Will be held in the gOMET-STRFET SCHOOLROOM, r JCHI3 (SATURDAY) EVENING, At Half-past Seven. 46115 To-. THE ELECTORS OF TIIIM UNITED BOROUGHS OF CARDIFF, COWBRIDGE, AND LLANTRISANT. Q, At the call of Her Majesty a new House of (Commons has shortly to assemble. and you are to solko there a suitable representative. Like yourselves, I regret that on account of his liealth, Colonel Stuart cannot again offer his ser- vices, but bears into private life all that heartfelt hgVd which his eminent qualitioa and services taave won for him. It was mv own intention a few months ago to alandon further service in Parliament, but at your call I changed my purpose,and placed myself M your disposal. In August last I had the honour of expoundir.g to you my political view, and receiving from three large public meetings their full, unanimous, tnd cordial approval. I used not here repeat them beyond sayinz that I am in favour of equalizing the Borough aud County Franchises lie-distributing Seats facilit. ating Voting; amending the Land Laws for the relief of the Parmer, and of the Farm Labourer; 10 ttTnonHiTig the Licensing Laws as to give rate. payers some influence; and extending the powers of Municipal Corporations. I consider that at present we do not get a suffi- cient return for our Large Expenditure on the Public Services, an. 1 I would assist any Govern- ment to make sound Reforms therein. The present Government, whiie spending money freely, have not added sufficiently to the Naval Strength of the Country, nor duly maintained our relations to other countries in this respect, I believe a Strong Navy essential to the security of oar vast Commerce, and to the safety and integrity of oar wide-spread Empire. I would support any well-considered scheme for bringing our great and magnificent Coloniea into closer relations to the Mother Country, or for improving the adminiatratiou of our Indian Finpire. In respect to Foreign Affairs, I recognise two duties. First, we shall support our own Govern. ment in it* Foreign Negotiations whenever we can do so in reason and justice second, the Govern- ment, on the other hand, while firmly maintaining our true intercut*, should avoid needless foreign qa rrels, thus ecuring to the wide realms of the Queen, Peace, which others will be slow to disturb, and Hononwhich none will find cause to ques- tion. In Foreign Affairs it is usually wise, as well ui generous, to give the benefit of a doubt to our own Government; but we have to be on our guard against mere folly and ambition. I am a warm friend to Ireland—alike in her hours of (iistre-o and of hapniness. I have often voted for Irish interests, and would gladly do so again, but at present I would not enter into any pledges that might coerce my judgment hereafter. Any tamrerin,' with the Union is, of course, out of the question. JBut, gentlemen, you have other things to regard besides Home and Foreign Politics you have the Interests, the Business, the Prosperity, and the Reputation betore the World of Cardiff itself to consider, and those likewise ot its Docks, and its tlrowing Commerce. If elected, I shall be proud to do all in my poner to promote these things, and so to act as to associate the worrlø "Member for Cardiff" with at least some of the Labours and Distinctions of the next Parliament. I am, Gentlemen, yours truly, E. J. REED. House of Common, March 9th, 18S0 45763 Jjpo THE ELECTORS OF THE UNITED BOROUGHS OF CARDIFF, COWBRIDGE, AND LLANTRISANT.

It is hardly necessary for me, having so large a stake in those Boroughs, to say that anything which conduces to their well-being and advance- ment will have my best attention. I trust that all my old friends, and many new cnes, will now rally round me.

GENTLEMEN,— In offering myself as a Candidate for the high honour cf representing your Boroughs in the Parliament shortly to be summoned. I venture to repeat to you the statement of my earnest ad. herence to the great principles of Civil and Religious Liberty, and to the Political Party which has been always foremost in the vindication of those principles. I desire to see th i consolidation of our great Empire carried out by internal development through the operation of just and wise govern- ment; and I am averse to the extension, especially by aggressive measures, of Frontiers which already require all the vigilance and the energy of a great nation to maintain them. Our numerous and widely distant Colonies and Possessions abroad, no less than the circumstances and position of tha mother-country, impose on its Government the duty of keeping up at all times a great and powerful Navy. The magnificent Harbour which adorns your neighbourhood must suggest, to those entrusted with the guardianship of its interests, the duty of doing all that lies in their power to develope its Shipbuilding facilities, and to promote the com- mercial enterprise ior which its shores are so well adapted. In this endeavour I should heartily co-operate, I desire to see measures of Local Self-Govern- ment efficiently carried out, with a due regard to considerations of economy. I am in favour of Mr Osborne Morgan's Burial Bill, and of all measures calculated, according to my view, to promote good feeling between different sections of the Christian Community, without the sacrifice of essential principles. I am desirous to see some public assistance rendered to the cause of higher Education in Wales. I shall be at all times anxious to take part in any measures calculated to benefit your Boroughs, and their inhabitants. I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, 45832 Your obedient Servant, H. G.

