IN CASES of SECRECY consult the TREATISE on every Stage and Symptom of the VENEREAL DISEASE , in its mild aud most alarming forms , just published , by Messrs . PERRY and CO ., Surgeons , No . 44 , Albion-street , Leeds , Private Entrance in the Passage ; and 4 , Great Charlea-street , Birmingham , and given gratis with each Box of PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS , price 2 s . 9 d ., 4 s . 6 d ., and 11 b . per Sox , containing a full description of th « above complaint , illustrated by Engravings , shewing the different stages of this deplorable and often fatal disease , as well as the dreadful effects of Mercury , accompanied with plain and practical directions for an effectual and speedy cure , with ease , secrecy , and safety , without the aid of Medical assistance . Perry ' s Purifying Specific Pills , price 2 s . 9 d ., 4 s . 6 d ., and lla . ( Observe none are genuine without the signature of R . and L . Perry ou the side of each wrapper ) which are well known throughout Europe and America , to be the most certain and effectual cure ever discovered for every Stage and Symptom of the Venereal Disease , in both sexes , including Gonprrhsea , GleetB , Secondary Symptoms , Strictures , Seminal Weakness , Deficiency , and Diseases of the Urinary Passages , without loss of time , confinement , or- hindrance from business . They have effected the most surprising cures , not only in recent and severe cases , but when salivation and all other means have failed ; and when an early application is made to these Pills , for the cure of the Venereal Disease , frequently contracted in a moment of inebriety , the eradication is generally completed in a few days ; and in the more advanced and inveterate stages of venereal infection , characterised by a variety of painfuland distressing symptoms , a perseverance in the Specific Pills , in which Messrs . Perry have happily compressed the most purifying ana healing virtues of the principal part of the vegetablo system , and whioh is of the utmost importance to those afflicted with Scorbutic affections , Eruptionsbn any part of the body , "Ulcerations , Scrofulousor Venereal taint ; being justly calculated to cleanse the blood from all foulness , counteract every morbid affection , and restore weak and emaciated constitutions to pristine health and vig « ur . The rash , indiscriminate , and unqualified use of Mercury , has been productive of infinite mischief ; under the notion of its being an antidote for a certain disease , the untutored thiuk they have only to saturate their system with Mercury , and the business is accomplished . Fatal error ! Thousands are annually either mercurialized out of existence , or their constitutions so broken , and the functions of nature so impaired , as to render the residue of life miserable . The disorder we have in view oweB its fatal results either to neglect or ignorance . In the first stage it is always local , and easy to be extinguished by attending to the directions fully pointed out in the Treatise , without the smallest injury to the constitution ; but when neglected , or improperly treated , a mere local affection will be converted into an incurable and fatal malady . What a pity that * young man , the hope of his country and the darling of his parents , should be snatched from all the prospects and enjoymetns of life by the consequences of one unguarded moment , and b y adisease which is not in its own nature fatal , and which never proves so if properly treated . It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victim , to this horrid disease owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men , who , by the use of that deadly poison , mercury , ruin the constitution , cause ulceration , blotches on the head , face , and body , dimness oi sight , noise in the ears , deafness , obstinate gleets , nodes on the shin bone , ulcerated sore throats , diseased nose , with nocturnal pains in the head and limbs , till at lengtb a general debility of tbe constitution ensues , and a melancholy death puts period to their dreadful sufferings . Messrs . Perry and Co ., Surgeons , may be consulted , as usual , at No . 44 , Albion-street , Leeds , Privato Entrance in the Passage ; and No . 4 , Great Charles-street , Birmingham . Only one personal visit is required from a country patieut to enable Messrs . Perry and Co . to give such advice as will bo the means of effecting a permanent and effectual cure , after all # ther means have proved ineffectual . Letters for advice must be post-paid , and contain the usualfee of one pound . THE CORDIAL BALM OP SYRIACUM Is now universally established as a Temedy of great efficacy . It is possessed of the most invigorating powers ; warming and cheering the spirits , and promoting digestion . It is an excellent remedy for nervous , hypocondriac , consumptive , and female complaints , lassitude , and weakness arising from juvenile imprudencies . Sold in Bottles , at Us ., or four quantities , in o&e family bottle , fit 33 s ., duty included . Observe—No . 44 , Albion-street , Leed > , CS ™ Private Entrance in the Passage .

