BROTHER ELECTORS, SOUTHWARK. --- from Parliament ; and it is

right, therefore. that I announee to you my tmelioneed,;',.' thin of becoming a Candidate the the honourable distinction or your II T OBSERVE a movement on the part of some of the Elmo, of your Borough, in antieipatien of the retirement of oue of your present TO THETHE ELECTORS OF THE BORouG,Rpte401114,. --- wlivnever a vacancy shall have taken place, You tut. mat :minted, I believe, with my opinions ; for 1 have explained there n former occasions, and I have lived always amongst you. I am a Reformer mon:. ciple—that principle being founded upon thought and conviction—not the' disappointment, or the athedion or espeateney. I recognize no party but the pull-, that dues rightly ; and I will support the enactment of good laws, as I Woala 411, those that are mischievous, front whatevo‘r minuets they proceed or with whona,',;:, they nety origitiate; but to insure the one and Kotect us from the other, it seebn'i'„ me.that three great prineiples must be kept in view by Reformers, as the test oPa: our opinions • and he 'who tuptivocates mum this subject, or shrinks from ersbnc;; these princip'les us a rule of his political conduct, no real friend of the I • rights, and is unworthy of the supine t of any true Reformer, either in &sigma, elsewhere. Upoli these, which I take tie be leading principles, I declare repelin: plicilly, - tit l, that to carry nut und establish your liberties, it is inedspcioablethah slim Id have a Intgely+extendell stilfra 0e, not at all short of Doineltald St secondly, that you are equally entitled to perltiet indemnity from all pessibte gimlet's of your voting, by the veil or the Ballot ; and thirdly, that you nmanbai', that power over the conduct of these that represent you, which would be the inesi1e. result it the adoption of Trienttial Parliaments—beyond Wiliell term Mr the domicil or Parliament, as we leave seen in past times, responsibility is forgotten, mid must. ability ceases.

You will gather from these remarks any general opinions open every thing you tam desire to know at this moment ; Inn us a conclusion, I may add, that I am a first the most unbounded liberty of COIRCit'llee, being detelmined neiv mithless to ;ROM the rights of all, both Chin (Aimee and Dissenter; that I wish to see established gsei and tutted laws for ;di our fellow subjects, of whatever colour, or creed, or condilloa; Shut I advocate the diffusion of knowledge and education mum the broatlosi principles; and that I tam more especially to improve the temporal welfore ut the workiug porta the community, nut mile 115 a bulwark ttgaitist the aggressions or the idle and de thoughtless, but also as (he surest means of pronmting the good order, as well mm ii consolidating the freedom and happiness of society at large.
