TO THE FREEHOLDERS AND ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF BRECON. GENTLEMEN, THE present Parliament will shortly loe dissolved, and I once more venture to solicit at your hands a renewal of that confidence which you have generously reposed in me during the past ten years, and, if re-elected, you may rest assured that I shall continue to give an independent support to a Conservative Government. The great question at present before the Country is the Disestablishment and Disendowment of the Irish Church, and as it is my firm belief that such a measure, if carried into effect, will not lessen, but rather increase religious animosity and discord in Ireland, I shall give it my conscientious opposition, and especially as I also consider it the first step towards the severance of Church from State in this Realm. I am of opinion that the Administration of the Public Service might be carried on. with greater regard to economy, and therefore any measure, which may be with safety introduced into the next Parliament for the reduction of the Expenditure of the Country, and consequently of taxation, shall have my earnest and best support. I am fully alive to the necessity of an extended system of Education, but am opposed to any com- pulsory rate for that purpose. I regret that the "Metropolitan Foreign Cattle Market Bill," introduced during the last Session, was withdrawn, as I believe it would have operated as a safeguard against the danger of Cattle Plague in this Country, and at the same time have guar- anteed a supply of animal food to the consumer. I trust, however, that a similar measure will be introduced into the next Parliament. I consider the Tax upon Malt an unjust tax, and shall continue to vote for its abolition. The present Government has successfully carried a Reform Bill, by which the County and Borough Franchise has been liberally extended to classes in whose attachment to the institutions under which so much happiness and freedom are enjoyed I have the utmost confidence. Should you confer upon me the much valued pri- vilege of again representing you in Parliament, I shall endeavour, by the closest attention to your local as well as general interests, to merit a contin- uance of that confidence which you have hitherto so kindly placed in me, and which I assure you I most sincerely and highly appreciate. I have the honor to subscribe myself, Gentlemen, Your faithful and obedient Servant, GODFREY CHARLES MORGAN. Mansion House, Brecon, 25th September, 1868. [1090 TO THE INDEPENDENT BURGESSES OF THE BOROUGH OF BRECON. GENTLEMEN, THREE years since you did me the honor of Electing me to a seat at the Council Board of your ancient Borough. During that time I have endeavoured conscien- tiously to discharge the duties incumbent on the office. Should you be pleased again to return me, my constant care shall be to further the welfare and prosperity of the Town to the best of my ability. I am, Gentlemen, Your obliged and obedient Servant, HERBERT CHARLES RICH. The Watton, Oct. 20, 1868. [1134 TO THE BURGESSES OF THE BOROUGH OF NEATH. GENTLEMEN, AS the term for which we were returned as Town Councillors will expire on the 31st instant, we beg to offer ourselves for re-election' and should you again favour us with your confi- dence we will devote our best attention to the interests of the Borough.

GENTLEMEN, AS it is certain that a Dissolution of Parliament will soon take place, I avail my- self of this opportunity of informing you that it is my intention to solicit a renewal of that trust which you have for the last two years so kindly reposed in me. I have, as you are aware, supported a Govern- ment which is admitted, even by opponents, to have displayed great talent and ability in the administra- tion of the various departments of the State. The Foreign Affairs of this Kingdom have been conducted with judgment and discretion by Lord Stanley, and British influence in foreign countries much augmented. The Home Secretary, by firmness and determina- tion, has been the means of most effectually sup- pressing that evil spirit of Fenianism, which during the past winter so seriously threatened the peace and happiness of the country. The people of this Kingdom are likewise indebted to Her Majesty's Government, not only for their judicious selection of Lord Napier as Commander- in-Chief of the Abyssinian Expedition, but for all the foresight and care with which the arrangements for the supply of the Army, so necessary to secure success, were made by the Secretary of State for India. The Government also, with the assistance of Par- liament, has affected, as you are well aware, a large extension of the Elective Franchise, from which I have no doubt that the best results will ensue, and I am also satisfied that the important trust confided to you will be made use of in accordance with that just character for probity and manliness which dis- tinguishes the industrial classes of this great country. One of the first subjects that must occupy the attention of the new Parliament will no doubt be the question of the Irish Church. To its Dis- establishment and Disendowment I shall give as hitherto my conscientious opposition, being con- vinced that it will tend to the serious danger of Protestantism, and to the rights of all property, and will by no means conduce to the peace and prosperity of Ireland, which is an object so much desired by us all. I am well aware that there are anomalies in that Church which require to be redressed, and when the report of the Commission that has been sitting on the subject is published, I shall be disposed to support any well considered scheme that may be recommended by it for the removal of those anomalies. I have only to add, that should you do me the honor of again electing me as your Member-which from the very hearty promises of support I have met with during my canvass, and especially so from my new Constituents, I am sanguine enough will be the case—I will in return do, as I have hitherto done, all in my power to promote your public and private interests. I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, Your faithful and obliged Servant, HOWEL GWYN. Duffryn, 24th August, 1868. [1021 TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF BRECON AND TOWN OF LLYWEL. GENTLEMEN, HAYING now completed a Canvass of the Electors of the Borough, and of the Town of Llywel, I am able, with the liveliest satis- faction, to announce a success surpassing even my expectations, sanguine as they were. I have now only, in warmly thanking my friends, to urge them to a continuance of those exertions hitherto so conspicuously successful, and, with that continued assistance, I am persuaded that the con- test will be brought to a triumphant issue. There are some Electors whom I have been unable personally to see, but I trust that they will not attribute that inability on my part either to deficient energy or want of courtesy. I am, Gentlemen, Your faithful servant, HUGH POWEL PRICE. Castle Madoc, Sept. 17, 1868. [1066 BRECON BOROUGH ELECTION. To the Editor of the BRECON COUNTY TIMES. SIR,—A report being in circulation that I am indifferent to Mr Gwvn's success in the forthcoming contest, I iose no ti £ e in giving it the most unqualified and emphatic contradiction; though had the report been confined to the gentlemen more immediately mterested, and those who know me, I should not have thought it necessary to address you. Political consistency is, and alwajs with me has been, a sort of political pole-star, and for many reasons has produced satisfaction and pleas re- not, however, equal to the essential pleasure I felt when Mr. Gwyn entrusted to me his decision on so momentous an occasion—one where similar interests of an esteemed relative were in the opposite scale for a higher compliment than this, in the annals' of Parliamentary contests, was never conferred by one man upon another and I can only, in my opinion, properly discharge so deep an obligation by the most zealous and indefatigable exertion in his favour. I never hesitated, having no doubt as to my own part, and entertaining little as to the result of a canvass, upon an appeal to the electors; and I can now, after many weeks' canvass, declare that I most implicitly believe Mr. Gwyn will be returned as our future representative by a far larger proportionate majority than he was in 1866. I am, Sir, Yours obediently. DAVID THOMAS. Brecon, 1st October, 1868.
