TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF PEMBROKE. GENTLEMEN, Although the Dissolution of Par- liament will not take place until nearly the close of the year, still the regretted announcements of the intended Resignation of your present esteemed Member, Jlr Bowen, and of the Retirement of Lord Ernlyn from his candidature for the representation of the County will make it necessary for you to give your attention to the selection of a Representative in the next Parlia- ment. Having received Numerous and Influential offers of Support, I have been encouraged to believe that my Services migb t not be unacceptable to you, and I there- fore venture to put them at your disposal. As I have represented Boroughs situate in your County for more than 16 years-I feel thatin forming a judg- ment of any claim to your confidence, you will be guided more by the Experience of the Past than any declaration I could make respecting the Future. It is impossible within the limits of an address to tefer to the many subjects which must occupy the at- tention of the next Parliament; One of the First Questions will probably be that of the Established Protestant Church in Ireland. I have already re- corded my vote in opposition to its proposed Disestab- lishment & Disendowment—and I still adhere to thi "Pinions expressed by that vote, though willing to ail in applying Practical Remedies to any well-proved cases of Grievance which after careful examination !nay be proved to exist. Should you confer on me the honor of electing me as your Representative in Parliament, every motive Which both a sense of duty and all social and personal eoHsiderations can inspire, would prompt me to exert Myself, to the utmost of my power, in promoting your general and local interests. J remain, Gentlemen, Your faithful and obedient Servant, J. H. SCOURFIELD. -Williamston, August Ist, 1868.
