TO THE ELECTORS OF EXCHANGE WARD.
GENTLEMEN,
THE same old-fashioned, earnest, and (as I hope) con-
sistent Tory who entered your service three years
ago, I have now, in eiving an account of my Stewardship,
nothing to regret, because my small duty has been dis-
charged faithfully, and in some degree fruitfully ;—no-
thing to explain, for wh-..t I think, 1 always say, and do,
and am ready ,to maintain;—oohing to solicit, except
that you will find a worthier yerre-s-efitative ; and, above
all things, nothing to conc ,asit is the main purpose of
this address to prove which I publish early that you
may have time to act upon it. It may be said that the
occasion dees not require the d..claration which I am
about to make, but I cannot think anything unnecessary
that promotes honesty. I would not willingly receive a
vote given in any ignorance of the views which it tended
to support.
Holding fast then the political faith I have just indi-
cated ;—a faith which even its enemies respect, for " it is
• founded on greet principles, and noble instincts; it sym-
pathizes with the lowly ; it looks up," always and every-
where, "to the Most High ;" so thinking, and humbly
desirous to act, I of course see little to approve of in the
policy of what is called a Conservative Government. But
in that little I am bound to include a late much-can-
vassed measure, as to which it is probably my misfortune
to differ from a large majority of your body. I mean the
increased grant to iaynooth, in the propriety of which
I entirely concurred. Nay, I would yet go further in the
same direction, earnestly hoping soon to see a proper provi-
sion made out of the public revenue for the Roman Catholic
olergy of Ireland. A more steadfast Protestant than my-
self does not live, but I cannot think it any part of my
own religion to depress and degrade that of a very large
proportion of my Fellow-christians. Believing all other
means to be inadequate, I want to see the Irish peasantry
first humanized, and then instructed by a well-educated,
well-paid, and respectable priesthood of their own, as-
sured that then only, and with (what the same means will
influence) some sense of the duties of property on the
part of their Absentee Landlords, they will become indus-
trious, successful, and happy.
Such, gentlemen, are the views which, however un-
suited, generally, to the objec's of a municipal election, I
have thought it my duty, for a reason already mentioned,
to submit to you. They would, no doubt, in the present
state of public opinion, disqualify me for the office of your
Representative, if I were desirous of resuming it, which,
for other reasons, I am not. But thus parting, it will
• • surely be without diminution of our mutual respect that
you will now proceed to a better choice, and that I, even
under the great pain of differing from friends, have openly
avowed what I couscietitiously believe to be true.
I am, Gentlemen, your obedient servant,

JOHN NORTH.
