitution, or to dissolve the Parliament without
delay. Judging them by their past conduct, I conclude that
dissolution, and not resignation, will be their choice, and
lose no time in again soliciting your Suffrages. It seems
probable that her Majesty's Ministers, finding that their de-
feats in the House of Commons were becoming more frequent
and by increasing majorities, resolved, some time since, to
dissolve the Parliament; but knowing also that they enjoyed in
no higher degree the confidence of the People than of their
Representatives, the dissolution was postponed until, by the
proposal of certain measures which they call a Budget, but
never expected to carry, a feverish excitement could be raised
in the country, under the operation of which their past mis-
government might be forgotten, and their lost influence re-
gained. If this was not their motive for proposing these
measures, why has the consideration of the Poor Law been
postponed, and the motion respecting the Corn Law perse-
vered in ? I admit, that the former might have created an
inconvenient degree of excitement at the Elections. But are
not both these questions equally exciting and equally im-
portant? Is it not essential that both should be discussed
calmly ? Can any satisfactory adjustment of either be pro-
duced by the violent and unreasoning hostility which it is
sought to raise in one class of the community against ano-
ther ?

For this purpose, the cry of class interests has been raised.
Some persons may suppose, that the protection given to
Agriculture is for the benefit of Landowners alone; but no-
thing can be more erroneous. How many interests are
bound up and inseparably united with those of the Land-
owner, the Farmer, and the Agricultural Labourer? How
many heavy burdens are at present borne by the Landowners,
which are essential to the welfare of our complicated state of
society, and which cannot be removed from him and imposed
upon the owners of any other description of property ? I can
hardly imagine anything more important to the well being of
the nation, than that it should be independent of all foreign-
ers for the necessaries of life ; and if that be so, is not the
encouragement of Agriculture by an adequate Protection,
equally a benefit to all classes of the community ? IF PRO-
TECTION IS TO BE GIVEN, surely PROTECTION
BY A GRADUATED SCALE (whether the one now in
existence or any other which the wisdom of Parliament may
determine upon) IS THE MOST RATIONAL AND THE
MOST BENEFICIAL: cn the one hand, it affords the
greatest protection when prices are low, and it is most
needed; and, on the other hand, it imposes the lightest bur-
den when the people are least able to bear it.
Our colonists and our shipowners have also been assailed
as classes enjoying an undue degree of favour. I cannot but
think that the welfare of OUR COLONIES AND OF
OUR. MERCANTILE MARINE is of the HIGHEST
IMPORTANCE TO THE NATION, and that while the
protection of those who, on the faith of our existing laws,
have embarked large capitals in the Colonial Trade and in
Shipping is but an act of common justice, the encouragement
of others to extend that trade, to build ships, and to main-
tain a large body of British seamen, is an act of political
wisdom calculated to promote the interests, not of a class
only, but of the whole British empire.
Subject to these limitations, where protection is either a
simple act of national justice, or where it operates for the
benefit of the whole nation, I subscribe entirely to the
principle of Free Trade. But our national interests and the
state of society in this country are far too complex to admit
of the simple unregulated application of abstract principles.
On the subject of the POOR LAW I frankly admit,
that it may have had a tendency to correct some of the evils
arising from the law as before administered. THE PRE-
SENT SYSTEM, however, MAY BE MUCH IM-
PROVED —TH B POWERSGIVEN(
HAVlNGsometimes AN
to un-
feeling men), ARE TOO LARGE—THE COMMIS-
SIONERS
UNLIMITEDARE TOO ABSOLUTE,
POW ER OF LEGISLATION BY
THEIR RULES—and above all, THE SYSTEM IS IN-
APPLICABLE TO LARGE AND DENSELY PEO-
PLED TOWNS, where it is impossible to resort to the
workhouse as the test of destitution without producing the
most cruel and disastrous results.
These are my opinions on these interesting questions,
which I have thought it my duty to declare, while I renew
in-
stitutions former
in Churcherassura and State,ncesofinvio which I know youlableattachmentt
ost
dear. Believe me, your exertions in their defence are still
needed: the attempt at the spoliation of the church has
been postponed, not abandoned--the attempt to establish a
scheme of secular without religious education was foiled by
