It may operate as a spur to the legislature to correct
an abuse so grievous, and we entertain no doubt
that, next session, some means will be devised of
protecting the honest candidate who may be success-
ful against the slanderous and vexatious proceedings
of defeated electioneering tacticians.
Apart from the question in its generality, we feel
a more than ordinary interest in it, arising from local
circumstances, inasmuch as a petition has been
presented against the return of Messrs. TURNER
and MACKENZIE for the Borough of LIVERPOOL,
upon the allegation of bribery and treating, and it
is said that the recognizances entered into to prose-
cute the petition have been found to be unexcep-
tionable. This we can easily believe, because, in a
Parliamentary sense, it is the mere signatures of
men of ordinary credit to a printed form, by which
they declare themselves liable for a certain amount
for expenses. But is there a man in Liverpool
possessing the commonest ideas of honesty, and
only a moderate share of what the world calls sense,
who has the faintest shadow of a belief that either
Mr. TURNER or Mr. MACKENZIE owe their seats
to corrupt means of any kind ? It is too prepos-
terous for argument, too large a draught upon the
wildest credulity to be listened to with patience.
It may have soothed the wounded pride of Mr.

NAPLES.—By decree the export duty on olive oil in

per ton, and to about £l3 per ton by foreign flag of those
countries that have not treaties of reciprocity, being an
increase of about £5 12s. per ton on the old rate. The
import duty is reduced one-half, viz., from£l7 to £Blos.
per ton. Further clauses of the decree prohibit export of
beans, Indian corn, potatoes, French beans, vetches, len-
tils, peas, tallow, and hogs' lard. The decree is in force
from the 27th of December. The scarcity of crops of all
kinds is believed to be the cause.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET.—THIS DAY.
With the exception of a fair supply of Wheat and Flour
from abroad, and a few thousand loads of Irish Oatmeal,
our arrivals for the week do not present any important
feature • the export of Wheat to Ireland and Coastwise
is, at the same time, to a good extent, but of Flour and
other articles, more limited than usual.

The market to-day was moderately well attended, and
there was a fair demand for Wheat and Flour, without
any alteration in prices from those of last week. The
same remark will apply to other articles.

with your request, and place my services at your disposal.
I cannot feel otherwise than highly flattered by the unsought

Should I havethe honour to be elected, it wilibe my desire
to give my best attentiodto the general interest,of ;the Town,;
especially to those improvements which are at present occupy-

WARD.
GENTIAMEN,—I accept the invitation, which I have bad
the honour to receive from a numerous and influential body
of the Electors of the Ward, to •become a Candidate at the
approaching Election, for a aeatinlize Town Council, as one
of your Representatives.
The subject which at this period more particularly engages
-Abe attention of the Council and ;the Inhabitants of the
Borough, is, the Improvements of the Town. I believe that
no part of the community is more interested in this question
!than yourselves; not only from the -central position of your
Ward, but on account of its possessing so many places of
public resort, viz. :—the Theatres, the Concert Hall, St.
John's Market, the Railway Station, and St. George's Hall.
To .this subject your Representatives have given their best
attention, and have supported those Improvements, which,
in their opinion, are first called for, and which will be em-
bodied in an application to Parliament in the ensuing Session.
I take this opportunity of returning my sincere thanks for
the kindness and courtesy which I have received from you
during the twelve years I have been honoured with your con-
fidence.--I ,remain, Gentlemen, your obedient Servant.

PITT-STREET WARD

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
SIR,—A letter, signed "An Elector," appears in Fri-
day's Mercury, insinuating that a number of Reformers
signed Mr. Jeffreys' Requisition, being led to believe it was
Mr. J. R. Jeffery, of Compton-house, why was the candi-
date. As I obtained nearly all the names that were
attached to that Requisition, I demand to know who are
the parties that I deceived, or who were so deceived. Ido
not believe "An Elector's" statement. You will, perhaps,
allow me to say a little with respect to our candidate, Mr.
W. P. Jeffreys, and then I shall leave your readers to
judge whether those Reformers are, or ought to be, as
ignorant as " An Elector" would make them appear.
Mr. W. P. Jeffreys has been a ratepayer in the ward up-
wards of twenty-three years.
About five years ago, at the general Easter vestry, on
the motion of Mr. John Smith, he was elected an over-
seer of this extensive parish.

He discharged his duties so satisfactorily, that when a
vacancy occurred in the representation of the ward, he
was requested by a number of gentlemen to offer himself
as a candidate. A requisition was got up, and received
the signatures of a large number of electors of all shades
of politics ; and a deputation waited upon Mr. Jeffreys at
his house in Washington-street, accompanied by Mr. John
Smith, who was specially invited, not being an elector of
the ward, but who was connected with the Mercury, and
was a warm admirer of our proceedings. Mr. Jeffreys
accepted the requisition, and was elected unanimously.
His period of office being about expiring, he has been
presented with another requisition, numerously signed by
men of all parties, and by far the most respectable that
ever emanated from Pitt-street Ward.
A tradesman in the ward twenty-three years ; overseer
two years ; councillor three years ; and yet, according to
"An Elector," mistaken by his neighbours for a man
who has no connection with the ward,—and who was
never either councillor or overseer !

David, it won't do I
Mr. John Smith, to whom I have twice alluded, has
come forward as a candidate in opposition to Mr. Jeffreys.
Mr. Smith has lent the use of his name to the men of
enlarged minds—comprehensive views, &c., many of
whom, like Mr. Smith, were supporters of Mr. Jeffreys
three years ago.

In Conclusion, Mr. Editor, you need not fear the issue
of the contest. I am, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
CHARLES CALLIS.
