•
On the approaching First of November I RETIRE from
the REPRESENTATION of your WARD, and I think it
respectful to you to state, thus early, that it is not my inten-
tion again to seek at your hands a renewal of the trust.
Deeply regretting, as I do, the necessity for the severance of
a connexion which commenced three years ago, and was con-

firmed scarce twelve months since, I have no alto
contemplated absence from home, probably of son

posed, for the third time, to confide to n

Which, during the past three years, it has been my pleasure
and my duty to protect. I say pleiisure, because in your Ward
the true principles of representation have ever been, as I feel
assured they ever will be, respeCted. You ask for no pledge,
nor seek in anyway to fetter your Representatives, relying on

their conscientious discharge Of the trust you repose in them.
On my own behalf, and, without overstepping the bounds of
propriety, I trust I may add, in behalf of those whom I have
now, perhaps for the last time, the honour to call my Col-
leagues, I am bold to say your confidence has never been
abused; and I will say further, that if other Wards would
adopt a similar course, the dignity of your local administration
would be better upheld, your interest better promoted, and the
tone of feeling in the Town Council incalculably improved.
We should then have Representatives in our Council Chamber,
at present now well nigh overrun with Delegates—gentlemen
whose respectability I cannot pretend to deny, but whose posi-
tion and influence in that Chamber are, and must ever be,
most materially lessened so long as they consent to appear
there as the mouthpiece of a party—no matter of what opinion.
Perhaps now, more than on any previous occasion, it is of
importance that the true principle of representation should
influence the approaching elections.