They hopethat the successful , easy , and expeditious modethey have adopted . oferadicatingeyery symptom of a certain disease , without any material alteration in diet , or hindrance of business , and yet preserving the constitution in full vigour , and free from injury , will establish their claims for support . As this Disease is one which is likely to be contracted whenever exposure takes place , it is not like many other visitors , once in life , but , on the contrary , one infection may scarcely have been removed , when another may unfortunately be imbibed ; therefore * the pia ' ctitioiier requires teal judgment in order to trea ^ each ' particular case in such a manner as not merejy'to remove the present attack , but to preserve the constitution unimpaired , in case of a repetition at no distant period . The man of experience can ayail liimself of the greatest -improvements in modern practice , by being able to distinguish between discharges of a specific and of a simple or mud nature , which can only be made by one in aauy practice , after due consideration of all circumstances * In the same manner at birth , appearances oftea take plaoe in children , which call for » prop ?' knowledge and acquaintance with the disease , » order to discriminate their real nature , ana . wwon may be the means of sowing domestic discord , muew * managed by the Surgeon with propriety « " * 8 K > £ Patients labouring under this disease , cannot oe w ? cautious into whose hands they commit themselves . The propriety of this remark is abundantly manifested , by the same party frequently passing »• ordeal of several practitioners , before n 8 , ' , ^! nate enough to obtain a perfect cure .

OLD PASS ' S Z . XFB PILLS . M ORE PROOFS that this noted Medicine will restore to health the afflicted , and continue in sound health the recovered . Read the following from a soldier , discharged from her Majesty ' s service as incurable , after having the advice of the most celebrated physicians : — " To the Proprietors of Old Parr ' s Pills . " Gentlemen , —I feel it a duty I owe to you and to the Public at large , t » acknowledge the astonishing benefit I have received from taking 'Old Parr ^ s Pills . ' I was for nearly nine years in the 52 ud Regiment of Foot , but vras discharged in the year 1839 as incurable , after having the best advice her Majesty ' s service afforded , being pronounced consumptive ; I then returned home to Hinckley , where my attention wad attracted to Old Parr's Pills . I was induced to purchase 2 s . ° d . box , and from that moment 1 date a renewal of my life ; for on taking one box , I immediately began to recover , and two 2 s . 9 d . boxes more completely cured me . " I am , yours most obediently , " John Osbobn . " Witness—James Burgess , Bookseller , &o . &c , Hinckley . The following extraordinary case of cure has b « e » communicated to the Wholesale Agent for Parr ' s Life Pills , at Nottingham : — Mrs . Joseph Simpson , Church Hill Close , Old Lenton , near Nottingham , has been severely afflicted for the last thirty years , with a violent cough , and difficulty of breathing . The affliction has been so severe that she could not fulfil her usual domestic obligations . She took cold when only fifteen years Id , and the cough never left her till she took Parr's Life P f Hs . She had tried almost every kind of medicine , and had taken laudanum in large quantities , but nothing afforded relief . She heard of Parr's Pills about last Christmas , and as soon a « she had taken about half a box , ehe found herself completely cured , and was never affected in the ilightest manner during the severe weather that followed , and is now better in health than she has ever been in her life . This cure does indeed appear miraculous , but for the satisfaction of the most incredulous , she has kindly consented to answer any inquiries , either by personal application or by letter , addressed " Mrs . Joseph Simpson , Church Hill Close , Old Lenton . " Two remarkable cases ( selected from man ; others ) communicated to Mr . Noble Bookseller and Printer , 23 , Market Place , the Agent for Hull . Mr . Plaxton , of Cottingham , five miles from Hull , bad long been afflicted with a most severe internal disease . So dreadful were the paroxysms that he frequently ^ xpected death was at hand to release him from tus sufferings . For a great length of time he had been unable to sit down at all , evrn being compelled to stand at his meals . His next door neighbour having heard of the virtues and unprecedented , success of " Parr ' s Pil . s , " purchased a small box for him , and en his calling for a second box , he told me that such bad been the , astonishing effects produced by one box , he was able to sit down , and on taking two other bexes , his pains have left him ; his appetite is good , and he is able to follow his vocation neariy as mil as he has ever been in his life . Mrs . Sbaw , wife of Mr . Shaw , yeast dealer , bad been for a great length of time afflicted with a severe internal disease . To use his own expression , " paying doctors for her had beggared him / ' so that at last he was compelled to send her to the Infirmary ; there she received no permanent benefit . Having heard of "Parr ' s Pills , " he purchased a small box ; ehe began to mend immediately on taking them , and two more boxes have cured kcr . She is as well as she ever was in her life . Mrs . Stephenson , of Cottingham , five miles from Hall , has been severely afflicted with a bad leg for more than ten years , and during that period has tried all kinds of medicines , but without any permanent relief .

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF j LEEDS . f \ ENTLEilEN — A Requisition has teen pre-\ 3 f sented to me from a large and influential Body of &e Electora of Leeds , calling npon me to become , a Candidate , in conjunction with . Lord Jocelyn , forj fee Representation of the Borough in the event of i o Dissolution of Parliament . The character of the Appeal wiih which I am honoured , whether I re- , gard the number or respectability of the parties t who make it , is such as will not permit me . to ! hesitate between the inclination of private feeling . * nd the diwates of public duty ; 1 , therefore , Gen- S tlemen , respectfully announce to yoa ay intention : of complying with its request . In declaring myself & Candidate fet so great an j
honour , and in purposing to undertake so heavy a responsibility as thas of watching -ever the Patiia- mentary Interests of this extensive Borougk , I , wish I could offer to yo * the benefitof Parliameatary . j * s well as Commercial Experience in the considera- ; tion of all those great "questions which so deeply ab- ; sorb the public aiind . Never kave we stood more ) in need of the ability of an energetic Government or the wisdom of aa enlightened Legislature than" at ' the present moment ; and I confess that I do not recollect the period when the depression of every br&nch of our Ccwaereial Interests has keen so appalling as it now is , nor can I conceive tuy duty so imperative upon Parliament as that of a most patient yet proaipt endeavour to devise substantial means of relief . ¦
What may be the cstase or the combination of causes which b » 3 produced this parsiysis of our commercial strength , or what may be the best means at restoring us to activity , admits of ouch discussion ., and deserves to be discussed with moderation and temper . To those who ascribe our present distress to the operation of the existing Corn Laws , I can admit thai a redBCtion and modification of the present scale of duties weald not be attended with injustice to any class of the community ; aad to the advocates of Free Trade I < an equally admit that our Commercial Code req&ires deliberate investigation , and that many obstacles which now impede the current of Trade may be removed without injury to any oiher fT-iay . fn g Interest ^ but in the pursuit of this object , I hope that England will not be compelled to abandon those exertions whkh she has so aobly begun in tearing off the hideous badge of Slavery from the human race .
