TO THE ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF
LONDON.
Those electors who have this day recorded their votes in favour of
Lord John Manners have taken advantage of the opportunity thus
afforded to them to do all that in them lay to uphold the integrity of
the British Constitution and the dignity of Parliamentary election.
•Therhave declared among other things, by those votes, that they
believe it to be an unfit and disrespectful answer to the Queen's
writ to return to the Douse of Commons a Member legally disquali-
fied to sit there, who has already proved that disqualification by his
own acts, and whose return, therefore, is nothing less than a nulli-
fication of the representation of the people, so far as that seat is
concerned. Of the disadvantages of a contest carried on with the
help of long previous organization on the one side and none at all on
the other we need not speak. Ulterior proceedings must then show
whether such an anomalous and unprecedented state of things as
this election presents can be suffered to remain.
On behalf of Lord John Manners' Committee.
RUSSELL ELLICE, Chairman.
FRANCIS WILSON, Deputy-Chairman.
