! Eo the ELECTORS of the BOROUGH of REIGATE . Gentlemen , rpHE announcement of a General Election calls JL on me , in redemption of my pledge , to present myself as a Candidate for your suffrages . My political principles are well known to you . We have Hvea some years together as friends and neighbours , and you hive , therefore , had the amplest means of knowing my private character . Although entirely independent of all parties , I have all my life been an ardent Reformer . I take a deep interest in the promotion of education , of flree trade , and of social and political progress . I claim for every man the right of private judgment , and of exemption from all pains , penalties , and disabilities in the conscientious exercise of that right . I am a strenuous advocate for purity of election , and 1 arejoice in believing that on that subject jour views are \ t advocate the strictest economy in the national expenditure which is compatible with the due eaciency of the -Various departments of the public service . I believe that judicious retrenchments may be applied , especially to the superfluous expenses of our navy and military establishments without impairing that effective strength of either Tvhfch is not less essential to the maintenance of the honour and seourity of the nation than to the preservation of peace l > y due preparation for the sad alternative of war . It has been my endeavour as a private citizen to elevate ¦ the position of tte industrious labourer , to minister to the privations of the deserving and necessitous , and to promote the usefulness of our local institutions . I have viewed with regret and anxiety that estrangement Of classes in the economy of modern society , which too often . has its origin in a neglect of those duties of kindly neighbourhood , in the discharge of which , is bound up the safety of the rich and the elevation and comfort of the poor . It will be ray endeavour if elected to impress upon the legislature the spirit which has dictated these views of social obligation , and to the best of my ability to serve you diligently , and to legislate with , a single eye to the true interest of our common country . As I have no personal interest to serve , and no unworthy ambition to gratify , in responding to your requisition , it will be my endeavour so to represent you as to justify your confidence . A retired British merchant , and oae of yourselves , I shall esteem it no less an . honour than a duty faithfully to discharge the high trust should your choice devolve upon me . i am , Gentlemen , Tour faithful and obliged servant , Beigate-hill , March 10 , 1857- WM .
