The election addresses of the week are all rather tame,
but Mr. G. J. Cayley, who wishes to represent Scarborough, has struck out a new line. His address is a grand advertisemnt of Scarborough. He tells the electors, most of whom are interested in letting lodg- ings, that their town "is pre-eminent in its attraction among the seaside cities of the world," and destined to attract the highest per- sonages ; that it ought to have" free trade in the facilities of locomo- tion," the "speedy transmission of supplies for the mind as well as the body." "The aristocracy of wealth, fashion, and intellect are alike attracted by beauty, but retained by the amenities which spring from accomplished development of all the myriad appliances of nineteenth-century civilization." We hope Scarborough will not return Mr. Cayley, for his genius would be wasted in Parliament. He is evidently a heaven-born auctioneer.
