the burgesses should be represented in their town
council by a majority of Radicals ! It is no less un-
fortunate than strange; for thus the weight of public
authority, and the sanction of official, dignity are given
to that radicalism which every Conservative cordially
and justly detests, and a power is thrown into the

;ale of the adversary which it requires the utmost
raining of Conservatives at all times to overcome.

hey might be found. Mr. Chalmer is a surgeon—
nd although we would not object to a candidate
2erely because he was a surgeon, if in all other re-

)ects he were duly qualified—yet, if we were quite at
;a, and in search of a candidate to represent a district
elusively mercantile, assuredly a surgeon would not

receive our preference for such a purpose. We should
have no objection to see Mr. Chalmer returned to that
medical congress, which a bill now before parliament
would constitute by free election of the professionals
for the purpose of regulating all medical affairs ; in

such a senate he perhaps might cut a respectable
figure ; but we see no necessity for filling our mercan-
tile town council with members of the lancet corps.
Again, Mr. Chalmer comes forward on the Radical
interest; but how long, we should be glad to know,
has he been attached to that side? Truly, the Radi-
cals must be hard run for men when they can find
none to put up but deserters from the Tory camp, and
one especially a convert of so late a date as we under-
stand their present candidate is; but this is their
affair, and let them settle it among themselves. All
we request of the Conservatives is, to vote for Mr.

Parker—a man who is not given to change—a man
whom they all know well; and one who, we believe,

will not disappoint their expectations as a representative
of Conservatve men, and a supporter of Conservative
