spirit, in no ilneral•minded manner, but I will discharge
it as best becomes the representative of a large and im-
portant ward like this, for the ge. eral interests of the
ward. and the interests of the town generally. (Cheers.)
I am happy to say that this contest has been carried on
with excellent good feel ng. I have nothing to czmplain
of my opponent, and, on the other hand, I am proud of
the spirit with which you have conducted and car
ried this election this day. There have been
no personalities, and there ought not to b 3 —(bear, hear);
—and I hope that, after this day, the excitement which

again carry the ward which their friend, Jim Bro called
the "Rock of Gibraltar of the Tories." (Laughter and

exertions you need rest and quiet. In conclusion,
kowever, allow me to return thanks to the committee

because I know very how pawerful an influence has
been been brought to bear by the m, the ladies in this

therefore beseech you gewlernen, that you will not let the
issue cf this struggle be ..u!lied by any attempt on the part
of any of you, individually or collectively, to viAate the
majesty of the law. Go to your homes, to those happy
English homes, proverbial as the centres of comfort and
of peace. If any ana,' ey feeling has been excited to-day, I
pray you let it fade from y ur minds as if it never had
arisen. Gen lemer, I have only 'o bid you for the present
farewell. To each and all, to the poorest as well as to the
richest of you, I shsll ever be accessible, and shall only be
too hapl,y to listen to any suggestion, come from what
quarter it may, which may advance the interests of the
town in general, or the interests of Ambercromby Ward
in particular. (Loud cheers.)
