15- 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.

IRADI CAL PuitlTY.-LWe have been furnished with the names
of four Freemen of Liverpool who were offered each and
any quantity of, :refreshments, if they would vote for Sir
Erskine Perry. We have also the names of those who offered
the bribes. It is needless to add that the attempt was
unbucccs3ful.

G.W.—The Chairman of an Election Cc•:nmittee is chosen by a
Committee of •Selection appointed ,by the Speaker at the
commencement•ef the session. The other members are bal-
lotted for out of.nomes of members of -the House of Commons
not then serving on committees or otherwise exempted.
" HONEBTA."—We noticed the insinuation attempted to be
conveyed againtt us in the notorionify scurrilous Saturday
print alluded to. When he thinks •ite can benefit his pocket
by so doing, this unscrupulous perverter of facts never hesi-
tates to misrepresent and malign a-eontemporary ; and, with
regard to public men, a small order for printing, or an adver—
tisement, would, at any time, secure his favour—and the loss
of it, his wrath—as we are in a position to prove. We are
under no obligation to Mr. BRAT UET-MOORE : we first
mentioned his name in connexion with the representation of
the borougbovithout any communiontion with that gentle.
man or his friends ; but, when the-names of two Conservative
gentlemen bad been fairly brought before the public, we at
once accepted the nomination, and strenuously urged the.
importance of -anion and determination. We had not the
slightest interelt in the success or defeat of Mr. BRASILET-
MOORE other than as it affected the ascendancy of Conserva-
tive principles in the representation; but we unhesitatingly
assert that, had he been returned-an Friday, instead of
being at the bottom of the poll,, there is not an individual,
in Liverpool who would have heaped so much slavish adula-
tion on Mr. BRASILET-MOGRE the. Successful, as the con-
temptible scribbler who now pours his coarse invective on- Mr.
BRANILET-MGORE the Defeated. We have had many proofs
of this fact ; and if our readers require an example, we need
. only -refer them to the fulsome compliments bestowed upon
Mr. FORBES.MAZ KENZIE during the last twelve months, and
the disgraceful attack upon that gentleman the moment he
ceased to be,ouritepresentative, when nothing more could be
hoped from his favour. We have never, in a single instance,
been the aggressor in an uncourteous or .ungenerous allusion
to a brother journalist. We have too much respect for our-
selves to pursue a oourse which, while offensive to our readers,
must tend to lower the dignity of the press; and we regret
that we. should. on this occasion have been called upon, in
self-defence, to reply to the malicious attack- of a print which
has more than once been designated as •"41 ,DISGRACE TO
THE TORY P.ARTT" in this town.

TUESDAY MORNING, JULY IE, i 1853.

THE 'ELECTION.

Tam contest, which ,was brought to a close on
Friday, was one of the most extraordinary in the
annals.of Liverpool,:involving, as it did, a eonfusion
of parties which left speculation at fault as to the
issue, until the actual polling showed that our advice
of last week had been ,followed,—that personal eon.
siderations had been allowed to give way to the
more important end of vindicating constitutional
principles,-..-and that union and determination had
succeeded in securing the triumphant return of the
two Conservative Candidates. So doubtful was
deemed the result, owing to the fear that the bring.
ing forward of Mr.I3nAMLEY-MO4;RE would weaken
the Conservative ranks, that wagers were confidently
laid on the success .of Sir ERSKINE PERRY ; and,
though all agreed that Mr. HOR&FAILL would be
at the top of the poll, great difference of opinion
.existed as to who would occupy the second place,
until the closeness of the numbers polled for Mr.
LIVDELL at an early hour left no doubt that the
Conservative Electors had justified the ,confidence
which had been placed in them, and had 'shown
their determination to win by adhering to their pre-
vious resolutions. Had the contest simply rested,
as it did at the former election, between the Con.
servatives and the Radicals, there never could have
been a vestige of uncertainty as to the issue, what__
ever exertions may have been made by the latter
party to gain their object. They had so thoroughly
exposed the badness of their cause, and the hollow.
ness of their pretensions before the Committee upon
their notorious Petition, that Liverpool rejected them
with scorn and indignation, and the announcement
of a Radical Candidate was only viewed as an
amusing incident to add the semblance of a contest
to what might have been otherwise an unexciting
affair, as even victory loses half its charms when too
easily achieved.
The appearance, however, of Mr. BRAMLEY.
MOORE, a fellow-townsman and a professed Con-
servative, under somewhat equivocal auspices, lent
a new feature to the affair which deserves a passing
remark, particularly as a local contemporary has
ventured an insinuation against ourselves, to which
