TO THE ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF MERIONETH. ENTLE-NIEN,-In compliance with the Resolu- G tion passed at the Meeting of the Liberal Party in this county, held this day, I come forward as a Candidate for your Suffrages at the Election of a Knight of the Shire, which must shortly take place. In expressing my unfeigned sorrow at the sad event which has so recently deprived you of a peculiarly able and trusted Representative, in the person of your late Member, I know I shall have the sympathy of all classes in the county. His great services in the cause of Political and Social Progress, for so long a period, will not readily ."be forgotten, and will yet bear their fruits. I thank you for the confidence you place in me, and should you return me as your Member, I hope always to merit it. I have always been a warm adherent to the .Liberal Cause, and believe that the Administration of Mr -Gladstone, to which I should give the heartiest support, -.is the one best calculated to govern the nation, and to adapt its institutions to the exigencies of the times. I am strongly in favour of Legislative Action on those subjects which the Government has undertaken to deal with next Session. The difficulties attending the settlement of the Liana Question in Ireland must be boldly and promptly con- fronted, and I will give my unqualified support to any measure which will deal in an equitable spirit with this pressing subject.. The question of National Education is also one winch, must be pressed on the attention of Parliament, and shall receive my most careful consideration. The great vice of Intemperance, so closely connected with the want of a more extended system of Education, is one which also requires immediate and effectual dealing with. I am of opinion that the temptations held out to the people by the vast number of places at which Intoxi- cating Liquors are sold can only be effectually removed by the restriction of the Grant of Licences within the narrowest possible limit, and I shall advocate the Prohibition of the Sale of Intoxicating Liquors on ^'Tamln favour of a Measure which shall give Protection to the Voter in the Free Exercise of the Franchise, and I know of none so likely to effect the desired result as the Ballot, which I shall, therefore, support. The position of the National Church will, no doubt, before long, be brought under the consideration of Parlia- ment and though I am of opinion her work would be better done were she unfettered by the State, yet I do not think the question of the Welsh Church should be dealt with separately from that of the Church of England. With regard to Local Interests, I can only say that a residence of more than forty years in this county may be considered as some guarantee for an acquaintance with them on my part; and should I have the honour of being returned as your Representative, it shall be my object to promote them to the utmost of my ability, both in and out of Parliament. I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, Your most obedient Servant, SAMUEL HOLLAND. Glanwilliam, Tanybwlch, 23rd December, 1869. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF MERIONETH. GENTLEMEN,—I have received from an influen- tial Meeting of ELECTORS a Requisition to offer myself as a CANDIDATE for the honour of Represent- ing you in Parliament, to fill the vacancy caused by the lamented death of your late Member. I ascribe the honour thus conferred upon me to an approval of my political opinions, and the conviction that I shall, if elected as your Representative, support those principles of true Conservatism, and of enlightened pro- gress on which, I believe, the greatness and safety of our Country depend. T As being in accordance with those principles, I should support all legislation tending to the welfare and advance- ment of the various classes of the Community; while I should oppose to the utmost of my power the attempts of those extreme politicians who would subvert the laws of property, and overthrow those institutions which have hitherto been the glory of the English Constitution. I anxiously desire to see the IRISH LAND QUES- TION settled on the basis of doing equal Justice to LANDLORD and TENANT. A M-R^-VR M* I rejoice that the subject of the EDUCATION OF THE PEOPLE has become a pressing NATIONAL QUES- TION. I should be happy to assist in the accomplish- ment of what good men of all parties must earnestly esire-the extension of the means of knowledge to all parts of the Kingdom. I hope the time will never come when religious teaching shall be excluded from our Public °should be glad to see a Measure introduced for the equalisation of the POOR RATES. I know of no reason why valuable property such as Mines and Quarries of a ertain description should be exempt from local taxation. I should support such judicious reduction of the National Expenditure as would enable the Government to lessen the Assessed Taxes which press unduly upon the Agricultural and other Classes of the Country. I should also support all just and Practical measures for the suppression of the great evil of INTEMPER- ANCE. The interest which I have taken in promoting the in- troduction of Railways into Merionethshire, and other Measures, will I hope be a proof that I hive the prosperity of the County at heart. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your faithful Servant, CHARLES J. TOTTENHAM. Plas Berwyn, Llangollen, Dec. 29th, 1869. MERIONETHSHIRE. Valuable FREEHOLD PROPERTY.

The inquest on the body of Albert Edward Johns, the child of R. Johns, tailor, of 7 Morley Street, Plymouth, who was burnt to death the previous day, was held yesterday at the Cambridge Inn, before J. Edmonds, Esq.. coroner. It was shewn that the deceased, in the absence of its mother, must have lit some matches which were on the table, and thus set fire to the room. The jury by their foreman, Mr Rolestone, in returning a verdict of 'Accidental Death,' recommended the use of Bryant and May's Special Safety Matches, which light only by friction on the box in which they are con- I tained. In this the coroner concurred." ANN JONES, DECEASED.
