TO CORRESPONDENTS.
We shall be happy, at all times, to receive communications
on subjects of local or general interest; and if our friends
will be good enough to authenticate the same by their signa-
tures, for our own satisfaction, we shall feel obliged.

MAD boos.— We are authorised to state that the notice
which has recently been issued by the Mayor against mad
dogs is not intended to allude in anyway to the petitioners or
their supporters.

S. J. KENSINGTON.-All those who wagered that Messrs.
Turner and Mackenzie would be returned at the last election
have fairly won. Those gentlemen were returned, and have
since voted as members.

CHOBHAM.—The rule in the titglish language is for the the
to be sounded soft, as in cihurch. Words derived from the
Greek form the exception, as monarchy. The ch is somded
like sh in words derived Trom the French, as chivalry.

A WOULD-DE CONSERVATIVE ELECTOR.—OnIy those an the
register have a right to vote. Our correspondent has no
chance, nor would his case have been mended, had he com-
menced housekeeping a year before last December.

AN OUT-AND-OUT TaltY.—We are in no way responsible for
the course pursued bythe Liverpool Standard at the election
of 1847. Had it been in the same hands then as it is now, we
should have done then as we do now, and that is,counsel the
electors to be twrrED, to be early at the poll, and vote for
the two candidates brought forward by the conservative
party. _ _ _

Sir ERSKINE Pour's-Inlay make a very good judge in India,
but he is no good judge of Liverpool, or we should not have
seen him in the ridiculous position of a Radical candidate.

Q. E. D.—We are not in the secrets of the 'Constitutional
Association. Our advocacy of Conservative principles is
based on higher grounds.

Owing to the great pressure upon our space, from the interest-
ing proceedings connected with the forthcoming Election,we
have been 'reluctantly compelled to omit -severs' commu-
nications, as well as literary notices and reviews of new
music.

TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 5, 1853.

TO THE ELECTORS OF LIVERPOOL.
TIrE Writ was received on Saturday, and the
Worshipful the MAYOR has fixed Thursday next
for the "Election. At the eleventh hour, a Radical
Candidate has been brought forward in the person
of a retired Indian Judge, who =knows as much
about the interests of Liverpool as he does of what
will happen next year. Another attempt is also to

be made to divide the Conservative party, in order
to win some heavy wagers made at the Angel Hotel.
Mr. BRAWLEY-NIOORE scorns tole made the tool

of such time-serving politicians, and his real friends
will best -show their friendship by remaining true
to the Conservative interest. If the Conservatives

are disunited, the Radicals will 'reap the advan-
tage. Be;therefore, true to yourselves. ATTEND
EARLY AT THE POLL ! TOTE FOR
MESSRS. HORSFALL AND LIDDELL, AND
YOU ARE CERTAIN TO ACHIEVE A GLO-
RIOUS TRIUMPH ! !

THE REPRESENTATION OF LIVERPOOL.
OUR fellow townsmen were, all last week,in a state
between apathy and excitement, preparing for the
time when they would once more send two Repre-
sentatives to Parliament, and yet without any but
the most vague ideas as to whether there would be
a contest, or the course would for once be walked
over by the two• Conservative candidates. The walls
were placarded with the retiring Addresses of the
Members so unjustly deprived of their seats, as
well as Addresses from the Honourable HENRY
THOMAS LIDDELL, and on behalf of Mr. THOMAS
BERRY HORSALL, who were to be nominated
to fill the vacant places; while little else beside,
except what are called "squibs," denoted that
anything disturbed the good old town from its
wonted propriety. So irksome did this apparent
inactivity become, that the wisdom of the selec-
tion, in the case of one at /east of the Candidates,
was questioned, and many avowed their opinion
that a local candidate would have been preferable.
There was also the feeling that a Liverpool Election
ought not to pass over without the excitement of a
contest; and, as the Radicals evinced such a reluc-
tance to show fight after their recent discomfiture,
the only resource, in the absence of a real enemy;
was to test the opinions of the Electors as to their
choice between a fellow-townsman and a distin-
guished stranger. Accordingly, a Requisition to Mr.
JoHN BRAMLEY-MOORE was numerously signed by
men of both parties—the Radicals, no doubt, being
anxious to cover their sense of mortification in sup-
porting even a Conservative against the candidates
brought forward by their opponents—and on Satur-
day his reply was anxiously looked for, as it then
seemed the only chance of the vacant seats being
contested. Had affairs remained in the same quies-
cent state, 'there seems to be no doubt that this
reply would have been favourable, as may be judged
of by the Address of Mr. MOORE, which we publish
in our advertising columns; but, on Saturday, it
appeared that the enemy had at length succeeded
in entrapping a victim into the belief that he had a
chance of gaining a seat for Liverpool, if he would
but oblige them by spending his money ; and in the
afternoon, an Address appeared from the Hon. Sir
ERSKINE PERRY, formerly Chief Justice of Bombay,
and recently returned from India, soliciting the
suffrages of the constituency upon Liberal prin-
ciples. Under these circumstances, Mr. BRAMLEY-
MOORE very wisely declined being placed in the
invidious position of weakening the Conservative
ranks, by doing anything to create a division
amongst them.

In a matter of this copequence, 'WE CANNOT

TOO STRONGLY INSIST UPON THE IMPORTANCE
OF UNITY IN THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY, if
they would preserve that ascendancy and triumph-
ant position which were so nobly achieved at the
last Election. It is not simply a question between
the respective personal merits of individual candi-
dates, but the maintenance of great principles,
which is at stake. These are identified with the
Members whom Liverpool may send to represent
her; and upon the issue of the Election will depend
the all-important point—whether she is to continue
to hold the first place in political intelligence as she
does in Commerce, in purity of principle as well as
in Shipping.
When the Earl of DERBY appealed to the
country in behalf of the Administration which he
had been called upon to form, he said that the
great object which he had in view was that so well
expressed in our admirable Liturgy—" the safety,
honour, and welfare of our SOVEREIGN and Her
dominions." Liverpool responded to the appeal,
and, by the triumphant majority in favour of
Messrs. CHARLES TURNER and FORBES MAC-
KENZIE, the Electors nobly vindicated their claim
to be the first constituency in the empire. The
issue was set before them, the highest aspirations
of manly feeling were called into exercise, and the
result showed that they could appreciate, not merely
the excitement of political triumph, but the recog-
nition of great principles, as affecting commercial
welfare, and, above all, the maintenance in their
integrity of those Protestant institutions under
which, by the mercy of Providence, this nation has
distanced all her competitors, and reached a pin-
nacle of greatness unparalleled in the history of the
world. In the forthcoming election, which is fixed
for Thursday next, the issue to be tried is the
same, the stake is as high, the necessity for exertion
as urgent; for, though we may count with confi-
dent pride upon the Electors remaining true to
themselves, we must not forget that our opponents
are unscrupulous, that it is dangerous to be lulled
into a false security, and that the triumph which is
worth the exertion to achieve it, WILL ONLY BE

SECURED BY UNION AND DETERMINATION.