Upon the sabject of tbe Poor Law , the provisions relating to what is called out-door relief appear to me to have been made by the Commissioners" in ntter ignorance of the precarious empieymeEt of a manuiacturing population , of which not oniy individuals , but masses of individuals , are , at a few days' notice , reduced from a state of industrious competency , to helpless destitution . Relief so restricted is wholly inapplicable to the wants « f the dscse population of a trading district ; besides which , there are other parts of thi 3 law that evidently require amendment . It is needless for me to dwell in this address upon my devotion to our Church , or upon the importance ¦ which I attach to the Religious Education and Moral Improvement of the Poor . It is equally needless for me to express my reverenee and admiration for all those institutions comprised within the pale of our unequalled Gjxstituuon , calculated as they are to
entail blessings upon all classes of the Community ; but I am persuaded that these blessings cannot be permanently enjoyed b y any class , or in any rank of life , onJess duo regard be paid to the means of subsistence and to the " contented labour" of the great body of the People . Whatever may be the estimation in which the policy of the present Administration has been held by its supporters , they must acknowledge that that policy cannot be successfully applied to the exigencies of the State except it be based upon ths Confidence of the Nation . They must see that this Confidents has been withdrawn ;—a general dissatisfaction with the measures of our Rulers , and ap increasing suspicion of the Honesty of their motives , are fast growing upon the public mind : I concur in these apprehensions , and should hail their removal from Ofnce as the first step to the restoration of our National Prosperity . I have the honour to be ,
Gentlemen , Youx faithful Friend and Servant , WM . BECKETT Kirksiall Grange , 8 th June , 1841 .

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF LEEDS . CS ENTLEMEN , —The honour you have done mei * \ J presenting to me the flattering Requisition I have just received , proposing that I should offer myself as a Candidate for your Suffrages as ene of your Representatives in Parliament , demands my most cordial thanks . I am fully sensible , likewise , of the additional value which is stamped on that Requisition by your having associated my name with that of your honoured Townsman , Mr . William Beckett ; and , with such a call and such a colleague , I cannot hesitate to accept joar invitaHon , and to
profess my willingness to ight with you the battle of the Constitution in this great Crisis of the public affairs . With respect to the principle on which I now come forward , I have already had some opportunity of explaining myself to you personally ; but in accepting your Requisition I am bound to state explicitly to all the Electors what those principles are . In one ward , then , the / are strict ]? Conservative ; that is to Bay , they are such as will lead me to consult the -interests , not of one class to the exc ! asion or prejudice of others , but to advance the well-being of the entire Community , adhering as closely as possible to the old Landmarks of the Constitution .
I shall not bid for your support by promising to root np and destroy every Institution that may be found to require Regulation or Improvement ; bat with due respect to the existing Laws and Usages of the Country , I would labour to peserve whatever is useful , and honestly to correct and reform whatever is amiss . As to the immediate questions which now © ccupy the public mind , I believe you will agree with me ia thinking that , however important they are in themselves , and deserving of the mo * t serious consideration of the Legislature , they do not constitute the real print at issue at this time , which is no less than the formation of an efficient Government in place of the weak Ministry which has for tbe last few and disastrous years exercised the responsibility without being able to wield the powers of the State .
That the unexampled depression of the Commercial and Financial affairs of the Country requires a searching investigation into its cause , and great wisdom and firmness in appljicg the fittest remedies , po man can doubt ; hut it is equally obvious that the indispensable preliminary to this is the formation of a strong and effective Government , wise in counsel , and possessing the confidence of so decided a majority of the Representative * of the peeple as to have the power of carrying through the measures which they zrnv daem the exigency of the times to
require . To the support of such a Government , if elected as one of your Representatives , I shall consider it my duty to render my assistance , believing entirely that it can be formed only on G ^ nservat-ve principle ^ ; and while thus seeking to accompli > h what 1 eon-ider necessary to the safety of the Cviutrj , I will address mvseif assidnoufiy to the protection and advancement of your own varied interests , and to the consideration of those great and complicated national questions * rhich involve on the ose hand the greatest extension that can ^ tly ana profitably bs made of the Minttfacurmg and Commercial Exertions of ihi 3 Country , and on the other the protection of tbe large and important int « r < -=-ts of the
Cultivators of the Sail ; the supply ofF .. od : o all classes free from the influence of Foreign Jealousy and the dangers of Foreign War ; the removal of all the harsh and needless seventy of the New P- ^ cr Law , rendering it applicable ( which at present it is not ) to the vicissitudes of the irade , aud the vran-s and eomforts of the Maaufacturing Population ; tbe mai ntenance of thegrei and truly glorious effort raa- ^ s at solaria cost by thi * Country ; o strike off the bonds of Slavery tnroughont the world ; and the extension of those means of a moral and religious . National Education which can alone insure the safety of the State and the we'i-btin *; of all Classes among our rapidly-increasing Population .