Brother electors, I again solicit your suffrages i. support of the Liberal cause, as represented by the political opinions of Mr Gladstone and Lord Rartington. The day of election is near at hand; let me there* fore urge every true Liberal in the County to be tip and stirring, and by combined action, shouldei to shoulder," as staunch political soldiers of the true sort, thus avenge the Liberal defeat of 1874. I hope between this and the day of Election tt address the Constituency in different parts 4of the County, and remain, Brother Electors, Yours very faithfully, RICHD. GREEN PRICE.

DAVID, 46070 173, Commercial-stieet, Newport, Agent for Messrs. Brodrick and Warmington. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF MONMOUTEL GENTLEITEN, At a grave crisis in the political history of this country we respond to a hearty invitation from the Liberals of Monmouthshire, and offer ourselves as. candidates for the representation of your County. Lord Beaconsfield has challenged the verdict of the country on his Foreign Policy, and by that Policy his Government must be mainly judged. We condemn its principles, and deplore many of its results. We are not advocates of peace at any price, but we see nothing but evil in that menacing and meddlesome influence which depends on war- like demonstrations, and has actually involved us of late in t,,o unrighteous, because unneces- sary, wars. The question is not, as the Prime Minister would have you believe, whether the "Imperial character of this realm shall be maintained. In common with all Liberals, we are prepared to uphold the integrity of the Em- pire. which Liberal statesmen have dene so much to strengthen by giving the Colonies the privi- leges of self-government, and by studying to remove every just cause of discontent in Ireland. In common with all Liberals, we claim for England —not ascendancy," indteJ, but a just share in authority in the Councils of Europe. But we conceive that England will best retain that authority, not by vain boasts of her power, still less by secret conventions and reckless annexa- tion, but rather by deserving the confidence of foreign nations, and setting them a noble example of true national greatness founded on constitu- tional liberty. The results of the opposite policy have certainly not been encouraging. If the object of the Gov- eminent was to check the aggrandisement of Russia, the result has been that Russia has ob- tained nearly all that she coveted. If their object was to preserve the integrity of Turkey, the result has been that Turkey is dismembered. If their object was to avoid encumbering this country with the protection of Christian nationalities in Eastern Europe, the result has been to encumber it with the protection, and even the military defence, of Mahomedan tribes in Western Asia, Nor is this all. By movements purporting to be defensive, but really aggressive, they have con- verted the Afghan nation from a natural ally into a deadly enemy, and have vastly increased both the cost and the responsibility of Colonial Govern- ment in South Africa. Experience has ever shown that what is called a spirited Foreign Policy," means a feeble and reactionary Home Policy. Certain reactionary projects of Lord Baaconsfield's Government were happily defeated by the Liberal Party. Its Home Policy has since been almost a blank, and nothing whatever is promised for the future. An exten- sion of the County Franchise—a thorough revision of the Laws regulating the descent, tenure, and transfer of land-a comprehensive reform of County Government and Local Taxation-a settlement of the Burial question on the basis of religious equality—these are measures which may be expected from a Liberal Government, and from a Liberal Government alone. Such measures, to- gether with all others which may conduce to moral, social, or material progress, will receive our warmest support. We observe that leading members of the pre- sent Government look forward to an early reduc- tion of the national expenditure, and we gladly agree with them. It will be reduced when an economical Ministry succeeds the present extrava- gant Administration-then. and not before. It is vain to expect economy from a Conservative Government, and especially from one which is pledged to a policy of restless Imperialism. Its sympathies will always be with the consumers, rather than with the producers, of taxes its tra- ditional prejudices are opposed to retrenchment in the army, navy, and civil service; and its par- tiality for class interests renders it incapable of resisting the manifold temptations of jobbery. It it is, therefore, no matter for surprise that the present Chancellor of the Exchequer, having inherited a surplus of six millions from Mr Glad- stone, should bequeath to his successor eight millions of accumulated deficits, to remain for the next five years as a burden on the National FinanceR. For the means of clearing off this heavy liability, we must look to a revival of trade, following on the adoption of a less wasteful policy at home, and a less ambitious policy abroad. Such,Gentlemen, are the principles which we, if elected, should endeavour to support, in a spirit of moderation and independence, but as loyal mem- bers of the Liberal Party. It is hardly needful to add that we should regard the interests of this county as possessing a special claim to our atten- tion. We regret that it will be impossible for u» to visit most of the electors personally, but we hope to have opportunities of stating our views more fully at public meetings. Let us earnestly im- press upon you, in conclusion, that union is strength, and that, under the protection of the Ballot, the vote of the humblest elector is his I own. It is our desire to conduct the contest without bitterness, on strictly public grounds, and no effort shall be spared on our part to deserve the confidence which you may repose in us. We are, Gentlemen, Your obedient servants, GEORGE C. BRODRICK. MARSHAL WARMINGTON. Liberal Committee Room, Newport, 18th March, 1880.. 45958 TO THE ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF MONMOUTH. GENTLEMEN,— Her Majesty having graciously determined that the present ParlianJent should shortly be dissolved, I take the earliest opportunity of announcing my intention to offer myself as a Candidate for re-election, and I trust that I may receive your cordial support.

