Her Majesty's ministers being about to appeal to the
country on the subject of the Corn-laws, I feel it due to you,
openly and explicitly, to declare my opinions on that im-
portant topic.
I consider the raramount objects sought for in the main-
tenance of a Corn-law to be these—to encourage the home
growth of corn by affording adequate protection to the Bri-
tish farmer ; and, at the same time, to provide that the home
consumer ehall not be liable to extravagant prices in seasons
of scarcity.

Convinced that these ends have been fully attained by the
principle of the sliding scale now in operation, I cannot but
view with alarm the attempt about to be made by the govern-
ment of this country• to substitute a fixed duty for the pre.
sent plan ; the results of which must be, that in average
seasons the home grower will not be able to compete with
the foreigner—large districts of corn land will be thrownout
of cultivation--and consequently, in times of continental
scarcity, or of war. (our home produce being inadequate,)
the price to the consumer will be far more extravagant than
it e'er can be under the regulations of the present fluetu.
sting scale.

On other subjects of political importance, I ean confi-
dently appeal to the past as a gth.r.mntee that your interests
for the future will not be neglected shOUW. Ton again entrust
them to my ears.

hare the honour to be,
Gentlemen,
Your obedient, humble Servant,
P. DE M. GREY EGERTON,
Oulton Park, June, 1841.

TO THE GENTRY, CLERGY, AND ELECTORS OF
THE SOUTHERN DIVISION OF THE COUNTY
OF CHESTER.
GENTLEMEN,
A Dissolution of Parliament being evidently at hand, I bag
most respectfully to announce that the pledge given by
me to afford yon, at this EVENTFUL CRISIS, an opportunity
of recording your votes, I am now ready to redeem.
The present Government—no longer en independent Go-
vernment—too weak to administer the affairs of this country,
and too tenacious of the advantages of ()nice to relinquish
them, has succumbed to popular clamour and proposed a
total change in our just and admirable system of CORN-
LAWS—a measure which, if carried, would not only de-
prive the English landowner and farmer of their property and
the English labourer of his means of subsistence, but the
manufacturer of his best and most certain market, thereby
proving ultimately as injurious to the ene interest as imme-
diately destructive to the other.

Members of the IRISH ROMAN CATHOLIC PARTY now
form a portion of the administration of the country, which,
in my opinion is incompatible with THE SATETT or OUR
PROTESTANT CHURCH AND PROTESTANT LIBERTIES.
A Government thus composed, and so regardless of the
peace and well-being of the nation, as the existing one has
proved itself, by the introduction of measures alike detri-
mental to both, is altogether unworthy, and undeserving of
our confidence.

Having on a former occasion issued an address, I will only
now repeat the declaration then made, that " I submit to the
thraldom of no party ;" and, in the event of a dissolution of
i:arliament, I shall throw myself on the support of those
Electors who, like me, are determined to take that INDE •
PENDENT counst: which I conscientiously believe ths exist-
ing state of affairs requires of every friend (whether Church-
man or Dissenter) to the PROTESTANT RELIGION, and of
every well-wisher to his Country.
I have the honour to remain,
Gentlemen,
With sincere respnct,
Your very faithful servant,
JOHN TOLLEMACHE.

TO TAE
ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF FLINT,

GENTLEMEN,
TN the present critical state of public affairs, an early Dia-
-1 solution of Parliament may be expected, and I think it
right to announce to you, that. it is my intention to sack at
your hands a renewal of the truet which your kindness has
already once reposed in me.