Upon these and all other subjects 1 shall be happy to afford yon every satisfaction in nay power whenever the proper period arrives for my again appearing among you , and in the meantime I ih-il rely uu the contineance of those efforts upon your part to which yon hare so generously pledged > ourselves , aad which , if continued , cannot , I believe , fail u > be crowned with the desired effect . I have the honour to be , Gentlemen , Your most obedient , humble servant , JOCELYN London , Jane 7 , 1840 .

Bat what change 1 What change is adequate to the emergencies of the case , and capable of effectually eradicating existing evils ! What change will make England and Englishmen what they ought to be ! Tarious schemes are offered by parties claiming yoor Suffrages . Which is the best 1 That is the question , the "Question of Questions , " which you m * st now decide ! As an Englishman attached to my country , and & man deairous of advancing the condition of my race , I respectfully submit my views of the means by which the honour and happiness of both would be secured . "Bejrst , and fear cot . " That is my remedy ; the foundation of my political creed .
Class Legislation , and Irresponsible Power , are opposed to this . I believe them , therefore , to be the source of our miseries— Government by and for the people , tbe only remedy . Justice to the People requires that the voice of their Representatives be heard in the Legislature which makes laws affecting their lives , means of existence , and happiness . This Justice to the People is not only compatible with , but inseparable from , the real happiness of all . I am , therefore , no
Political Partisan , nor Party Slave . My Principles are embodied in the People ' s Charter , and are admitted , by all . to be abstractedly , just ; but I hold that where Justice ia an abstractum , Injustice must be a reality . The Principles o ! the Charter would rest the Government of the Country in Men of Mature Age and Sound Mind ; the present system enfranchises and legislates for Bricks , Mortar , and Money . The former is a IMing Soul , the latter a Dead Matter Suffrage .
I am not only for the Repeal of the Corn Laves , but the abolition of all Duties upon Imports and Exports . I would make Trade as freea 3 the air we breathe , and abolishing all other Taxes , would provide the needful expences of a just Governmment by a Tax upon Property . I maintain tho right of the Unemployed Labourer , as well as the Aged and Infirm , to a subsistence from Xhe soil of his native Land ; and shall , therefore , oppose the present Poor Law as insufficient in itB provisions , as well as insulting and despotic in its administration . My opinions on other subjects I shall have an opportunity of submitting to you shortly ; in the meantime , " I assure you your Choice shall be my Qualification , your approbation my reward , and the promotion of your universal Interests my highest Happiness . I am , Gentlemen , Your Friend and Servant , JAMES WILLIAMS . Sunderland , June 12 . 1841 .

TO THE ELECTORS AND NON-ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF LEEDS . THE time has arrived when a new Government has to be formed out of the Representatives of the National Mind . In the struggle for the selection and election of such Representatives Leeds has to take a part ; and already are four Candidates , in the respective interest of tbe two great factions who have ruined our country , claimants for your " sweet voices . " To meet the usurped pow * r of faction , you have , in Public Meeting assembled , called upon me to become & Candidate for the Representation of your Borough , associating me with a noble colleague—one of Nature ' s Gemtlemen . I have great pleasure in responding to your call ; and hope to prove myself worthy of your confidence by exhibiting the incompotency of our opponents to legislate for the present enlightened race of "ignorant Englishmen .
I am a plain , blunt man ; so " ignorant , that I am not considered worthy of being trusted with the power , or even the right , of judging of the respective merits of those who plead for your Votes ; while you consider me worthy the distinguished honour of standing by their side as a Competitor . My opinion on the questions of " the Suffrage , the Ballot , and the Church , " are not" in process of formation" ! They are fully matured and confirmed . I trust , therefore , that i shall not require "drilling " to *• render " me " sufficiently acceptable to the Electors" on these points !
