WALTON BAZAAR AND PROMENADE

IN AID OF THE

FUNDS FORA NEW ORGAN,
AND FOR CERTAIN EMBELLISHMENTS REQUIRED WITHIN

THE PARISH CHURCH. WALTON.
A BAZAAR for the SALE of LADIES' WORK, &c.
will be held in Walton during August next (the precise
days to be hereafter announced), with a view to raise a Sum
of Money sufficient to defray the cost of a NEW ORGAN,
and for other improvements required within the Parish
Church of Walton-on-the-Hill.
In adopting this nethod of effecting their purpose, the
Committee deem it necessary briefly to state, that ig.t(onse-
quence of the heavy Assessments lately made on the Rate-
payers for rebuilding first the Tower and afterward the Body
of the Ancient Edifice, as well as from the acknowledged
reluctance of the Churchwardens (even if were able)
to raise the necessary amount by subscriptrOs, or otherwise,
among the Parishioners generally, there remains no more
likely means of obtaining a New Organ, and of rendering
the interior of the Church commensurate in beauty with its

handsome exterior.
They are, however, gratified to find that their appeal is
jikely to be eminently successful, inasmuch as many Ladies
and Gentlemen have already promised their assistance, and
still more, because the exclusive use of the beautiful NUR-
SERY GARDENS adjoining the village has been most kindly
tendered, and will be appropriated for the purpose, by Mr.
SKIRVING, their proprietor.
While, therefore, the BAZAAR will be rendered highly
attractive by the number and quality of Ladies' Stalls and
Refreshment Tables, which will be placed in Marquees, to be
erected in various parts of the Gardens—enlivened, too, as
the whole scene will be, by two Bands of Music playing
Overtures and Airs alteknately, it will, at the same time,
partake of the character of a HORTICULTURAL FETE and
delightful PROMENADE.
Finally, as the Gommittee are no less anxious to render
the BAZAAR productive than they are determined to conduct
it in the most respectable and unexceptionable manner, they
earnestly solicit the contributions and patronage of all Ladies
and Gentlemen who are attached,'or who owe an attachment,
to WALTON CHURCH—the venerable Mother of all the
Churches of the surrounding district, and who would aid
them, on this occasion, in rendering that well-known Temple
equally beautiful within as without.
The names of the Ladies and Gentlemen forming the
Committee of Management will be published shortly. In
the meantime, all communications may be addressed to the
CHURCHWARDENS, who are Treasurers of the Fund, or to
the Secretary, DANIEL M`GREGOR.
(By order of the Committee.)

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE NORTHERN DIVI-
SION OF THE COUNTY PALATINE OF LAN-
CASTER.
GENTLEMEN,
ER Majesty having this day been pleased to declare her
Al intention of Dissolving the present Parliament, I take
an early opportunity of annomring myself as a Candidate
for the representation of the Northern Division of Lanca-
shire in the Parliament which is about to hcesembled.
On this, the sixth time of my appearing ore you under
similar circumstances, it is unnecessary f me to reiterate
my often-expressed opinions on many of the more important
questions to which public attention has been mainly directed
during the period in which I have had the honour of being
your representative. Your own obsertation will enable you
to judge whether I have pursued a course in regard to all or
any of them, in accordance with your own opinions, and
conducive to the general welfare.
The causes, however, which have more immediately led to
the present Dissolution of Parliament require from me a few
remarks.

I have often stated to you my belief that her Majesty's
present Ministers were from various reasons incapable of
carrying on the Government of this great Country, to the
public advantage.
Since the commencement of the present Parliament not
only has this opinion gained ground in the House of Com-
mons, but, if one may form a judgment from the various
Electiodt in the course of the last few years, the same
opinion appears to prevail amongst the Elective Body gene-
rally

The unsatisfactory state of public affairs, and more especi-
ally the deplorable condition of our Finances, at a time
when several years of increasing revenue would naturally
lead to the expectation of a far different state of things, have
at length drawn from the House of Commons a declaration
that her Majesty's Ministers no longer possess its confi-
dence.
It is for you, Gentlemen, to determine whether you will
ratify this decision of your Representatives, or countenance
the (in my opinion) impolitic step to which the Govern-
ment in their extremity, and not until then, have had re-
course, as a last chance of regaining some little of that public
confidence which by their general conduct they had for-
(sited. _ _

Zionios, Jute 22, 1541

I deeply lament and deprecate their attempt under the
present circumstances of the country, to cause dissension
bstvreen its two most important interests; but without fur-
ther remark on this point, I proceed, as it is my duty to you
to do, to state my opinions upon the three principal measures
which they have proposed—
First, then, I consider the proposed alteration in the Sugar
duties to be at least premature, and I cannot consent to par-
ticipate in the awful responsibility which it involves.
Numerous arguments might be adduced, some of them
made use of in a recent session by her Majesty's Ministers
themselves, to prove that such an alteration must be accom-
panied by a frightful sacrifice of human life, and the utter
destruction of all those hopes of the abolition of Slavery
which tlsis Country has so long and so earnestly entertained,
and for the accomplishment of which it has made such noble
and sostly sacrifices.

With regard to the duties on Timber (the proposed altera-
tion being au increased duty on that grown in our Colonies,
and a decrease of that paid on Foreign Timber,) I am far
from saying that some alteration may not be advantageously
made, but looking to the present very critical position of the
important Colony likely to be most effected by
.the altera-
tion, I hesitate to express an opinion, till I am furnished
with more information as to its probable effect than her Ma-
jesty's Ministers have yet thought proper to produce.
The third measure proposed is a change from a fluctuating
to a fixed duty on Corn. In a matter of such essential in-
terest to every individual in this country, I have given more
than ordinary attention to all the arguments brought forward
in support of both propositions, and after the fullest consi-
deration, and a careful comparison of their respective merits
and disadvantages, especially as they affect the poorer classes
of the Community, I am still in favour of a fluctuating scale.
I believe that the present system, if properly regulated,
and with some alteration of the existing rates, will give fair
and reasonable encouragement to native agriculture without
that oppression to the manufacturing, population in times of
scarcity, which is inseparable from the system of a fixed,

duty.
I will now only add that my opinions on th: ; I consider
general Com-
mercial Policy of the Country remain unchanged
a liberal system of Commerce essential to a s welfare; and
with a view to the due development of our national resources,
I advocate the removal of all restrictions which are not
ne-
cessary for the purposes of revenue or for a fair and reasons_
encouragement of national enterprise; at the same time
I am fully persuaded that this system can only be properly
carried out by a Government which enjoys the confidence of
the country, and is strong enough in public opinion to induce
a bell
theiief tat its measures are fully and t
fomaturely considered
in alh nd r bearings, a not broughrward as mere tem-
porary party expedients.
Deeply sensible of the honour which you have so often
conferred upon me, and soliciting the renewal of your confi-
dence at the ensuing Election.
I have the honour to he, Gentlemen,
•
Your obodient humble Servant,
J. WILSON PA'rTEN.
