Mr. Poulett Thomson, during hisfshing excursion
to Manchester, did us the honour of informing us that
though he condescends to receive the pay of President of
the Board of Trade, the enlightened Manchester men who
return him supply the main sources of the information which
guides him in the execution of his office. We admit that
he is profuse of panegyrics upon himself, but highly as he
estimates his own abilities, those of his constituents, he can-
didly and frankly allows, are far superior.—Lancashire