FJIO THE FREEHOLDERS AND ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF MONMOTTTIL GENTLEMEN,— A Dissolution of Parliament having been announced, and Lord Henry Somerset having signified his intention of retiring from the position which he had so Ion?, with honour and faithful zeal, occupied as one of your representatives, I, born, bred, and living amongst you in our favoured county, have, in compliance with the request made to me in November last, deter- mined to offer myself as a Candidate for the honour of representing you and your varied interests in the House of Commons. I am a Con- servative, and I believe that my Conservatism is cherished and inherited by the prudent, upright, honest farmer, and by the artizan, collier, miner, who has by his industry and sobriety acquired his comfortable cottage, with its home blessings. Each man of such a type is as conservative in his heart as I am. I have been born in an age of progress—that which was wise law fifty years ago may not be so now-therefore I should always encourage pro- gress, when progress is proved to be desirable. I am a member of the Church of England, and in favour of retaining the existing relations be- tween Church and State, which insure a Church for the poor, and yet leave every man free to worship according to the dictates of his own con- science. I am fully sensible of the great trials and diffi- culties with which Agriculturists have had to contend for several years, and I am convinced that a fair and proper readjustment of Local Taxation should be made, and one of our first thoughts should be to relieve the land from the unfair and heavy burthens imposed upon it. I trust the Report of the Royal Commission will result in some useful legislation in this respect. I believe the principal attack upon the Govern- ment has been based upon its Foreign Policy, but I am sure any thoughtful man, carefully and impartially considering the event? of past years, must acknowledge that the course pursued by Her Majesty's Ministers (considering the difficult position in which they have been placed) has been, upon the whole, a wise one, and one which has not only tended to promote the peace of Europe, but has also regained for England a position of dignity and influence. I trust that Trade in our Mining Districts may continue to improve, smd that more prosperous times are dawning both upon Agriculture and Commerce. I, therefore, now offer my services to you, and if I obtain your confidence I need hardly say what pleasure it will always afford me to do all in my power to advance the interests, the welfare, aud the happiness of my native county. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your faithful servant, JOHN ALLAN ROLLS. The Hendre, March 10th. 1880. 45857 grwatt (ttmnty TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE 1 COUNTY OF BRECON. GENTLEMEN, For the third time, I appeal to you for the favour of your Votes in the Election for the County of Brecknock. Six years have elapsed since you first honoured me by a support of so spontaneous and substantial a character, that in the following year I ventured again upon a contest which, by your cordial co- operation, I was enabled to bring to a successful issue. During these years the Government of the coun- try has remained with the Conservative party, and the constituencies are now summoned to de- clare whether or no they will renew the trust which they placed in their hands. It is almost beyond the region of dispute that many measures to meet the requirements of our social and political system have received but scant attention, and we have a right to demand the reason of such apparent indifference. It has been the contention of the Government that the complications which have arisen in our relations with foreign countries have imposed upon them the necessity of deferring the settlement of questions which affect the well-being of the people of this country. It is my belief that the difficulties of the East- ern Question, which I am not disposed to under- rate, have been increased and intensified by a want of toresight and by a spirit of alternate recklessness and vacillation (on the part of Minis- ters) most injurious to the interests of the nation, A new system of Obstruction within the House of Commons during the last Parliament has reached such dimensions that it cannot fail to reflect discredit upon those in whose hands alone to a great extent lay the power of restraining it. From the commencement of my political con- nection with this county, I have endeavoured to make know n my opinions from time to time in various parts of the constituency. I shall doubt. less have opportunities during my candidature of satisfying the minds of those who may be in doubt as to my views on questions in which they may be specially interested. I appeal now for your support, on the ground that I have not betrayed the confidence you placed in me, and that I have remained stedfast to those great principles of civil and religious liberty which are the inheritance of the Liberal party, and which will ever form the ground-work of my political faith. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your faithful Servant, W. FULLER MAITLAND.

