.COCKERMOUT11.—A. Green, Esq., a relative of Mr. Curwen, of Workington, has addressed the electors. He says—" Parliament will, I hope, be very different from what it has been. It will not be a place where gentlemen of fashion may go merely to hear news and seek amusement, or where the connexions of aristo- cratical families may go to obtain payment for public services never performed. It will be simply a place of national business, as it ought always to have been. A due attention on it will be an anxious and a laborious duty, for the faithful dis- charge of which every member must seek his reward only in the approbation of his constituents. I have lived so long iu Coekermouth, that my political opi- nions are probably not unknown to you. I have been for many years reproached for being a Jacobin, a leveller, and a radical, as each of these several terms of in- tended reproach successively came into use. I have, in fact, always been a Re- former, and I have now great satisfaction in seeing that change for which I have

long wished about to take place."

Some • statement may be expected from me relative to the Reform Bill; and this no motive of petty policy shall induce me to withhold. I conceive the principle of that measure to be just and salutary; and the changes proposed have never ap- peared to me to possess that wild and revolutionary tendency which has been imputed to them."
