Heb gael hyn, yr oedd y Dr. yn PCilderfyau myned i'r poll, a gadael btaenorisid y bobl, y rhai oeddynt ar bwyllgor yr larll, yn gyfrifol am y canlyniadau. Yna, y mae o bwys i ni gadw y dyddiadau golwg. Yr oedd anerchiad cyntaf larll Brecknock wedi ei ddjddio ar Medi 29, 1865, ae un gyntaf Dr. Price ar Rhag. 19, 1865 felly, yn enw pob synwyr, yr oedd yr larll "elil cael digon o amser i ddeall meddwl yr j-tholwyr, ac i anfon allan ei ail anerchiad, pe Wsai yn meddwl am wneyd hyny, cyn i Dr. j ce gyhoeddi ei anerchiad cyntaf ar Rhag. *9. Ond ein barn gydwybodol ni yw, pe na buasai Dr. Price yn dyfod i'r maes, na fuasai yr larll byth yn cyhoeddi yr ail anerchiad a'r faith yw, ei fod o'r diwedd wedi gwneyd hyn groes i deitnladau rhan fawr o'i bwyllgor, y rhai ydynt Doriaid, ac wedi bod felly am eu noes. Yn awr, er cyfleusdra i'r darllenydd, ni a csodwn yma ddau anerchiad yr larll ochr yn pchr, fel y gellir ar unwaith weled y gwahan- Jaeth rhyngddynt :— -Ldrych ar y darlun Ac ar y darlua hwn :— hwn:— To the Independent Elect- To the Electors of the Bo- ors of the Borough of rough of Brecknock and Brecknock and the town the Town of Llywel. of Llywel.

Yna, wedi cynnal cyfarfod cy- oeddus yn neaadd y dref, nos Fercher, Ion. -un o'r cyfarfodydd mwyaf poblogaidd, gwresog, bwvlus, a Uwyddiannus a fu yn Aber- honddu erioed—cyhoeddodd Dr. Price yr an- erchiad canlynol, yn rhoddi fyny fel ymgeisydd, yn herwydd ei fod yn awr yn teimlo fod yr Iarll yn deilwng o .<ael ei gefnogi yn herwydd y syniadau a ddadblygir ganddo yn yr ail an- erchiad. Dyma anerchiad diweddaf y Dr. Price — To the Independent Electors of the borowgh of Brecon and the town of Llywel. GENTLEMEN,—Since I addressed you on the 19th of December, 1865, the Earl of Brecknock, one of the candidates for your suffrages, has issued a second address, which is in marked contrast to the one published by him under date of September 29th, 1865. Whatever cause may have led to a change so desirable in itself, and so promising for the luture position of the borough, I heartily rejoice in the manliness of the Earl of Brecknock, as manifested in his address of January 8th, 1866. Lord Palmerston has finished his long career as a statesman, and T sincerely hope that his policy of expediency and vacillation has died with him. Earl Russell has pledged himself to the country that he would, on the first fitting occasion, bring forward a measure to amend the Reform Bill of 1832. That opportunity is now at hand-a Bill is under the consideration of the Government, and will be submitted to Parliament at an early day. It must, therefore, be a matter of satisfaction to the liberal electors of the borough, to learn that the Earl of Brecknock has pledged himself, in his second address, that his "support will he given to the principle of any Reform Bill which shall command the general approval of the liberal party;" and that he is prepared to support an extension of the Electoral Franchise that will embrace a better representation of the educated and working classes." I now find, by the address of January 8th, 1866, that Earl Brecknock is in favour of the Abolition of Church Rates," as a matter of justice to those who dissent from the Established Church." The declaration as to giving a firm and inde- pendent snpport to a Liberal Government" is equally distinct and clear. pendent snpport to a Liberal Government" is equally distinct and clear. Now, the line of demarcation between the two remaining candidates is broad and well defined, so that no elector need be in a doubt as to the line of policy he should pursue in the coming election. I came forward honestly and firmly to assist the advanced Liberals in saving the borough from being quietly handed over unto stale Whigism on the one hand, or worn out Toryism on the other. My object has been obtained, and therefore I respectfully withdraw, leaving a clear field to fight a battle upon ground that is now marked and in- telligible. As to the statement made by some persons in and out of your borough, that I had entered the field in the interest of Mr. Gwyn, it is but justice to that gentleman and all his friends and support- ers, and but fair towards yourselves, to say, simply, that such an assertion has not the slightest founda- tion in truth. I entered your borough as a candidate for your suffrages on the 18th December last, as inde- pendent, as honest, and as guileless as I had done in the hand of my father, for the first time, forty years ago. I might say, that those who know me, know also, that for the last twenty years of my life, I have laboured hard with honesty of conduct, by means of the press and the platform, to advocate progress in politics, and equality in religion. Gentlemen,—In leaving the field for the present, may I trust that each elector, in the coming contest, will exercise the high trust vested in him by the Constitution, honestly before God, and without fear, favour, or affection before men. May the best man win the day, and God defend the right. I have the honor to remain, Gentlemen, Your ever faithful and obedient servant, THOMAS PRICE. Rose Cottage, Aberdare, Jan. 24,1866.