I beg once more to place my services at your disposal. Having had the honour of representing you in t\\ o successive Parliaments for a period of rather more than eleven years, any lengthened exposition of my political principles is, I trust, unnecessary; I would merely say, they are unchanged: they are the same as they were in 1868, when you first did me the honour of electing me they are the same as they were in 1873, when you re-elected me as your member. And now, when I again solicit your suffrages, I can only say, that should you still deem me worthy of your trust and confidence, my action in the future will be the same as it has been in the past.

Since you returned me to Parliament I have endeavoured to be faith. ful and diligent ia my efforts to advance your interests, and to support tiie opinions and policy in which you believe. If re-elected by you, I will continue to devote my best energies to your service, and to the advocacy of those principles of political justice—of civil and religious freedom- of peace, retrenchment and reform, which dis- tinguish the Liberal Party in this country. My views on the political questions of the day are well known to you from my votes and public addresses. I need not recapitulate them here. I have followed the lead of Gladstone, Bright, Hartington, and Henry Richard and I intend to take these friends of the people as mv suides in the future. The local interests of your Boroughs and the industries which are carried on in them shall re- ceive my special attention. As a Representative of a Constituency largely composed of the work- ing classes, I should watch over and advocate the fair claims of labour. I invite you to give me your assistance in pro- moting my return, a-id to do justice to the earnest desire that I have, faithfully to serve you.

I beg also to tender my sincere thanks to many other friends who have urged me to offer myself as a candidate on this occasion, and who, un- solicited, have given me their cordial support. The views I have during an active life main. tained in your neighbourhood are so well known, that I deem it unnecessary to say more than that n all matters, whether civil or religious, I shall follow an enlightened Liberal Policy, Having now such a large personal interest in the Iron and Tin Plate Trade at Llanelly, an4 feeling that its future and the Export Trade of South Wales may be greatly made or marred by the legislation of the next few years knowing also that my interests are identical with your own, I have decided to respond to your call. Should I be returned as your Member, you may rely upon my doing my utmost to make the practi- cal knowledge I have of the Metal Manufactures of this country, and my experience in local public affairs, useful in promoting the moral, intellectual, and social, as well as the political and pecuniary welfare of my countrymen. I trust you will give me your earnest support at the Poll. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient Servan., J. JONES JENKINS.

ULNTLEJIKN, A Dissolution of Parliament having been announced, I now place my services at your dis- posal in compliance with the unanimous request made to me at the large and representative Meeting of Liberals held at Carmarthen in Octobe. last. Believing that the internal welfare and the ex- ternal independence of the Country has been seriously damaged by the acts &f the present Government, I will, if elected, loyally support the general policy of the Liberal Party, to whose wise measures our country owes so much of its pros- perity and greatness, its Civil and Religious Liberty. My Watchwords are Peace, Retrenchment, and Reform, as being singularly applicable to the present crisis, when the warlike and intermeddling policy of the Tory Ministry has produced dis- quietude and distrust at home and abroad, whilst its extravagance and financial incompetence have greatly interfered with the material interests of the country. Connected as I am with land, I, have naturally marked with regret the depression of the Agricul- tural Interest, and any measure that might be introduced in order to give greater security to Tenants for the outlay of their capital, would meet with my hearty support. The simplification of the Sale and Transfer of Land would, in my opinion, greatly benefit both Landlord and Tenant. Feeling that the inhabitants of the Counties are deprived of their just share in the election of their representatives, I am prepared to vote for. the Equalization of Town and County Franchise. I think the ratepayers who contribute so largely to the County Stock should have control over its expenditure through elected County Boards. In Local matters it has ever been my aim to support all projects tending in my way to pro- mote the prosperity of this and the adjoining Counties and if returned as one of your repre- sentatives, rest assured that my interest in tnese matters will be, if possible, increased. I shall be unable to wait upon you all person- ally in the short time wh!ch now remains before the election, I beg therefore to solicit your vote and interest.

Having so recently addressed many public, meetings in the county, and having had my speeches so fully and ably reported in the papers, I feel it is unnecessary tor me now to enter into my views at length. I am a true and sound Liberal, and I shall always consistently give expression to, and act upon, those principles which long guided the destinies of this country previous to the disastrous advent to power of the present Government. I firmly believe that a return to those principles will herald the restora- tion of prosperity to the dominions of Her Majesty the Queen. If, as I am confident you will, you return me as your representative, it will be my constant'care to contribute to the reduction of the burdens which now press so heavily upon the people, aad par- ticularly upon those engaged in Agricultural aud Mining Pursuits. The restoration of prosperity to this country is indispensable to the full development of the vast in., terests of the British Empire, the safe guarding and development of which are very dear to the heart of the Nation.
