L STANDARD,

TO THE
ELECTORS OF THE SOUTHERN DIVISION OF

THE COUNTY OF LANCASTER
GENTLEMEN,

UNDERSTANDING that it is not the intention of
your present honourable Representative, Mr. Entwisle,
again to offer himself for the representation of your Division of
the County of Lancaster, I venture to present myself to your
notice as ti Candidate for that honour at_the—approaching Ge-
neral Election. _

Connected as I am, by accid ti of my position, with the
arrricultural, the commercial, the manufacturing interests
of this Kingdom, l enterta. el. desire to take as active a part
for their protection and omotron as my abilities may enable
me or opportunity in allow. It is for you, and not fir me,
to decide whether all find the•opportunity through so ho-
nonourable ame urn as your Suffrages. _

Should that olfect be attained, of an ambition which may be
censured for its presumption, but n I trust, for its motives or
its direction, I shall enter public life under a deep sense of the
responsibilities which even the entertainment of that ambition
will entail upon me; for I feel that the justification even of the
attempt must rest upon my future conduct.•
I shall enter on thatcareer at a moment when the verdict of
Par'

sliament has recently been pronounced for the decis.,_ o.
,reat questions of policy which have long agitated and divided
public opinion. I shall enter it with the recollection that the

name I inherit is somewhat connected with the termination of
the most arduous crisis of that contest of opinion; with &con-
fident expectation that the stepdy and judicious application Of

the prinCiPles of free commercial policy then establisheaWli
realize the advantages anticipated from them by their .arivo-
cates, and with the earnest desire to secure and extend those

advalits. g•es

A candid review of the difficulties which have attended th
iministration of the public affairs of the United Ki
ie accession of. Her

sent Ministers to office, and
of their discharge of their More than usually onerous duties;
leads me to the belief that their measures; in a future Parlia-
ment, will he entitled to my best support.
I found this belief on the general character of their measures
with respect to Ireland, both for the alleviation of the miseries
co` nresent scarcity, and for laying the foundation of ulterior

int in that country

I have ;vitnessed with sympathy and approbation the steps
which Her Majesty's advisers have taken to extend the bless-
inTs of education. and I bore to see those blessings freely
a 7e'l within the reach of all classes of Her Majesty's subjects.
With these ,f;eneriV views, with no inducement but a, desire
fo: your service and that of the .country, wits
