LONDON SCHOOL BOARD- ELECTION , TO THE CITIZENS OF LONDON . FELLOW Crtr / . K'ss , — I ask you to return mo again ns ono of the City Representatives at tho Loudon School Hoard . I rest my claim to your support on the fact that throughout my life . 1 have earnestly devoted my time ami energy to the elevation and mental improvement of the very classes for whose education your School Board was called into existence . I rejoice to recognise its great services , ami to see iiow much it has already effected . It has erected , or is erecting , over 2 uo commodious and subst .. uitial schools . The total number of scholars has been double '! since tho passing of the Act . Indeed , it has laid broadly and surely the foim-1 ation of a , system which , improved as it will be , will secure cultivated intelligence to every London child . The London School Board some time ago determined that the Bible should be read , entirely unmixed with any sectarian comment . To this mode of meeting the religious ditliculty I am prepared to adhere . I am a friend to true economy . No more should be spent than is absolutely needed for the attainment of our great object . Beyond that not a farthing should be taken from the pocket of the ratepayer . Compulsion will be less and less needed every year , for the people will soon come to regard their schools ¦ with pride , aud will take n deeper interest in their children ' s progress . All statesmen aro ready to acknowledge that , iu order to maintain our prosperity in the markets of the world , we must put our working classes on an equal footing as to taste and intellectual culture with the foreign workmen with wh- m we have to compete . I rest my iiope ot being returned by you on the sacrifices I have luaiie for so many years to promote throughout the country the mental , moral , and artistic education of the English people . I therefore respectfully solicit your votes , aud have the honour to remain , Your faithful servant , JOHN BENNETT . Clieapside , 11 th October 1870 .

Schools of this description should be fostered , instead of being super .-eded by the competitive action of the Board . I am a member of the Church of England , but of no extreme views , as I respect th-j religious sympathies of my neighbours , aud regard tua Bible alone its tno basis of lieligious Instruction .

WE refer elsewhere to the two principal occurrences of the Aveek , namely , the Installation , on Monday , by H . R . H . the Prince of Wales , M . W . G . M ., of Lord Suffield as Provincial Grand Master of Norfolk in succession to the late Hon . F . Walpole M . P ., and the visit of Prince Leopold to the Provincial Grand Lodge of Wiltshire at its meeting at
the Town Hall , Warminster , on Wednesday . The two events necessarily show the deep interest which both Princes take in the welfare of Freemasonry , and cannot fail to extend the influence of the Craft throughout England . Moreover the Prince of Wales ' s visit to Norwich , whither
he was accompanied by his wife , had in view a two-fold purpose . The installation of Lord Suffield was one , the enlargement of the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital was the other . The Masonic event was a grand success , nor doubt we His Royal Highness ' s appeal on behalf of the Hospital
will be answered most satisfactorily . A large portion of the requisite sum was promised at the meeting in St . Andrew ' s Hall , and wo anticipate , from so auspicious a commencement , that the whole of the amount will be completed very shortly . We regret , however , to add that
His Royal Highness ' s visit to Lord Suffield was abruptly terminated , by the death of one of Lady Snifield ' s brothers . We beg to express our sympathy with his Lordship and Lady Suffield in their present bereavement . Extra-Parliamentary speeches have , this week , been more
numerous than for some time past . Mr . Cross , who has been on a visit to Ragley Hall , near Birmingham , opened the ball on Monday evening , when the Right Honourable Gentleman was entertained at a banquet in the Town Hall , and took the opportunity of defending the foreign and
home policy of the Government of which he is so distinguished a member . The following evening he was presented with an address of welcome by the local Conservative working men , when he expatiated at length on the services tlie ministry were rendering to the moral and