That I have acted upon those strictly Conservative princi-
ples which I professed at the last Election, will be sufficiently
evident from my Parliamentary course during the last four
-ars. I will not now enter into any minute declaration of
nolitical sentiments, as they must generally be well kuown

any rate many convenient opportunities will
arn:,e for explaining them ; but I am anxious to assure you,
without loss of time, of my decided hostility to the plan pro-
posed by her Majesty's Ministers for altering the Corn Laws
—a plan which, indeed, they never expected to be able to
carry, but which they have entertained solely for the un-
worthy purpose of agitation—a course which I trust will be
as fruitless as it is dishonest.

to you, and

I must also call your particular attention to the circum-
stances under which a General Election is likely to take place.
The advisers of the Crown, with unexampled baseness, per-
sist in retaining their offices, though incapable of carrying
any measure through Parliament, and yet pretending that
the feeling of the country is in their favour. Such conduct
is in the highest degree unconstitutional—in open contempt
of the authority of parliament—and an insult to the people of
England, who will certainly respond to the appeal thus made
to them, in a manner that can leaps no doubt of their judg-
ment against a degraded and profligate Government.
I am convinced that, in our county, Conservative princi-
ples have gained much strength, and that at least the last
acts of the Ministry will have alienated many of their former
supporters ; I therefore look with confidence to the result of
a new Election, resting toy claim to your support on no per-
sonal merits of my own, but solely and entirely on the Con-
stitutional principles of which I am an humble, but most
unflinching advocate.

When the Dissolution is proclaimed, I shall immediately
proceed to wait upon you in person.
1 have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your faithtul obedient Servant,
STEPHEN R. GLYNNE.
London, June Ist, 1841.

FOR THE GROWTH, PRESERVATION; AND EM-
BELLISHMENT OF THE HAIR.

MIDDLEMOOD' S BOTANIC OR FAMILY IIAIR

17 M. respectfully aolicitsatrial of this inestimable Oil,
tJa e where its efficacy is not known. It is patronised by
families of distinction, and held in high estimation at the
Toilet. It has been proved, by many experiments, in restor-
ing the Hair, when every other application has failed ; and
when the Hair is on the decline, or becoming grey, it reno-
vates and produces its original lustre.
I❑ answer to inquiries, J. M. respectfnlly informs his
Friends and the Public he is making arrangements which
will insure to the Public the Genuine Botanic Oil in all parts
of the Kingdom in its pure and unadulterated state; and
should any doubts exist of the great utility of the Botanic Oil,
the Proprietor refers them to the decision of the Chancellor
of the Exchequer, and the testimonials proved before Parlia-
ment on the 10th April, 1830. J. M. also wishes to apprise
the Public of various attempts to suppress the sale of the
Botanic Oil, not by competition, but by secret means. Ven-
dors throughout the Kingdom were cautioned against selling
Middlewood's Soap and Oil, as it was subject to Medicine
Duty ; and informations were laid against the Proprietor.
J. M. acknowledges the informations, at two distant periods,
each penalty £5O ; hut in ease the Proprietor had sold the
above illegally, it proves the article superior to anything sold
avowedly for the same use, as no similar article was ever
charged with duty. J. M. will for the present offer no com-
ments ; the proceedings adopted to suppress the sale is the
best possible recommendation ; and so well satisfied is go-
vernment of the great utility of the Botanic Oil, that no
further interruption will be given to the sale of the Botanic
Oil and Vegetable Soap, which will be found of more exten-
sive sale than any other similar articles.

J. M. has sub;tituted Pot Boxes in lieu, of Bottles, as more
convenient; the present reduced price is 25., 3s. 6d., 55., and
in Bottles, for the Toilet, 10s. Wholesale and Export
Orders on the shortest notice.
J. M. will engage that, where the Botanic Oil is used,
either in Public Seminaries or Families, the hair and scalp
shall never be infected with any cutaneous disease, as ring-
worm,
&c. &c., such is its etnolient properties.
Orders, with references or remittances, addressed J. Mtn-
oLEwooo, Parker-street, Liverpool, will be duly forwarded,
with customary allowances. The Botanic Oil is a valuable
speculation, ns no article can compete with it as Hair Oil.
FORBIDDEN FRUIT.—J. M. begs to announce at this
Season, this cooling sad grateful Fruit, for Invalids, also in
sea sickness, &c. ; has also en 4.1 PI
