LIVERPOOL ELECTION.

We have been requested to insert the following corre-
siionde : •
Green's Hotel, Lincoln's Inn Fields,
February 25, 1833.
Dden Sta,—l have just heard that you have seen a letter from
Lord Sandon, in which his lordship states, that an offer was
made by the deputation in London to abandon the petition
against his lordship's return, on cOndition that his support
should be given to the proposal for a committee to inquire into
the alleged corruption at the Liverpool elections; and that Mr.
Wason was the bearer of this proposition.
In the name of the deputation, who feel that this statement
requires explanation, I write to you .in •order to ascertain the
correctness of the information conveyed to me by your per-
mission.—Yours, very truly, WM. RATI-IBONE.
Joseph Sandars, Esq.

Ellis's Hotel, February 26, 1833.
• .
My DEAR Stri,—ln reply to your note of last night, I have
to state, that I said the otter was made by Mr. Wason. If this
gentleman had no authority to make it, 1 think hetwas wrong in
interferiug.—Very truly yours, JOS. SANDAItS.

Green's Hotel, Lincoln's Inn Fields,
February 27, 183.3.
Messrs. Rathbone, llarvey, and Wyberg, who have been
deputed to promote inquiry as to the Liverpool elections, pre-
sent their compliments to Mr. Wason, and beg leave to hand
him copies of a correspondence which they have had with Mr.
Sapdars. A report has been prevalent in Liverpool, and has,
indeed, been made the subject of animadversion in one of the
Liierpool papers, to the effect that the deputation had offered
to withdraw the petition against Lord Sandon's return, pro-
vided his lordship. would support the motion of a general com-
mittee to inquire into the proceedings of the Liverpool elections.
Mt. Wason will at once perceive, that the offer is now stated
to have been made by him. The deputation hope Mr. Wason
will enable them to contradict this report.

• 2, Queen's-square, Westminster,
February 27, 1833.
GENTLEMEIV,—I have received your letter, with its enclosures,
and,l must, in the first place, observe, that I think it would
havd been much better had you requested from Mr. Sandars a
direct answer to the only important part, as it appears to me,
of your letter to him, previous to per addressing me on the
subject ; allude to that part which, states that Mr. Saudars
had seen a letter from Lord Sandon, in which the charge was con-
tained. Mr. SaOdars, in his reply, ta'es no notice of that part
of vow letter, but merely admits,
," I said the offer was made
by Mr. Wason."
:Whatever statement Mr. Sandars may choose to ,make can-
not be of the slightest importance to me • and, in giving to his
asslbrtion, that " -offer . was made by me, the deputation in
Loudon; to abandon the petition against his lordship's return,
on condition that his support should be given to the proposal for
a committee to inquire into the alleged corruption of the Liver-
pool elections," the most unqualified contradiction, both in
letter and spirit, such a statement can receive, I beg to be un-
derstood as doing so on your account alone, and not on my
own. I iemain, gentlemen, your obedient servant;
RIGBY ,WASON.
Messrs. Rathbone, Harvey, and Wyberg. •

Green's Hotel, February 27, 1833.
DEAR St.n,—l beg to hand you the copy of a letter received
to-day from Mr. NVison.—Yours, ever truly,
R0134'. E. HARVEY.