I am a firm and uncompromising advocate for the immediate legislative adoption of the People ' s Charter—a document draws up by Dan O'Connell , Mr . Roebuck , Mr . Hume , and others . Thi 3 measure duly provides for the just Representation of the whole People ; secures the free exercise of the Franchise ; and puts an eff : ctua , l stop to the practice of Br ibery and Corruption which now so notoriously prevails . Under its provisions the House of Commons could be no other than a true reflex of the National Mind . Belongiag to the people ; having no interest but in common with the people ; working for the people ( in Parliament if sent ) as I have hitherto worked among the people , I shall be free from the trammels of party or faction ; and shall not have to sacrifice honour , honesty , truth , consistency , and character to maintain ihe ascendency of any one set of miscreants over another . I shall never be obliged to rote that " black is white" to preserve my friends in office !!
I make no difference in the creeds of Whig and Tory . The whole ( if any ) consists in their position relatively to the two littl ' e monosyllables— " in" and " out ! " Tbe Whigs in are Tories : —the Whigs out , ar't anything th . t you wish to make them to secure their " innings ' !! As a charge has lately b * en made by the hired press against that body to which I have the honour to belong— "the Chartist-paid Missionaries , "—a word here , perhaps , may not be out place . We have been called " Trafficking Politicians . " For the
present I shall rest quietly under the charge ; but upon the day of Nomination I shall take the liberty of questioning both " the coble soldier , " and the " prostituted barrister" as to the difference of our respective callings : and I think I shall be able to show , that while I still eat the bread of honest toil , that one of my competitor- is a tool ready to be hired at go much per day for the honourable service of indiscriminate slaughter , while the other is ready to prostitute himself , for pay , to the indiscriminate support of ritfht or wrong—ihe fir ^ t comer being the object of his protection and support .
Electors and Non-Electors !— A . great and mighty change is at hand ! and it behoves us to be prepared with the proper machinery for working out tlm change . Hithc-rto ail Revolutions hare failed , because the people have cot been prepared with a new system to replace the old one ; the intermediate space between the death of one system and the establishment of another haring generally be < -n one or Physical Revojuiion , in which the paramount and general good of the people has been overlooked . To constitute a small c-j «{ in the required machinery I take to be the purpose to which you mean to apply me and ray honourable colleague sliould you elect us ; that is , wo shall -form a portion of the National Representation of the Nu ' . ional Will , reidy to act . for the Nation when society shall be convulsed , Ua iu all probability ii wiil uc ) bv the
interested struggles of the two rival factions for supremacy . Whatever danger may b-. ; consequent upon that position , I willingly undertake it ; and shall not shrink from any honourable task imposed upon rre by my Conslitutents . We are in the midst of a mighty struggle between La > 'd and Machinery . The question of the rightful and harmonious application of these two elements of production is one of psramouut importance , though few understand its bearing .-. I flatter myself that I know some little on each branch of the subject , having had practical acquaintance with both . We must return from a toD-artificial , to a more natural r t- » - ° o f 'W ' .- - " . Then will oach of these gr > -at sources of W ealth ann Happiness find its true v 3 ase in the ? = r * m nrir . n nt Society , and produce its natural results .

