THE TOXTLTEI WARDS " IN PARTICULAR."  d r eGs Es iNn Tg Lycomu E, Or—tlll et a purposthee of a measure fraught with good to the " town at large, and " sour wards in particular." success to the public spirit of a few " disinterested in; rpl liberty rr et vq ue of s ttihnu g s your publicly support ad di Iviidirukaeinsh;eaadviowwhesy sithsourladpindotaTndoxate lmtho-sptaruknepmreuceladteenote: cousin on the other side of the water? The difference between us is simply- this. You, our representatives, have, in your official capacity, no doubt, attended to the interests of the " town at large," but you seem almost to have forgotten those of " your wards in particular whereas the Commissioners of Birkenhead have always endeavoured to ensure the welfare of their own townsh in ip" at large," and the success of their private plans , particular." Differences of political opinion have not prevented them from working together for their own and the public good: we have always been striving agatr those men with whom our own prosperity is intimately connected. The Birkenhead folks are a compact besura,, sweeping away all opposition before them : the Toxtetri people are a lot of disunited sticks, allowing every advantage to slip between them. I will not at present enter into any detail, but' will ~at once bluntly propose what wish—viz., that you wot attend a public meeting to be convened for the purpose of Ttaokwinngcinotuonccoilntsoidceorraitsitornuctthae pslriopporriestyli of petitioning the enlarge St. James's Market, adding a ppsedinlarsth'eaPauk.fial market, and to widen the lower part of Park-lane—our legitimate and nearest road into the town. The natural result of such an application, backed by your influence, would of course be, that the prayer would be granted; the Cheshire farmers would bring over their produce to our market—now too small—spend their money the neighbourhood—trade would improve—property would rise in value—we should not have to go down town to purchase much which now we are compelled to do—we should learn the value of union amongst ourselves; and we should not stop there. You would shew the ,‘ town at large," and " your wards in particular," that as representatives you were unwilling to perform less than as candidates you had promised, and you would shew your heretofore political opponents that you had not only conl" manded success, but had deserved it. For my own part, I have set my mind upon this mit ter, and am prepared to sink all political differences, and to put my shoulder to the wheel with the most inveterate Radical in the wards. The announcement of this resolution on the part of so inconsiderable an atom as myself may appear ridiculous ; but since so small a man as General Tom Thumb has made such a noise in the world, I think none are sufficiently small to be sneered at.---1 remain, gentlemen, your obedient, humble servant, H.
