TO THE ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF FLINT.
GENTLEMEN,
A COMMITTEE of the House of Commons leas declared,
Li. as I always expected, that I was duly elected as your
Representative at the last general Election. - I, therefore,
lose no time in repeating my thanks to those through whose
zealous exertions, as well as by their totes, this result has
been finally actdcf_eit ; acid also assprin' g you that it will be
my earnest endeavour to forget from henceforth the bitter
party spirit and all the unhappy differences that have lately
disturbed our much excited county ; and in the transaction
of its general business to know no distinction between those
who support and those who oppose the political opinions
which I entertain.

I have the honour to be,
Gentlemen,
Your faithful and obliged Servant,
STEPHEN R. GLYNNE

LEWIN MOZLEY, Esq.,
It was resolved unanimously,
That the town of Liverpool deeply sympathizes with the
inhabitants of Hamburg under the awfulJcalamity which has
befallen their city, a calamity which must have reduced a
large portion of the population to a state of the most abject
poverty and destitution, and which, from its nature and ex-
tent, has so materially impaired all the ordinary means of
local or even national relief as to justify an appeal to the
generosity and kind feelings of the whole civilized world.
On the motion of HARDMAN EARLE, Esq., seconded ae
JOSEPH SHIPLEY, Esq.,

It was resolved unanimously,
That a subscription be opened in furtherance of this bene-
volent object, and that Mr. Jacob Willink, Vice-Consul at
this port for the city of Hamburg, Mr. J. B. Brancker, and
Mr. 0. Burchardt, his Prussian Majesty's Consul at this
port, be requested to act as joint Treasurers, with authority
to remit the funds as they are collected to the proper autho-
rities appointed in Hamburg for the relief of the houseless
poor.

The Mayor having left the chair, the thanks of the meet-
ing were unanimously voted to him.