When I avow myself the Opponent of all Monopolies , I proclaim the advocacy of every Measure which can produce Political , Religious , and Com * mercial Freedom . I desire , by the just Extension of the Suffrage to all Classes of the Community , protected by tbe Ballot , to destroy the Monopoly of Representation by which tho few have been hitherto enabled to make Laws to the injury of the many : — -and I hold this Monopoly of Representation to be the grand source from which every other Monopoly has derived its existence and support . I desire to Establish Religious Liberty , by Abolishing Church Rates and aU Compulsory Assessments , through the means of which a man may bo required to pay for the Ministry or Ordinances of a Church with which he is not joined in commanion . I desire to establish Commercial Liberty , by
Repealing all Duties imposed for the Protection of Class Interests , amongst which I consider the Duties on Csrn to be the most grevious , oppressive , and unjust , —and rendered still more intolerable , whilst through the means of tho New Poor Law , the provision for the Poor has been curtailed , and the terms of relief rendered so hard and offensive to the honest feelings of English Independence as to induce the sufferers to submit , in many cases , to the extinction of life through want and disease , rather than humble themselves to the degrading condition of a Workhouse . By these unjust enactments , discontent has been generated , the attachment of Englishmen to the constitution of their Country baa been weakened , outrage has been the unfortunate consequence , your Jails nave been filled with Political Offenders , and under pretence of enforcing good order—the constitutional Constable has been exchanged for the
hired Policemen—the noble institutions of your Great Alfred have been cancelled—Englishmen are no longer to be the unpaid guardians of their own peace—and a body has been formed under the name of a Rural Police , for the support of which , your Taxes have been increased , and an instrument has been created , which , in the hands of an arbitrary Government , might speedily be converted into a Standing Army independent of the control of Parliament , and applied to the subversion of all the Constitutional rights of the people . My desire is to restore your country to good order , not by the continuance of imprisonments and punishments , and despotic establishments , but by such improved Laws and systems of policy as will secure the attachment of the People to their form of Government , and their obedience to the authorities of the State , by a sense of the practical benefits secured to them .
With reference to Ireland , I claim for that portion of the United Kingdom , Equal Rights , and Privileges , and Franchises with Britain , and I desire to incorporate the interests of the two Countries by the communication of mutual advantages , through the means of just and impartial principles of united Legislation . Electors and People of Rochdale , snch is an abstract of my opinions , my well considered opinions —which I have more fully explained to you at your public meetings : —I have told you also , that I will not go to Parliament to support the objects of any Party or Ministry , or any Loader , but to sustain to
the best of my judgment , by my honest votes , the combined interests of all Classes of the Community . and impressed with the evil of the lengthened duration of Parliaments , I reiterate the pledge of annually submitting my Parliamentary Conduct to the test of your decision , and if called on , at any time , by any considerable number of the voters who supported me , I promise to re-place in your hands the truss of yonr Representation . If I go into the House of Commons in a capacity to serve you , I must go there by your free , unsolicited , and unpurchased voices : —On no other terms can I consent to be your Representative .
Electors of Rochdale , I feel there are no personal grounds on which I could solicit the position of your Representative . We come together with a view of acting for the common good of oar Country : we desire , at this great Crisis , to take the best steps to promote those Reformed Systems which the National interests imperatively require . For these objeotsour connection must be founded on public virtue . Electors and Inhabitants of Rochdale , I am informed that the friends of Monopolies will attempt to make a stand against us , by mians of the power which the monopoly of the rights of voting supplies them . That they hope , by private workings and undue influences , and , above all , by creating divisions , to swamp the votes of the Liberal Electors , and defeat that power whioh would be impregnable
to their attacks if the Elective Franchise were diffused to a just extent through your Working Classes . Be on your guard , therefore . Recollect "That uuited we stand—divided we fall . " Think not of the individual Candidate , but of tbe cause , —think of your wives and families—think of your working fellow townsmen , the Non-Electors , and then ask , — will you ghe your votes in support of tho . ^ e monopolies by which the sources of employment are closed , whilst at the same time the prices of food are raised?—Electors , recollect that the more the franchise is limited , the higher are the responsibilities of those who hold it . Permit me , in conclusion , to call to your mind the memorable words of Nelson , — " England expects every man to do his duty ! " Acting upon this motive alone , I offer myself to your service .
Your faithful Servant , WM . SHARMAN CRAWFORD Rochdale , June 7 th , 1841 .

TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF BRADFORD , GENTLEMEN , —You are about to be called upon to exercise the important Trust which you hold in common with the other Electors of this Kingdom , of returning Representatives of your opinions to Parliament . Tho preseut Political Crisis is perhaps of m <"> re importance to the industrious and productive Classes of our Countrymen than any that has occurred in our history . A struggle is about to ensue between the two great Factions of the State for Political Power . —They aro so nicely balanced that it will require but a very few Independent Men in Parliament to turn the scale on whatever side is most favourable to the People .
It behoves you therefore to exercise the Elective Franchise with caution and discrimination . Have a clear understanding with the Candidates , and endeavour to return , at least , cne independent of party ; for the # reat advantage of having only a few such men in the ensuing Parliament is obvious . They all hold tht > Balanca of Power , and the cause of the People must progress . In responding to your call , it is but right that I should give you a « andid statement of my poliiical principles . They are , adopting the maxim of Bentham , to secure to the Peopie the greatest happiness of the greatest number 1 To arrive at that desirable end , I bf . Iievv . -it neci-. ssary to give to them Universal Suffrage aud increased facilities for acquiring knowledge , by a National System of Education founded on liberal and enlightened principles . I am for restoring to the People their ancient usage of electing their representatives Annually , and that they
. should be paid for their Services , believing these mea-urts to be of tho utmost importance in . securing a real Representation of tho People inParliament . by establishing , on a firm basis , that dependence of the Representatives upon the Represented , which is essential to good Government . I am also for a division of the Kingdom into Electoral Departments , depenuins ; in their divisions upon an equal amount of population , as one of the nieaus of getting a fair Representation of the People , by destroying the presem corrupt . ar . ' . i iniquitous system of permitting Boroughs with a population of 4 , 000 to exercise the same influence in the State as those containing 100 , 000 inhab tants . I am an advocate for the Vote by Ballot , not , tr ^ m princpl * , bvit expediency , looking upon i * inner uie present confined arrangement , a- ; the only ine 3 ii > of destroying the corrupt system of influence and bribery at' Elections . The for ? t ; oin s 1 consider ftri < i : iinciital principles called into existence by the inr . reasing intelligence of the
age . With regard to th ¦¦? - . ¦ U a-mresnow exciting public Discussion , I am fur . I ' oial Repeal of the Corn Laws , believing them to be an iniquitous tax upon the many for the benefit jf ih « few : and an impediment to the Extension oi' i : \< : ureat Resources of thi .= Country , her Manufacturing Industry and Capacity . I am for a Repeal uf -i '; . iLosp Laws which prevent the freest Intercoms- < r nations in their Commercial Transactions , believing < uch Restrictions to be disadvantageous to the&r ; ii ma-s of the People in this Country , and an Impe . iiiont to the Advancement of the Civilization of Mankind . I am ia favour of a Graduated Property Tax , as the fairest which can be levied , to supply the ULficiency of Revenue which might be occasioned by an aiterat . on of our Commercial Code .
I am opposed to the xsew Poor Law , considering it Unchristian and Inhuman , in bacrificing the nearest and dearest Tie > of Humanity to Political Economy . I am for the Abolition of Church Rates , looking upon them as oppressive and dishonest towards the Dissenters , in calling upon them to contribute to the support of a Structure in which they never congregate . This is the general outline of my Principles ; not taken up for the occasioa , but which I have held throughout life . I have Independence and Leisure both essential for the proper performance of the duty of a Representative of tlie People in Parliament
If you think my PiiiacipWs claim your support my time and energies are at your service ; but by ro bribery or Intoxication , ( being a decided friend to the Temperance Cat ^ e , ) wiJi I compromise my Principles , or endeavour to corrupt you . I shall then have the satisf ' acno-i , in ca .-e r . f niy Fiction cf entering upon my duties boH air . } e ' - ; r rr- iv having been returned bv Honest and Independent Electors . On the other liand , in ca ? e 1 should not be chosen by a Majority uf you , I . < ha ) i Jiavo tl . satisfaction of retiring into private life without a sicgle unpleasant feeling , but with the consciousness of having honestly offered to my supporters the
