The principle of this Company is that of attaching all
Importers and Exporters, by a Division of the Profits among
them, after payment of the Dividends, thus creating a com-
munity of Interests between the Shippers and Shareholders,
a principle which will best guarantee to its Proprietors a
certainty of their Dividends, and to Shippers of all descrip-
tions of Goods and Live Stock the having a well-supported
Establishment of first-class Steamers, and the lowest rate of
freight compatible with due attention to their maintenance.

TO THE ELECTORS OF SOUTH LANCASHIRE.
GENTLEMEN,—Being now on the eve of a dissolution
of parliament, and having to restore into your hands the
trust which you did me the honour to confide to my care, it
hecomesiny duty to inform you, that I again intend to solicit
your suffrages, and to offer myself for the third time as a
candidate for the representation of South Lancashire.
Since I have held the distinguished situation of being one
of your members, I have on several occasions explained to
you my political opinions, and I will only say of them gene-
rally, that they remain unchanged ; but at this moment,
when the country has bsen so recklessly agitated by the plans
of financial and commercial change, proposed by a govern-
ment having neither the power nor the intention of carrying
them into effect, it is right that I should more particularly
allude to them.

With respect to the corn-laws, I approve of the principle
of the graduated scale of the present laws, and, should any
new modification of them on that principle be brought for-
ward, would give it my most serious consideration ; but to the
proposed alteration to a fixed duty, I am adverse, as I think
it will lead to the ruin of our agricultural population, without
even benefitting the manufacturing classes. It will tend to
make this country dependent upon foreign countries for the
supply of corn, which, in time of great scarcity, either at
home or abroad, will be at a higher price to the consumer
than under the existing law.
An immense body of agricultural labourers, being thrown
out of employment, will seek it in manufacturing districts,
and thereby produce a great reduction in the wages of all the
working classes, by the competition arising out of surplus
labour ; and even allow* the price of bread to be cheaper,
which is very doubtful, the fall in the price of bread will not
be in proportion to the fall of the amount of wages.
I cannot, therefore, but consider the plan of a fixed duty
on corn as delusive.

I think the opportunity has been singularly ill-chosen-for
the alteration of the corn /intim_ as our West Indian colonies
are just beginning to recover their energies after the great
and successful experiment of Negro emancipation, and when,
both from them and from our East Indian possessions, a
more abundane supply of free-grown sugar is in every suc-
cessive year to be expected.
The government having given so little information as to
the benefits to be derived from the alteration of the timber
duties, and it being apparent that our Canadian trade and
shipping interests would systain great injury by the alteration,
I need only say I am opposed to the plan as suggested by
the government.
I am not adverse to a careful revision of the import duties
by a strong and capable government possessing the confi-
dence of the country ; but I look with distrust upon the
schemes of a ministry who bring forward such extensive
changes in our commercial relations, with the sole view of
creating temporary popularity in their favour, and of endea-
vouring by agitation to gain a few more votes at the ensuing
elections, to prop up their weak and tottering administration.
Having principally alluded to the most engrossing topics
of the present day, I pass over others on which my opinions
are, I believe, pretty well understood, and beg to assure you
that my time and services are again at your disposal, should
it be your pleasure for a third time to intrust me to your
important interests.---I remain, gentlemen, your obedient,
humble servant,

R. BOOTLE WILBRA.HAM
