THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

TO THE

ELECTORS OF THE SOUTHERN DIVISION OF
THE COUNTY OF LANCASTER.

GENTLEMEN,
TNDERSTANDING that it is not the intention of
U 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 a Candidate for that honour at the approaching Ge-
neral Election.

Connected as I am, by accidents of my position, with the
agricultural, the commercial, and the manufacturing interests
of this Kingdom, I entertain the desire to take as active a part
for their protection and promotion as my abilities may enable
me or opportunity- may allow. It is for you, and not for me,
to decide whether I shall find the opportunity through so ho-
nonourable a medium as Your Suffrages.

Should that object be aftaiised,-of an ambition which may I
censured for its presumption, but mit, I trust, for its motives c
its direction, I shall enter public life under a deep sense of th
responsibilities which even the entertainment of that ambitio!
will entail upon me ; for I feel that the justification even of th
attempt must rest upon my future conduct.

I shall enter on thiit carter at a moment when the verdict o
Parliament has recently been pi, onounced for the decision o
great 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 01
the most arduous crisis of that contest of opinion; with a con-
fident expectation that the steady and judicious application of
the principles of free commercial policy then established will
realize the advantages anticipated from them by their advo-

cates, and with the earnest desire

advantages.

A candid review of the difficulties which have attended the
administration of the public affairs of the United Kingdom since
the accession of Her Majesty's present 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 be entitled to my best support.

I found this belief on the teener
with respect to Ireland, both forth
V present scarcity, and for laying*
social improvement in that countrl
I have witnessed with sympathy and approbation the step
which Her Majesty's advisers have taken to extend the bless-
ings of education, and I hone to see those blessings freely

ale I within the reach of all cla,ses of Her Majesty's subjecis.
With these general views, with no inducement but a desire
fog your service and that of the country, with no pretension
nut that community of interest to which I have adverted at the
outset of this Address, I am ready to incur those imputations
of rashness and presumption, against w'.?ich I have no guaran-

to secure your Sufferages, no endeavour shall be wanting on my
part to make up in zeal and assiduity for my deficiences in age

grateful for the honour you have done m!,. and the- confidence
you have placed in me, by untiring devotion to your interests
and wishes.
