TO MERCHANTS, BANKERS, BROKERS, AND OTHERS

THE universally - acknowledged want of Dining
Rooms suited in importance and equipment to the ad-
vancing prosperity and increasing mercantile population of the
port (conducted upon those principles which are the charac-
teristic features and form the strong recommendation of Esta-
blishments of the kind in the metro olis luta-led to the for-
mation of the Merchants' Coffee and ' g Rooms, a suite of
apartments unequalled in capacio ss by anything extant.
As its originators conceive interest of the Public to be
identical with their own, t have determined to obser% e the
strictest economy in rges ; while the able management
under which each d tment is placed will ensure a scrupu-
lous attention in •t e selection of Viands and Wines, the climax
of excellence in the Cuisine, a promptitude and order in execu-
tion,—indeed, every effort will be made to obtain and maintain
the support of that large and influential body of the commu-
nity, the Merchants and Brokers of Liverpool.

any trouble—the speedy Removal of Deleterious Matter—its

ABRIDGED OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
" The simplicity of construction insures the lasting proper-
ties of the Filter."—London Times.
" No Ship with this Portable Apparatus on board need be
in want of the sweetest and purest water. Liverpool Courier,
June 21st, 1848.
" We can conceive no invention better calculated to serve the
sailor, and at the same time to benefit the interest of the mer-
chant."—Liverpoot Mail, June 10, 1848.
" To the brewer, dyer, and others requiring a copious supply
of pure water it offers great advantages, and is also available
for culinary and other purposes."—Standard, 30th May, 1848.
" The Filter was greatly admired by the Scientific Gentlemen
at the Polytechnic Society for its self-cleansing, self-acting,
and durable qualities."—Liverpool Standard, 13th June.
" It is far and away the most perfect and economical thing
of the kind extant."—Liverpool Chronicle, 29th April, 1848.
" It possesses advantages over all other Filters we have seen
in the simplicity of its construction and its capacity to disen-
gage all deleterious matter with which water may be impreg-
nated."—Liverpool Journal, June 10th, 1848.
" It is a new Filter, made of Sand Stone, which disengages
matter of every kind held in suspension, and renders the water

If, therefore, I had not re ' a requisition from the Elec-
tors of your Ward, to off iyself as a CANDIDATE on the Ist
of November next, riend Mr. Gladstone having positively
declined to dos should have been quite content to have
remained a passive spectator of the events of the day. lam of
opinion that it is not the province of any individual to busy
himself about obtaining a ;seat in Council for his own personal
gratification ; a representative ought to be the spontaneous
choice of the Electors. The invitation conveyed to me is so
flattering to my feelings that I do not hesitate to accept it.
Having been for many years a member both of the Old and
New Town Council, without ever having sought to conceal my
opinions on any subject whatever, 1 scarcely think it necessary
to make any declaration of them on the present occasion. As,
however, the Rating of the Dock and Corporate Property ap-
pears at present-to be the most interesting topic to the Electors,
I may remark that I had the honour of being the Chairman of
the Committee which made the report to the Town Council
recommending the rating of those properties, and that I hold
the same situation in the Committee recently appointed to
carry out the resolutions which the Council came to at their
last adjourned meeting.

I beg to-repeat, wh-at I have frequently said before, that I
will not ask any of you for a vote. A canvass would be dis,
agreeable•to my own feelings, and, in my opinion, disrespectful
towards you. If I am elected, I shall feel myself in the posi-
tion of havin,g received an honourable mark of your good
opinion, of which I may justly be proud, and for which you
will he entitled to my cordial thanks.

In the event of my becoming your representative in Council,
I will discharge my duty towards you with fidelity, and will
endeavour to promote those measures which, after due consi-
deration, may appear to me best Calculated to promote the
general welfare of the burgesses
I am, very respectfully
