alike the duty and the privilege of every Inhabitant, when so
invited, to take his share in the Local Gove went of the

My permanent residence among you ha been little more,
than eight years, but I have been extensir y connected with

countties, for a period of nearly thirty ars, and I have ever
felt the greatest interest in its prosper[
I have not the good fortune, like tri- y of the Candidates, to
be able to call your attention to my st services, but should I,
by your favour, be returned, my great object will be to promote,
by every means in my power, the good government of the town,
and the impartial distribution of its Funds, unfettered alike by
pledges or by party motives.
I should not have considered it necessary to trouble you with
any further declaration of the line of conduct 1 propose to
myself to pursue, having already so fully stated my sentiments
in this respect to the Gentlemen of the Deputation when they

I not learned, on my arrival at home this evening, after an ab-
sence of three weeks, that the several Candidates fur the re-

TrAVING been selected at a Meeting of the : fortners of
IL your Ward to beconie Candidates Or your • ffragcs at the
approaching Election of Municipal Officers, w beg to express
the deep sense we entertain of this mark of y. r approbation:
We therefore at once declare ourselves in e comprehensive
phrase " as Reformers;" that is, as will' g to remedy every
abuse, and to do-away with all jobbing w ether for place or un-
merited salary. • Firmly asserting a maintaining our own
opinions, we should still also have re ect and deference to the
opinions of others. Sincerely cong 'atulating you on- the in-
crease of local representative government by means of the Mu-
nicipal Reform Bill, we should seek to embody its salutary
principles in immediate practice; considering it as our duty to
Promote the interests of the whiile community, and not that'of
any party. Perhaps we ought also to add that we should eager-
ly embrace all opportunities for extending the advantages of
education, and of cheerful and healthy recreations to the poorer.
classes of our great community, as well as look with a favour.,
able eye to all means calculated to effect their improvement iu
habits of temperance and honest industry.
It may be expected that the Councillors for this Ward will
make themselves acquainted with its local wants and circum-
stances. The subject of Lighting, Watching, Police, &c., as
well as the imposing and regulation of rates for each or allot
these objects, wilt be matter for close attention. It appears.to
us that; in this respect, the West Derby Ward will have pecu-
liar claims on its Councillors. In short, the post will not be
without considerable ditty and responsibility. Still, with your
advice and friendly co-operation, it may be hoped that, at the
termination of the service, the trust may be returned to von, if
not with commendation, at least without censure.
Fortunately, the period of service will not be of long duration
—the power to displace or approve by re-election will again be
shortly in your own hands.
We trust that this exposition of our sentiments will render
totally unnecessary any personal solicitation on our parts.

TO THE ELECTORS OF 'WEST DERBY WARD.
GENTLEMAN,
y FIND myielf in nomination as a fit person to come your
I Representative in the new Council. The ho, ur is not the
less for being unsolicited. The determinatio • to serve you, if
elected, is a compromise of personal cony -'Cs, which I feel
myself impelled to make. Such humbl rvices as I have to
bestow are yours.
I will pledge myself to no man—to no party. I will be go-
verned in all thy votes, on local subjects, by a sense of what is
due to this Constituency; and on ail public questions, by what
1 conceive to be the interest of the whole community.
Should the Council be converted into an Siena for party po-
litics—should it be used for such purposes, as an engine to bear
on the deliberationi of Parliament, as I know it laufully may
he, there are some subjects on which I shall be prepared to vote.
I will support the Established Church, purified of pluralities and
non-residence, and strengthened by a more just distribution of
its revenues. Any sinister or,open attack on the integrity and
independence of the . House of Lords I 'will manfully resist.
From •this determination no instructions por solicitations of
yours can,
.divert me. Every measure of well-considered
economy, and all useful Reforms, whether pertaining to local
or public questions, shall have my most unflinching support..
If, after this brief declaration of my sentiments, you should
elect me, I trust you will find in me a faithful Steward, keeping
due "Watch and Ward" at the Council House.
